  3. Retro? Farm Salmon from Norway and Chile have ramped up production, and are flooding the global market. Where's Gunnar Knapp's assessment for 2012?
    Bristol Bay wants to know!
    What's Icicle been doing with their farm salmon investments? Are they one of the vertically integrated Farmed Salmon Processors that are controlling the global arena? They have enough revenue to buy out SnoPac...They must be able to pay their fishermen the same as last year...huh? That was the claim made last month....What Up??? Should I buy that brand new refrigeration unit?....Or just buck some more ICE Again this year?

  8. Seriously: what a great topic. Fish prices. Why isn't there a blog for that, at least for fisherman to report what they received? Why not have postings to corroborate information, and dispel rumors? There is no advantage to keeping that a secret, as a business. I Believe that has always stunted fishermen around the world. Knowledge is a good thing, and I bet most of you have googled 2011 Bristol Bay Sockeye prices, unsuccessfully.

    Let's start here. Icicle came out on 4/2/12 with another .15 + .05, for a total of 1.25 for 2011 Bristol Bay 100k# season.

    Wes-maybe you can start a forum topic for this?

  9. Farm salmon sales volume has increased 37%, since the new year....How is this going to impact our bottom line in the Bay? Are global markets expanding? What's the U.S.$ stength compared to the Yen, Euro and Yuan? Tired of being passified! Come On-WES!....It's time to Bring It!!!

  12. What's the matter with entertainment, coming soon to Wesley's Brig Blog!

    "I do have a home in Arizona where we spend a big part of the winter," Johnstone added. "My interest in the snow and the coldness in Anchorage has waned a little bit and we're able to spend some time in a little warmer climate and I'm happy to do that."

    Johnstone said the state benefits when he pays for his Anchorage hotel with a state credit card.

    "My work starts as early as 5 o'clock in the morning where I meet with stakeholders and the public," he said. He'll meet long into the evening too, he said.

  14. Ex Judge?

    Wonder what School Bus he missed?

    Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka

    APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS

    No. 1. Argued: Argued December 9, 1952Reargued December 8, 1953 --- Decided: Decided May 17, 1954
    Segregation of white and Negro children in the public schools of a State solely on the basis of race, pursuant to state laws permitting or requiring such segregation, denies to Negro children the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment -- even though the physical facilities and other "tangible" factors of white and Negro schools may be equal. Pp. 486-496.(a) The history of the Fourteenth Amendment is inconclusive as to its intended effect on public education. Pp. 489-490.(b) The question presented in these cases must be determined not on the basis of conditions existing when the Fourteenth Amendment was adopted, but in the light of the full development of public education and its present place in American life throughout the Nation. Pp. 492-493.(c) Where a State has undertaken to provide an opportunity for an education in its public schools, such an opportunity is a right which must be made available to all on equal terms. P. 493.(d) Segregation of children in public schools solely on the basis of race deprives children of the minority group of equal educational opportunities, even though the physical facilities and other "tangible" factors may be equal. Pp. 493-494.(e) The "separate but equal" doctrine adopted in Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U.S. 537, has no place in the field of public education. P. 495.(f) The cases are restored to the docket for further argument on specified questions relating to the forms of the decrees. Pp. 495-496.

  16. What did Trident pay and kick down?...

    ReplyDelete
  17. What about YAK and Ocean Beauty?

  18. trident, I think ended at $1.30 rsw

    heard Leader Creek only ended with $1.42, tough to justify that extra hand and work for just about ten cents, but then again, if we have smaller seasons coming up this extra bit helps.

    i bet processors are loving all this gossip about prices being lower for sockeye so they can really nail us come July 15th, after 85% of the BB season is done. What other type of business do people go out and work for a price that is not agreed upon. At least those pollack guys got something right.
