Sardine fishery quota slashed for 2013, but worries remain.- Oceana, “It is frankly unbelievable”, Pacific Fishery Management Council – catch levels will be lower in 2013

While catch levels will be lower in 2013 than in 2012, the fishery council ignored increasing catch rates by Canada and Mexico; ignored warnings from scientists that the stock is collapsing; and failed to account for the importance of sardines as prey for whales, seabirds and other fish like salmon and tuna, Oceana wrote. http://fis.com/fis/worldnews/worldnews.asp?l=e&ndb=1&id=57017

I think OCEANA are the ones ignoring increasing catch rates by Canada and Mexico, and should refocus on the problem. If there is a problem.

    The outrage!
    Just ignore the Mexico/ Canadian increase and blast the US fishery council that cut quota!
    If these clowns are such a bad assed world ENGO, why not use that world presence to beat on Canada and Mexico?
    Hollywood Stooges.
