This week, Artemis program manager Carlee Koutnik tells us about her summer trip aboard a fishing boat called the Warthog in Bristol Bay. The sockeye fishery is a frenzy of activity, and Carlee got to work aboard a 32-foot fishing boat schlepping salmon. We get an inside look at the fishery, the regulations that keep it viable, and the business of commercial fishing. Plus... how do you go make a poo on a small fishing boat? Stay tuned.
