    Science, Service, Stewardship HMS Compliance Guide: Commercial Fishing Guide for Complying with the Atlantic Tunas, Swordfish, Shark, and Billfish Regulations Published April 2019 Office of Sustainable Fisheries Highly Migratory Species Management Division https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/topic/atlantic-highly-migratory-species 1 Introduction to Atlantic Highly Migratory Species Management Atlantic highly migratory species (HMS) include tunas, swordfish, sharks, and billfishes. These species are managed in the Atlantic Ocean, including the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico, by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries) under the authority of the Secretary of Commerce, with consideration for the domestic and international aspects of these fisheries. Management of these species is outlined in the 2006 Consolidated Atlantic Highly Migratory Species Fishery Management Plan (2006 Consolidated HMS FMP) and its amendments. NOAA Fisheries frequently modifies the regulations to meet fishery management goals and requirements. This guide is intended to provide a plain language summary of how to comply with the HMS regulations for Atlantic tunas, swordfish, sharks, and billfishes. Important regulatory changes and corrections since previous versions of the Compliance Guide were published include, but are not limited to: Effective Date Description of Change October 2018 Measurement of Bigeye and Yellowfin Tuna Damaged through Predation by Sharks and Other Marine Species: If a bigeye and/or yellowfin tuna carcass has been damaged (i.e., bitten) by a shark or another marine species, it may be retained and landed if the remainder of the fish meets the minimum size of 27 inches (69 cm). No tissue may be cut away from or other alterations made to the damaged area of the fish.

  • BLACK BOX "Positive Voltage Control" the Scotty Black Box - How & Why There Has Been Much Research Into the Concept of Using Electricity to Catch Fish
    FISHING, MARINE & OUTDOOR PRODUCTS BLACK BOX "Positive Voltage Control" The Scotty Black Box - How & Why There has been much research into the concept of using electricity to catch fish. Commercial fishing vessels have been using Black Box technology for years and now recreational fishermen are tapping into this resource. The 20 foot Load Black Box has proven to be very Line & effective in trolling, mooching, Connector jigging and more. The purpose of Sleeve this publication is to explain why. Fish & Electricity No. 1201 Russian scientists first discovered Black Box that bony and cartilaginous fish respond to the presence of electricity in the water. Many species use electric signals to communicate, some repel predators with it and others use electricity to navigate. Salmon, among others, are attracted to a positive charge and repelled by a negative charge. By maintaining a steady and appropriate positive charge on your downrigger wire, it is possible to attract fish and keep them interested in your lures. The Black Box does this in both salt and fresh water. Electrolysis To understand the Black Box, one must first understand the principle of electrolysis. This process is also known as galvanic action. Metals are ranked according to how strongly they react with other metals. The lower they are on the galvanic scale (or the less "noble") the more strongly they react. When dissimilar metals are placed in an electrolytic solution, electricity flows between them (basically: a battery) and corrosion occurs. The difference in nobility, or ranking, of metals determines how much electricity will be generated. Zinc, which is very low in nobility, is used in sacrificial anodes on boats to prevent corrosion of metal parts because it will corrode long before other metals.

    Vol. 15, No. 9 May, 1959 Heerman Gulls Published by the VICTORIA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY Victoria, B.C. 105 THE V ICTORIA NATURAL I ST Published by THE VICTORIA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY Vol.15, No.9 MAY 1959 OUR COVER The gulls of Victoria are an essential part of the life of our City, but to most of us they are just 'sea-gulls Actually at least ten species visit Victoria, the only resi• dent ones being the glaucous-winged; others come in their season, some to winter here, others to visit. They present an interesting study, and often a perplexing challenge to bird students; some of the species being so like others,and the plumages of the same species varying so much, that iden• tification can be difficult. The Heerman gull, pictured on the cover, is one little known to most people, but it is a regular visitor, each year arriving in good numbers between July 1st and 10th, and re• maining until the Autumn. It is a medium sized species, length about 20 inches (the glaucous-winged being twenty-six inches), with a very dark back, and startlingly white head and neck in the adults. It can be readily separated from all others by its red bill and black feet. The nesting grounds of the Heerman gull are in the Gulf of California and elsewhere on the west coast of Mexico It migrates as far north as Victoria and as far south as Guatemala. Around Victoria it will generally be found on the kelp beds which surround our coast.
