the question, did you say stephen twist, which is the way started really slow just tearing up with 6 or 7 restaurants right now. basically using my sedan here as our means of transportation, which can be difficult. so we're kind of hoping to get a nice refrigerated truck that way we can start, you know, adding on more clients cuz there's a lot of people in the area that want access to all of our fresh fish motivation was to find a way to make a direct connection from the boat to the people that are gonna eat the fish. and by doing so, trying to eliminate the middleman and costs that are associated with the auctions,

the distributor, the processor, the secondary distributors that bring it to restaurants and then the grocery store . and then the people that you know are working at the counter trying to make it so that the boats getting a fair price, not based on international markets, but based on what it takes to have a livelihood. i don't like to use the word locals. i'd like to use the word intelligently, a little more knowing where that's who it's coming from, having the relationships with the people it's coming from. that's what our menu reflects. will get text messages from amanda before the body saying that here's what's coming in. what do you want? the qualities definitely there as well as depression we've also been able to open up the doors to new areas for delivery. working with us, they know exactly what they're going to get. that same high quality fish every

single time the my families when how efficient for a really long time. my mom was pregnant with me still long lying. and i grew up on long land boat. so, you know, that's been a huge part of our income and our way of life is how that ration there's really nothing else like it as far as a really hard manual labor. and a lot of the fish are, you know, twice my size. so it is pretty wild when you get those big fish, but it is very gratifying one eggs over easy running yards from top to to medium, slightly. ronnie, in other words, you want it perfectly done and then, okay. tell me busted to your my dad is

a super jolly guy and he's kind of like buddha, like almost, he's taught me the trade and i think that's really unique. i've been how that vision sense. probably 1978 was my 1st year that i seriously went into it the way that we catch of it is we catch him on what's called long lines and they're basically a small diameter, a role that plays on the bottom. and we have a large truck in on that hope we have other fish. that means is the,

the, the quality standards for c for is change. people demand a higher quality fish. my son marsh, started out as a young boy session with me. and i think he had higher standards, right from the beginning. he has a new way of treating fish, and i think it's actually better the. so when i started off, you know, you're catching each fish individually. how could live in taken care of them and then just to sell them to a global commodity marketplace and felt kind of incomplete. they had this beautiful fish, and then it just disappears under this pig mobile supply chain. the 20th 11, i saw some fish to my friend who did a little buying club. and then i went down to the midwest to meet the people that

they got my catch. and they were super excited about the quality and where it came from. who is like an aha moment of wow, there's a better way where i can saw my fish directly. i can receive a fair price and people receiving the session, the midwest, getting an incredible product. the success of shares. yeah, uh what, uh, what are you looking for? what are you looking to do? any kind of directory consumer fish business, it's really difficult and that the amount of capital it takes to get started just to have all the services that they shouldn't need. ice bait, access to their catch, be able to offload it, be able to take their full loads of fish. all these things are, are really challenging. or last year

the you're trying to produce perfect fashion. every single step matters how the fisherman catches the fashions and blood right away, as it showed right away how long it see they spend. and then how quickly is that fish full aid and frozen and how as frozen is really important to and then once has frozen household, does it stay? i'm punching the sink is an incredible fishing for small mo, warner operators that gets flights not as much challenge by consolidation, but by kind of stagnant fish prices. in order for us to make it, especially when we need to find a marketplace that really values a quality, there's a growing movement of people wanting to sell their cash directly and there's a consumer base that really supports that. so i think that in the future we'll have more, more efficient, you know, connecting directly with 2 peaks or fish, the small communities across

alaska work to find solutions by catch from industrial trawlers continues to threaten the how that population the hell of it. fishermen have taken big productions in their quota. they are conserving and you really can't have a healthy, sustainable resource unless all sectors. everybody involved, the sharing and conserving that resource. wave fisheries are changing. it's the way our country is changing. it's increasingly harder for small businesses to make it more specific. fishery management cancels responsible for regulating halibut bycatch across alaskan fisheries. today the council is voting on limits for the industrial draft plan, the

hello council. my name is john scale and i've been a small boat held at long liner for just about exactly 40 years. and since that time i've made uh at least 50 percent of my yearly income and up to maybe 90 percent on the pallet. so i'd like to request that when you vote, you vote for the maximum by catch reduction. you're now well aware of the status of the how of it stocks and the need for conservation. you've heard from a lot of people, the exploitable biomass is near historical levels. growth rates have dropped. we're still seeing over 3000000 pounds of juvenile how that killed as by kind of send the varying see the people, depending on the how that resource are, the ones that are plummeting and we're,

we're calling out to you. those who are watching us fall are either enjoying the view or missing. the fact that we're about to hit the bottom everybody is living in denial here and because of big money, i mean that's, so that's the only way i could see this thing not happening was because of the amount of money that is generated from the fisheries out in the bearings see, i hope you guys are hearing me while the council did approve of bycatch, reduction of the bearing see the new limits are an insult to the many locals to testify. and the total held with population has since seen a decline, leaving the future of halibut fishing for local communities in jeopardy and say this, you know, we're trying to promote the diversity of the numbers are going down. privatized

makes our incisions corporate what's happening, and those that share system, the small businesses this. so you need to be responsible for pushing or how to support businesses. a lot of times i wish catches didn't exist. i wish i didn't have to be such a manager. the hopefully we've driven home the point to them that there's landlords in this space . are you making a lot of money? all politics aside, i just want to be able to go fishing and keep the money i make not paying someone go i think a check. well, he's not vision the he had some of the i think so. well i said look, a nice out, amanda. there's other similar models out there that are doing the

right thing. and i want to be like we are the proven important that we didn't know some of this work as a father takes, you know, some of the time i have messed with him. i really hope to have him involved. right with bring them there fast. all the restaurant, believe anyone else in the fall, i can get it done. you have the skills. yeah. because that's what i do for what i'm going to take you on a card. first thing trip this here, a little more peasy. 13, let's we can try and catch up with them. you think you like being plain is after coming up from 200 feet of water,

one messen kid. okay, that was a really good job. the sony still looking through the journey of developing an identity, a national identity. there's, you know, we talked earlier about the vibrancy and the dynamics of the media. all sorts of use and narratives have a chance to, to face and come to the for also has a downside in the. everything is up for debate. nothing is agreed on the

or the, by the early 1950. can you became one of the centers of resistance to colonialism in africa? the british invaders infringed on the most basic, right? so the local population, great britain and pursued the policy of squeezing out the local population from their indigenous lands. the best airable areas were given to white farmers dooming canyons to poverty and hunger. this caused the sharp protest of the peasants and led to the emerging of the mile mile movement, which started the fight against the invaders. the rebels felt themselves canyon land and freedom army. the spiritual leader of the movement would be anti colonial, active as jo, mo, kenyata, the freedom fighters used guerrilla tactics and attacked individual units of the

greatest troops. the latter responded with massive air rays and artillery effects. wind, suppressing the uprise of london relied on the maximum cruelty over $50000.00 canyons were killed. about 300000 people were thrown into prisons and concentration camps, where tortures in no way inferior in cruelty to the nazis was widely practice. the veracity of the colonial list only led the temporary success. in 1963, the british empire had to recognize the independence of gain yet, however, the colonial regime left behind a trail of blood and wounds that canyon nation has not recovered from on sale. now, [000:00:00;00] the issue like a nice, quiet little town. this would be a great place to live,

but there are problems in a small town in poverty that are unfortunate not just as a small town in america. we absolutely import or perhaps talk about what our community needs to keep going. collectively, we all need to stay and vision so that we can keep the infrastructure. we have an economy that we have for community. early on we understood that we needed local science that we need to understand with the fish tanks were here right at our front door. and we took on the issue of marine reserves that was close to fishing. that was a savings account for our community that essentially serves as a place for the fish and go and goes fish can reproduce, and we can keep it healthy fisheries. this place is so amazing. this cluster of rocks right out here is red fish rocks marine reserve. it's the marine reserve that our group of fishermen put forward. we wanted to integrate our

exponential knowledge into choosing where it would be. and then we installed a framework where it would be studied. and here's the marine reserve being protected area. and each of these dots is a place where i tagged the fish and released it. i think fundamentally what brought me here, where rockfish said a long generation time, someone would be over a 100 years old. and when they get over fish like they were back in the seventy's, eighty's fishermen here wanted to be proactive. they wanted to get out in front of the issue. they drew the line and they presented those boundaries to the state. and that's what led to read for shocks. so there's a little transmitter, basically was implanted and efficient abdomen after tagging. if this goes into this cage, when we get down to say 4050 feet door pops open,

fish twins away and now we're tracking it. we've found a perfect synergy between people who have occur years worth of knowledge about fish in the ocean. and we've connected them with the technology of a research institution like o, s u, that kind of negotiation is how you get to where you're trying to go. when you're trying to do conservation in a community that's dependent on resources, the abundance stocks are important. i mean, who wants to fish the last fish, the way of communities like port orford work to find the balance between the fishing and conservation. deceptive labeling has become the latest industry we have $74.00 different species and rocked and shop the are in cost. it's solve the snapper. people are willing to accept that their fish as

ministry fish van. you know, who cares anymore about the small guy. a new reports as many fish providers are playing a shell game with suppliers. recent investigations and studies have shown miss labeling, sometimes due to error, but on the results of our white fraud is ramp in the industry. the safer the labeling in general has been found. unfortunately to be full of mislabeled and a lot of it is intentional. mislaid was there been a number of studies where people just go in, they buy fish and fish markets that are said to be something like red snapper and then they do dna tests and they find that it's not red snapper us solution to the fraud in seaford is better enforcement where somebody who was coming into by happened to be running dna test, they really wouldn't keep doing that. to fishes matters and you can actually know your fisherman,

the we operate port orford, sustainable c, food, a community supported fishery. we catch our fish. i sit down overnight and lock in the fresh desk as fast as you can troubles for, to pay more for the fish or fair trade price to create processing jobs and to sell puerto efficient port orford. you couldn't buy local fish and efficient town and that felt fundamentally wrong. so the chief, the goal of raising the price on fish so that other buyers have come up to meet our price as well. and then we'll go up again. so we can stay in business this is where all the fish from alaska comes directly is about 50000 pounds. and around 20 below transparency is without a doubt, a giant hurdle in the sea food supply chain and

a small operations with the right intentions growing scale. it's an issue that must be addressed if you're trying to expand from selling your own fest directly and you want to grow your business for a lot of time, you rely and other entities to process your fast to ship your fish to deliver your fresh companies that may not adhere to your values. and what point do you have enough sales enough volume to like build the infrastructure to do everything yourself. we've processed the fisher songs, we deliver traceable fashion, ourselves. and we can make sure that west peace is officially south, is the one that is on the name. that's a beautiful thing, and i want to keep that growing and keep building the . this is the new kodiak municipal crane. this allows harper users independent access to the waterfront without having to go through

a large industrial processor. we've been fighting for this for between 30 and 4 years. there can be no start up operations without having access to the waterfront with what this plan provides. now you can have a little longer pop processor that's, you know, a couple blocks in land. this is the kodiak island wild source facility. we hope to serve the small boat fleet, here in kodiak, with custom processing. really excited to see the new plan discounted up and running. right? yeah. just a week ago. so this is our roll stock packaging machine plus 1000 pounds in our we can run through here. this is on the year of our small boat slate. the opportunity to custom processes throughout the course of the year. i think we'll be hopefully 12 months of the year as long as there's fish to be caught. you guys helped us get

to the point that we are today and we wanna be partners in success with you guys. all the basics are here for sure. a new era for daria's casper, in geography. she was like in the battle for access to the waterfront and fishing, ultimately determine whether it's possible to make a living we need to capitalize on value and get some adaptive station the i've seen with these efforts. there is a back, any of success on the way the today. i know we want fish longer is visit 3 crazy and our was changed in the business for us. we bought a 2nd truck, a bigger truck,

2nd boat from the end or 2. we also have several full time employees. now they believe what i believe in, and i'm having fun doing what i'm doing, the sink, we got cooking and growing pretty well. they're in a really short time, and there's always so much you can shuffle fish around in a refrigerated man. there we go. i think we can have your own cold storage. we'll leave you a day and having more flexibility to do our work. i'm looking forward to this, this will be nice. we have close to 3000 followers on facebook. i never thought it would be at that point and never thought it was possible. we do work in our community. we do everything that you would want a small business to do and keep doing that. the, the systems are going to have 2 choices make it work for

us, or to fail. what the difference is, is making an example for others on a devise on system battle for me now is not in washington dc anymore. it's not in town. so meetings, it's on my boat and into businesses. we work with the, the future of small scale fisher's and seen our hands as consumers, the value they bring to coastal communities, and their stewardship to the ocean will only remain if we commit to supporting and while their service to society is under threat. that our fisheries will, once again thrive with possibilities still exist among those who continued.

there's different levels of challenge. and so what's going to make us work in the small mo fisheries? providing that follow the traceable market is absolutely to try survive on this point for combinations out of small scale fisheries and robust management that's kind of ideal. as far as fully employing people and fully making use as a resource, the ocean is still capable of producing and sustaining an unbelievable amount of life in us waters. we have started to let it do that and it shows the message i believe, to you is the importance of not giving up the importance of working together and also the importance of taking care of your corner of the ocean. i think the challenge one term for protecting fist x is

a more complete understanding of the system. recognizing the importance of habitat and managing as if we are in the only predators that's taking fish out of receipt, building direct connections between fishermen and the public. that's great for the for not ultimately shifting policies and it's all for nothing. how can we leverage that network of people who care about where the sea food comes from so that we're protecting community based fishermen who we believe our boy is to be the best students of the ocean. that's really ultimately what we need. it is going to be around for the long news of

the i don't think that i could ever as a writer really capture the experience that is 1025 percent of your income. roughly, there's someone that's at home probably enjoying retirement, watching wheel of fortune or murder. she's such shrewd, shrewd points about the way in which the sea food world fits together in the middle r squared in the middle east. got a lot of steam, monica, your t for sale, tv, show you the misbehaving, very upset. this film, cd that's coming out soon and better be anyways,

this little stab at the director there. * the, the, i'm a film director, i've written many strips during my career, but i got really curious, couldn't neural networks collaborate with a human to make a documentary film brand new set up for much. i'm not sure about is the volume of shared comergence. this human more than shows was more let's do this. what uh, what i would feel with is with the internet and the sofa was like, do you feel i used to finance through multiplan tables? look a lot. finally, for already, for you really been for, is a little as

a sort of by the way we haven't introduced ourselves. i have the strangest feeling we've met somewhere before the, [000:00:00;00] the motion of the money. i mean, you love seeing those little muscles do. if you look on the initial do, while i pull up significantly post on zillow, will it be almost can use the body? what do you do origin by the office, the was done, the newest frame on

the belief systems to good ludy. what i see these the buses, the little cute little dyson says this to the, to the boss of the set, your pumping billions of dollars into the new not. so she does everything to, for the inflamed the conflict, to draw other states into it. the russian president condemns weston countries for igniting little conflict with ukraine porter dressing the most of the conference on this national security. the also says key of is destroying the orthodox church. as you find, the law enforcement seems to, amongst presidents says that the key up a chest long run and as a v, as an abrasive, 77 years of independence from british colonial will permit us to move the house.
