ATLANTIC ERPS ADOPTED, FULL IMPLEMENTATION WILL TAKE TIME ASMFC Moves the Line for Menhaden but is Not Ready to Get Behind It by Pam Lyons Gromen, Executive Director

Atlantic menhaden management has reached a critical ERP Target & Threshold milestone. On August 5th, the Atlantic States Marine Commission’s (ASMFC) Atlantic Menhaden Lower fishing mortality Management Board voted unanimously to adopt eco- means more menhaden logical reference points (ERPs) as the basis for setting in the water annual catch levels. The vote was cause for celebration up and down the At- lantic Coast. Wild Oceans along with a broad coalition of fishermen and conservationists have fought for decades to protect menhaden’s role as forage. Numerous predators — from and to ospreys and humpback whales — depend on menha- den, and the new reference points are designed to ac- count for menhaden’s critical role in the food web. Menhaden ERP Target

ERPs are similar to traditional fishing reference points in Biomass BassStriped Biomass/ Target Menhaden Single-Species Target that both set targets (where you aim to be) and thresh- Menhaden ERP Threshold olds (where you want to avoid) to meet management Menhaden Single-Species Threshold objectives. The important difference is that ERPs are designed to Menhaden Fishing Mortality meet ecological objectives. In this case, menhaden fish- ing mortality (F) is set to maintain the striped bass popu- lation. When striped bass needs are accounted for, the menhaden target and threshold are lower than tradi- tional “single-species” reference points that are based solely on menhaden biology, leaving more menhaden in the water as forage.

2 COUNTRIES AGREE TO MAINTAIN BLUEFIN QUOTAS Historic Bluefin Fishing Offers Hope for Tomorrow by Theresa Labriola Pacific Program Director This year brought another round of record-breaking recreational Pacific bluefin opportunities to Califor- nia. Scattered schools started show- ing in late February before pushing into Northern California. The record 364-pound tuna landed at Newport Landing in October was not an outlier, as large bluefin continued to reward patient anglers. Of course, this has fishermen wondering: Have bluefin tuna recovered from the historically low levels of just 4 years ago? What’s keeping the big fish in California? How long will they stay, and what impact are we having on the future of the Photo courtesy of Bill Boyce population?

During these trying times in which we now find ourselves, I wanted to take a moment to reach out to you and say how extremely grateful we are for your support. Despite the impacts of the current pandemic, we have been able to make great strides in eliminating destructive gear like drift gill nets, garnering greater international attention and support for the Pacific’s largest , like striped marlin and bluefin tuna, and protecting critical forage fish stocks in the Atlantic, like menhaden and . But these accomplishments have only been possible because of the past generosity of you and others. We have much planned for 2021. The Wild Oceans team will be working to: yy Rebuild Pacific bluefin tuna & striped marlin through participation in international fishery management bodies. yy Prevent the development of commercial fisheries on bullet and frigate mackerels that are important forage for species like wahoo, and marlin. yy Keep longlines out of the Pacific and restore longline closures in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. yy Address climate change impacts and forage fish management within the next reauthorization of the Magnuson- Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. Your donation today will help ensure Wild Oceans continues to play a leading role in keeping the oceans wild for the future of fishing. Thank you and wishing you a healthy and safe Holiday season and 2021.

Rob Kramer, President

I want to help Wild Oceans continue to fight for the future of fishing!
