Fact is if you posses a comm license, you are a commercial fisherman. By that fact I am a commercial fisherman. Is it my job? No way. Do I consider my "professional". Definitely not. I know the real pros and "it aint me"! I have a 50-60 hour a week job not related to fishing. Am I/was I lucky enough to be taught how to fish and be successful enough(most of the time) to be able to afford my addiction? I thank those teachers frequently. Fact is I could ill afford to burn an easy 130 or so gallons per week w/out it. I think my situation fits the mold for many so called commercial fisherman. Art
