Review of the 1983 commercial abalone fishery in British Columbia / by K.T. Bates.Fs97-4/1826E-PDF

"The 1983 commercial abalone (Haliotis kamtschatkana) fishery in British Columbia harvested 58,813 kg (129,660 lb). Most of the catch was taken in Area 2E (35% of total B.C. catch), with lesser amounts in Area 1 (21%), Area 20 (13%) and Area 6 (13%). Abalone fishing effort by Statistical Area varied widely and averaged 130 kg/diver day. This is slightly below the levels reported in 1980, 1981 and 1982, and below the levels recorded during the period 1977 to 1979. The year 1983 was the second year that the reported total catch did not reach the allowable coast-wide catch"--Abstract, page v.
