500 |a"The chief objective of this study was to construct sexual maturity length and age curves for the mackerel population spawning in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The results were compared with the minimum legal catch length currently in force. A second, equally important objective was to detail the growth and certain biological characteristics of the mackerel sampled in the course of the study. St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia, was chosen as the sampling site not only because it has a significant fishery each year, but because of the presence in the catches of small mackerel that are not generally caught, or at least present in the regular commercial samples from the Gulf of St. Lawrence."--Pages 1-2. Prepared at the Regional Science Branch, Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Maurice Lamontagne Institute, 850 route de la Mer, P.O. Box 1000, Mont-Joli (Quebec) G5H 3Z4.
