The Atlantic and Gulf Menhaden Purse Seine Fisheries: Origins, Harvesting Technologies, Biostatistical Monitoring, Recent Trends in Fisheries Statistics, and Forecasting [PDF]
With its genesis in New England during the 1800's, the purse seine fishery for Atlantic menhaden, Brevoortia tyrannus, expanded south and by the early 1900's ranged the length of the eastern seaboard. The purse seine fishery for Gulf menhaden.

Comparison of Pacific sardine and Atlantic menhaden fisheries
The Pacific sardine resource, which once supported an important American fishery, declined abruptly in the late 1940's and early 1950's, and the fishery is now defunct. Scientific research during the peak of the sardine fishery and subsequent to the decline has demonstrated fairly clearly that the cause was overfishing, fluctuations in abundance from ...
