News from NOAA about fishing

I got this Email today, and thought it could be useful to some here.

new regs

The good news...
If all gets passed before the season reopens in March, we should be able to fish up to 75 fathoms/ 450'...
Cowcod and Yelloweye will still be off limits for a few more years until their stock rebuild.
Sculpin will be available all year long...and Ling Cod limits will be reduced to only one fish.

The bad news...
It seems like the commercial guys are also getting areas opened up to them for their horrible fishing practices...trawls and longlines... "Hook and line" and "traps" I can live with.
And they get increased quotas...a couple increases that are over 100%.
As Dr Lowe says...incremental increases would be better than 100% or more...!

Great stuff on the radio show this morning on the possible new regs and all kinds of rockfish and bass science info...check out the archives for some interesting listening while in traffic next time...you can always skip the adds and promo talk about their advertisers if it gets to you...

This is probably bad news with commercial bottom trawlers coming back. Oh well, it's probably all based on junk science anyway.. they thought it would take 90 years to recover the fish population and here we are only 15 years later.

science

"Oh well, it's probably all based on junk science anyway.."
Alanw...if you listen to Don Hansen when he calls in to talk about the "new good science" used for these new possible regs in the first hour of the radio show, you just might have a different opinion...If anyone in our So Cal fishing biz knows good science for regulations it's Don. He has been involved with fisheries management and the associated US and international government agencies for as long as I can remember...For those of you that don't know him...the Hanson's own Dana Wharf and Don has been involved his whole life defending recreational fishing.

How close can they come now? I saw the research document and I am not sure. My understanding is they opened up 3000 square miles.

Also, Do commercial fishermen go after Sculpin?


This is only for discussion. There is nothing we can do about it. I would not start a business counting on this fishery being available.

Also, a fellow kayaker mentioned a DFW warden told them they could keep 1 Canary rockfish. I found out this was since March. I think it will be 2 next year.
