An assessment of northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) in shrimp fishing areas 4-6 in 2019.: Fs70-6/2021-010E-PDF

"The bottom trawl fishery for Northern Shrimp (Pandalus borealis) off the coast of Labrador began in the mid-1970s, primarily in the Hopedale and Cartwright Channels (Shrimp Fishing Area [SFA] 5), expanding north to SFA 4 and south to SFA 6 through the 1980s. The last Zonal Peer Review Process that assessed Northern Shrimp in SFAs 4-6 was held in February, 2019 (DFO 2019). The assessment made use of fishery data from observer and logbook datasets and from the Canadian Atlantic Quota Report (CAQR), along with survey data from fall and summer bottom trawl surveys and from the Atlantic Zonal Monitoring Program (AZMP). Together these provided information on catch rates, distribution, exploitation rate, biomass and potential environmental drivers"--Context, page [1].
