South Atlantic Fishery Management Council
Fishing level recommendations for Yellowtail Snapper in federal waters will be addressed during a joint meeting of the Scientific and Statistical Committees from both the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council and the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council. The joint webinar meeting is scheduled for the morning of Thursday, August 4th.
The Council’s Seminar Series continues this coming Tuesday with a presentation from Angler’s Atlas, a digital platform that has been collecting fisheries data from anglers since 2018 through its mobile application MyCatch.
Next week’s meeting of the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council will be a busy one, as Council members address federal fishery issues ranging from ways to reduce release mortality in the Snapper Grouper fishery to evaluating the Council’s Citizen Science Program.
Members of the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council will meet June 13-17 to discuss federal fisheries management issues. The meeting will take place at the Marriott Beachside Hotel in Key West, Florida.
Anyone visiting the Council’s website soon discovers there is a lot of information within its pages, but navigating them can be a challenge. We’re excited to announce that the Council is transitioning to a new website, with launch day scheduled for 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 19th. The new website is designed to be more user-friendly and provide faster access to items most often used. We think you’ll like the new look too!
