If I took fuel/bait/burly on that 40 bucks a kilo(fillet weight?) I would definitely be WAY ahead....well if I kept it that is, but if you added in purchase cost of boat and maintenance things dont look so flash but in theory I would be paying off my snapper boat, my flounder boat would probably have already payed for itself.
In practice of course things dont work like that as there is only so much fish you can eat. It is illegal to sell fish without holding quota and both boats run at a loss.
Thats ok I like fishing,I like eating fish and I like giving fish away.
