Summary:
Petite Forte - the pollack came to Petite Forte this year and mingled with cod on the inshore grounds. We'll go fishing with the Jones brothers and talk with Michael Walsh, patriach of this isolated community on the west side of Placentia Bay.

Crab Fishery - The crab fishery in Newfoundland is a very lucrative one, but as the fishery intensifies, vessels have to go farther afield to harvest. We go crab fishing aboard the "Sco-Be J" a crab boat out of Bay De Verde.
