Scallop fishing area 29 : stock status and update for 2015 / J.A. Sameoto ... [et al.].: Fs70-5/2015-067E-PDF

This document summarizes commercial fishery, research survey, and observer data for the 2014 fishery, as well as provides advice for the 2015 fishery. A science update was scheduled for SFA 29 West in 2015; however, due to observations from the science survey in 2014 that the extremely high year class which prompted the closure of subareas C and D in 2014 was very much diminished, a full assessment has been triggered. A summary of lobster and all other bycatch recorded by observer coverage is provided. The scallop fishery in this area was last assessed in 2014.
