Rise of the Ratfish in Puget Sound

Wayne Palsson begins to sort a net full of sea life from the bottom of Puget Sound close to Foulweather Bluff (near Port Ludlow) - and it's overwhelmingly ratfish. Sometimes he can find 2 tons a day. There are an estimated 30 ratfish in Puget Sound for each man, woman and child in the state.
