for bickering and arguing over microphones, you know, as 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 don't see that that's not in their pie charts and their flow charts and their circle graphs, the scientists and their science center. but i do the small coastal fishing communities. do we even need the small mom and pop operators? i think a lot of people are concerned about as the twice as raging industry stories of the united states. on one side are people with deep

fruits and 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 are the 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 so tilted in favor of investing real

fishing, but even the catch 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 base food system. we're seeing the squeeze and displacement of family fishermen and we're seeing a collapse of infrastructure. and once that infrastructure is gone, it will never come back. this was the foundation, not just of a regional economy political 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 a better lives for their children. we're 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? that's all exactly the same as a kid does. when it goes out in the lake and the canoe and his vision for a pan fish with a rod and reel, is that kind of a feeling the school right there? the jeep goes. fishing is one of the most sustainable methods of catching fish and its impact on ocean ecosystems is a fraction of that, if it's industrial town or more. but it's quickly becoming lost. our various casper sac is one of the few. jake fishermen, less than kodiak technician is one of the oldest fishing is not the oldest vision in the world. that is essence, it's a line going down the water with a couple of,

of some very selective you get over a school and if it's not the right fish, then you can quickly move you know, a lot of it's just time in the tides, right. and and the winds see the fish and there are underneath the school. raise it up a little bit. the past you know, does to your office the over 95 percent? the rock, this coming out of alaska is all for all going to that means it's called a large snaps, with what they call rock hopper here. that drags on the bottom with this big tires, that roll of rocks, sometimes tearing down pinnacles, tearing out for catching a lot of rock fish at once, for as well as other spaces kind of trying when it's done in its worst form,

has of leveling effect. and it has a tendency to really just sort of strip away everything that's there, the carls and find it, 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've reached a critical level in international waters in the late eighty's with the use of a new generation of unimaginably long that's 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 quart everything. that's why, by the ninety's, 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 the 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 guy liked him ryder classes and they were run an 80 miles to be able to catch a fish and a 30 football question. so many a night, so i went home wondering if this guy was coming back, these young guys and all the time to get an official resolve,

then pushed out and pushed out. he's one of the few guys is i see puts in the extra effort he just loves that. and i'm glad he is going on big about of 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 it's 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 that's before he pays a screw. on a bad day, he might not even cover his expensive the news

. there's so many times of life for you, people don't believe in what they're doing or they just go through the motions. i'm passionate about when i do, i'm proud of the fact that we have a minimal footprint where we go. i know if i hit the powerball for $40000000.00 or a $1000000000.00 or whatever it is, i do exact same thing i'm 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, fissures 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. i'm

basically a fan of catch shares in a certain configuration which is the person who fishes owns a share of the allowed catch. they don't own a share of the fish in the ocean, but when the catch limit is set, they own a share of that cat to what i'm not in favor of is you can only share the catch and then you can sell that to somebody else or at least that to somebody else. and you sit back in a chair and make money off what somebody else is doing. that's not an improvement on anything. i mean, for a $36.00 foot boat, the employees for 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 problem are really either breaking even of losing money. businesses like tens, he has to pay a landlord essentially for those fish. fishermen don't need landlords. they need to be able to go fishing for me and another fisherman that i know for leasing out the flanders. he's getting roughly what $75000.00 is here. so that's pretty good. anyone at home is making money and a lot of it,

it has nothing to do with the business. sucks the cashier's 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 of can be bought by only a few companies and we're looking at a wal mart situation on the ocean. why don't 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. for those who are are fed up. we've had

enough with policies design to consolidate policies designed to privatize designed to squeeze out or independent fishermen. please join me and walking out. we're going to walk in and tell the public and sign of life and what's been happening and they voted today to allow for 7 entities to control this whole fishery. that type of consolidation, that type of concentration of ownership. it's 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 is a work. and there's a select few people at the top that are making all the money. and they're making the rules and benefit themselves the every spring and summer. the melting optics move reveals a band and machinery,

millions of rusty barrels, and the detritus left by human expansion into this most inaccessible of territories . yes, i used to move forward to a customer and both of us for some reason, you know, as opposed to be joining us. an issue calling to us from clean optic travels the highest island home to the biggest opponent station on the front of joseph land. compelled to go really asked me, but i was my was are more you have to do should. so is if you have, when you feel when we see lots of money and i'm familiar with this, so i'm gonna stay on the old stuff last time. i feel like there's are a mess almost here. let me see. mean membership. when you to, i've got to read on serial know points to the middle. it please join me at that of the optic pioneers main objective was to explore and comcast these harsh lance they had no time to think about the waste management now and, and they could see could remain for centuries. that's my of my choice, the so it's pretty at the cost your system is the multiple and you have to put the

team that the deal to issue the since 2016. numerous monuments to serve you as soldiers in poland, ukraine and the baltic states have been destroyed or vandalized dish. there's a lot of us pharmacy, certainly within. yeah. i'm not sure. or even some others could ask if i don't think so. that's the most on whether it's it's especially almost 3 of the police government denies the rule of soviet so just in the victory of a non system. and is it raising historical memories of world war 2? because the 4 people in your story, although it did seem the non c regimes, the trustees would remain, thinks in people's consciousness, but have a but as long as russell phobia is profitable and brings dividends, you are willing to have a to rewrite the cost. yes. to, to take up the provides. i need the seats in the

car. facts do i need october 30 at the time. i'm are expensive and i'm here to plan with you whatever you do. do not watch my new show seriously. why? watch something that's so different little opinions that he won't get anywhere else . welcome to please or do the have the state department to see i a weapons bankers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead. change and whatever you do. don't want my show state main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called stretching time. but again, you probably don't wanna watch it because it might just change the wayne state. the

privatization came about for how that. at that point i was only in my mid twenties . i didn't really see it as a threat. i figured, yeah, we'll make the fishery say for, and there are always any guys to catch it. so yeah, maybe it's a good thing. i didn't know here too. after that, i could not get a job. so i was basically shut out of the how 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 code. yeah. all the way down there is the boat yard for small boats that over there is the rest, the cannery row where you see the remaining processors, mostly all large corporate entities. things are really consolidated the afternoon. and various caspar that a local fisherman home for data kodiak. i'm also a president of the alaska jake association, who i'm representing today. we do not support any new management program in the

gulf of allows control sector, which monetize us the fishery resource. the future of our fishing 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 here system and seek other solutions for conservation management. this is the port of port orford. it's one of the very few. dolly ports they call them where you're both stay on trailers and you're actually lifted in by crane into the open ocean. the. this is how we do it. here is pretty intense. one of the most unique things about port orford is we're

restricted in both size. 40 feet and under 50 ton and under everybody has different opinions and they're independent of course. but because we have so much in common, what benefits need 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 doesn't 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 the food. you know, i mean, that seems extreme, but it's not out of the question. the community port orford is pretty unique. population is 1200. between the temper industry and fishing. that's what it's 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 a hope you live person and we all use the same type of gear. it prevents us all from growing into the other sectors of troll and towing. that's the port orford fleet is limited to 40 votes, all restricted in their size and equipment. they carry with each boat, holding a valuable fishing in the permit system. the permits are tied to the bo. if you don't 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. the permits do leave out of offered it's 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 offers. i mean it's a big dam deal if that goes away it will just lead 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 fish. we're right here. i mean, we're looking at some of the ridges grounds in the world. could you imagine not having access to that for a community? see me in the former mayor of saint paul island lives in a community of 400 people solely dependent on fish. declining halibut,

stocks have meant that native fisheries have had to reduce their cash in the interest of maintaining the fish population. right now i've probably 3 strings. i'm a little, i'm a little frustrated. right. but we've got 4 things out. the we got a couple of good size like right now. so this is kind of the day we want to have right here the over the years. seattle, base 123, it has been operating in the bearings. c. like in simians, backyard, us catch shares of how a bit in alaska are limited to hooked and lines fixtures. so when these trawlers

accidentally couch, however, when facing for other species, they're forced to throw the fish back 5 and they're usually dead. these unintentionally cost fish are known as bi catch. there should be no way we should be shut down because we live right here that everybody else that comes out of wherever they come from in america is going to be able to come up here and dish. no, not right. the see the bike, which is accounting for almost all of what's available to be taken. of the halibut stock is or industrial, but it's or district water boats to fully prosecute their fishery. and the most economical way to go out there, set their nets, do on toes and just drove it side what they are allowed to keep the costs to them of during those how better of this size just costs doing business. thanks for come

in, say one of the really great things about this bike has issue is it unites groups cuz it's really important to everybody that cares about the how that resource linda bank. and the fisher herself is the director of the alaska long lines fisherman's association. in the early ninety's, she led the fight in which local communities successfully band trolling in southeast alaska. we had stuff in here, fishermen prowl ocean weaving waste in wake despite hunger. how's that for headlines? the fisherman of southeast alaska had a long term concern about trolling. having watched the foreign fleets operate right off our coast and huge decline and the eco system and the raffish, and the black hat and how of it. so this is a line of their catch per unit effort. so how much they were cap things per toe when they were trawling for this species of rockfish co pacific ocean perch. and then this is what was happening to the abundance of that fish. that's

a big part of our concern. and the early ninety's, a us 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, close this area to drawing towards co, wrangell juno, every community in se passed a resolution in support of the closure and submitted them all with the council it was a very motion pack 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 troll industry . i know easily at the time was sure that with this much support from communities in small but freshman, the counselor would do the right thing. it took another 5 years before they took

action to close trolling. it was the largest troll van 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, against a 100000 pounds of fish quality doesn't matter. i've been told that by 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 u. s. is celebrated the efficiency in affordability of an industrial system. that processes and preserves the massive amounts of food for consumers that's included. and today, there's 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. is more than one good way to 3 to fit the main problem with the, with the 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 of the fish, but why it keeps the flashlight spring queen. thanks a lot. higher quality product prior to going out on the same lander i was doing,

we're creating a mobile app, trying to connect people with local c food options. and during that time working on that project, i realize there needed to be more options and it coincided perfectly with meeting 10 and fishing 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 get really sad to think about this area, having relied upon their fisheries. and with a lot of the importance of food, we're kind of losing that new fishmonger is our idea directly selling fish

throughout new england's kind of re establish what new england sea food 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 prod, sustainably, the direct market approach. it has this differences are gonna walk in with a bunch of fish off the boat. we're not going to have suit and tie and fancy delivery machines. the,

the we are in august on one of the most ethically, and culturally diverse regions on the entire planet. as you make your way through the start, you will discover each region is known for its own unique arts and traditions the form from the start. i mean is how could i escape this to the results to not get the order is money lost cash that was on the 1st step of the implant? do i need to proceed this?

it needs to be the most of the way of giving this new to the business to do anything on the job cuz yesterday was a full time being unemployed. so i see mean nevada. let me just easy or go to the minneapolis so she left for that order. so they brought him to the college. and it says that a keys are actually due to the process is when the search of the phone was shipped to the home, puts it on. yeah, that is on your part from shay. they found it pretty for julie is the no boot kit, no. the office for this night they push out a little bit of a floating and your school previous yours. oh yeah. francisco for availability and also my phone. i'm not good, but it's something else i need to do is i have to go a little if it is and i'll go with what's going on. so before we move, we'll work on your, your cell phones allowing me and you have that because that gives you relief.

the 46 people are rested in armenia on the 3rd day of protest against the prime ministers. surrender of no garner oak harbor with locals and choosing the leader of treason and safety concerns for people living in the region. i know many people there who want to leave and cannot seem to amend that, right? they are staying there at the cost of their own, their relatives and their children's lives, the courage escalation and the boy in the car boss with cure the time when their menu was conducting joint exercises with the united states on its territory. versus deputy envoy to the un says the armenian prime minister's decision making on the crisis may have been influence.
