Original subtitles

Coming over.

Look how big that thing is. Look.

That's crazy, dude.

The storm is as big as Russia.

Sixty-plus knots.

And the seas are gonna come up fast,

like 30, 40 feet.

And then it's gonna get us...

It'll be right on top of us.

God help anybody who gets stuck in that one.

Look out!

Son of a bitch!

What is that?

I don't know.

It was a big one.

Get out of the way.

Watch out!

Anchor up, now.

Watch out!

- No, no, no, no. - Watch out.

Man!

No!

Shut the up and listen.

You are not about to treat me like.

That's a big one.

If you're out here, it got you.

Russian Kamchatka is going to get you.

Two hundred and eighty miles northeast of Dutch Harbor...

That looks like it's coming from Russia.

40 to 50-knot winds.

- And 15-foot seas. - And 15-foot seas.

On the Northwestern...

But good news is,

it's blowing southernly.

So the island will protect us.

It'll shelter us from those winds.

So we might be all right.

We'll figure it out.

Let's just get through the gear.

Born 800 miles northwest

of the Bering Sea's Pribilof Islands,

on Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula.

A low-pressure system sweeps southeast,

projected to hit the golden, bairdi

and black cod grounds.

First one!

This Kamchatka storm is coming through hard and heavy,

but I think that there's still some fishing here.

We do have to make a delivery.

If we can find something,

a strip,

and you can get in some 30, 40s or better,

it'll add up real fast.

Yeah.

Captain Sig Hansen

alongside co-captain and daughter, Mandy,

returns to 120 pots

set in a 64-fathom trench

on the northern bairdi grounds.

Now what? Come on now.

Whoo!

Now that's...

It's just warming up.

We wanna see, twice that.

Come on, baby.

Come on now.

Coming now!

It worked!

Ho!

Yeah!

That's getting a little better.

It's picking up.

Twenty-four!

There's a little pile in here somewhere.

It's not spotty.

- Yeah, it's spotty. - A little bit everywhere.

It's spotty.

Whoa!

Look at that whale!

Woo-hoo! Whoa!

- Do you see that? - Yeah.

- What was it? - Orca.

That is huge.

Yeah.

Giant orca just right by the rack.

Look, there he is.

That is beautiful.

I've never seen one that close.

I'm gonna kill her.

That's a good size whale, man.

That's the closest I've ever seen one.

Right there, right there.

There he is.

- Yeah. - Whoo!

Look at him go.

He is watching all the black cod come up in the pot.

My God.

- Look at him. - There he is.

I'm gonna take it as good luck.

I mean, that just made my childhood dream come true.

I know.

So these are big, yeah?

Now we gotta stick around here.

There's a sign of life.

Don't... don't run from that yet.

Set it back. Set it back.

Going over.

We'll let 'em soak and see what happens.

It fails, it's on you.

Eighty-five miles southwest,

just outside the Kamchatka Front...

Let's go crabbing!

Let's go and grab it.

He is in his underwear.

On the table.

- Look. - Let's go and grab it.

Let's go crabbing!

I think Brandon might be losing it.

O n the Aleutian Lady...

Brandon has lost his mind.

We're not catching any crab.

All right, guys.

We gotta go set this stuff now.

This storm is about to barrel in on us, so...

Let's rock and roll.

Roger.

All right, there we go.

Pot going over.

We got two sets.

We're gonna set a 26-potter

over here in the shallows

and a 25-potter out here in the deep,

and we'll find out.

With 43,000 pounds of eastern bairdi crab still to catch...

Going over.

All right!

Fifth generation fisherman Rick Shelford

sets 51 prospect pots southeast of the storm's path

before building seeds,

forcing him to shut down.

Hoping there's a... to grab it.

Look, the hook's gotta go in the middle where your hand was.

Roger.

Look out!

Hey!

Son of a bitch!

- You okay? - You all right?

Are we good?

Yeah, good.

Did he get hit?

Sort of, that's what threw him in.

You gotta be paying attention.

You can't just turn your back on a pot.

Yeah.

Lower back or what?

- Yeah, right in here. - Yeah.

Hey, Brandon, you wanna come in?

Roger.

It's hurting in, like, the lowest part of my back.

Is it feels like a muscle twitch?

More like a stabbing.

It... kind of hurt.

Like, I have a really high pain tolerance,

so I... I can push through it.

That's disappointing.

All right. Well, why don't you go lay down

and see how it goes?

We need you right now.

Sounds like a plan.

Let's go.

We're gonna jam over

and set another string out deep.

Seas are starting to build

and... I'm praying.

Brandon will be able to bounce back.

Ninety miles northwest,

under the leading tendril of the Kamchatka front...

It's just wicked.

Look at these things.

More gifts from Russia.

They're stealing our crab and sending us this weather.

Aboard the Barbara J...

We've been shut down for eight hours, like...

We gotta get something done here.

And I do not like to sit in here

and... and it's killing me,

but you can't push your way through Mother Nature.

Not when she's howling like this,

you gotta respect her.

Whoa! Watch out, watch out!

First to feel the wrath

of 45-knot winds and towering seas...

God.

Captain Steve "Harley" Davidson

and co-captain Jack Bunnell

rest 30 soaking pots from the grasps of the storm.

Big-ass wave.

We gotta get... We gotta get something done.

And I wanna travel, you know,

I need... I need to get this experience in this weather.

Woo-ho-ho!

It's big. I don't know...

Do you wanna try it?

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I do.

Heads up!

Whoo!

All right, Jack.

You wanna drive? You go ahead, buddy.

Yeah.

Let's keep my babies alive, man.

Keep those guys safe, man.

It's big weather. Stay off the rail.

I'll budge you when the buoy gets near the boat.

Is Jack driving?

You know, when you're coming in,

you gotta just be ready.

If one comes and a big one comes,

you're gonna back down.

Look at that one.

All right, here it comes.

- Right here. - Right here?

Back down, back down, back down.

Do you see that thing? Do you...

These are big waves, man.

Holy.

I think a mountain's coming at you.

It is big.

Damn.

There they are.

There you got the buoys right there.

We're just gonna test it.

If we don't pull a good news, we're not gonna...

I don't know if it's worth it.

Hold on, boys.

No, no. Back off, back off.

Come on.

Look at that big... Look at that big one, Jack.

You gotta pay attention to that stuff.

Or else that will frickin' knock your crew right out.

I think we can do this.

We haven't even started yet.

Maybe you...

The pots aren't even in the block.

Don't be getting all gung-ho on me.

Watch out.

Keep watching. Look at that one.

All right. Here it comes.

No wait. Watch out.

No wait. Watch out.

Ho-ho.

Damn it.

On the Barbara J...

One, two, three, four.

Yup, they're all here.

- Whoo! - Aah!

Could you keep the waves

on the other side of the block, please, Jack?

Well, shut this down. This is stupid.

Whoa!

My guys are getting.

Holy...

Hey, guys.

Come back in here,

'cause this is not going to work.

Whoa!

Let's just get a few more hours

and see if it calms down.

- Roger, roger. - Roger.

I hope this Kamchatka blow ain't getting close by.

But right now...

it's just too rough. We're gonna need to

cut more hours and look again. But...

Go get your chairs.

One hundred and ninety miles southwest,

amid the golden king crab grounds...

Pop-pon, pon-pon, pon-pon.

There is a storm warning.

A storm warning.

Aboard the Time Bandit...

There's swells coming from two different directions.

That tells you it's a big blow coming fast.

This is where I, was open fishing in '99

and I saw some handsome, some golden king crab,

and it was a very narrow band.

If we get one good pick,

we'll have a half a tank full of crab

and then they'll be able to hang on to each other,

protect each other when you're out here bobbing around.

As the Kamchatka front barrels their way...

You guys ready?

Let's go!

Captains Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand

gear up to haul 40 pots,

their sights set on the bulk of their $900,000 golden crab target.

Hopefully, it'll be out in five hours on the east side of that.

- What if we came back to a 20 average? - Yeah.

Come on, baby.

Let's go!

Yeah, baby!

We've done it!

Yeah!

- Whoo! - Yeah, baby.

- Best believe it! - Whoo!

- That's probably 30. - Yeah!

That's 30. I bet, Andy.

Isn't that 30?

That's probably 30 crabs.

Best pot of the year.

Yeah!

Yeah, baby!

Whoo!

Let's go! Whoo!

Thirty-three.

Thirty-three.

Yeah, baby. That was a good pot, brother.

Hell yeah.

It made him happy, guys.

- Yeah. - Roger.

You guys ready?

Yeah.

Yeah.

One over.

- We have a chance now, Andy. - Yup.

See, that's why I needed you back.

I'm back!

I'm back!

- Nice. - Right there.

- Bring it up. - That's a good pot!

A good pot!

- Thank you, sir. - Yeah.

Thank you, Andy.

It's all good, man.

Full gear with my brother.

Hell, yeah, yeah!

Thirty-five crab, whoo!

Come on, Andy.

That last pot had 35 in it.

I don't think I wanna tell him yet but...

I just got...

text from my, my...

my co-op manager.

We gotta see if we can get a permit

to go cod fishing or bairdi,

one or the other, so...

I gotta get back and...

see if we're gonna do bairdi or cod fish

- or what we're gonna do. - It'll be probably next one, Andy.

Okay.

- See that crazy person attached to yourself? - I just got that from Nikolai.

That's just very depressing.

"Are you expecting any bairdi?"

What?

What does he mean by that?

Probably wants me to come get the...

cod transferred from it.

Yeah.

So what are you trying to tell me again?

Are you trying to go home?

No. I'm telling you I have to go home.

- You have to go home. - Yeah.

Unfortunately, I do have to go back home.

I understand.

It is just gonna be...

We're gonna be...

- Dude, it has just been so nice having you out here, man. - Yeah.

We need to get you to town,

send you home.

Drive home in a 60-knot westerly.

I gotta watch out and anchor up.

Yeah.

Hopefully, everything works out.

I thought that you was gonna...

- Yeah? - Yeah, we're out of the woods now.

I have never hugged my brother this long.

My God, he kissed me.

He's touching me, Mom.

He's touching me, Mom.

Two hundred and sixty miles northeast...

Aw, he's still here.

And they know to stay on the starboard side.

They're really smart.

Aboard the Northwestern...

We're back on the gear.

We're just worried that we saw the crab

in numbers but very spotty,

but your never know.

Sometimes, a little luck goes a long way.

And hopefully, we'll have a decent pick.

With the delivery in four days,

Captain Sig prepares to haul strings

set on a sign of life

that he bet was no... well, fluke.

Going up.

Yeah!

Yeah!

Going up.

Yeah!

- Ho-ho. Whoo! - Yeah!

Are those big or small?

They're all big?

- Yeah, baby! - Whoo!

Whoa!

Set 'em back. Set 'em back.

You just gotta take a chance and roll the dice.

That's all there is to it.

No.

He's right there.

Man.

Set it when he's out of the way.

The whale won't let me set my pot.

All right, now he's just pissing me off.

He's thinking about it. He's thinking about it.

He's not there. Just set it.

- He's gone. - Go for it.

All right, well, we finally got that pot set.

What is that?

I don't know.

Got it in the wheel. It's in the wheel.

The line.

On the Northwestern...

Got it in the wheel. It's in the wheel.

The line.

I think it's in the rudder.

How do you like your whale friends now, Mandy?

They're still really cool.

I'm glad we installed those line cutters.

All right, in reverse.

Down a pot already.

Whale.

Well, I think we avoided a crisis here.

But we do have to make a delivery.

So these pots better hit, man.

100 miles southwest.

In the teeth of the Kamchatka front.

Nice water.

On the Aleutian Lady.

Whoa!

It's blowing about 45 out.

We got about 25 foot seas, and...

and an unbearable stream.

But I need this gear soaking and catching crab during this blow.

Everybody's gotta do their job and get it done fast and safe.

Gotta come over and do what you can back there.

Move it over already.

Get it out of here.

Watch out! Watch out!

Brandon's struggling.

Says his back's sore.

He turned his back on the pot. It fell.

He's fine.

I think he's just tired.

Roger.

Where's it going?

It's simple. Get it off the knot. There you go.

That's what I'm doing!

No, that's not what you're doing.

Damn it!

Wonderful.

Can't do that with my back.

Come on, Brandon!

The kid's back hurts.

Yeah, he is greener.

Gave him an anti-inflammatory.

We're hoping he can pull it together.

What happened there, man?

It's beyond frustrating.

I need a five-man deck.

But we might have to go to town and drop them off there.

80 miles northwest.

It's a little bit nautical out here today.

On the Barbara J.

It came down a little bit.

It's still big, but

I can do this.

- Wanna grab this one? - Okay.

Yeah, I'll get this one.

All right, dude.

Keep an eye on these guys. Make sure they get their lines straight.

My goal here is to get all 30 pots of it.

That's the goal when they lay it. We'll see if it works out.

You can't see what is going on right there.

There it is. It's right off my bow.

Get ready on that sucker.

15 more degrees.

Otherwise this wind will push you off and you'll never see it.

And then just back off it.

Ride up it. Going down.

Now we go again.

Getting better.

We made it.

Holy moly!

- That looked pretty good, didn't it? - That does look pretty good.

Can I get a number?

45.

Back down when it comes and go in again.

Perfect approach, man.

Gotta love it.

Good job, man.

I know my rhythm a little bit with these waves and where these buoys land.

Not too bad.

Baby. Watch out.

Watch out.

Little leak. Yeah.

This is how you get your first.

We are getting through it.

We got about ten pots to go up ahead.

Man. That's a big one we're going through.

Big one. Big one. Big one!

Big one. Big one. Big one!

Damn!

My God.

On the Barbara J...

- Everybody good? - Roger.

That's freaking ugly.

Right on the ram.

Dogs are on.

That was a hard hit.

The force of the water is so frickin' intense.

It'll bend steel.

There's nothing we can do about it. He's doing well.

Last one. It's a doozy.

I just can't wait for this pot to get in the rack and stacked.

And then I'm getting out of this chair.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Comin' up!

- There you go. - All right.

You got 'em. You got it.

All on board, nobody got washed.

- Frikkin' good work. - Yeah.

- Lousy job. I'll tell it to ya. - Thanks.

I know how stressful that is.

- I can't really believe how stressful it is. - Yeah.

- You've opened your eyes. - I did.

Fishing 101.

Let's end that on a good note. I'll see you tomorrow.

All right.

175 miles southwest.

Just outside St. George,

as the Kamchatka front sweeps toward the Privalofts.

It's crazy here.

The fear is coming, brother.

On the time bandit.

Gotta let her go.

We got four hours before we gotta be at the airport.

When we hit the dock, you'll have four hours to get to the airport.

I'm driving this just for you. This is Andy appreciation day.

Andy appreciation day.

Arriving to drop his little brother ashore,

captain Jonathan anchors down in 49 winds.

The bad thing about this is there's only two flights a week that leave this island.

Monday and Friday.

So this is the only chance to get off this island.

Only chance to get off this island.

Looks like it's starting blowing up there, brother.

Holy.

- Did you see how fast this weather just changed? - Yeah.

I was coming around on the north side and got this huge westerly swell.

Whoa!

Time to get outta here.

Boat's in a bad position.

There's rock right behind us so we gotta move.

All right, it's coming up.

Come on, guys. We're getting the hell out of here.

It's not good right now.

Anchor up! Now!

What are we hung up on?

Whoa. We better... I don't know what's going on.

We're caught on something!

Cable's stuck.

Running out of room here. Which way is the cable going?

That way.

That way!

It's hard to port, captain.

Roger that.

You might wanna be asking me where your survival suit is right now.

I can't talk to you right now.

Roger.

Ay ay ay.

We never get a break.

How many feet do we got until the beach, Andy?

Ain't much.

Come on, boys.

Get that son of a bitch up.

Yank on that bitch.

Yeah! Booyah!

Yeah, we got some slack here.

It's coming up!

All right, bring it in!

Get that thing coming up!

Bring it up, boys!

Bring it up, boys!

Here we go.

Get her up.

Sweetness!

Anchor's aboard!

Is it up?

Wow.

That was close. That's too close.

Andy!

I never doubted you for a second.

Let's get the hell outta here.

Yes!

I'm gonna miss you, man.

175 miles east.

On the Aleutian Lady.

How you feeling?

I think that my... I could have slipped a disc for all I know.

Take it easy right now, relax.

I don't want you doing much.

If you do anything, it'll be light, light duty.

All right, dude.

When you have a big blow like we've had,

the Kamchatka front, those crabs are gonna be hungry,

they're gonna be wanting food. They've been hunkered down.

It'll be a favela.

Bloody.

The guy should be fired right now and cut a per cent.

I know we gotta get through this trip and everything,

But I'm pissed. I would fire him right now.

I have to do things a certain way.

I cannot force him to go out there.

He's been complaining about it since day one.

Whenever he gets tired, "My back hurts."

I got a company I gotta manage and run.

Well, I'm good. I can work.

Well, that's normal.

That's normal Kaz right there.

There's no reason to come out here with a attitude.

Don't have an attitude with me!

Guys!

Have an attitude with me.

Hey! Don't treat me like some guy. Hey! Hey!

Back up!

On the Time Bandit.

My brother's leaving me.

So I'm gonna fill out my little hurt feelings report.

Whose feelings were hurt? Jonathan's.

Title of the person whose feelings were hurt.

Brother.

Yes, this is permanent feeling damage.

Reasons why.

My feelings were hurt.

I need him.

The boat needs him.

His brother Neal also needs him.

All right, I think this is done.

When he goes to pack his bags, this'll be on top of his knapsack or duffel bag.

I have thin skin.

Who hurt your feelings? Andy.

Injured feelings report.

Brotherly love, thoroughly documented.

- We gotta... Hey, hey, hey! - Back up!

- Hey, you're not gonna treat... - Kevin!

Kaz! Kevin! Back up.

Not gonna happen!

On the Aleutian Lady.

- Kaz! - I don't wanna see you in there.

Kaz, back away, man. Chill out.

You're hurt, go into your bunk.

Don't be sitting in the galley.

We're working here.

Just don't say, it's not your deal.

Because you're the one complaining about your back so don't say,

it's not you, it's him. It's you.

Hey, did you not hear? Are you deaf?

Shut your mouth for a second.

Shut the and listen.

You are not about to treat me like.

We will have a serious problem.

Turn the cameras off now!

Wait till we're off.

Chill out, guys.

I didn't ask for this.

- I went out, man. - Hey, guys, chill. Talk normal.

Better.

Let's go.

Sorry about that, Rick.

I get it. I didn't hear all of it. I just came down.

Let's just get out, haul gear. I'll bring him up here,

put him in his bunk and go on from there.

And let's friggin hope and pray we hit the mother lode and get this wrapped up.

All right, guys. Let's get this going. We've got about a mile.

Green horn's yelling at the chief like they're running the boat.

Boy.

That got my blood boiling, man.

We've got two sets. This was one to see if the crab went shallow.

I'm beyond ready for some good news, man.

That one's good.

Looks like they're all keepers.

Not bad, not bad.

Good sizes in that one.

21!

All keepers.

That's a short soak. And...

hopefully, it keeps getting better.

Come on, baby.

There we go.

Lots of crab.

There's more.

There might be 30.

Yeah, baby!

Hell yeah.

Hell yeah.

Yeah!

Freakin' A. It's about time.

That's the sign I was looking for, right there.

We're setting this back double time. I like the meat here.

Roger.

Double time, Cap.

If these keep growing they way they're growing,

we might be in all right shape.

But I might lose the crab again,

if I gotta go to town because I need a new crew.

90 miles northeast.

- How many? - 58.

Five-eight. Feels great.

I'll take that all day long.

Are you happy now?

Have faith, little buckaroo.

Fishing isn't just strategy.

Fishing is time, effort, a little bit of luck.

Morning, Harley.

How's it going?

How long is this weather gonna last?

Still brewin'.

That little puff we had last night, just got a little breather between it.

And then the big puff's coming.

But you're doing a good job, man.

You listen, you kept these gates safe.

It's some pretty tough weather.

You did perfect. That was a god hit.

Yeah, let's do it.

Yeah. That's a good looking pot, buddy.

Fish like this, we might just have to fish through the storm.

Yeah, why don't you go back to bed?

All of a sudden you're super-Jack?

185 miles southwest.

Time Bandit, baby!

It's good to come here myself.

Brother's leaving me.

I'm gonna tear up.

I love you, brother.

Good seeing you, man.

Yeah, thanks for everything, man.

- Sorry I couldn't do more. - No worries. We'll go out and finish for ya.

- It's what we do. Shut that door. - Sounds good, Johnny.

Don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you.

He's my best friend. He's my brother.

It was good to have you out here. We needed that.

And we had all three brothers together again, which is a great thing.

So we'll have those fishing memories forever.

Back to fishing 101.

Time Bandit!
