An analysis of the witch flounder stock of ICNAF Subdivision 3Ps / by W.R. Bowering.: Fs70-8/77-17E-PDF

"The fishery for witch in ICNAF Division 3Ps began in Fortune Bay in the early 1950's. This fishery was made up primarily of Danish seiners with catches averaging 500-700 tons annually. Catches were reduced drastically for 1955 and the seiners were forced to move elsewhere. Although some Danish seining is still carried out in Fortune Bay, most witch in this area are caught by synthetic gillnets"--Introduction, page 1.
