Analysis of stock size and yield of Fortune Bay herring / by G.H. Winters and J.A. Moores.: Fs70-8/77-29E-PDF

"Traditionally Fortune Bay, on the south coast of Newfoundland, has been one of the main centers of the Newfoundland herring fishery with catches averaging about 16,000 tons during the period 1945-50 (Templeman 1966). Annual catches declined to less than 700 tons during the period 1954-66 but with the advent of purse-seining in 1966 landings of Fortune Bay herring increased rapidly to nearly 14,000 tons in 1968 and remained at high levels until 1973 when landings dropped to less than 3300 tons (Table 1)"--Introduction.
