The co-author of a new study in the Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences says Newfoundland and Labrador's northern cod have returned to their historical migration patterns — with potentially major implications for the provincial fishery.

George Rose, co-author of the study with the Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries at the University of British Columbia, says the new data suggests a return to the commercial cod fishery one day is possible.
 

"The research shows that these fish can do this," said Rose, "I'm not willing yet to throw in the towel on this stock."

The study followed 90 large northern cod equipped with tags that transmitted data to satellites for over a year. Researchers found northern cod have re-established historical migration patterns and confirmed capelin can influence their timing and duration in inshore waters.
