EP 34 Captain Wes Swimelar- When I Walked up Into the Fore-peak the water was to my Chest!

from Galley Stories® · host Mark Caylor

Captain Wes is one of those Old Salty Dogs who actually never got old, Still vibrant and commanding and a smile for everyone. As you can immagine with 41 years of Crab Fishing he has some stories to tell. Starting back in the late 60's up until 2017, of course retirement for this guy just means fishing Bristol Bay in the Summers in the last of the Frontline Combat Fisheries. Really Enjoyed this one, but Wes is always a fun guy to talk to if you can pin him down. Enjoy!
