Evaluation of fishery independent surveys as assessment tools for lobster fishing areas (LFAs) 34-38 / D.S. Pezzack, M.J. Tremblay and C.M. Denton. : Fs70-5/2015-035E-PDF
Fishery-independent data are needed to fully assess lobster stock status in the Maritimes Region. In the areas covered by Lobster Fishing Areas (LFAs) 34-38, there have been several types of surveys that were designed to target other species. These surveys are the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Maritimes Region Summer Research Vessel Survey (RV survey), an industry-sponsored survey for groundfish (Individual Transferrable Quota, or ITQ survey) and several surveys for scallops (Scallop surveys). All three survey types collected data on lobster abundance and demography. Because of differences in gear selectivity and survey timing, the surveys provide a different window on the population than that provided by commercial traps. This document includes survey data up to the end of 2012; in 2013 the ITQ survey began a transition to a more lobster-focussed survey.
