An assessment of Arctic charr stocks in Voisey Bay, Anaktalik Bay, and Okak Bay in 1984 with stock projections for 1985 / by J. B. Dempson and L. J. LeDrew.: Fs70-8/85-12E-PDF

"Voisey Bay and Anaktalik Bay Arctic charr stocks have been under quota management since 1979. A quota was applied to the Okak Bay stock beginning in 1981. Total allowable catches for Voisey Bay, Anaktalik Bay, and Okak Bay stocks in 1984 were 16 t, 8.2 t, and 27 t respectively. Total landings in 1984, including an adjustment for losses of Voisey Bay and Anaktalik Bay charr in offshore fishing areas, were 9.2 t - Voisey Bay, 8.1 t - Anaktalik Bay, and 13.9 t - Okak Bay. In this assessment, the Voisey Bay - Antons area has been grouped as one stock unit. Total allowable catches in 1985, as determined from cohort analyses, are 25 t for the Voisey - Antons stock, and 27 t for Okak Bay. Insufficient new information was available to recommend a TAC for the Anaktalik Bay stock different from the 8.2 t quota of 1984"--Abstract.
