Allocation of catch quota in lumpfish
4th February 2025
The Directorate of Fisheries has allocated catch quota for lumpfish, and therefore vessels with general fishing permit, along with quota shares and a catch quota for lumpfish, can begin fishing.


Further information about the allocation can be found on the data pages of the Directorate of Fisheries, and various useful information related to fishing can be found in an article dedicated to lumpfish fishing.
Good to know
Only fishing vessels with catch share and catch quota for lumpfish may fish for lumpfish.
Fishing vessels can only use the lumpfish catch share and catch quota in the regional fishing area in which they are registered.
If fishing vessel is moved from a regional fishing area the catch quota and the vessel's catch share in lumpfish are cancelled.
