Framework assessment of the offshore American lobster (Homarus americanus) in Lobster Fishing Area (LFA) 41 / Adam M. Cook, Manon Cassista Da-Ros, and Cheryl Denton.: Fs70-5/2017-065E-PDF
“The Lobster Fishing Area (LFA) 41 offshore Lobster fishery has been active since the early 1970s and is currently the only Total Allowable Catch (TAC) based Lobster fishery in Canada. The TAC has been set to 720 t since the mid-1980s without change, despite increases in survey biomasses. The fishery currently has 8 licenses, which are owned by a single corporation and are fished from a single vessel. This stock assessment framework updates that of Pezzack et al. 2015 by exploring the impact of stock boundaries on indicator trends as well as expanding the suite of indicators used to describe the ecosystem and Lobster stock and exploring options for defining stock status and reference points"--Abstract, p. v.
