Cod, Atlantic Price Questions

When is Atlantic cod most available for fishing?
Cod concentrate in deep waters during winter, move northward to spawn off Newfoundland and Labrador in spring, and disperse along the coast in summer. Fishing seasons are therefore aligned with these migration patterns.
What gear is allowed for cod fishing in NAFO waters?
The fishery is limited to fixed‑gear types such as gillnets, longlines, handlines, cod traps, and cod pots, with specific mesh‑size and net‑number restrictions. Mobile gear is prohibited for cod in many areas.
How do harvest control rules affect cod catches?
A harvest control rule sets total removal limits based on the spawning stock biomass level. If the biomass falls below a defined threshold, total removals are capped at a fixed amount (e.g., 500 t) and increase only as the stock recovers.
