Barndoor skate in Georges Bank/Southern New England and albacore in the North Atlantic. The fishing economy is drastically dropping,due to over fishing we are making serious money,the highest its ever been it causing all these fish to decrease. There needs to be a rebuild for the fishes because the fish population is too low and at the rate were going were going to fish all the fish out of the sea.

Skate and albacore have rebounded in 2016, The fishing economy has dropped largely because the amount of fish being caught is less and less and they are being sold cheaper. The amount of people employed in fishing is becoming more and more because people grow up fishing.

The fishing industry is in decline everyday. This is a bad thing for the eco system and more. With too much fish being caught there is less and less fish being reproduced in the ocean.

The Annual Report to Congress on the Status of U.S. Fisheries shows that the number of domestic fish stocks listed as overfished or subject to overfishing remain near all-time lows, with two new stocks rebuilt in 2016. The U.S commercial fishing and seafood industry (including imports) generated $144 billion in sales in 2015, a 6% decline from the previous year, and supported 1.2 million jobs, a 15% decline from 2014, although this is still above the 5 year average. Factors such as the "warm blob," marine toxins, and El Nino affected the Pacific marine environment in 2015, and West Coast fishermen saw lower landings and revenue for several key commercial species. A stock is on the overfishing list when the catch rate is too high. A stock is on the overfished list when the population size of a stock is too low, whether because of fishing or other causes, such as environmental changes. biologist specialist, fishery assistance, post doc.

Two additional fish stocks were added in 2016: the Barndoor Skate and the Albacore. The U.S fishing industry is currently in great turmoil with reduction of sales, jobs, and imports. Fishermen, bait shop, and seafood restaurants are all jobs relating to the fishing industry.
