On behalf of the members of the Southeastern Fisheries Association, I want to congratulate Capt. Ed Walker from FL, Kerry Marhefka from SC, and Dr. Anthony Overton from AL on their reappointments to the Gulf Council for Ed and Anthony, and South Atlantic Council for Kerry. All three have proven to do an excellent job, and they stand by their oath to ensure our fishery resources are managed by science and in a sustainable way.
Our thanks go out to the leaders of NOAA/NMFS and the Department of Commerce for their thoughtful decision to reappoint these hard-working council members.

Capt. Bob Zales
Executive Director
