Sam Parisi: Some acknowledgments and concerns
As a third generation fisherman, I am very concerned as to where our oldest industry, the fishing industry is headed. My concern is for the younger generation that is not interested in making fishing their occupation, and a next generation of young people from fishing families where fathers are telling them to do something else because our government has imposed so many restrictions that have robbed them of opportunity, while reducing local fishing fleets to a bare minimum. If we don’t do something we will not have any of our kids going fishing, so what then? Who will take the helm? >click to read< 20:19
The bottom line is things seem to be improving, and maybe we should encourage our kids to enter the fisheries.
Improving? Fish stock wise yes. However on the regulatory front it is as bad or probably worse than it has ever been.
The people in charge of this mess should be dismissed and a group of people with common sense should take their place.
This whole system is a scam and a painful joke from the observer program scam to the catch share scam right on down the line.
