« on: January 05, 2016, 09:56:22 AM »
Hello Everyone,
Below you'll see part of a press release regarding the 2017-18 recreational and commercial groundfish seasons. This is your chance to help shape our upcoming groundfish season structure, new regulation development and potentially relaxing the depth restriction. There are lots of proposed regulations coming out of these meeting and this is your chance to be part of the process.
Workshop Schedule
Eureka on December 2, 2015, 5:00-8:30 p.m.
Eureka Public Marina, Wharfinger Building, Bay Room, 1 Marina Way, Eureka, CA 95501
Fort Bragg on December 3, 2015, 5:00-8:30 p.m.
California Fish and Wildlife Office, 32330 North Harbor Drive, Fort Bragg, CA 95437
Sausalito on December 9, 2015, 5:00-8:30 p.m.
Bay Model Visitor Center, 2100 Bridgeway, Sausalito, CA 94965
Monterey on January 6, 2016, 5:00-8:30 p.m.
California Fish and Wildlife Office, 20 Lower Ragsdale Drive, Suite 100, Monterey, CA 93940
Los Alamitos on January 7, 2016, 5:00-8:30 p.m.
California Fish and Wildlife Office, 4665 Lampson Avenue, Suite C, Los Alamitos, CA 90720
Each of these workshops will provide an overview of recent groundfish management and science developments, and include a discussion on recreational and nearshore commercial fishery management measures for 2017 and 2018. Staff will be actively interacting with participants about their preferences for various management measures, including season dates, potential changes to Rockfish Conservation Areas, and bag limits – including the possibility of retaining canary rockfish. CDFW is also seeking input on approaches to best minimize interactions with cowcod and yelloweye rockfish, which remain overfished. Attendants will be encouraged to provide input to managers and representatives based on their own personal experience that will assist in the development of groundfish management.
