Landing the Long Line

Snapper fish caught on the long line. The Jan fishing boat, long line fishing off the coast of Tutukaka, Northland. Fishing with a long line means that the fish are landed alive and are premium quality, and the undersize fish are thrown back for another day. Sustainable fishing methods and quota management strategies protect New Zealand’s fish stocks for future generations to enjoy.
