Inshore redfish harvesters from the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) demonstrated at Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) offices in the west-coast city of Corner Brook on Monday (Nov. 4) over a new rule that requires them to have an observer on board for fishing trips, reports the CBC.
