September 11, 2016 International News

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev spent their day-off on Saturday in the Novgorod region of Central Russia, eating dinner with local fishermen and tasting delicious fish soup on the Lipno Island. During their boat trip on Lake Ilmen, both politicians met with fishermen who were sitting at a fire and making soup. The leaders stayed for dinner, chatting with the fishermen for over one and a half hours.

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. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count.
