Mahimahi – U.S. Hawaii and Imported, Pole and Troll
Fast-growing and short-lived, Mahimahi populations can potentially withstand high fishing pressure. No formal population assessments have been done in any region, however, so their overall abundance is unknown.
Pole-and-line and troll fishing methods typically result in low levels of bycatch. However in some fisheries, there are concerns about targeted catches of tuna species that are depleted/experiencing overfishing. Pole- and troll-fisheries have a very low or no impact on the sea floor.
