Assessment of the 1989 4WX herring fishery / by R.L. Stephenson, M.J. Power, W.H. Dougherty, D.J. Gordon and J.B. Sochasky.: Fs70-8/90-50E-PDF

"The 1989 4WX herring fishery was dominated by the purse seine sector which accounted for 95% of stock landings. There were some spatial and temporal differences in the pattern of the fishery compared with recent years, including reduced catches from the Trinity Ledge area and increases in the Long Island, Seal Island and upper Bay of Fundy areas. Reported landings were 32% lower than in 1988, mainly due to poor markets, in particular a late price agreement in the roe market"--Abstract, page 1.
