Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen's Alliance

About Us

The Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen's Alliance engages our local fishing community to build lasting solutions to protect our ecosystem and the future of our fishing businesses. Founded in 1991 by the local fishing fleet, we are now a nationally-recognized nonprofit organization and the leading voice for commercial fishermen on Cape Cod.

We believe that a healthy marine environment is essential to the success of Cape Cod's fishing economy, and we understand that better ways to manage our fisheries are needed to protect them. We know that fishermen possess the solutions to the challenges they face. Whether it's an improvement to fishing regulations, expanded research programs, or educational and economic development projects in our communities, our work is guided by the energy, innovation and expertise of local fishermen. Together, we're building a better future for fish and fishing.
