Report updates fishing mortality and catch estimates in groundfish fisheries, indicating management implications for 2024.
The primary objectives of this report are to: 1) update estimated fishing mortality of groundfish species in U.S. West Coast fisheries in 2002 to 2023, 2) provide mortality estimates for 2024, and 3) compare the 2024 estimates to annual catch limits (ACLs). These management specifications are published in the federal groundfish regulations for selected groundfish species (USOFR 2001, 2015).
