There are offshore boats in "federal" waters that are harvesting non endangered atlantic herring. However, the river herring are a bycatch of the atlantic herring and those boats will be exempt from selling there bycatch of river herring to the markets. These boats are probably the biggest culprits of decline of the herring. The federal limits should be extended further out. |

I'm just down the street from the Herring run here in Middleboro... I'm glad to see that Middleboro is stepping up to the plate and doing something about the decline of the Herring.

ive heard from a few people that the bycatch numbers are very small, like 1-3%. the two species are different and do not school together. |
