Scotia-Fundy shrimp stock status - 1987 / by M.L. Etter and R.K. Mohn.: Fs70-8/88-12E-PDF

"The Scotia-Fundy shrimp (Pandalus borealis) fishery covers three areas with depths > 100 fm, referred to as Canso, Louisbourg, and Misaine holes. These areas have been continuously underexploited over the past years, as in 1987 only 152 t (7.1%) of the total quota of 2140 t were taken. This represents an exploitation rate of 2.0% based on the total biomass estimate"--Abstract, page 2.
