You must be the one kidding us. Well, fuel prices aren't that bad. They must be out on a pleasure cruise, no?

Can't wait for the day regulators do everyone a service shut these guys down.

Photoshop? Are you implying that this is all a fabrication??

These boats are wiping out all of the food that larger fish eat, and they are crushing the river herring populations.

I don't know what your agenda is, but you are doing a good job of making yourself look foolish.

Anti-commercial? Hah. Right. Nice try.

And sorry, no brazilians here, just mexicans.

And you're quite behind the times, lots of mexicans on the boats now.

Right. Those boats are expensive. good thing the limits justify the cost of owning the boats.

These are 200ft fishing machines. This is not ArcBait getting 100,000lbs of pogies (in a closely monitored fishery) this is 100% different and not a local fishery. How many of these herring are staying in the US?

Yep, they sit on the west side of the plant on Fish Island all year till the Herring are here.

IIRC it all gets shipped offshore.

from what i have learned they have found a loop hole by hireing a guy who holds licenses in RI and pay him a share- So what they are doing is legal- pair trawling is legal too...

they will probably wipe out 1/2 of gilbert stewart herring runs fish..

ASMFC Atlantic Herring Section to Meet January 7, 2011


The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission's Atlantic Herring Section will meet from 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. on January 7, 2011, at the Sheraton Providence Airport Hotel, 1850 Post Road, Warwick Rhode Island. This Section will review and consider approval of Draft Addendum IV for Public Comment. Draft Addendum IV proposes to allow small mesh bottom trawl and small purse seine vessels an additional landing day or two per week on 'days out' of the fishery. The additional landing days are intended to allow smaller day-boats an equal amount of fishing days as larger vessels that fish for several days prior to landing. In addition to including management options, Draft Addendum IV will address the potential impact to river herring stocks. If approved, Draft Addendum IV will be released for public comment in mid-January. The Section will take final action at the ASMFC Winter Meeting the week of March 21, 2011. Meeting materials will be posted on the Commission website athttp://www.asmfc.org/meetings.htm as they become available.


For more information, please contact Christopher Vonderweidt, Atlantic Herring FMP Coordinator, at cvonderweidt@asmfc.org.
