The Grand Manan area scallop stock assessment - 1986 / by G. Robert and M.J. Lundy.: Fs70-8/87-28E-PDF

"The scallop fishery of southwest New Brunswick, more particularly the Grand Manan Island area continued on a declining trend initiated after record landings, over 500t in 1981. Fishery catch-rates have also decreased steadily.

Latest survey results have established the presence of high densities of juvenile scallops in some specific locations"--Abstract, page 2.
