If I am an employed lobster fisherman and not the business owner, how do I file my taxes correctly? I have gone though multiple times and keep getting errors at the end.

As per our TurboTax article: Fishing Income and Business, you would only use the T2121 Statement of Fishing Activities to report Fishing income when you are working as either a self-employed fisherman or as a part of a fishing partnership, and not when you are employed by a fishing company. In your case, you are not the owner but an employee, therefore, you would submit your income tax return as a regular taxpayer, and not as a self-employed person. Hence, you only need to enter the T4 slip given to you by your employer.
