		Fishing reels were produced in New York as early as 1857, but not until the 1890’s was a "striped bass" or "tarpon reel" advertised.

	Fishing Industry Ignores Law and Threatens Galapagos
		Nevertheless, the Industrial Fishing Sector continue with their attempts, using the pretext of a necessary study to demonstrate that industrial fishing is not preventing conservation in these waters.
		Despite the threats of the industrial fishing sector to the Galapagos population, the community is sensitive to the difficult economic situation of the families who depend on the industrial fishing sector.
		Permitting the industrial fishing would weaken the process of managing participation of all the local users of the Marine Reserve of Galapagos, who are working to achieve long-term sustainable practices.

	FishingHurts.com >> Environmental Concerns
		Commercial fishing is wiping out biodiversity, as miles of nets sweep up all the fish in their path—and take coral habitats with them.
		The fish on ocean-based farms are plagued by parasites and diseases, which they pass to fish living near the farms.
		If you eat fish, you are supporting an industry that plunders our oceans with no regard for the horrible pain and suffering that fish and other marine animals endure or for the diverse ocean ecosystem that is imperative to the survival of all underwater life.

	The Fishing Industry
		I think that the fishing industry is a most viable industry but its development has to be done in a coordinated fashion supported by government but run by the private sector.
		Fishing industry will continue to be very important to the FSM and its development by private sector and timely and committed support from government will bring about a quick turn around in the industry.
		However, in the area of fishing industry development, it seems that Micronesians must adopt innovative strategies if they are going to realize significant benefits from their resources.

		According to the statistics of 1996, there were more than 280,000 fishing vessels involved in marine catches with a total output of 11.22 million tons. Since the beginning of 1980s, China’s output of marine catches has been continuously growing (see Chart 5).
		Marine fishing methods have remained mostly unaltered for the decades. Trawling is dominant and then in turn static fishing, gillnetting, seining and longlining.
		The catch volume by each fishing method between 1990 and 1996 is listed in the Table 8 and their shares in 1996 are shown by the Chart 7. Among the marine catches, demersal species were 8.69 million tons, pelagic fish 3.8 million tons, in the ratio of 2.3 to 1.

		The industry's importance is underscored in both the employment sector and by the over $600 million of foreign exchange that is reaped from the industry each year.
		The fishing industry is comprised of two distinct sectors: the costal fishery and the high seas.

	Fisheries Research - benefits to the commercial fishing industry
		It wouldn’t be much of a revelation to a lot of people in the industry, or a lot of observers of the fishery management system, that there has not been a lot of industry faith in the science underlying many fishery management decisions.
		While sea scallops provide the most dramatic example of the industry reaping the rewards of financially and politically supporting fisheries research, it is by no means the only one.
		It’s obvious that any investment that the industry makes in better science is going to be paid back in the form of better management — even if it takes a significant amount of political pushing to convince the management establishment to accept outside research.

		This chapter introduces the end of the schooner era, the switch to trawling by steam-powered vessels, and the consequences of the industrial revolution, both ashore and at sea, to the fishery and the fish.

	FishNet USA #2 - Commercial Fishing as SCapegoat?
		The idea of automatically condemning efficient fishing techniques should be unconscionable anywhere in a world in which thousands of people are starving every day, yet it is in vogue in the "right" environmental circles.
		On a related note, commercial fishing is the major - and in many instances the only - source of year-round employment in those coastal communituies that are otherwise dependent on the vagaries of expenditures by seasonal vacationers.
		Commercial fishing is facing challenges today that few people outside the industry are aware of, challenges that are having dramatic cumulative impacts on the small businesses that make up the domestic fishing industry, impacts that many of these businesses aren’t capable of absorbing.
