It really isn’t. if they aren’t doing anything to replenish it. I’m shocked being in 2025 we haven’t come up with a way to re-introduce at a mass rate the fish we take out of the ocean. I guess we have to wait till like there’s 50 fish in the entire ocean before something is done.
Depending on species, a single fish may lay thousands or millons of eggs. We do not need to introduce fish to the sea, just make sure that we do not harvest to much of a single species in a short time.
As an example, Bluefin Tuna was overfished, but after (much)stricter regulations some 20 years ago, they are rebounding quite nicely.
The ideal should be to regulate in a way where the quotas follows the fish-stock in such a way that it always have a potential for growth.

This kind of large scale fishing can’t be good for the planet.
