Hmm, the article was somewhat interesting, but after spending 15 minutes with it, I felt it just ended up rambling without a clear point.
Not that that's a bad thing -- there's something to be said for long narrative. Or reading something for atmosphere.
But especially for a coastal eco-website/magazine, I would think the writer would try to emphasize more of a focused point or question / issue for the reader to ponder. Like the need for fisheries management, or the cost of shipping fish around the globe, or the struggle of a quota'd fishing boat, or something like that.
This one wandered among several different topics, touching each one briefly but never really sticking to a theme and driving the point home. Even the last paragraph, which usually ends up with a question or big point, read just like any other paragraph or sentence. Ah well.
