"The American Fisheries Society (AFS), founded in 1870, is
the oldest and largest professional society representing
fisheries scientists. AFS promotes scientific research and
enlightened management of resources for optimum use and enjoyment
by the public. It also encourages a comprehensive education for
fisheries scientists and continuing on-the-job training. The AFS
publishes some of the world's leading fisheries research
journals."
Almost all our groupers in the Gulf of Mexico have made this
list. In light of this, if the National Marine Fisheries Service
does not take some meaningful steps to lower the quota on
commercial landings of grouper in the Gulf of Mexico, we will
have to get Congress involved.
