DFO announced on Friday a limited STRIPED BASS fishery, from May 1 to May 15 in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence. This species was at a low point around 2000 and received protection, but in the past few years evidence has mounted of high population numbers - resulting in large numbers of salmon smolts being eaten. DFO will also undertake research on the Striped Bass.
