    I once did an Alaska herring season as an observer in the back of a Supercub. My job was to prevent crashing with another airplane. Our nightly procedure was to land on the water and use the rigging of one of our boats to set the airplane on the deck of the boat, secure it, then eat and sleep inside the boat. One night in Togiak many of the boats had anchored behind a spit with the wind coming over the spit. The botas were 100 to 200 feet from the beach but conditions were very much like this video. From the beach to the boat the waves built to 3 to 4 feet obviously very choppy. We had to land on the water, approach the boat, shut off the engine, climb out onto the pontoon and try to catch a line from the boat. The wind would push us away and we would try again. We tried for over an hour again and again the wind was too much. We decided to fly 5 minutes to another area behind an island and try another boat. The weather coming off the Bearing sea interacting with the island created a water spout that we nearly flew straight into. Conditions were worse with waves coming from different directions around the island from open sea. Our very survival literally depended on catching this line from the boat as there was no where else to go. We flew back to the first spot and obviously did finally catch the line. I remember standing on that pontoon, spray every where, soaked to the gills, freezing and fighting to stay aboard thinking (if you don't make this happen you are going to die).
    Almost every day we fueled the plane at sea 4 times and flew 16 hours at Prince William sound, then Cook inlet, then Kodiak, then Togiak for roughly 35 days total. In the end someone else got the big haul and I made $650.00 for the whole deal. LOL That's why they call it fishing and not catching.
    I just googled Togiak and apparently there is an airport 10 mi. from where I am referring. I don't know if that airport was there 25 years ago but if it was we sure did not know about it, and we has no wheels anyway. But you can see the spit I'm referring to coming of of Hagermeister Island and the other spot was behind High island.
