Movements of the lobster, Homarus Americanus, off northeastern Cape Breton Island, with notes on lobster catchability / by M. J. Tremblay, M. D. Eagles and G. A. P. Black.  : Fs97-6/2220E

In response to the interest by fishermen for information on local growth and movement of lobsters, a study was initiated in the St. Anns Bay area in 1993 (Fig.1). The growth of lobsters tagged between Wreck Cove and Englishtown (Fig. 1) is analysed in detail in Tremblay and Eagles (1997). Here we present data on lobster movement from these areas, plus data on growth and movement from tagging studies in Aspy Bay, around the Bird Islands, in Glace Bay and off Port Morien. A byproduct of these tagging studies are data on return rate by size and gender which we use to estimate relative catchability.--Page 1
