Review of the white hake, Urophycis tenuis fishery in NAFO division 4T / by K. Metuzals and A. Fullerton. : Fs70-8/81-49E-PDF

"Historical catches were analyzed from 1960-1980. Catches in recent years have increased substantially and in 1980 especially, have exceeded any recorded levels. Research vessel data are presented from 1970-1980. No ageing material is available at this time. Estimates of total population in numbers and biomass, as well as mean number per tow and mean weight per tow do not indicate a large increase in hake abundance. Increase in catch therefore must be attributed to increased inshore effort"--Abstract.
