That's completely wrong!
Things like that are the cause of the depletion of fish in our oceans, not recreational fisherman. I wouldn't be surprised if the fins on that roof represent more killed sharks than all the California recreational fisherman combined take for a year. I recently watched a documentary about why the tiger is endangered and it was really shocking, tigers are being mass murdered for the production of tiger bone wine which is illegal yet government run tiger "sanctuary's" which are intended to breed tigers for release to the wild are mass breeding them for the illegal mass production of this is wine which they believe is a miracle cure for everything... The asian cultures which encourages over harvesting of practically everything is just wrong in my opinion. |

There addiction to hunting and killing thousands of whales for "research" is bad enough but when you really think about all the stuff there killing to the point of endangerment its beyond sickening.... And the DFG has the nerve to say were the cause of overfishing. They close our fishing areas yet there's still trawlers along our coast from overseas catching our fish. |

dont worry theres plenty of shark meat, livers, spleen and skins being processed in the factory below all those fins... tuna too.
and say theres 10,000 fins up there. divide that by 6 or 8. lets say 7, since most sharks have more than two fins right? ok so its 20,000 fins. still only 3,000-4,000 sharks. about the same taken in socal by recreation fishermen who do not use the fins, liver or skins. just want the meat and/or teeth.

it already has brother when you said "OUR" ocean...you were right. not to bring in the new year with yuckiness, but look into what comercial fishing is doing to oceans.... longlining, sharkfinning, traulling, and all the other unstainable fishing practices that go on unchallenged. |

I use the fins for soup on the ones I catch, it turns out real good. Not sure what to do with the liver and don't know how to preserve the skin, which would be cool though. And yes, I keep the teeth, my grandson like them.

Disgusting....The culture needs to change or this will continue on a large scale. The videos of dumping finless sharks back in the water are the worst...

Honestly guys, almost all of your comments are misinformed and opinionated. The DFG is not the problem... its the special interest extermist environmental groups... Instead of getting pissed off and screaming on the internet why not do something productive instead? Educate your frinds and family about local sustainable fisheries....? NOthing will change unless we stop importing fish from contries that practice illegal fishing methods. It all starts with the consumer....

Videos like these are made to serve one purpose. They aim to sway public opinion by highlighting atrocities. Mentioning that they also harvest whole sharks wouldn't have helped pass the legislation to make shark fins illegal....

Showing only videos like these to the public is exactly how the "blue shirts" got their following. That is why 80% of their numbers at the MLPA meetings had no clue that they were arguing irrelevant points. Most of their numbers thought that most species off our coast were almost extinct. They were teaching the school kids that we were "blowing up" fish and destroying coral reefs in our local waters. Don't get the tunnel vision that goes along with mob mentality.
