You can bet the waste is substantial. The fish at the bottom of the net got crushed by the weight of the fish above them, and cooked by the friction associated with dragging the heavy net on board. That's probably 20% loss right there......

There isn't much waste when those processors make surimi. Those fish are left to stiffen up in that bin the net is emptied into. Then they'll get processed and most every scrap is taken. The blood in the meat is "whitened" out. Yum!!

Those fish are definitely not from around here but it's the same process in AK. It's amazing to see hauls of fish like that and know it takes place in every ocean. Some are sustainable( for now) and some aren't but there's by-catch in every fishery and that is wasted. The fish are dead and thrown over for the crabs- makes no sense.

From the youtube description - "Fishing in Iceland waters in the North Atlantic. Big catch of red fish hauled on board a freezing trawler. Documentary of fishing in the valuable water around Iceland."

My son had to take a video deposition on a surimi processor concerning a worker who had lost a finger while making fake crab. He stopped eating surimi after that assignment.
