I seriously question this report. If you listen VHF radio at Alaskan Coast there is active market going on all the time. If the "Cannery" does not want the lot, the "Fish Plant" will. So it is not like they destroy valuable wild fish to feed less valuable farmed fish.

Would be pretty nice if they just caught less fish if they don't really need them all.

Some fish species are actually harmful to the environment. In the Nordic countries they often try to get rid of the roach, which muddies the water and destroys the habitat of more worthy fishkind.

This is complete nonsense.

If there is any species that is "harmful to the environment" it is humans.

Thou knoweth nuffing. The lake turns into smelly soup harboring poisonous algae, which kills indigenous species, like easter bunnies and red-nosed reindeers.
