Abstract
Positive correlations are found between monthly discharge of the St. Lawrence River and annual regional catch of American lobster (Homarus americanus) and Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus). Lag periods to account for age at maturity or commercial size permit some predictive possibilities.Keywords
