Georges Bank scallop stock assessment - 1986 / by R.K. Mohn, G. Robert and D.L. Roddick.: Fs70-8/87-9E-PDF
"The Canadian Georges Bank scallop catch for 1986 was 4,900 t., a 29% increase over last year and the highest of the last five years. This continues the recovery from 1984 landings, which were the worst since 1959. This is due to the strong 1982 and good 1981 and 1983 year-classes. The biomass at the end of 1986 is the highest it has been since the peak of 1977-1978. Research data indicate that the 1984 year-class is also good, and therefore catches should continue at this level or higher in 1987"--Abstract, page 1.
