Fowle, Suzanne (1993). Fish for the Future: A Citizen's Guide to
Federal Marine Fisheries Management. Center for Marine
Conservation, Washington, D.C.
This guide explains how to become a fishery conservation activist. It
describes the tools to advocate conservation through fishery management. In
the guide is found background information on the terms and definitions used in
fishery management, including gear types and management strategies; facts
about the decline in fish populations and management failures; an explanation
of the federal fishery management during this process; and suggestions on how
to make your voice heard in Congress and at local public hearings and how to
write effective letters.

Fox, William W., Jr. (1975). "Fitting the Generalized Stock Production
Model by Least-Squares and Equilibrium Approximation." Fishery
Bulletin, 73(1):23-37.
A least-squares method for fitting the generalized stock production to
fishery catch and fishing effort data which utilizes the equilibrium
approximation approach is described. A weighting procedure for providing
improved estimates of equilibrium fishing effort and an estimator of the
catchability coefficient are developed. A computer program PRODFIT for
performing the calculations is presented. The utility and performance of
PRODFIT is illustrated with data from a simulated pandalid shrimp population.

MAFAC, F/AKC, and U.S.D.O.C.
A speech that identifies the need for improved biological, economic, and
sociological data to resolve fishery conflicts between commercial and
