Book excerpt: "Although the largest proportion of the catch of witch flounder is taken as a by-catch of other commercial groundfish fisheries, it forms a major component of the Canadian groundfish resource. The fishery for witch began in the late 1940's with the establishment of the local otter-trawling fleet in Newfoundland. Exclusive fishing occurred in Fortune Bay in the early 1950's and became important in the Gulf of St. Lawrence when the Danish Seiners moved to St. George's Bay from Fortune Bay in 1956 because of much reduced catches and this fishery has been carried out ever since. In recent years the landings in the Gulf of St. Lawrence have increased rapidly to 5,300 tons in 1976 as the result of a winter fishery for cod, in the vicinity of St. George's Bay. A precautionary quota of 3,500 tons annually was set for this area in the last couple of years based on catch statistics. This document presents the first analytical assessment of this witch stock in the Gulf of St. Lawrence"--Introduction.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercial fisheries for witch flounder (Glyptocephalus cynoglossus) developed rapidly in the 1940s with the introduction of otter trawling to Newfoundland. Witch flounder in the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence (NAFO Division 4RS) came under quota management in 1977, with a quota of 3,500. The most recent full assessment of the status of this stock was conducted in 2006. This Science Advisory Report is from the regional peer review meeting of February 22, 2012 on the Assessment of stock status of witch flounder (Glyptocephalus cynoglossus) from the Gulf of St. Lawrence, NAFO Divisions 4RST.--Document.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witch flounder (Glyptocephalus cynoglossus) occur in the Northwest Atlantic from off southern Labrador to Cape Hatteras. They most commonly occur in deep holes and channels and along the shelf slope on muddy bottom. This review examined a proposal that the witch flounder moving into the Cape Breton Trough in eastern 4T each summer were more closely affiliated with witch flounder on the northeastern Scotian Shelf (NAFO Div. 4VW) than with those in other regions of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The review acknowledged that the stock affiliations of witch flounder in eastern Div. 4T are uncertain but concluded that there was insufficient evidence to warrant a revision of the management units for witch flounder. Thus, this assessment of stock status is based on a 4RST management unit. The last full assessment of this stock occurred in February 2006. This document updates assessment analyses to 2011.--Document.
