Efforts Expand to Recover Lost Fishing Gear

Efforts to remove derelict crab pots and other lost fishing gear from coastal waters will expand statewide in 2017 thanks to funding from the North Carolina General Assembly, with North Carolina Sea Grant as the administrator of the new funding. The efforts by the North Carolina Coastal Federation and the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries are designed to improve habitat and water quality, as well as support coastal economies.
