Évaluation du saumon de l’Atlantique (Salmo salar) de la zone de pêche au saumon 16 du sud du golfe du Saint-Laurent, 2013 Ottawa : Fisheries and Oceans Canada, 2015. v, 36 p. : fig., graphs, maps, tables. Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat research document, 1919-5044 ; 2015/049, Gulf Region "December 2015." Includes bibliographic references (p. 10-12). Of the 39 Atlantic salmon rivers in Salmon Fishing Area (SFA) 16, the Miramichi River is the largest and accounts for over 90% of the juvenile rearing habitat in SFA 16. Annual returns of adult salmon to the Miramichi River were monitored at estuarial trapnets and their abundance estimated with a mark and recapture experiment. The proportion of the conservation requirement attained was determined after accounting for the number of large (≥63 cm) and small (<63 cm) salmon harvested and lost from aboriginal and recreational fisheries. Reliable catch and harvest information from the recreational and aboriginal fisheries remain a significant constraint to the assessment of Atlantic salmon in SFA 16 and precludes any rigorous evaluation of current or potentially new management scenarios for these stocks. gccst Fisheries resources gccst Salt water fish gccst Fishing area gccst Fisheries management Douglas, S.
