Status of Atlantic salmon stocks, Gulf Region, Newfoundland and Labrador, 1986 / by J.L. Peppar and C.C. Mullins. : Fs70-8/87-4E-PDF
"Commercial landings of 1SW and MSW salmon exceeded levels recorded in 1985 and 5- and 10-year means (only exceptions being 2SW salmon landings in statistical area M and MSW salmon landings in statistical area 0[50]). Harvests of 1SW and MSW salmon hook and releases, though, were below 5-, 10-, and 15-year means. Adult salmon escapements at counting fences and fishways in 1986 were dramatically above 1985, reversing some declining trends apparent over the past few years. Smolt counts at counting fences in 1986 were also above 1985; smolt replacement from Western Arm Brook was the second highest recorded. Overall increases observed in commercial landings, recreational harvests and hook and releases, and adult counts in selected rivers in the Gulf Region, Newfoundland and Labrador, in 1986 suggest that abundances of salmon, particularly 1SW salmon, were above 1985. Based on high 1SW salmon levels observed in1986, a greater abundance of MSW salmon should be observed in 1987"--Introduction, page 4.
