Northeastern US golden tilefish quotas cut, blueline tilefish quotas set for 2025

The US government has set new catch limits for golden tilefish and blueline tilefish in the northeastern United States. This means fewer golden tilefish can be caught in 2025, and new limits are in place for blueline tilefish.

Fishermen who target golden tilefish will have less fish to catch and sell next year. This could mean higher prices for consumers or a shift in fishing effort to other species. The new blueline tilefish limits establish a baseline for a fishery that has seen increasing interest.
