Shaker losses off charterboats are probably lower than off commercial vessels because sublegal salmon are landed sooner after hooking, and sport-caught sublegals are generally smaller and easier to handle than com- mercially-caught sublegals. The chinook and coho minimum size limits in the ocean commercial fishery are 66 cm TL and cm TL, respectively. Of the 16 coho sampled off the San Francisco Bay area, only one (6%) was sublegal (Table 4). Because of the small sample size, no coho shaker catch estimate was made. However, because the percentage of coho shakers for combined samples taken at San Francisco and Eureka was only 5% (5 shakers for 108 coho observed caught), coho shaker catches do not appear to be a major problem in the California sportfishery. 100. 1 1 1 I I I r FEB MAR APR MAY JUNE JULY AUG SEPT OCT NOV MONTH FIGURE 5.
