The Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC) manages fisheries for approximately 119 species of salmon, ground fish, coastal pelagic species (sardines, anchovies, and mackerel), and highly migratory species (tunas, sharks, and swordfish) on the West Coast of the United States. They are one of eight regional fishery management councils established by Congress in 1976. Click Here for their website.

He said his family has been fishing in the same spots on the Trinity River for generations and that the fish are fewer and come up the river later in the year than when he was a child fishing with his grandfather. — Record SearchLight, Redding Newspaper
