## Abstract

NMFS adjusts the daily catch limit for the Angling category fishery for Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (BFT) in all areas to one fish from the large school or small medium size class per vessel. The intent of this action is to ensure reasonable fishing opportunities without risking overharvest of the quota established for the Angling category fishery.
