If you want to see why fish costs so much, check out the photo about

Now, of course, please don't even think of clicking on that link if you
would be offended by
the commercial content of the page surrounding the photo. Fair warning.

I don't think anybody imagines professional fisherman taking
up their trade in an attempt to get rich quick & easy.

Some people seem to think that's true of teachers; others
believe it of soldiers & firefighters (or talk as if they
did). But seagoing fishermen???
