This data is from the Newfoundland and Labrador Region Multispecies Trawl survey, specific to Snow Crab from 2018-25, with only successful tows included in the database. Details of annual survey coverage and an overview of the survey program can be found in Rideout et al. (2025) and references therein. This trawl survey follows a depth-stratified random design, designated by type = 1 (Survey). From 2021-23, a comparative fishing program (i.e., direct side-by-side paired comparison between old and new vessels) was undertaken to determine differences in catchability due to vessel changes and associated modifications to the trawl gear with the retirement of the CCGS Alfred Needler and CCGS Teleost (called ‘old vessels’) and the introduction of the CCGS Capt. Jacques Cartier and CCGS John Cabot (called ‘new vessels’). During this period other set types are in the dataset (6 and 7) from paired tows and all station allocation may not have been stratified random. The DFO NL Region comparative fishing success varied by year, NAFO division, and vessel combinations and resulted in conversion factors to adjust the catches of Snow Crab in the old vessels time series into the same units as…
