Fishing hurt!!!!11
When you search fishing on google, you will found about 129,000,000 result. And you will found a lot information about overfishing.
After read article "Too many people chase too few fish" http://seawifs.gsfc.nasa.gov/OCEAN_PLANET/HTML/peril_overfishing.html
You will found how overfishing hurt fishing industry, becasue overfishing cause too many fishes' life it made not enough fishes to multiply. So catches have gradually become smaller, if we do not stop overfishing or limit fishing, maybe one day human will not have fish to eat!!!!!

I don't think we have to worry about running out of fish for a while. There are so many fish that I feel even if fisherman are over fishing that this issue would not be a major concern to people for a while.
This may be true, but I believe that certain species of fish may be more or less prone to extinction if these environmentally unfriendly practices continue. Sure, there may be billions and billions of tuna, but what about the dolphins that are also being captured in the process? We talked a little about this in Econ 350 class... Overfishing may cause significant damage to extinction-prone marine life.
I totally agree with JP. There are certian species of fish and marine mammals that have been over-fished or killed in the porcess of fishing and may be close to extinction. On the other hand, there are plenty other marine species that are available for fishing and are far from a shortage.
Fish will continue to repopulate themselves even after the amount of fishing we humans endure them to. Certain fish will die out due to the facts that either humans over-fished them or they go extinct from natural causes. Either way, I don't foresee a fish shortage in the future.
