Redirecting...

Well, the tarpon and bonefish folks are liking this #depredation bill

I think #fisheries researchers are better positioned to find a solution to #depredation than Congressional committees, and this could become fodder for late night comedians.

Moody pushes SHARKED Act to stop sharks from stealing anglers’ catch U.S. Sen. Ashley Moody is pushing legislation aimed at addressing shark depredation, a growing issue in which sharks attack and consume fish that anglers have already hooked.

Researchers test device designed to keep sharks off anglers’ lines A U.K. company called Fishtek developed a device called "SharkGuard."

A new study out of Mote Marine Laboratory suggests a small electronic device could help solve a frustrating problem for anglers...
sharks successfully took the bait 92% of the time when the device was off — but only 46% of the time when it was on.

In waters off Alaska, fishermen struggle to keep orcas from their catch Fishing crews across a broad expanse of the world’s oceans, ranging from the South Atlantic to the North Pacific, report unwelcome encounters with whales.

Florida representatives want to ban shark feeding to stop red snapper depredation Two Congressional lawmakers from the state of Florida want to ban shark feeding off the state’s coast, claiming the practice leads to depredation

#Shark feeding is illegal in #Florida state waters. Shark tourism boats drive further offshore into federal waters to feed those sharks. If the Florida Safe Seas Act of 2025 passes, that will also become illegal.

The bill is intended to reduce #depredation

This piece is from a half decade ago, and it opens with the proposition that increasing #shark populations means that there will be more conflict with #fishermen. Pretty prescient; #bullshark populations are up, and lots of fisherman are angry about #depredation ("stealing my catch'") right now

'It's like we opened a buffet': Sharks in Gulf of Mexico learn to steal food from fishing nets Sharks in the Gulf of Mexico are learning to associate boat engines with food, leading to more and more cases of depredation, experts say.

This article is from June, but it's a good overview of the issue of #shark #depredation in the #GulfofMexico. #Bullshark populations there are higher than they've been in decades, and so are their interactions with the fishermen they compete with for food.

Quotes Jasmine Graham

#fishing #fisheries #depredation

"they have someone whose only job is to look out for killer whales with binoculars in the wheelhouse. Once an orca is spotted, the crew immediately cuts and anchors the line, leaving the area as quickly as possible."

Orcas challenge the Bering Sea's black cod industry Orca depredation isn't just a costly headache for fishermen — it can be dangerous for orcas, too.

#fishing #fisheries

When an animal a fisherman's catch we call it #depredation. #orca have been doing that more frequently to cod fisherman in the #BeringSea, #Alaska.

"The problem is so bad that Morrow has decided to skip fishing for black cod this year. He said it's not worth the hassle."

#Fishing charters operating out of Sarasota #Florida are complaining about the frequency of #depredation events by #sharks.

Fin avril au @CEBC_ChizeLab les premiers résultats commencent à tomber pour @MoreauTanguy2. L'intensité de la déprédation sur la pêcherie palangriere rouffe de St-Paul et Amsterdam a été évaluée. Le stage continue !
