Crab fish, too cold to be an Ice Roader. -40 and the one driver was worried about his toes freezing inside his truck along with his windows icing on the inside. Crab fishing looks to only get down around +10. :lol:

Crab fish, they make a nice wad of cash for being out there for 8-10 days, plus even if something bad happened you would have someone watching your back. Hearing that ice cracking underneath the wheels would be unnerving to me and if something goes badly wrong on the ice road, your going it alone.

Myself, whenever I was driving on the lakes, I'd be in a cold-weather survival suit with the door open and standing on the fuel tank. The first time I heard a crack, I'd jump and catch the next flight south - wayyyyyyyyy south.

Neither one for me. Only way you would catch me working on a fishing boat is as a cook, and as far as the ice road bit goes. Forget it. I like jobs with a certain amount of safety built into them.
