Cut The "COD" Crap!!!

[thør]

When I used to crab, we could be doing great, but then you pull a pot and there's a gawd damned cod in it. Nuthin else.
Ol Frank used to shake his head and say, "no self respecting crab would climb into a pot with a cod"
He was right

Codfishing is in the family bloodline.

In the '60's, we'd get cod from the halibut fishermen in Seward. It was bycatch and if you went down to the boat, they'd let you take what you could carry back up the ladder. It was always a good meal that evening.

Newfoundland has a recreational atlantic cod fishing season that I intend to partake in this year.

What time of the year? I might be headed that way this year.

I don't know exact dates right now but mid July to mid August and then second half of Sept.

A buddie of mine captains a shrimp boat there and I'm heading out with him in his own boat...supposed to be a blast jigging for them but I love eating them.

Shit...thats gonna mess with the Great Slave Lake trip

Cod stocks have collapsed from overfishing. That is why NL has a 'recreational' cod season. No more commercial fishing. 500 years of over-fishing means tilapia and roughy are the most common fish I supermarkets

In 1992 the Canadian Federal Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, John Crosbie, declared a moratorium on the Northern Cod fishery, which for the past 500 years had largely shaped the lives and communities of Canada's eastern coast. The interplay between fishing societies and the resources which they depend on is obvious to almost any observer: fisheries transform the ecosystem, which pushes the fishery and society to adapt.[2] In the summer of 1992, when the Northern Cod biomass fell to 1% of its earlier level,[3] Canada's federal government saw that this relationship had been pushed to breaking point, and declared a moratorium, ending the region's 500-year run with the Northern Cod.

Atlantic Cod is an outstanding. Although when your gutting them, what a smell.

I like cod. A good go-to fish.

And while we're on it, remember when you used to be able to order something COD? You don't see that anymore.

Another good COD is Black Ops. Fun game.
