Abstract

Since 1966, enlargement of specialized United States and Soviet hake fisheries led to scientific meetings and fishing agreements with provisions for exchanges of biological data by statistical areas where the catch exceeds 100 metric tons. While California area landings have not approached the qualifying level for data exchange, measurement data are presented in this report to complement other data for the hake resource. Hake in animal food samples were measured at Santa Barbara, Morro Bay, Fort Bragg, and Eureka. The majority of measurements were obtained at Santa Barbara where a declining trend in average sizes was noted for quarterly periods and for annual periods from 1966 to 1970. (23pp.)
