Description:"This assessment of the scup (Stenotomus chrysops) stock along the Atlantic coast (Massachusetts to North Carolina) is an update through 2010 of commercial and recreational fishery catch data, research survey indices of abundance, and the analyses of those data. The scup stock was not overfished and overfishing was not occurring in 2010 relative to the biological reference points established in the 2008 Northeast Data Poor Stocks (DPS) assessment. The fishing mortality rate (F) was estimated to be 0.040 in 2010, below the fishing mortality threshold reference point = FMSY = F40% = 0.177. Spawning Stock Biomass (SSB) was estimated to be 186,262 metric tons (mt) = 411 million lbs in 2010, above the biomass target reference point = SSBMSY = SSB40% = 92,044 mt = 203 million lbs"--Executive summary.
