Graph Shows Amount and Type of Fish Caught Per Person in Coastal States

The team at SI Yachts gives insight into the state of fishing on America’s East Coast and the impact of sustainability on the data.

Using NOAA Fisheries data, the team shows that a balance of conservation and recreational fishing has led to abundant populations of certain species. For example, scup thrives across Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New York thanks to the management practices. States like Maine show a huge population of Atlantic mackerel, which makes up 61.1% of all fishing catches there. Every entry on this list stems from the state’s conservation policies. The results reveal the popularity of American fishing and the species we typically encounter.
