From Jimmy T-
Dear Friends and Family,
I have been blessed with the opportunity of a lifetime! My video, titled “Gloucester Fisherman” because I am so very proud of my community and maritime heritage, has been selected to the Final 10 of the “Survivor” Casting Call Contest! Whichever video of the final 10 receives the most votes, that person will likely be a castaway in season 21/22 of “Survivor”!!!
Now it’s up to you! My ONLY chance is for you to click on the link below, vote for me, and take a moment to forward this e-mail to as many friends, as far reaching as possible.
Five minute of your time could change the lives of my family!!!

Busty Brancleone’s Right Hand
There are books written about people that make themselves out to be hard core fishermen but really they use fishing as an excuse to bum around the wharf and docks but don’t put the time in.
See this hand?
The man that this hand belongs to is the kind of guy a book about a real fisherman should be written about. A man that could tell countless stories about fishing in real weather in ridiculous conditions.
It’s too bad that armchair fishermen get the glory when the guys that deserve the glory never get mentioned.
Guys like Busty Brancleone. The real deal.

“It’s a hard night’s work”- Boston Globe Article
“ By Steven Rosenberg
Globe Staff / August 10, 2008
(Editor’s note: Globe reporter Steven Rosenberg recently joined Mark Carroll for a night of fishing off Gloucester.)
GLOUCESTER – Mark Carroll can’t explain why he’s still fishing. He can’t put into words how he fell in love with a profession that has put his life in danger too many times at sea, claimed a lot of his bank account, and his marriage.”

Steve Repairing The Net After Making Damage
Stevie Mending The Net Aboard The Lady Jane
Here is Stevie mending the net after “making damage”. “Making damage” is a term used when the net goes over some hard bottom on the oceans floor and it tears the net.
I wonder when the last of these old timers are gone if we will lose those terms. Ringo, Stevie and Russell are all over 60 years old.

Clark Sandler Aboard The Sea Farmer II
Clark was telling me how he does all the maintenance on his boat saving tens of thousands of dollars a year in painting costs alone. He painted the entire hull of the boat himself. That’s some work boy.
