Much ado about Fisheries

A fishery is a stock of fish, a place where fish are bred; fish hatchery. A sustainable fishery is one that cannot be depleted or harvested in ways that harm the ocean’s ecosystem.

WOW! The ONLY U.S. fishery to be certified by the strict requirements of the Marine Stewardship Council is Alaskan salmon.
