There was a similar article in the Seattle Times today, too.

One species I haven't heard much about lately is the Pacific True Cod. I can't be the only one who remembers catching a 15 fish limit in the Tacoma Narrows in the mid-70's, with 15 fish putting about 60 or 70 pounds of fillets in the freezer. Heck, you could even count on at least half a dozen three to ten pounders off the piers in Seattle.

Zippo, now. From what I've heard, it was due to massive commercial overfishing in Alaska.

Anyone else remember fishing for true cod here in Puget Sound? Any other info about their demise?

Fish on...
