Shellfish fishery catch data is based on Stock Assessment harvest
logbook program summaries provided by DFO & relevant Pacific
Stock Assessment Review Committee (PSARC) papers. Geographic data is
based on commercial catch reported by DFO
fishery management subarea, NOT on actually fishing locations
associated with each fishery. Click
here to find out more about the
commercial catch data and map analysis.

This graph represents
the commercial catch data used to derive the yearly catch maps. Click on each year to see the
geoduck supply for that specific year. The Purple
blocks represent UNDISCLOSED commercial catch supply, the total catch
within all subareas where catch data was not provided due to DFO
confidentiality guidelines. Red blocks
represent HIGH supply area, the highest catch subareas that make up the
first 40% of the total annual catch for all subareas with catch
information. Orange blocks represent
MODERATE supply areas, the subareas that make up the next ~40% of total
annual catch. Yellow blocks represent LOW
supply areas, the subareas that make up the final 20% of catch. A
larger, more detailed version of the catch graph is also available.
