The population structure of witch flounder in ICNAF subdivision 3Ps / by W.R. Bowering.: Fs70-8/79-13E-PDF

"The main fishery for witch in Subdivision 3Ps is on the southwest slope of St. Pierre Bank generally as a by-catch of directed fisheries for cod, redfish and, to a lesser extent, American plaice. There is a more directed fishery for witch in Fortune Bay by Danish and Scottish Seiners fishing in the deep muddy bottom at the mouth of the bay. Although this is usually a small portion of the total catch, it usually contributes substantially when total landings for the year are less than 1000 tons"--page [1].
