Impact of the 4Vn winter fishery on the yield of the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence cod stock / by G.A. Chouinard and A.F. Sinclair.: Fs70-8/87-92E-PDF

"The effect of the 4Vn winter fishery on the yield obtained for the 4TVn (Jan.-Apr.) cod stock was examined by reviewing discard studies and conducting simulations using modified catch equations. Observer information and previous studies found that discard rates were lower in area 4Vn than in area 4T. The simulations indicated that an increase of 3% in yield would occur if the fishery would be conducted in 4T only from May to December"--Abstract, page 2.
