Fishery profile for review [21st February 2013 – 21st April 2013]

Stock is assessed at two units; east of the Mississippi river and west of the Mississippi. However, management measures including: reference points, quotas, and indications of stock health, are for both sub-units combined. The Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council has been strongly considering regional management of the species. The profile may be split into separate units when the new benchmark assessment is completed.
