I never complain about the price of crab in restaurants. If anything, after seeing what these guys go through, I think it should cost even more!

I thought it was interesting that most of the crab caught by the Deadliest Catch guys actually gets shipped to Japan. Allot of the crab sold in stores in the US is actually from China or Russia.

My husband and I have been watching this show ever since it started. Anyone else noticed that it seems like the Hillstrands are a nice group and really seem to try and have fun with one another? They seem to smile and laugh a lot more than other crews.

There's nothing like having your family on board, right?

The Hillstrands, the Harris boys on the Cornelia Marie...even Edgar and Sig on the Northwestern. But you're right, when you compare the Hillstrands to the other families, they just don't yell at each other too much.

It was neat to see that one After the Catch episode and the captains talked about what they do when they're not fishing. Andy raising horses didn't seem too out there as Phil and his building bird feeders!

Andy's farm is somewhere outside of Evansville, Indiana and I guess he has become a minor celebrity when he is around. My father-in-law, who never gets excited for anything, claims to have seen him at Tractor Supply (or maybe it was Farm & Fleet) and was almost giddy retelling the story.http://www.hobbyhorseacres.net/home/
Here's the link to his horse farm. I want to have my birthday party there!

The most popular crab in the Pac NW is Dungeness Crab, which is off of the Pac NW/Canadian/Alaskan coast, so we're lucky (although I don't like crab).

Sig Hansen is the grand marshal of this year's Seafair Torchlight Parade in Seattle.
