    This story makes it sound like the “new tech” from that CR firm is more about protecting the already-mollycoddled farmed salmon grown in open net pens from the wild environment than vice versa...

    Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t some judge already make a decision on the procedural fairness of the decision? or was this an injunction on the decision? I’m confused. https://decisions.fct-cf.gc.ca/fc-cf/decisions/en/item/521348/index.do

    Aquaculture; improving????

    If we are going down the “incidental catch“ rabbit hole, I think it best to understand the Conditions of Licence for marine finfish aquaculture and the definitions therein. https://www.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/aquaculture/licence-permis/docs/licence-cond-permis-mar/index-eng.html#8 It will then become...

    Trailer Crossbeam Repair

    I was thinking the same as what @Flashman wrote. But in addition, if the steel brackets were galvanized then there is a third metal at play. The zinc galvanizing would go first, then the aluminum would begin to sacrifice next and the bare steel would begin oxidizing (rusting) which would cause...

    Tell Your Best Joke

    The following is not my best joke. It is the best punchline that AI came up with when I gave it this intro: “Three fishermen walked into a bar.” They had a fish. The bartender said, ‘The usual?’ The fish said, ‘Sure, but hold the water.’

    Vandals do costly damage to a West Van volunteer search and rescue boat

    A motley crew of stupid taggers. Should be easy for W. Van police to track down the tag but camera angles will make tagger ID difficult. Here’s a funny story from my younger years: A rally was planned at a fish farm some distance away and a group of boats was organized to ferry people to and...

    IMHO, Recommendation #33 is also a very good one.

    South East Alaska Chinook Catch Data

    One difference is that fishing in the Kachemak Bay area is outside Pacific Salmon Treaty waters ergo not considered in treaty negotiations.

    Aquaculture; improving????

    Just my guess but could be because it isn’t licensed to grow Atlantics. Or that it is only licensed for 230 mt. About 1/10 the size of the farms growing Atlantics.
