Dolphinfish Stakeholder Workshop Presentation
February 16, 2024
As part of a dolphinfish management strategy evaluation, NOAA Fisheries conducted stakeholder workshops to develop conceptual management objectives, identify relevant uncertainties, and collect input on the type of management procedures to explore.
We are conducting a management strategy evaluation (also called an MSE) to develop innovative ways to manage dolphinfish in the U.S. Atlantic. The goal is to design an approach that maximizes stakeholder objectives, reduces conflicts, and best fits the life history of dolphinfish. With this evaluation, we aim to:
- Predict the amount of dolphinfish that will be available each year
- Maximize the usage of dolphinfish across sectors and regions
