Alaskans in the commercial set-net salmon fisheries do a lot more than fish. Besides spending the better part of the day, and frequently the night, on the fishing grounds picking salmon out of their nets, they also periodically have to shake the long net free of seaweed, or mend their nets, or hang their nets with new floats or sinkers. They snatch a few hours sleep when they can.
And, oh yes, my friend shown in this image also prepares three meals a day for the family and makes an effort to keep their one-room fishing cabin in some semblance of order. Do they enjoy this busy and exhausting summer life style? ...YES!!!
