I learned a few things from the meeting:

1. The captains and crews of the Industrial Trawlers LOVE having observers onboard (every one of them stated this repeatedly).

2. They are ALL in favor of 100% observer coverage.

3. This is the cleanest fishery in the ocean with little to no bycatch and they are looking forward to proving this.

4. The amount of Bullsh*t being spewed in the room nearly drown me.


*Patrick - I think it would be interesting if you could grab some of the comments made on the record by the industry guys. They will obviously fight every step of the way to keep the observers off the boats - I think it could be helpful to use their statements against them.
