Didnt the peculiar color of the water floors, many visitors for while the are deleted so that the within on the reason this lagoon looks pink is that there was plankton at his bottom during the spring and early summer.

And be sure to follow us on social media from our content. Thanks for watching. Well see you back soon. The the. So i like to say the apple doesnt fall far from the tree here. Hold on. Let me get the other one ready. Consolidation and privatization of the new england fishing industry has made it nearly impossible for fishers working on a small scale to make a living. Trim rider is one of the few jig go, fishermen remain back then we go on the people out of the same opportunity to experience fishing the way i did. And thats the saddest thing about this industry. Were bickering and arguing over microphones. You know what Council Meetings are in the press . Who suffers the most is a little kid that might not have a chance to go fishing or pursue his dream. All these things are doing, my son are taken away from me. And they dont see that thats not in their pie charts and their flow charts and their circle graphs, the scientists and their science. But i do the, the, the, the, the small coastal fishing communities. Do we even need the small mom and pop operators . I think a lot of people are concerned about this, the twice as raging industry stories of the United States on one side are people with deep roots in coastal fishing communities on the other, or the wealthy owners of industrial fishing operations, who use their political and economic power to dominate the industries. The losers in this battle were small scale fissures. The fish heavy oceans fishes, one of the most highly traded commodities on the planet. The average piece of fish changes hands about 7 times between the moment of capture and the moment gets tear place the sea Food Supply Chain is long and fragmented with little accountability. The biggest losers in this broken system, or is that consumers who have no idea where their fish comes from, or often even what it really is safely. Labeling in general has been found. Unfortunately to be full of miss labeling. The system is some tilted in favor of industrial fishing that even with hatch that is brought in by small scale. Fissures is the value and there are minimal, profits are diminished. The industrialization of the seaford system is mimicking industrialization of our land based foods. Were seeing the squeeze and displacement of family fishermen and were seeing a collapse of infrastructure. And once that infrastructure is gone, it will never come back. This was the foundation such as the regional economy sort of a way of life. And it was an envelope of what was best about america, how people that were willing to work hard and come here and struggle could make it better lives for their children. Were looking at a shift in coastal america, like we have never seen the. I started in 1983 this year with my father on the on that site on the south end. Or is that much my childhood . Thats all exactly the same as a kid does. When it goes out in the lake and the canoe and his vision for a parent, this with a rod and reel. Is that kind of a feeling the school right there . The jeep go. Fishing is one of the most sustainable methods of catching fish and its impact on Ocean Ecosystems is a fraction of that of its industrial counterparts. But its quickly becoming lost. Our various casper sac is one of the few jig fishermen west and cody j. Fishing is one of the oldest fishing is not the oldest vision in the world. That is essence, its a line going out in the water with a couple of, of some very selective. You get over a school and if its not the right fish, then you can quickly move you know, a lot of its just time in the tides, right. And, and the winds see the fish and there were underneath the school, raise it up a little bit. The past of the, you know, just the rock this, the over 95 percent the rockfish coming out of alaska is all for all going to that means its called a large snaps with what they call rock hopper here. That drags on the bottom with this big tires that roll over rocks, sometimes tearing down pinnacles, caring out for catching a lot of rockfish no one spoke, as well as other spaces kind of trying when its done in its worst form has of leveling effect. And it has a tendency to really just sort of strip away everything thats there, the carls and find it for me, but also all the fish that are living in that particular area. Generally speaking, a smaller scale operations, well managed is going to have less Collateral Damage than a large trawler that is part of trying area. Over efficient you reached a critical level in International Waters in the late eightys with the use of a new generation of unimaginably long. Thats that stretched for miles. There were a 1000 boats fishing in the pacific with high seas drifting nets, 40000 miles of netting in the Pacific Ocean. Every night. They caught millions of birds, dolphins, wales, turtles. They caught everything. Thats why, by the ninetys, somebody like me would feel motivated to be involved in overhauling the whole thing. I got photographed and went to the new york times. It instantly blew up. It was in newspapers all around the world. The United Nations did finally ban those things from that fishing became a conservation issue. Not just of allocation issue. The you have a guy like tim ryder glasses and they were run an 80 miles to be able to catch the fish and a 30 foot vault. Im question so many a night, so i went home wondering if this guy was coming back. These young guys and all the time this gets the fisheries gone and pushed out and pushed out. Whos one of the few guys as i see, puts in the extra effort. He just loves that and im glad he is going on big about the votes here and built from scratch. One piece you know, from a mold all the way to the finished product. The next step, once its done as well, launch the mode, see trial, it get the kinks, worked out and then go fishing boats like teams costs 2. 00 to 300000. 00. And every trippy takes cost to him around 500. 00 on a good day. He might land a few 1000. 00 worth of fish, but thats before he pays a screw. On a bad day. He might not even cover his expensive the news. Theres so many times of life where you people dont believe in what theyre doing or they just go through the motions. Im passionate about when i do, im proud of the fact that we have a minimal footprint where we go. I know if i hit the power of all for 40000000. 00 or a 1000000000. 00 or whatever it is, i knew exact same thing im doing right now. Tomorrow the fishing is peaks and valleys. Pretty quick scan. Kind of like the sharp, i guess the in the 1990. So need for conservation was finally acknowledged and new management of fisheries was established. Until then phishers were all racing to catch the same fish at the same time. To address these issues, a style called catch share management was established and quickly to colt. Im basically a fan of catch shares in a certain configuration which is the person who fishes owns a share of the allowed catch. They dont own a share of the fish in the ocean, but when the catch limit is set, they own a share of that catch. What im not in favor of is you can only share the catch, and then you can sell that to somebody else or lease that to somebody else. And you sit back in a chair and make money off what somebody else is doing. Thats not an improvement on anything. I mean for a 36. 00 foot boat that employees will 2 or 3 people in the sun and then a couple of guys on short run and fish around. You can save you 25 percent down your profit margin. Really either breaking you losing money, businesses like tens, he has to pay a landlord essentially for those fish. Fishermen dont need landlords. They need to be able to go fishing for me and another fisherman that i know for leasing out the flanders. Hes getting roughly 175000. 00 a year. Thats pretty good. Anyone at home is making money and a lot of it, it has nothing to do with the business. Sucks the cashiers for kindly campbell, some people did become fantastic stewards of of those resources. But unfortunately, a lot of people just became landlords, and they started renting access to go to work to the people who catch fish for a living. It opens the door for the pocketed sorts, if you will, to be the next inheritors. The resource is a majority of the permits and quote, a can be bought by only a few companies and were looking at a wal mart situation on the ocean. Why dont you just give us the names of the 5 or 7 guys on, especially all of this market, it is going into private hands. And i think overtime the next logical inheritors of this resource are going to be corporations, printers or fed up. Weve had enough with policies design to consolidate policies designed to privatize designed to squeeze out or independent fishermen. Please join me and walking out. Were going to walk in and tell the public and sign a light on whats been happening of the they voted today to allow for 7 entities to control this whole fishery. That type of consolidation, that type of concentration of ownership. Its kurtz, our local economies that depend on these working waterfront and we need to go up the chain. We need to have accountability in this process. And this isnt working. And theres a select few people at the top that are making all the money. And theyre making the rules and benefit themselves the the, the privatization came about for how that at that point i was only in my mid twenties. I didnt really see it as a threat. I figured, yeah, well make the fisheries a for and there are always any guys to catch it. So yeah, maybe its a good thing. I didnt know here too. After that, i could not get a job. So i was basically shut out of the hell that fishery, that really was the beginning of the end for the happy days and the small boat fleet, and kodiak. This is basically the waterfront of. Busy the all the way down there is the boat yard for small boats. And over there is the rest, the cannery row where you see the remaining processors, mostly all large corporate entities. Things that really didnt. Im consolidated the afternoon. And various caspar that a local fisherman home for data kodiak. Im also a president of the last to jake association who im representing today. We do not support any new Management Program in the gulf of alaska trial sector, which monetize us the fishery research. The future of Education Community depends on access of the fishery resource. Please maintain opportunity for the next generation of fishermen. Thank you. Thank you. There is the fishery management is the responsibility of Regional Councils across the United States. Some have chosen not to use the catch air system and seek other solutions for conservation management. This is the port of port orford. Its one of the very few. Dolly ports they column where youre both stay on trailers and youre actually lifted in by crane into the open ocean. The is how we do it. Its pretty intense. One of the most unique things about port orford is were restricted in both size, 40 feet and under 50 ton and under everybody has different opinions and theyre independent of course. But because we have so much in common, what benefits mean benefits . My brother, the biggest threat we have against the small boat community is kind of multi faceted, the consolidation of quota, and the corporate mindset that wants to get the fish for nothing. It doesnt really take into account the needs of a small community. So this is why i bought this as the gold and i, if the plan is over time to have 10 big boats on the west coast that catch 95 percent of those either. You know, i mean, that seems extreme, but its not out of the question the, the Community Port offered pretty unique populations. 1200 between the temper industry and fishing. Its what its all been about around here. This is the furthest west Incorporated Town in the continental 40. And then you buy a boat and you go further west. The, everybody is the light version and we all use the same type of gear. It prevents us all from growing into the other sectors of control and towing that the port orford fleet is limited to 40 votes, all restricted in their size and equipment. They terry with each boat holding a valuable fishing in the permit system. The permits are tied to the boat. If you dont have somebody to pass that on to in your family, you have to sell it in order to get the money. You need to make a 3 year goal in years. If permits do leave out of 4 offered its less revenue for the whole town. Every facet of business in this town is affected solely by our fish. We land between 4. 00 and 5000000. 00 worth of seafood here in port offer. I mean, its a big dam deal if that goes away, it will just leave the place dry. So it really has a lot to do with the health and wellness of the community to be able to have access to the fiche. Were right here. I mean, were looking at some of the richest grounds in the world. Could you imagine not having access to that for a Community City and the former mayor of Saint Paul Island lives in a community of 400 people solely dependent on fish. Declining halibut, stocks has meant that native fisheries have had to reduce their cash in the interest of maintaining the fish population. Right now i have probably 3 strings. Im a little, im a little frustrated for things out the weve got a couple of good size like right now. So this is kind of the day we want to have right here the of the over the years. Seattle, base 12th lead has been operating in the bearings. See right in sims, backyard, us catch shares of halibut and alaska are limited to hooked and lines fixtures. So when these trawlers accidentally catch how the wind fishing for other species, theyre forced to throw the fish back 5 and theyre usually dead. These unintentionally cost to insure known as by catch. There should be no way we should be shut down because we live right here and that everybody else that comes out of wherever they come from in america is going to be able to come up here and fish. Know right. The see the bike as much as accounting for almost all of whats available to be taken of the hell of it stock. These are industrial, but its are distant water boats to fully prosecute their fishery. And the most economical way to go out there, set their nets due on toes and just drove inside what they are allowed to keep the cost to them of during those how better of the size just costs doing business. Thanks for come in, say one of the really great things about this bike, how tissue is it unites groups because its really important to everybody to cares about the how that resource linda bank and the fisher herself is the director of the alaska long line Fishermans Association in the early ninetys, she loved the 5 and which local community successfully band trolling in Southeast Alaska and stuff in here. Fishermen, proud ocean leaving waste in wake despite hunger. Hows that for headline . The fisherman of Southeast Alaska had a long term concern about trolling. Having watched the 4 inflates, operate right off work as an huge decline and the ecosystem and the rakfish and the block that and how that. So this is the line of their catch per unit effort. So how much they were catching per tow when they were trolling for this species of rockfish co Pacific Ocean perch. And then this is what was happening to the abundance of that fish. As a big part of our concern in the early ninetys, a u. S. Trawler came through here, then took enough rock fish as bycatch to close down one of our local fisheries. Or fishermen came to me and said if you can do one thing for Southeast Alaska and will be, you know, to close this area to drawing towards co, wrangell g. You know, every community and se, passed a resolution in support of the closure and submitted them all with the council. It was a very emotion packed time. We were pretty inflammatory and no surprise people thought we were a little overboard with what we said. There was a huge pushback from National Marine Fisheries Service and from the travel industry. I know easily at the time was sure that with this much support from communities and small but fishermen, the counselor would do the right thing. It took another 5 years before they took action to close trolling. It was the largest troll band in the world at that time. It was a huge grass roots effort started by the fisherman, but it ended up involving everybody from the bottom to the top. The surface gets lost in the shuffle. Where of, you know, again its a 100000. Sometimes a fast quality doesnt matter. And ive been told thats why the buyers why are you going to pay top dollar for my fish when you can buy Something Else . And just label it whatever the for over a century the us as celebrated the efficiency in affordability of an industrial food system that processes and preserves massive amounts of food for consumers. Thats included in today. Theres an intricate International Supply chain that provides us with cheap fish, but the costs to the oceans, the fish, the small scale fissures and the consumer, or staggering. Theres more than one good way to treat a fit. The main problem with the, with seaFood Supply Chain is set up right now is that since that changes hands so many times, every time it changes hands, a little bit of value is lost for the fisherman, the cleaning up a fish, but why it keeps the flash nice and clean. Thanks a lot Higher Quality product prior to going out on the sand lander, i was doing, were creating a mobile app, trying to connect people with local sea food options. And during that time working on that project to realize there needed to be more options and it coincided perfectly with meeting 10 and session on the phone. The. This is not typical in the industry where the captain does a lot of delivering. And the captain is a fish car to are really sad to think about this area, having relied upon their fisheries and with a lot of the important sea food, were kind of moving that new fish mongers, our ideas directly selling fish throughout new englands kind of re establish what new england, seafood really is. We want to have the ability to have a fish on our customers plate that was swimming around 10 hours ago, which we can do cod sustainably. The direct market approach, it has this differences. Were gonna walk in with a bunch of fish off the boat. Were not going to have suit and tie and fancy delivery machines. The, the, the need years to government is open to dialogue with equal watts as it seeks to resolve a stand off with a blog and put an end to escalating tensions in the region. Also this our, the for in our t crew gets exclusive access to the front lines of the
