In news from off the coast … the California Legislature has passed and sent to the governor a bill that would restrict offshore fishing boats … from killing dolphins and other marine mammals.
Drift gill nets would be phased out under the new law…. if approved by the governor.
These nets are often more than a mile-long … and are used to catch swordfish.
But they also trap and kill many other species, including dolphins, seals and the occasional endangered sperm whale and leatherback sea turtle.
Drift gill nets are large nylon nets attached to buoys and weights that fishing boats pull behind them. They have a wide enough mesh to allow juvenile fish to escape and come with acoustic pingers meant to scare away dolphins and whales, though they are not always successful.
“Anything that comes in its way, it’s going to (catch) in its net,” said Paul Shively, project director of Pacific Ocean conservation at Pew Charitable Trusts, which has been working to ban the nets for five years.
He told the San Francisco Chronicle “it is not only inhumane, it’s just not a good way to manage our U.S. resources.”
How this will affect the dozens of boats that cluster off Malibu to catch squid is not yet apparent.
