I remember about 30 years ago, when I went on an elementary school field trip, you could basically fill a freezer with grunion from the take season, both from your own take and the take of others who didn't want the fish.

Ahhh, interesting! That's a beautiful beach, and makes sense about the ecosystem concerns. The grunion run I filmed, I was only able to spot a few squirming here and there.

been to the grunion run! But didn't have a license, and didn't see or smell anyone cooking. I've also filmed a video on a grunion run event in OC in my brief career as a video journalist for the OC register, but again, no eating

💥 Twitter/X posting has moved ~50 points to the right
🧩 Platforms are splintering
🔊 Fewer people are talking — but those still talking are more politically extreme
