Small-scale fisheries can be hard to manage due to limited capacity for data collection. The FishPath Tool, created by The Nature Conservancy NOAA Fisheries CSIRO, helps managers evaluate options for managing data-limited fisheries. See fishpath.org/the-tool #2024LakeCmtes

The Science Transfer Toolkit contains lots of useful resources and tools to help access and understand scientific information on Great Lakes fisheries! Check it out at glfc.org/science-transf… Julie Mida Hinderer
