Most of the time when we talk about overfishing, we are talking about fishers, who are travelling further, and spending more money to catch fish. But what does this mean for those who work in the fish selling business? If it’s getting harder to catch fish, is it getting harder to make a good return in markets? On this show we visit Snap Fish Solomons in Honiara and hear from Samuel Mui who is the supervisor who is driving change! We also hear from our show regular David Aram from the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources – and how government is working to turn this around.
