fish Re: Tuna spotting in Guam

Had a few guys join us over the years from Tuna spotting. Most of them were great pilots and loved the money they made on the boats.

I rembember most of them saying around the $7000 USD per month tax free.
Was told that this money is no longer the going rate as KIWI's are now doing it for around $4500 USD a month.
Looks like the channel jumbers screwed another good thing for the Helicopter indstury. Same thing in PNG where Pacific payed well now pay peanuts.
