  • ban trawling

  • ITS THE SAME HERE IN VANCOUVER CANADA...STOCKS ARE STABLE...YHE DEPARTMENT OF FISHERIES ALWAYS EXPECTING TONS OF SOCKEYE.. They never come.. The're is never more fish.. Or to many fish...just less every year// Fish management in our oceans cant be handled by govt. Its almost like they dont care.. Get the fish from ocean to grocery store as cheap as possible cutting out gill netters .lively hood

  • If trawling was banned for 10 years in every country in the world, just imagine the fish stocks coming back to life.

  • funding by PEW... something stinks here

  • Black Sea has been over fished  already ,

    Bulgarian fisherman set up nets and cought 1 kg of small fish ... in March 2010 ....

    No fish left , Almost ... 80% of fish is missing from the Black Sea

  • greedy vandals of the sea.all  you think of is how much you can make today .

    TOMORROW does not exist is your dictionary.yes keep it up

  • this is shit! with the limits there are now you cant even get to the fucking docks till certian times.. its not nessary at all there plenty or fish in the sea.. and all of you being carefull your overdoing it! you will see is soon

  • What is sickening is the special interest groups spewing skewed data that supports their agenda. Tuna fish are migratory and their travel patterns frequently change. Follow the money....

  • they just wiped out everything

  • Ye mom is hillarious!!!
