Norway contemplates ending salmon season

Norway California will have company shortly as Norwegian authorities contemplate ending the salmon season. Quotas and restrictions have already been instituted, now a complete ban of wild salmon fishing is on the table.

A multitude of possible culprits exist – global warming tops the list, with acid rain and farmed fish escapees also cited.

The association of landowners and the SGSL – Sea Salmon Fishers disagree with the research and legislation, both groups profit greatly from the salmon fishery – and have a vested interest in the outcome.

It’s a similar tale to what we’ve experienced, just on the other side of the planet.

    As neither Nepal or the Sudan has a standing navy – the farmed salmon may be netted by Starkist – as there will be little repercussion.

    “National Waters” exist only if you can protect it – which is why the coastal waters of Africa are the current targets of all the developed nations mechanized fleets.
