The article doesn't really differientiate, but I wonder if this is the fisherman who are fishing every day - day in and day out - like shrimp fisherman or if they are averaging out the salaries of the Alaskan King Crab fisherman who are making that much money (or more) for a weeks time (ala 'The Deadliest Catch' fame) or however long a certain season lasts. In any case - $28k a year sure sounds low!
