Canadian tagging of commercial groundfish and small pelagic fish in the vicinity of the Scotian Shelf and Gulf of St. Lawrence, 1953-1985
Marine finfish tagging studies were conducted between 1953 and 1985, during which over 556,400 groundfish and small pelagic fish, representing 17 species, were tagged by personnel of the St. Andrews Biological Station and the Bedford Institute of Oceanography. The geographical area involved in these studies extended from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the northeastern portion of the Gulf of Maine. This report documents tagging procedures, recovery parameters, and database formats developed to provide a permanent record of the work, and to release length frequency information on species for which the data were not compatible with the databases. It also includes maps for detailing the locations, numbers and dates of release of all the species.

"We examined marine finfish tagging studies conducted between 1953 and 1985, during which over 556,400 groundfish and small pelagic fish, representing 17 species, were tagged by personnel of the St. Andrews Biological Station and the Bedford Institute of Oceanography. The geographical area involved in these studies extended from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the northeastern portion of the Gulf of Maine. Over 40,800 tags were recovered by the fishing industry. This report documents tagging procedures, recovery parameters, and database formats developed to provide a permanent record of the work, and release length frequency information on species for which the data were not compatible with the databases. We provide maps detailing the locations, numbers and dates of release of all the species. We provide individual species synopses, in which previously published recovery maps and conclusions on stock movements are updated for a number of tagging studies that were published using incomplete recovery periods, or have not been previously reported. We also provide a comprehensive list of publications and reports produced, related to those tagging studies.--Author's description."@en
