An assessment of the American plaice stock in NAFO subarea 2 and div. 3K / by W. Brodie.: Fs70-8/87-45E-PDF

"At present, the database for this stock is not sufficient to allow an analytical assessment to be performed. Catches since 1981 have been well below the 10,000t TAC, although the catch in 1986 of about 3,100t was up considerably over the 1985 level. Research vessel surveys indicate a steady decline in biomass in Div. 2J from 1983-86 despite negligible catches, but indicate a relatively stable biomass in Div. 3K where over 90% of recent catches have been taken. Catches by Canadian offshore trawlers in many years were too low to permit an accurate measure of CPUE to be obtained. Continuation of the 10,000t TAC is recommended for 1988"--Abstract, page 2.
