OH [BLEEP]
WHO IS THAT?
THAT'S DEFINITELY
HILLSTRAND.
COME ON IN, JOHNNY.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING,
BROTHER?!
BOOM! YEE-HAW!
MY NAME IS JOSH HARRIS...
BRING IT, BUDDY!
...AND MY DAD
WAS CAPTAIN PHIL HARRIS,
A LEGEND ON THE BERING SEA.
YOU CAN'T GET ANY BETTER
[BLEEP] THAN ME.
MY DAD WAS A BADASS FISHERMAN.
WHEN HE DIED...
HE LEFT ME A MYSTERY,
CHARTS HE MADE YEARS AGO
WHILE EXPLORING HAWAII.
BUT I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS,
THAT'S FOR SURE.
THAT'S THE BIGGEST FISH
I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE, DUDE.
IT'S A BIG BOY!
THAT'S WHY I CALLED IN ONE
OF MY DAD'S BEST FRIENDS...
I WANT IN ON THIS ONE.
...JONATHAN HILLSTRAND.
BACK UP, BACK UP,
BACK UP!
BACK THE BOAT UP, DUDE!
BACK IT UP.
IF JONATHAN HILLSTRAND
CAN'T HELP ME
SOLVE THE MYSTERIES
OF MY DAD'S CHARTS...
WE'RE LIVING PHIL'S DREAM.
PHIL SHOULD BE HERE WITH US.
...THEN I DON'T KNOW WHO CAN.
LET'S GET THE PARTY
STARTED.
[ LAUGHTER ]
OH...
CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY
DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS

Johnathan: THANKS FOR COMING
TO GET ME AT THE AIRPORT.
-WELL, YOU KNOW, HEY...
-I DIDN'T EXPECT YOU
TO GET UP HERE
SO QUICK.
-YOU WANT A CUP OF COFFEE?
-YEAH, MAN.
AWESOME.
THIS IS A NICE PAD, MAN.
JOHNATHAN HILLSTRAND OWNED
AND OPERATED THE TIME BANDIT,
SECOND FAMILY TO ME.
YEAH, BABY, YEAH.
WE LOADED THIS BITCH.
HE'S BEEN CONQUERING
THE BERING SEA
FOR MORE THAN 40 YEARS.
YEAH BABY, NO WAY!
YEAH, BABY, BABY, BABY, BABY!
OH, MAN. YOU CAN TASTE IT.
[ SMACKS LIPS ]
[ INHALING SHARPLY ]
HILLSTRAND HAS MADE
A NAME FOR HIMSELF
AS A COWBOY ON THE WATER
DOING THINGS HIS OWN WAY.
WE'RE LIKE
IN NO MAN'S LAND NOW.
WE'RE THE ONLY BOAT OUT HERE
FOR MILES AND MILES AND MILES.
[ ALL CHEERING ]
JOHN AND PHIL HARRIS.
CUT FROM THE SAME CLOTH.
LET'S TAKE A LITTLE PEEKSKI
AT THIS.
YOU HAVE THE CHART RIGHT HERE?
OH, YEAH. PERFECT.
WE ACTUALLY HAVE
A COUPLE MORE THAN THIS.
WE DIDN'T BRING THEM
ALL OVER WITH US,
BUT THIS IS THE ONE WE'VE
MAINLY BEEN WORKING OFF OF.
PHIL HARRIS
WAS A GREAT FISHERMAN.
I LOOKED UP TO HIM.
I'VE KNOWN PHIL
FOR OVER 35 YEARS.
PHIL WAS FIVE OR SIX YEARS
OLDER THAN ME.
HE WAS LIKE AN OLDER BROTHER,
A MENTOR.
I KNEW PHIL BEFORE JOSH
WAS BORN.
WE GO WAY BACK.
♪
SO NOW JOSH IS LIKE
ON A VISION QUEST.
FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HELL HIS
OLD MAN WAS UP TO OVER HERE,
AND HE'S JUST TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT THE MYSTERY.
I GUARANTEE YOU
IF HE MADE THESE MARKS,
THERE'S A DAMN GOOD REASON
FOR THESE MARKS TO BE HERE.
IF I WOULD HAVE FOUND
THESE CHARTS,
I WOULD HAVE HAD TO
CHECK IT OUT, TOO.
SO THERE'S A SHARK BITE AHI
RIGHT HERE,
PULLED OUR FIRST BIG AHI,
AND IT GOT EATEN BY A SHARK.
HEAD FIRST, HEAD FIRST.
HEAD TOWARDS ME.
HOLY [BLEEP]
WHOA, HE PROBABLY GOT HIT
BY THE SHARK AND DRUG DOWN.
LOOK, HE'S EVEN SHOCKED.
THERE'S THE SHARK
RIGHT THERE.
HE'S BACK.
OH, MY GOD.
WE GOT THREE-QUARTERS
OF THE FISH.
VERY ROUGH. WE DON'T WANT
TO GO THERE, DO WE?
WE ACTUALLY DID IT.
LIVING THE DREAM
IF YOU ASK ME, MAN.
I WANT IN ON THIS ONE.
I CAN HELP THEM
GET INSIDE PHIL HARRIS' HEAD
AND TRY TO FIGURE OUT
THIS MYSTERY,
AND THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE GOING TO DO.
"LOTS OF BARS!"
[ CHUCKLES ]
NO, "LOTS OF GOOD BARS!"
WITH A CAPITAL "D" IN "GOOD."
-BARS.
-ISN'T THAT WEIRD?
DID YOU EVER COME OVER HERE
WITH PHIL?
NO. A LOT OF GUYS
FROM ALASKA CAME HERE.
BACK IN EARLY '80s, WE HAD TWO
YEARS WE DIDN'T HAVE KING CRAB.
I WENT TO THE EAST COAST.
PHIL CAME OVER HERE,
AND HE LEFT SOME CHARTS.
NOBODY IN THE BERING SEA'S
PROBABLY GOT HAWAII CHARTS
EXCEPT PHIL.
LEAVE IT TO PHIL HARRIS.
I'M SURE YOUR DAD
KNEW EVERYBODY IN TOWN,
SO WE SHOULD PROBABLY
GO TO THOSE BARS,
SEE IF HE'S GOT ANY BUDDIES
THAT CAN TELL YOU MORE STUFF,
BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE
SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE
FROM THEM OLD-TIMERS OUT HERE.
WE SHOULD GO INVESTIGATE, MAYBE.
I'M KIND OF IN THE MOOD
TO INVESTIGATE A BAR.
WE GOT TO HAVE A DUCK FART
FOR YOUR DAD.
OH, GOD.
YEAH. ANOTHER 20 BILLION
DUCK FARTS LATER.
PHIL, WHEN I LOOK
AT THAT CHART MAP,
NOW I GUARANTEE PHIL WAS AT
EVERY BAR IN THIS WHOLE ISLAND,
AND HE TALKED TO EVERYBODY.
HE PROBABLY KNEW
EVERYBODY ON THE ISLAND.
IN FACT, PHIL USED TO SAY,
"YOU WANT TO THINK LIKE A FISH?
DRINK LIKE A FISH."
LET'S GO FIND OUT, MAN.
YOU WANT TO SEE
THE FLAGSHIP?
YEAH.
I WANT TO SEE THE SHIP.
-GRAB YOUR COFFEE, LET'S ROLL.
-OKAY, MAN.
BRING YOUR SUNGLASSES.
THIS THING'S SHINY.
[ CHUCKLES ]
Josh: I'M SO PUMPED HILLSTRAND
IS HERE.
JOHN, HE'S ONE OF THOSE GUYS
THAT YOU WANT AROUND
TO KIND OF HELP FIX
ALL THE PROBLEMS.
HE ALWAYS KNOWS
HOW TO SHAKE THINGS UP.
AND TO BE HONEST, THIS IS
EXACTLY WHAT CASEY AND I NEED.
THIS BOAT MAKES
THE CORNELIA LOOK SMALL.
Johnathan: [ Chuckling ]
ARE YOU [BLEEP] KIDDING ME?
OH, GOD.
ARE YOU GUYS CRAZY?
YOU [BLEEP]
WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF THE BEAST?
WE'RE GOING TO NEED
A BIGGER BOAT.
ARE YOU GUYS CRAZY?
Johnathan: I SEE THIS LITTLE
TINY DINGHY THING ON A TRAILER.
I GO, NO,
THAT'S NOT THE BOAT.
IT'S NOT --
IT'S LIKE A BATHTUB TOY.
I HAD BIGGER TOYS IN THE BATHTUB
WHEN I WAS A KID.
BUT IT'S GOT
A CAPTAIN'S CHAIR.
ALL RIGHT.
THIS THING'S LIKE LITTLE.
[BLEEP]
-HOW LONG IS THIS BOAT?
-19 FEET.
19 FEET, OH, MY GOD.
19 FEET OF FURY.
I THINK HE WAS --
I COULD HEAR THE EYE ROLL
WHEN HE LOOKED AT THAT BOAT.
HE'S LIKE, "YOU SERIOUSLY --
YOU TWO GUYS HAVE BEEN OUT
FISHING IN SOMETHING THIS SIZE?"
YOU CAN GO 20 MILES OUT
IN THIS THING?
25.
[ Chuckling ] 25?
GOD HELP US.
HEY, WE MADE IT BACK
EVERY TIME. SEE?
NO ONE'S DIED YET, JOHN.
I KNOW WHERE HILLSTRAND'S
COMING FROM.
HIS BOAT, THE TIME BANDIT, IS
WELL OVER A HUNDRED FEET LONG.

BLBLBLBLBLBLBL!
GO! GO! GO! GO! GO!
YOU COULD DEFINITELY FIT MORE
THAN 10 OF THESE HAWAIIAN BOATS
ON JUST THE DECK
OF THE CORNELIA MARIE.
OH, YEAH!
WHOA, YEAH!
THIS AIN'T LUXURY, BUT IT'S
DEFINITELY GETTING THE JOB DONE.
MY DAD WAS PROBABLY USING ONE OF
THESE TINY BOATS 30 YEARS AGO.
YOU GUYS ARE [BLEEP] CRAZY,
[BLEEP] CRAZY,
BUT I'M READY
TO GO WITH YOU.
[ LAUGHS ]
WELL, STEP ONE, LET'S GO
TALK TO THE LOCALS.
IF YOU GO TO A FISHING BAR
AND PEOPLE ARE DRINKING,
THEY'RE GOING TO SPILL
ALL THEIR INFORMATION.
THEY'LL TELL YOU
EVERYTHING THEY KNOW, DUDE.
EVEN IF WE DON'T MEET ANYBODY
THAT KNOWS PHIL,
THAT HUNG OUT WITH PHIL,
WE'RE GOING TO GET INFORMATION,

LOOKING AROUND HERE,
AND WHAT DO I SEE?
NOTHING BUT GOD'S COUNTRY.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL OUT HERE.
IT'S PARADISE.
THIS PLACE IS --
I MEAN,
LOOK AT ALL THE COLORS
AND EVERYTHING.
THE PLUMERIAS AND...
I COULD SEE WHY THE OLD MAN
WOULD MAKE HIS WAY OVER HERE.
I CAN SEE YOUR DAD WITH THIS
JUST BIG [BLEEP] EATING GRIN
ON HIS FACE, SMILING BIGGER
THAN THE CHESHIRE CAT.
I SEE YOUR DAD'S GRIN,

I CAN IMAGINE YOUR DAD
HANGING OUT DOWN HERE, MAN.
DUDE, I COULD, TOO.
A LOT OF HAPPY PEOPLE.
Johnathan: IT'S A LOT OF FUN
HANGING OUT WITH JOSH.
HE'S A LOT LIKE PHIL.
HE'S GOT THE GIFT OF GAB,
BUT HE GABS A LITTLE BIT
MORE THAN PHIL DID.
DUDE, WE GOT TO FIND OUT
THE LOCAL SPOT
THAT'S WITHIN
THIS AREA, MAN.
WE JUST GOT TO FIND PEOPLE
THAT LOOK LOCAL AND ASK THEM.
TATTOOS, PHIL WOULD
GO GET A TATTOO.
THAT'S PERFECT.
Johnathan: PILL HAD LIKE
A SHIRT ON, TATTOOS.
HE HAD, I DON'T KNOW,
I CAN'T EVEN COUNT.
I SAY OVER 50.
HE HAD THIS PIRATE DONE,
AND IT LOOKED JUST LIKE HIM.
THAT'S WHAT I THINK
HIS FAVORITE ONE WAS,
THE TATTOO OF HIMSELF
AS A PIRATE.
TATTOO.
TATTOOS, THE OLD MAN WOULD
DEFINITELY BE INTO THIS.
TATTOO ARTISTS ARE MY
DAD'S STYLE OF PEOPLE,
SO I BET YOU
THEY COULD RECOMMEND
A GOOD BAR TO CHECK OUT.
BUT MY DAD, HE WAS A FISHERMAN,
HE DIED ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO.
WE FOUND THESE CHARTS,
OLD CHARTS, KIND OF CRAZY STUFF,
AND ALL THESE PLACES
WERE OUTLINED FOR FISHING,
AND THEN THERE WAS
A CIRCLE OF GOOD BARS.
BUT WE'RE LOOKING
AT DIFFERENT PLACES,
KIND OF RELIVING THE MOMENT.
SAM'S HIDEAWAY?
THAT'S THE SPOT?
OKAY. ALL RIGHT. BOOM!
-YOU SECOND THAT?
-YEAH.
THAT WAS COOL AS HELL.

IT'S A GROUP OF HOT CHICKS.
THEY DEFINITELY
KNOW WHERE TO GO.
HEY, DO YOU GUYS KNOW WHERE
ANY GOOD BARS ARE AROUND HERE?
-A DIVE BAR?
-YEAH.
THERE'S ACTUALLY A REALLY

HE HAS HIS SHIRT
HANGING UP IN THE OFFICE

HILLSTRAND HAD THIS GRANDIOSO
IDEA OF HITTING THE LOCAL BARS.
I ACTUALLY NEVER THOUGHT
IT WOULD PAY OFF.
AND THEN I RUN INTO SOMEBODY
THAT MET MY FATHER 30 YEARS AGO.
I GUESS WE'RE THE RIGHT
PLACE AFTER ALL.

LIKE, TALKING TO THESE GUYS.
ONE THING IS WE REALLY NEED
TO FOCUS ON OUR FISHING.

MY NAME'S BRIAN.
BRIAN?
-YEAH.
-NICE.

HEY, MAN, WHAT'S UP?
SO I FISH FOR BLUE MARLIN
EVERY SINGLE YEAR
FOR BIG MONEY HERE.
WHAT'S THE BIGGEST ONE YOU
EVER CAUGHT?
MY DAD FISHED IN ALASKA.
HE PASSED AWAY.
WE'RE ON
THE 10-YEAR ANNIVERSARY.
MY DAD ALWAYS WANTED
TO CATCH A MARLIN.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
HE'S GOING TO STAB ME?
WHEN WE CAME HERE, WE ALREADY
KNEW THAT FISHING IN HAWAII
WAS NO JOKE, BUT I DIDN'T
UNDERSTAND THE FISH HERE
WERE GOING TO BE CAPABLE
OF KILLING YOU.
FISHING IN ALASKA IS TOUGH,
BUT AT LEAST THE CRAB
DON'T FIGHT BACK.

-NO.
-POUNDAGE.

WE NEED TO DO A DUCK FART.
-CHEERS, BOYS.
-WE NEED TO DO A DUCK FART.
-FOR PHIL?
-TIMEOUT. [BLEEP]
WE GOT TO DO
A DUCK FART. SORRY.
I MEAN, DUCK FART FOR PHIL.

TALKS US INTO IT.
IT IS THE WORST TASTING THING
IN YOUR LIFE.
DUCK FARTS ARE GOOD, MAN.

15, 16 YEARS AGO, NO ONE KNEW
HOW TO MAKE A DUCK FART.

"YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE
A DUCK FART?"
AND THEY'D GO, "NO."
AND HE SAID,
"WELL, YOU SQUEEZE HIM."
ONE MORE TIME FOR YOU.
"YOU SQUEEZE HIM."
