Episode Five – Short Fuses

dc_logo_black-560pxEPISODE FIVE — Tuesday, May 12 at 9 PM (ET/PT)
Crab pots continue to come up empty and the skippers are out of ideas. Low bait and long grinds take our crews to dark places — the smallest infractions from a Greenhorn or fellow Deckhand cause tempers and even violence to flare. Aboard the Cornelia Marie the brothers Harris have a war of words. On the Wizard, low bait forces Keith to turn his back on his brother and reach out to an old enemy: Sig Hansen. While the rest of the fleet fight it out amongst themselves — it’s a wild, swinging pot that could do fatal damage on the Time Bandit.

Episode Two – Red Skies in the Morning

 EPISODE TWO — Tuesday, April 21 at 9 PM (ET/PT)

The boats have encountered low crab numbers creating even more tension among the crew. When the fleet wakes up to ominous red dawn skies, the captains speculate that a severe storm is on the way. But with crab quota to catch, the boats keep fishing. The Time Bandit hits pay dirt, while the Cornelia Marie strikes out. When 20-foot seas and high winds kick up — even the bravest skippers call in their men to wait out the storm. One boat, with 11 souls on board, sends out a Mayday. In an all too familiar scene, the Coast Guard launches rescue helicopters, and the skippers stay glued to their radios — anxiously awaiting news of the fate of their fellow fishermen.
