A certain 'Pierre Loti' wrote 'pêcheur d'islande' which means fisherman of iceland.
Fish! They were arguing over fishing quotas. At the time, British trawlers found their best catches in the seas around Iceland. Normal territorial waters extend to 12 miles offshore but Iceland claimed that it's territorial waters extended to 200 miles offshore which resulted in a stand-off with the British fishermen. Iceland sent armed tug boats to enforce their ban and Britain retaliated by sending Naval Fishery Protection Vessels to defend the fishermen. It was in 1975 and known as the Cod Wars and must be the only war in history where nobody got killed.

Fishermen may use specialized vocabulary related to fishing techniques, tools, and marine life that are specific to their profession. They may also have unique accents or speech patterns based on their regional location or cultural background. However, there is no single universal "dialect of fishermen"; it can vary widely depending on the community and context.
There are no commercial fishermen in Antarctica.
Song of the Fishermen was created in 1934.
