I watched it.No surprises.Watch the comms tell us it's a biased opinion.and that there are plenty of fish.

If the rest of the world had regulations and enforced them like this country, there would be no problems !

Very disturbing stuff, unfortunatly the regs we have signed on to with the euro nations are not enforced. Same old story, get more effecient at harvesting a resource and push it to the point where it is non-sustainable.

the guy doing the filet method with the long sword and his assistant had his fingers ever so close to the cut... :hs:

it's time to send some air force jets out there and order those spotter planes to land and be cited for violations and to increase them by millions of dollars not thousands.

as with any law on the books....making it law is the easy part and enforcing it is the difficult responsibility...

so you have to say... who is worse... the one's breaking the law
or the one's not enforcing the law...

i'm wondering why "tuna ranching" isn't happening more here off of our shores...too.

i saw one TV documentary where a Japanese professor was breaking the science of raising tuna from eggs and winning.

all in all the whole thing was very disturbing

Check out the last two NY Times (Tues/Wed) online...
More bad news about worldwide fishing stocks being rapidly depleted by trawlers from China, Russia and other countries. Notes that a pound of codfish in the UK is now up to 60$, Yikes....
