Flatfish 4VWX : update of the status in 1979 of : American plaice, yellowtail flounder, witch flounder, winter flounder, Atlantic halibut and Greenland halibut / by K.I. Metuzals. : Fs70-8/80-36E-PDF

"Landings from Quebec, Newfoundland and the Maritimes were analyzed for 1979 for plaice, yellowtail, winter and witch flounders. Commercial catch per unit of effort indices (catch in kilograms per hour) using the Chikuni index for otter trawlers tonnage class 4 (150-500) were also calculated. These, as well as research CPUE, indicate that although there is evidence of stock fluctuations, the total biomass is relatively stable and will continue to support the present fishing pressure"--Abstract.
