Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) stock status update in Newfoundland and Labrador for 2014 .: Fs70-7/2015-023E-PDF
The stock assessment of Atlantic Salmon (Salmon salar) in the Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Region is conducted every five years, with the most recent assessment completed in 2013 (DFO 2014). An annual update of the stock status is prepared in interim years to provide information to Fisheries Management and the general public. Indicators of adult and juvenile (smolt) Atlantic Salmon stocks are derived from data collected at monitoring facilities and fisheries catch statistics, which are summarized in this report. Three of the four (75%) monitored rivers in Labrador and five of the 10 (50%) in Newfoundland did not achieve conservation egg requirements (CER) in 2014.
