Scallop stock update for Grand Manan and southwest New Brunswick, SPA 6 - 1999 / M.A.E. Butler, M.J. Lundy and D. Roddick. : Fs70-1/1999-174E-PDF
The landings in 1999 from SPA 6 decreased from 1998. Numbers of Mid Bay vessels fishing SPA 6 decreased while there was a slight increase in the number of Full Bay vessels fishing SPA 6 from 1998. Catch rates increased in SPA 6A but decreased in SPA 6B for both fleets. Meat weight sampling indicated a minimal increase in mean meat weight through the year in SPA 6A, and was constant in SPA 6B and SPA 6C. Survey indices indicated an increase in average number of commercial sized scallops per tow in the Grand Manan Island inside zone, SPA 6B and minimal decrease in SPA 6A. There was an increase in pre-recruits concentrated in the Duck Island Sound area of SPA 6B. These pre-recruits should be protected from incidental fishing mortality. Survey mean weights per standard tow increased slightly for both areas. Survey catch rates per standard tow were average.
