Status of the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) stocks of Lomond River, Torrent River and Western Arm Brook, Newfoundland, 1999 [electronic resource] / C.C. Mullins and D. Caines. Ottawa : Fisheries and Oceans Canada, 2000. 40 p. : fig., graphs, maps, tables. Canadian Stock Assessment Secretariat research document, 1480-4883 ; 2000/038 Includes bibliographical references (p. 16-17). Returns of small salmon to Lomond River were 42% higher than in 1998 and 8% higher than the 1992-98 mean. Returns of large salmon were the third highest on record and 46% higher than the 1992-98 mean. Returns of small salmon to Torrent River were 19% less than in 1998 and 10% lower than the 1992-98 mean. Returns of large salmon in 1999 were 46% less than in 1998 and 13% less than the 1992-98 mean. Returns of small salmon to Western Arm Brook were 39% less than in 1998 but 10% higher than the 1992-98 mean. Returns of large salmon were 82% less than in 1998 and 50% less than the 1992-98 mean. Returns of both small and large salmon to all three rivers were higher than the 1984-91 means indicating improvements in the stocks since the commercial salmon fishery moratorium. The proportion of large salmon was higher than the 1984-91 mean on all three rivers. It is highly unlikely that the conservation requirement was not achieved on any of the three rivers in 1999. gccst Fisheries resources gccst Salt water fish gccst Fishing area gccst Fisheries management Caines, D.
