The 4X cod fishery : a biological update / by S. Campana and J. Simon.: Fs70-8/84-43E-PDF
"Nominal landings of 4X cod were 26,489 t in 1983 -- a substantial decline from the 31,528 t landed in 1982. Part of the decline may be attributable to reduced availability to longline gear and/or misreporting by fishermen whose quota had been reached. As in past years analysis of commercial catch rates produced results that were not consistent among gear types or unit areas. Population and morality estimates derived from research surveys suggest that offshore cod abundance has been relatively stable for the past 13 years, although the region remains over exploited"--Abstract, page 2.
