I love the romanticism that comes with fishermen and their stories, I love watching shows like 'The Deadliest Catch'. The simple, functional weatherwear is an inspiration to Wet & Wendy. Weather Utility at it's best....If only I wasn't afraid of boats.
These photographs taken by Corey Arnold catch a personality you don't often see in imagery of the great sea-fairers.
COREY ARNOLD as described on his personal Bio, is a photographer and Alaskan commercial fisherman. From 2003-2010 he worked as a deckhand on the Bering Sea crabber f/v Rollo and more recently, runs a wild salmon gillnetting operation in Bristol Bay, Alaska. The off season is filled with travel, gallery exhibitions, magazine and ad photography assignments with a bit of backyard gardening, cat maintenance, and skateboarding in Portland, Oregon. He is currently working on a life long project entitled FISH-WORK which chronicles the commercial fishing lifestyle throughout the world. See Him Here.
