ROCKPORT – The annual Maine Fishermen’s Forum runs this year from Feb. 27 through March 1 at the Samoset Resort.

Founded in 1976, the forum is designed to provide opportunities to educate the public and the fishing industry about fisheries and marine resource issues, and to provide a neutral platform for constructive discussion and decision making.
