What humans can do to stop over fishing

There are an abundant amount of ways human can help to stop the over fishing battle and bring order back into the wildlife of the oceans. A few foremost options are to drastically limit fishing companies amount of fish caught, hours allowed out at sea per day, increase in technologies to create less by-catch, and to promote fisheries. Fisheries are basically fish farms where a farmer in a controlled environment grows and farms fish to sell, therefore he is not adding or depleting the overall fish population in the oceans. By limiting the amount of fish allowed to be caught per day and hours of accessible fishing you can drastically cut back on the amount by catch caught and  have a reasonable measurement of just how much fish are being caught on a daily basis. With these new laws set governments can easily monitor and control fishing companies and decide whether or not new regulations need to be put on or some regulations can be put off because they will have more accurate assumptions on just how much they are hurting the delicate wildlife of ocean creatures.
