To tame the invasive Asian Carp, local chef pitches processing plant

April 8, 2015 Inland Fisheries

Plopping a 25-pound Asian carp in all its glorious ugliness onto a table in the middle of a conference room is a sure-fire way to get an audience’s attention.

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

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.
