Brier Island fisherman Jesse Tudor shows off 17-pound lobster

April 1, 2015 Canada

Jesse Tudor says he’s been looking for a big catch and finally got it on March 27. “We thought, ‘Finally we got a big one,’ because we’ve been hunting for that bugger for a while and it finally came up,” he told CBC News. This isn’t the biggest lobster Tudor has caught. He once got one that was just under 19 pounds. The latest catch was on Chad and Sisters Two, captained by Chad Graham in southwestern Nova Scotia.

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer.
