- ollybee 7y agoThis article gives some context https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/sep/12/ship-of-horrors-deep-sea-fishing-oyang-70-new-zealand https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/sep/12/ship-of-horror...
- Stratoscope 7y agoThat is a tragic story, but it has nothing to do with this submission.
- 9nGQluzmnq3M 7y agoThe context is that live streaming should prevent abuse of this sort.
- choward 7y agoThat isn't context unless this video stream is a direct result of that story.
- 9nGQluzmnq3M 7y agoBut it is, no? Why livestream a fishing boat if people weren't concerned about working conditions on them?
- mkl 7y agoBecause it's interesting to watch.
- snapit 7y agoHeading out to fish now..
- jpollock 7y agoNot the work conditions, it's about quota and by-catch management. The government is rolling out mandatory cameras in areas inhabited by a critically endangered dolphin.
- sneeble 7y agoActually it’s about fishing practices; how fish is caught, handled and processed. It could be used for quota management, health and safety, and to see what happens with bycatch (very interesting cod end here). In reality shows how hard working these people are and how dedicated they are to their industry.
- snapit 7y agoThis link is helpful too. https://amp-tvnz-co-nz.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/amp.tvnz.co.nz/news/story/JTJGY29udGVudCUyRnR2bnolMkZvbmVuZXdzJTJGc3RvcnklMkYyMDE5JTJGMTElMkYyOSUyRmhhd2tlcy1iYXktY29tbWVyY2lhbC1maXNoZXJtYW4taW5zdGFsbHMtbGl2ZS1jYW0tb24tYm9hdC10by1lZHU= https://amp-tvnz-co-nz.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/amp.tvnz.co.nz...

Edit: I'm not blaming you, I know how annoying it is to get back to a "regular" URL, especially while being on mobile.
- Waterluvian 7y agoHeh. I was skeptical but yep, loads almost exactly as fast on my phone.
- FussyZeus 7y agoThat feeling when the URL is as long as the article
- snapit 7y agoSorry, everyone - Karl is not fishing right now. I'll submit again when we are out on the vessel tomorrow and you can watch him do a haul.
- edm0nd 7y agoWhat did the fish say when he posted bail? "I'm off the hook!" sorry, it's almost 4 am and I had to drop a fish joke in here.
- Aardwolf 7y agoNot much happening, but at least I get to see sun and daylight in late spring live from where I am, where it is dark, night and almost winter :)
- Taniwha 7y agoIt's Sunday in NZ - try again tomorrow
- masonic 7y agoThe ocean is closed on Sundays?
- chadcmulligan 7y agoHere you go - a local beach - its always sunny, all..the..time https://www.coastalwatch.com/surf-cams-surf-reports/qld/coolum https://www.coastalwatch.com/surf-cams-surf-reports/qld/cool...
- girvo 7y agoNice choice of beach! I would’ve also accepted Rainbow Bay ;)
- WilliamEdward 7y agoWhy not just use twitch.tv for something like this? I'd be much more likely to watch if i could follow there.
- k_sze 7y agoI’d love the idea of “Twitch goes fishing”, where viewers vote to control the boat (heading, speed, the crane, etc). “Oh look! There’s a storm coming from the East!” Captain and seamen onboard panic as they watch the Twitch input stream.
