> Something like 80% of the world's fish stocks are also gone from overfishing.

Is there an estimate that goes along with that number for when 95%+ of all fish stocks will be gone?

Given the extraordinarily fast depletion implied by the 80% figure (the vast majority of which has happened in the past century), it must be very soon. Within 10-20 years there would have to be almost no fish stocks left given the advance of world's population and its collective demand for fish.
