I am posting a link to a story in the Anchorage Daily News because it hits close to home for me.

I used to be a commercial fisherman and when I started a family I made the decision to stop. This story is exactly why. I was involved in this crab fishery and it sucked but the money could be great.

For those of you that have seen the Discovery Channel show on Bering Sea crab fishing you have a bit of an idea of what it's like out there.
