Fleet Activity in the 1997 4WX Herring Fishery
By S.D. Paul
Abstract
The timing and location of fishing by commercial herring vessels is summarized for the three spawning stock components in the 1997 4WX herring fishery. For each week during the fishing season an outline describing fishing activity, as well as related information which may involve fish size, temperature and comments from fishers are provided. Observations and documentation of schools and spawning grounds by the commercial fleet are included, as well as quantitative hydroacoustic biomass estimates of spawning stock which were used to estimate the spawning stock biomass in the southwest (SW) Nova Scotia spawning component for 1997.
