Our guest Phillips Hayman is an HONEST mechanic that I myself use! He can be reached at: (208) 421-0895.
There's a mystique surrounding crabbers and fishermen risking it all in some of the most dangerous environments on earth to reel in a good catch. From fishing for Salmon in far north-coastal Alaska, to crabbing for kings in the Bering Sea, you need to be tough to hack it! London and Mark recently sat down with mechanic, fisherman and crabber Phillips Hayman to talk about life lived on the edge of civilization where big personalities compete for fish and too much sleep is the enemy, an impediment to serious money. We talk about the use of cocaine to stay awake during the fierce derby days of the 1980s, to running drugs on crabbing and fishing vessels to make a little extra scratch. Phillips tells some illuminating truths about the real Deadliest Catch stars and much more! The next time you enjoy a plate of seafood or a few crab legs, just remember some tired SOB busted their asses to get it there!
