Groundfish Closure Summary 2006-2007

 Clicking on any of the hyperlinked month names will bring up a chart view of that month's closures.   Clicking on any of the hyperlinked area names will bring up that area's coordinates.  And click here for a complete list of closed and restricted-fishing areas, and their coordinates.

 The following is from NMFS's website. "This page has no legal force or effect. Since fishery rules are subject to change, fishers should be aware of the latest regulations before fishing. You can search for the latest fishery regulations on the Federal Register Online".  If that is what they say, who am I to claim more?

I have not updated these charts with the habitat closures.  Please check as there are at least a couple of new ones.  I will update as soon as I get time to make sure they are right.  These closures still apply and any habitat closure beyond these also apply.
