An assessment of American Lobster (Homarus americanus) in Newfoundland in 2012 / E. Coughlan ... [et al.].: Fs70-5/2015-057E-PDF
These stocks were last assessed in 2009 and are currently scheduled for assessment every three years. The present assessment of these stocks was requested by Fisheries Management to provide current information on the status of the resource and provide the data to be used in the updated Integrated Fisheries Management Plan (IFMP). Consequently, a Regional Peer Review (RPA) Process was held May 15-16, 2013. This document provides the methodology and analysis for the assessment of LFAs 3-14 which were assessed based on four regions that are a geographical grouping of the LFAs into the Northeast region (LFAs 3-6), Avalon region (LFAs 7-10), South Coast region (LFAs 11-12) and West Coast region (LFAs 13-14). The key indicators for the assessment are reported landings, nominal effort, catch per unit effort (CPUE), size frequency distributions and survival rate indicators based on molt class ratios.
