The Fish Behind Fish Feed: Rethinking Transparency Using DNA Tools

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture is now the fastest growing food sector and may be a promising solution to increasing seafood demands. Yet, carnivorous aquaculture species such as salmon and seabass continue to rely on fishmeal and fish oil (FMFO), which are derived largely from pelagic fish that are sometimes key to the food security of some coastal nations.

The SPoRC Stock Assessment Package: A Generalized Next‐Generation Platform to Assess Spatial, Age and Sex‐Structured Populations

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fisheries managers increasingly rely on stock assessment models to provide sustainable management advice, which must balance complex and competing objectives. Although assessment models necessitate simplifying assumptions, there is increasing recognition to improve the integration of realistic biological and fishery dynamics. While ongoing and

Factors Influencing the Stocking of Juvenile Pikeperch (Sander lucioperca)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predator species of fish play crucial roles in ecosystem balance through top‐down control, a mechanism frequently exploited in biomanipulation to stock predator species. Juvenile pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) were stocked (n = 52,887) in spring 2023 and 2024 and autumn 2023 to compare stocking efficiency between Recirculation Aquaculture ...

Local Angler Knowledge Reveals Declines in Fishing Quality for Black Bass in Lakes of Eastern Ontario

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local ecological knowledge can be useful to assess data‐limited fisheries such as the Ontario Black Bass (Micropterus spp.) recreational fishery. We surveyed local anglers using the Life History Calendar approach to determine if there were perceived changes in fishing quality for Black Bass in eastern Ontario across different time periods. For

Revisiting Maturity Data: Using Oocyte Diameter and Gonadosomatic Index to Retroactively Apply a New Maturity Scale to Greenland Halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) is a deep‐water flatfish which lives at temperatures of 1°C–4°C and produces large eggs (> 3 mm). The combination of low temperatures and large eggs has resulted in an unusual ovary development cycle, with vitellogenesis taking more than 1 year.

Post‐Release Mortality of European Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) Discarded From Small‐Scale Estuarine Fishing

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Estuaries provide essential habitats for many fish species, but their confined and accessible nature may increase fish vulnerability to capture, and few empirical studies have quantified the value of restricting net fisheries in such areas.

Management Implications of Mesopelagic Forage Fisheries for Bigeye Tuna Stocks

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many large marine predators forage on mesopelagic fish stocks, including commercially valuable tunas. The mesopelagic is under increasing interest for commercial exploitation, given its large biomass with potential to supply fishmeal for aquaculture feed or fish oil.
