RE: In your opinion, when is the right time to retire?

It sounds like fishing has become as difficult as farming with the increased regulations and tight margins, maybe even more difficult. It would be hard to give up something you've done for so many years. I can't imagine all of the knowledge you've acquired in all those years of doing it. It seems like that knowledge would be very valuable to those people who are carrying on the tradition. Maybe teaching or doing an Airbnb experience to take tourists out for the day might be an option down the road when you decide to slow down? This was a great read. Thanks for your contribution!

There are many regulations you have to go by to have people on your boat, not to mention having a fancy-looking boat to take them on. It comes down to you have to have money to make money taking people fishing. This is my boat it is only 16 feet, not big enough to carry people on.
