2015 Lobster stocks assessment in the Gaspé, Quebec area (LFAS 19, 20 and 21) .: Fs70-6/2016-043E-PDF
"High abundance, productivity and landings indicate that the Gaspé lobster stock is in good condition and in the healthy zone according to the precautionary approach. In recent years, indicators have remained the same or improved based on prevailing environmental conditions and exploitation levels. However, in Area 20, the small average size of commercial lobsters and the high exploitation rate suggest that reducing fishing effort must be pursued"--Conclusion, p. 12.
