Abstract: This note provides information on the reproductive ecology of littoral fishes in a large, southeastern reservoir dominated by hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata). Larval and juvenile fish assemblages were monitored for 3 years to document spatio-temporal patterns of abundance within hydrilla beds, and habitat preferences of young-of-the-year fish among different groups of aquatic plants were evaluated. Abundance of larval sunfishes was related to year-class strength among years of differing hydrilla coverage.
