Description:

A fishery management plan for the shrimp fishery in the GuJf of Mexico was prepared by the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council and was implemented as federal regulation on May 15, l 981. The principal thrust of the plan was to enhance yield in volume and value by deferring harvest of small shrimp to provide for growth. This was achieved by establishing a cooperative Tortugas shrimp sanctuary with the State of Florida to close to shrimp trawling an area where small pink shrimp comprise the majority of the population most of the time. A cooperative 45-day seasonal closure was established with the State of Texas to protect small brown shrimp emigrating from bay nursery areas. An area of Florida Bay was zoned seasonally for either shrimp or stone crab fishing to avoid gear conflict.
