Assessment of Overfished Species and Rebuilding Plans in the Northeast Region (2004-2029)

This report evaluates the status of overfished species in the Northeast Region, highlighting specific cases like American plaice, bigeye tuna, and ocean pout. It examines the controlled fishing mortality rates and unexpected biomass trends, providing a critical analysis of the rebuilding plans established from 2004 to 2029. The findings indicate persistent overfishing, with species showing F/Fmsy values greater than one and B/Bmsy values below acceptable thresholds. Visual aids include figures that illustrate the current status and implications for future management strategies.
