Some are having trouble getting adjusted to a new way of life.
What are the fisheries prospects from your perspective ?

"Life is Good!
Still going strong but Life as I had it before 4-20-10 may never be the same.
Adjusting to a new way of life in a different atmosphere could be disasterous.
The last job I had was every man's dream. Being in good (almost Great) health I had an opertunity to go to the best fishing place in the world and fish about 120 days a year offshore. This was to be my 7th year down here and things were going great untill big money cut corners and caused a major disaster. As it stands now I am doing work for BP and the promise of pay to equal our charter or for hire vessles sounds good but We have yet to be paid. I have one day to go on my hitch and we will see how long it takes to produce the payroll.
The fisheries prospect is not good at all. Oil is already in the marsh and we are loosing our ability to clean it up once it gets there. Another bump in the road
Fishing is not a matter of life or death. It's more important than that.
This situation is really disturbing - I saw this article and thought it might be of interest - there is technology available to deal with this - why are they not even considering this?
I am thinking of you and all the fisherman in the Gulf.
