Assessment of redfish stocks (Sebastes Fasciatus and S. Mentella) in units 1 and 2 in 2015 .: Fs70-6/2016-047E-PDF

"The Redfish fishery in Units 1 and 2 (Gulf of St. Lawrence and Laurentian Channel) targets two Redfish species, the Deepwater Redfish (Sebastes mentella) and the Acadian Redfish (Sebastes fasciatus). These two species share morphological similarities and their ranges overlap. However, they have different life histories, particularly in terms of reproduction and recruitment mechanisms. Units 1 and 2 contain a single biological population of each species and they are assessed separately. Combined landings of both species and both units have dropped from over 100,000 t in the 1970s to less than 10,000 t since 2004."--Context, p. [1].
