Highly Migratory Species: Atlantic Shark Management Measures

View Comment

Sharks need protection from commercial long lining, both legal and illegal. Recreational anglers should be able to tag and retain one large shark each. The tag would need to be reported along wioth capture data to recieve a replacement tag. Smaller more plentiful sharks such as black tips should remain open to harvest.
