Music by "Aurosonic & Stine Grove" noted on 6925 USB, very nice S8+ signal.

"Bahstahds" (northeast USA accented English) noted this morning on 6282 KHz USB, casual conversation about a new fiber optic cable being laid across one of their fishing grounds, and miscellaneous stuff about fishing. Terminated at about 1330 UTC "to go get them up" (the crew?). This frequency has had similar USA fishermen ops in the past.
