Alaskan Fisherman Earn $500,000 In An Hour


It's common knowledge that fisherman can earn a fortune but giant haul made by a group of Alaskan fishing boats last week surprised fishermen, regulators and seafood processors alike.

In just one afternoon, 8 to 10 boats hauled 10,000 tons of sac roe herring and at $550 a ton it works out at around $5.5 million dollars. That's $500,000 per boat!
