Today’s generation faces new challenges like changing oceans, volatile global markets and rising entry costs. Fishermen can be great spokespeople for the future of their industry, coastal communities and the marine ecosystem, because their life and work are so intimately embedded in the ocean’s future.
We hope to share our knowledge and love of the sea with our children, as our parents shared theirs with us, so that they too can feel the power of the waves, revel in the beautiful sparkle of a fresh salmon’s scales, and spend their days closely connected to nature and the creatures that share this wild home.
