Excellent instructional video on commercial fishing. My grandfathers were commericial fishermen here in West Michigan in the 30s and 40s.
We're doing everything we can to retain our commercial fishing industry on the Great Lakes and also keep our water (yes, people are wanting to drain the lakes too).
Thanks again for the excellent video and best wishes to you and yours in 2010.
to rimjoist. i have seen fish decreasing in size my whole life also, but it runs in cycles.when i started in 93 i used 3" for spots until about 99. then i was able to catch em in 3 1/4 and 3 1/2 inch.two years later back to 3".and its been that way ever since i started. using 3"right now and the fish are really too small for that. its been like that with every species since i started. great video though. need more vids like this broadcasted.
Hey, Bro I hear what your saying, but I have seen the decrease in size of fish my whole life with my own eyes, I have picutures to prove it. I have also seen decreases in my own catch. Farming is the way of the future and many of the porb. are being solved with farming. Maybe it's time to think about a career change and be a part of a solution.
What fish are you talking about and what state are you in Farm raise sea food is a bad idea to much toxins in the water when large stocks of fish are held in pins and disease can and will spread through the fish stocks and then through the public it will not be good at all.And its not a career choice its my heritage and our way of life I can not live with out it. We the commercial fishermen are needed and we do need conservation but it has going way past conservation its an extermination of us.
in the EEC (Gulf of Mexico) their putting in fish farms baskets, ignoring the environmental damages, then taking away the quotas of fish from the commercial fishing, the hormones lumbering down the Mississippi is changing the male red snapper to female, which has caused an explosion of fry, which is causing them to cannibalize themselves.
