This article compiles estimates of the status of fish stocks from all available scientific assessments, comprising roughly half of the world’s fish catch, and shows that, on average, fish stocks are increasing where they are assessed. We pair this with surveys of the nature and extent of fisheries management systems, and demonstrate that where fisheries are intensively managed, the stocks are above target levels or rebuilding. Where fisheries management is less intense, stock status and trends are worse.

Climate change is causing fish stocks to shift and is altering their productivity and availability. This is already creating issues with access to stocks and the allocation of harvest opportunity to fishers. The changing access to fishery resources creates problems at the social and economic level, such as issues of fairness and equity among fishermen. These problems feed back into management systems which are often already strained, and can adversely impact fishery participants, processors and related communities.
