Resource status is evaluated based on trends in fishery catch per unit of effort (CPUE), exploitable biomass indices, recruitment prospects, and mortality indices. Data are derived from multi-species bottom trawl surveys in Divs. 2HJ3KLNOP, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) inshore trap surveys in Divs. 3KLPs, fishery data from logbooks, observer catch-effort data, industry-DFO collaborative trap survey data, as well as biological sampling from multiple sources.
