April 14, 2014 Mid Atlantic

“The crew of the fishing vessel Mary Elizabeth did a great job clearing the deck of the vessel, which aided in the quick deployment of the rescue swimmer onto the vessel to assess the medical condition of the crewmember,” said Lt. Cmdr. Ian Stal, a helicopter pilot who flew on the case. “Good communications between the crew of the vessel and the Coast Guard helicopter crew made for a safe hoist and transport of the fisherman.” Read more here 13:52

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

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.
