Where have all the herring gone? : the continued decline of the southeast Newfoundland herring stocks / by J.A. Moores, G.H. Winters, and E.L. Dalley. : Fs70-8/81-75E-PDF

"The northeast coast of Newfoundland encompasses two herring stock areas: (1) Fortune Bay, and (2) St. Mary's-Placentia Bays. Catches from these stocks have declined markedly. In 1981 the total catch of herring in Fortune Bay was 64 mt with 650 mt being taken in Placentia and St. Mary's bays. In both areas the catch was below the TAC level ... The stocks in both areas have continued to decline and with the current pattern of poor recruitment, the decline is expected to continue at least for the near future"--Abstract.
