They were paid 18 cents a pound and didn't have to do any processing just drive up and dump them off. When u put a figure on that its pretty good money, about $45k in 3 days. He said it wasn't that hard to catch them just trap them in an area and circle them with the nets then rev up the motor and run them into the nets. Don't know about yall but from what I've seen at ky lake a man could get rich like that. Now if govt starts subsidizing this the incentives go up. IMO we need more processing plants in areas accessible to ky and barkeley, commercial fishermen and these guys would all be doing good business
How did they get these fish to Wickliffe?
