    Just subscribed. I have an opportunity to be a deck hand on a boat this season. I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about it. Ya know seasickness, anxiety, maybe a little claustrophobic. Just the feeling of not having control I suppose. Any words of advice from experienced fisherman? I still have a chance to say no and I wouldnt want to waste anybodies time by going up and working a week and freaking out haha... The captain and I are meeting up Monday to discuss things and that might put some of my worries at ease. I feel like I need the challenge and would be proud of myself if I stick it out and work hard. It's also only 3 months so it's not that bad. but man I just can't shake this feeling of anxiety can't even really put my finger on what I am worried about.. maybe I just need to sack up hahaha.

    • @cobeyherbert2672
      @cobeyherbert2672 9 місяців тому +1

      99% of inshore fisherman have either grown up doing it or atleast know people in the industry. But like it would be easy enough to go down to an unloading or loading ward and ask people if they know anyone looking for a deckhand. And for the offshore industry I’m not as sure but I’d say it’s much the same but a good chunk of those people will be factoring ur workers rather than fisherman so it’s easier to get a job on those boats

    • @cobeyherbert2672
      @cobeyherbert2672 9 місяців тому +1

      Also inshore means within 100 nautical miles of land which is roughly 180 kms and is made up by smaller boats with crews of around 2-5 on average. Offshore is past the 100 nautical mile mark and is made up by the big factory trawlers with massive crews of like 100 people and they stay out at sea for 3 months at a time
