St. Pierre Bank : an offshore scallop buffer zone / by K. S. Naidu, D. B. Lewis and F. M. Cahill. : Fs70-8/83-16E-PDF
"The scallop fishery on St. Pierre Bank is prosecuted exclusively by Maritime-based offshore vessels which make intermittent, opportunistic excursions to buffer declining catches elsewhere on the Atlantic seaboard, particularly Georges Bank. An unprecedented diversion of effort into St.Pierre Bank in 1982 resulted in record removals approximating 800 MT meats. The Bank is unique in that two species of scallops are found, often occurring coextensively in the two NAFO strata where offshore fishing effort is directed. Historically the fleets have had a decided preference for sea scallops but larger Iceland scallops are now being increasingly retained as well. Their relative contributions are highly variable and impose undue problems to species-specific management"--Abstract.
