Peruvian Hake Catch Amount Increased

The Peruvian Ministry of Production has authorized an increase in the the maximum allowable catch for hake, according to FIS.com.  An additional 4140 tonnes of catch will be allowed for the first half of 2013. 

In late April, the Peruvian Ministry of Production authorized an exploratory fishing day for hake in order to protect the fish during the peak spawning period.

Hake can be caught until June 30, 2013.
