Russia doesn’t sort out the immature and female crab like the US does. Nor do they have size limits like the US does. They keep ‘em all. Obviously you’re not a hunter or fisherman or I wouldn’t have to explain this to you. You should stop now :thumbsup:

Why are crab still plentiful in Norway if temps are the issue? Do you know Russian’s don’t fish there?

Hey asswipe.....the temps were warmer in the Bering for a time....enough to disrupt the ecosystem. End of story but more of these to come.

Interesting read, it doesn't give you much on what's going on up there but it's interesting.

The Golden King Crab Story

  •  
  •  
  •  
  •  

In pursuit of the best-tasting, most sustainable King crab in the world, we travel to the far northern reaches of the Pacific Ocean. Here on the rocky, volcanic slopes of the Aleutian Islands of Alaska, we fish for Golden King crab at depths that can reach over 2,000 feet – deeper than any other commercial fishery in Alaska.

Join Captains Chad, Rip and Rick along with Co-captains Kristian and Anna as they share the Golden King crab story.

 

The great depths, remote location and cold, rough seas make Golden King crab notoriously difficult to catch. Described as the “mountain goats” of the Aleutian Islands, Goldens move up and down the walls of the Aleutian Trench at great depths. The great effort to catch Golden King crab does not go unrewarded, however; their isolated, pristine habitat give Goldens both an outstanding taste and unmatched sustainability.

Alaska Golden King crab are the considered the most sustainable King crab in the world due to excellent self-management of the fishery and outstanding cooperation among the stakeholders. The fleet, scientists, native groups and state agencies work together to keep the stocks of Golden King crab at a healthy, thriving level. A data-rich approach allows for real time review of the health of fishery, providing protection from overfishing for years to come. The Bering Sea Aleutian Island Crab Rationalization Program is excellent example of that cooperation, creating a limited access program to protect the health of the Golden King crab population. Under this program, a reduced fleet of five boats harvest their individual quotas over nine months.

Through The Western Alaska Community Development Association, ten percent of the allowable Golden King crab catch is allocated to Alaska villages. For the sixty-five villages that participate, fishing is critical to their livelihoods, culture and recreation. The Community Development Quota (CDQ) program adds another layer of sustainability, affording the villages an opportunity to build on their long fishing tradition through participation and investment in the Golden King crab fishery. The sixty-five participating villages have organized into six CDQ Entities who work closely with crabbers and processors.

Only five boats in the worlds are equipped to harvest Golden King crab. These boats use pots that are set on longlines, a hybrid technique which is unique to Golden King crab. Bright pink pots are used as red is the first color to “disappear” at great depths below the sea, making the pots undetectable to the Goldens. Captain Chad dives into this question in his videos Why the pink pots? and Building a Better Pot.

Crab are plentiful in Norway?

So far so good on DC. Another species called troll crab are there but getting them to market is proving difficult. But to answer your question yes , no restrictions on Red Crab fishing there. Crab still need to be up to US standards though for size and sex.

That’s cause Red crab are invasive species in Norway introduced by Russia.   They can fish them year round…. But what the are catching in Norway on the Viking returns is very minuscule compared to what they catch in the Bering sea.

king crab and most crab don’t migrate but 100 miles round trip.

in the Bering sea unless the US coast guard is letting the Russians in to fish the US waters Russian fishing has no effect on US fisheries.

 

there is something bigger at play in the demise of the Bering sea fishery.

You aren't dumb enough to believe that the crab observe nations borders are you? The crab biomass moves all over the Bering sea throughout the year following their feed back and forth across nation's fishing grounds.What happens on their side affects what is happening on the US side. I feel like I'm teaching children how conservation works here. SMH

Why are they moving to Russia then?  Water maybe heating up puts them on a course to search out colder waters?

It’s natural migration routes.

Now you’re making stuff up to support your position? Maybe?

Why would Russian waters be colder? They don’t have climate change?? 
You’re looking dumber by the post.

It said surface temp. Temps below about 25 feet are not usualy affected by surface temp when you are dealing with less than 10 deg. Pretty much every one with a 1/2 ass depth finder can tell you that

Exactly :bc: You can really tell they’ve never fished anything. Just fucking treehuggers :thumbsup:

What part of the article are you not able to comprehend where it said juvenile crabs had no pockets of cold.water to hide out from predators........oh yes, but you are the expert fisherman:lol:

To Russia it is not.  Alaskan kings don’t migrate but 50 miles 1 way from the breeding grounds.  Places in Russia and Norway they were introduced by the Soviet Union.  Alaska king crabs range doesn’t really extended into Russia waters.  They don’t migrate that far….  Unless something is forcing them out of the historical range.

 

 

Adult male red king crabs in the Kodiak area have been known to migrate up to 100 miles round-trip annually, moving at times as fast as a mile per day.

Go look in to watter temp  and how atmosphere temp affects water temp at diff depths then get back to me . Not rocket science here . What don't lakes freeze to the bottom,

That is not the legal boundary 

It is like 12 mi that falls under us law ie fish and game /gambling etc and 200 mi war ships .

You should really stick to selling EV’s . You’re not very good at it but this is getting sad.

Well, that's your take but the article disputes that. Apparently you didn't read the article which is your perogative but here is an excerpt explaining cold water was lacking where juveniles usually thrive.

Same general principal as some glaciers melting from warmer waters below

Not reading the article no point it was pending with a pre determined outcome like all msm wast of bandwidth shit . Reality of how atmosphere affects h20 temps will show you a diff reality

Rising Temperatures and Receding Sea Ice

The years 2017–2019 brought unprecedented warming to the Bering Sea. Sea ice extent was the lowest on record in 2017–2018. In 2018, for the first time, the cold pool was virtually nonexistent.

”The changes we are seeing are worrisome for Arctic species like snow crab. Temperatures suitable for them could begin to disappear in the EBS,” said Fedewa. “There are two possible ways snow crab could respond: acclimate or move.”

 

 

This was all info that come out of Trump’s NOAA back in 2020.
