"Sea Bass" was simply dreamed up to market the fish in the US, as "Patagonian Toothfish" doesn't sound very tasty. It doesn't bear the slightest relation to the various fish on the West Coast and East Coast of the US called "Sea Bass."
I don't eat any fish I don't catch myself, but I'd really recommend people not buy Chilean Sea Bass.
They're so slow-growing they simply can't sustain a commerical fishery. If you buy it, you can't be sure it was caught legally and I doubt it can even survive the current legal fishery.
This isn't environwacko hype, it's simply reality. This species cannot survive a large scale commerical fishery.

then had to help it navigate out to avoid a full-scale rescue operation. The Uruguayan-registered Viarsa then sped off again. Sounds like an L.A. car chase.

The decision to pursue the Viarsa highlights the increasing anger in the southern hemisphere that northern countries have over-fished their own waters and are turning to the south for more fish. WTF is wrong with this reporter? All the countries involved are from the souther hemisphere.

That's like "orange roughy" it is really Pacific Slimehead.
As the stocks get fished out the boats have to go deeper and deeper, there are several instances where the real name was simply too unappealing.

Is that anything like a saber-toothed crotch cricket?

As long as the sea is rough and the fuel holds out, the trawler will continue to outdistance. They'll have to use more hardware and other ships to interdict, because a one-on-one race in heavy seas favors the plodding trawler.
