Vlog 5: A full day of lobster fishing off of Yarmouth Nova Scotia. Big Thanks-You to Capt Chris and the crew for letting me tag along for the day and film. If you have any questions or good fishing stories please comment below!
Well iam watching this video on July 16/22 and the price of fuel world wide is high , so these guys will feel the pinch more and more . Great video , now i see how the traps leave the boat and come back on , and how the anchor pulls everything off the boat , awesome .
Great Video, went deep sea fishing off Nova Scotia this summer and it was a fantastic experience. Nicest people in the world out there in the Maritimes!
How sweet, Im originally from Shelburne, I grew up around Halifax and other places, my family is mostly around Pugwash, my uncle and cousin have a fishing boat there. Hope you have a great day.
Ol bruce falls in the orange...passed away later that year of cancer he fished right til he couldnt no more. Captain is Christan small guy is mel francis also its a indigenous boat!
Sure looks like a lot of work. These guys must be exhausted by the end of the day. Sounds like a lot of money, how ever I bet the profit margin is slim, fuel, boat repairs & bait, on & on. Plus the guys need to get paid. Thank you great video!
They sure do work hard, I was exhausted just filming them all day! It's hard enough work just trying to stand on the boat as it's rolling, let alone actually working at the same time.
Been playing a game called Fishing: North Atlantic, and this boat is featured. It's really cool seeing the pots being set on video. Thanks for the upload.
I know I'm two years late, but I hope you made a follow up video showing how to eat the lobster. 🙂(Yes, there are plenty of such videos on the internet, but you can never have enough! Trust me, if you didn't grow up eating lobster, it is INCREDIBLY intimidating.)
I’m here because of the game Fishing: North Atlantic and learned a lot from that but wanted to see how it is really done. I live in New Zealand so far away but I did once live in Halifax many years ago the Maritimes are amazing
I want to work this fishing lovester someday.i have expirence fishing longline before but now i want to expirence lovester.i live from philipines.thak you sir for this vedio blog😊
There are different areas designated by license. He’s in LFA (lobster fishing area) 34 here, one of the biggest and most lucrative. If you have a 34 license, you can fish anywhere in 34. People do get protective of the places they have been fishing though, some have been fishing the same spots for years, after their fathers and father’s fathers.
You can fish anywhere you want within your zone/ district. This is a very large area so lots of places to fish. However, sometimes people will place their pots very close to yours (turf war kind of). This may lead to gear getting stuck together and less lobster (maybe) in each pot. In some areas of NS and NF there can be turf wars for sure.
I was wondering if this is an easy job to get into in Canada I’ve had fishing experience from back home in the U.K. 3-4 years at sea. Would love to do that
You think you'll be hiring next season or do you get the same people every year?? I want to know what's good and I'm looking into getting into crab fishing
Average catch is around 50k lb per season, every boat is different. Some with average 30-40,000, others closer or over 100,000. Licenses right now are selling for close to $1.5m for the enterprise.
It's a 6 month season starting end of Nov. There are no limits on the number or LBS of lobster you can catch, only on the number of traps you can fish with.
@@pers0n442 It's 6 months here and catch as much as you can! Everyone catches a different number each year, depends on how much you go out, how many times your pulling up, so big differences between boats. The big money is in the first few weeks.
Yes, and no. really hard work with risks. Pay isn't bad though and you can find other work in the off season. Exact pay ranges so much because it is based off catch. Generally you can expect to make 25-100k a year. If you own the boat then over 100k.
Hello.I`m looking for a job related to lobster`s fishing and i`m currently unemployed. Is it true do you people need more workers in order to correctly perform this job? and also. Do i need studies or certification to work in this area? greetings and i hope you have a wonderful week
@@propeller___ hello mate. I'm a Chilean citizen but i'm having a hard Time here. I need to migrate. Do you know someone who's able to hire an inmigrant? I'm still living in Chile although. Thanks for your reply and greetings
The gulf of Maine is not Nova Scotia! Off of Nova Scotia is the gulf of Maine 😊!! Typical American filming off of Nova Scotia! Just another American looking how lucrative it is in Yarmouth. Go home!!😅
Hi Jon Raimund, I was wondering if I can contact you through Facebook messenger or any other platform. I am doing research work to mitigate noise exposure on fishing vessels and I need to know about the fishing operation. I hope that you can give me a good guidance. If possible, please reply to my comment.
