Hook-and-Line/Trolling Hook-and-line fishing is a sustainable method to catch many types of fish. Using circle hooks instead of J hooks minimizes bycatch and causes little to no habitat damage.

It's hard to know for sure. There are many commercial fisheries that gather fish in a sustainable way. However, there are fishing methods that are destructive to the environment and result in lots of bycatch and habitat destruction.

Sustainable fishing respects marine ecosystems and adapts to the reproductive rate of fish to maintain a balance and ensure the survival of all species. Uses selective methods. Sustainable fishing rejects the indiscriminate capture of fry and endangered species or those without commercial value.

Local seafood represents a source of protein with a small carbon footprint, making it better for you and the environment.
