Quotas and landing information
You can use the dashboard to view up-to-date and historical commercial landings information for the following species: black sea bass, bluefish, fluke, horseshoe crab, menhaden, scup, striped bass, and tautog.
This information comes from seafood dealers. They report what they buy from fishers in Massachusetts on a weekly schedule. Thus, data through the previous week become available on Wednesdays. The dashboard updates at 10 AM each business day and data are subject to change.
Please remember that while all other species’ quota and landings are reported in live pounds and all dispositions are included, horseshoe crab quota and landings are reported as count of individual crabs harvested for non-biomedical purposes.
