1000 commercial fishing licenses in Michigan to 50 today according to the Environment Report series Swimming Upstream which is investigating why it is so hard to find Great Lakes fish at your local market or restaurant.
GreatLakesWhitefish.com has more on Petersen Fisheries which is featured in the IPR story.
The next episode is about selling fish at the local Farmer's Market and how successful that has been for The Fish Monger's Wife.
So the next steps seems obvious, a CSF.
Community Supported Fisheries act like a CSA and allow you to get your fish directly, without a middleman. It means jobs for commercial fishers and fresh fish for consumers.
The most recent CSF I have read about is Off The Hook CSF in Halifax.
