Ocean pout are relatively slow-moving fish, which makes them highly susceptible to predation. Some common ocean pout predators include skates, sculpins, cod, harbor seals, and sea ravens. Although ocean pout face some challenges due to climate change and pollution, the overall population appears stable.

Lunchtime Meal Deal for One: Small fish & chips, one side of either peas, curry or gravy and a 330ml can of drink.

Aside from what researchers can infer from the few samples collected, nearly everything else about blobfish remains a mystery. "Their general biology would be one of the biggest questions," Gomon said. "We just don't know that much about them." There were also multiple calls for improvements in scientific advice for sandeels in the North Sea, as well as research to better understand how spatial closures and fishing displacement interact. One respondent suggested a number of measures such as closing specific management areas rather than the whole of the North Sea. Two respondents suggested (if not closing entire UK EEZ) to close the Dogger Bank area and Scottish EEZ segment. as low a TAC as possible (if zero TAC is not possible), set below maximum sustainable yield ( MSY) and based on the precautionary approachThese figures are based on a medium-sized can of tuna with a drained weight of around 140g per can and a 140g cooked steak.

Two respondents were against any form of management changes and instead wanted to keep the fishery open without any additional measures. Both responses highlighted the potential negative socio-economic consequences for Danish fishing communities.

By topic

This question received twenty-six individual responses. Fifteen responses were in favour of restricting the current fishery considering the current management measures ineffective. Eleven responses to this question were neutral. Of the twenty-six responses, there were two sets of identical responses (six responses in total), submitted by five different organisations.
