Abstract: In the midst of the 20th century, the Bay of Brest (France) had an important scallop fishery. Following a collapse of the stock in the 1960s a recovery plan was set up that included a restocking program. After a trial-and-error period, this program made a significant move towards economic sustainability in the 1990s. Due to the production of juveniles in a hatchery-nursery, but also to the harvest regime of part of the adults, scalloping in the Bay of Brest may now be considered as half-way between fishing and aquaculture. After describing the program, the paper analyses its results, and the way it is perceived by fishers.
