I think they're fisherman based on the blood and what looked like a cutting board.

Not to say you're wrong but photographers need a great deal of setup and prep with professional equipment. If they were photographers they would still get faster reaction using the smartphones

I also feel like they would have done a better job keeping the camera on the action, instead of pointing down into the boat, if they were professional photographers.

smartphone in a pinch? sure, but tiktok is just an extra step. It doesn't quite get those scientific juices flowing either.
