Harvest, catch-effort, and biological information of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) collected from subsistence harvest monitoring programs at Hornaday River, Lasard Creek, and Tippitiuyak, Darnley Bay,...: Fs70-5/2016-108E-PDF

“Harvest, catch-effort, and biological information of Arctic Char (Salvelinus alpinus) collected from a standardized subsistence harvest monitoring program at the mouth of the Hornaday River (1990–2013), Lasard Creek (2011–2013), and at Tippitiuyak (Tippi) (2012–2013), Darnley Bay, Northwest Territories were analyzed to inform the population assessment of char from the Hornaday River. Additionally, biological data periodically collected mainly from the commercial fishery between 1973 and 1989 were compared to more recent data. The annual patterns in catch-effort and length, weight, and age-related metrics do not indicate current signs of overharvest or deteriorating stock status and suggest the level of harvest is sustainable"--Abstract, p. iv.
