2024 is shaping up to be a booming season for GSO's, pushing the GSO Project reports over 2,500! Even with the species being tracked that we know are not necessarily Gulf-Stream dispersed including Needlefishes and Striped Burrfish, this year appears to be quite robust. Several species appear to have significant increases in reports, potentially beyond an underlying increase in reporting effort and iNaturalist activity. One species that seems to stand out for a reporting spike and anecdotally amongst those in the field is the Short Bigeye, P. alta, a species that already has more than 60 sightings in 2024 we many weeks of warmer water temperatures remaining.
