Fishermen from the trawler Teresa Marie III, docked in Gloucester, MA, offload halibut from a one week voyage in the fishing grounds of the north Atlantic.
Today when I visited the piers in Gloucester, MA and spoke to the deckhands and pier crew offloading several tons of halibut, I couldn’t help but think about the fresh, farmed, and frozen fish from China that is sold in our local supermarkets.
