Figure 5.— Distribution and apparent relative abundance of white marlin in the Atlantic Ocean. Data are from records of the 

 Japanese longline fishery, 1956-67. The catch per unit of effort (CUE) for each month in rectangle is the arithmetic mean of the 

 CUE of each month that the area in the rectangle was fished in the 12-yr period. CUE is the number offish caught per 100 hooks.
