Fisheries: In this episode, we see the surprising news that the U.S. government is opening up parts of its marine protected areas (MPAs) to commercial fishing. This rollback of protections in the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument has sparked debate about the future of sustainable fisheries and marine biodiversity. Ocean: We explore what this decision signals for global ocean governance and why it could undermine years of conservation progress. Focusing on political motivations and international implications, we ask the hard questions: Are MPAs truly protected if they can be so easily undone? And how should ocean advocates respond?

The Peninsula Pulse's annual Sustainability issue, out on April 18, contains the stories and voices of people across Door County who are working in some aspect of the climate-preparedness realm, whether through observations, data collection or actions. One of those voices and stories comes from Charlie Henriksen, a commercial fisherman for 50 years, owner of Henriksen Fisheries since 1987, and Henriksen's Fish House, a retail operation, since 2022. In “Changing Waters,” Henriksen wrote for the Pulse about Door County's fishing industry and how it's navigating a new normal. Here, he talks with Debra Fitzgerald about the state of the fisheries, sharing knowledge gleaned from a life lived on the water.

McKenna Peterson is a pro skier, that's rad, but being the captain of the Atlantis and an Alaskan Commercial Fisherman is what separates her badassery from the rest of the pro ski world. Born into a ski bum family, McKenna had early Olympic dreams, but racing never materialized for her. Neither did big mountain contests, but they helped McKenna find her tribe, and she was able to parlay that into a 15-year career of pro skiing in the winter and Captain in the summer.

The Fisheries Minister has scrapped official limits on the number of sea lion deaths through commercial fishing nets. So what will this reduced protection mean for the species? Dr Simon Childerhouse speaks to Jesse.
A huge win for commercial fishing after a temporary ban on US exports was lifted. Following a case brought before US courts by Sea Shepherd in 2022, a trade ban was placed on nine fish species caught in Maui dolphin habitat off the West Coast. It's since been lifted after dolphin protections were assessed as sufficient. Seafood New Zealand chief executive Jeremy Helson told Mike Hosking that it's lost them up to two-million dollars in exports but getting the endorsement here was more important. He says having the US government and courts agree we're implementing robust management is a win. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On February 22nd, 2024, there was a North Carolina Marine Fisheries Commission meeting and false albacore was on the agenda. The item for discussion was guard rail management for albies. The three options were essentially do nothing, monitor the situation , or if landings exceed 200% of a five-year average, take action. That action would be implementing regulations including a 3500lb trip limit for commercial vessels and a 10 fish per person limit (max of 30 per vessel) for recreational vessels. The vote was close, but Option 3 (take action) passed. For the very first time, false albacore finally have some level of state management.#BetterBusinessThroughConservationPresented by Costa Sunglasses.

As of Tuesday January 16th, certain fishing vessels operating near Aotearoa's shore are now required to have cameras on board in order to get a more accurate understanding of the marine mammals and seabirds being injured or killed due to commercial fishing. Between September 20th, 2023 and January 8th, 2024, the deaths of 6 Hector's dolphins in fishing nets were identified. Overseas, camera monitoring on board commercial fishing vessels has become standard practice. As of last year in Aotearoa, only 25% coverage of the country's entire fleet has been reached. Beth spoke with Professor at the University of Otago, Liz Sooten, about the impact of commercial fishing on marine mammals and seabirds in Aotearoa, and non-harmful approaches to commercial fishing.

Unless otherwise noted, all Web addresses mentioned were functional as of 7-21-23. TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the weeks of July 24 and July 31, 2023. This is a revised version of an episode from July 2013. SOUND – ~7 sec That underwater sound, recorded by a kayaker on Virginia's Appomattox River, opens an episode about how scientists and resource managers learn about the finned creatures that live underwater. We start with some mystery sounds. Have a listen for about 30 seconds, and see if you can guess what's going on with this beeping and splashing. And here's a hint: If a finned creature detects this signal, it might soon have a stunning experience. SOUNDS AND VOICES – ~27 sec – “Everybody's hands out of the water?” Beeping and splashing. “Ok, whenever you all are ready, you can pull it.... One, two, three...” If you guessed fish sampling, you're right! Those were sounds from an electrofishing demonstration, during a May 2013 Virginia Master Naturalist field trip about fish in streams and rivers. The demonstration was led by Jamie Roberts, who at the time was a Virginia Tech research scientist and as of 2023 is an associate professor of fisheries at Georgia Southern University. Participants learned about fish-assessment techniques commonly used by fishery managers and by fish scientists, known as ichthyologists. For some more details on fish sampling in streams, let's listen to a two-minute excerpt from Dr. Roberts' session. GUEST VOICE - ~2 min./2 sec.“So one of the things I want us to notice as we're sampling is what we catch with different types of gears, with different types of methods, and then what we catch in different types of habitats. “So there's really, essentially three different types of habitats that we have here [in a stream]. You have that shallow, turbulent stuff [that] we in the stream ecology world tend to call riffles; you have these, sort of, deep, deeper still somewhat high velocity areas called runs; and you have still waters, which we call pools. And the three gear types that I wanna play with are...electrofishing with a dip net, which we'll do in pools; electrofishing into a stationary seine—so this is a seine net; and then sweeping a seine around like crazy and just seeing what we can get, like an old-time ichthyologist. We'll do some sampling that is more like the golden days of ichthyology, before we had $10,000 electrofishers. “Icthyologists often rely on electrofishers of one type or another to catch fish, because it sort of brings fish out of the woodwork. Fish are in this environment that's very difficult for us to access and see through and everything, and electricity is sort of the equalizer; it makes fish a lot easier to catch. There are electrofishers that are mounted on boats; there are electrofishers that are barges that you tow around; and this is called a backpack electrofisher. It's powered by a DC battery that looks a lot like a motorcycle battery. And it produces electricity that this fancy box turns into the correct frequency and wavelength and pulse type to momentarily stun fish, and while they're stunned, we net ‘em; and as soon as they get out of the electrical field, if we've done everything like we're supposed to, they just immediately come back. So if we throw them in a bucket, they should immediately regain normal composure.” As Jamie Roberts noted, fish live in an environment largely hidden from unaided human vision or hearing. So scientists and resource managers combine ancient technologies—like nets—with modern electronics to get the information needed to understand and properly manage fish and the aquatic areas that sustain them. Thanks to Dr. Roberts and the New River Valley Master Naturalist chapter for permission to record the fish-sampling session. Thanks also to Raven Harris for the Appomattox River sounds. We close with a musical selection whose title describes the water world of many fish. Here's about 25 seconds of “The Deep Blue Green,” by Andrew VanNostrand. MUSIC - ~27 sec – instrumental.

Photo by Virginia Water Radio.EXTRA INFORMATION ABOUT ELECTROFISHING The following information on electrofishing is quoted from the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources blog, Alex McCrickard, “Not Too Shocking: Your Electrofishing Questions Answered,” by Alex McCrickard, November 9, 2020, online at https://dwr.virginia.gov/blog/not-too-shocking-your-electrofishing-questions-answered/, accessed July 17, 2023. “Have you watched some of the videos from aquatic biologists at the Department of Wildlife Resources (DWR) and seen a boat outfitted with long, wand-like poles with dangling cables? Have you ever showed up to a river or stream and witnessed a crew of biologists with large backpacks and long rods extending into the water? This unusual-looking activity is called electrofishing, and it's modern science in action. “As Virginia's state fish and wildlife agency, DWR is responsible for the management of our fish and wildlife resources for the benefit of the public. Our agency staff work hard to conserve and protect our freshwater fisheries across the Commonwealth. The best way to monitor the health of fish populations is to catch a number of fish from one area at one time. While our aquatics biologists are all excellent anglers, there is a more efficient, safe, and effective way to catch the fish! Electrofishing is a common method used in fisheries science; this type of biomonitoring is truly one of the most effective ways to monitor our fisheries. “Fish can really help tell the story of the health of a certain waterbody. They are in the water 24/7 and are constantly exposed to the elements. Some species are more tolerant to pollution than others. The make-up and diversity of a water body's fish population can help tell the story of water quality and inform our agency's biologists. In turn, all of this influences sound management decisions that can improve habitat, water quality, and fish health, which benefits the general public and anglers who cherish Virginia's freshwater resources. “So, you now might be wondering what exactly happens during electrofishing? What's going on behind the scenes during these surveys? Our electrofishing FAQs below cover these basics. “What is electrofishing? “Electrofishing is a technique used in fisheries science to sample fish populations. Sampling is when biologists study a number of fish from a certain area, measuring and examining them and recording the statistics. When biologists electrofish, a generator or battery gives off an electrical current that runs through the water. Volts, amps, and frequency can be adjusted based on water temperature, conductivity, and other variables. Electrofishing can take place on foot with a backpack unit on a small stream or river. For larger rivers and lakes, electrofishing typically takes place from a boat or barge. “From a boat, the anodes enter the water from a long boom off the bow. Electrical current travels from anode cables back to the cathode(s)–in many cases, the metal hull of the boat acts as the cathode. The electrical field typically expands 5 to 7 feet in circumference from each anode and down about 6 to 7 feet. The size of the electrical field can vary depending on conductivity, voltage, and frequency of electrical current. “Fish are temporarily stunned as the electrical current causes their muscles to contract. The fish then float towards the surface where they can be easily netted. “Is electrofishing harmful to fish? “Electrofishing has the potential to be harmful if not used properly; however, biologists have the training and experience to operate the equipment safely and effectively while minimizing impacts to fish. Prior to any sampling, biologists adjust and monitor electrofishing settings to the target species in a particular habit. In some cases, electroshocking is avoided during spawning periods and habitats of certain rare and endangered species to eliminate even the perception of harm. “Does electrofishing affect different species of fish differently? “Yes, the frequency of the electromagnetic current can affect species differently. For example, low frequency electrofishing tends to only affect catfish species. When we sample tidal rivers to assess the catfish populations, we solely use low frequency. High frequency sampling is often used for standard community assessment of multiple species. Because of their larger surface area, big fish such as bass and muskie are more susceptible to electroshocking than small fish such as minnows and darters. “Electrofishing is only efficient in shallow water, so sampling is usually conducted when all species and sizes of interest are likely to be vulnerable to this technique. “Why do DWR biologists electrofish? What's the goal for sampling and what do DWR biologists do with the fish during electrofishing? “Electrofishing is an effective method to assess the health of a fishery in a non-lethal manner. It allows biologists to evaluate the health, variety, size distribution, and abundance of fish species on a given body of water and how that population can change over time. Length and weight measurements further allow biologists to assess overall fishery health. This type of sampling allows DWR to look at interactions within a fish population. Furthermore, we can track status of endangered and threatened species or the status of spread of any invasive species. All of this information influences sound management decisions that benefit the public who recreate on these resources. “Is electrofishing safe for the DWR biologists? “Yes, because of their training and experience, DWR biologists are safe when electrofishing. Our biologists wear non-breathable waders that keep them from being shocked while using backpack electrofishing units. For electrofishing boats, numerous electric cut-offs are in place to prevent accidents, and the boat is grounded. All DWR biologists wear personal flotation devices while sampling on boats. DWR biologists have also had formal training in electrofishing principles and techniques (for example the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service electrofishing course), which contributes to the safe operation of electrofishing gear. “In what kinds of waters do you electrofish? “Electrofishing takes place in freshwater and tidal freshwater rivers and streams. Because of the high conductivity of saltwater, it is not conducive to electrofishing. “Can anglers use electrofishing equipment to catch fish? “No, it is unlawful for the general public to use electrofishing equipment to catch fish.” SOURCES Used for Audio Alex McCrickard, “Not Too Shocking: Your Electrofishing Questions Answered,” Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources, November 9, 2020, online at https://dwr.virginia.gov/blog/not-too-shocking-your-electrofishing-questions-answered/.

This week's review is onLost at Sea - No Spoilers! This captivating seven-part series from the BBC examines the unsolved disappearance of fisheries observer Keith Davis who vanished 500 miles from shore while working on the tuna vessel The Victoria. Host New York journalist Rachel Monroe looks at the life and work of Keith Davis and other fisheries observers who spend months at sea monitoring the catches and activities of fishing vessels as the sole overseer for malpractice and mistreatment. It's far from easy work. Often seen as the enemy, fisheries observers are alone with crews who usually don't speak english with no way to contact anyone off the boat. Davis's disappearance isn't as rare as anyone might hope. On average in the last decade one fisheries observer has gone missing a year. This podcast looks not only at the disappearances and mysteries deaths of observers but other secrets of the global fishing industry like mistreatment of crew, smuggling, and human trafficking and slavery. Each episode is about 25 minutes long with the last episode coming out in November of 2022. They're made up of narrative backstory and interviews both anonymous and not. Tone and music are serious which is fitting. It's a gripping look at what could happen far from shore and watchful eyes. Similar pods: The Outlaw Ocean, The Kill List, and Captain on Deck.

Marine heatwaves are becoming more common in the waters of Aotearoa and in some areas there are record high ocean temperatures. Over the last 10 years, catch allowances for some commercially fished species have lowered, including tarakihi and hoki. The marine environment is literally feeling the heat, and changes such as rising sea levels, differing oxygen levels and salinity all have the potential to impact on kai moana. With Maori holding around a third of commercial fisheries interests, warming seas will affect Maori communities' wellbeing, culturally and economically. In conjunction with the Moana Project, Tony Craig from marine focused sustainability consultancy, Terra Moana has researched how changing ocean temperatures may affect Maori commercial fisheries, he speaks to Susie Ferguson about Paua being a good indicator of the gravity of the situation. CEO for the Iwi Collective Partnership, Maru Samuels joins the discussion about concerns for the potential impacts of climate change for fisheries and fishing opportunities in the future.

Andrew Tsui is a Washington D.C. Administrative Lawyer with the global law firm of Greenberg Traurig. Prior to becoming a lawyer, Andrew worked in Hawaii as a Commercial Fisherman and developed an appreciation for the proper handling of fish once they are caught in order to enhance their value and flavor. We learn about his experience on the boat and his passion for cooking and the seafood dining experience - specifically Umi Sushi in Buckhead, GA. Andrew is a champion for the Japanese Ike Jime method and he is the Founder and President of the Ike Jime Federation which is geared at the enhancing the quality of a freshly caught fish and he appeared on a YouTube video that got 7,000,000 downloads. We discuss what it has been like living in D.C. during the craziness of the last several years. Oh and he found time during all of this to play college tennis which gave me the opportunity to ask him his thoughts on Sampras v. Agassi and Rafa v. Rfed. This was such a fun and different conversation that will leave you with a better understanding of how laws are produced by the executive branch and how high quality seafood arrives on your dinner table. Where else can you learn about all of this in an hour? On top of everything else, he is boys with Moses Kim. This guy does it all. I know you will enjoy this one.
