Catch Limits

Catch limits are regulations set by governments or organizations that specify the maximum number of fish or marine animals that can be caught during a certain period, or by a particular vessel. These limits aim to ensure sustainable fishing practices, protecting fish populations from overfishing and aiding in the recovery of endangered species. By controlling how much can be caught, catch limits help maintain a balance in marine ecosystems, ensuring that future generations can enjoy fishing and that fish populations remain healthy. Compliance with these limits is crucial for the long-term health of oceans and fisheries.
