SUMMARY: The purpose of the pre-assessment workshop is to review proposed data inputs, modeling approaches, and any other pertinent information to inform the 2025 stock assessment for yellowtail rockfish in the area north of 40ß10’ N. latitude. The goal of the pre-assessment workshop is to promote dialogue and a common understanding between assessment teams and data providers of the best data and analytical and modeling approaches applicable to these assessments. Stock assessment teams will solicit advice from data stewards, stakeholders, and fishery managers knowledgeable about these species. No management actions will be decided by the workshop participants. The participants’ role will be development of recommendations for consideration by the stock assessment teams assigned to conduct these assessments. The assessment for this stock is tentatively scheduled for peer review during a Stock Assessment Review (STAR) panel on May 19–23, 2025. The Pacific Council and the Pacific Council’s Scientific and Statistical Committee are scheduled to consider this draft assessment for use in informing management decisions at their September 2025 meeting in Spokane, WA.
