The HFU nickname for a group of entertaining New England fishermen who frequent various parts of the HF spectrum, including legal HF SSB marine frequencies, the 6765 kHz to 7000 kHz "43 meter band", the 49 meter broadcast band, etc., complaining about both their fishing work as well as family life. These fishing fleet radio comms can be heard on numerous frequencies, with many conversations beginning with somebody whistling into the mic. Communications are voice (radiotelephone), using USB mode (as is the norm of SSB marine).

They're a subclass of Pescadores also known as Peskies, the HFU term for fishermen and other outbanders often heard on the HF spectrum.

This QSL is not actually from them, but was sent by another listener as a joke, and is still much appreciated:
