The Bering Sea’s largest fishery has started up again. As of noon on Monday, 1.267 billion million metric tons of pollock are up for grabs.

That’s a slight increase over last year’s quota. Fishery managers say that there’s strong recruitment -- lots of new pollock being born and growing up to replace the fish that are taken in the commercial harvest. Trawlers are expecting a robust winter "A" season.

"A" season will continue through April.
