From Dutch Harbor to the Old Harbor Float in Petersburg, from Gloucester and all the way round to Corpus Christi, wherever Americans untied their boats to fish in the decades since the Magnuson Act passed, fishermen had to take on science, politics, and NOAA. Some of you spent your shore time up to your knees in fish politics dividing the stock or arguing with managers about areas or days at sea. Because you engaged in politics, new generations of kids setting and hauling gear can still catch fish. Sort of– Sit down, put a mug up, and read this expose. You will be shocked.

The depths to which our so called leaders in government have sunk to ruin this industry is disgusting. This expose’ is a roadmap into just what greed will do to people from within our federal agencies and out.
This whole thing sickens me and should sicken anyone else who has been affected by the fallout from the scheming and conniving of these wretched bastards.
These people are not fishermen or industry leaders. They are no good backstabbing sellout pieces of shit who will ruin their neighbors for their own gain and smile at you, all while sticking a knife in your back.
They all should be taken out behind the wood shed and shown a lesson in humility.
If nothing further comes of these kinds of discoveries I fear that not only is this industry doomed, but we as a nation are doomed as well.
This tangled web of deceit and illegal wrong doing had better be investigated and people had better end up in jail.
Where are our leaders?
