1985 biological update for the Canadian swordfish fishery / by R. L. Stephenson and M. J. Power.: Fs70-8/85-71E-PDF
"Swordfish landings by longline and harpoon of 499 t were recorded in 1984. Landings were lower than in 1983 (1088 t) and well below the quota of 3500 t. Lower landings are thought to be the result of poor market conditions and reduced fishing effort (many licensed vessels were inactive) but CPUE (t/day) was also slightly lower than in 1983. Assessment of this fishery is hampered by a number of factors including a shortage of biological data"--Abstract.
