Summary of catch statistics for the Northern Labrador arctic charr fishery in 1983 / by J.B. Dempson, L.J. LeDrew, and G. Furey.: Fs70-8/84-5E-PDF

"Catch and effort statistics for the northern Labrador Arctic charr fishery are summarized. Total northern Labrador charr landings of 179 t were 26% lower than 1982 landings but only 7% lower than the previous 9 year mean of 191 t. Factors contributing to the decreased catches in 1983 were: lower abundance of Arctic charr available to the inshore fishery, apparent offshore movement of charr, lack of a fishery in the Hebron-Saglek region and reduced effort because of ice conditions along the northern Labrador coast in 1983"--Abstract, page 2.
