By D. G. Reddin, R. Anthony, M. Andersen, and G. Andrew

Abstract

Information was presented on catch statistics for Labrador in angling fisheries and aboriginal food fisheries in 2001 along with environmental data collected at gauging stations on selected rivers. Total return information was summarised from counting facilities. Total landings of 6,478 salmon weighing 16,288 kg were recorded for the food fisheries in Labrador. Landings recorded by the angling fishery were 1,929 small salmon retained, 5,401 small salmon released, 326 large salmon retained and 1,566 large salmon released. Water levels in Labrador rivers were high in the spring and low throughout most of the summer. Low water continued well into the fall.
