To begin with, the boy entered commercial fishing vessels being just three years old. At the age of seven he joined the fishing vessel alongside his father, John Sr., and at the age of 17, Jonathan became a professional fisherman working full time. His brothers Andy Hillstrand and Neal Hillstrand are also fishermen.

Hillstrand became well known as a reality television star in the television program “Deadliest Catch”, aired since 2005 – there are already 12 seasons aired on both American and Dutch television, and season 13 was launched in early 2017 on American television. In the program, a number of fishing boats are followed during the crab-fishing season in the Bering Sea; all fishing boats are stationed in Dutch Harbor in Alaska, USA. Every eight to ten boats at a time follow the dangerous crab season, so the dangers that fishermen are exposed to also fall to the camera crew from Discovery Channel. Each episode shows a history of one or more boats. “Deadliest Catch” was nominated for four Emmy Awards for the television season of 2007, with one of the nominations being for that of the Best Non-fiction Program, although none of the nominations was converted into a victory.

Due to the popularity of the television show “Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm”, a life simulation game for Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows Northwestern Games, Liquid Dragon and Green Wave Games were released in 2008. The game allows you to be, for example Sig Hansen, Jonathan Hillstrand, Phil Harris or Larry Hendricks, and while running the ship you are looking for the red gold of the Bering Sea. The gamer is able to choose one of the five authentic crab boats, including the Northwestern and Cornelia Marie, or make their own boat. One has to yard and lead his own crew, choose from 20 real crab fishermen and give each crew member a task (Deck Boss, Engineer, Medic, Cook and Bait Boy).

To conclude, all the previously mentioned engagements have added sums to the total size of Jonathan Hillstrand’s net worth as well as his popularity.

Finally, in the personal life of Jonathan Hillstrand, he is apparently still single, although rumoured as ‘dating’ – he doesn’t reveal much about his personal life, although it is known that he has a son named Scott.
