Thanks for the reminder - I've been waiting for it to come on -

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Well I watched it and have mixed feelins about it.
It is a dangerous, tough job.
I have seen the other crab fishin documentaries, but I didn't quite get this one. Is this a game show? It is sponsored by Bud weiser, so is it a tournament? Why did they have the "crab count"? Does the "greenhorn" that can't hack it get voted off the boat?
This show seems like a commercialized, dressed up overkill remake of the alaskan crabbin gig.
The guys are die hard to go out there and do it. Bless the guys that didn't come back and were never seen again.

That show is no documentary. It is a reality show. If they mentioned one more time that this was the world's most dangerous job, I was going to scream. I saw enough and it was bad.
