Caplin

Early in the season, directly the ice breaks up, a little fish called the caplin, which is about the size of a smelt, runs inshore in great schools of countless millions, to spawn. ❋ Dillon Wallace (1901)

The caplin is a small fish, about the size of a smelt or a little larger, and is caught in the neighborhood of Hamilton Inlet and south. ❋ Dillon Wallace (1901)

Hearn charges the province is living in a dictatorship, and that collectively the provincial cabinet doesn't have the "guts of a caplin" for kowtowing to the premier. ❋ CC (2008)

Still, this was hard physical labor, and sometimes unpleasant by current standards: spreading cods heads between the transplanted cabbages, for example, or stable manure and caplin on potatoes as the men followed behind, trenching and covering the fertilized seeds or plants with soil, were hardly tasks for those fastidious in nature. ❋ Unknown (2005)

"“He''s talking about a 3NO stock - that''s the context he''s talking about and that''s the context we would support an offshore caplin allocation for him to be used in Harbour Breton,"” Rideout told The Telegram. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

The report showed that several members of the current government - including Premier Danny Williams and Rideout, along with Trevor Taylor, Loyola Hearn, Bill Matthews, Norm Doyle, Roger Grimes, and others  - had signed off on a recommendation in the report to place a moratorium on the commercial caplin fishery. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

"“I''m not aware in the history of this province that there'Â's been a Canadian or Newfoundland company to have ever received a caplin quota - maybe back in the 1970s or something, but I''m not aware there''s ever been an over-65-foot caplin fishery in Canadian waters,"” Reid said. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

Elsewhere, there are reports that Barry needs a quota of 50, 000 tonnes of caplin to use in the Harbour Breton plant which will now supply fishmeal to his mink and salmon farms. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

Reid is also concerned about the precedent it would set if a processor, like Barry, were granted a caplin quota. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

"“Even if there were an increase in the caplin quota, normally, it''s the inshore fishermen, those under 65 feet, who would get first dibs on that." ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

Rideout dismissed the notion, claiming several of the people involved in that all-party committee report backed off on the caplin moratorium recommendation shortly after the report was released. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

Most of the caplin science Curran said he is aware of is based largely on inshore stocks. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

Whether or not there is an increase in that region remains to be seen, but Rideout said caplin stocks offshore and in the Gulf are, essentially, unrelated in terms of granting quotas. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

And he fears desperation could lead to rash decision-making in terms of granting all-important caplin and herring quotas essential to the Barry plan for Harbour Breton. ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)

"“In talking to officials at DFO Department of Fisheries and Oceans, there''s very little scientific data collected in recent years to indicate there should be an increase in caplin quota." ❋ Ed Hollett (2006)
