HMS are fish that travel large distances and are found in both New Zealand’s Exclusive Economic Zone and on the high seas. New Zealand's HMS fisheries are made up of:
• Pelagic species: (fish that live near the surface of the water column) such as bigeye tuna, yellowfin tuna, southern bluefin tuna, and swordfish, caught by surface longline gear. Important non-target species include albacore tuna, pelagic sharks, Ray's bream, and moonfish
• Skipjack tuna: caught by purse seine in both New Zealand’s Exclusive Economic Zone and on the high seas
• Albacore tuna: mostly caught by trolling and as a bycatch of surface longline gear.
