Captain reconnects with dock workers for book on Naples nautical history

February 16, 2015 Gulf of Mexico

A two-man band played out back as piles of chicken breast and pork sizzled in a semicircle of grills and barbecue pits.

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.
