Average lunar monthly catch of sardines in California for the 1954-55 through 1961-62 seasons

The catch per unit of effort of the sardine along thecoast of California has been published for the period 1932 to 1953. This paper continues the catch per unit of effort study through the 1961-62 season. Although the catch per unit of effort varied greatly during this later period, it never reached the high levels reported during the 1940's or decreased below the values reported for the disastrous seasons of 1952-53 and 1953-54. Mortalities and year class strengths are briefly discussed. (45pp.)
