Nice going. I just bet you have had people come on board you wish they had not


I used to have a charter fishing business up in Manistee Michigan

Not a charter Gare....privately owned boat. Very large wealthy family. I've worked for them for 17 years on a variety of different boats. I do freelance work on the charter boats also. They are very flexible with me, and I often double dip by freelance fishing when we are not busy. I have worked on fishing boats since I was 15. It's a complete lifestyle for me !! The motto is....."i love fishing, fishing is my life" I wouldn't change a thing....I love what I do so much !!
 

Very nice. My view every day is 4 walls with no windows. Secure facility where you have to go through metal detectors and your stuff through x-ray machine every day when you enter and exit. Been doing it for 20 years and I don't know how much more of it I can take. It's one of those jobs where you day dream about walking out and never going back. Ugh.

Sounds like you need a break to go fishing !! I have not achieved any type of millionaire status....but....I have found happiness in my work. It pays well enough, and I'm as stress free as anyone can be. It gets a little stressful if were in a slump and not catching any fish....but that never lasts long, and we always know the fish will bite sooner or later.

I agree...someone has to do that work also. But doing what you love is as glorious as life can be !!
 

Great videos Bart and you are the envy of every fisherman! Love your office! Tight lines...
 

I had a charter fishing business out of Manistee. I was having carburetor issues on one of my engines. I was going to run up to Arcadia and get it fixed. The lake was flat no wind. 3/4 of the way up there at squall came on. Winds up to
80 MPH People were all over the marine radio screaming for help. I can still remember one lady screaming we are off of North Port sinking and going to die. There was nothing I could do :( To this day I take my hat off to the Coast Guard. People do not understand just what those sailors go through. I think 7 people died in that storm
so sad when you can not help
