Description
Summary:The regulation of any fishery depends for its direction upon the knowledge of the biology of the fish involved. As the haddock has been one of the more important marine food fishes even before marine biological investigation was initiated in the fishing areas of the northwest Atlantic, it has periodically received attention from biologists working in these areas. Since the end of World War II with the advent and use of more efficient aids and methods for catching groundfish, the problem of regulation has become more acute.
