Don't do it - don't try to be a commercial fisherman. For good or for bad, it's a tough racket and it's only going to get tougher. There are too many hooks & nets as it is.
Get yourself and education or at least a trade that gets you close to the marine environment you want to be in but keeps you just far enough away that you can also ENJOY it!
Give up the romantics of the Perfect Storm. Personally I think you spend too much time on a computer to be outdoorsy enough to go out on a longliner for a month at a shot.
Oh - not a fan of longlining when it pertains to overfishing....
40 years ago, you could commercially & recreationally catch swords withing site of MV or Nantucket - now you start 400 miles out... A lot of good that did...
