how's the fishing?

I want to know if they catch any fish off the side of the Healy?
If so what kind?

Hi Zack,

There has been no fishing off the side of the Healy so far on this
cruise. Remember, we are surrounded by ice floes. As we are moving, we
are breaking through the ice. A big part of "ice breaking" is really
ice rearranging. Much of the ice is pushed to the sides making it very
difficult to fish from there. Also, when we are on station and "not
moving" there are science operations occurring on both sides of the
ship, so no fishing then either.
