NE Fishermen's Outfitters

GEAR FOR YOUR DAY. FUNDING YOUR TOMORROW.

We're here for you. Fisherman, or not.

New England Fishermen’s Stewardship Association is a bipartisan, non-profit organization committed to uniting Americans in the fight to preserve what could be the last wild frontier: the ocean, where fresh, wild, protein-rich American seafood that nourishes our nation is harvested.

We’re an alliance of the wild harvesters of the waters off of New England, dedicated to educating the public about how best to manage our seafood resources through sound science and best practices of conservation used by fishermen, with a view toward economic well-being, ecosystem sustainability, and US food security.

Your purchase helps keep fishermen on the water and fresh, American seafood on your table.
