I’m looking for a boat to get on for the ‘22 season, preferably one I can look at staying on for a few years as I’m looking to fish for a career and captain my own boat one day.
I have one year of experience in the Bay, I’m a hard worker, intelligent, and good with technology.

Greetings, I'm hoping to get on a boat for this coming season. I don't have any direct experience fishing commercially. however, my cousin was a commercial gillnetter on Lake Michigan and always told me about when he fished in Alaska. I'd love to spend a season fishing in his memory.
I may lack experience but I am certain that I can make up for it with my hard work and determination.

I'm looking to get on a boat for the 2022 gill netting season. I don't have any commercial fishing experience. I'm not afraid of physical labor as my current job requires me to work with my hands and move heavy objects all day. I've heard a lot about fishing in Alaska from serval friends that have worked the gill netting seasons in the past.

I am looking to be a greenhorn on a bay boat in the 2022 season. I live in a community where 50% of the people are Bristol Bay fisherman and I’ve grown around that lifestyle for so long I want to get my hands dirty. For what I lack in experience I make up for in drive, hard work and competitive motivation. All my house mates and past house mates have fished for years in the bay, one had captained his own boat and I am eager to get out there for my own season. I am also open to working as a cook for a captain on their boat as well. Feel free to reach out to me via email egmhertberg@gmail.com for more information.

**Looking for a position as a crew member/deck hand for the 2022 season**

New to the Bellingham area and looking for a meaningful summer job. I have a ton of professional experience in the backcountry, medical training and a big background in completing arduous work. I have a degree in biology and experience gill netting which will come in handy.

Just as important, I have a great sense of humor and common sense. I can get down with the long hours because this work is meaningful and the area and fish are something special.

Please reach out, I'd love to have a more thorough conversation about this seasons expectations.

Hi Y’all,

I would like to find a gillnetting boat to join this summer season. I’m 23 and want to work hard for some good money.

I am familiar with boating basics from owning a small recreational fishing/crabing boat off the Assawoman Bay as well as many experiences with larger boats from deep sea fishing in Costa Rica and Rockfishing the Chesapeake.

I lack commercial fishing expereince but I do have applicable skills…

- Worked with heavy machinery on the Graveyard Gondola Shift at Sugarbowl Ski Mountain, Truckee CA
- Gained additional night shift experience and ability to work at odd hours while running the Night Audit at the Peaks Hotel, Telluride CO
- Developed fulfillment efficiency completing orders at an industrial printing warehouse, CSI Solutions, MD

I am baseline willing to work long hours, handle many jobs, keep moral high, and tackle whatever is needed of me. I can clean, cook, lift heavy loads, and will be devoted to the boat until the last dock of the season.

Feel free to call/text or pass my info along. 571-249-6950
I am happy to hop on the phone to discuss.

Cheers,
Nick

Hello, my name is Fillip Slutsky and I am looking to work on my first fishing boat this 2022 summer. I do not have any prior experience on a fishing boat but do have a decent amount of experience just fishing my local lakes and rivers for trout, salmon, bass, etc... I am very excited about working on a fishing boat and learning tons of new skills related to it. I heard about the fishing boats last year from a friend and became very interested. This year I made a friend from Alaska that told me much more information about how it works and how to get into it. I will be turning 19 years old this April and am looking for a job to both learn more about the fishing industry and also experience a totally new thing than what I am used to working in the summer. The last couple summers I have worked in a bike/ski shop which was really great but I am ready to try something new. Some of my favorite hobbies also include fishing, climbing, mountain biking, skiing, camping, and hiking. I know that this makes things a little more complicated but I am only free starting July and would preferably want to have some free time left over after the fishing season before school starts in mid September.

Hi My name is Kevin. I am looking to be a deckhand for the 2022 Bristol Bay season. Experience wise, I am still pretty green but I've done a Bristol Bay season in 2018, seined in Kodiak for 2012, and set netted in 2009. Other fish related experience is that I've worked on as a fisheries technician for salmon hatcheries on Afognak Island and Juneau (where I'm currently at the moment) for the last 4 years.

I am used to working long hours and love working outside. I am still learning and wanting to grow from this industry. For the most part I just want that Alaskan adventure and which is why I want to do commercial fishing again. I do not have any drug, alcohol, or drama issues. I have my own gear and I can buy my own commercial fishing license.

I can be reached by email - kevin.dichoso.viado@gmail.com and by phone 4154074250 (in case if I don't answer just leave me a voicemail or text). Thank you!

My name is Jared, I am a total greenhorn looking to get involved into fishing in Bristol Bay. I met some fisherman in Texas who had done commercial fishing in Alaska and was totally captivated by it. I am willing to do anything to be of help in a crew. I have experience doing commercial roofing and manual labor. I am a fast learner, hardworking and don't complain when things get tough. This is something I truly want to do and see it as an important experience.

Looking for work as a deckhand for the 2022 Bristol Bay season. Planned on gill netting with my cousin off Kodiak this summer but he can't operate his site this year so here I am. I'm a mechanical engineer by trade and routinely work in a machine shop and operate heavy machinery. I have experience sport crabbing in Puget Sound and the San Francisco Bay. Have done a lot of landscaping work, very comfortable with physical labor and long hours. I don't get seasick. Here for something different and excited about the experience. Give me a call:

I will be 62 years old on May 4, and I am physically fit and able for this coming season.

I started commercial fishing on the age 14 in the skiff as the deckhand, and manage the whole season working on the nets for operational status , and picking fish.

If you are really looking for a hard core deckhand, I am that person, if not don't bother to send me an email message.

Thank You,

I'm late to the party but if anybody needs a experienced crew member I'm ready to go. I fished 3 season in SE Alaska on a seiner with 1 season being the deck boss/engineer. Spent 3 seasons crabbing Puget sound. Owned my own crab boat for a short period and crabbed a partial season on the Washington coast for a fill in. Not scared of hard work. I've been out of fishery for a couple years do to family issues but ready for another go at it. I'm 38 don't drink don't do drugs and can be on a boat for months at a time. Can leave at any time.

Hello, I am searching for a job as a deckhand or anything to do with fishing in general at the moment. I do not have a lot of experience but I learn quickly and am most certainly capable of doing anything required of me.
