Dear Readers,
It is with much sadness that I must inform you that this will be the last edition of Fishermen’s News. Since acquiring the rights to the publication in 2021 after it closed down during the covid pandemic, my team has worked hard to bring you great content, which I hope you found valuable. The publication was funded by advertisers, and with the downturn over the past few years in the west coast commercial fishing market, fewer and fewer advertisers were able to support us. I am very grateful to those advertisers that did, and gave us the opportunity to serve you, our readers. I hope you will consider supporting all of the advertisers that you see in this issue.
Thank you to my great team for all of your efforts to put together a high quality publication. I am also thankful to you, our readers, for supporting us through your subscriptions.
I wish you all safe voyages and good fishing.
Dave Abrams, Publisher
