Fishermen in Port Clyde, Maine, borrowed the idea in 2007, and since then about a dozen CSF&#8217;s have popped up in New England.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"related-content alignright\"><h4 class=\"related-header\">Related<\/h4><div class=\"links\"><h5>Posts<\/h5><ul><li class=\"link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/stateimpact.npr.org\/new-hampshire\/2012\/04\/30\/economy-dominates-democratic-and-gop-campaign-events-in-nh\/\">Economy Dominates GOP And Democratic Campaign Events In\u00a0NH<\/a><\/li><li class=\"link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/nhpr.org\/post\/fisheries-study-shows-unhealthy-cod-population\">Fisheries Study Shows Unhealthy Cod Population<\/a><\/li><li class=\"link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/stateimpact.npr.org\/new-hampshire\/2011\/12\/12\/how-defense-cuts-hurt-new-england-lobstermen-and-lowered-lobster-prices\/\">How Defense Cuts Hurt New England Lobstermen\u2013And Maybe Even Lowered Lobster Prices<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"topics\"><h5>Topics<\/h5><p class=\"topic\"><img class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/stateimpact.npr.org\/new-hampshire\/files\/2011\/12\/44707175_3dd9360b0a.jpg\" height=\"60\" width=\"60\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/stateimpact.npr.org\/new-hampshire\/topic\/commercial-fishing\/\">Why Commercial Fishing\u2019s An Endangered Industry<\/a><\/p><p class=\"topic\"><img class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/stateimpact.npr.org\/new-hampshire\/files\/2011\/07\/729163602_fbfb7cd5211-60x60.jpg\" height=\"60\" width=\"60\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/stateimpact.npr.org\/new-hampshire\/topic\/seacoast\/\">What You Need To Know About The Seacoast\u2019s Economy<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div>This system inverts traditional fishery economics. Instead of selling his catch to the local cooperative for a non-negotiable price, Eastman says, he was charging a premium to 500 shareholders. The couple\u2019s income tripled&#8211;but so did their expenses and workload. They could no longer rely on the market to process, distribute, advertise and sell the catch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had to go to a bigger scale or stop,\u201d Eastman says. \u201cWe couldn\u2019t do it anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays, Carolyn Eastman does her best to ensure that her husband squeezes every penny he can from every pound of seafood he catches. \u201cMy wife can sell anything,\u201d he says of the woman he named his boat, <em>Sweet Carolyn<\/em>, for. Though they quit the CSF last year, Carolyn kept the contact information of the 1,000 shareholders and customers she met at farmers markets. So while Ed is out on the ocean, Carolyn lures customers to meet him at the dock after sunset and sells the catch directly to the public for a higher price than they could get wholesale.<\/p>\n<h3>Navigating New Regulations<\/h3>\n<p>But the big factor working against Eastman&#8217;s groundfishing business was the change in federal regulations.\u00a0 Under the old &#8220;days at sea&#8221; system, fishermen were given a set amount of time to basically catch what they could.\u00a0 But since 2010, the federal government has regulated groundfishing through a sector management system. Groundfish are a diverse group of fish that live on the bottom of the Gulf of Maine. Many of their names are familiar, like cod, haddock, pollock, flounder, and halibut.\u00a0 Others are less well-known: Plaice, whiting, redfish, and ocean pout.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"module pull-quote left half\"><br \/>\n\u201cWe had to go to a bigger scale or stop. We couldn\u2019t do it anymore.\u201d&#8211;Ed Eastman<\/div> Under the new system, fishermen are pooled into groups, or sectors, and there is a quota for each species in that sector.\u00a0 Toward the end of his groundfishing days, Eastman was permitted to catch a certain weight of halibut, haddock, and so on. His cod quota was determined by the amount of cod he had caught between 1996 and 2006. Those were very poor fishing years for Eastman, and they came back to haunt his business later.<\/p>\n<p>Now Eastman survives by diversifying; he fishes for different species seasonally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the fishing industry everyone is in a state of flux,\u201d Carolyn says. \u201cNo one can afford to fish only one fishery anymore. It\u2019s obsolete.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But catching shrimp, as Eastman did this winter, is not paying off. The catch is unpredictable. This income must cover fuel, gear, permits, and the wages of his sternman. At the end of the season \u2013 after five or so weeks on a temperamental sea \u2013 Eastman just broke even.<\/p>\n<h3>Small Quotas, Small Payoff<\/h3>\n<p>Niaz Dorry, the Coordinating Director of the Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance, says sector management squeezes small-scale fishermen out while permits are collected by larger boats. \u201cThe fishermen with the smallest ecological footprint are left out,\u201d Dorry says.<\/p>\n<p>Small boats receive small quotas \u2013 too small, in Eastman\u2019s case, to make a living. It\u2019s called consolidation, and Dorry says it\u2019s happening in New England. <a title=\"2010 Final Report on the Performance of the Northeast Multispecies (Groundfish) Fishery (May 2010 \u2013 April 2011) 2nd Edition\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nefsc.noaa.gov\/publications\/crd\/crd1119\/crd1119.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Between 2007 and 2009<\/a>, the top 20 percent of groundfish boats earned approximately 77 percent of the industry\u2019s revenue. <div class=\"module pull-quote right half\">\u201cIf you have any kids, you want them to stay away. Send them to college.&#8221;&#8211;Ed Eastman<\/div>In 2010, the year sector management began, the top 20 percent of boats earned 86 percent of the revenue.<\/p>\n<p>But there is more at work than changing regulations. A couple generations of overfishing are not helping, while shifting reports keep fishermen skeptical of scientific stock assessments. In 2008, fisheries scientists said the cod stock was doing pretty well. Then last fall, they estimated that <a title=\"Collapse of Cod Fishery Blamed on Inadequate Assessment\" href=\"http:\/\/www.fishermensvoice.com\/201204CollapseOfCodFisheryBlamedOnInadequateAssessment.html\" target=\"_blank\">the 2008 assessment had been off<\/a> \u2013 by 68 percent. <a href=\"http:\/\/climatide.wgbh.org\/2012\/02\/how-cod-went-from-rebuilding-to-overfished\/\">Scientists say<\/a> the change was due to new data and new modeling techniques, but that&#8217;s a bitter pill for fishermen to swallow. Based on the new assessment, federal regulators cut the upcoming season\u2019s cod quota <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boston.com\/Boston\/metrodesk\/2012\/04\/government-cuts-cod-limits-for-local-fishermen-percent\/2G39HCCR2xt9LsjzzWdjIP\/index.html\">by 22 percent<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Fishermen are bracing for steeper cuts next year because the cod stock is supposed to be rebuilt from overfishing by 2014, a mandate of the <a title=\"Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nmfs.noaa.gov\/msa2005\/docs\/MSA_amended_msa%20_20070112_FINAL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act<\/a>. \u201cRebuilt\u201d means there must be a certain amount of breeding adults in the population. The target is 62,238 metric tons. \u201cThe important thing to note is that spawning stock&#8230;has not approached even half the target since 1982,\u201d says Teri Frady, a spokeswoman for the National Marine Fisheries Service.<\/p>\n<p>The cod stock has increased a bit in recent years, but it is still only about one-fifth of the way to being considered \u201crebuilt.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>No Future In Fishing?<\/h3>\n<p>Ed Eastman predicts the next few years \u201cwill tell the tale.\u201d With groundfishery open, commercial fishermen will trawl the seafloor. Cod will be netted with the pout, flounder and halibut, and many fishermen will be forced to stop fishing for all species once they hit the cod limit. That\u2019s why cod is called a \u201cchoke species.\u201d Some fishermen will opt to sell their permits or lease their quotas to others who can afford it, increasing consolidation in the fishery.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Eastmans, selling their permit for groundfishing earned them about $475,000 \u2013 a significant portion of which went toward the boat mortgages. Now Eastman has no debt, a milestone for a New England fisherman. Since he only broke even shrimping, he is now focusing more on lobster and herring, which he uses to catch lobster. He&#8217;s also running charters for tourists.\u00a0 Eastman is not certain about his future as a fisherman, but he is quite clear on the future of New England\u2019s fisheries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you have any kids, you want them to stay away,\u201d Eastman says. He and Carolyn have three children. \u201cSend them to college,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, commercial fishermen began trawling the seafloor off New Hampshire for cod and other signature New England catches.
