Description
The current definition of "catch" in the tool is:
"Everything that died due to fishing, i.e., both landed and discarded fish."
The proposed revision would edit the definition to match the definition provided in National Standards 1:
"Catch is the total quantity of fish, measured in weight or numbers of fish, taken in commercial, recreational, subsistence, tribal, and other fisheries. Catch includes fish that are retained for any purpose, as well as mortality of fish that are discarded."
The definition will be revised in the tool pending any user discussion on this issue.
