Fisheries development has been the subject of persistent debate in the
federal government. Most of this debate centers on the appropriate federal
role in fisheries development. The issue is complicated by the venerable
tradition of government intervention in industries other than fisheries. The
debate is of interest to the recreational fishing community because, within
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has a policy that the fishing industry is
composed of commercial and recreational segments and that our programs should
benefit both segments.

This newsletter is designed to explain how the swordfish logbook data
are being used and to provide some results and summaries of these data.
Topics include (1) a description of the process involved in handling the
logbook forms, (2) summaries for the 1987 and 1988 data of numbers of
swordfish, tunas and billfish caught by area with associated effort in hooks
fished, (3) preliminary summaries of the 1989 data, (4) maps of reported
fishing locations for 1987-89, (5) discussion of the revisions to the 1991
logbook forms, and (6) names of people to contact for further information.

cavalla, Tagged in Southeast Louisiana, 1983-85." Marine
Fisheries Review, 49(2):98-101.
King mackerel (1,968) caught by hook and line off Grand Isle, Louisiana
were tagged with internal anchor tags and released between 1983 and 1985.
Fifty five tags were recovered, providing an overall return rate of 2.8
percent. King mackerel tagged in winter were returned in every month of the
year, but always from the Grand Isle area or westward as far as Veracruz,
Mexico. All but one summer tagged fish were returned in winter months from
the Grand Isle area, Key West, Florida, or from Mexico. Winter tagged fish
were mostly large and mostly remained in the northwest Gulf. Summer tagged
fish tended to stay in the northwest Gulf if they were large, or migrated to
south Florida or Mexico if they were small. The data indicate that the
northwest Gulf maintains resident large king mackerel year round, and that
these fish mix with smaller migrants from south Florida and Mexico to some
