Sentinel surveys 1995-1999 : catch per unit effort in NAFO divisions 2J3KL / D. Maddock Parsons, R. Stead, D. Stansbury.: Fs70-1/2000-102E-PDF

Sentinel enterprises collected catch rate and biological information on inshore cod resources in 2J3KL for 1995-1999. Data were presented on weekly catch rates and annual relative length frequencies (number at length divided by amount of gear) by year and gear type, grouped by division and also summarized for each participant. Catches in 2J have remained very low since 1995 in all gears fished. Gillnet catch rates from Sentinel survey activity in 1999 declined from levels observed in 1998, which were generally the best observed since the inception of the surveys in 1995. Gill net (5 ½") catch rates in 1999 were lower in 3K than in 3L but line trawl catch rates were similar. Line trawl catch rates were similar in 1999 to those in 1998 but lower than the highest catches observed in 1997. Trap catches were down in all areas in 1999, with only one trap site having a noteworthy catch.
