This paper extends these models by considering a fishery crime that generates a flow of returns until the offender is caught and then punished.

This will allow fishery stocks to recoup somewhat.
From the sixteenth until the eighteenth century people migrated only on a seasonal basis to work in the fishery.
The fishery has been sampled continuously since 1970, using gill nets, seine nets, traps and electric fishing as appropriate to season and conditions.
Optimal fishery management with logistic fish population growth implies a backward-bending, discounted supply curve for bioeconomic equilibrium sustained yield.
Rising costs and declining profits will force some firms out of the fishery.
These contradictory effects can be seen among women in fishery villages.
