  • Black Sea Bass in the Gulf of Maine with Marissa McMahan

    Black Sea Bass in the Gulf of Maine with Marissa McMahan
    Aug 26 2025
     We're exploring the world of Black Sea Bass in the Gulf of Maine with Marissa McMahan. Marissa is the senior director of Fisheries at Manomet who did her PHD on black sea bass. Often used as an example of a climate "winner" in the Gulf of Maine, we know shockingly little about this species in the northern extent of its habitat. Marissa shares some of the research she has done, some information on black sea bass management, and some details on a project MCFA and Manomet are partnering on with local fishermen to collect new data on this species. check out our blog at www.mainecoastfishermen.org for a story map of this project.
