Canadian offshore lobster fishery, 1985-86, and assessment of the potential for future increase in catch / by D.S. Pezzack and D.R. Duggan.Fs70-8/87-79E-PDF

"Catch and effort data for 1981-86 are presented, along with a review of the impact of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) decision on the offshore fishery and an assessment of the potential for increased fishing effort in the Browns/Georges Banks area. The ICJ decision resulted in no new lobster fishing grounds on Georges Bank; however, it eliminated American effort from Crowell and Georges Basins. Though no change has been observed in the catch from Crowell Basin, the Canadian catch from Georges Basin has increased from 14 t in 1983 to 267 t in 1985"--Abstract, page 2.
