Jack mackerel caught by a Chilean purse seiner Fishing down the food web. Overfishing is the removal of a species of fish (i.e. fishing) from a body of water at a rate greater than that the species can replenish its population naturally (i.e. the overexploitation of the fishery's existing fish stock), resulting in the species becoming increasingly underpopulated in that area.
Destructive fishing practices are fishing practices which easily result in irreversible damage to habitats and the sustainability of the fishery ecosystems.Such damages can be caused by direct physical destruction of the underwater landform and vegetation, overfishing (especially of keystone species), indiscriminate killing/maiming of aquatic life, disruption of vital reproductive cycles, and ...

The 10-fish limit on yellow perch, imposed a few years ago, again will be in effect in Ohio waters a little east of Huron on the west and a little west of Fairport Harbor on the east.
The term fish kill, known also as fish die-off, refers to a localized mass die-off of fish populations which may also be associated with more generalized mortality of aquatic life. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The most common cause is reduced oxygen in the water, which in turn may be due to factors such as drought , harmful algal bloom , overpopulation , or a ...
