## Caption

Photo by Corey Arnold arni_coraldo | A lone buoy bobs on 20-foot (6 m) swells in the Bering Sea waters of Alaska. The buoy is anchored to an 800-pound (350 kg) crab pot resting on the sea floor. On a good day in January, a single pot can fetch 200 to 500 legal Opilio (snow) crab for a commercial fisherman. For some, this bounty is worth the risk of fishing through the all too common Bering Sea storms. Follow arni_coraldo for more life at sea. #crabbing #wave #beringsea
