Is or has anyone here worked as a fisheries observer? I received a degree in Fisheries Science and it seems like an ok /out/ job. What was it like, how was the pay, are there long term prospects or employment elsewhere or is it just a job to pad the resume. It seems that people do it for a while before it gets tiring. I would be working in the North Pacific.

I worked on a weir on the Copper river in Alaska monitoring salmon. It was an unpaid internship for my F&W degree. It was awesome, apart from water sample collections I basically just fished all day
Good luck getting on of those jobs as they are all reserved for injuns if they are paid positions. You might be able to just volunteer your time

If you don't report favorably towards the fishing industry, the fishermen will kill you

No, it's not a problem at all. Where did you get your degree in fisheries science? In the mail?
