This year's Thursday program was focused on herring.  Representatives from the New England Fisheries Management Council and the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission gave updates on regulation changes and the status of the stock.  There was also a panel discussion with industry stakeholders.  Fishermen from all sectors who are dependent on the herring fishery were invited to participate.  This was a good opportunity for everyone to ask questions and to look ahead at the regulations for the coming year, and to seek answers to questions they had.
