69 Summary Managers rely on survey abundance es.mates when discussing poten.al fishery openings Confident that the survey is capturing trends and variability in local Tanner crab popula.ons Harvest strategy provides reasonable recommenda.ons and a star.ng point for sebng harvest levels However, large numbers of crab seen as juveniles are not retained in the popula.on to legal size 69
