American fishermen say the number may be three times higher.

If so, why did not the fishermen say as much?

Local fishermen say they plan to fight to continue to fish on the ice.

"They will need arms to protect us if things become bad again," a fisherman said.

Fishermen said they support the idea of conservation, but want to be able to keep enough fish to stay in business.

But commercial fishermen say the plan does little more than further restrict their industry.

The fishermen say the aid is not enough to feed their families.

It might have been, but fishermen who rescued them said they hadn't heard a sound.

The fishermen said they never lost faith in being rescued.

But some fisherman say they do not want the limit reduced.
