Groups want to halt West Coast sardine fishing

Tuesday Oct 29, 2013 | Jeff Barnard for The Associated Press

Conservation groups fear sardines declining on West Coast, call for halt to fishing species

GRANTS PASS, Ore. (AP) — Concerned sardine numbers may be starting to collapse, conservation groups are calling on federal fishery managers to halt West Coast commercial sardine fishing to give the species a better chance to rebound.

"If they continue fishing them hard, they will go down a lot faster, and it will take them longer to recover," said Ben Enticknap of the conservation group Oceana, which wants a suspension through the first half of 2014.
