A crew of five local shrimp fishermen were plucked from the sea Monday after their boat began to sink. The Secretary of the Navy of Mexico says personnel from the Fifth Naval Region at Isla Mujeres were called for a rescue mission after the five crew members required assistance when their shrimp boat quickly began sinking. The Kukulkan VI began to take on water while the crew were approximately 17 nautical miles (31 kilometers) north of Isla Mujeres.

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.
