The Chillean Sea Bass, aka the Patagonian Toothfish, a seriously endangered species (according to the Endangered Fish Alliance among others), is supposedly being overfished, and at least 50% of the annual harvest is poached (harvested illegally).
Now, the exact status of the fish is in dispute. According to the above source "Pirate fishing fleets that disregard fishing limits are illegally catching this fish from Antarctica. Unless people stop eating Chilean sea bass, it may be commercially extinct within five years.", Chefs all over the US are refusing to serve it, several other "environmental-friendly" groups echo it's endangered "status". Perhaps "hyped claim" would be a better word.
From the U.S. Dept. of State and Commerce: "Is Chilean sea bass an endangered species? No."
It IS difficult to manage, fetching very high prices. In 2000, 16,000 pounds were harvested legally. it is POSSIBLE 2x that was taken illegally.
Sounds kind of like Global Warming. :idea:
Now, the connection. :D

I could have had barn or horned owl some years ago as I got buzzed by one once while out deer hunting. Was really cool and he passed over my head after circling me once looking me over low enough that I heard the wind in his feathers, and for an owl, that's damn LOW. :eek: If I had just poked my rifle barrel straight up, he'd have hit it. I was sitting in a camping chair on the ground behind an evergreen tree.
Ahhhh the things you are blessed to see in nature being a hunter. That was a great start to a beautiful day not at work. :)
Don't remember if I got a deer that day or not. Doesn't mater as it was a great day off of work. :)
Prolly woulda tasted like chicken. :D

Yea, I heard they delivered the bass in a Prius...and it was fresh since it was delivered at over 100 MPH, sprinkled with a dab pot, and viola..."Pot Bass".:D
