I enjoyed the show. Reminded me of my lobstering days out at the canyons. Anyone on here know Norbert Stamps? I fished on his boats out of Snug Harbour on the "Edge Runner", and "The Brendan & Kevin". Hard work but it was quite the adventure. After a week at sea, as soon as I got in my truck, and hit the beach traffic, I would get so aggrivated I'd wish I was back on the boat again. Some trips I wouldnt even go home. Just sleep on the boat for a few days till the next trip.

Only thing I hated about lobstering was being 100's of miles offshore in the middle of the night, on a choppy sea, standing on the stern with my heels almost hanging off, holding on to the stack of 4 or 5 high of pots for balance, all while and having to help the same stack of pots go off the back. If I fell in most likely no one would've even known about it because the pots were stacked over my head! very scary...very scary indeed....

Hey S-Journey, how hard is it to land work out there? If I were in shape, (recently shattered my heel) I'd give it a shot. I was in the Marines so sleep deprivation is not a big deal for me. Maybe next year. More medical bills than you could imagine....I need money like a fat kid needs cake!

How hard is it to work out there - hmmm - let me put it this way. If there is hell on earth, I've been there - and it's a lot harder than the shows make it out to be. I really loved it but when you get into a situation you always say "what the hell am i doing here, what was I thinking, is this it, am I ever going to make it home?". Then things pass and you get home and can't wait to get back out there.

I sent you a PM, I might be able to help you with a job out there....
