Commercial Fishing

[Skillet]

Man, I can't believe how many shrimp tails you had in that pic.  We fish max 5 in our boat, so it's 400 tails and after popping those, I'm about happy the season is one day.

@stein  - That bin holds about 1100# of tails.  I figured that we popped an average of 8000 heads a day... the most we did was about 15,000 heads in one day.  But with three people who've got the technique down and some good music on deck, it gets done. Eventually.

I just sat and read all 37 pages of this post.... Very informative and and enjoyable!  Thanks for sharing your adventure @skillet

That's the reason I started this - to create yet another internet rabbit hole for you to go down.  Glad you enjoy the stories from my boat and other guys on here.

Or you could do the cheap version by hooking a hose to the warm faucet on the boat and sticking that in through the back of the neck on a wetsuit and it will push warm water all over in the suit.

Mine was more sarcasm than anything but I'd for sure be rigging up some sort of warm water hose contraption if I had to jump in

 I'd have to charge double for my shrimp to cover that one 

I'm thinking the pre-peed in, stitching-pulling-out-of-the-seams craigslist model is more my speed.

I think your a little late but h20hunter had you covered on that a few months ago

He eats too much asparagus.

Do not.

That hold is cold cold cold. I'd totally pee in the suit.

Skillet, I may have missed it previously, but how many pots do you use?

[Skillet]

We're allowed 140ea 39"x 16" Ladners, or 90 ea  of the next size up, I think they are 42"x24".  I use the 39" version.

[Skillet]

Haha, they're coming...
I'm also trying to get some neat stuff together for a HuntWa buy.

Halibut?
Black cod?
Tuna loins?
Weathervane scallops?
King crab??

I'd be all over some King Crab to go with my shrimp.
