All of them tell me they are throwing more halibut over than they are catching on a tow of their directed fishery most of the year. Many either quit because they couldn't watch all those halibut die anymore. One fellow told me of when they were catching 70-80,000 lbs of cod and dumping it back dead to catch 10,000 lbs of rocksole. Tow after tow until he told the skipper to take him to town.<br /><br />If the trawl fleet was 100% observed and retained on board they would be just about be out of business. Why the NPFMC doesn't make p.cod a bycatch only and not a directed fishery is crazy. Our halibut all over the state except 2C is being shoveled over the side (fish weighing 1-9 lbs) and sometimes bigger. The draggers are killing our future, as well as the present when it comes to Pacific Halibut.<br /><br />It's definitely us against them, our $6-7 a lb fish verses their $0.10-0.45 a lbs fish.
