Description:The AFSC has conducted an annual longline survey of sablefish and other groundfish in Alaska from 1987 to 2011. The survey is a joint effort involving the AFSC’s Auke Bay Laboratories (ABL) and Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering (RACE) Division. It replicates as closely as practical the Japan-U.S. cooperative longline survey conducted from 1978 to 1994 and also samples gullies not sampled during the cooperative longline survey. In 2011, the thirty-third annual longline survey of the upper continental slope of the Gulf of Alaska and eastern Bering Sea was conducted. One hundred-fiftytwo longline hauls (sets) were completed during 25 May - 28 August 2011 by the chartered fishing vessel Ocean Prowler. Sixteen kilometers of groundline were set each day, containing 7,200 hooks baited with squid.
