Description:"The pollock, Pollachius virens (L.), constitu tes a significant portion of the groundfish biomass in the Scotian Shelf and Gulf of Maine regions; its economic importance has increased considerably in recent years with declines in abundance of traditional species. Nominal catches (landIngs) have tripled in the last two decades from 22,800 metric tons (mt) in 1968 to 68,900 mt in 1986. Canada has accounted for 66% of the total nominal catch since 1960, followed by the United States with 26%. Distant-water fieets (DWFsl, primarily from Eastern European countries, have accounted for the remalnder. United States recreational fisheries have also taken minor quantities (usually <1,000 mt in recent years, much of whIch was released alive)"--Introduction.
