The fishermen work more or less like arceologists. With small brushes, hammer and chisel, they harvest the shrimps.:)
No you are wrong. I guess you used wiki as your source. In Scandinavia then the fjords are frozen during winter time. Shrimps are trapped in the the ice. By cutting the ice the shrimps can be harvested. Here is picture from a typical scandinavian family harvesting shrimps on the fjord

No.
I also live in Canada. Winter started in December and ended in April so it was only 4 months long.
Of course if you live near the North Pole where nobody lives then it is winter for half the year or longer.
snow fall warning issued for this evening, predicting up to 20cm. -20 in Nov. is now stranger to us.

We went for paintball today. It rained. Just enough to drive us out of the field and then it shone again. Bummer.

It felt kinda nice to sweat and strive while the rain falls on your shoulders.

I'm a fisherman. I love boating and bass-fishing, mainly. I also enjoy water-tubing and -skiing (as spotter only :p).
Other than that, it's all electronics :D

I enjoy hunting & fishing.

It allows me to appreciate the outdoors in all its beauty. The solitude and wildlife are an invaluable experience.

Alot of people have misconceptions about hunting.

For me the beauty is not in the kill, but in the emotions and challenges it brings forth.

Being out in the woods alone gives me a profound sense of peace.

Well, I will be gone in new mexico till the 15th or so, so when you don't hear from me, that's why.
If you do hear from me before then and I'm trying to make a knife etcher with a rectifier and a transformer, it's not really me, so don't get confused.

Yes, It's about 45 min drive with the car, and then we're at the boat. So now I'm packing the car with pillows, knives, forks, spoons, ropes, propane, gardenhose, the sails, and buckets and soap. There's a bit washing and cleaning after one winter under the plastic cover.
