There has been overfishing for more than ten years and current management measures appear to be insufficient to end overfishing in the short term. Recommendations are to reduce fishing by 36 per cent compared to 2008-2011 levels. Largely targets skipjack and to a lesser extent yellowfin but may catch multiple species. Larger vessels usually have their own freezing equipment and are based outside the Pacific and smaller vessels, which use ice, are based in Pacific ports.
