I am sure they get some kind of compensation like that, plus I am sure that with the TV exposure, the captains are selling merchandise on their websites and get appearance fees now. At one point it was the highest rated show on that network (National Geographic?).
12 hours and the fish was primo..perfect core..I've cooked 'em in 45 minutes...

A good run is better than a bad stand!
