DFO has advised that with the end of the second halibut opening, the PEI fleet has now landed 63,486.3 kgs of halibut.  This represents 83.48% of the quota being captured.  The next opening is scheduled in September, opening on Tuesday, September 10th.  A reminder from the 2024 DFO Notice to Fish Harvesters; ‘The Atlantic halibut fishery will close when the quota nears zero metric tonne or the quota is captured.’
