I am your Captain Commercial fishing in Alaska
Fishing in Alaska this summer on the Pillar Bay. The underwater shots were filmed in 1997 on the Jackie R from Gig Harbor Wash. The boat sunk the next year.

gotta love those red jellyfish running down the webbing from the powerblock while yur stacking the net.. watch yur eyes boys.. and dont wipe yur ass or take a piss without wiping yur hands first.. .. lol…
isnt that Sig Hansens Boat ? the Northwestern in the background at the dock?
as an ex commercial fisherman on the BC coast,, I can totally relate to everything in this video,, the only difference between canadian and amercian seiners is we use drums to spool our net aboard whereas you guys use the powerblock. also,, i think we can fish bigger boats,, wasnt the size limit on american salmon and herring seiners 55 feet at one time or has that changed since the 90s ? just curious
our biggest set was 130.000 lbs of Sockeye.. took 2 boats to brail out or net.. ours and another,, we can only holdf 80 thousand lb..we were deckloaded.. water coming up the scuppers..almost sunk.. hatchways open .. yikes!!,, gotta love the Johnstone Strait and 13 knot tide rips at Kelsey bay! woo-hoooo!!
58 feet
the town is very pretty…
nice vid
Great Video

cool video…trolling is awesome have to admit
They are purse seining, not trolling or trawling.
haha no i know…just saying trolling is awesome, going to do my second year this year. Pretty pumped for it
hahaha fuck yea buddy
I always say I'll never go back to seining.Until I see one of these vids. Now I miss fishing..

"WHAT IS THE SONG IN THE BEGINNING???"
That is the 420 Monks from Atlanta. They used to rehearse at my warehouse in Atlanta. The singer is Bonez from Stuck Mojo if you ever heard of them they were big in the 90's
whats the title, or is there even a title??
those were some MASSIVE sets!!.. Nice!!
I fished on the Jackie R in 1987 skippered by big Adam Ross Jr and only recently found out that she had sunk. I have very fond memories of my time spend on the Jackie R and also a boat owned by Randy Babbich called the Paragon!
I want to come to Alaska to do some commercial fishing too. Is it hard to get a job? and how much do they get paid in average?
If you think those are large sets, you should try cost recovery fishing for any of the many non-profit hatcheries up in AK. a 40,000 lb set was decent, but we had countless sets weighing in at over 100,000 lbs (with fish at a 15 lb average you can imagine what that looked like) heres to all the inseiners out there on the water. CHEERS!
Greetings YouTubers,
I'm casting for a new reality show that is similar to "Deadliest Catch". If you're a commercial fishermen that works in a dangerous/hazardous environment please email me ASAP. Thanks!

fuck you pussy boy! stay off my waters!
Hey I'm trying to get on a purse seiner this summer in Alaska.. I live in Seattle, but i'm just wondering how would you get onto a boat? i'm 16 by the way.
lilboy602, I fished on a seiner and i was 18 years old. I am pretty sure you have to be 18 years old. sorry bud, two years.
Walk the docks, and if yer folks say yes, then you can go. My first skiffman was 17, and he was kinda retarded, but awesome too. good luck-Alaska is calling you home!
