Flotsam and Jetsam – Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet USA December 19, 2012

According to Wikipedia“Flotsam is floating wreckage of a ship or its cargo. Jetsam is part of a ship, its equipment, or its cargo that is purposefully cast overboard or jettisoned to lighten the load in time of distress and that sinks or is washed ashore.”

They are used together to indicate potentially valuable materials floating on the seas’ surface.,This seems an apt title for periodic FishNets in which I address several issues that should be of value to anyone with an interest in oceans and fisheries in a somewhat abbreviated manner.

Peter Baker gets a spanking.

Peter Shelley gets a spanking.

But then hope springs eternal

Jane Lubchenco – soon to be gone but not soon forgotten head of NOAA

So long, Dr Jane.

    Way to go, Nils. You are the man! I wish I had 1/10th of your fishery knowledge.
