Assessment of the Quebec north shore (division 4S) herring stocks in 2018.: Fs70-6/2019-037E-PDF

"Since 1992, the herring fishery on the Quebec North Shore (NAFO Division 4S) has been managed by a preventive Total Allowable Catch (TAC) of 4,000 t due to the lack of scientific information to establish a formal TAC. This TAC is assigned in whole to the different fishing fleets and to all catches, without distinction between the two spawning groups. Between 1984 and 2010, herring landings were, on average, 476 t per year. Catches have increased significantly since 2011 and are on average at 3,515 t"--Context, page [1].
