ILLEGAL COD FISHING GETS UNALASKA COURT SYMPATHY – NO RIGHTS REMOVED – Ludger Dochtermann, Kodiak

September 9, 2015 North Pacific

Saturday, September 5, 2015, Deckboss blogspot news [http://deckboss.blogspot.com/] from the Alaska State Troopers stated, “State secures convictions against three trawlers, wins forfeiture of Pacific cod worth $106,326” — in a set of cases involving commercial fishing in closed waters as reported on February 24, 2015. The violations apparently occurred in the closed waters of Kagalaska Strait, east of Adak Island in the western Aleutians. The combined total of fines levied was, disgracefully, a mere $12,000.

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. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer.
