A fisherman came back from a fishing trip. He kept thinking something wasn't right. It finally dawned on him. He didn't smell 'fishy'. How can you come home from an all day fishing trip and NOT smell fishy. We are hoping Texas and the Laguna Madre can be used to seed La, but things are very perilous. Folks forget that Alaska had a thriving herring industry until the Valdez. Totally killed it and there is still a sheen if you press down on the moss.
