September 20, 2018 New England

“Carlos Rafael makes millions as the owner of one of the largest commercial fishing businesses on the East Coast but will his big mouth get him hooked in an undercover IRS sting with agents posing as Russian mobsters?” SPOILER ALERT: Yes, it will.

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.
