The BSFRF is a non-profit research foundation which provides a means for industry members, fisheries managers and crab scientists to interact.
The BSFRF had a very productive 2024! Pictured her The BSFRF had a very productive 2024! Pictured here are some of our highlights from the year. Aside from the two field surveys, two conferences, and the snow crab workshop listed above, we also had the pleasure of attending the World Fisheries Conference. There, BSFRF members Scott Goodman, Madison Heller-Shipley, and Cory Lescher were featured presenters, speaking on the status of crab, modeling methods to inform management, and the establishment of skipper surveys in the Eastern Bering Sea crab fleets. Weโ€™re grateful for all the hard work from our cooperative research partners @adfg.crab.research @noaafisheries and the continued insights and productive discussions with the crab industry. Also, thanks to @c.lescher.7 for the awesome photos! If you want to know more about our surveys, you can check out our report from CPS 1 in 2023, linked in our profile. Our CPS 2 report is soon to come. . . . #crab #crabbing #beringsea #marinebiology #oceans #crabfluencer

The BSFRF conducted this ambitious research with NMFS, ADF&G, and industry partners. Our team worked tirelessly aboard the F/V Vesteraalen, F/V Seabrooke, and F/V Arctic Lady, gathering critical information on red king crab to help us better understand this iconic species' late winter/early spring distribution! Stay tuned for more insights, behind-the-scenes moments, and the hard work that goes into crab research on the Bering Sea. ๐ŸŒŠ Also, big thanks to @c.lescher.7 and our science team for providing us with some beautiful photos! #BSFRF #Research #Fieldwork #CommercialCrabs #BeringSea #Science #StayTuned @noaafisheriesalaska @adfg.crab.research
