Latest Scotian Shelf Science Advice, Nov 2014 Based on the survey, the total biomass estimate of 39,381 (95% confidence interval 32,435-46,328) mt remained approximately stable at a high level in 2014, decreasing only 1.5% from 2013. Although the stock is expected to continue to gradually decline in 2015, the high fishable and spawning stock biomass in 2014 suggests that a status quo TAC will not exceed the removal reference in 2015. However, given the small size of the 2009-2012 year classes, reactive TAC reductions will be required if the stock declines towards to the Cautious Zone.
