Sampling Protocol for the Clyde River Winter Long-Line Fishery, Stage II Exploratory
Context
The Clyde River Hunters and Trappers Organization (HTO) have been working towards the development of an inshore winter turbot fishery in areas adjacent to their community since 2001. In 2003 they formed a partnership with the Marine Institute of Memorial University and in 2003, 2006 and 2007 conducted Stage I exploratory fisheries in Hecla and Griper Trough, Scott Inlet, Sam Ford Trough and Scott Trough. Results indicated the potential for development to a Stage II exploratory fishery. Fisheries Management has requested Science advice on the development of a sampling protocol for implementation by the Clyde River HTO, inshore winter turbot fishery, Exploratory Stage II.
