twoindex has orange roughy catches with hypothetical cpue

Description

twoindex is a 35 x 4 data.frame of fishery data made up of smoothed real catches but two simulated indices of relative abundance. This data-set is designed to be used to illustrate the implementation of surplus production models when there are more than one time-series of relative abundance indices. This is not currently implemented in the book but is put here for use by readers should they wish to pursue this approach. The indices have been designed to generate a workable answer but also require the use of a penalty on harvest rates to avoid massively inflated harvest rates well above 1. Instead of using simpspm, spm, and negLL1, we need to use simpspmM, spmCE, and negLLM. The cpue series are hypothetical and have been designed to illustrate the use of penalty1 and the use of multiple indices of relative abundance. The real stock assessment uses acoustic survey indices and also uses many years of age composition data inside Stock Synthesis 3, not surprisingly the inclusion of real time-series of indices and of age-composition data leads to very different results.
