CAPTAIN’S LOG
It may not have happened in Alaska, but it’s the same ocean, same fish, same story... “Kill’em all and sell’em”...

No one followed the B.C black-market salmon
Mark Hume VANCOUVER Published May 22, 2011Updated May 3, 2018 Comments He called himself "king of the Fraser River native fishery." He had 20 guys working for him and could deliver big numbers of salm... Awe... come on, we all know that the sport fishing take is the reason that salmon populations are declining... NOT!!! Perhaps if law enforcement was direction at the real offenders... 🤔🤔🤕
My thoughts....😡😠🤬
USA signed a treaty with Canada. Now this bullshit. Drop the treaty, Fuck you B.C.
My Wild Alaska family has often heard me lament “We know everything about salmon in fresh water, but nothing of their lives in the salt”. This interesting read confirms my assertion that Salmon harvest regulation is NOT based on sound research. Garbage in- garbage out!

Salmon expedition reports unexpected findings
Researchers return from unprecedented study of the lives of salmon in the Pacific Ocean. Read this yesterday and interesting findings! TY for sharing!
Russian Collusion.
Interesting read
Thank you Larry.
They need to do that study over a 10 year period to come up with enough data to know anything concrete - changing water temperatures may have changed migration routes making this a blip in the radar screen of so called science - the information is interesting but for me there needs to be a history to know anything as scientific
No wonder it’s hard to know what to think...

Are Orcas Responsible for a Shrinking Pacific King Salmon Population?
New research suggests that Chinook salmon are being run down by a growing population of killer whales. Orcas? Sea lions? Hmm... Wonder what they taste like??? 🤔
No. The over population of Sea Lions are.
They hungry! They’d be even hungrier if they had Jesse cooking for them 🤣🤣😂😂
Great share! What a complex issue for sure!
what is happening is the reduction of hatcheries putting fish back in, plus the ungodly amount of sealions, thats where the problem is
Alaska would do well to follow in these footsteps of concern...

The case for ending the herring fishery
The commercial herring roe fishery in the Salish Sea may be the final nail in the coffin of chinook, resident orca and seabirds. In June of 1893, a small steam tug thumped past Nanaimo. Abruptly, the ... Read it this AM posted on another page 😢
interesting.......
This is what commercial herring fishing looks like. 21,000 tons of herring will be harvested in just one small Canadian fishery alone. That’s about 130 million fish, which could feed 100 humpback whales all summer or between 400,000 and 900,000 Chinook salmon for an entire year.
Instead, herring is heavily fished for luxury Japanese food, pet food and feed for farmed Atlantic salmon, among others.

The few Herring found in Alaskan waters today are scraps and remnants of yester-years vast schools which filled the north Pacific...
