Witch flounder (Glyptocephalus cynoglossus) in the Spanish Fishery in NAFO Regulatory Area (Divisions 3LM and 3NO) 1991-94
The by-catch of witch flounder in the. Greenland halibut Spanish fishery in the NAFO Regulatory Area was analyzed during the period 1991 to 1994. A total of 32483 hauls were sampled. Data from 3N0 Spanish bottom trawl survey were also included in this analysis. Total catch was estimated for this per...
