GSI is the ratio of gonad weight to body weight * 100. b.Average monthly landings and trips from 1994-2002 in the NC mullet fishery.6.1.5 Primary Counties of LandingsForty-four percent of the total harvest was landed in Carteret County from 1972-2002,over three times the next closest landings value were from Dare County (Table 6.1). The yearto-yearproportion of total, statewide, landings taken by Carteret County has fluctuated widelybetween, 21% to 66%, since 1972 (Figure 6.6). Carteret County harvest share peaked in 1990(66%) and has since declined. A decline in landings from the beach seine fishery, which occursin Bogue Banks, is responsible for much of the reduced harvest in Carteret County. DareCounty and Pamlico County harvests have increased over recent years (1994-2002) comparedto the rest of the State (Figure 6.6). In 2002, steadily rising landings in Dare County essentiallyequaled landings in Carteret County (Figure 6.6).30
