An update of the status of redfish in NAFO subarea 2 and Div. 3K / by D. Power and D.B. Atkinson.: Fs70-8/87-49E-PDF
"Canada has dominated this fishery since implementing a 200 mile fishery zone in 1977. Canadian landings in 1984-86 increased two-fold over the 1983 level in response to improved market conditions. Catches for 1984 and 1985 from the Division 3K were among the highest on record from this component of the stock and constituted more than 90% of the total catch in those years. Catch rates have generally been between 1.0 and 1.5 t/hr since 1959 but declined in recent years from the highest value on record in 1984. Results from an equilibrium general production analysis indicate a yield at 2/3 effort maximum exploitable yield (MEY) of about 25,000 t"--Abstract, page 2.
