Peak produc- tion occurred from July-Sept, which accounted for 74% (30.7 million pounds) of the total landings in that biological year. High catches and extremely good levels of relative abundance occurred off the Texas coast in July and August. The peak in CPUE of almost 21400 pounds/day occurred in July but dropped to 1,400 pounds/day in August. Production of brown shrimp from Sept-Dec amounted to 14.1 million pounds with an average CPUE of around 650 pounds/day. In the Jan-Apr period, production amounted to only a half million pounds with the CPUE falling to an average of approximately 270 pounds/day"--Summary, paragraph 1.
