    Salmon won’t come back unless they change water policy. And the current wave is definitely pro-Central Valley farms over fishing.

    Remember getting seafood off the boats at Bodega Bay years ago. Now it’s obvious tourism and restaurants are the main thing keeping it going. If the economy drops and people stop going up Highway 1, they better have a fallback industry otherwise it will be rough going.

      fishing was never a sustainable practice anyways, they have to pivot at some point.
