The fall quota for the herring fishery in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence has been cut by two-thousand tonnes in an effort to boost the stock.

In a statement issued Friday, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans says the total allowable catch in the region has been reduced from 12,000 to 10,000 tonnes.
 

The federal department says the catch reduction for fishermen in parts of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Quebec and all of Prince Edward Island will help reduce pressure on the herring stock.

It says with the number of spawning adults declining, stronger management action is needed to help the herring stock “mature, reproduce and rebuild.”
