Good article. Crab and other fisheries are a hell of a business to be in right now here in Oregon and the PNW. The good thing is that crab is good at reproducing and the catch this year seems good. I am going to go out and purchase several today to help them all out.

Good article. I live on the shores of Humboldt Bay. Skimpy crab catch this season and there was no salmon season...

I wonder if he also owns interest in the Fierce Allegiance, of Deadliest Catch fame? They're painted the same.
