    I hope this works as intended and the fish stocks can be replenished.

      Implementing no fishing zones have shown that at least in seas and oceans, fish stocks and diversity can replenish incredibly fast because they become nurseries. Salmon might be more difficult tho.

      Stock is a pretty gross term. They are living beings. I hope that the ocean ecosystems can be repaired, and human corporations never resume pillaging their bodies

        If China wanted to goto war over us stopping their illegal fishing practices in our waters I say let’s fucking go.

          I agree. They are contributing to ecosystem collapse all over the western coastline. Even down to South America.

    Damn, prices of salmon are going to go crazy now and all the salmon lovers are going to lose it. Lol. I don’t eat it anyway, but that’s good if it’s getting endangered.

      I love salmon

      I also know that conservation is key and if fishing is impacting them, then it’s best to go a period without salmon

        It only impacts the wild caught industry as well, farm raised salmon will still be readily available. Atlantic salmon has never had a commercial season for wild salmon in my lifetime because we would wipe them out in a single season, so it’s not that different from them.

        People will just have to become more cognizant of where their fish is coming from. Avoid salmon from inshore farms if you can, the offshore farms are the best quality of life for the fish and have a nice fat content to them for extra flavor due to the better access to food compared to wild fish.

          You know what’s wild? That we feed roughly 9 billion people… Daily… Every day. Every. Single. Day.

          Even if we cut out the malnourished or rationed people, we are feeding in excess at least 300 million in the US. I can’t accurately understand that number of mouths to feed vs the wild. We are absolute savages and don’t even understand it. We consume animals like zombies.

            you know what’s REALLY wild? When I was a kid, there were roughly 4.5 billion people to feed every day. I’m not that old, but the global population has doubled in my lifetime. Crazy.

            On top of that, the US throws out something like…40% (I think?) of the food we produce. And a significant portion of that is food that has a long shelf-life in order to cycle out branding/labels.

        I happen to watch Life Below Zero as background noise and other salmon fishing has been banned for a few years. A couple of the cast members used to catch large quantities of fish to feed their sled dogs.

      I’ve always bought huge salmon fillets at Costco and chopped them up into maybe eight servings. It was always worth it. But just over the course of a year they’ve risen from around $25 per fillet to $40. I’ve told salmon to go ahead and go fuck itself.

      It’s better to have expensive salmon now because we can only harvest so many, than to have expensive salmon in 10 years because there are hardly any left.

      Salmon is already expensive as hell a small piece the size of my hand is freaking $14

      Even if it weren’t their idea I don’t think it would apply to them. If they fish in their recognized territory I don’t believe they have to follow federal fishing limits.

        Overfishing is their ancestral right!

        Or maybe we should just protect the salmon from all people.

          We planning on forcing other countries to stick to fishing limits as well? Because that’s essentially how reservations are legally treated, and for good reason.
