May 18, 2016 National, Pacific

Albacore tuna news: ‘Wicked Tuna’ will be filmed out of Ilwaco. There’s only one Wicked Tuna, and its out of Gloucester! The Tuna Club in Ilwaco has informed me of some upcoming events for albacore fishermen. • TV producer Phil Lander is working for Pilgrim Studios on a new show for the History Channel about commercial albacore fishermen in the Ilwaco/Astoria area of the “Pacific Graveyard.” They are casting the show now, and are looking for interesting boat captains with big personalities. If you are one and want to audition for the show, contact [email protected]. This should be an interesting show with local fishermen on commercial albacore boats. Read the rest here 12:52

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.
