4 Ocean's Bounty

The bays and straits around Port Protection offer a bounty of edible aquatic life. As a community that focuses on a subsistence lifestyle, the breadth of food beneath the surface is unparalleled. But, in order to reap the reward, they must pay the price. The danger of the open ocean can take life as easily as it gives it. Sam and Stuart build shrimp pots out of discarded materials. Gary uses the extreme tides to chase down clams and invertebrates. Curly aims to catch his first king salmon of the season. Hans and Timbi use the break in weather to store their shelves with more halibut. And Mary Miller finds pleasure in the little things at smaller estuaries.
