Standardized CPUE of Pacific saury (Cololabis saira) caught by the Japanese stick-held dip net fishery up to 2024

    We updated the standardized catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) of Pacific saury caught by the Japanese stick-held dip net fishery up to 2024 for the stock assessment conducted by NPFC. CPUE was standardized by a generalized linear model (GLM) incorporating explanatory variables, year, month, fishing area, vessel size, and sea surface temperature. The standardized CPUE in 2024 was the fifth lowest since 1994 and remained at a low level.
