A fishery where the average scale may indicate a risk. A fishery where the average wage of a fisher is above the average national wage wage of a fisher is above the average national wage scores towards the scores towards the ‘‘goodgood’’ end because there is an end because there is an incentive or likelihood that fishers will manage for incentive or likelihood that fishers will manage for sustainability to ensure that their wages remain high sustainability to ensure that their wages remain high or improve.or improve.
