Status of Atlantic salmon stocks, Gulf Region, Newfoundland and Labrador, 1987 / by R.R. Claytor and C.C. Mullins.: Fs70-8/88-1E-PDF
"Commercial landings of all salmon by number were slightly (12%) above 1986 but exceeded mean catch since 1984 by 75% and were the highest since 1981. Landings of small salmon were the greatest since 1976 and of large salmon the greatest since 1983. The largest commercial catch of small and large salmon was in Area K for insular Newfoundland. However, the large salmon catch in Southern Labrador was three times Area K. Recreational catches of all salmon were slightly below but within 10% of 1986, five, and ten year means. The largest recreational catch of 1SW salmon was in Area L, while Areas K and 0(50) had the highest MSW salmon catches (including hook and release). Large salmon commercial catch in Area 0(50), and total returns to Area N and Area M are forecast to be similar in 1988 to 1987"--Abstract, page 1.
