Pacific Hake Fishery Final Report 3 1 Executive Summary An assessment team of Mark Pedersen, Max Stocker, and Robert J. Trumble conducted the assessment using CR v1.3. The assessment team met with scientists, managers, and other stakeholders from the US and Canada from 20-22 November 2014 in person and by teleconference in Seattle and by teleconference on 25 and 26 November 2014. The fisheries of the US and Canada for Pacific Hake are exceptionally well managed and are characterized by state of the art stock assessments and harvest strategies designed and implemented jointly. The stock is in good condition. Both countries implement high levels of control over the fisheries to minimize environmental impacts. The overarching legislation and regulation affecting Principle 1 and Principle 2 are highly developed, and applied specifically to the fisheries. On the basis of this re-assessment of the fisheries, the Assessment Team recommends that the US and Canadian fisheries for Pacific Hake maintain certification. The US fishery received no conditions, but the team identified two performance indicators for the Canadian fishery that scored less than 80 and received conditions:

(2015) and as updated to 2017 by Dunstan et al. (2020). Much of the below materials and descriptions focus heavily on earlier periods, for which fewer contiguous data time series or formal sources are available, compared to the more recent years. We derived time series estimates for all sources of unreported marine fisheries catches (landed and discarded) and combined these with the landings data reported by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA-NMFS) to the FAO on behalf of the USA. Thus, we follow the general ‘catch reconstruction’ methodology and process of Zeller et al. (2016). We define ‘reported catch’ as that catch that is included in official national and hence international FAO data.

It is intendedfor those whodo not have the experience or the time to usea keyfor rockfish identification. This guide will beof useto fishermen,fish processors,and those involved in fisheriesmanagement. It will alsobe of helpto diverswho do not wish to collectfish for later identification. Themost important part of thispublication is thecolor photographs. Many species, for example Sebastes nebulosus, can be identi- fiedby color alone. Although color is a veryimportant characteristic, manyspecies arevery similar toothers and the diagrams and descriptionsmust be usedto be certainwhich species you have. Whilethe guide is intended primarily for Alaskan waters, we have included all rockfishspecies found off Alaska and British Colum- biato make it useful over a widerarea, It alsoincludes almost all rockfish found in Washington andOregon waters. The species are arrangedalphabetically byscientific name rather than by color or some other physical characteristic. The1995 edition has changes to improve accuracyof head spine counts and range/habitat. Wehope this guide will beof practical use to the fishing industry. We also hope divers and recreational fishermen will find greater enjoymentin theirsport by beingable to identifythe rockfishthey see or catch.

  • Field Guide to the Rockfishes (Scorpaenidae) of Alaska
    Field Guide to the Rockfishes (Scorpaenidae) of Alaska Extracted from: Orr, J. W., M. A. Brown, and D. C. Baker. 2000. Guide to rockfishes (Scorpaenidae) of the genera Sebastes, Sebastolobus, and Adelosebastes of the Northeast Pacific Ocean, second edition. U.S. Dep. Commer., NOAA Tech. Memo. NMFS-AFSC-117, 47 p. U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Service Alaska Fisheries Science Center Alaska Groundfish Observer Program 2002 ABSTRACT The rockfishes (family Scorpaenidae) of the northeast Pacific Ocean north of Mexico comprise five genera, three of which are included in this guide: Sebastes, Sebastolobus, and Adelosebastes. Sebastes includes some 100 species worldwide; 33, including one to be described, are presently recognized from Alaskan waters. Sebastolobus (commonly known as the thornyheads) includes only three species worldwide; all three are found in Alaskan waters. The single species of Adelosebastes (the Aleutian scorpionfish, A. latens) is known only from the Aleutian Islands and Emperor Seamounts. Of the three genera treated here, Sebastes poses the most difficulties in identification, both because of the numbers of species and because of their morphological similarity and variability. This guide includes color images of 37 species photographed under natural and electronic flash conditions in the field. Most specimens were photographed immediately after collection. iii CONTENTS Abstract.......................................................................................................

  • Localized Depletion of Three Alaska Rockfish Species Dana Hanselman NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska
    Biology, Assessment, and Management of North Pacific Rockfishes 493 Alaska Sea Grant College Program • AK-SG-07-01, 2007 Localized Depletion of Three Alaska Rockfish Species Dana Hanselman NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska Paul Spencer NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Resource Ecology and Fisheries Management (REFM) Division, Seattle, Washington Kalei Shotwell NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, Auke Bay Laboratory, Juneau, Alaska Rebecca Reuter NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, REFM Division, Seattle, Washington Abstract The distributions of some rockfish species in Alaska are clustered. Their distribution and relatively sedentary movement patterns could make localized depletion of rockfish an ecological or conservation concern. Alaska rockfish have varying and little-known genetic stock structures. Rockfish fishing seasons are short and intense and usually confined to small areas. If allowable catches are set for large management areas, the genetic, age, and size structures of the population could change if the majority of catch is harvested from small concentrated areas. In this study, we analyzed data collected by the North Pacific Observer Program from 1991 to 2004 to assess localized depletion of Pacific ocean perch (Sebastes alutus), northern rockfish S.( polyspinis), and dusky rockfish (S. variabilis). The data were divided into blocks with areas of approxi- mately 10,000 km2 and 5,000 km2 of consistent, intense fishing. We used two different block sizes to consider the size for which localized deple- tion could be detected. For each year, the Leslie depletion estimator was used to determine whether catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) values in each 494 Hanselman et al.—Three Alaska Rockfish Species block declined as a function of cumulative catch.
