I'll miss Wisconsin. I'll miss my musky fishing and vacationing in Door County, but hope we'll get up there for some of that.

I'm very hopeful we can continue fishing again. There's some hope on the horizon.

Our Overfishing Scorecard shows that when managers prevent overcapitalization of fishing fleets and set and enforce responsible limits based on science, they can make progress in ending overfishing and rebuilding stocks. However, when fishing is allowed to exceed scientific recommendations, fisheries managers are putting our future at risk.

We are looking to be in a mode of constant improvement, and it isn't going to be one person; it's going to be a cultural change.

It's a lot of, frankly, unexciting basic blocking and tackling. From an information security perspective, we have to make sure we have an understanding of what information is where and how it's protected, and make sure agencies responsible for data believe in the controls that are in place.

Today, fishery managers are continuing to ignore the law and allow unsustainable fishing for too many of our economically and ecologically important fish. It's time to listen to the science and put long-term sustainability ahead of short-term profits.
