Well, about a year ago, I saw a sea bass on ice.. about 15 inches, maybe a pound and a half that was old and nasty looking, white eyes, grey gills etc.. They wanted $15 for that one rotten little fish 'in the round'.. that was here in NY state at Wegmans....
With people paying prices like that, we have little hope of competing for our share of the fishery.. I fear the commercials have won due to the simple dollars equation.... Not trying to be a bummer, but salt water fish is becoming more expensive per pound than lobster or good steak, and we are standing in the way of this windfall... bob
