Modeling to do

[okenk]

Priority order:

• Discards (decision has been made, question is what model to change)
• New maturity
• Expanded vs unexpanded comps (justification for change, what is the best practices)
• Q- try autoregressive, density-dependent, no extra SE (switch float to estimate)
• Ian email Rick about F method
• Zero-centered rec devs
• Take out commercial length data (fleet negative or lambda zero)
• Profile over M and R0, look at index fits
• Try no M prior (and then don't worry about max age)
• Try 3 sex-specific parameters instead of 2 (commercial)
• Try sex-specific recreational selectivity
• Try age-based instead of length-based selectivity
• Try age-based selectivity AND remove length data to explore impacts
• Update ageing error
• Update M prior
• Recent block for hake fleet (to better characterize recent removals, selectivity is based on years in 90s and 00s with more catch and more comp data)

Indices

• ORBS (ready) / OSP
• H&L survey
• oceanographic index (ready)
• SMURF (ready)
• Observer data (just need to save output)
