Stock structure of American shad, Alosa sapidissima, in the Gulf of Maine and Bay of Fundy / by Michael J. Dadswell.: Fs70-8/86-97E-PDF
"In the past, American shad have been managed on a river basin or ocean region basis. Both river and ocean fisheries exist in the Gulf of Maine-Bay of Fundy and have been exploited for the last 200 yr. Fisheries are located in the Saint John, Shubenacadie and Annapolis Rivers, and in Minas and Cumberland Basins and Shepody Bay in the upper Bay of Fundy. Landings in all fisheries have declined to historical lows, first because of reduced shad abundance, and finally because of low demand"--Abstract.
