You mention fish, but the scarcity of the fish population and human greed in our desire to catch unusual fish may cause problems with the fish supply in the future.

That's what I'm saying Bez.
There are many varieties of fish in this area - skate and idiotfish come to mind - that are not in any danger and that most people won't touch. Other well-managed fisheries like sablefish, cultured shellfish like oysters and mussels, and populous fish like shark are largely ignored because most people would prefer to eat "trendy" and exotic fish from thousands of miles away. Fish like Chilean sea bass and Atlantic swordfish are in danger exactly because of this.
