Synopsis
Documentary about the hazards of commercial fishing and those affected by it. The program reveals that disaster at sea is not just a matter of small boats caught in terrible storms. Economy, ecology, weather and human error all play tragic parts. Every day is a struggle to earn a livelihood in the face of mounting economic pressure and government regulations. As fishing stocks are depleted, fishermen take great risks in order to make a living. As a result, commercial fishing is now considered one of America's most dangerous professions.
