Movn,
Your comments re wild product being superior to farmed product in every fishery are in fact very far from the truth.
Farmed prawns, oysters and Salmon all command a premium price to wild caught, particularly here in Australia due to the fact that wild caught fish are handled so poorly, can be more than 5 days old by the time they get to the market (older by the time they get to your plate) whilst farmed can be on your plate within 24 hours (alive one day, harvested then on your plate the next, you cant do that with wild caught and the way the fish markets work here in NSW at least).
Of course, there is no such thing as wild atlantic salmon here in Australia.
The other fact is that farmed fish have higher fat content (ask any chef, the flavour is in the fat) they are therefore moister and cook better.
There is also the fact that you can trace your farmed product back to source and you know what inputs have been used in producing it.
Furthermore, note this:
THERE ARE NO OTHER SPECIES OF COMMERCIAL SOURCES OF PROTEIN THAT ARE HUNTED RATHER THAN FARMED.

That is, we don't hunt chickens, cows, pigs etc etc, they are all farmed for commercial consumption, you simply can't compare these species with wild caught (you could historically, but a very long time ago).

Fish are the anomoly and farming fish is the industry of the future.

Personally, I find commercial fishing offensive and have to continually remind myself of the fact that I can no longer catch many species due to the fact that they have been overexploited by commercial fishermen, SBT included.
