Dirty Jobs - Stripers
anyone see dirty jobs last night with the hybrid striper farm. not too sure I would have wanted the fact that tilapia are used to clean the water of solids (basically eat striper crap) and then be sold at the market put out like that if I were in charge of marketing tilapia and fish farming in general.

Aren't most talapia able to live in the equivilent of a septic system? I know that some waste water treatment plants use them in there fignal stages of treatment and that they thrive in drainage ponds, or anywhere that carp like it. Fortunatly, I don't think that these ones make it to the table

Slightly off topic but There was an episode of "Dirty Jobs" on yesterday and the guy went shark fishing with GS from MA DMF in Nantucket sound. The host of the show got sick and puked overboard, that is the first time I saw that on that show.

If they (Dave Rowe) want to really do a show on the dirtiest job,
they should come to my marina in Quincy Ma and film the Oriental woman who climbs in our dumpster,
empties ALL contents out of the dumpster onto the ground,
sorts through it for 5 cent cans (and anything else of value to her) then she puts all the stinking trash back into it on a daily basis, along with many other dumpsters in the area !
