“Anchovies and Sardines”, from “Positive Changes That Are Occurring”
By Jeff Miller, Gurnee, IL, July 20, 2022
“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
― From “1984”, by George Orwell, 1949
THE SCIENCE, THE TRUTH - THAT ANCHOVIES DOMINATE IN COLD WATER CONDITIONS:
”Support for the climate theory comes from the close correspondence between population abundance and climate conditions e.g. in the North Pacific for instance, sardine dominates under warm conditions, while in cold phases, anchovy prevails (Lluch-Belda et al. 1989)."
From “The European anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) increase in the North Sea”, by Kristina Raab, 2013
“The number of anchovy is influenced by various climatic factors, especially susceptible to changes in water temperature. The rise in temperature negatively affects the mortality of eggs, larvae and fry due to the breeding conditions.”
From “Climatic changes in the abundance of anchovy in the Southeast Pacific ocean”, by the Russian State Hydrometeorological University’s Irma Martyn, Yaroslav Petrov, Sergey Stepanov, and Artem Sidorenko, 2020
AND THE FALSE PROPAGANDA REBUTTING IT:
“A warmer world – one with elevated levels of CO2 in the ocean’s surface – favors anchoviesover sardines.”
Francisco Chavez, senior scientist at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, 2014
“Warmer ocean spurs feasting along coast - Large schools of baitfish off the coast of Point Reyes, presenting a feast for birds and sea mammals and a strange sight for locals last month, may have been lured north and inland because of warmer ocean temperatures this year.”
Point Reyes Light, May 2014
“Anchovies thrive in warmer water and feed off plankton.”
From “Booming anchovy population helps salmon, orcas”, by Shelby Miller, June 2019
“But University of Victoria researcher Will Duguid, who studies chinook salmon ecology, published a study late last year showing the number of anchovies in the Salish Sea increasing in tandem with sea temperatures. He is not surprised that anchovies are showing up in the Burrard Inlet, Indian Arm and near the shores of Port Moody.”
From “How blooms of northern anchovies are helping bring more sea life back to Burrard Inlet”, by Yvette Brend, cbc.ca, June 2020
"Anchovies return to Turkish coasts, prompting price drop - Anchovies return to Turkish coasts, prompting price drop - Anchovy herds have returned to the Black Sea as the temperature rises, prompting the price of Turkey’s popular fish to plunge.
However, a significant increase has been observed in the number of anchovies caught especially in the last two weeks with heavy snowfall and cold weather that has been affecting Turkey’s Black Sea coast."
Hurriet Daily News, February, 2022
SAME PSEUDOSCIENTIFIC PROPAGANDA, DIFFERENT YEARS:
“We’re seeing a lot of (anchovies). A lot a lot a lot.”
Executive director of the Moss Landing-based California Wetfish Producers Association Diane Pleschner-Steele, 2013
“This year in South Sound, we saw a lot of anchovies and, not just a few, I mean, lots of them.”
Washington State Department of Ecology senior oceanographer Christopher Krembs, 2019
THE DATA
In 2012, Australia had the best tuna catch in history, due to the fact that “the sardine stock is so good and it is the feed which attracts the tuna so close to Port Lincoln.”
In 2013, anchovies in Monterey Bay, California increased to the highest level in history.
In 2013, Executive director of the Moss Landing-based California Wetfish Producers Association Diane Pleschner-Steele said “We’re seeing a lot of (anchovies). A lot a lot a lot.”
In 2014, each month in the United States documented below average temperatures.
In January 2014, whale watch operators saw more anchovies, and more whales, than they had ever seen, in all history.
In 2014, NOAA’s Kevin Hill said “So far there is no empirical evidence of an anchovy resurgence in California…I’ve heard reports of the anchovy fishery picking up in Monterey, but we’ve seen similar [even larger] upticks in the catch over the past 15 years.”
Uptick - noun - a small increase
In 2014, NOAA’S Kevin Hill said that there were 378,120 metric tons of sardines in the Pacific Ocean. The only problem is, Government acoustical surveys for sardines don’t include the ocean’s surface, where the species resides. Industry surveys – using aerial spotting – put the number of sardines at 900,000 metric tons - more than double NOAA’s false estimate.
In January 2014, the folks in charge cut the sardine quota - cut it literally in half - under the false guise of “saving the sardines”:
In 2014, Francisco Chavez, a senior scientist at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI), said “The sardines have really started to go,” says , Chavez, adding that the abundance of anchovies in Monterey Bay this fall and winter can be seen as a sign. A regime change has come.”
Boldly, brazenly, in the face of a rapidly-cooling Pacific Ocean, the fish Feds are claiming that the cold-water anchovies moved into Monterey Bay because they like warm water, and that the sardines - whom there are twice as many of as the Feds are claiming - have left because they can’t stand the heat.
Remember: “sardine dominates under warm conditions, while in cold phases, anchovy prevails (Lluch-Belda et al. 1989)."
“The sardines have slid fast…have really started to go”…it’s the “Big Lie” so favored by Hitler, Goebbels, small town Mayors in the U.S., and ever last other political figure on God’s green Earth. With the truth being that the sardines have departed Monterey Bay because it is cooling.

In October 2014, Antarctic Sea Ice reached the highest maximum in history.
Essay: Without using “because that’s there”, “El Nino”, or the word “extreme”, describe the precise geophysical mechanisms by which the hottest year in recorded history could have the highest expanse of Antarctic sea ice in recorded history.
In 2015, anchovies appeared in British Columbia’s Salish Sea for the first time in history, and, by 2109, were present there in huge, historically-unprecedented numbers.
Cbc.ca author Yvette Brand said ”But University of Victoria researcher Will Duguid, who studies chinook salmon ecology, published a study late last year showing the number of anchovies in the Salish Sea increasing in tandem with sea temperatures. He is not surprised that anchovies are showing up in the Burrard Inlet, Indian Arm and near the shores of Port Moody."
That’s a bald-faced lie, given that, in cold phases, anchovies prevail.
From 2016 to 2018, fish exports from Oman increased by 59%, driven largely by the sardine catch.
In 2019, Washington State Department of Ecology senior oceanographer Christopher Krembs described the sudden, exponential increase of anchovies in the Salish Sea to the highest level in history as “we saw a lot of anchovies, and not just a few, I mean lots of them.”
Krebs offered no suggestion as to why anchovies began, in his words, “popping up” in the Salish Sea in 2015 for the first time in history, and increased exponentially, since. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “stonewalling”.
From. 2019 to 2021, the anchovy harvest in the Caspian increased ninefold.
Author Ivan Stupachenko attributed it to “Efforts by the Russian Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography”. That’s a propaganda technique known as “plausible deniability”.
In June 2020, anchovies and humpback whales appeared in Port Moody, British Columbia for the first time in history.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, when anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those many variants is “surprised”. That’s why University of Victoria researcher Will Duguid said he “is not surprised that anchovies are showing up in the Burrard Inlet, Indian Arm and near the shores of Port Moody”. Duguid attributed the sudden appearance of anchovies to “increasing sea temperatures”.
That’s a bald-faced lie, given that, in cold phases, anchovies prevail.
From 2021 to 2022, Peru’s anchovy quota increased by 12%.
From April to June 2022, the Anchovy trawl total in Lower South San Francisco Bay increased by 8,865%, from 29 to 2,600. It was the second highest total in history, behind only January 2022’s total of 2,934.
The University of California’s Otolith Geochemistry & Fish Ecology Laboratory, Department of Wildlife, Fish and Conservation Biology offered no suggestion as to why the anchovy population of San Francisco’s South Bay had suddenly increased exponentially to the highest level in history. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “stonewalling”.
In June 2022 the Pacific Ocean near San Francisco was the coldest in a decade.
THE ARTICLES
In January 2013, Australia’s Adelaide Now described the best tuna catch in the history of Australia as “Best tuna catch in 30 years for SA”. Where, under the false guise of familiarity, the propagandist omitted the word “Australia”, to make the subject drastically less searchable. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
[image]
(Bluefin Tuna, Australia, 2013)
The article goes on to say “Australian Southern Bluefin Tuna Industry Association chief executive Brian Jeffriess said the recovery of tuna stocks had provided the best catching season since 1982 when the wild-catch tuna industry was in its heyday. ‘Part of the reason that there are so many tuna is that the sardine stock is so good and it is the feed which attracts the tuna so close to Port Lincoln. The management of the sardine stock is world-class and a credit to the industry and the SA Government,’ he said.”
From 2016 to 2018, fish exports from Oman increased by 59%, driven largely by the sardine catch.
In January 2014, a Monterey County Weekly article said “Tiny Sardines, Mighty Lessons”.
The article goes on to say “There’s a simple explanation why this fall’s whale watching season was so unusually epic on Monterey Bay: anchovies. Thousands of tons of oily, wriggling anchovies, far more than whale watch operators are accustomed to seeing this time of year, orever.
Wait, what? The headline says “sardines”, while the story documents an anchovy population that suddenly increased exponentially to historically-unprecedented levels in 2013. The use of “sardines” in the headline makes the subject of historically-unprecedented anchovy populations far less searchable. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The article goes on to say “Nancy Black, a marine biologist and owner of Monterey Bay Whale Watch, has been leading bay trips for 26 years.
“We’ve never seen so many whales,” she says, “and never this many anchovies.”
Can you see how she led with whales, and put anchovies second? That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “hedging”.
I’m sure you noticed that “so many” whales and “this many” anchovies are both general. Even though she professes to love her some whales like it’s her job, Nancy is using these hedging generalities to blunt and defray insight into the magnitude of the great positive change I’m documenting here.
Like the anchovies, and every other fish of the sea, sardines are also increasing exponentially in number to historically-unprecedented levels.
As we read further into the article, we learn how the folks in charge of the sardines have rigged the game, and cut the sardine quota - cut it literally in half - under the false guise of “saving the sardines”:
“CWPA’s Pleschner-Steele is more specific with her criticism of the cuts, saying that government acoustical surveys don’t include the ocean’s surface, where the species resides. ‘They’re missing the top 30-odd feet,’ she says, “which is where most of the sardines are.”
Industry surveys – using aerial spotting – put the number of sardines at 900,000 metric tons, more than double NOAA’s estimate.”
But, since you are a mouth-breathing, NPR-addicted Coincidence theorist who lives in a generational Satanist police state, the article goes on to say “The sardines have slid fast, however, since that 2006 peak, and their projected biomass for next January is 378,120 metric tons, a drop of more than 70 percent from 2006.
“The sardines have really started to go,” says Chavez, adding that the abundance of anchovies in Monterey Bay this fall and winter can be seen as a sign.
A regime change has come.”
Boldly, brazenly, in the face of a rapidly-cooling Pacific Ocean, the fish Feds are claiming that the anchovies moved into Monterey Bay because they like warm water, and that the sardines - whom there are twice as many of as they are claiming - have left because they can’t stand the heat.
It’s the “Big Lie” so favored by Hitler, Goebbels, small town Mayors in the U.S., and ever last other political figure on God’s green Earth.
Directly in the face of the 900,000 ton’s-worth of the largest sardine schools in history, the Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC) widened their eyes to simulate honesty and said it was half that size, and reduced the U.S. Pacific catch by 100%. They’re using conscious deception while maintaining the firmness of purpose that goes with complete honesty.
The article goes on to say CWPA’s Pleschner-Steele said “My disappointment is for the precedent the council set,” she says. “They have harmed the industry unnecessarily.”
Where “harmed the industry unnecessarily” is Mil-speak for “deliberately put 50% of sardine fishermen out of business” and “price rigging”. Saying that putting 50% of the sardine fishermen out of business and engaging in blatant price-rigging is merely disappointing is the violent understatement of another participant in the Confidence game being worked upon you.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. Two of those many variants are “incredible” and “unbelievable”. That’s why the article goes on to say “Like sardines, anchovies are schooling fish that provide important food for mammals and bigger fish. Like us, they mostly gather close the coast because they’re smaller than sardines and not big enough to migrate. That was the case this fall, when millions of them schooled in Monterey Bay, fueling the frenzy of humpback whale and sea lion feeding so incredible it had to be seen to be believed.”
As you can see, anchovies in Monterey Bay suddenly increased exponentially to the highest levels in history in 2013.
But the first rule of Politics is “deny, deny, deny”, which is why the article goes on to say “Only a dearth of scientific attention accompanies the societal ignorance, making it hard for research fishery biologists like NOAA’s Kevin Hill – who authored the agency’s sardine stock assessment – to announce the anchovy is on the rise.
‘At the moment, we know a lot more about the status of sardine than we do anchovy,” he writes in an email. “So far there is no empirical evidence of an anchovy resurgence in California… I’ve heard reports of the anchovy fishery picking up in Monterey, but we’ve seen similar [even larger] upticks in the catch over the past 15 years.”
NOAA’s Kevin Hill says he knows what’s up with the sardines, because he’s got data on them - data that’s been deliberately reduced by 50%, by not surveying the top 30 feet of water where the sardines almost exclusively live. Then he lies that bald-facedly he has no idea that the anchovy population on the west coast of the United States suddenly increased exponentially to the highest levels ever recorded in 2013.
[image]
(NOAA’S Kevin Hill, who said that there were there were 378,120 metric tons of sardines when there were, in fact, 900,000 tons of them. Monterey County Kevin sandbagged by reducing the actual number by 138%, which the Organ of the State the Monterey Weekly hedged back to Weekly “more than double NOAA’s estimate”).
I’ve included Kevin’s picture so that you could get a better idea of what a generational Satanist in a position of marginal influence looks like.
Now that we’ve heard from a Trusted Authority Figure talking head, let’s go to the man on the street:
“But the locals who live and breathe the Monterey Bay fishery know a boom when they see one.
“We’re seeing a lot of them,” says Pleschner-Steele. “A lot a lot a lot.”
Wait, what? The author from the Monterey County Weekly dangles the bait that they’re going to include a quote from an honest citizen, and then switch to another fellow generational Satanist shill, who, while claiming to love her some anchovies like it’s her job, somehow can’t produce any actual numbers, but rather runs with the Romper-Room “a lot a lot a lot”.
Shill - noun - The word entered English via carny, originally denoting a carnival worker who pretends to be a member of the audience in an attempt to elicit interest in an attraction.
An extended form of German Schieber (“black marketeer, profiteer”) via *shi-la-ber.
As a bonus, Pleschner-Steele played the ubiquitous “more assiduous anchovy-watching” ruse with “seeing a lot of them”.
The article goes on to say “ ‘It’s never been like this with sardines,’ says Monterey Bay Whale Watch’s Nancy Black. Nancy’s another generational Satanist shill, posing as an honest citizen. We know that because she, like the Feds, is lying bald-facedly about the historically-unprecedented number of 900,000 actual sardines that she sees from her whale watching boat ever day, because the sardines reside in the top 30 feet of the water, the top thirty feet the Fed’s aren’t scanning for sardines.
The generational Satanist shills just keep on coming, with “MBARI’s Chavez adds a wrinkle, saying that a warmer world – one with elevated levels of CO2 in the ocean’s surface – favors anchovies over sardines.”
And concludes the Church of Pseudoscience service for today.
A Point Reyes Light article from May 2014 said “Warmer ocean spurs feasting along coast”.
Where, under the false guise of familiarity, the headline omits any mention of geography, making the subject almost unsearchable. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
During the coldest year in anyone’s memory, which would later be categorized as the hottest in recorded history, the author bravely, brazenly attributes the only-generally mentioned “feasting” to the only-general “warmer ocean”.
Focus with me:
In July 2014, an article that I can not surprisingly no longer locate said “Each month in 2014 has experienced below normal average temperatures.”
In October 2014, nasa.gov said “Antarctic Sea Ice Reaches New Record Maximum”.
Essay: Without using “because that’s there”, “El Nino”, or the word “extreme”, describe the precise geophysical mechanisms by which the hottest year in recorded history could have the highest expanse of Antarctic sea ice in recorded history.
I have exposed the duplicity of the Point Reyes Light by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “strange”. That’s why the article goes on to say “Large schools of baitfish off the coast of Point Reyes, presenting a feast for birds and sea mammals and a strange sight for locals”.
Only a mouth-breathing Coincidence theorist could imagine that the locals in Point Reyes would find the largest schools of baitfish in history “strange”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. Three of those many variants are “abnormal”, “off the charts” and “El Nino”. That’s why the article goes on to say “An avian ecologist with Petaluma-based Point Blue said that “off the charts” numbers of pelicans in the area last month might also point to abnormal ocean conditions and a coming El Niño”.
Where, spectacularly, a quasi-mythical, only-slightly-warmer-than-normal spot of water in the vastness of the Pacific Ocean named “El Nino” is held to have caused an exponential increase in the pelican population of Point Reyes, California even prior to El Nino’s formation.
The article goes on to say “Bolinas resident Burr Heneman wrote […] he had only seen such a massive baitfish [sardines] event in Bolinas a few times in the past 40 years, and never in the spring—only in July or August, and only with anchovies. […] Large sardines […] might not typically reach this area until June, said Russ Vetter, a senior scientist at NOAA […]”
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those many variants is “unusual”. That’s why the article goes on to say “Avian Ecologist with Point Blue, Dave Shuford, wrote to the Light that the number of pelicans seen at Bolinas Lagoon was highly unusual for this time of year. That could reflect breeding failures elsewhere”.
Despite the fact that pelican populations are increasing exponentially regardless of geography, Dave bravely lies out his ass that the most pelicans ever seen in Bolinas bay “could reflect breeding failures elsewhere”. Do they, or do they not reflect breeding failures elsewhere? Can you see how he’s making up a possibility, versus making a factual statement? Can you see how “Breeding failure” is general? Can you see how “breeding failures elsewhere” is general? Perhaps most spectacularly of all, Dave lies that the most pelicans ever seen in Bolinas bay was “highly unusual” not because of the number, but because of the time of year that it happened.
The sleight-of-hand continues with “Although occurrence of pelicans in the (hundreds) is not unprecedented in the Point Reyes area in April, the numbers seen the other day appear to be […] about 2,600 pelicans at Bolinas Lagoon on Sunday, which is off charts, I think, for April.”
He thinks? Remember, he’s an “Avian Ecologist”, who loves him some pelicans like it’s his job. He’s bravely held to the bizarre suggestion that 2,600 pelicans appeared at Bolinas Lagoon all the time, only just not in April. He throws in “the numbers seen” to imply that it was somehow more-assiduous pelican-spotting that led to the all time highest number of pelicans in Bolinas Lagoon in all history.
Neither the Avian Ecologist, who loves him some avians like it’s his job, nor the author from the Point Reyes Light mentions that the sudden, exponential, historically-unprecedented increase in the pelican population in Bolinas Lagoon in 2014 maps against similar concurrent, exponential and historically-unprecedented increases in bird populations that were taking place regardless of species or geography at the moment the article was written. That’s an example of the propaganda technique called “compartmentalization”.
Here’s Dave Shuford’s picture:

(Dave Shuford, the Avian Ecologist from Point Blue who said that a quasi-mythical spot of slightly warmer than normal water the Pacific Ocean known as “El Nino” caused an exponential increase in the pelican population in Bolinas Lagoon even prior to El Nino’s formation)
The photo is from when he received a “Science Excellence” award, probably for suggesting that a quasi-mythical spot of slightly warmer than normal water the Pacific Ocean known as “El Nino” caused an exponential increase in the pelican population in Bolinas Lagoon even prior to El Nino’s formation.
I’ve included Dave’s picture so that you could get a better idea of what a pathologically-lying generational Satanist shill of moderate influence looks like.
Shill - noun - an accomplice of a hawker, gambler, or swindler who acts as an enthusiastic customer to entice or encourage others.
In July 2014, the Los Angeles Times said “Massive school of anchovies swarms off La Jolla”.
I’m sure you noticed that “massive school of anchovies” is general. The author added the fear-inducing “swarms” as a bonus. For any mouth-breathing Coincidence theorists lingering in the readership, fish don’t “swarm”, they school.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. That’s why the article goes on to say “A massive school of Northern anchovies could be seen migrating off the coast of La Jolla on Tuesday afternoon, baffling scientists who said they haven’t seen anything like it in more than 30 years.”
The propagandist from the Los Angeles Times ran with the general “more than 30 years” to avoid printing the inconvenient truth of “have never seen anything like it”.
[image]
(The largest school of anchovies ever seen, in all history, La Jolla, California, July 2014 )
The article goes on to say “A large crowd formed at the Scripps pier around mid-morning to watch the anchovies, said Robert Monroe, a communications officer with Scripps. Monroe ran down to the pier with a GoPro camera, initially thinking it was a red tide.”
[image]
(The caption of this photo is “an oil spill or a sea plague? It’s a massive school of anchovies!”)
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. Two of those many variants are “remarkable” and “amazing”. That’s why the article goes on to say “It was remarkable. From a distance it looked like an oil slick and you think ‘What happened?’ and then you get up close and it’s amazing,” he said. “It’s like watching the motion of a lava lamp.”
Wait, what? Robert Monroe, a “communications officer” with Scripps, first said he thought “it was a red tide”, and then later in the article said “it looked like an oil slick”.
Those are examples of what propaganda professionals like “communications officer” Monroe refer to as “spin”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. That’s why the article goes on to say “He said scientists didn’t have an estimate on how many fish were in the school. Members of the Scripps Marine Vertabrate Collection have collected samples to be studied, Scripps said in a news release.”
Wait, what? Aren’t the only-generally-referenced “scientists” from the Scripps Marine Vertabrate Collection, who love them some fish like it’s their job, supposed to make size estimates on historically-unprecedented schools of fish?”
For the record, yes, they are. The omission of any estimate of the size of the largest school of anchovies ever seen, in all history is an example of what propagandists refer to as “stonewalling”.
Neither the author from the Los Angeles Times, “communications officer” Monroe, or the only-generally-referenced “scientists” from the Scripps Marine Vertibrate Collection offered any suggestion as to what had led to the unprecedented gathering of anchovies. That’s another example of what propagandists refer to as “stonewalling”.
There’s also no mention of the fact that record anchovy populations on the West coast of the United States are part of a larger boom in marine populations taking place simultaneously and regardless of geography. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those many variants is “unbelievable”. That’s why a gowhales.com article from April 2014 said “Monterey Bay has become the richest marine region on the Pacific Coast. In the past three weeks, it has reached a new peak with unbelievable hordes of anchovies…”
Did you notice how the propagandist from gowhales.com used the term “hordes” of anchovies? It’s identical to the Los Angeles Times’ use of the term “swarms” of anchovies, above. For any mouth-breathing Coincidence theorists remaining in the readership, anchovies do not “swarm”, nor do they gather in “hordes”. They school.
In September 2017, the Orwellianly-named deeply.humanitarian.org said, only-generally, “Feeding Frenzy: West Coast Anchovy Boom Masks Ecosystem in Peril”.
"We saw a lot of anchovies, and not just a few, I mean lots of them. They started popping up (in British Columbia’s Salish Sea) in 2015 and have been on a surge ever since. I’ve been flying 10 years and I’ve seen normally sort of what’s going on there, I have not seen this on that scale.”
Washington State Department of Ecology senior oceanographer Christopher Krembs, 2019
In June 2019, kiro7.com said “Booming anchovy population helps salmon, orcas”.
Where, under the false guise of familiarity, author Shelby Miller omits any mention of geography, to make the subject almost unsearchable. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
For the record, she’s talking about British Columbia’s Salish Sea.
The subhead reads “Swarms of anchovy can be seen swimming through the South Sound”.
Swarm - noun - a large or dense group of insects, especially flying ones.
“a swarm of locusts”
The population is booming, even impressing experts, who’ve studied the Salish Sea for years.
“Normally, we see a lot of algae blooms, we report oil sheens, macroalgae and jellyfish. This year in South Sound, we saw a lot of anchovies and, not just a few, I mean, lots of them,” said Christopher Krembs, Washington State Department of Ecology senior oceanographer."
Washington State Department of Ecology senior oceanographer described the sudden, exponential increase of anchovies in the Salish Sea to the highest level in history as “we saw alot of anchovies, and not just a few, I mean lots of them.”
“They started popping up in 2015 and have been on a surge ever since.”
“I’ve been flying 10 years and I’ve seen normally sort of what’s going on there, I have not seen this on that scale,” said Krembs.
“Anchovies thrive in warmer water and feed off plankton.”
From “Booming anchovy population helps salmon, orcas”, by Shelby Miller, June 2019
“The number of anchovy is influenced by various climatic factors, especially susceptible to changes in water temperature. The rise in temperature negatively affects the mortality of eggs, larvae and fry due to the breeding conditions.”
From “Climatic changes in the abundance of anchovy in the Southeast Pacific ocean”, by the Russian State Hydrometeorological University’s Irma Martyn, Yaroslav Petrov, Sergey Stepanov, and Artem Sidorenko, 2020*
In June 2020, cbc.ca’s Yvette Brend explained “How blooms of northern anchovies are helping bring more sea life back to Burrard Inlet”.
It goes on to say "But University of Victoria researcher Will Duguid, who studies chinook salmon ecology, published a study late last year showing the number of anchovies in the Salish Sea increasing in tandem with sea temperatures.
He is not surprised that anchovies are showing up in the Burrard Inlet, Indian Arm and near the shores of Port Moody.
In Port Moody, MacVicar says the anchovies are attracting dozens of Arctic Sabine’s gulls and, this past week, a pigeon guillemot, a bird more common to the open ocean.
He says he’s seeing more sea lions and seals in the area, and with them, potentially, come transient, mammal-eating orcas.
But his biggest treat came a few weeks ago, when he got to witness a humpback feed for hours.
“For the first time in my lifetime, I saw a humpback whale feeding in Port Moody,” MacVicar said.
Here’s a picture of author Yvette Brend:

I’ve included her photograph so that you could get a better idea of what a generational Satanist in a position of marginal influence looks like.
They’re all related to one another through the maternal bloodline. They comprise between twenty and thirty percent of the populace, and are hiding in plain sight in every city, town and village on Earth.
It’s how the few have controlled the many all the way back to Babylon, and before.
But they say that the hardest part of solving a problem is recognizing that you have one.
Don Croft used to say “Parasites fear exposure above all else”.
In June 2020, anchovies and humback whales appeared in Port Moody, British Columbia for the first time in history.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, when anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those many variants is “surprised”. That’s why University of Victoria researcher Will Duguid said he “is not surprisedthat anchovies are showing up in the Burrard Inlet, Indian Arm and near the shores of Port Moody”. Duguid attributed the sudden appearance of anchovies to “increasing sea temperatures”.
Keep that in mind as we review this, by Kristina Raab, from “The European anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) increase in the North Sea”, 2013: “Support for the climate theory comes from the close correspondence between population abundance and climate conditions e.g. in the North Pacific for instance, sardine dominates under warm conditions, while in cold phases, anchovy prevails (Lluch-Belda et al. 1989).”
Here’s Will Duguid’s picture:

I’ve included his photograph so that you could get a better idea of what a generational Satanist in a position of marginal influence looks like.
They’re all related to one another through the maternal bloodline. They comprise between twenty and thirty percent of the populace, and are hiding in plain sight in every city, town and village on Earth.
It’s how the few have controlled the many all the way back to Babylon, and before.
But they say that the hardest part of solving a problem is recognizing that you have one.
Don Croft used to say “Parasites fear exposure above all else”.
In January 2022, Science.org said “climate change threatens one of world’s biggest fish harvests - Warming waters could replace abundant anchovies with smaller, less nutritious fish”. In June 2022, the San Francisco Chronicle said “Pacific Ocean near SF has been the coldest in a decade”.
In February 2022, hurriyetdailynews.com said “Anchovies return to Turkish coasts, prompting price drop - Anchovies return to Turkish coasts, prompting price drop - Anchovy herds have returned to the Black Sea as the temperature rises, prompting the price of Turkey’s popular fish to plunge.”
In May 2022, seafoodsource.com said “Russia’s Caspian Sea anchovy catch increasing”.
I’m guessing you noticed that “anchovy catch increasing” is only-general.
That’s quite deliberate. As a propagandist, author Ivan Stupachenko knows that, since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this technique goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the speed and scope of the sudden, exponential increase in the world’s anchovy population that I’m documenting here.
The article goes on to say "Efforts by the Russian Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography (VNIRO) to increase the catch of anchovy in the Caspian Sea appear to be paying off, as the country’s catch has been beating expectations.
Through 4 May, 18,000 metric tons (MT) of anchovy have caught – ahead of the 2021 results, when 32,500 MT was harvested through the whole year. The 2021 number was nine times higher than the catch in 2019, when commercial fishing of the species resumed in the Caspian Sea for the first time in decades. Commercial fishing of anchovy was banned in the sea for 20 years to rejuvenate the stock."
Wait, what? If commercial anchovy fishing was banned from 1999 to 2019, then the Caspian would have been chock full of anchovies in 2019, untouched by commercial fishing. And numbers would have, if anything, decreased the year after the first “open season” was called. Yet the anchovy harvest in the Caspian increased ninefold from 2019 to 2021. The commercial fishing ban is a ruse, a chimera. The folks in charge knew the great positive change was coming, and, helpless to avoid it, proactively banned commercial fishing in 1999 so that they could crow that their only-general “efforts” had “saved the anchovies in the Caspian”.
The truth of the matter is that the etheric environment there has improved to the point where the anchovy can once again manifest within it.
Which truth is underscored by the sudden “popping up” of the anchovy in the Salish Sea in 2015. I will beg the Coincidence theorist to recall that Washington State Department of Ecology senior oceanographer Christopher Krembs didn’t mention anything about how or why that might be taking place. That’s because he’s desperate to keep you from recognizing that the size, fertility, longevity and very existence of any organism vary directly with the health of its etheric environment.
I’m sure you noticed that Ivan Stupachenko didn’t say anything about anchovies in the Salish Sea, or the highest anchovy populations in history in San Francisco’s South Bay. That’s because he’s practicing the propaganda technique known as “stonewalling”.
Most fortunately, you are reading a scholarly article on booming, burgeoning marine populations, and will emerge from doing so the wiser.
In May 2022, intrafish.com said “Peru announces hike in anchovy quota”. The article goes on to say "
“Peru’s Ministry of Production (Produce) has authorized a 2.792 million-metric-ton anchovy quota for the first season of 2022 in north central waters. The quota is 12 percent higher than the same period last year.”
From 2021 to 2022, Peru’s anchovy quota increased by 12%.
In June 2022, Popular Mechanics said “Hallelujah, It’s Raining Fish (Anchovies, To Be Exact)”
The subhead reads “Birds are to blame. They’re so full, they’re dropping their catch on San Franciscans’ roofs.”
It’s what is referred to in the Intelligence trade as a “hit piece”. It pretends to say “hallelujah” (a veiled anti-Christian reference), but in fact is creating negative thoughts in your mind about booming, burgeoning anchovies.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “unusual”. That’s why the article goes on to say "The anchovy population is spawning, and their numbers have been unusually high since 2020. Sea birds are having a feast, eating the fish until stuffed, and then dropping their unwanted food in random places. Researchers believe this is a temporary phenomenon, due to the unusually high population of anchovies.”
In June 2022, ogfishlab.com said “Fish in the Bay – June 2022, Record Anchovies and Gobies!”
Where, under the false guise of familiarity, they’ve omitted the name of the bay, top make the subject almost unsearchable. For the record, it’s San Francisco’s South Bay.
The article goes on to say “The Anchovy population just exploded in Lower South SF Bay.” The monthly totals in April and May were 29 and 52, respectively. The total number leaped to over 2,600 for the June trawls. This is the second-highest monthly total we have ever seen. It is exceeded only by the January 2022 catch of 2,934."
From April to June 2022, the Anchovy trawl total in Lower South San Francisco Bay increased by 8,865%, from 29 to 2,600. It was the second highest total in history, behind only January 2022’s total of 2,934.
In June 2022, the San Francisco Chronicle said “Pacific Ocean near SF has been the coldest in a decade”.
