Daily Trip Limit Calculator
~15 seconds
Enter the applicable regulatory trip limit and the catch or landings that count toward that limit to calculate the remaining allowable catch for the trip. Always verify the current trip limit with official regulatory sources — this calculator requires you to enter the limit; it does not provide or hard-code any regulatory values.
What this calculator determines
It calculates remaining allowable catch by subtracting current catch from the trip limit you enter.

Examples
Rockfish trip (example values only)

Sablefish near limit (example values only)
Trip limit: 500 lb; catch toward trip limit: 460 lb
Calculation
- 500 − 460 = 40 lb remaining
40 lb remaining allowable catch
Assumptions & Conventions
- Over-limit display
- When catch toward the trip limit exceeds the entered limit, the headline shows the overage (lb over entered trip limit); at exactly the limit, the headline reads Trip limit reached. Detailed stats still show entered limit, catch toward limit, percent used, and overage.
- User-supplied limit
- Trip limit is user-entered; calculator contains no regulatory limits and does not verify compliance.
