Description

Abstract: Oregon pink shrimp (Pandatus jordani) landings in 1978 were a record 56,997,105 pounds (25,840 mt) over 8 million pounds (17%) more than was landed in 1977, the previous record year {Figure l, Table 1). Increased effort was probably the main contributing factor to the record landings. A total of 186 vessels landed shrimp in Oregon, up from the 100 that made landings in 1977. Other factors were the continued strong market demand, favorable weather and high abundance and/or availability of shrimp from the Siuslaw River south to Cape Blanco during the first four months of the season and also off Brookings during most of the season (April 1 - October 15).
