    • Sad and inspiring! We suffer from the oceanlife population levels decreasing back home. I'm from a fishing town in Alaska, and have witnessed the decreasing population of fish (and wildlife). I qualify to subsistence fish, and when we gather fish in the estuary, elders stop on the bridge to get their dibs on their share. But I, along with the rest of Alaska are running out of food! I'm hungry and I want the diet I was raised on: hunting, fishing and gathering. Grocery stores in my region have limited selection and expiration dates. Locals depend on fish as a staple food source, and we are losing it so fast! It worries me.

      It seems like everyone wants to eat Alaskan seafood, but few maintain the fishtank.

    • While producing this segment, I was able to taste Kona Kampachi. I thought it was really good, especially raw. Definitely worth trying out.
