This study, which took place between 2001 and 2004, was conducted in the lagoons of Grande Entrée (GE1 and GE2 sites) and of Havre aux Maisons (HAM site) in the Îles-de-la-Madeleine. The principle objectives were to compare the survival, loss and growth of sea scallop cultures from five types of structures and assess the quantity of biological fouling on these structures. The tested structures were the earring (BO), the pocket net (FP), the pearl net (PJ), the oyster table net (PO) and the Wang-Joncas lantern (WJ). In the fall of 2001, the FP, PJ, PO and WJ structures were watered at the three sites, then sampled after six months, one year and two years. A second watering was made in the spring of 2002 with five types of structures, and samples were collected after three months, one year and two years. Some structures were cleaned during these tests. The survival rates after two culture years were under 40 % for the 2001 test and between 30-58 % for the 2002 test. There were two presumed causes of mortality, the first by handling during scallop watering operations, and the second was environmental in the fall of 2002, more noticeable in the Grande Entrée lagoon. Results showed a significant effect from the site and structure used on scallop survival. Two years after the 2001 cultures, scallop losses were more significant in the FP and WJ structures (12-81%) than in PJ and PO (under 8 %). Two years after the watering, the mean size of culture scallops from 2001 increased from 35-41 mm to 68- 84 mm, depending on the site and the structure. The highest mean sizes were obtained in the structures FP at GE1 and GE2 and WJ at HAM. Overall, the scallops from the BO and FP structures were largest. Growth in the PO was generally lower than the values observed in the pelagic structures tested. The effect of cleaning the structures on scallop survival, loss and growth varied and did not indicate any obvious trend between one and two culture years. For the BO, cleaning conducted at opportune moments would reduce detaching due to the high abundance of mussels. There was little fouling on the FP and cleaning was easy and could be done mechanically. The WJ was heavy, cumbersome and difficult to clean due to the strong adherence of fouling. The PO structure, on a benthic table, was bulky and difficult to handle. The overall results, technical and biological, appear to show that the BO and FP structures are likely the most interesting to use for cultures in the Îles-de-la-Madeleine lagoon environment. Scallop survival and growth in these structures was good.

A two-day workshop on redfish was held at the Maurice Lamontagne Institute on September 19th and 20th, 2007. This meeting gathered nearly 40 participants from research to management to industry. There were three objectives on the agenda. First, review the information on redfish (Sebastes sp.) available from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) Science sector for the assessment by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC). In fact, in its call for bids of the fall of 2006, COSEWIC was requesting that a report be produced on the status of redfish (Sebastes fasciatus and S. mentella), which triggered the assessment process for these species. The second objective was to present the recent data on the stock structure of redfish in the Northwest Atlantic in order to determine the biological relevance of management units 1 and 2. This objective followed a zonal workshop (DFO 2006) where the discussions did not lead to any consensus. The last objective of the workshop was to re-examine the relevance of maintaining the redfish index fishery in Unit 1, which has been under moratorium since 1995. Examining the information on redfish led to the discovery of complex structure patterns, but also to some reflection on the value of the data obtained and the methods used. The second objective led to a series of recommendations, including consolidating Units 1 and 2 into one unit for each of the two species: S. mentella and S. fasciatus. It was also recommended to consider the complexity of the structure patterns in the assessment process and in developing management and conservation measures. Finally, the meeting did not lead to any conclusion in terms of the relevance of maintaining the index fishery in Unit 1. It was suggested to conduct a redfish stock assessment by considering the overall data, including the index fishery data, prior to agreeing on this issue.
