To evaluate whether recreational catches exceeded any of the recreational sub-ACLs, the average annual recreational catch for
     FY 2011 through FY 2013 was compared to the average annual recreational sub-ACLs for the stock for FY 2011 through FY 2013.
Recreational estimates based on Marine Recreational Information Program (MRIP) data.
GOM cod and GOM haddock receational catch estimates are based on the Fishing Effort Survey (FES).
