They’ll tell you that ‘we’ the fishermen and our families are labour activists. They’ll tell you that Labour have brainwashed and coerced us. ‘We’ are forcing an anti-freeport agenda. That they’re using us for their political gains.
Shame on them: exploiting political conflict for their own motives to make themselves sleep better at night.
They haven’t. We are not any one political party and we have our own voice - and their voice does not represent ours.

Their empty requests for financial report are a haphazard launched into the abyss so satisfy the media frenzy, to acknowledge that they were never going to consider anything but their own agenda. As if it ever could…

One month ago, the Norwegian fishing ministry shot #FreyatheWalrus dead, leading to media coverage saying she was “euthanized.”
Today, we look at four euphemistic terms used by industries that profit from #animal death and at outlets repeating this lingo without scrutiny. 1/10

Outlets like @guardian, @euronews, @CNN and @NPR were among many that used the word “euthanized” to describe Freya’s death.
A rare exception, which did not repeat the language used by the #fishing ministry, was a piece by @jasondhorowitz at @nytimes. 2/10

Animal #euthanasia is supposed to be an act that reduces suffering, says veterinarian @iltaylorwriter.
Freya was neither ill nor suffering. She was shot because Norway’s #fishing ministry @fiskeridir declared relocation “not a viable option.” 3/10

THREAD: So if you love #fishing and your water, something to consider. I have bald eagles, trumpeter swans, pelicans, herons here on the Lower #Wisconsin #River. Lead kills #birds. I lose probably more than my share of jigs and hanging with the @riveralliancewi got me thinking.
I am more pragmatist than activist, but #environmentalism hits home as you watch eagles soar as you fish pristine, delicate waterways. The 92 miles LWR is mostly in conservancy, and is recognized as a @RamsarConv Wetlands of International Importance. rsis.ramsar.org/ris/2417
So I cultivated a local guy who makes lures out of his garage. Very skilled fisherman too and I have learned a lot from him out on the water. Had him cast me this initial run of jigs out of tin bismuth alloy.

My mentor was a tall lanky fella from southern Missouri who had the uncanny ability to locate and catch bass like no one on earth. He truly was the best bass fisherman I’d ever met and was definitely responsible for teaching me how to catch bass in deep water. #mentor #fishing
Back before B.A.S.S. there were national bass tournaments, which most of us don’t really remember. But, ole Glen Andrews won nearly all of them! @bassmaster

Off the southern coast of the Sunshine state is a fisherman’s paradise. Those recreational anglers hoping to catch bonefish, permit, redfish, snook or tarpon should head to the “backcountry,” the waters between the Keys and Florida’s mainland. #fishinglife
The real draw for most visitors, however, are the deep seas of the Atlantic Ocean, caught in the warm Gulf Stream. Charter a boat in these waters to try your hand at catching some of the most sought-after fish in the world, like blue and white marlin, sailfish and swordfish.
Even if you don’t get any bites, you’re in luck—the Keys are home to some of the best seafood restaurants in the country. If you and your fishing buds can’t decide which type of angling your trip should consist of, consider heading to the Outer Banks.

Andrew #Marr Show: Frustrating to see Dominic #Raab dodge answering the real questions about the effects of #Brexit on the UK #fishing industry, just like Boris last week. 1. The export issues are not just teething problems, they are due to a fundamental systems shift 1/-
2. The increase in quotas will only go to a select group, the vast majority of vessels and therefore coastal communities will see no benefit. Some will be worse off due to new restrictions on the quota swapping system 2/-
3. What about restricting foreign access to the 6-12 mile zone off the British coast? The government said this was a red line and for many UK fishermen this was going to be the most important benefit from Brexit. Nothing has changed and Raab didn't answer the question 3/-
#China #Yangtze #Hunan #enviorment #fishing
A total 10-year fishing ban now applies in the pivotal waters of the Yangtze, China's longest river, starting on Friday, according to the central government strategy.
A total 10-year fishing ban now applies in the pivotal waters of the Yangtze, China's longest river, starting on Friday, according to the central government strategy.
Urbanization and shipping along the Yangtze River have resulted in the decrease or loss of marine ecosystems for decades. According to an expert, synthetic fertilizers and pesticides have also contributed to the river's contamination.
Also situated in the middle reaches of the river, Hunan Province closed and demolished all 39 illegal wharves along the mainstream Yangtze River while restoring the ecological ecosystem there. About 1,300 hectares of forest have also been planted by the province along the river.
