Description:
This report presents observed and estimated bycatch of green sturgeon (Acipenser medirostris) in fishery sectors observed by the West Coast Groundfish Observer Program (WCGOP) and the At-Sea Hake Observer Program (A-SHOP) from 2002–17. Three federal groundfish fisheries observed by WCGOP and A-SHOP encountered green sturgeon between 2002 and 2017: the limited entry (LE) bottom trawl fishery (active 2002–10), the individual fishing quota (IFQ) bottom trawl fishery (active 2011–17), and the at-sea hake fishery (active 2002–17).
