520 |a"The southern Gulf of St. Lawrence (ICNAF Subarea 4T) scallop fishery, although a relatively minor fishery in terms of total Maritime scallop landings (4.2% in 1975; 3.6% in 1976; and 1.7% in 1977), is predominantly a Northumberland Strait fishery (81% in 1976; 79% in 1977). Scalloping is a major fishery within the Strait, both in terms of number of boats actively involved (273 boats in 1978) and in dollar value ($1.3 million in 1976; $0.6 million in 1977). Recorded Strait scallop landings peaked in 1968 at about 885 MT of adductor muscle but have since declined to 187 MT in 1977. Catches are continuing low; and in 1978, when there was imposed a two-month summer scallop closure season to reduce effort and help preserve stocks, the total landing was about 200 MT. The only redeeming consideration is the all-time high price presently being paid for scallop meat (about $3/lb.) and the initiating of scallop meat-plus-gonad market development; the same price per pound was paid for meat and gonad, and since gonad weight, when of a quality to be marketable, is about 60% of meat weight, the economic return per animal fished is thus significantly increased"--Introduction, page [1].
