About Me
- Wiglaf
- A local rock-perching observer of Gulf of Alaska fisheries who is fed up with the lies and deceptions rampant in Kodiak regarding the world's dirtiest fishing gear type, trawling. Unless bycatch and benthic damage are brought under control, the short term profits of trawling will result in the death of the Goose that lays the golden eggs...the Gulf of Alaska. Join us in our fight to overthrow the corporate oligarchs and democratize Alaska fisheries for long term sustainability.

I feel like a hippie to say it, but this is fish murder plain and simple...
Sport fishermen are so careful to release our undersize/bycatch fish safely (well at least I am) and to see such disrespect for fish is an embarrassment to the whole fishing community. This kind of information should be publicised, hell, sick the granola munchers on them for all I care.
Screw the whales, get those boys to save our FISH!
