Interesting news re:commercial fishing in MA
I was told last night by the owner of a fish market that for the first time ever, commercial fishing for BLUEFISH will be closed next week in MA waters. It seems commercial gill netters have been making 5000 lb. hauls (his quote) and the reported catches are waaaaaay over what is considered "maximum sustainable yield" (I just love that one....). So perhaps for those who have wondered why they can't seem to find the bluefish as in years past this may be at least one of the reasons?
