Sogod Bay

Mangko (Euthynnus affinis) is its major fishery resource.

Seasonal influx of Mangko has provided food and livelihood to the people of Sogod and nearby municipalities.

Recently, there have been reports of whale shark sightings in the bay.

These activities were mentioned in the Silliman University study that identified sand and gravel mining, rechanneling, and sand harvest near the river's mouth, as causes of degraded habitats and major water quality issues of the area.

The same report mentioned mining as one of the harmful practices that the bay should be protected from, and it recommended regulating quarrying and rechanneling with competent planning based on scientific evidence and monitoring.
