Default A little respect for the commercial fishers

The fishers that are in grave danger are not the guys who drop pots in
the bay or net mullet in the canal behind your house. They are the
ones who drop pots in the Bering sea or fish off the Grand Banks.

Indeed.

In fact, if that sub group were isolated from the statistics reflecting
commercial fishing in general we can be almost certain the figures
would be much, much higher.
