cape caution crew with dan borovina

In the summer of 2001, Dan joined the crew of his Uncle Michael Borovina’s boat, the purse seiner Sea Pride. “I wanted to fill that void created by not having my dad around. I wanted to learn more about my dad by going fishing,” he said. “We headed out. When we got to Snow Pass off of Southeast Alaska, my uncle told me that my dad would want me to know that I was about to see a fish jump, a bald eagle and a whale. When I did, I knew I was where I was supposed to be.”,,, Borovina fell into drug abuse. Read the rest here 14:04

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.
