SABLEFISH Catch efforts for sablefish was strong throughout the early part of the season. Fishing reports were mostly positive but grade and ex-vessel prices remain relatively weak. Quota sales activity is slower than usual, with many potential buyers and sellers choosing to lease IFQ. Reduced asking prices may result in an increase in sales but we expect activity to remain relatively low until ex-vessel prices improve. The latest is as follows:
