Haddock 2019
From NOAA/NMFS:
Reminder for Recreational Fishermen
Recreational fishing measures from fishing year 2018 for the Gulf of Maine cod and haddock fishery remain in place until we develop and implement any changes in fishing year 2019.
The recreational Gulf of Maine haddock fishery reopens April 15, 2019:
Bag Limit: 12 fish
Minimum size: 17 inches
Gulf of Maine cod possession is prohibited.
The New England Fishery Management Council has recommended fishing year 2019 (May 1, 2019-April 30, 2020) recreational groundfish measures. We are currently developing the proposed rule. We do not expect to publish a final rule implementing any changes by May 1, 2019. Therefore, the 2018 regulations will remain in effect until they are replaced.
For more, read the permit holder letter posted on our website.
