Commercial license activity and landings of rainbow smelt (Osmerus Mordax) in statistical districts 63-67 (Chaleur Bay, New Brunswick) during Fall 1996 and Winter 1997 / by A. Locke, R. Bernier and F....: Fs97-6/2264E

In this report, we present the result of a telephone survey of 1996-97 commercial smelt landings and fishing effort in Chaleur Bay, New Brunswick and adjacent waters (statistical districts 63-67)... Results of this telephone survey provide estimates of current commercial harvest levels, license activity and trends in smelt abundance, as perceived by the fishers. We are also interested in determining whether there is a consistent relationship between the telephone survey results and catches summarized from purchase slips.--Page 1
