Assessment of northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) in shrimp fishing areas 4-6 (NAFO divisions 2G-3K) and of striped shrimp (Pandalus montagui) in shrimp fishing area 4 (NAFO division 2G) .: Fs70-6/2015-018E-PDF

Resource status of Northern Shrimp in Shrimp Fishing Areas (SFAs) 5 and 6 was updated based on DFO fall multi-species trawl survey data (1996-2014). Resource status for Northern Shrimp and Striped Shrimp in SFA 4 was updated based on Northern Shrimp Research Foundation (NSRF)-DFO summer trawl survey data (2005-14). Trawl survey data for SFAs 4-6 provided information on shrimp distribution, length frequencies, and biomass. Trends in fisheries performance were inferred from total allowable catch (TAC), commercial catch to date, fishery catch per unit effort (CPUE) and fishing patterns.
