Abundant redfish

‘There are huge amounts of golden redfish on the Hali grounds and that needs to be kept in mind this close to the end of the quota year.

The latest Atlantic menhaden stock assessment accepted by the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) has concluded that Atlantic menhaden is healthy, not overfished, and that overfishing is not occurring. Significantly, this assessment was completed using new ecological reference points, standards that account for the needs of predator species when determining menhaden’s sustainable status. In the past, single-species stock assessments that found menhaden to be healthy and not overfished were criticised by some for not taking into account interdependencies between species. The ASMFC’s ecosystem-based reference points were developed over years, with support from industry, recreational fishermen, and environmental groups, to… [...]

Not too big to fail

In a strongly-worded warning ahead of the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC) upcoming WCPFC Science-Manager Dialogue (SMD) meeting, due to take place this month, the Global Tuna Alliance has issued a reminder that a significant group of companies are determined to keep tuna stocks in the ‘green zone.’ ‘We appreciate that the major tuna stocks in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean are currently ‘in the green1’ – with no overfished stocks or overfishing occurring,’ said Dr Tom Pickerell, Executive Director of the Global Tuna Alliance. ‘But to ensure this continues, we are calling on the Western and… [...]

Fiskerforum.dk has owned Trawlerphotos for many years, but as online trends and news consumption patterns change, we have decided to phase out the Trawlerphotos page in its current form, partly because it has been in existence for so long that technology has left it behind and updates are problematic – focusing instead on our other digital platforms.
Take a look at the Trawlerphotos page and group on Facebook and keep posting you pictures in those forums for them to be visible to everyone in the fishing industry.
