ABSTRACT

A statistical review of the haddock fishery of New England banks (Subarea 5 of the International Commission for the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries) is presented for the 1956 haddock year . Estimates of total fishery removals are given for scrod and large haddock, both landed and discarded at sea, by nnonth and area of capture. The estimated age and length compositions of the total haddock discard for 1956 are given. Age and length compositions are estimated by month for haddock landed from Georges Bank (ICNAF Subdivision 5Z) and by season for haddock landed from the Gulf of Maine (Sub- division 5Y), Fishing effort and abundance estimates are given for Georges Bank by month.

INTRODUCTION

The haddock (Melanogrammus aegle- finus) is a gadoid fish that inhabits the Continental and Island Shelves of the North Atlantic Ocean. Although a close ecological associate of the cod, had- dock are found in abundance neither so far south nor so far north. Along the North American coast the species is fished commercially from Cape Cod to the Grand Bank and in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

This study is restricted to the fish- ing grounds of the Gulf of Maine, the Great South Channel, Georges Bank, and the Southern New England shelf. These grounds make up Subarea 5 (Sub- division 5Y and 5Z) as defined by the In- ternational Commission for the North- west Atlantic Fisheries (ICNAF) sta-

tistical systenn (fig. 1). At present, only the United States fishes haddock extensively on these grounds; Canada takes only small quantities from 5Y.

Extensive studies of the New England haddock fishery and of the biology and habits of the species have been carried out since 1931. The biostatistical data resulting from these studies have been utilized in many publications and in forming the basis for international regulation of the haddock fishery through control of mesh size (Graham, 1952). The world-wide interest in the effect of the regulation and in many other aspects of the research program has led to an increasing demand for publication of the basic biostatistical data for New England haddock. To answer this demand, a regular series of biostatistical reports is planned.

The responsibility for studies of the Canadian and U. S. haddock fisheries throughout the Northwest Atlantic are

shared by the two countries through a cooperative program sponsored by ICNAF, At present, the principal re- sponsibility for the biostatistical pro- gram for ICNAF Subdivisions 4X, 5Y, and 5Z is carried by the Bureau of Com- mercial Fisheries, Biological Labora- tory at Woods Hole. Responsibility for Subdivisions 4R to 4W is carried by the St. Andrews Biological Station and for all of Subarea 3 by the St. John's Biological Station, both of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. Haddock data and material collected by the agen- cies outside their respective areas of responsibility are exchanged at in- tervals.

The present report gives, inasnnuch detail as practicable, a summary of the total removals of haddock from Sub- divisions 5Y and 5Z during the 1956 haddock year. A basic account of the methods used in deriving the estimates is given by Schuck (1951).

The data are arranged by "haddock year" to conform most nearly to the seasonal physiological cycle of the fish. The haddock year differs from a cal- endar year by one month; i. e., it com- mences February 1 and ends January 31 of the following year. The seasonal arrangement of the haddock year de- vised by Schuck is used herein and is shown below:

Spring February, March, April

Summer May, June, July

Fall August, September, October

Winter November, December, January

To permit maximum usefulness of the data. Subdivision 5Y has been divided into northern and southern sections, and 5Z into eastern and western sec- tions.

Most haddock caught are landed and sold for human consumption and these shall be of primary concern. However, two other categories of removals from the stock shall be considered: had- dock too small to be marketed which are discarded at sea, and haddock taken in the industrial fishery.

FISHING METHODS

Otter trawls accounted for over 98 percent of the U. S. landings from 5Y and 5Z in 1956, the rennainder being taken by handlines, longlines, and gill nets. Approximately 86 trawlers were engaged in the U. S. haddock fishery during 1956. About 35 of these were large otter trawlers (gross tonnage of 151 to 360 tons) which can easilyrange Sonne 600 miles from port. The re- mainder were mostly medium trawlers (gross tonnage of 51 to 150 tons) which usually range no more than 300 nniles from port. The few smaller trawlers engaged in haddock fishing usually range no farther than 75 miles from port. U. S. line trawlers, handliners, and gill netters mostly make 1 -day trips. They do not venture far from their home ports and, consequently, fish only in the western parts of Sub- divisions 5Y and 5Z.

THE CATCH

Haddock catches are nearly always separated (culled) into nnarket cate- gories of large and scrod. Large had- dock weigh more than 2-1/2 pounds (gutted) and scrod haddock weigh from 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 pounds. Undersized haddock, those smaller than 1-1/2 pounds, are presumably discarded at sea because they are not of marketable size. This definition of market cate- gories provides only an approximate standard and, in practice culling pro- cedures vary considerably, particularly in response to changes in the relative price or abundance of large and scrod.

When undersized haddock (as small as 3/4 pound) are landed, they are marketed as scrod and thus included in landings statistics with scrod. The oc- currence of undersized haddock in the landings has been negligible since the advent of the ICNAF mesh regulation in 1953.

The catch is culled by the fishermen before landing at the ports of Boston and Gloucester. Dealers typically cull the landings at other U. S. ports. Haddock are nearly always gutted by the

fishermen at sea before landing. Snaall scrod haddock are occasionally landed "in the round" when unusually abundant.

Information on source of landings (area of capture) and fishing effort ex- pended is obtained primarily from in- terviews with the captains or nnates of the vessels. Landing and selling procedures are well-enough organized in Boston, where 80 percent of U. S. landings are received, pernnit agents to obtain interviews of all trawler trips. The proportion of trips landed in other New England ports that are interviewed varies depending upon many circum- stances of the landing procedure and the time of year, but averages about 70 to 75 percent. Landings from non-inter- viewed trips are assigned to area of capture on the basis of records from interviewed trips and incidental infor- mation obtained by the agents. De- scriptions of interviewing procedure at New England ports are given by Rounsefell (1948 and 1957) and the haddock fishing grounds are outlined by Schuck (1952).

Discarded Portion

In some fisheries the portion dis- carded at sea by fishermen arnounts to a substantial proportion of the total catch. Herrington (1936) estimatedthat 63 m-Uion small fish were discarded annually on Georges Bank alone during the early 1930's. The discard has been much less of recent years, particularly since the advent of mesh regulation; slightly over 400,000 small haddock were discarded on Georges Bank in 1956. Although the portion of the total catch consisting of discards is snnallat present, we have recorded it in order to make this study inclusive of all sources of removals.

The amounts discarded at sea are deternnined fronn fishermen's estimates obtained during interviews as described by Premetz (1954). Only Boston trawlers fish extensively on New England grounds in areas where small haddock are abundant. Small amounts of discard have been i:eported occa- sionally at New Bedford, but very rarely at other ports.

The total reported amount of discard for Subarea 5 is given in table 1 by nnonth and subarea. No discard was re- ported for Subdivision 5Y in 1956. Most of the discard was accounted for by six vessels that were licensed to continue fishing with trawls having the small preregulation size nneshes to serve as a control fleet in determining the benefit of the ICNAF nnesh regulation (Clark, 1955).

Landed Portion

Quantities of haddock landed are obtained by statistical agents from dealer's records. The statistics col- lecting systems ennployed are adequate to guarantee a nearly complete sum- mation of commercial landings of had- dock for human consumption.

Total landings of haddock are listed in tables 2a and 2b by month, market size category, and statistical area- units (see Rounsefell, 1948, for basis of establishing these area-units as shown in fig. 2). The landings are sum- marized by East and West sections for 5Z and North and South sections for 5Y in conformance ■with kno'wn differences in stock composition and fishing fleet composition.

Quantities landed are expressed in gutted weight to conform with usual reporting procedures. Infrequent land- ings of haddock "in the round" are con- verted to gutted weight by the factor 0.855. We have included only those haddock landed for direct human con- sumption. Haddock landed for human consunnption are nearly always sepa- rated from other species and recorded and sold as haddock. Consequently, the total quantities of haddock landed for hunnan consumption can usually be determined without risk of error caused by mixture with other species. How- ever, one market situation exists that has not permitted identification of had- dock. This involves a fishery for mixed groundfish at Gloucester, Mass., wherein fish are iced and boxed at sea and unloaded at irregular hours di- rectly into trucks for shipment to New York. Species connposition cannot be

determined and such landings have appeared in statistical records only as "mixed" fish.

Since species taken in the industrial (trash) fishery are not recorded sepa- rately in normal commercial practice, we must rely on estimates from sam- plings of the landings. From available sampling data (Edwards, 1958), we can derive an estimated 400,000 pounds of haddock in industrial landings for Gloucester and 13,000 pounds for New Bedford for the 1956 haddock year. No sampling data are available for the Cape Cod, Mass., and Maine industrial fisheries in which some haddock are taken. The total estimate of 413,000 pounds landed is thus a minimal figure.

The 1956 industrial fishery landings of haddock can be divided into areas of capture approximately as follows:

LENGTH COMPOSITION OF CATCH

Length composition is determined by sampling procedures based upon sample lots consisting of 50 scrod or 100 large haddock selected at random from the landings. The lengths given herein represent the distance from tip of snout to the end of the median ray of the caudal fin (fork length). The measurements are recorded to the "centinneter below"; e.g., all fish from 39.0 to 39.9 are assigned to the 39 cm. interval. To obtain the true midpoint of the cm. interval, a correction of + 0.5 cm. must be added.

The standard procedure for estimat- ing the length composition of haddock landings irom. each statistical area- unit is as follows:

areas --Subdivisions 5Y North and South and 5Z East and West. A summary of samples of landed haddock is given in table 4.

(1) Weight of sample is determined from the average weights of fish of each length for the period in- volved (month, season, etc.). Length-weight tables for various ICNAF subdivisions are given by- Clark and Dietsch (1959).

(2) Weight of the landings is divided by the weight of the sample to ob- tain a factor representing the proportion of the landings which was sampled.

(3) Number of fish of each length in the sample is then multiplied by the factor obtained to estimate the total length composition for the landings.

The market categories of large and scrod are handled separately in the above procedure.

Discarded Portion

Samples were obtained at sea throughout 1956 aboard Boston large otter trawlers for the purpose of es- timating the composition of the haddock discard. In all, 16 sampling trips were made during which 21,500 haddock were measured. The length estimates for total discard for 1956 in 5Z East and West are summarized in table 3.

Landed Portion

Length data for landed haddock were obtained by agents stationed at all nnajor New England ports: Boston, Gloucester, New Bedford, Mass., and Rockland and Portland, Maine. The primary job of these agents was to interview trawler captains and sannple catches of species taken in the otter trawl fishery. The composition of the trawler fleets and their fishing prac- tices and areas of operation varied greatly from port to port, but the sampling coverage was sufficient to provide an adequate representation of the landings from each of our four

Length connpositions for 5Z are given in tables 5 to 17 for East and West sections by months and in sun-imary for the haddock year. The data are given by month to serve the purposes of evaluation of the ICNAF mesh regula- tion. The figures given in these and the following tables on length and age composition of the landings are esti- nnated total numbers of haddock of each length removed for human consumption by the entire fishery in the 1956 had- dock year.

Length compositions for 5Y are given in tables 18 to 22 for North and South sections by seasons and in sunnmary for the haddock year. The 5Y data are summarized by seasons to conserve space because a detailed monthly breakdown is not required as it is for subarea 5Z which supports a fishery that is much larger and has been under intensive study since 1931 and under regulation since 1953.

Too few samples were obtained from the industrial fishery to permit deriving length compositions of these landings.

AGE COMPOSITION OF CATCH

Haddock ages listed herein have been estimated from examination of scales taken from an area below the lateral line behind the second anal fin. The technique adopted is the usual one used in reading scales--the narrow bands of circuli which are formed during each winter are counted to estinnate the age of the fish. In conformance with past studies, February 1 is used as the standard birth date for all haddock. All fish older than 8 years are combined into the single category 9+. The methods used have been shown to provide re- liable estimates of age for haddock at least through age 5. There is some evidence that the estimates for older fish, particularly those 8 years and older, may be less reliable but these older fish fornn a negligible part of the

removals. Detailed discussions of age reading techniques for haddock and problems of reliability are given by- Arnold (1951), Clark (1958), Jensen and Clark (1958), and Kohler and Clark (1958).

Sample lots consist of the scales from 20 large or 1 5 scrod taken using a stratified random sample design.

The general method for determining age composition of the various units of removals is as follows:

(1) The readings from scrod and large haddock, for each statistical area are summarized separately by length and age, and the percent- age age distribution of each length is calculated.

(2) The number of fish of each length for the statistical area is broken down into numbers of each age for that length on the basis of the percentage representation of ages at each length in the sample.

(3) Haddock and scrod compositions are then added directly together to obtain the total age-length composition for the landings from each statistical area.

This procedure is nnodified for 5Z where we have determined a combined age proportion for each season and used it to break down the length fre- quency for each month of that season.

Discarded Portion

Age compositions of discarded had- dock have been estimated fronn scales obtained during the l6 sampling trips aboard commercial trawlers. Scales from 255 discard haddock v/ere col- lected in 1956. Age compositions of the discard for 5Z East and West are given in table 23. The figures repre- sent total reported discard of haddock from Subarea 5, since none were re- ported from 5Y.

Landed Portion

Age compositions for Subdivision 5Z for each month of the 1 956 haddock year are given in tables 24 to 62, separately

for East and West sections andinsunn- mary for both sections.

Age compositions for 5Y for each season of the 1956 haddock year are given in tables 63 to 77, separately for North and South sections and in sum- mary for both sections. The data are presented by 3-cnn. groups for economy of space since, as previously nnentioned, the 5Y material does not require such detailed presentation as that for 5Z.

The estimates given represent the total removals landed by the fishery for human consumption.

ABUNDANCE AND EFFORT

We have since 1931 routinely pre- pared estimates of haddock abundance and fishing effort for Subdivision 5Z. The methods for deriving these es- timates are set forth in detail by Rounsefell (1957). Briefly, the proce- dure consists of deriving the catch per day's fishing for a standardized group of large otter trawlers. Total landings are then divided by the standard catch per day to estinnate total effort in ternns of standard trawler days fished. This procedure is not applicable to the 5Y fishery since the haddock fishery there is of an entirely different nature being largely secondary to fisheries for other species and conducted by smaller and medium trawlers.

The estimates for 5Z are given in table 78 by month for East and West sections and in summary for the whole subdivision. It will be noticed that the sums of the individual "days fished" entries for months do not agree with seasonal totals. This is because these are calculated effort figures and have been done separately for each month and season.
