Catch composition of British Columbia shrimp trawls and preliminary estimation of bycatch - with emphasis on eulachons / D.E. Hay … [et al.]. : Fs70-1/1999-26E-PDF

This paper presents a preliminary analysis of bycatch in the 1997 British Columbia shrimp trawl fishery. The analysis is preliminary because the date on fishing effort (duration of fishing time and total tows made) for the 1997 fishery are not yet available. There are, however, urgent concerns about some aspects of bycatch, especially for eulachons (Thaleichthys pacificus). Some management decisions were required prior to the beginning of the 1998 shrimp fishery. Therefore, an alternative approach using 'hailed' catch data as an approximation of total shrimp catch was used.
