So when they, uh, the USA and really the world has done what they call rationalizing commercial fisheries.
So it used to be that it was open entry.
You, if you owned a boat, you'd go pay $10 to register and anybody could go out and fish like crazy until the quota was caught.
Then everybody quit.
But that created this race for fish where even if the weather was terrible, if we had two days to catch what we catch, we'd go and maybe somebody would
sink or die.
And it flooded the canneries with fish all at once.
It was, uh, it didn't work in that way.
So they rationalized it and said, Hey, if you guys have always caught a million pounds of Pollock, you know, for these last five qualifying years, then we're just going to say that for the rest of forever, we're going to give you a million shares of Pollock.

Oh, something about where the fisheries based out of.
Oh yeah.
All right.
So they, uh, so when they rationalize the straw fisheries in Alaska, most of the participants at that point, like in the eighties, early nineties had been these big factory trawlers out of, uh, Seattle, Washington, but they said, we're going to do this 10% set aside.
