Reconstructing the offshore Pandalus jordani trawl fishery off the west coast of Vancouver Island and simulating alternative management policies / Steven Martell … [et al.].: Fs70-1/2000-149E-PDF

This paper provides protocol and decision-making criteria in order to manage the WCVI shrimp trawl fishery and determines the thresholds at which point there would be no harvesting or harvesting would be discontinued. As a measure of management "success" two alternative objective functions are used to evaluate policy options: 1) Long-term yield, 2) Log-Utility function. A long-term yield approach operates to maximize the total catch over a specified time period, whereas the log-utility approach operates to maximize annual catch.
