Tuna Wranglers

[OBXDIVEGUY]

Holy cow! Is anyone watching this show on Discovery?! I'd love to be one of those divers!

Neat show, I really enjoyed it.

Here's my tuna story. Please excuse the slight disconnect between the two parts, I wrote and posted the last part first.

Yep, that was cool. Can't really say I'd want to do it though. The whole shark wrestling thing kind of turns me off......

Did someone say "Shark Wrangler" ?

It was a cool show. MILLIONS of dollars. Looks a bit like a take off on the Crab Pod show, now one about lobsters, and tuna. Regardless, guess it's a good thing that somebody is doing the job--I like my seafood!

$10,000 each.

EACH.

I am so in the wrong business.

I just saw it for the first time last night....it was cool watching that guy cut the shark out of the net. I'd love to have a go at it....

that would be totally sweet! Definitely a good way to fund the diving habit.

although i still have issues with the way much of the commercial fishing is conducted, and here we are still working away at consuming the last 10% of the large fish population...

here's a short article about the problems (i couldn't find the more recent one though)
