Fisheries Commercial fishing continues to be a significant industry in Washington state, with nearly three billion pounds of fish and shellfish harvested annually, worth more than $1.6 billion at the wholesale level. Commercial fishing is also one of the highest-risk industries in the United States, but few harvesters are trained in the use of safety equipment or emergency procedures, and few training programs are available. Meanwhile commercial fisheries around the world are collapsing, and efforts in fisheries science are turning more to conservation of resources and finding ways to harvest fish stocks in a sustainable manner. Washington Sea Grant Program's Marine Advisory Services address fishing industries in a variety of ways: provide training classes, workshops, and testing for safety certifications; provide education and technical assistance on seafood handling, quality control, safety and use; conduct applied research projects to maximize the use of fisheries resources through control of bycatch.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study compared entanglement rates of seabirds and marine mammals and catch rates of salmon among up to three experimental gear treatments and a control (nylon monofilament netting) and among three time-of-day categories in two Washington non-treaty salmon fisheries: the 1996 sockeye fishery in Management Area 7, the San Juan Islands vicinity of north Puget Sound; and the 1995 fall chum fishery in Management Area 10, south Puget Sound. Because the scope of activities and seabird interactions were greater in the sockeye fishery than in the chum fishery, research in the sockeye fishery is emphasized. This research continued a university-industry research program begun in the 1994 non-treaty sockeye fishery and continued in a 1995 sockeye test fishery. Our goal was to develop methods that eliminate or significantly reduce the incidental capture of seabirds in salmon gillnet fisheries without significantly reducing the fishing efficiency of the nets. This work was funded by a grant from the National Marine Fisheries Service Saltonstall -Kennedy Grant Program and by Washington Sea Grant Program. Experimental nets incorporated either visual or acoustic alerts into traditional nylon monofilament gear. Visual barrier nets were monofilament nets with highly visible netting replacing the upper quarter (50 Mesh) or upper eighth (20 Mesh) of the net. Acoustic alert nets were monofilament nets with low frequency sound-emitting devices (pingers) attached to the corkline. Pingers were tested in the 1996 sockeye test fishery only. Fishing time was divided into three categories: morning change of light (AM COL), daytime, and evening change of light (PM COL). Puget Sound Gillnetters' Association fishing vessels were contracted by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) to fish experimental nets in a Washington State Test Fishery under our research protocol.

cooking your catch Congratulations On Your Catch! To make sure you eat your catch at its best, protect it from the beginning by cleaning, dressing, and freezing it as soon as possible. Prepare a fish for freezing in the same way you would for table use: scale, gut, remove the head and fins, wash thoroughly, and drain. Freeze small fish whole. They can be frozen in a block of ice by placing the fish, usually in a single layer, in a clean container with a tight-fitting lid. Cover the fish with cold water and freeze. Fillet or steak large fish. Wrap the fish in heavy-duty aluminum foil, plastic freezer wrap or heavy-duty freezer bags. Separating fish layers with two thicknesses of packaging material will allow for easier thawing. Remember to label the package with the date it was frozen. REMOVE THE FAT Low level organic contaminants tend to accumulate in fatty parts of fish (arrows) and should be removed.

Eastern oyster , the blue crab , the striped bass. Yet these and other estuarine species have experienced unpredictable highs and lows over time, and in some cases severe depletion. To help in the effort to protect and manage the Bay's important fisheries, Maryland Sea Grant has sponsored innovative research, drawing on the best scientific expertise available in the region. Beyond this, Sea Grant has worked to highlight the practical implications of fisheries research, and to strengthen the link between science and policy making. Maryland Sea Grant has worked diligently to provide key information to help resource managers and others gain the best possible understanding of such issues as habitat and stock dynamics and their relation to the Bay's ecosystem processes. A particular focus has been the oyster, Crassostrea virginica, and early on Sea Grant published Maryland's Oysters: Research and Management, to detail the management history and the current status of Maryland's oyster fishery. More recently Maryland Sea Grant has cooperated with the Chesapeake Bay Commission, the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office and other stakeholders to examine the current status of the Chesapeake Bay blue crab Oysters Blue Crabs Fisheries Research ...

Finfish Aquaculture In Maryland and the mid-Atlantic region, major cultured species are striped bass and their hybrids, catfish and tilapia. Sea Grant Extension specialists are developing materials that will help prospective operators better evaluate issues surrounding the operational efficiency and economic viability of commercial finfish aquaculture. Specialists are also working with growers who have been exploring the development of an innovative cooperative that will combine harvests of cultured fish and wild-caught fish for processing and marketing. Shellfish Aquaculture Reliance on wild harvests and oyster seed from public grounds, extensive loss of oyster reef habitat through overharvesting and siltation from land runoff, and extensive parasitic disease for nearly a decade have led to the decline of Maryland's public oyster fishery and left the private one in near collapse (see ). While investing in oyster culture is a risky proposition, there are ways to farm oysters and manage around disease, e.g., from moving oysters to lower salinity waters to growing them in off-bottom containers, which can decrease time of exposure to potentially harmful conditions. In this way, marketable oysters can be produced in shorter time periods. Oyster Gardening The Oyster Gardening Program is a cooperative effort of the Oyster Alliance, which includes the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, the Maryland Sea Grant Extension Program, the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science and the Oyster Recovery Partnership. The program brings together scientists and citizens to help enhance the Chesapeake Bay system's stressed oyster populations.

South Carolina Sea Grant Consortium SCSGC Biennial Sea Grant Request for Proposals back to RFP back to Table of Contents STRATEGIC ISSUE: SUSTAINABLE AQUACULTURE and FISHERIES Strategic Goal 6 : Enhance the development of viable and sustainable aquaculture and fisheries in South Carolina and the region. The commercial fishing industry (fish, oysters, clams, shrimp and crabs) remains an important component of local, coastal economies and ways of life. More than 2,000 commercial fishermen harvest an average (since 1993) 14.7 million pounds of seafood worth about $33 million (ex-vessel price) annually. Aquaculture represents a relatively new commercial enterprise in South Carolina, but stable operations in marine shrimp, crawfish and hard clam culture have already been established. In the last decade, aquaculture farm-gate value has more than doubled. Most recently the aquaculture industry in South Carolina has been threatened by disease, competition from overseas imports, concerns with regulations, and questions about its potential for adverse environmental impacts. The objectives for this program area are to 1. Enhance the development of viable and sustainable aquaculture industries in South Carolina.
