Catch statistics by subarea and assessment unit for the northern Labrador Arctic charr fishery in 1986 / by J.B. Dempson, L.J. LeDrew, and G. Furey.: Fs70-8/87-22E-PDF

"Catch and effort statistics for the northern Labrador Arctic charr fishery in 1986 are summarized. Total northern Labrador landings of 114 t were 19% lower than 1985 landings and 43% below the previous 10-year mean of 199 t. In spite of this decrease, combined landings from the three major assessment units in the Nain Fishing Region took approximately 80% (range 69-86%) of the TAC allocated. The continued decrease in fishing effort is a major factor associated with reduced landings again in 1986. Fishing effort in the Nain Fishing Region was 35-40% lower than it was during the peak years of 1981 and 1982. Charr landings in the Makkovik region were also the lowest recorded since 1975"--Abstract, page 2.
