Overview
Effects of catch and release angling on Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., of the Conne River, Newfoundland (Dempson et al. 2002.
Fisheries Management & Ecology,
9
(3), pg. 139-147)
This paper from Dempson and his colleagues at Fisheries and Oceans Canada in Newfoundland documents the benefits of catch-and-release on fish populations. They investigated sport-caught Atlantic Salmon against a control group of trap-caught salmon showing that there is a statistically significant benefit from catch and release policies. The results should extrapolate to the management of other anadromous fisheries.
