If you ask the fish whether they'd rather have an oil spill or a season of fishing, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd vote for another blowout.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think I'll not attempt to do a 'Fish Out Of Water 2.'
That's what 90 percent of the people talk about when they're first exposed to the fish.
Would the fish have ever been caught if it had kept its mouth shut?
Fishing is much more than fish. It is the great occasion when we may return to the fine simplicity of our forefathers.
I don't know how you prepare for something like that. I cannot imagine living in a fishbowl like that. I don't live here so I don't know it will be that bad anyway because I live in Paris and we don't have that sort of phenomenon there. So I don't know, we'll see what happens.
When the fishbowl gets too small, it's time to pack up and leave and jump into the lake or ocean.
But they are not going to take on Big Oil because Big Oil is very generous at campaign time, and this is all about the elections. They want to pretend that they are doing something meaningful.
When I fish, I stop thinking about anything else. But truth be told, if you want to declare victories, I can tell you the fish have won a lot more than I have. It's interesting that something with a brain the size of a fish's can outsmart us humans, who think we are el supremo.
There is no need for an end to fish, or to fishing for that matter. But there is an urgent need for governments to free themselves from the fishing-industrial complex and its Ponzi scheme, to stop subsidizing the fishing-industrial complex and awarding it fishing rights, when it should in fact pay for the privilege to fish.
If the oil runs out, we'll be reduced to fracking Alex Salmond.
