Wild Aomori Yellowtail
FISH HIGHLIGHTS
The wild yellowtail amberjack population is considered to be high and stable with no overfishing currently occurring.
Set net fishing methods have a low impact on the seafloor habitat and are not a concern for causing ecosystem impacts. This stationary gear type only makes contact with the seafloor with sandbags that are used to hold the nets in place. The set nets are used in a sandy/pebble habitat, which is not a major conservation concern.
