Live update – Groundfish Webinar – Dave Goethel Sensored? – UPDATED

November 9, 2012 New England

WTF? Dave is tearing it up with real truth, and they pull the plug? STANDING BY. DON”T KNOW WHY!

I missed a big chunk of Dave’s presentation, but what I did hear makes me want to hear more. There were a lot of very smart people there today. The breaks in the webinar seemed to happen at the wrong times!

There was a lot of passion in that meeting today, and I can foresee some progress of including fishermen in the process of stock assessments. John Bullard continues to intrigue.

Dave was tearing it up!!!
This is a sharp guy that needs to be heard.
Finaly someone was getting to the real issues, and for some reason, he was shut off, or shut down.

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer. When it comes to the oceans it seems as if it’s about all that the industry connected mega-foundations that support the anti-fishing ENGOs with hundreds of millions of dollars a year in “donations” are interested in controlling.
