Analysis of the Okak assessment unit Arctic charr population in 1986 / by J.B. Dempson and L.J. LeDrew.: Fs70-8/87-17E-PDF

"The Okak assessment unit, made up of Okak Bay and the Cutthroat subareas, was first assessed as a homogenous unit at the end of the 1985 fishery. Annual landings have ranged from 5 to 76 t (mean 38 t) and from 1977 to 1986 have represented 26% of the total commercial catch of Arctic charr from the Nain fishing region. Total allowable catch in 1986 was 42 t. Landings in 1986 were 39 t or 69% of the recommended TAC. Effort decreased by 17% while catch per unit effort was up by 5%. A sequential population analysis was carried out on catch at age data from 1977 to 1986 and suggested a reference level catch in 1987 of 38-50 t"--Abstract, page 2.
