Narrative:	To assist with the proactive management of the haddock resource a regional haddock gear workshop was held to discuss bycatch reduction and separation technologies in the haddock fishery, and use this discussion to make recommendations on potential conservation gear for inclusion into the fishery. Also, an International Symposium on haddock biology, management and gear technologies was offered with more than ninety (90) participants from US, Sweden, Scotland, Norway, Denmark, England and Canadian provinces attending.

Related indicators:	SGWR1 -30 fishermen per year participate in fishing gear workshops that target by-catch reduction SGWR2 - 40 fishermen per year participate in cooperative research proposals submitted to appropriate programs or agencies SGWR4 - 30 commercial fishermen increase knowledge of new conservation fishing gear that reduces benthic habitat impact. SGWR7 - As technology becomes available, 10 fishermen per year choose soft-bottom fishing gear over traditional equipment as it becomes available. SGWR8 - Fishermen will receive $2 million annually in competitive funding for cooperative research SGWR9 - 10 fishermen per year collaborate with scientists to conduct cooperative research projects.

Narrative:	The fishermen-led fishing gear workshop for non-fishermen which originated in 2005 was continued in 2007 with funding from the UNH Cooperative Extension program. Twenty-one (22) participants representing fisheries state and federal government agencies (NMFS, MEDMR, MADMF, NEFMC) as well as academic groups (UNH Marine Docents, UNH Cooperative Extension) and a representative from Carol Shea-Porters office attended the workshop.
