Swords:Life on the Line

Is anyone as disgusted as me about this show on Discovery Channel about long lining swordfish? I only tuned in once and they were filling thier deck with 150# and up fish that they could not get in the hold (because it was stuffed full) that would probably rot and go bad before they got in....and still rolling in those long lines with more hooked fish. I am no tree hugger and not under some illusion that this and many worse things happen in our world but some things I just don't need to see.

About as insane as the use of Gill or entangling nets.....just a overkill. I didnt see that Discovery Channel program...but am aware of other stuff that goes on that makes that show seem "tamed" :mad:

I hate how they put a price on each fish as it hits the deck
