The common bond of this group is a shared sense of responsibliity to protect every Rhode Island fishery and every harvester.Endless hours are spent working with lawmakers and academia to counter attempts made by both state and federal agencies to consolidate or create fishery policies to eliminate licensed fishermen.Career Opportunites
Posted: December 4, 2015
Located in Point Judith Rhode Island, The Town Dock is looking to expand our fleet of commercial fishing vessels and we are seeking motivated and dependable self-employed Captains, Mates, and Crewmembers to meet the high demand for fresh seafood. These are year-round trip vessels that fish anywhere from Virginia to the Canadian line fishing for squid, scup, herring, fluke, whiting, and groundfish. Experience is helpful but not necessary. If you are interested, please send a resume and contact information to fishingjobs@towndock.com. Items of Interest
