Pacific hake - Strait of Georgia stock assessment for 1999 and recommended yield options for 2000 [electronic resource] / M.W. Saunders and G.A. MacFarlane. Ottawa : Fisheries and Oceans Canada, 1999. 11 p. : fig., graphs, tables. Canadian Stock Assessment Secretariat research document, 1480-4883 ; 99/200 Includes bibliographic references (p. 5-6). The fishery in the Strait of Georgia decreased substantially to 3,996 t in 1998 from 6,561 t in 1997, a result of low market demand. Age and growth data continue to indicate strong recruitment during the 1990's and a coincidental decline in the mean size-at-age. Yield options remain unchanged from the previous assessment with a range of 7,554-14,687 t. Due to uncertainty in the current assessment, including evidence of increasing seal predation it is recommended that managers choose a quota from the lower half of the yield range. gccst Fisheries resources gccst Salt water fish gccst Fishing area gccst Fisheries management Canada.
