We even built a new class of warship, the "Kingston Class", which is specifically designed as a coastal defence ship, and is often used to warn off foreign fishing vessels that come into our territorial waters.
not only the Grand Banks being stripped bare , here in California the commercial Salmon season has been cancelled again for the second year , no fish returning to the spawning grounds .

apologies to original poster for thread wander but fish and cormorants do have a lot in common

I don't think that is a wander. This is a wander: "How 'bout them Jays, eh"! And even then, there is a link to cormorants ... if you spend a lot of your youth shagging flies, and you get good at it, you may end up in the majors making the big bucks
