  • Walleye Pollock
    Walleye pollock Walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) spawning in the Okhotsk Sea waters off the north Kuril Islands and south-western Kamchatka Alexander V. Buslov and Alexander I. Varkentin Kamchatka Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography (KamchatNIRO) and Marine Commercial Fishes Laboratory, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Long-term analysis of ichtyoplankton surveys and growth data indicates that the Okhotsk Sea waters off the north Kuril Islands and south-western Kamchatka is the traditional spawning region of walleye pollock of east Kamchatka origin. In this area the spawning “peak” occurs later than in western Kamchatka waters from the end of April to the beginning of May. So, it is necessary to conduct an additional ichtyoplankton survey at the end of April in order not to underestimate part of the walleye pollock stock. Introduction waters adjacent to western Kamchatka, including Shelikhov Gulf; in the northwestern part of the Walleye pollock is one of the most numerous fish Okhotsk Sea; and nearby north-east Sakhalin island. species in the North Pacific and is a very important fishery resource. The Okhotsk Sea is a main pollock In the northern part the Okhotsk Sea the center of fishery region. In 1992 the total catch was about 2.7 walleye pollock reproduction is located on the west million metric tons. In the last 5 years it has Kamchatka shelf. In this area, time and location of averaged 0.6 million metric tons. spawning vary from year to year depending on the temperature conditions (Fadeev and Ovsyannikov, A great deal of attention is always given to studying 2001; Varkentin et al., 2001).
