Herring catch ondeck of pair trawler.

As the oceans continue to run out of fish, more fishing companies are ordering their fishing vessels to do whatever it takes to fill their holds.

This includes improving fishing technologies on the ships and ignoring already inadequate rules put in place to protect fish stocks and marine ecosystems.

As a result, industrial fishing and illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUUS) pirate fishers are rapidly robbing the oceans of its life.
