National Public Radio’s Morning Edition ran a story this morning about the West Coast groundfish catch share that will start January 1, 2011. The story featured fishermen who are preparing for the new program and believe that it will be a big improvement over the old management system. To help fishermen make the transition to catch shares, the West Coast Trawlers’ Network, a group of industry leaders from the west coast groundfish trawl fleet, created a new web site filled with information and resources.
