They describe the challenges and dangers they face, as well as the rewards that they have reaped. The book is a fascinating account of life in one of the most dangerous jobs in the world.

One of the World's Deadliest Jobs

Commercial fishing is one of the world's deadliest jobs. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH),the fatality rate for commercial fishermen is 28 times higher than the fatality rate for all other workers in the United States.

The dangers of commercial fishing are many. Fishermen work in extreme weather conditions and they are often exposed to dangerous marine life. They also work with heavy machinery and they are often required to work long hours.

Despite the dangers, commercial fishing is a vital industry. The fish that commercial fishermen catch provide food for millions of people around the world. The industry also supports the livelihoods of countless families.
