Isn't that one of the most dangerous/extreme jobs there is? iirc they do 6 months on and 6 months off to recover.

Isn't that just because of the season that you can fish for lobster?
Maybe, but I'm sure there was a documentary on them on one of the Discovery channels and it looked really hard and dangerous and nasty and cold and wet and bumpy and scary and etc etc

Ye ive seen that aswell very dangerous out at the sea they said some figure like always 1 person dies every year.

On the program they showed someone fell in but luckily someone had hold of him.

Not sure what the sea is like round Nova Scotia but I know the survival time in the North Atlantic is <4mins is you go overboard. :eek:

Na thats alaskan crab fishing, My family on my dad's side does do some normal crab fishing though, as well as shark, tuna, and some other random fish I cant remember. Its not nearly as bad as the Alaskan fishing stuff, on season they head out on the boat around 4 or 5 and are back to the dock around 1ish, and home again 4 or 5ish in the evening on a good day. The season lasts longer as well because each fisher with a lobster/crap/whatever liscence gets their own "allowence" (cant think of the right word right now) of crabs or lobsters, so its a lot slower pace. Its a good though, by retirement age, your liscences and fishing boats are worth well over a million (cdn dollars).

Still bloody madness though. Crabs/lobsters all shellfish ain't it? lol. :D
 
Good heavens - I got a character's species wrong from an effeminate Disney animation. I feel like such a 'tard :(
