An examination of the status of the Newfoundland west coast herring stock / by J.A. Moores, G.H. Winters, and C.I. Barbour. : Fs70-8/81-9E-PDF
"During the past five years catches from the Newfoundland west coast herring stock have risen steadily reaching almost 19,000MT in 1980. While the purse seine catch has remained stable for the past few years the gillnet component continued to show some expansion. The catches from both spawning components were dominated by age-groups 11+ indicating that recent recruitment has not been exceedingly strong. The only exception being the 1974 year-class of spring-spawners which is estimated at 1/4 the strength of the 1968 year-class."--Abstract.
