Fishy Money Pt. 3: Deadliest Catch’s Jenny Gore Dwyer on the Decision to Buy a Third Boat and Working with the ALS Therapy Development Institute

Partners of Commercial Fishermen

Our chat with Jenny continues with so much heart. In this episode, we discuss her husband Pat and his diagnosis of ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), a rare degenerative disease also known as Lou Gherigs Disease. Jenny shares how ALS affected not only the family but also the fishing business, including financial management, and how the family came together to support each other during difficult times. Jenny also shares strategies for preparing for low or no seasons and the decision to expand their family's involvement in the fishing industry by adding a third boat to the fleet. She also gives us an update on her children and closing advice to all POCFs in our community. Let’s Dive In!
