a lot of places in the world.
Alaska, in fact, has, I think about 60% of Alaska has been closed down to bottom trawling because we acknowledge that it's this kind of ecological disaster.
It kills the coral, it kills the fish on the bottom, all the habitat.
But then there's this other category of trawl, which they call midwater trawl.
And so that's primarily used for the pollock fisheries up there, which is about a 3 billion pound extraction per year.
Not a lot of people know what pollock is.
It's essentially like the bait fish of the
the North Pacific.
And they, uh, that fishery actually began because they were targeting roe, which is caviar essentially, um, to sell to these other nations.
So.
They're targeting pollock roe or herring roe?
Pollock roe.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's, uh, they push back hard now and say we're feeding the world, but the origin of this fishery was for caviar essentially.
And it's still a huge driver.
That's, they get about five pound, $5 per pound for the pollock roe versus about 10 cents per pound for pollock flesh.
I was going to say, is your wife watching this?
Dude, you should, I should fish more.
