The European Commission has proposed significant reductions in fishing quotas for various species in the Baltic Sea for 2025, aiming to restore depleting fish stocks.

However, herring catch in the Central Baltic and the Gulf of Riga may see an increase. These decisions, particularly the sprat catch reduction, have raised concerns among Latvia and the Latvian Fishermen's Association, who are fighting for a smaller reduction. The final decisions on these fishing limits will be made by EU ministers in October.
