A crash course in changing the world.
The Current Loreto Baja California Sur Marine Park Management Plan prohibits netting within 300 meters of the shorelines of the islands of Carmen, Coronado, Danzante and Montserrate from April 1 through August 30. This is to protect key fish species such as yellowtail and cabrilla (seabass) during the spawning that occurs very close to the shorelines during this time. Catalina Island is an exception to this rule where yellowtail are not protected by net restrictions but cabrilla are. We are concerned that the netting process is not very selective so there must be some incidental catch of cabrilla during this period of restriction. At any rate, if you are out there fishing and see any illegal netting activity, please report it.
Please include any photos, descriptions, dates, and locations.
