    Castor, Rjay (Daily Guardian Multi-Media Services, Inc., 2023-11-15)
    The Visayan Sea will be closed to fishing from November 15 to February 15 next year to ensure the conservation of the fish species in the area. The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) in Western Visayas said that the three-month hiatus, known as ‘Ang Pahuway sang Baybay’ (The Rest of the Sea), is in line with Fisheries Administrative Order No. 167-3.

    BFAR imposes 3-month fishing ban in Visayan sea
    Semilla, Nestle (Philippine Daily Inquirer, Inc., 2022-11-18)
    For the next three months, fishing of some species at the Visayan Sea would be prohibited, said the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources in Central Visayas (BFAR-7). Starting on Nov. 15 until Feb. 15, 2023, fishers would not be allowed to catch pelagic species such as sardines, herrings and mackerels from the Visayan Sea to allow them to spawn and flourish in number, BFAR-7 said in a social media post on Thursday. The ban, which was based on the Fisheries Administrative Order No. 167-3 issued in 2013, was also intended to sustain the livelihood of small-scale or municipal fishers.
