Maine's Fishermen have a Plan

A Maine-based coalition of fishermen and scientists says it has developed an ecologically based plan to control over fishing in the Gulf of Maine.
At the same time the coalition says the plan would spare hundreds of fishing-related jobs.
Details of the plan have yet to be provided.
But representatives of the Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance say it will combine zone management with gear restrictions instead of forcing fishermen to drastically cut their days at sea.
