The oversized yellow croaker is the result of the rule of law

author:China Aquaculture Network

In the past two years, Zhoushan fishermen have been catching long-lost wild yellow croaker in the sea in front of their homes. Checking the "old news" found that on March 5 last year, the fishing boss Huang Hong caught two wild yellow croakers in the mazhimen sea, one 0.94 kg and the other 0.6 kg. On May 31 last year, someone caught a 3.55-kilogram "giant" wild yellow croaker in the shengshan sea, and finally sold it for 70,000 yuan in Zhoushan International Aquatic City. There is inevitability in chance, and wild yellow croakers seem to show signs of re-emergence.

Giant yellow croaker was once one of the four major economic fish in Zhoushan Fishery, but the lack of legal regulation of disorderly fishing will eventually lead to bad consequences, after decades of crazy overfishing, fishery resources are almost exhausted, economic fish have become rare fish, and the "cabbage price" of yellow croaker has also risen to the "golden price". The sea cannot only have fishing nets and no legal nets, otherwise the fish will eventually be free of fish in the sea, which is a profound lesson drawn from painful thinking.

In recent years, the laws and regulations for the protection of fishery resources have been continuously improved, vessels and nets have become increasingly standardized, the fine division of the fishing moratorium in the volt season has been repeatedly extended, and the investment in breeding and stocking has become more and more intense. At the same time, the construction of rule-of-law fisheries has continued to advance: on the one hand, the publicity of the rule of law has gone deep into the fishing villages of the fishing grounds, and the awareness of the majority of fishermen to abide by the law and the rules has generally increased; on the other hand, the law enforcement efforts have been continuously increased, and the emphasis on land and sea has achieved remarkable results in cracking down on illegal fishing. In the process of promoting the rule of law, innovative measures have emerged in an endless stream. Since last year, the district people's procuratorate has launched a compensation mechanism for ecological restoration, guiding the parties to illegal fishing cases to restore marine ecology through breeding and stocking, and achieved good social results.

Kung Fu does not live up to the protection of the sea. With the continuous advancement of the construction of the rule of law fishery, the gradual recovery of marine ecology, the revival of fishery production, and the increase in the probability of wild yellow croaker catching is a good sign. Of course, the nearly depleted fishery resources are difficult to restore in a short period of time, and the fragile marine ecology still needs long-term care by the rule of law. In fact, oversized wild yellow croaker is still rare, so the price is as high as about 6,000 yuan per kilogram, and the average person really can't afford to eat it. At the same time, the situation of fishery law enforcement is still grim, the phenomenon of illegal fishing has not disappeared despite severe crackdowns, and illegal seafood during the fishing moratorium is still flowing into the market, and the construction of a rule-of-law fishery also needs the concerted efforts of the whole society.

There is no killing without buying and selling. People who have witnessed the transformation of fisheries have suffered from resource depletion, and they should hate illegal fishing and refuse to prohibit seafood. Everyone has the law in their hearts, so that what should not be bought is not bought, and what should not be eaten is not eaten, and the lawless will lose the drive of interests, and the construction of a fishing farm under the rule of law will also have a solid mass foundation. In this way, the wild yellow croaker will surely grow more and more after recuperation. At that time, everyone may have the pleasure of sharing wild yellow croaker.
