NMFS Sets 2013 Red Snapper Quotas for Gulf of Mexico
Summary
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has set the 2013 commercial and recreational quotas for red snapper in the Gulf of Mexico to maintain the 2012 level, following an exceeded allowable biological catch in 2012. This action aims to achieve optimum yield for the Gulf red snapper resource without increasing the risk of overfishing.
