I love the show. But, now that the derby system is over it's not as good for television. It's great for them - less risks and lives lost.

I love that show.

Dmac...I checked into the industry a little in college...I think the "grunt" would make around $20K in a season. Some jobs pay better than others, and the shittiest for the new guys pays the worst. You have to "earn" your way up..just like the guy told his kid on the last episode.

DISCOVERY has stolen me from the History channel.

Around 20,000 in a season. I think they fish two seasons a year, so around 40k.

Greenhorns make $200 a day unless the rest of the crew decides to cut you into a small %.

In past years they showed how much different guys earned. It was often well below 20k (per species/season).

Yeah, they talk up how much these guys "can" make in a few weeks, but the reality is that they make much less.

I remember the one season where they were getting record hauls, boats were having to go back and unload because they were over-flowing. It was clearly a rare occasion. Thos guys were making about 20K in less than two weeks, but it was obviously not typical with a normal season.

IIRC one year a bunch of boats were doing what I would consider average by the catch counts listed and I think deckhands walked away with around $6,000. Not bad for a weeks work, but bad for the risk you are taking (IMO).

I'm sure its like any other dangerous, "man-Job"...when the work is the hardest and things are going bad, you don't make much. I'm sure there are years those guys work their arses off and risk a popcicle's death with a swordfish hook through the dickwhacker for $100/18hr day.

I wonder how many Guys have watched this show and actually said "effit" and Gone to Alaska to do this BECAUSE of the show?

I'm glad they showed the guy who thought he'd try it out, so he flew in and got on a boat, and when it got rough started threatening to jump off the boat. I liked it because that would be me, no doubt. I'd think I was tough enough to hack it, but once the boat started rocking, I'd be done.

I just watched a show about fire ants on NGC last night. Amazing stuff.

They're trying to breed a type of fly in Texas that lays it's egg inside the body of fire ants. The larva grows and kills the ant from the inside out. Awesome "natural" approach to combat fire ant populations.
