The preceding paragraph says the exact opposite, but I can take the point that multiple sources are saying fishing trash is significant. It doesn’t sound like the trash visible near Mexico is the same as what they call the Pacific Garbage Patch. Either way, I cannot believe that what I saw was fishing boat trash, there was far, far too much of it. Maybe it’s beachgoer waste, maybe it’s industrial waste. Anyway, you should go look yourself before forming an opinion!
