Sablefish stock assessment for 1999 and recommended yield options for 2000 and 2001 / V. Haist, R. Hilborn and M.W. Saunders.: Fs70-1/1999-195E-PDF
This document represents a major assessment for B.C. sablefish. The principle data source on trends in abundance is the tagging program, and in particular the percentage of tags returned in the year following tagging. Coastwide, this percentage remained steady at 10-11% from 1991 to 1997, but rose to 14% in 1998. This assessment document is organized in three sections. The first section describes the history of the B.C. sablefish fishery and updates pertinent fisheries statistics. In the second section, analyses of the B.C. sablefish mark-recapture data are presented. The final section describes the results of analyses applying an integrated catch-age mark-recapture model to the B.C. sablefish data and presents results of stock projections using this model.
