Description

Abstract: This report summarizes project progress in FY 1976 on the first phase of a survey on the continental shelf and upper continental slope off the coast of Washington. The second and final phase is a replicate survey scheduled for FY 1977. Objectives of the survey were to obtain estimates of biomass of fishes occupying the continental shelf and upper slope, with particular emphasis on flatfish; to collect the necessary data for estimating age composition, growth and mortality; to determine fish distribution; and to index year class strength of flatfishes important to the commercial fishery prior to their recruitment to the fishery. The survey was a cooperative effort between Oregon Department of Fish and 14ildlife, Washington Department of Fisheries and U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service. The Washington Department of Fisheries supplied one man-month of support, and data collected on Pacific hake by us were supplied to the National Marine Fisheries Service as part of the 1975 synoptic survey on hake conducted by N.M.F.S.
