Everybody knows that fishing is Therapy!

Interesting

He is kind of a jerk. Must not be too bright either if what they are claiming is true about cheating on disability social security and being on a national TV show that shows the opposite. That stuff ticks me off as I was forced onto disability because of my body being worn out. I would love to be able to do the things Herbert does. I sure would not have gone on disability.

There is another show about some weird acting family, Bush People or something like that, who have been caught cheating on the Alaskan resident bonus money but they keep the show on. I watched part of one episode of that one and that was all I could stand of stupid.

Just the tip of the iceberg, go get him boys!

hope they have their facts right putting that article out there, there is a trial period to go back to work while maintaining some benefits, i think its about 9 months which looks to be the time frame they are looking at. they dont make ssdi easy to get on with bad feet, took my brother almost 2 years and lawyers to get on it after getting hit head on by a guy driving 130 mph.

Sure, he could sue for slander, quit the boat, and still get the checks.

Love Alaskan Bush People.
Donna and I watch it all the time.

The tuna show however bored the crap outta me
I gave it a shot and watched it twice.
Too much staged drama.

Just goes to show you how someone's favorite steakhouse can be terrible to someone else.

My sentiments.

99.99% of reality shows are so far from reality it is pathetic.

I still have never figured out what the fascination is with the Kartrashians.

If you do enough drugs, they are all great shows!!!

I rarely watch Wicked Tuna anymore. I got so about the only one I cared to watch was Dave Marciano the bald guy. I know he's somewhat in it for the show, but I also think he's really about fishing for a living and not the glamour like some of those other pukes are. Paul was a looney tune and it doesn't surprise me that he got busted but I was really hoping it was Dave from Tuna.com when I read this. I absolutely can't stand to watch that self centered, mouthy prick!
