The management policy of the Fish Commission of Oregon concerning the Pacific pink shrimp, (Pandalus jordani) has resulted in regulations which apply to all shrimp along the Oregon coast and do not recognize separate populations. There are several shrimp grounds along the 300-mile length of the continental shelf off Oregon...
Research cruises were made between August 28, 1967, and June 19, 1968, to study the vertical distribution and movements of pink shrimp, Pandalus jordani, off Tillamook Head in 68-80 fathoms. Shrimp traps suspended from surface to bottom, midwater trawl, and bottom shrimp trawl nets were used. Results are discussed in...
On July 1, 1969, the Fish Commission of Oregon, under contract by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, began a 1-year study of the pink shrimp (Pandalus jordani Rathbun) off Tillamook Head, Oregon. The primary goal was to determine the seasonal movement of this special within a given area. The study...
The purpose of this research was to explore the impact of finfish bycatch on the ocean shrimp Pandalus jordani fishery using two methods. One method looked at the breakage of the shrimp by finfish bycatch in the nets. The other looked at the impact of bycatch on fishing decisions. At-sea...
“The purpose of the 1979 survey was to obtain standing stock biomass estimates of shrimp off Oregon in the area between 35-145 fm from Cape Blanco (lat 42°54′ N) to the Columbia River (Lat 46°15′ N) and to determine age and sex composition and average size (count per pound) of...
Introduction:
On July 1, 1969, the Oregon Fish Comnission began a one-year study to assess the movements and abundance of pink shrimp (P. jordani) in a specific area off Oregon. The principal objectives of the study were as follows:
1) Determine the benthic movements of pink shrimp in the area...
“During the report period, two survey cruises were completed off Oregon; 96 tows were made in the fall of 1966 and 173 in the spring of 1967. Cruise reports were written for each cruise. In addition, logs showing tow location, length, catch, and other data were distributed to interested fishermen...
The ocean pink shrimp (Pandalus jordani) fishery is monitored by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife through the use of logbooks, fishtickets and market samples. From these sources, catch and effort statistics are developed as wen as estimates of age composition and count per pound (grade) for pink shrimp....
