Assessment of Voisey Bay, Anaktalik Bay, and Okak Bay Arctic charr stocks in 1983 and projections for 1984 / by J.B. Dempson, L.J. LeDrew.: Fs70-8/84-8E-PDF

"Using a method developed to account for the additional exploitation of the Anaktalik Bay Arctic charr stock in offshore fishing areas, cohort analyses were performed on adjusted catch at age data from 1977-83. Stock projections using population numbers generated from a terminal fishing morality of 0.2 for Anaktalik Bay and 0.5 for Okak Bay indicated an F 0.1 yield in 1984 of 8 t and 27 t for the two stocks respectively. Owing to the low catch in Voisey Bay in 1983 and the problem of not being able to account for Voisey Bay charr losses in the Antons area, it was decided that there was insufficient new information to recommend a TAC different from the 16 t quota of 1983"--Abstract, page 2.
