Amendment 34 to the Coastal Migratory
Pelagics FMP
The South Atlantic and Gulf of
Mexico Fishery Management Councils
are considering action to address
updated scientific information provided
by an update to the Southeast Data
Assessment and Review (SEDAR) stock
assessment for Atlantic king mackerel
(SEDAR 38 Update 2020). The stock
assessment, which included revised
recreational landings that are based on
the Marine Recreational Information
Program’s newer Fishing Effort Survey
method, indicated that Atlantic king
mackerel was not overfished nor
undergoing overfishing. The draft
amendment currently includes actions
to update the Atlantic king mackerel
acceptable biological catch, annual
catch limits, sector allocations, and
recreational annual catch targets, and
modify recreational bag limits,
commercial and recreational minimum
size limits, and the requirement to land
Atlantic king and Spanish mackerel
with heads and fins intact.
During the public hearings, Council
staff will present an overview of the
amendment and will be available for
informal discussions and to answer
questions via webinar. Members of the
public will have an opportunity to go on
record to record their comments for
consideration by the Council.
