An assessment of the status of the Newfoundland west coast herring stock / by J.A. Moores and G.H. Winters. : Fs70-8/80-51E-PDF

"During the past four years herring catches from the Newfoundland west coast stock have risen steadily from 10,000 t in 1976 to 18,300 t in 1979. Much of the increase in catch is attributable to expansion in the fixed gear component. The age composition of the catch showed an improving recruitment pattern with significant contributions from the 1974 year-class of spring-spawners and the 1973 year-class of autumn-spawners, however, age-groups 10+ remained dominant in the catch from both components"--Abstract.
