Wicked Tuna (2012–…): Season 6, Episode 6 - Doldrums and Dog Days - full transcript
NARRATOR: ON THIS
EPISODE OF WICKED TUNA...
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WHOO,
GET SOME, BABY, GET SOME!
DAVE CARRARO: NOTHING MORE
FUN THAN FIGHTING A FISH
ON A DAY LIKE TODAY.
SANDRO MANIACI:
THAT'S FOR SURE.
NARRATOR: THE SEASON
HITS THE HALFWAY POINT...
TJ OTT: OH, DAMN IT,
BOUNCED RIGHT OFF HIM.
JAY MUENZNER: THAT'S
A FISH, THAT'S A FISH!
GOT 'EM ON, BABY.
DAVE CARRARO: THERE HE IS.
NARRATOR: AND AS THE
COMPETITION HEATS UP...
SANDRO MANIACI:
THE SUN IS HOT.
DAVE CARRARO: YEAH, BABY.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
THERE'S YOUR SHOT, NICE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
PERFECT SHOT.
NARRATOR: WHO WILL CATCH FIRE?
DAVE CARRARO:
WHEN YOU'RE HOT, YOU'RE HOT.
WHEN YOU'RE NOT, YOU'RE NOT.
TJ OTT: THAT'S HOW
WE DO IT BABY, PA-POW!
NARRATOR: AND WHO IS
GOING DOWN IN FLAMES?
PAUL HEBERT: TURN
THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
REEL, REEL, REEL, KEEP GOING.
NO, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
RICK SCHRAFFT: I THINK
WE NEED TO HAVE A CHAT.
PAUL HEBERT: I TOLD YOU
AT THE BEGINNING THAT I'M
WICKED HARD TO WORK WITH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: BUT
I CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH.
JAY MUENZNER:
THAT'S NOT IN GOOD.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: GET
HIM OUT OF THE WAY.
TJ OTT: OH, THIS IS NOT FUN.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
OH, WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON.
NARRATOR: THIS...
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: NICE!
NARRATOR: IS WICKED TUNA.
AT THE START OF
WEEK SIX OF FISHING,
LAST SEASON'S CHAMPION
FISHING VESSEL-TUNA DOT COM
HOLDS ON TO THE TOP SPOT
FOR THE SECOND WEEK RUNNING.
BUT THE YOUNG
DUO ABOARD PINWHEEL ARE
WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE.
MEANWHILE, LESS THAN
$3,000 SEPARATE HOT TUNA,
WICKED PISSAH AND
HARD MERCHANDISE.
DAVE CARRARO:
BEAUTIFUL MORNING.
SANDRO, LET'S TRY
AND GET IT DONE TODAY.
DUDE, WE GOT TO
GET IT DONE TODAY.
THIS WEEK IS THE HALFWAY
POINT OF THE SEASON.
AND FOR EVERYONE IN THE FLEET,
THIS COULD BE THE
HARDEST TIME OF THE YEAR.
EVERYTHING TURNS INTO A GRIND.
LONG DAYS ON THE WATER,
LONG DAYS WITHOUT
SEEING ANYTHING,
IT'S ALL TELLING YOU,
"JUST GO BACK TO THE DOCK."
TUNA COULD BE IN A
MILLION DIFFERENT PLACES THAT
WE FISH UP AND
DOWN THE COAST OF MAINE,
NEW HAMPSHIRE, MASSACHUSETTS.
SOMETIMES IT IS
THROWING DARTS AT THE BOARD,
"HEY, WHERE DO
YOU WANT TO GO."
YOU TRY ONE SPOT,
YOU PROSPECT THAT'S
WHAT WE CALL IT.
IF THEY'RE,
YOU DON'T SEE MUCH,
YOU MOVE ON TO THE NEXT SPOT.
THE DOT COM HAS BEEN
SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE WE'RE ON
THE WATER AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
GEORDIE, SWING THIS ROD IN.
WE'RE ON TOP OF THE FLEET.
THE PRESSURE IS ON
BUT WE WOULDN'T HAVE
IT ANY OTHER WAY.
I'D LOVE TWO MORE BUT ONE
MORE WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY.
SANDRO MANIACI: I'LL
BE HAPPY WITH ONE MORE.
DAVE CARRARO: I HOPE SO.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
WE'RE OUT HERE GRINDING
AS HARD AS WE CAN,
WE'RE MARKING SOME FISH,
IT'D BE AWESOME TO CATCH
A FISH THIS MORNING.
WE'RE ONLY A FEW FISH BEHIND
THE SANDRO DOT COM AND,
THAT'S ALL WE NEED IS,
LIKE, ONE OR TWO FISH AND
THEN WE CAN GET
THE BALL GOING AGAIN.
IT'D BE NICE TO START
THIS TRIP OFF WITH A FISH.
WE NEED A TAIL HANGING
OFF THE BACK OF THE BOAT.
WE'RE HALFWAY THROUGH THE
SEASON AND THE ONLY REASON WHY
WE'RE NOT IN THE LEAD IS
BECAUSE DOT COM CHEATED HIS
WAY TO THE TOP SPOT.
TWO WEEKS AGO, SANDRO
AND GEORDIE CAUGHT
FIVE FISH WITHOUT DAVE.
AND NOW, DAVE'S
CLAIMING THEM AS HIS OWN.
IT'S PRETTY PATHETIC
WHEN A GROWN MAN'S GOTTA
GO TO THAT EXTENT.
DAVE CARRARO: I'M A MENTOR.
MY BOAT HAS ALWAYS CAUGHT
FISH AND IT WILL CONTINUE WELL
AFTER THEY LEAVE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
IN MY MIND,
WE'VE OUT-FISHED
THE DOT COM SO FAR.
DUFFY AND I HAVE BEEN
STAYING OUT OF THE DRAMA.
HEY, DUFF, WE'RE GONNA MOVE.
WE'RE JUST GONNA KEEP
OUR HEADS DOWN AND OUTFISH
EVERYBODY ELSE IN THE
FLEET, ESPECIALLY DOT COM.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
TIME TO GRIND, BROTHER.
TJ OTT: OH, BRIGHT MORNING
HERE IN THE GULF OF MAINE.
GOD.
BRIGHT SUNSHINY DAY.
WHY AM I NOT GOING OFF?
OVER THE PAST FIVE WEEKS,
WE'VE ONLY MANAGED TO CATCH
THREE BLUEFIN ON THE
HOT TUNA AND WE'RE WAY BEHIND
DOT COM AND PINWHEEL.
HALFWAY THROUGH THE SEASON,
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE THERE'S
STILL ENOUGH TIME TO
MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN.
YOU JUST HAVE TO BELIEVE
THAT TODAY COULD BE THE DAY.
[BEEPING]
OH, THERE'S A
FISH RIGHT THERE.
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
[DOG BARKING]
WE'RE ON, START THE
MOTOR, START THE MOTOR.
MICHAEL, COME ON, LET'S GO,
GO, GO [INAUDIBLE]
BACK ON THE ROD.
COME TO THIS ROD.
GOT 'EM ON, TOOK A BIG RUN.
NOT SURE HOW BIG HE IS
BUT WE'LL FIND OUT HERE
IN A MINUTE.
GET A HARPOON READY,
HE'S CLOSE.
FEEL LIKE A KEEPER?
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
FEELS GOOD SO FAR.
[BARKING]
MIKE OTT:
COME ON, GIRLS, INSIDE.
GET INSIDE, COME ON.
TJ OTT: GOOD GIRLS,
YEAH, GET INSIDE.
GOOD GIRLS.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
I CAN SEE COLOR.
TJ OTT: HOW'S HE LOOK?
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
LOOKS LEGAL TO ME.
TJ OTT: SWING HIM
OUT, SWING HIM OUT.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
RIGHT THERE.
TJ OTT: DEFINITELY LEGAL.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
IT'S OVER HERE.
MIKE OTT: TAIL ROPE'S READY.
TAIL ROPE'S READY, IT'S READY.
TJ OTT: OH, DAMMIT.
MIKE OTT: DID YOU GET HIM?
TJ OTT: NO,
BOUNCED RIGHT OFF HIM.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
HE'S COMING RIGHT BACK UP.
TJ OTT: GOT HIM.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI: THERE
YOU GO, COMING TO MY RIGHT.
MIKE OTT: GOT HIM.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
GET THE TAIL ROPE.
MIKE OTT: YEAH, BABY!
THAT'S HOW YOU WAKE UP.
BOOM.
TJ OTT: THAT'S HOW WE
DO IT BABY, PA-POW!
MIKE OTT: NICE JOB, JARRETT.
[BARKING]
RIPPLE LET HERSELF OUT,
GOOD GIRL.
TJ OTT:
OH, NUMBER FOUR, BABY.
WHOO, WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE HIM,
TAKE ONE OF THESE EVERY DAY.
MIKE OTT: 79.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
79, ALL RIGHT.
TJ OTT: BAG HIM, TAG HIM,
AND SELL HIM TO THE BUYER
ON THE SHORE.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
YEAH, BABY.
TJ OTT: DOGS LIKE IT.
IF THE DOGS LIKE
IT, IT'S A GOOD ONE.
THANKFULLY, WE'VE GOT HIM.
I'M HOPING WE GET A
HOT STREAK GOING IN THE
SECOND HALF OF OUR SEASON.
BANJEE-GA-GA!
WE GOT ONE, 79 INCHES.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
HE'S DOING GOOD.
HE'S IN A REALLY
GOOD SPOT OVER THERE.
MATT MATTSON: I DON'T LIKE
SEEING PEOPLE HOOK UP AROUND
ME AT ALL BUT I DON'T MIND
IF IT'S THE HOT TUNA BECAUSE
WE'RE HOPING THE TUNA WILL
FLICK THEIR TAILS ON THIS WAY,
YOU KNOW.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
SEND SOME OVER THIS WAY.
TJ OTT: OH, WE
WOULD LOVE TO, BRO.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: TJ JUST
GOT ANOTHER ONE.
THE FIRST HALF OF THE
SEASON HAS BEEN SLOW ON
THE FISH HAWK.
AFTER LAST YEAR
FISHING WITH PAUL,
I STARTED THE SEASON WANTING
TO PROVE THAT I COULD
GET IT DONE ON MY OWN BOAT.
BUT SO FAR,
THAT HASN'T WORKED OUT.
WE'RE WAITING PATIENTLY FOR
OUR FISH HERE BUT IT'S NOT,
IT HASN'T BEEN COMING.
MATT MATTSON: WE ONLY
CAUGHT TWO FISH SO FAR,
LESS THAN EVERYBODY
ELSE IN THE FLEET.
BUT IN MY MIND, WE STILL
HAVE HALF THE SEASON LEFT
TO TURN OUR FORTUNES AROUND.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: HE'S GETTING
SOME NICE CINDERELLA BITES.
HE SOUNDS VERY
HAPPY OVER THERE.
MATT MATTSON: SOONER OR
LATER, WE'RE GONNA GET THEM.
WE'LL GET OUR FAIR SHARE
OF FISH, THAT'S FOR SURE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: GOT TO STICK IT
OUT HERE FOR A LITTLE WHILE NOW,
MAYBE THERE'S A
COUPLE COMING AROUND.
[BOAT HORN]
PAUL HEBERT: GO!
THIS GUY HAS GOT TO GO A
LOT FASTER THAN HE'S GOING.
JESUS, HURRY UP.
THIS (BLEEP) SCUMBAG.
RICK SCHRAFFT: HEY, HEY.
PAUL HEBERT: GO, GO!
IT'S THE MIDPOINT
OF THE SEASON.
WE NEED TO GET OUT ON
TO THESE FISH BUT I'M HAVING
A HARD ENOUGH TIME
GETTING OUT OF THE HARBOR.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
JEEZ, CALM DOWN, CAP.
THE DAY'S BARELY STARTED.
THIS GUY'S A (BLEEP).
I'VE KNOWN PAUL
FOR EIGHT YEARS.
ON LAND, HE'S NICE,
KIND, AND GENEROUS.
BUT ONCE WE LEAVE THE HARBOR,
HE'S A DIFFERENT PERSON.
PAUL HEBERT: NOW HE GOES.
WHAT A SCUMBAG.
WEEKEND WARRIOR.
RICK SCHRAFFT: SPENDING
WEEKS AND WEEKS ON THE WATER
REALLY TAKES ITS TOLL
ESPECIALLY WHEN PAUL'S ADDING
STRESS TO THE SITUATION.
I JUST HOPE I CAN SURVIVE
THE SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON.
PAUL HEBERT:
PIECE OF (BLEEP).
RICK SCHRAFFT: I DON'T LIKE
TO MAKE ANYONE UPSET, YOU KNOW?
PAUL HEBERT: YOU LIKE
EVERYONE TO BE HAPPY?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH, I HATE
FIGHTS, I HATE ARGUMENTS.
PAUL HEBERT: AT THIS
POINT IN THE SEASON,
WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO MAKE
EXCUSES AND LOLLYGAG AROUND.
IT'S TIME TO GRIND IF WE
WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
LET'S GO CATCH SOME FISH
AND GET OUT OF HERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH, SOUNDS GOOD.
THAT WAS TOO MUCH
EXCITEMENT RIGHT THERE.
[BEEPING]
JAY MUENZNER: THERE'S
A FISH DOWN THERE, 15...
DAVE MARCIANO:
WHAT'S THAT, JAY?
JAY MUENZNER: 15.
DAVE MARCIANO: OKAY.
JAY MUENZNER: HAD A MARK,
15, 20, RIGHT AROUND THERE.
DAVE MARCIANO: WELL,
WE'RE GETTING STARTED.
WE'RE OUT ON PLATTS.
WE HAVE JUST MARKED THE
FIRST FISH OF THE DAY.
WE'RE HOPING WE CAN MAKE
SOMETHING HAPPEN HERE.
THE FIRST HALF OF
THE SEASON HASN'T GONE
THE WAY I HAD HOPED.
DAVE MARCIANO: ALONG WITH
MY NEPHEW JAY AND MY SON JOE,
WE'VE ONLY MANAGED TO
GET TWO FISH SO FAR.
JAY MUENZNER: YOU KNOW,
THAT'S HOW FISHING IS,
YOU GO A BUNCH OF DAYS,
CATCH A BUNCH OF FISH.
YOU COULD GO A BUNCH OF
DAYS AND CATCHING NOTHING.
IT'S FISHING, YOU DON'T
KNOW WHEN YOU'RE GONNA LAND ON
THAT BIG SCORE OF FISH SO
YOU GOT TO JUST KEEP GOING
THROUGH THE MOTIONS,
EVENTUALLY YOUR TIME WILL COME,
AND HOPEFULLY WHEN YOU DO GET
THE BITE, YOU GET TO LAND HIM.
THE MOOD ON THE BOAT
IS GOOD AND THERE'S STILL
PLENTY OF SEASON
LEFT TO GET ON A ROLL.
WE JUST HAVE TO GET
IT GOING THIS WEEK.
DAVE MARCIANO:
WELL, WE SAW A FISH.
IT'S FUNNY.
BEFORE WE EVEN GOT ANY
HOOKS IN THE WATER,
FISH ON THE SCREEN
A COUPLE TIMES.
NOW THAT WE GOT HOOKS
OUT, WE CAN'T MARK ONE.
I SWEAR, WHAT THESE THINGS
DO IS THEY SIT OUTSIDE,
JUST OUTSIDE WHERE
WE CAN SEE 'EM,
AND THEN THEY START
LAUGHING AND GO AWAY.
JOE MARCIANO: WELL, WE
HAVEN'T SEEN MUCH IN THE
LAST COUPLE OF DAYS BUT ALL
OF A SUDDEN, THE NEXT DAY,
YOU COULD BE ON FIVE FISH.
A BUNCH OF FISH SO, THAT'S
WHAT WE'RE HOPING FOR TODAY.
HOPEFULLY WE GET LUCKY,
START OFF WITH ONE,
AND LET'S GET
THAT ROD TO BEND.
RICK SCHRAFFT: THIS IS
THE SAME FREAKING HOOK.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT'S GOOD.
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH, THAT
WAS THE ONE THAT WAS ON.
PAUL HEBERT: RIGHT HERE.
REGULAR SABIKIS,
THAT'S IT RIGHT THERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: IT'S
THE SAME RIG, PAUL.
I HAD THE SAME RIG BUT YOU
JUST TOLD ME TO TAKE OFF.
PAUL HEBERT: REGULAR SABIKI.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
PAULIE, I HAD IT ON.
PAUL HEBERT:
THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
(BLEEP) UNBELIEVABLE.
TODAY, PAUL'S ON MY CASE
AND IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE
HE'S GONNA
LET UP ANYTIME SOON.
PAUL HEBERT: JUST
PUT THIS ONE OVER THERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH, GO
EASY WHEN YOU GO DOWN ON
THE ROD HOLDER, YOU'RE
GONNA SMASH MY THINGS IN THERE.
GO NICE AND EASY.
WHEN I'M SETTING UP TO
GO MAKE MONEY TO FEED MY
FAMILY AND PAY MY BILLS,
YOU ONLY GET THIS MUCH TIME.
GO NICE AND EASY
WITH THAT STUFF.
I HAVE TO BE TOUGH ON RICK,
SO WE HAVE THE BEST CHANCE
TO BE SUCCESSFUL FOR THE
REST OF THE SEASON.
[BEEPING]
LOOK AT THE TUNAS.
LOOK AT THAT, TUNA TIME.
UP AND DOWN, UP AND DOWN.
IT'S LOOKING BETTER HERE.
IT'S LOOKING GOOD.
[BEEPING]
WOW, THEY'RE RUNNING AROUND
AT LEAST WE KNOW THEY'RE HERE.
HERE COMES A TUNA.
[BEEPING]
THEY'RE COMING.
[CLICKING]
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO.
RICK, RICK!
RICK SCHRAFFT: YES.
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH, BABY.
RICK, ALL RIGHT,
NEVER MIND THE GLOVE.
(BLEEP) THE GLOVE.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I NEED THE GLOVES, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT:
THAT IS A NICE FISH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
SURE IS, LOOK AT THAT.
YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: ALL RIGHT,
PAY ATTENTION, REEL, REEL, REEL.
REEL, REEL, REEL, REEL,
REEL, REEL, REEL, REEL.
KEEP AN EYE ON THAT DRAG,
MAKE SURE IT'S
NOT ABOVE SIX, OKAY?
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH, YEAH, HE'S BIG.
PAUL HEBERT: HE'S
NOT LITTLE, HE'S BIG.
TURN THE ROD TOWARDS HIM.
YOU GOT TO LEARN TO TURN
THE ROD TO THE RIGHT.
THERE YOU GO.
BECAUSE THAT'S WHICH WAY
HE'S SWIMMING, YOU KNOW?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: SEE HOW I
DON'T HAVE TO MOVE NOW IF
YOU KEEP IT TIGHT?
SEE WHERE HE'S GOING?
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
KEEP HIM COMING, RICK.
YOU DON'T WANNA STOP.
READY, NOW, NOW,
REEL, GO, GO, GO!
RICK SCHRAFFT: I AM.
HE JUST DOESN'T CHANGE.
I CAN'T WIN.
ALL I CAN DO IS JUST
STAY MENTALLY FOCUSED.
PAUL HEBERT: MAKE SURE YOUR
BELLY DOES NOT HIT THE DRAG.
IT'S BEEN DOING THAT.
RICK SCHRAFFT: SEE THAT?
THAT'S A PRIME
EXAMPLE RIGHT THERE.
PAUL HEBERT: JUST MAKE SURE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PRIME EXAMPLE.
PAUL HEBERT: KEEP YOUR
BELLY OFF THE REEL.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
MEANINGLESS (BLEEP).
PAUL HEBERT: KEEP REELIN'.
DON'T STOP.
REEL, REEL, REEL,
KEEP HIM TIGHT.
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
THIS IS GIANT TUNA FISHING.
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
REEL, REEL, REEL, KEEP GOING.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M NOT
TURNING ANY LINE, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: NO, ARE
YOU (BLEEP) KIDDING ME?
PAUL HEBERT: REEL, REEL,
REEL, KEEP HIM TIGHT.
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
THIS IS GIANT TUNA FISHING.
REEL, REEL, REEL, KEEP GOING.
RICK SCHRAFFT: NOT THIS TIME.
I'M NOT TURNING
ANY LINE, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: NO, ARE
YOU (BLEEP) KIDDING ME?
LISTEN, YOU GOT TO
TURN THE ROD AND REEL,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I UNDERSTAND, YES.
YES I DO, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: ALL RIGHT.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I'VE DONE THIS BEFORE.
THE REEL WASN'T REELING.
MAKE ME SEEM LIKE
A (BLEEP) IDIOT.
PAUL HEBERT: I DIDN'T
SAY YOU WERE A DUMMY.
I'M TRYING TO TEACH TO
GAIN ON A TUNA FISH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
ALL RIGHT, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN'T
BELIEVE WE CAN'T GET THIS FISH.
WE'RE JOKERS.
THE LEADER IS RIGHT THERE
AND THERE'S THE FISH.
THIS FISH IS READY,
HE'S HALF DEAD.
SEE HIM?
HE'S COMING UNDER THE BOAT.
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: REEL, REEL, REEL.
READY?
YOU GOT TO KEEP IT TIGHT, BUD.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PAUL,
I'M REELING FOR EVERYTHING
I CAN WHEN I CAN.
PAUL HEBERT: READY?
REEL.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I GOT
NO (BLEEP) LEVERAGE HERE.
PAUL HEBERT: GOT HIM,
GET A GAFF, GAFF, QUICKLY!
IT'S ON THE GUNWALE.
GIVE IT TO ME.
TAIL ROPE.
OH, RICK, REALLY, DUDE?
UNBELIEVABLE.
I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH A
(BLEEP) IN MY WHOLE LIFE.
TAIL ROPE.
BEFORE HE COMES
ALIVE AND KILLS ME,
PUT THAT TAIL ROPE ON HIM.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE HARD
THING ABOUT THIS, DUDE.
I REALLY DON'T.
JUST CLEAN HIM OFF,
JUST WRAP, WRAP, AROUND,
AROUND, AROUND HIM.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT
THE PROBLEM IS.
YOU GET NERVOUS OR SOMETHING
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
ALL RIGHT PAUL,
I (BLEEP) UP EVERYTHING.
PAUL HEBERT: NO, YOU
DIDN'T (BLEEP) EVERYTHING UP.
I JUST DON'T WANT YOU TO
GET HURT OR ME GET KILLED.
I DON'T WANNA DIE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M TRYING MY
BEST HERE AND YOU (BLEEP).
PAUL HEBERT: I KNOW YOU
GOT TO GO FASTER THOUGH.
I DON'T WANT TO GET
KILLED OVER A FISH.
I'D RATHER CUT
HIM OFF THAN DIE.
I DON'T WANNA GET
KILLED OVER A FISH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: JUST A
COMPLETE (BLEEP) JOKE.
HE'S YELLING HIGH,
HE'S HARD ON ME,
BUT WE GOT THE FISH
THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS.
ALL THIS SHOUTING, I AM
AT MY BREAKING POINT.
I DON'T WANT TO BE ON A
BOAT WHERE I'M JUST GETTING
YELLED AT ALL-DAY LONG.
PAUL HEBERT: PULL THE
TAIL, PULL, PULL THE TAIL.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I AM.
PAUL HEBERT: RICK HAS
MADE SOME MISTAKES SO DOES
EVERYBODY WHEN THEY START OFF.
91 INCHES, NICE FISH.
THAT'S JUST HOW YOU
LEARN TO DO THINGS.
RICK IS LISTENING
AND LEARNING.
THAT'S WHAT MATTERS.
ALL THESE THINGS
THAT WE CAN DIE AND.
RICK SCHRAFFT: THAT
LAST FIGHT RIGHT THERE,
I WAS READY TO JUMP
OVER AND SWIM HOME.
I FEEL LIKE I WENT NINE
ROUNDS WITH MIKE TYSON.
MIKE TYSON BEING CAPTAIN
PAUL, NOT THE FISH.
THE FISH WAS NOTHING.
PAUL HEBERT: PULL THE TAIL,
PULL, PULL THE TAIL!
RICK SCHRAFFT: I AM!
BRAD KRASOWSKI: IS
THAT HIM STILL YELLING?
MATT MATTSON: YEAH, HE
WAS SCREAMING AT RICK.
HE'S OVER THERE SWEARING.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: WHAT'S
HE SWEARING ABOUT?
MATT MATTSON: I DON'T
KNOW, "GRAB THE (BLEEP)"
WHERE'S, I DON'T KNOW,
"WHERE'S THIS, WHERE THAT?"
HE'S JUST FRENZYING OUT.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: I'D LIKE TO
HAVE A TAPE RECORDER AND HEAR
WHAT'S GOING ON
WITH RICK AND HIM.
PAUL'S LIKE THE PENGUIN
WHEN YOU HEAR HIS VOICE.
[QUACKING]
LIKE KIND OF QUACKING,
WE CAN HEAR HIM YELLING AT
RICK OVER THERE.
HE'S LUCKY THAT RICK
DOESN'T TAKE A SWIPE AT HIM.
THE RUMOR ON THE DOCK IS
RICK'S STARTING TO BREAK
A LITTLE BIT.
MATT MATTSON:
I KNOW RICK WELL.
HE'S A GENTLE GIANT.
HE'S GONNA TAKE EVERYTHING
PAUL GIVES HIM UNTIL HE GETS
FED UP AND LEAVES THE BOAT.
IF PAUL'S NOT CAREFUL,
HE'S GONNA LOSE HIM.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
HE CAN BE A TYRANT.
HE'S A LITTLE SCHITZO
YOU KNOW, HE'S A LITTLE,
HE'S GOT A, HE'S GOT OCD, ADD.
MATT MATTSON: ACD.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: OH, WHATEVER
THE LETTERS ARE, ABC.
LAST YEAR WHEN I WAS
FISHING WITH PAUL,
I WAS PUTTING UP
WITH THE SAME CRAP.
FOR PAUL'S SAKE, I HOPE
RICK HAS ENOUGH PATIENCE
TO FISH WITH HIM
THE REST OF THE SEASON.
AND A LOT OF THESE
GROWN MEN LIKE RICK,
THEY CAN'T DEAL WITH IT.
THEY JUST GO TO THE DOCK
AND THEY TAKE THEIR BAG AND
THEY NEVER COME BACK.
[FLUSH]
[CHUCKLING]
SANDRO MANIACI: THAT'S QUITE
THE STICKER ON THE TOILET.
DAVE CARRARO: YOU LIKE THAT?
GEORDIE.
GEORDIE SOUSA: WHAT'S UP?
SANDRO MANIACI:
COME CHECK THE TOILET OUT.
GEORDIE SOUSA:
WHAT'D, YOU BREAK IT?
SANDRO MANIACI: NO.
DAVE CARRARO: BREAK IT?
I FIXED IT.
GEORDIE SOUSA: YOU FIXED IT?
HOW'D YOU FIX IT?
SANDRO MANIACI: HE PUT
WHAT DESERVED, BELONGS THERE.
GEORDIE SOUSA: OH!
DAVE CARRARO: THAT WAS
THE BEST $5 I'VE EVER SPENT.
GEORDIE SOUSA: THAT'S AWESOME.
SANDRO MANIACI: THAT'S FUNNY.
DAVE CARRARO: TYLER IS JUST
OBSESSED WITH THE TUNA DOT COM
AND SANDRO AND GEORDIE
CATCHING FIVE TUNA WITHOUT ME.
SANDRO MANIACI: HA, DESERVES
TO BE RIGHT DOWN THE DRAIN.
DAVE CARRARO: AND NOW,
EVERY TIME YOU TAKE A DUMP,
YOU CAN THINK OF TYLER.
GEORDIE SOUSA: FEEL
BETTER ABOUT YOURSELF.
DAVE CARRARO: THESE ARE
MY GUYS, THIS IS MY BOAT.
BOTTOM LINE IS I CAUGHT
FIVE MORE FISH THAN ANY OF
THE OTHER BOATS DID.
WE'RE ON TOP OF THE FLEET.
I'M SURE WE'RE GONNA STAY
THERE ALL THE WAY TO THE END.
HE WON'T GO AWAY.
SANDRO MANIACI: NUISANCE.
YEAH, HE WON'T GO AWAY.
GEORDIE SOUSA: HE'S LIKE
A ZIT ON THE ASS OF LIFE.
SANDRO MANIACI:
HE'S LIKE THESE FLIES.
HE DESERVES EVERY
BIT OF WHAT HE GETS.
TJ OTT: WE'VE GOT TO GET
RIGHT BACK OUT THERE.

JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
THAT'S A NICE-LOOKING FISH.
TJ OTT: YEAH, IT IS.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:

TJ OTT: WHAT DO WE GOT FOR

SCOTT: YOU HAVE
307 POUNDS DRESSED.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
ALL RIGHT, THERE YOU GO.
TJ OTT: ALL RIGHT,

CORE SAMPLE, CHECK HIM OUT,
SEE WHAT WE GOT?
SCOTT: ABSOLUTELY.
TJ OTT: FOR A
HIGH-QUALITY FISH,
THE BUYER'S LOOKING FOR A
GREAT CORE, BEAUTIFUL COLOR,
AND TONS OF FAT.
WE'RE KEEPING OUR
FINGERS CROSSED THAT THIS
FISH HAS IT ALL.
THERE WE GO, SCOTT-SO.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, MAN?
SCOTT: WELL, IT'S GOT
SOME GOOD FAT IN IT.
TJ OTT: YOU LIKING IT,
YOU LIKING IT SCOTT-SO?
SCOTT: GREASY FISH.
CORE'S A LITTLE DARK.
NOT TOO BAD THOUGH.
TJ OTT: NICE.
SCOTT: WELL, WE
CAN GET YOU GUYS.
GOT YOU GUYS $17 A POUND.
TJ OTT: OOH.
SOLD TO SCOTT-SO.
PA-POW!
ALL RIGHT BROTHER,
THANK YOU SCOTT-SO,
ALWAYS A PLEASURE.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
SCOTT-SO, YOU'RE THE MAN.
I LOVE YOU, BUDDY.
TJ OTT: WE'RE GONNA HEAD
RIGHT BACK OUT, BROTHER, OKAY?
SCOTT: COOL, OKAY.
TJ OTT: SEE YOU SOON.
THIS IS A GREAT FISH TO
START OFF THE SECOND HALF
OF OUR SEASON.
WE'RE GONNA HEAD RIGHT
BACK OUT AND HOPEFULLY
KEEP IT ROLLING.
♪ ♪
SANDRO MANIACI: GONNA BE
A HOT ONE OUT THERE TODAY.
THE SUN IS HOT OUT THERE.
VERY HOT OUT THERE.
DAVE CARRARO: THERE'S
NO WAY THAT I COULD DEAL
WITHOUT AIR CONDITIONING.
WE'RE INTO THE HEART
OF THE SUMMER NOW HALFWAY
THROUGH THE SEASON.
AND THERE ARE DAYS OUT HERE
THAT ARE JUST PLAIN MISERABLE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
GOSH, IT'S HOT OUT HERE.
I'M GONNA GO UP IN
THE FRONT, DUDE.
SWEATING MY (BLEEP) OFF TODAY.
IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE SUMMER,
THE SUN IS GLARING
OFF THE OCEAN,
IT'S LIKE A DESERT.
IT'S JUST ANOTHER OBSTACLE
TRYING TO GET YOU TO GO IN.
THIS IS WHERE
YOU WANT TO LAY.
MATT MATTSON: ENJOY IT,
CAP, YOU DESERVE IT.
CAP'S UP
THERE TAKING A REST.
HE FOUND SOME GOOD
PIECE OF SHADE,
WHICH IS VERY HARD
TO COME BY OUT HERE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING AND
IF YOU'RE NOT PREPARED TO
DEAL WITH EVERY OBSTACLE,
YOU WILL JUST GO IN AND
YOU'LL QUIT TUNA FISHING.
TJ OTT: OH, THIS IS NOT FUN.
MIKE OTT: IT'S BETTER
THAN BEING AT THE DOCK.
TJ OTT: I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS
BETTER THAN BEING AT THE DOCK.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
IT'S THE DEAD MIDDLE OF THE
SUMMER RIGHT NOW,
IT'S BLAZING HOT.
THESE LONG DAYS THAT SEEM
EVEN LONGER BECAUSE YOU CAN'T
GET OUT OF THE HEAT
AND THERE'S NOWHERE TO GO.
MIKE OTT: GO AHEAD, GO AHEAD.
IT'S OKAY, COME ON, GO RELAX.
TJ OTT: WE'RE A LITTLE SPOILED
ON THE HOT TUNA BECAUSE
WE HAVE A GREAT AIR
CONDITIONER DOWN BELOW DECK.
MIKE OTT: THE CAPTAIN
AND THE DOGS ARE RESTING.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
IN THE ICY COLD AC.
MIKE OTT: HE'S IN HEAVEN.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI: OH.
IT IS HOT (BLEEP) OUTSIDE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WE NEED
TO SHUT THE DOOR AND TURN
ON THE AIR CONDITIONING.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: RIGHT
NOW, WE'RE COOKING HOTDOGS AND
RIBS, WE GOT PORK ON PORK.
THAT'S HOW WE DO IT.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
I BELIEVE IN THE PORK.
THIS PART OF THE SEASON JUST
FEELS LIKE IT'S DRAGGING ON.
AND THIS MOOD HITS
EVERYBODY EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
IT'S HARD AND IT'S ALL
ABOUT STAYING POWER.
YOU GOT TO STAY ON THE WATER,
YOU JUST GOT TO KEEP GRINDING
AND DON'T STOP AND JUST
PUSH YOURSELF THROUGH IT.
YOU GOT TO REMEMBER, IT'S
A MARATHON, NOT A SPRINT.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: PORK'S
ALWAYS KEY ON A TUNA BOAT SO
WE'RE JUST TRYING TO STAY
EXTRA PORKY AND HOPEFULLY
THAT'LL CHANGE OUR DAY AROUND.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WHEN
IT'S HOT OUT HERE LIKE THIS,
IT'S BRUTAL.
WHAT ARE WE DOING OUT HERE?
THIS SUCKS.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
IT'S GETTING HOT OUT THERE.
PAUL HEBERT: YOU SHOULD BE
WEARING THESE SHIRTS, DUDE.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I LIKE THESE, I'M GOOD.
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH, BUT
THESE ARE, THEY BREATHE,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT'S WHAT
THEY'RE FOR, WICKING SHIRTS.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
WICKING, THEY'RE CALLED?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH,
SPORTS SHIRTS.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PAUL HAS
AN OPINION ABOUT EVERYTHING
ON THIS BOAT.
TODAY IN THIS HEAT,
IT'S ABOUT WHAT KIND OF
T-SHIRT I SHOULD BE WEARING.
PAUL HEBERT: THEY MADE
THEM FOR GUYS WHO REEL IN
GIANT BLUEFIN TUNA.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT'S
WHAT THEY MADE THEM FOR.
ALL'S I KNOW IS THIS
IS THE (BLEEP) COOLEST
LITTLE BOAT AROUND.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M NOT
SURE HOW MUCH MORE OF THIS
I CAN TAKE.
I'M JUST, I'M EXHAUSTED.
LET'S FOCUS ON FISHING NOT
WHAT WE'RE WEARING FOR SHIRTS.
DAVE MARCIANO: HOT TODAY.
IT'S HOT.
THERE'S NO WIND AT ALL.
WE COOL OFF A LITTLE.
OH.
JAY MUENZNER: DAMN,
LOOK AT THOSE LEGS.
WHEN'S THE LAST TIME
THEY'VE SEEN DAYLIGHT, 1922?
DAVE MARCIANO: USUALLY, IT'S
A LITTLE COOLER ON THE OCEAN.
WE GOT JUST ENOUGH
ICE TO HANDLE IT IF WE CAN
CATCH 'EM TODAY.
IT'S BEEN BRUTAL OUT HERE.
DAVE MARCIANO: THIS REALLY
IS ONE OF THE HOTTEST WEATHER
SEASONS I CAN
RECALL EVER FISHING.
I'M NOT REALLY SURE IF THE
HEAT WILL AFFECT THE WAY THE
FISHING IS, BUT I'LL TELL
YOU, IF YOU HOOK ONE IN THIS
WEATHER YOU'RE CERTAINLY
GONNA WORK UP A SWEAT.
[CLICKING]
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
JAY MUENZNER:
WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON!
THAT'S A FISH, THAT'S A FISH!
DAVE MARCIANO:
I DIDN'T EVEN MARK 'EM,
I WAS SITTING RIGHT HERE.
JAY MUENZNER:
GOT 'EM ON, BABY.
GOT 'EM ON.
SCREAMING LINE TOO,
SCREAMING LINE.
DAVE MARCIANO: NICE AND EASY
NOW, DON'T DESTROY YOURSELF.
JAY MUENZNER: DID YOU SEE HIM?
DAVE MARCIANO: NO.
JAY MUENZNER: THAT'S A FISH!
THAT'S A SCREAMER!
JAY MUENZNER:
GOT 'EM ON, BABY.
GOT 'EM ON.
DID YOU SEE HIM?
DAVE MARCIANO: NO.
JAY MUENZNER: THAT'S A FISH!
THAT'S A SCREAMER!
THIS IS GOOD FISHING.
GOOD FISHING, BENT RODS,
AND TUNA, AND NO BOATS FOREVER.
HOPEFULLY WE CAN
GET A DART ON HIM AND
GET A TAIL STRAP ON HIM.
DAVE MARCIANO: AFTER NOT
CATCHING A FISH IN ABOUT A
MONTH, LANDING THIS TUNA COULD
START OUR SECOND HALF OF THE
SEASON OFF WITH A BANG.
JAY MUENZNER: GOT 'EM ON.
DAVE MARCIANO: LET'S
SEE IF WE GET HIM, GUYS.
THIS IS GREAT WE'RE
TOTALLY PSYCHED;
THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS.
JAY MUENZNER: WAIT
FOR HIM TO COME UP.
HE'S GONNA COME UP AT YOU.
HERE HE COMES, HERE
HE COMES, GO, GO, GO.
LITERALLY EVERYBODY ON
THE BOAT'S FIGHTING THE
FISH RIGHT NOW.
JOE'S ON THE ROD,
DAVE'S DRIVING THE BOAT,
I'M KEEPING THE LINE
AWAY FROM THE HULL.
IF THAT LINE TOUCHES THE
HULL, IT COULD BE OVER,
IT'S A TEAM WHO BRINGS THIS
FISH IN THE BOAT AND IT'S A
TEAM IF WE LOSE IT.
I GOT YOU, JOEY.
JOE MARCIANO: OKAY.
JAY MUENZNER: FORWARD.
TAG YOU'RE IN.
DAVE MARCIANO: STARBOARD,
STARBOARD, STARBOARD.
KICK IT, KICK IT,
KICK IT, THERE HE IS.
DEEP COLOR.
JOE MARCIANO:
WOW, THERE HE IS.
DAVE MARCIANO:
EASY, JAY, EASY.
JAY MUENZNER: MONSTER.
JOE MARCIANO: EASY.
JAY MUENZNER: HERE HE
COMES, HERE HE COMES.
THAT'S NOT IN GOOD.
ROD, ROD, GET ON THE ROD, JOE.
DAVE MARCIANO: ATTABOY, WE'RE
JUST GONNA PULL HIM UP SLOW.
JAY MUENZNER: HERE HE COMES.
DAVE MARCIANO: GET
THE LONG GAFF READY.
JAY MUENZNER:
I GOT HIM RIGHT HERE.
DAVE MARCIANO: JUST
WATCH MY HARPOON LINE.
JUST GO EASY.
DO NOTHING CRAZY NOW.
EASY JOE, EASY, EASY NOW.
EASY NOW, EASY NOW.
JAY MUENZNER: HE'S
RIGHT UNDER THE SURFACE.
DAVE MARCIANO: GET A GOOD
SHOT DON'T DO NOTHING CRAZY,
THERE YOU GO.
YOU GOT A PIECE OF HIM?
JAY MUENZNER: I GOT HIM,
I GOT HIM GOOD.
JOE MARCIANO:
WHAT SIDE, WHAT SIDE?
JAY MUENZNER: LEFT.
GOOD JOB, BOYS.
DAVE MARCIANO:
ALL RIGHT, BOYS.
JOE MARCIANO: LET'S GET IT.
ANOTHER ONE FOR THE MERCH.
JAY MUENZNER:
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
DAVE MARCIANO: BOOM.
GET HIM ON THAT STRAP.
JAY MUENZNER:
UP HIGHER, UP HIGHER.
DAVE MARCIANO: ALL RIGHT.
JAY MUENZNER: YEAH,
IT'S A NICE ONE, NICE FAT ONE.
GOOD JOB,
GOOD JOB JOE, CONGRATS.
DAVE MARCIANO: WE MAY HAVE
HALF THE SEASON BEHIND US BUT
IT AIN'T OVER FOR
THE HARD MERCH.
THE BEST TEAMS PICK UP
THE PIECES AND SCORE BIG
IN THE SECOND HALF.
JAY MUENZNER:
IT'S A NICE FISH.
WE'RE GONNA MEASURE HIM.
JOE AND JAY: 89.
DAVE MARCIANO: DEFINITELY
NOT THE LONGEST FISH WE'VE
CAUGHT SO FAR, BUT IT'S
DEFINITELY THE FATTEST ONE
WE'VE CAUGHT THIS SEASON.
THIS ONE'S GONNA BE
WORTH GOOD MONEY.
JAY MUENZNER: HEY,
LET'S HAVE A CELEBRATION.
DAVE MARCIANO: YEAH, YEAH,
I CAN GO FOR ONE OF THOSE.
JAY MUENZNER:
ICE CREAM ON THE BOAT.
DAVE MARCIANO: CREAM-SICLE.
THERE'S NOTHING LIKE AN
ICE-COLD TREAT AFTER FIGHTING
A MONSTER ON A HOT DAY.
IT'S FISHING WEATHER.
THE ONLY WEATHER THAT
MATTERS IS WHETHER YOU
NEED IT OR NOT BAD ENOUGH.
AND FISHING LIKE
THIS WE NEED IT.
PAUL HEBERT: YOU NEVER
GIVE A LINE TO ANYONE
UNTIL IT'S READY.
RICK SCHRAFFT: ALL RIGHT,
YOU WANT ME TO LET IT GO?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH [INAUDIBLE].
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN'T MOVE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL DID NOT STOP NITPICKING
OR YELLING THIS WHOLE TRIP
EVEN AFTER WE LANDED A FISH.
AFTER THIS TRIP,
I'M GONNA HAVE TO DECIDE
IF I'M GONNA GET
BACK ON THIS BOAT.
HEY, PJ.
PJ: WICKED RICK.
PAUL HEBERT: WATCH OUT.
I GOT TO GO FORWARD
MORE LET OFF ON THE,
WHAT IS THE PROBLEM, MAN?
SEE WE NEED SOMEWHERE
TO TIE HERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: SCOTTY, CAN
YOU PULL THAT INTO THAT POLE?
PAUL HEBERT: IS THERE ANYBODY
THAT CAN GRAB THE LINE?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH,
I GOT SCOTTY RIGHT HERE.
PAUL HEBERT: ANYONE AT ALL?
DOES ANYONE,
CAN ANYONE GRAB IT?
WATCH MY STERN.
SCOTTY: HE'S GOOD.
PAUL HEBERT: YOU GOT TO
GET PLACES TO TIE UP HERE
OR I WON'T COME HERE.
YOU GOT TO PULL IN HERE.
LET GO, LET GO,
JIMMY, PULL IN.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I CAN'T
BELIEVE THE WAY PAUL IS
TREATING THESE GUYS.
TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
PAUL HEBERT: JUST LIKE THIS.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'VE HAD
ABOUT AS MUCH AS I CAN TAKE.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT WAY
IT KEEPS THE BOAT IN,
YOU DON'T EVEN NEED THAT.
ALL RIGHT, JIMMY.
PJ: YOU READY?
RICK SCHRAFFT: OH YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: WHAT DO YOU
GOT FOR WEIGHT ON THAT ONE?
PJ: 280 POUNDS, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: NICE SIZE.
ALMOST 300 DRESSED.
PJ: NICE SIZE.
LET'S SEE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.
NICE LOOKING FISH, GUYS.
YOU KNOW THE CORE
COLOR IS REALLY GOOD.
YOU GUYS ARE TAKING
GOOD CARE OF THESE FISH.
IT'S GOT A LITTLE SKIN FAT
NOT AS MUCH AS A COUPLE OF THE
OTHER ONES BUT YOU
KNOW NICE TEXTURE HERE,
THIS ONE HERE...
$13 A POUND.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
WE'LL TAKE THAT.
PAUL HEBERT: WE'LL TAKE IT.
PJ: NICE SIZE,
NICE LITTLE FISH.
GO GET 'EM GUYS.
PAUL HEBERT: THANK YOU, PJ.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PJ,
THANKS A LOT BROTHER.
PJ: GOOD SEEING YOU, RICK.
PAUL HEBERT:
THEY'RE ADDING UP.
THEY'RE ADDING UP.
NOT THE HIGHEST PRICED FISH,
BUT I'M GLAD WE GOT ONE,
AND RICK IS LISTENING
AND LEARNING TO WHAT
I HAVE TO SAY.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YOU WANT ME TO LET IT GO?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH JUST TOSS IT TO ME.
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN'T MOVE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL HEBERT:
THROW IT BACK ON THE BOAT.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH, I GOT IT.
OKAY (BLEEP).
THIS IS EMBARRASSING;
HE'S OUT OF CONTROL.
I'VE KNOWN PAUL FOR
10 YEARS AS A FRIEND,
NEVER HAD TO WORK FOR HIM.
IT SUCKS, IT'S DIFFICULT.
IT HASN'T BEEN EASY.
PAUL HEBERT: I'VE KNOWN
RICK FOR A LONG TIME.
I'VE NEVER FISHED WITH
A GUY THAT WANTED TO LEARN
SO MUCH SO BAD.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
HEY HOW YOU DOING?
WE JUST GOT IN FROM A TRIP
AND I'M NOT DOING SO WELL.
I KIND OF HAD A
ROUGH DAY WITH,
OUT ON THE BOAT WITH PAULIE.
PAUL HEBERT: I WAS A LITTLE
FIRM WITH HIM BUT I WANT HIM
TO BE THE BEST HE CAN BE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: THINGS GOT
A LITTLE DICEY AND THEN,
YOU KNOW, HE KIND OF JUST, A
NEW PAUL CAME OUT THAT I HAVE,
I HAVE NEVER
EXPERIENCED BEFORE.
PAUL HEBERT: HE HAD SOME
PROBLEMS ON THE ROD AND REEL
BECAUSE HE WAS SKITTISH.
HE'S FISHED WITH PEOPLE THAT
WOULD YELL AT HIM AND DO
CERTAIN THINGS AND
HE WOULDN'T GET IT.
BUT HE GETS IT, AND
HE'S GOOD, HE'S GOT IT.
HE LOVES FISHING,
HE'S HAPPY, HE'S FUN.
RICK SCHRAFFT: IS THIS WHAT
IT'S GONNA BE LIKE EVERY TIME
WE GO FISHING OR YOU KNOW
IS IT GONNA GET BETTER?
PAUL HEBERT: MAKES
US AS A TEAM BETTER,
BECAUSE HE UNDERSTANDS
WHY I WAS FIRM WITH HIM AND
HE ACTUALLY THANKED ME.
RICK SCHRAFFT: TO BE HONEST
I WAS READY TO JUMP OFF
THE BOAT AND SWIM BACK TO
GLOUCESTER 70 MILES THAT'S HOW,
THAT'S HOW BAD
I FELT AT ONE POINT.
PAUL HEBERT: GOOD MAN,
I'M VERY LUCKY TO HAVE HIM.
RICK SCHRAFFT: IF THIS IS
THE WAY IT'S GONNA CONTINUE
I MIGHT, MAYBE I MADE A BAD
CHOICE BY FISHING WITH PAUL.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
WE NEED A BITE.
COME ON, MAN.
WE'VE ONLY GOT TWO FISH SO
FAR LESS THAN EVERYONE ELSE
IN THE FLEET.
NOW AT THE HALFWAY POINT, WE
NEED TO START CATCHING A FISH,
IF I'M GONNA SAVE MY SEASON.
[BEEPING]
THERE'S A FISH RIGHT THERE.
MATT MATTSON: FAT ONE?
BRAD KRASOWSKI: YEAH,
THAT'S AN 80-INCHER.
THAT'S OUR DOWN LINE.
[BEEPING]
MATT MATTSON: FISH
HAWK NEEDS ITS TURN.
I'M DYING FOR
THIS ROD TO GO OFF.
[BEEPING]
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON, WE'RE
ON BRAD, WE'RE HOOKED UP.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: LET IT RUN,
BACK OFF ON THAT DRAG.
WATCH YOURSELF,
WATCH YOURSELF.
WE'RE GONNA REEL THESE IN
AND GET THEM OUT OF THE WAY.
MATT MATTSON: RIGHT
NOW WE'RE HOOKED UP.
WE'RE JUST TRYING TO GET
THESE LINES IN SO WE COULD
GO FIGHT THE FISH.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: THIS TUNA
RAN STRAIGHT AHEAD OF OUR
BOAT BUT FIGHTING A
FISH ON THE BOW IS GREAT.
REEL THE FAR ONES, I
GOT THE CLOSE ONES.
A FISH UP FRONT IS AWAY
FROM ALL OUR OTHER GEAR AND
IT'S EASIER TO CHASE DOWN.
WE GOT A NICE TUNA ON,
WE'RE PULLING THESE IN,
THEN WE'RE GONNA GO FIGHT HIM.
MATT MATTSON: I GOT TO
GET UP THERE, YOU GOT THIS?
BRAD KRASOWSKI: YEAH.
MATT MATTSON:
THAT'S A REAL ONE.
FINALLY GOT A BITE HERE.
GET HIM IN THIS
NICE BOW HOLDER,
WE'RE RUNNING UP ON HIM.
FEELING LIKE HE'S
COMING UP NICE AND EASY.
WE GOT HIM UP AND DOWN HERE.
JUST REMAINING
TIGHT ON THE FISH.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: JUST BE
CAREFUL UP THERE, MATT,
DON'T FALL.
IF HE FALLS OFF ANYTHING
COULD HAPPEN, THAT'S NOT GOOD.
HOLD ON UP THERE.
MATT MATTSON:
FEELS LIKE A GOOD FISH;
WE'RE CLOSE TO OUR
ANCHOR I DON'T LIKE THAT.
HOLD ON, SLOW DOWN, BRAD.
GO FORWARD LEFT.
HOLD UP, BRAD.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: BE CAREFUL.
[SNAP]
MATT MATTSON:
OH, WE LOST HIM.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: KEEP REELING
HE MIGHT NOT BE GONE.
MATT MATTSON: NO, HE'S
GONE, I FEEL HIM HE'S GONE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: DAMMIT.
MATT MATTSON:
WE BROKE HIM OFF.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: OH MY GOD.
MATT MATTSON: THAT'S
FRUSTRATING AFTER SITTING HERE,
YOU FINALLY
HOOK UP, YOU FIGHT HIM,
EVERYTHING'S GOING GOOD
AND YOU BUST HIM OFF.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
EVERY LOSS HURTS A
LITTLE MORE AS
THE SEASON GOES ON.
WE JUST GOT TO FIND A WAY
TO START LANDING MORE FISH.
MATT MATTSON:
THAT SUCKS, SORRY, CAP.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: OH WELL,
WE'RE HAVING
A TOUGH STRETCH, MAN.
MATT MATTSON:
WE'RE HAVING A TOUGH GO.
YOU KNOW TUNA SEASON
COMES TO AN END FAST.
BRAD'S GOT BILLS TO PAY.
I GOT BILLS TO PAY.
WE GOT TO START MAKING
SOME MONEY, NOW.
AT LEAST WE GOT
A BITE YOU KNOW;
AT LEAST WE KNOW
OUR BAITS LOOK GOOD.
MAYBE THE LUCK WILL CHANGE
HERE AND WE'LL GET HIM.
DAVE MARCIANO: WE'VE GOT OUR
FIRST FISH IN ABOUT A MONTH.
HOPEFULLY THIS IS THE FIRST
OF MANY FOR OUR SECOND HALF
OF THE SEASON.
SCOTT: WHAT'S GOING ON, GUYS?
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TODAY?
JAY MUENZNER:
THIS ONE'S A NICE ONE.
DAVE MARCIANO: LET'S GET HIM
UP THERE AND SEE WHAT YOU THINK.
SCOTT: ALL RIGHT.
JAY MUENZNER: UP!
DAVE MARCIANO:
WHAT'S IT SAY THERE, SCOTTY?
SCOTT: YOU GOT
418 POUNDS DRESSED.
JAY MUENZNER: NICE.
DAVE MARCIANO: ALL RIGHT,
SCOTTY WE'RE GONNA COME UP AND
CHECK IT OUT.
SCOTT: ALL RIGHT.
DAVE MARCIANO: SO FAR THIS
SEASON BOATS HAVE GOTTEN
UP TO 22 BUCKS A POUND
FOR A GREAT FISH.
AND AS LITTLE AS
$7 A POUND FOR A BAD ONE.
I'M JUST HOPING
THIS ONE ISN'T A DUD.
JAY MUENZNER:
ALL RIGHT, SHOW US THE MEAT.
OH, THAT'S NOT BAD.
SCOTT: YEAH,
NOT MUCH FAT IN IT.
DAVE MARCIANO: YEAH.
SCOTT: YOU KNOW
IT'S DECENT COLOR.
GREASY FISH.
GOOD SIZE TOO.
DAVE MARCIANO: YUP, YUP.
SCOTT: EASY TO SHIP YOU KNOW.
SO, WE CAN GET YOU GUYS,
I CAN DO $14 A POUND.
JAY MUENZNER: SWEET, PERFECT.
DAVE MARCIANO: OKAY,
BETTER, WE'RE GOING THE
RIGHT DIRECTION
A LITTLE AT A TIME.
JAY MUENZNER:
SLOWLY BUT SURELY.
DAVE MARCIANO:
ALL RIGHT MAN, THANK YOU.
HOPEFULLY WE'LL SEE YOU
REAL SOON, MAN THANK YOU.
JAY MUENZNER: THANKS SCOTTY.
WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
SCOTT: THANK YOU,
GOOD SEEING YOU.
SEE YOU LATER.
DAVE MARCIANO: SIX GRAND
PAYDAY IS JUST WHAT WE NEED
TO KICK OFF OUR SECOND
HALF OF THE SEASON.
LET'S GET BACK OUT THERE
AND CATCH ANOTHER ONE.
[BEEPING]
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WE
JUST MARKED A HERD OF THEM.
DEFINITELY MARKED A COUPLE.
YOU KNOW THIS IS A MARK
STREAKING OUT OF THE BAIT.
THIS IS A MARK STREAKING
OUT OF THE BAIT.
THERE'S SOME FISH
AROUND WE'RE COMING UP
ON THE TIDE CHANGE.
THIS IS THE GO TIME.
THIS IS WHEN WE'RE
GONNA GET OUR BITE.
ALL SEASON LONG DUFFY AND I
HAVE BEEN DOING OUR OWN THING
AND IT'S BEEN WORKING GREAT.
THERE'S NO REASON WHY WE
SHOULDN'T KEEP IT UP FOR THE
SECOND HALF AND CLIMB
OURSELVES BACK TO THE
TOP OF THE FLEET.
KEEP PUTTING PRESSURE
ON THE FLEET,
KEEP EVERYONE FREAKING
SCROUNGING AROUND.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
DOT COM'S OUT HERE.
[BEEPING]
SANDRO MANIACI: WE JUST
MARKED A PAIR AT LIKE, 50.
DAVE CARRARO: REALLY?
WE KNOW EVERYBODY WANTS
TO GET A JUMP ON US THE
SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON,
ESPECIALLY TYLER.
WE HAVE TO KEEP PRODUCING
IF WE'RE GONNA STAY ON TOP.
I WANT TO SEE THAT
DOWN ROD BITE.
SANDRO MANIACI:

TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
NICE TO SEE MARKS.
WE JUST GOT TO WAIT OUR TURN.
OUR TURN WILL COME.
GEORDIE SOUSA: IT'S AWESOME.
[BEEPING]

TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: DOT COM IS
OVER HERE, WE'RE LIKE FOCUSED.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:

TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: I KNOW
IT'S LIKE TOO NERVE WRACKING.
WE'RE JUST TRYING SO
HARD JUST TO DIAL IN,
CATCH AS MANY FISH
AS POSSIBLE AND HAVE NO
MISTAKES THIS YEAR.
JUST DOING OUR OWN PROGRAM.
MINDING OUR OWN BUSINESS,
KEEPING OUR MOUTH SHUT,
BEING HUMBLE.
JUST BEING STRAIGHT
UP AND DOWN ON A BLUEFIN.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT.
DAVE CARRARO: LOOK WHO'S

GEORDIE SOUSA: GO.
SANDRO MANIACI:

DAVE CARRARO:

THIS FISH IS
EVERY BIT OF 500, 600.
SANDRO MANIACI: THERE HE IS.
CRAZY FISH MAN,

DAVE CARRARO: GONNA

MAN THAT'S AWESOME.
GEORDIE SOUSA: THAT'S
THE REAL DEAL THERE.
DAVE CARRARO: WE STARTED
THE WEEK AS THE TOP BOAT AND
WITH A FISH LIKE THIS I'M
SURE WE'RE GONNA STAY THERE.
THIS ONE IS GONNA KEEP OUR
MOMENTUM ROLLING INTO THE
SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON
ALL THE WAY TO THE END.
YEAH, BABY.
SANDRO MANIACI: WOW.
DAVE CARRARO: THAT'S

TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: TWO, BABY.
WE'RE IN THE GAME DUDE.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
PINWHEEL IN IT.
ALL RIGHT, WHOO!
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
IT'S A BEAUTIFUL FISH.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: 93.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WOW,
THIS IS A GOOD LOOKING
93-INCHER, MAN.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: YEAH,
MAN HE'S NICE AND ROUND.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: THIS FISH
IS GONNA BE A GIANT PAYCHECK AND
IT'S A GREAT WAY TO
LAUNCH US INTO THE
SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE A GOOD YEAR,
WE JUST GOT TO KEEP PUTTING
THEM OUT, STAY CALM,
STAY FOCUSED,
AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE A LOT
MORE TAILS DRAGGING BEHIND THE
BACK OF THE WHEEL THIS YEAR.
IT'S SO MUCH FUN
TO CATCH A TUNA.
YOU KNOW WE HAVE
A LOT OF STRESS.
THERE'S A LOT OF WAITING,
THERE'S A LOT OF PAIN AND
SUFFERING AND ROTTING AT SEA
THAT GOES INTO CATCHING THE
TUNAS, BUT WHEN YOU FINALLY
CATCH A TUNA, I DON'T KNOW,
THERE'S NO GREATER REWARD
BECAUSE ALL YOUR HARD WORK
CAME INTO DOING IT.
THIS IS WHAT
WE'RE OUT HERE FOR.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
AIN'T NO REST FOR THE WICKED.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: I THINK
WE GOT THE BIGGEST FISH
OF THE SEASON.
WE GOT A BEAUTIFUL
FISH FOR YOU, GUT.
GUT: WELL,
WE'LL CHECK HIM OUT.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: LOOK AT
THAT ONE, THAT'S A GOOD ONE.
GUT: BIG FISH.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
YEAH, THAT'S A BIG BOY.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: IT'S ALL
DOLLAR SIGNS ON THE PINWHEEL.
WHAT DO YOU GOT FOR
A DRESS WEIGHT, BUD?
GUT: 663.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: WOW.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: BOOM,
THAT'S NICE BABY, WHOO!
GUT: BIG BOY.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: ALL RIGHT,
GUT, LET'S SEE WHAT WE GOT.
GUT: IT'S GOT A
GOOD-LOOKING CORE.
NICE BRIGHT CORE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
BEAUTIFUL FISH.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: AWESOME.
GUT: COLOR'S NICE,
NICE COLOR, GOOD SHAPE.
THAT'S A NICE
FISH RIGHT THERE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WHAT
ARE YOU GONNA GIVE ME, GUT?
COME ON, MAKE ME HAPPY.
GUT: FOR THIS ONE, HMM...
$20 A POUND.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: OH YES,
THAT'S WHY I STAY WITH MY BOY.
GUT: THAT'S A NICE FISH,
THAT'S A NICE FISH.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
THANK YOU, GUT.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
THANK YOU, GUT.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: THIS IS
THE BIGGEST PAYDAY ONE FISH
HAS GOTTEN ALL SEASON.
A GREAT WAY TO CHARGE INTO
THE SECOND HALF OF THE YEAR.
SEE YA LATER, BUD.
SEND ME A CHECK.
BUBBA: WHAT'S UP, GUYS?
WHAT'D YOU CATCH TODAY?
GEORDIE SOUSA:
WHAT'S GOING ON?
DAVE CARRARO: BUBBA,
WE GOT ONE FOR YOU.
BUBBA: ONE'S BETTER THAN NONE.
DAVE CARRARO: YEAH, I'LL
TAKE IT, IT'S A GOOD FISH.
BUBBA: ALL RIGHT.
DAVE CARRARO: LET'S GET HIM
UP, WE WANNA GET BACK OUT.
BUBBA: LET'S DO IT.
DAVE CARRARO: WHAT'S
THE DRESS WEIGH, BUBBA?
BUBBA: 297 POUNDS DRESSED.
DAVE CARRARO:
NOT 300, BUT 297?
BUBBA: 297.
GEORDIE SOUSA: PULL ON IT A
LITTLE BIT MAKE IT 300 EVEN.
BUBBA: I COULD STUFF
SOME ICE IN IT FOR YOU.
DAVE CARRARO: WE'LL TAKE IT.
WE'RE COMING UP.
BUBBA: ALL RIGHT LET'S GO.
DAVE CARRARO: CHECK IT OUT,
WHAT DO YOU THINK THERE?
BUBBA: SHAPE IS NOT TOO
BAD ON IT, YOU KNOW,
IT WASN'T SUPER ROUND.
DAVE CARRARO: UH-HUH.
BUBBA: BUT IT WASN'T,
YOU KNOW, PENCIL THIN.
DAVE CARRARO: YUP, NO DOUBT.
BUBBA: NICE AVERAGE FISH.
IT'S ACTUALLY GOT A
NICE TAIL COLOR TO IT, OILY.
DAVE CARRARO: SO,
WHAT DOES THAT EQUATE TO?
BOTTOM LINE.
BUBBA: THIS FISH WILL...
WE'LL GIVE YOU $16 A POUND.
DAVE CARRARO: ALL RIGHT,
IT'S NOT THE BIGGEST PAYDAY OF
THE SEASON BUT HOPEFULLY
IT'S ENOUGH TO KEEP US ON TOP.
THANKS, MAN
LET'S GET SOME ICE.
SANDRO MANIACI: THANKS, BUBBA.
DAVE CARRARO: HIT IT.
BUBBA: TAKE IT
EASY GUYS, GOOD LUCK.
GEORDIE SOUSA: SEE YOU.
DAVE CARRARO: THAT'S
A PRETTY AVERAGE FISH.
I HOPE IT DIDN'T JUST
COST US THE LEAD.
NARRATOR: AT THE END
OF WEEK SIX OF FISHING,
PINWHEEL'S MONSTER 13 GRAND
PAYDAY PUTS THEM BACK INTO THE
LEAD AHEAD OF LAST
SEASON'S CHAMPION,
FISHING VESSEL TUNA DOT COM.
MEANWHILE, HARD MERCHANDISE'S
FIRST FISH IN MORE THAN THREE
WEEKS EDGES THEM AHEAD OF
THE CRUMBLING WICKED PISSAH.
PAUL HEBERT: RICK SHOULD BE
HERE ANY MINUTE WE'RE GONNA GO
GET NUMBER 5, 6, 7 AND 8.
RICK SCHRAFFT: ANOTHER TOUGH
WEEK ON MY OLD SKIN AND BONES,
MANY LASHINGS
FROM THE CAPTAIN.
THE PAST FEW WEEKS FISHING
WITH PAUL HAS BEEN VERY
DIFFICULT FOR ME.
BEFORE I GO ON ONE MORE TRIP,
PAUL AND I ARE GONNA
HAVE A HEART TO HEART.
PAUL HEBERT: WE GOT
A NICE DAY TODAY, RICK.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I THINK
WE NEED TO HAVE A CHAT.
PAUL HEBERT: WHAT'S UP, BUD?
RICK SCHRAFFT: I JUST
THINK WE NEED TO GET ON,
GET ON THE SAME PAGE.
PAUL HEBERT: I PROMISE
YOU IT'S GONNA GET
BETTER AND BETTER.
I TOLD YOU AT THE BEGINNING
THAT I'M WICKED HARD
TO WORK WITH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: BUT
I CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH.
PAUL HEBERT: IT'S NOT PERSONAL
WHY I AM THE WAY I AM.
THAT'S HOW YOU LEARN.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
PAUL HEBERT: I JUST, I...
RICK SCHRAFFT: IT WEARS
ON ME THOUGH THAT'S ALL.
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN IMAGINE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M READY
TO WALK AWAY FROM THIS BOAT
RIGHT NOW.
PAUL HEBERT: COME ON.
EPISODE OF WICKED TUNA...
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WHOO,
GET SOME, BABY, GET SOME!
DAVE CARRARO: NOTHING MORE
FUN THAN FIGHTING A FISH
ON A DAY LIKE TODAY.
SANDRO MANIACI:
THAT'S FOR SURE.
NARRATOR: THE SEASON
HITS THE HALFWAY POINT...
TJ OTT: OH, DAMN IT,
BOUNCED RIGHT OFF HIM.
JAY MUENZNER: THAT'S
A FISH, THAT'S A FISH!
GOT 'EM ON, BABY.
DAVE CARRARO: THERE HE IS.
NARRATOR: AND AS THE
COMPETITION HEATS UP...
SANDRO MANIACI:
THE SUN IS HOT.
DAVE CARRARO: YEAH, BABY.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
THERE'S YOUR SHOT, NICE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
PERFECT SHOT.
NARRATOR: WHO WILL CATCH FIRE?
DAVE CARRARO:
WHEN YOU'RE HOT, YOU'RE HOT.
WHEN YOU'RE NOT, YOU'RE NOT.
TJ OTT: THAT'S HOW
WE DO IT BABY, PA-POW!
NARRATOR: AND WHO IS
GOING DOWN IN FLAMES?
PAUL HEBERT: TURN
THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
REEL, REEL, REEL, KEEP GOING.
NO, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
RICK SCHRAFFT: I THINK
WE NEED TO HAVE A CHAT.
PAUL HEBERT: I TOLD YOU
AT THE BEGINNING THAT I'M
WICKED HARD TO WORK WITH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: BUT
I CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH.
JAY MUENZNER:
THAT'S NOT IN GOOD.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: GET
HIM OUT OF THE WAY.
TJ OTT: OH, THIS IS NOT FUN.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
OH, WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON.
NARRATOR: THIS...
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: NICE!
NARRATOR: IS WICKED TUNA.
AT THE START OF
WEEK SIX OF FISHING,
LAST SEASON'S CHAMPION
FISHING VESSEL-TUNA DOT COM
HOLDS ON TO THE TOP SPOT
FOR THE SECOND WEEK RUNNING.
BUT THE YOUNG
DUO ABOARD PINWHEEL ARE
WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE.
MEANWHILE, LESS THAN
$3,000 SEPARATE HOT TUNA,
WICKED PISSAH AND
HARD MERCHANDISE.
DAVE CARRARO:
BEAUTIFUL MORNING.
SANDRO, LET'S TRY
AND GET IT DONE TODAY.
DUDE, WE GOT TO
GET IT DONE TODAY.
THIS WEEK IS THE HALFWAY
POINT OF THE SEASON.
AND FOR EVERYONE IN THE FLEET,
THIS COULD BE THE
HARDEST TIME OF THE YEAR.
EVERYTHING TURNS INTO A GRIND.
LONG DAYS ON THE WATER,
LONG DAYS WITHOUT
SEEING ANYTHING,
IT'S ALL TELLING YOU,
"JUST GO BACK TO THE DOCK."
TUNA COULD BE IN A
MILLION DIFFERENT PLACES THAT
WE FISH UP AND
DOWN THE COAST OF MAINE,
NEW HAMPSHIRE, MASSACHUSETTS.
SOMETIMES IT IS
THROWING DARTS AT THE BOARD,
"HEY, WHERE DO
YOU WANT TO GO."
YOU TRY ONE SPOT,
YOU PROSPECT THAT'S
WHAT WE CALL IT.
IF THEY'RE,
YOU DON'T SEE MUCH,
YOU MOVE ON TO THE NEXT SPOT.
THE DOT COM HAS BEEN
SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE WE'RE ON
THE WATER AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
GEORDIE, SWING THIS ROD IN.
WE'RE ON TOP OF THE FLEET.
THE PRESSURE IS ON
BUT WE WOULDN'T HAVE
IT ANY OTHER WAY.
I'D LOVE TWO MORE BUT ONE
MORE WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY.
SANDRO MANIACI: I'LL
BE HAPPY WITH ONE MORE.
DAVE CARRARO: I HOPE SO.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
WE'RE OUT HERE GRINDING
AS HARD AS WE CAN,
WE'RE MARKING SOME FISH,
IT'D BE AWESOME TO CATCH
A FISH THIS MORNING.
WE'RE ONLY A FEW FISH BEHIND
THE SANDRO DOT COM AND,
THAT'S ALL WE NEED IS,
LIKE, ONE OR TWO FISH AND
THEN WE CAN GET
THE BALL GOING AGAIN.
IT'D BE NICE TO START
THIS TRIP OFF WITH A FISH.
WE NEED A TAIL HANGING
OFF THE BACK OF THE BOAT.
WE'RE HALFWAY THROUGH THE
SEASON AND THE ONLY REASON WHY
WE'RE NOT IN THE LEAD IS
BECAUSE DOT COM CHEATED HIS
WAY TO THE TOP SPOT.
TWO WEEKS AGO, SANDRO
AND GEORDIE CAUGHT
FIVE FISH WITHOUT DAVE.
AND NOW, DAVE'S
CLAIMING THEM AS HIS OWN.
IT'S PRETTY PATHETIC
WHEN A GROWN MAN'S GOTTA
GO TO THAT EXTENT.
DAVE CARRARO: I'M A MENTOR.
MY BOAT HAS ALWAYS CAUGHT
FISH AND IT WILL CONTINUE WELL
AFTER THEY LEAVE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
IN MY MIND,
WE'VE OUT-FISHED
THE DOT COM SO FAR.
DUFFY AND I HAVE BEEN
STAYING OUT OF THE DRAMA.
HEY, DUFF, WE'RE GONNA MOVE.
WE'RE JUST GONNA KEEP
OUR HEADS DOWN AND OUTFISH
EVERYBODY ELSE IN THE
FLEET, ESPECIALLY DOT COM.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
TIME TO GRIND, BROTHER.
TJ OTT: OH, BRIGHT MORNING
HERE IN THE GULF OF MAINE.
GOD.
BRIGHT SUNSHINY DAY.
WHY AM I NOT GOING OFF?
OVER THE PAST FIVE WEEKS,
WE'VE ONLY MANAGED TO CATCH
THREE BLUEFIN ON THE
HOT TUNA AND WE'RE WAY BEHIND
DOT COM AND PINWHEEL.
HALFWAY THROUGH THE SEASON,
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE THERE'S
STILL ENOUGH TIME TO
MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN.
YOU JUST HAVE TO BELIEVE
THAT TODAY COULD BE THE DAY.
[BEEPING]
OH, THERE'S A
FISH RIGHT THERE.
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
[DOG BARKING]
WE'RE ON, START THE
MOTOR, START THE MOTOR.
MICHAEL, COME ON, LET'S GO,
GO, GO [INAUDIBLE]
BACK ON THE ROD.
COME TO THIS ROD.
GOT 'EM ON, TOOK A BIG RUN.
NOT SURE HOW BIG HE IS
BUT WE'LL FIND OUT HERE
IN A MINUTE.
GET A HARPOON READY,
HE'S CLOSE.
FEEL LIKE A KEEPER?
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
FEELS GOOD SO FAR.
[BARKING]
MIKE OTT:
COME ON, GIRLS, INSIDE.
GET INSIDE, COME ON.
TJ OTT: GOOD GIRLS,
YEAH, GET INSIDE.
GOOD GIRLS.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
I CAN SEE COLOR.
TJ OTT: HOW'S HE LOOK?
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
LOOKS LEGAL TO ME.
TJ OTT: SWING HIM
OUT, SWING HIM OUT.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
RIGHT THERE.
TJ OTT: DEFINITELY LEGAL.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
IT'S OVER HERE.
MIKE OTT: TAIL ROPE'S READY.
TAIL ROPE'S READY, IT'S READY.
TJ OTT: OH, DAMMIT.
MIKE OTT: DID YOU GET HIM?
TJ OTT: NO,
BOUNCED RIGHT OFF HIM.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
HE'S COMING RIGHT BACK UP.
TJ OTT: GOT HIM.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI: THERE
YOU GO, COMING TO MY RIGHT.
MIKE OTT: GOT HIM.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
GET THE TAIL ROPE.
MIKE OTT: YEAH, BABY!
THAT'S HOW YOU WAKE UP.
BOOM.
TJ OTT: THAT'S HOW WE
DO IT BABY, PA-POW!
MIKE OTT: NICE JOB, JARRETT.
[BARKING]
RIPPLE LET HERSELF OUT,
GOOD GIRL.
TJ OTT:
OH, NUMBER FOUR, BABY.
WHOO, WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE HIM,
TAKE ONE OF THESE EVERY DAY.
MIKE OTT: 79.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
79, ALL RIGHT.
TJ OTT: BAG HIM, TAG HIM,
AND SELL HIM TO THE BUYER
ON THE SHORE.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
YEAH, BABY.
TJ OTT: DOGS LIKE IT.
IF THE DOGS LIKE
IT, IT'S A GOOD ONE.
THANKFULLY, WE'VE GOT HIM.
I'M HOPING WE GET A
HOT STREAK GOING IN THE
SECOND HALF OF OUR SEASON.
BANJEE-GA-GA!
WE GOT ONE, 79 INCHES.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
HE'S DOING GOOD.
HE'S IN A REALLY
GOOD SPOT OVER THERE.
MATT MATTSON: I DON'T LIKE
SEEING PEOPLE HOOK UP AROUND
ME AT ALL BUT I DON'T MIND
IF IT'S THE HOT TUNA BECAUSE
WE'RE HOPING THE TUNA WILL
FLICK THEIR TAILS ON THIS WAY,
YOU KNOW.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
SEND SOME OVER THIS WAY.
TJ OTT: OH, WE
WOULD LOVE TO, BRO.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: TJ JUST
GOT ANOTHER ONE.
THE FIRST HALF OF THE
SEASON HAS BEEN SLOW ON
THE FISH HAWK.
AFTER LAST YEAR
FISHING WITH PAUL,
I STARTED THE SEASON WANTING
TO PROVE THAT I COULD
GET IT DONE ON MY OWN BOAT.
BUT SO FAR,
THAT HASN'T WORKED OUT.
WE'RE WAITING PATIENTLY FOR
OUR FISH HERE BUT IT'S NOT,
IT HASN'T BEEN COMING.
MATT MATTSON: WE ONLY
CAUGHT TWO FISH SO FAR,
LESS THAN EVERYBODY
ELSE IN THE FLEET.
BUT IN MY MIND, WE STILL
HAVE HALF THE SEASON LEFT
TO TURN OUR FORTUNES AROUND.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: HE'S GETTING
SOME NICE CINDERELLA BITES.
HE SOUNDS VERY
HAPPY OVER THERE.
MATT MATTSON: SOONER OR
LATER, WE'RE GONNA GET THEM.
WE'LL GET OUR FAIR SHARE
OF FISH, THAT'S FOR SURE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: GOT TO STICK IT
OUT HERE FOR A LITTLE WHILE NOW,
MAYBE THERE'S A
COUPLE COMING AROUND.
[BOAT HORN]
PAUL HEBERT: GO!
THIS GUY HAS GOT TO GO A
LOT FASTER THAN HE'S GOING.
JESUS, HURRY UP.
THIS (BLEEP) SCUMBAG.
RICK SCHRAFFT: HEY, HEY.
PAUL HEBERT: GO, GO!
IT'S THE MIDPOINT
OF THE SEASON.
WE NEED TO GET OUT ON
TO THESE FISH BUT I'M HAVING
A HARD ENOUGH TIME
GETTING OUT OF THE HARBOR.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
JEEZ, CALM DOWN, CAP.
THE DAY'S BARELY STARTED.
THIS GUY'S A (BLEEP).
I'VE KNOWN PAUL
FOR EIGHT YEARS.
ON LAND, HE'S NICE,
KIND, AND GENEROUS.
BUT ONCE WE LEAVE THE HARBOR,
HE'S A DIFFERENT PERSON.
PAUL HEBERT: NOW HE GOES.
WHAT A SCUMBAG.
WEEKEND WARRIOR.
RICK SCHRAFFT: SPENDING
WEEKS AND WEEKS ON THE WATER
REALLY TAKES ITS TOLL
ESPECIALLY WHEN PAUL'S ADDING
STRESS TO THE SITUATION.
I JUST HOPE I CAN SURVIVE
THE SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON.
PAUL HEBERT:
PIECE OF (BLEEP).
RICK SCHRAFFT: I DON'T LIKE
TO MAKE ANYONE UPSET, YOU KNOW?
PAUL HEBERT: YOU LIKE
EVERYONE TO BE HAPPY?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH, I HATE
FIGHTS, I HATE ARGUMENTS.
PAUL HEBERT: AT THIS
POINT IN THE SEASON,
WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO MAKE
EXCUSES AND LOLLYGAG AROUND.
IT'S TIME TO GRIND IF WE
WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
LET'S GO CATCH SOME FISH
AND GET OUT OF HERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH, SOUNDS GOOD.
THAT WAS TOO MUCH
EXCITEMENT RIGHT THERE.
[BEEPING]
JAY MUENZNER: THERE'S
A FISH DOWN THERE, 15...
DAVE MARCIANO:
WHAT'S THAT, JAY?
JAY MUENZNER: 15.
DAVE MARCIANO: OKAY.
JAY MUENZNER: HAD A MARK,
15, 20, RIGHT AROUND THERE.
DAVE MARCIANO: WELL,
WE'RE GETTING STARTED.
WE'RE OUT ON PLATTS.
WE HAVE JUST MARKED THE
FIRST FISH OF THE DAY.
WE'RE HOPING WE CAN MAKE
SOMETHING HAPPEN HERE.
THE FIRST HALF OF
THE SEASON HASN'T GONE
THE WAY I HAD HOPED.
DAVE MARCIANO: ALONG WITH
MY NEPHEW JAY AND MY SON JOE,
WE'VE ONLY MANAGED TO
GET TWO FISH SO FAR.
JAY MUENZNER: YOU KNOW,
THAT'S HOW FISHING IS,
YOU GO A BUNCH OF DAYS,
CATCH A BUNCH OF FISH.
YOU COULD GO A BUNCH OF
DAYS AND CATCHING NOTHING.
IT'S FISHING, YOU DON'T
KNOW WHEN YOU'RE GONNA LAND ON
THAT BIG SCORE OF FISH SO
YOU GOT TO JUST KEEP GOING
THROUGH THE MOTIONS,
EVENTUALLY YOUR TIME WILL COME,
AND HOPEFULLY WHEN YOU DO GET
THE BITE, YOU GET TO LAND HIM.
THE MOOD ON THE BOAT
IS GOOD AND THERE'S STILL
PLENTY OF SEASON
LEFT TO GET ON A ROLL.
WE JUST HAVE TO GET
IT GOING THIS WEEK.
DAVE MARCIANO:
WELL, WE SAW A FISH.
IT'S FUNNY.
BEFORE WE EVEN GOT ANY
HOOKS IN THE WATER,
FISH ON THE SCREEN
A COUPLE TIMES.
NOW THAT WE GOT HOOKS
OUT, WE CAN'T MARK ONE.
I SWEAR, WHAT THESE THINGS
DO IS THEY SIT OUTSIDE,
JUST OUTSIDE WHERE
WE CAN SEE 'EM,
AND THEN THEY START
LAUGHING AND GO AWAY.
JOE MARCIANO: WELL, WE
HAVEN'T SEEN MUCH IN THE
LAST COUPLE OF DAYS BUT ALL
OF A SUDDEN, THE NEXT DAY,
YOU COULD BE ON FIVE FISH.
A BUNCH OF FISH SO, THAT'S
WHAT WE'RE HOPING FOR TODAY.
HOPEFULLY WE GET LUCKY,
START OFF WITH ONE,
AND LET'S GET
THAT ROD TO BEND.
RICK SCHRAFFT: THIS IS
THE SAME FREAKING HOOK.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT'S GOOD.
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH, THAT
WAS THE ONE THAT WAS ON.
PAUL HEBERT: RIGHT HERE.
REGULAR SABIKIS,
THAT'S IT RIGHT THERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: IT'S
THE SAME RIG, PAUL.
I HAD THE SAME RIG BUT YOU
JUST TOLD ME TO TAKE OFF.
PAUL HEBERT: REGULAR SABIKI.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
PAULIE, I HAD IT ON.
PAUL HEBERT:
THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
(BLEEP) UNBELIEVABLE.
TODAY, PAUL'S ON MY CASE
AND IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE
HE'S GONNA
LET UP ANYTIME SOON.
PAUL HEBERT: JUST
PUT THIS ONE OVER THERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH, GO
EASY WHEN YOU GO DOWN ON
THE ROD HOLDER, YOU'RE
GONNA SMASH MY THINGS IN THERE.
GO NICE AND EASY.
WHEN I'M SETTING UP TO
GO MAKE MONEY TO FEED MY
FAMILY AND PAY MY BILLS,
YOU ONLY GET THIS MUCH TIME.
GO NICE AND EASY
WITH THAT STUFF.
I HAVE TO BE TOUGH ON RICK,
SO WE HAVE THE BEST CHANCE
TO BE SUCCESSFUL FOR THE
REST OF THE SEASON.
[BEEPING]
LOOK AT THE TUNAS.
LOOK AT THAT, TUNA TIME.
UP AND DOWN, UP AND DOWN.
IT'S LOOKING BETTER HERE.
IT'S LOOKING GOOD.
[BEEPING]
WOW, THEY'RE RUNNING AROUND
AT LEAST WE KNOW THEY'RE HERE.
HERE COMES A TUNA.
[BEEPING]
THEY'RE COMING.
[CLICKING]
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO.
RICK, RICK!
RICK SCHRAFFT: YES.
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH, BABY.
RICK, ALL RIGHT,
NEVER MIND THE GLOVE.
(BLEEP) THE GLOVE.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I NEED THE GLOVES, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT:
THAT IS A NICE FISH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
SURE IS, LOOK AT THAT.
YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: ALL RIGHT,
PAY ATTENTION, REEL, REEL, REEL.
REEL, REEL, REEL, REEL,
REEL, REEL, REEL, REEL.
KEEP AN EYE ON THAT DRAG,
MAKE SURE IT'S
NOT ABOVE SIX, OKAY?
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH, YEAH, HE'S BIG.
PAUL HEBERT: HE'S
NOT LITTLE, HE'S BIG.
TURN THE ROD TOWARDS HIM.
YOU GOT TO LEARN TO TURN
THE ROD TO THE RIGHT.
THERE YOU GO.
BECAUSE THAT'S WHICH WAY
HE'S SWIMMING, YOU KNOW?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: SEE HOW I
DON'T HAVE TO MOVE NOW IF
YOU KEEP IT TIGHT?
SEE WHERE HE'S GOING?
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
KEEP HIM COMING, RICK.
YOU DON'T WANNA STOP.
READY, NOW, NOW,
REEL, GO, GO, GO!
RICK SCHRAFFT: I AM.
HE JUST DOESN'T CHANGE.
I CAN'T WIN.
ALL I CAN DO IS JUST
STAY MENTALLY FOCUSED.
PAUL HEBERT: MAKE SURE YOUR
BELLY DOES NOT HIT THE DRAG.
IT'S BEEN DOING THAT.
RICK SCHRAFFT: SEE THAT?
THAT'S A PRIME
EXAMPLE RIGHT THERE.
PAUL HEBERT: JUST MAKE SURE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PRIME EXAMPLE.
PAUL HEBERT: KEEP YOUR
BELLY OFF THE REEL.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
MEANINGLESS (BLEEP).
PAUL HEBERT: KEEP REELIN'.
DON'T STOP.
REEL, REEL, REEL,
KEEP HIM TIGHT.
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
THIS IS GIANT TUNA FISHING.
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
REEL, REEL, REEL, KEEP GOING.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M NOT
TURNING ANY LINE, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: NO, ARE
YOU (BLEEP) KIDDING ME?
PAUL HEBERT: REEL, REEL,
REEL, KEEP HIM TIGHT.
TURN THE ROD, TURN THE ROD.
THIS IS GIANT TUNA FISHING.
REEL, REEL, REEL, KEEP GOING.
RICK SCHRAFFT: NOT THIS TIME.
I'M NOT TURNING
ANY LINE, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: NO, ARE
YOU (BLEEP) KIDDING ME?
LISTEN, YOU GOT TO
TURN THE ROD AND REEL,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I UNDERSTAND, YES.
YES I DO, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: ALL RIGHT.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I'VE DONE THIS BEFORE.
THE REEL WASN'T REELING.
MAKE ME SEEM LIKE
A (BLEEP) IDIOT.
PAUL HEBERT: I DIDN'T
SAY YOU WERE A DUMMY.
I'M TRYING TO TEACH TO
GAIN ON A TUNA FISH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
ALL RIGHT, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN'T
BELIEVE WE CAN'T GET THIS FISH.
WE'RE JOKERS.
THE LEADER IS RIGHT THERE
AND THERE'S THE FISH.
THIS FISH IS READY,
HE'S HALF DEAD.
SEE HIM?
HE'S COMING UNDER THE BOAT.
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: REEL, REEL, REEL.
READY?
YOU GOT TO KEEP IT TIGHT, BUD.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PAUL,
I'M REELING FOR EVERYTHING
I CAN WHEN I CAN.
PAUL HEBERT: READY?
REEL.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I GOT
NO (BLEEP) LEVERAGE HERE.
PAUL HEBERT: GOT HIM,
GET A GAFF, GAFF, QUICKLY!
IT'S ON THE GUNWALE.
GIVE IT TO ME.
TAIL ROPE.
OH, RICK, REALLY, DUDE?
UNBELIEVABLE.
I'VE NEVER SEEN SUCH A
(BLEEP) IN MY WHOLE LIFE.
TAIL ROPE.
BEFORE HE COMES
ALIVE AND KILLS ME,
PUT THAT TAIL ROPE ON HIM.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE HARD
THING ABOUT THIS, DUDE.
I REALLY DON'T.
JUST CLEAN HIM OFF,
JUST WRAP, WRAP, AROUND,
AROUND, AROUND HIM.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT
THE PROBLEM IS.
YOU GET NERVOUS OR SOMETHING
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
ALL RIGHT PAUL,
I (BLEEP) UP EVERYTHING.
PAUL HEBERT: NO, YOU
DIDN'T (BLEEP) EVERYTHING UP.
I JUST DON'T WANT YOU TO
GET HURT OR ME GET KILLED.
I DON'T WANNA DIE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M TRYING MY
BEST HERE AND YOU (BLEEP).
PAUL HEBERT: I KNOW YOU
GOT TO GO FASTER THOUGH.
I DON'T WANT TO GET
KILLED OVER A FISH.
I'D RATHER CUT
HIM OFF THAN DIE.
I DON'T WANNA GET
KILLED OVER A FISH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: JUST A
COMPLETE (BLEEP) JOKE.
HE'S YELLING HIGH,
HE'S HARD ON ME,
BUT WE GOT THE FISH
THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS.
ALL THIS SHOUTING, I AM
AT MY BREAKING POINT.
I DON'T WANT TO BE ON A
BOAT WHERE I'M JUST GETTING
YELLED AT ALL-DAY LONG.
PAUL HEBERT: PULL THE
TAIL, PULL, PULL THE TAIL.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I AM.
PAUL HEBERT: RICK HAS
MADE SOME MISTAKES SO DOES
EVERYBODY WHEN THEY START OFF.
91 INCHES, NICE FISH.
THAT'S JUST HOW YOU
LEARN TO DO THINGS.
RICK IS LISTENING
AND LEARNING.
THAT'S WHAT MATTERS.
ALL THESE THINGS
THAT WE CAN DIE AND.
RICK SCHRAFFT: THAT
LAST FIGHT RIGHT THERE,
I WAS READY TO JUMP
OVER AND SWIM HOME.
I FEEL LIKE I WENT NINE
ROUNDS WITH MIKE TYSON.
MIKE TYSON BEING CAPTAIN
PAUL, NOT THE FISH.
THE FISH WAS NOTHING.
PAUL HEBERT: PULL THE TAIL,
PULL, PULL THE TAIL!
RICK SCHRAFFT: I AM!
BRAD KRASOWSKI: IS
THAT HIM STILL YELLING?
MATT MATTSON: YEAH, HE
WAS SCREAMING AT RICK.
HE'S OVER THERE SWEARING.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: WHAT'S
HE SWEARING ABOUT?
MATT MATTSON: I DON'T
KNOW, "GRAB THE (BLEEP)"
WHERE'S, I DON'T KNOW,
"WHERE'S THIS, WHERE THAT?"
HE'S JUST FRENZYING OUT.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: I'D LIKE TO
HAVE A TAPE RECORDER AND HEAR
WHAT'S GOING ON
WITH RICK AND HIM.
PAUL'S LIKE THE PENGUIN
WHEN YOU HEAR HIS VOICE.
[QUACKING]
LIKE KIND OF QUACKING,
WE CAN HEAR HIM YELLING AT
RICK OVER THERE.
HE'S LUCKY THAT RICK
DOESN'T TAKE A SWIPE AT HIM.
THE RUMOR ON THE DOCK IS
RICK'S STARTING TO BREAK
A LITTLE BIT.
MATT MATTSON:
I KNOW RICK WELL.
HE'S A GENTLE GIANT.
HE'S GONNA TAKE EVERYTHING
PAUL GIVES HIM UNTIL HE GETS
FED UP AND LEAVES THE BOAT.
IF PAUL'S NOT CAREFUL,
HE'S GONNA LOSE HIM.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
HE CAN BE A TYRANT.
HE'S A LITTLE SCHITZO
YOU KNOW, HE'S A LITTLE,
HE'S GOT A, HE'S GOT OCD, ADD.
MATT MATTSON: ACD.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: OH, WHATEVER
THE LETTERS ARE, ABC.
LAST YEAR WHEN I WAS
FISHING WITH PAUL,
I WAS PUTTING UP
WITH THE SAME CRAP.
FOR PAUL'S SAKE, I HOPE
RICK HAS ENOUGH PATIENCE
TO FISH WITH HIM
THE REST OF THE SEASON.
AND A LOT OF THESE
GROWN MEN LIKE RICK,
THEY CAN'T DEAL WITH IT.
THEY JUST GO TO THE DOCK
AND THEY TAKE THEIR BAG AND
THEY NEVER COME BACK.
[FLUSH]
[CHUCKLING]
SANDRO MANIACI: THAT'S QUITE
THE STICKER ON THE TOILET.
DAVE CARRARO: YOU LIKE THAT?
GEORDIE.
GEORDIE SOUSA: WHAT'S UP?
SANDRO MANIACI:
COME CHECK THE TOILET OUT.
GEORDIE SOUSA:
WHAT'D, YOU BREAK IT?
SANDRO MANIACI: NO.
DAVE CARRARO: BREAK IT?
I FIXED IT.
GEORDIE SOUSA: YOU FIXED IT?
HOW'D YOU FIX IT?
SANDRO MANIACI: HE PUT
WHAT DESERVED, BELONGS THERE.
GEORDIE SOUSA: OH!
DAVE CARRARO: THAT WAS
THE BEST $5 I'VE EVER SPENT.
GEORDIE SOUSA: THAT'S AWESOME.
SANDRO MANIACI: THAT'S FUNNY.
DAVE CARRARO: TYLER IS JUST
OBSESSED WITH THE TUNA DOT COM
AND SANDRO AND GEORDIE
CATCHING FIVE TUNA WITHOUT ME.
SANDRO MANIACI: HA, DESERVES
TO BE RIGHT DOWN THE DRAIN.
DAVE CARRARO: AND NOW,
EVERY TIME YOU TAKE A DUMP,
YOU CAN THINK OF TYLER.
GEORDIE SOUSA: FEEL
BETTER ABOUT YOURSELF.
DAVE CARRARO: THESE ARE
MY GUYS, THIS IS MY BOAT.
BOTTOM LINE IS I CAUGHT
FIVE MORE FISH THAN ANY OF
THE OTHER BOATS DID.
WE'RE ON TOP OF THE FLEET.
I'M SURE WE'RE GONNA STAY
THERE ALL THE WAY TO THE END.
HE WON'T GO AWAY.
SANDRO MANIACI: NUISANCE.
YEAH, HE WON'T GO AWAY.
GEORDIE SOUSA: HE'S LIKE
A ZIT ON THE ASS OF LIFE.
SANDRO MANIACI:
HE'S LIKE THESE FLIES.
HE DESERVES EVERY
BIT OF WHAT HE GETS.
TJ OTT: WE'VE GOT TO GET
RIGHT BACK OUT THERE.
THE FISH ARE BITING RIGHT NOW.
WE BAGGED HIM, WE TAGGED
HIM, AND WE'RE GONNA MEET
THE SCOTT-SO ON THE SHORE.
SCOTT-SO.
SCOTT: WHAT'S GOING ON, GUYS?
TJ OTT: WHAT'S
HAPPENING SCOTT-SO?
MIKE OTT: WHAT'S UP, SCOTTY.
TJ OTT: WE GOT ONE
DIAMOND FOR YOU, BROTHER.
SCOTT: ALL RIGHT, NICE.
LET'S GET HIM UP.
YEAH.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
THAT'S A NICE-LOOKING FISH.
TJ OTT: YEAH, IT IS.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
A LITTLE BIT MORE PLUMP.
TJ OTT: WHAT DO WE GOT FOR
DRESS WEIGHT, SCOTT-SO?
SCOTT: YOU HAVE
307 POUNDS DRESSED.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
ALL RIGHT, THERE YOU GO.
TJ OTT: ALL RIGHT,
PERFECT SIZE.
WANT TO GET A TAIL STAKE,
CORE SAMPLE, CHECK HIM OUT,
SEE WHAT WE GOT?
SCOTT: ABSOLUTELY.
TJ OTT: FOR A
HIGH-QUALITY FISH,
THE BUYER'S LOOKING FOR A
GREAT CORE, BEAUTIFUL COLOR,
AND TONS OF FAT.
WE'RE KEEPING OUR
FINGERS CROSSED THAT THIS
FISH HAS IT ALL.
THERE WE GO, SCOTT-SO.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, MAN?
SCOTT: WELL, IT'S GOT
SOME GOOD FAT IN IT.
TJ OTT: YOU LIKING IT,
YOU LIKING IT SCOTT-SO?
SCOTT: GREASY FISH.
CORE'S A LITTLE DARK.
NOT TOO BAD THOUGH.
TJ OTT: NICE.
SCOTT: WELL, WE
CAN GET YOU GUYS.
GOT YOU GUYS $17 A POUND.
TJ OTT: OOH.
SOLD TO SCOTT-SO.
PA-POW!
ALL RIGHT BROTHER,
THANK YOU SCOTT-SO,
ALWAYS A PLEASURE.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
SCOTT-SO, YOU'RE THE MAN.
I LOVE YOU, BUDDY.
TJ OTT: WE'RE GONNA HEAD
RIGHT BACK OUT, BROTHER, OKAY?
SCOTT: COOL, OKAY.
TJ OTT: SEE YOU SOON.
THIS IS A GREAT FISH TO
START OFF THE SECOND HALF
OF OUR SEASON.
WE'RE GONNA HEAD RIGHT
BACK OUT AND HOPEFULLY
KEEP IT ROLLING.

SANDRO MANIACI: GONNA BE
A HOT ONE OUT THERE TODAY.
THE SUN IS HOT OUT THERE.
VERY HOT OUT THERE.
DAVE CARRARO: THERE'S
NO WAY THAT I COULD DEAL
WITHOUT AIR CONDITIONING.
WE'RE INTO THE HEART
OF THE SUMMER NOW HALFWAY
THROUGH THE SEASON.
AND THERE ARE DAYS OUT HERE
THAT ARE JUST PLAIN MISERABLE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
GOSH, IT'S HOT OUT HERE.
I'M GONNA GO UP IN
THE FRONT, DUDE.
SWEATING MY (BLEEP) OFF TODAY.
IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE SUMMER,
THE SUN IS GLARING
OFF THE OCEAN,
IT'S LIKE A DESERT.
IT'S JUST ANOTHER OBSTACLE
TRYING TO GET YOU TO GO IN.
THIS IS WHERE
YOU WANT TO LAY.
MATT MATTSON: ENJOY IT,
CAP, YOU DESERVE IT.
CAP'S UP
THERE TAKING A REST.
HE FOUND SOME GOOD
PIECE OF SHADE,
WHICH IS VERY HARD
TO COME BY OUT HERE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING AND
IF YOU'RE NOT PREPARED TO
DEAL WITH EVERY OBSTACLE,
YOU WILL JUST GO IN AND
YOU'LL QUIT TUNA FISHING.
TJ OTT: OH, THIS IS NOT FUN.
MIKE OTT: IT'S BETTER
THAN BEING AT THE DOCK.
TJ OTT: I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS
BETTER THAN BEING AT THE DOCK.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
IT'S THE DEAD MIDDLE OF THE
SUMMER RIGHT NOW,
IT'S BLAZING HOT.
THESE LONG DAYS THAT SEEM
EVEN LONGER BECAUSE YOU CAN'T
GET OUT OF THE HEAT
AND THERE'S NOWHERE TO GO.
MIKE OTT: GO AHEAD, GO AHEAD.
IT'S OKAY, COME ON, GO RELAX.
TJ OTT: WE'RE A LITTLE SPOILED
ON THE HOT TUNA BECAUSE
WE HAVE A GREAT AIR
CONDITIONER DOWN BELOW DECK.
MIKE OTT: THE CAPTAIN
AND THE DOGS ARE RESTING.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
IN THE ICY COLD AC.
MIKE OTT: HE'S IN HEAVEN.
JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI: OH.
IT IS HOT (BLEEP) OUTSIDE.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WE NEED
TO SHUT THE DOOR AND TURN
ON THE AIR CONDITIONING.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: RIGHT
NOW, WE'RE COOKING HOTDOGS AND
RIBS, WE GOT PORK ON PORK.
THAT'S HOW WE DO IT.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
I BELIEVE IN THE PORK.
THIS PART OF THE SEASON JUST
FEELS LIKE IT'S DRAGGING ON.
AND THIS MOOD HITS
EVERYBODY EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
IT'S HARD AND IT'S ALL
ABOUT STAYING POWER.
YOU GOT TO STAY ON THE WATER,
YOU JUST GOT TO KEEP GRINDING
AND DON'T STOP AND JUST
PUSH YOURSELF THROUGH IT.
YOU GOT TO REMEMBER, IT'S
A MARATHON, NOT A SPRINT.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE: PORK'S
ALWAYS KEY ON A TUNA BOAT SO
WE'RE JUST TRYING TO STAY
EXTRA PORKY AND HOPEFULLY
THAT'LL CHANGE OUR DAY AROUND.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: WHEN
IT'S HOT OUT HERE LIKE THIS,
IT'S BRUTAL.
WHAT ARE WE DOING OUT HERE?
THIS SUCKS.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
IT'S GETTING HOT OUT THERE.
PAUL HEBERT: YOU SHOULD BE
WEARING THESE SHIRTS, DUDE.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I LIKE THESE, I'M GOOD.
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH, BUT
THESE ARE, THEY BREATHE,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT'S WHAT
THEY'RE FOR, WICKING SHIRTS.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
WICKING, THEY'RE CALLED?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH,
SPORTS SHIRTS.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PAUL HAS
AN OPINION ABOUT EVERYTHING
ON THIS BOAT.
TODAY IN THIS HEAT,
IT'S ABOUT WHAT KIND OF
T-SHIRT I SHOULD BE WEARING.
PAUL HEBERT: THEY MADE
THEM FOR GUYS WHO REEL IN
GIANT BLUEFIN TUNA.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT'S
WHAT THEY MADE THEM FOR.
ALL'S I KNOW IS THIS
IS THE (BLEEP) COOLEST
LITTLE BOAT AROUND.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M NOT
SURE HOW MUCH MORE OF THIS
I CAN TAKE.
I'M JUST, I'M EXHAUSTED.
LET'S FOCUS ON FISHING NOT
WHAT WE'RE WEARING FOR SHIRTS.
DAVE MARCIANO: HOT TODAY.
IT'S HOT.
THERE'S NO WIND AT ALL.
WE COOL OFF A LITTLE.
OH.
JAY MUENZNER: DAMN,
LOOK AT THOSE LEGS.
WHEN'S THE LAST TIME
THEY'VE SEEN DAYLIGHT, 1922?
DAVE MARCIANO: USUALLY, IT'S
A LITTLE COOLER ON THE OCEAN.
WE GOT JUST ENOUGH
ICE TO HANDLE IT IF WE CAN
CATCH 'EM TODAY.
IT'S BEEN BRUTAL OUT HERE.
DAVE MARCIANO: THIS REALLY
IS ONE OF THE HOTTEST WEATHER
SEASONS I CAN
RECALL EVER FISHING.
I'M NOT REALLY SURE IF THE
HEAT WILL AFFECT THE WAY THE
FISHING IS, BUT I'LL TELL
YOU, IF YOU HOOK ONE IN THIS
WEATHER YOU'RE CERTAINLY
GONNA WORK UP A SWEAT.
[CLICKING]
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
JAY MUENZNER:
WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON!
THAT'S A FISH, THAT'S A FISH!
DAVE MARCIANO:
I DIDN'T EVEN MARK 'EM,
I WAS SITTING RIGHT HERE.
JAY MUENZNER:
GOT 'EM ON, BABY.
GOT 'EM ON.
SCREAMING LINE TOO,
SCREAMING LINE.
DAVE MARCIANO: NICE AND EASY
NOW, DON'T DESTROY YOURSELF.
JAY MUENZNER: DID YOU SEE HIM?
DAVE MARCIANO: NO.
JAY MUENZNER: THAT'S A FISH!
THAT'S A SCREAMER!
JAY MUENZNER:
GOT 'EM ON, BABY.
GOT 'EM ON.
DID YOU SEE HIM?
DAVE MARCIANO: NO.
JAY MUENZNER: THAT'S A FISH!
THAT'S A SCREAMER!
THIS IS GOOD FISHING.
GOOD FISHING, BENT RODS,
AND TUNA, AND NO BOATS FOREVER.
HOPEFULLY WE CAN
GET A DART ON HIM AND
GET A TAIL STRAP ON HIM.
DAVE MARCIANO: AFTER NOT
CATCHING A FISH IN ABOUT A
MONTH, LANDING THIS TUNA COULD
START OUR SECOND HALF OF THE
SEASON OFF WITH A BANG.
JAY MUENZNER: GOT 'EM ON.
DAVE MARCIANO: LET'S
SEE IF WE GET HIM, GUYS.
THIS IS GREAT WE'RE
TOTALLY PSYCHED;
THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS.
JAY MUENZNER: WAIT
FOR HIM TO COME UP.
HE'S GONNA COME UP AT YOU.
HERE HE COMES, HERE
HE COMES, GO, GO, GO.
LITERALLY EVERYBODY ON
THE BOAT'S FIGHTING THE
FISH RIGHT NOW.
JOE'S ON THE ROD,
DAVE'S DRIVING THE BOAT,
I'M KEEPING THE LINE
AWAY FROM THE HULL.
IF THAT LINE TOUCHES THE
HULL, IT COULD BE OVER,
IT'S A TEAM WHO BRINGS THIS
FISH IN THE BOAT AND IT'S A
TEAM IF WE LOSE IT.
I GOT YOU, JOEY.
JOE MARCIANO: OKAY.
JAY MUENZNER: FORWARD.
TAG YOU'RE IN.
DAVE MARCIANO: STARBOARD,
STARBOARD, STARBOARD.
KICK IT, KICK IT,
KICK IT, THERE HE IS.
DEEP COLOR.
JOE MARCIANO:
WOW, THERE HE IS.
DAVE MARCIANO:
EASY, JAY, EASY.
JAY MUENZNER: MONSTER.
JOE MARCIANO: EASY.
JAY MUENZNER: HERE HE
COMES, HERE HE COMES.
THAT'S NOT IN GOOD.
ROD, ROD, GET ON THE ROD, JOE.
DAVE MARCIANO: ATTABOY, WE'RE
JUST GONNA PULL HIM UP SLOW.
JAY MUENZNER: HERE HE COMES.
DAVE MARCIANO: GET
THE LONG GAFF READY.
JAY MUENZNER:
I GOT HIM RIGHT HERE.
DAVE MARCIANO: JUST
WATCH MY HARPOON LINE.
JUST GO EASY.
DO NOTHING CRAZY NOW.
EASY JOE, EASY, EASY NOW.
EASY NOW, EASY NOW.
JAY MUENZNER: HE'S
RIGHT UNDER THE SURFACE.
DAVE MARCIANO: GET A GOOD
SHOT DON'T DO NOTHING CRAZY,
THERE YOU GO.
YOU GOT A PIECE OF HIM?
JAY MUENZNER: I GOT HIM,
I GOT HIM GOOD.
JOE MARCIANO:
WHAT SIDE, WHAT SIDE?
JAY MUENZNER: LEFT.
GOOD JOB, BOYS.
DAVE MARCIANO:
ALL RIGHT, BOYS.
JOE MARCIANO: LET'S GET IT.
ANOTHER ONE FOR THE MERCH.
JAY MUENZNER:
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
DAVE MARCIANO: BOOM.
GET HIM ON THAT STRAP.
JAY MUENZNER:
UP HIGHER, UP HIGHER.
DAVE MARCIANO: ALL RIGHT.
JAY MUENZNER: YEAH,
IT'S A NICE ONE, NICE FAT ONE.
GOOD JOB,
GOOD JOB JOE, CONGRATS.
DAVE MARCIANO: WE MAY HAVE
HALF THE SEASON BEHIND US BUT
IT AIN'T OVER FOR
THE HARD MERCH.
THE BEST TEAMS PICK UP
THE PIECES AND SCORE BIG
IN THE SECOND HALF.
JAY MUENZNER:
IT'S A NICE FISH.
WE'RE GONNA MEASURE HIM.
JOE AND JAY: 89.
DAVE MARCIANO: DEFINITELY
NOT THE LONGEST FISH WE'VE
CAUGHT SO FAR, BUT IT'S
DEFINITELY THE FATTEST ONE
WE'VE CAUGHT THIS SEASON.
THIS ONE'S GONNA BE
WORTH GOOD MONEY.
JAY MUENZNER: HEY,
LET'S HAVE A CELEBRATION.
DAVE MARCIANO: YEAH, YEAH,
I CAN GO FOR ONE OF THOSE.
JAY MUENZNER:
ICE CREAM ON THE BOAT.
DAVE MARCIANO: CREAM-SICLE.
THERE'S NOTHING LIKE AN
ICE-COLD TREAT AFTER FIGHTING
A MONSTER ON A HOT DAY.
IT'S FISHING WEATHER.
THE ONLY WEATHER THAT
MATTERS IS WHETHER YOU
NEED IT OR NOT BAD ENOUGH.
AND FISHING LIKE
THIS WE NEED IT.
PAUL HEBERT: YOU NEVER
GIVE A LINE TO ANYONE
UNTIL IT'S READY.
RICK SCHRAFFT: ALL RIGHT,
YOU WANT ME TO LET IT GO?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH [INAUDIBLE].
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN'T MOVE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL DID NOT STOP NITPICKING
OR YELLING THIS WHOLE TRIP
EVEN AFTER WE LANDED A FISH.
AFTER THIS TRIP,
I'M GONNA HAVE TO DECIDE
IF I'M GONNA GET
BACK ON THIS BOAT.
HEY, PJ.
PJ: WICKED RICK.
PAUL HEBERT: WATCH OUT.
I GOT TO GO FORWARD
MORE LET OFF ON THE,
WHAT IS THE PROBLEM, MAN?
SEE WE NEED SOMEWHERE
TO TIE HERE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: SCOTTY, CAN
YOU PULL THAT INTO THAT POLE?
PAUL HEBERT: IS THERE ANYBODY
THAT CAN GRAB THE LINE?
RICK SCHRAFFT: YEAH,
I GOT SCOTTY RIGHT HERE.
PAUL HEBERT: ANYONE AT ALL?
DOES ANYONE,
CAN ANYONE GRAB IT?
WATCH MY STERN.
SCOTTY: HE'S GOOD.
PAUL HEBERT: YOU GOT TO
GET PLACES TO TIE UP HERE
OR I WON'T COME HERE.
YOU GOT TO PULL IN HERE.
LET GO, LET GO,
JIMMY, PULL IN.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I CAN'T
BELIEVE THE WAY PAUL IS
TREATING THESE GUYS.
TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
PAUL HEBERT: JUST LIKE THIS.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'VE HAD
ABOUT AS MUCH AS I CAN TAKE.
PAUL HEBERT: THAT WAY
IT KEEPS THE BOAT IN,
YOU DON'T EVEN NEED THAT.
ALL RIGHT, JIMMY.
PJ: YOU READY?
RICK SCHRAFFT: OH YEAH.
PAUL HEBERT: WHAT DO YOU
GOT FOR WEIGHT ON THAT ONE?
PJ: 280 POUNDS, PAUL.
PAUL HEBERT: NICE SIZE.
ALMOST 300 DRESSED.
PJ: NICE SIZE.
LET'S SEE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.
NICE LOOKING FISH, GUYS.
YOU KNOW THE CORE
COLOR IS REALLY GOOD.
YOU GUYS ARE TAKING
GOOD CARE OF THESE FISH.
IT'S GOT A LITTLE SKIN FAT
NOT AS MUCH AS A COUPLE OF THE
OTHER ONES BUT YOU
KNOW NICE TEXTURE HERE,
THIS ONE HERE...
$13 A POUND.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
WE'LL TAKE THAT.
PAUL HEBERT: WE'LL TAKE IT.
PJ: NICE SIZE,
NICE LITTLE FISH.
GO GET 'EM GUYS.
PAUL HEBERT: THANK YOU, PJ.
RICK SCHRAFFT: PJ,
THANKS A LOT BROTHER.
PJ: GOOD SEEING YOU, RICK.
PAUL HEBERT:
THEY'RE ADDING UP.
THEY'RE ADDING UP.
NOT THE HIGHEST PRICED FISH,
BUT I'M GLAD WE GOT ONE,
AND RICK IS LISTENING
AND LEARNING TO WHAT
I HAVE TO SAY.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YOU WANT ME TO LET IT GO?
PAUL HEBERT: YEAH.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH JUST TOSS IT TO ME.
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN'T MOVE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: OKAY.
PAUL HEBERT:
THROW IT BACK ON THE BOAT.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
YEAH, I GOT IT.
OKAY (BLEEP).
THIS IS EMBARRASSING;
HE'S OUT OF CONTROL.
I'VE KNOWN PAUL FOR
10 YEARS AS A FRIEND,
NEVER HAD TO WORK FOR HIM.
IT SUCKS, IT'S DIFFICULT.
IT HASN'T BEEN EASY.
PAUL HEBERT: I'VE KNOWN
RICK FOR A LONG TIME.
I'VE NEVER FISHED WITH
A GUY THAT WANTED TO LEARN
SO MUCH SO BAD.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
HEY HOW YOU DOING?
WE JUST GOT IN FROM A TRIP
AND I'M NOT DOING SO WELL.
I KIND OF HAD A
ROUGH DAY WITH,
OUT ON THE BOAT WITH PAULIE.
PAUL HEBERT: I WAS A LITTLE
FIRM WITH HIM BUT I WANT HIM
TO BE THE BEST HE CAN BE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: THINGS GOT
A LITTLE DICEY AND THEN,
YOU KNOW, HE KIND OF JUST, A
NEW PAUL CAME OUT THAT I HAVE,
I HAVE NEVER
EXPERIENCED BEFORE.
PAUL HEBERT: HE HAD SOME
PROBLEMS ON THE ROD AND REEL
BECAUSE HE WAS SKITTISH.
HE'S FISHED WITH PEOPLE THAT
WOULD YELL AT HIM AND DO
CERTAIN THINGS AND
HE WOULDN'T GET IT.
BUT HE GETS IT, AND
HE'S GOOD, HE'S GOT IT.
HE LOVES FISHING,
HE'S HAPPY, HE'S FUN.
RICK SCHRAFFT: IS THIS WHAT
IT'S GONNA BE LIKE EVERY TIME
WE GO FISHING OR YOU KNOW
IS IT GONNA GET BETTER?
PAUL HEBERT: MAKES
US AS A TEAM BETTER,
BECAUSE HE UNDERSTANDS
WHY I WAS FIRM WITH HIM AND
HE ACTUALLY THANKED ME.
RICK SCHRAFFT: TO BE HONEST
I WAS READY TO JUMP OFF
THE BOAT AND SWIM BACK TO
GLOUCESTER 70 MILES THAT'S HOW,
THAT'S HOW BAD
I FELT AT ONE POINT.
PAUL HEBERT: GOOD MAN,
I'M VERY LUCKY TO HAVE HIM.
RICK SCHRAFFT: IF THIS IS
THE WAY IT'S GONNA CONTINUE
I MIGHT, MAYBE I MADE A BAD
CHOICE BY FISHING WITH PAUL.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
WE NEED A BITE.
COME ON, MAN.
WE'VE ONLY GOT TWO FISH SO
FAR LESS THAN EVERYONE ELSE
IN THE FLEET.
NOW AT THE HALFWAY POINT, WE
NEED TO START CATCHING A FISH,
IF I'M GONNA SAVE MY SEASON.
[BEEPING]
THERE'S A FISH RIGHT THERE.
MATT MATTSON: FAT ONE?
BRAD KRASOWSKI: YEAH,
THAT'S AN 80-INCHER.
THAT'S OUR DOWN LINE.
[BEEPING]
MATT MATTSON: FISH
HAWK NEEDS ITS TURN.
I'M DYING FOR
THIS ROD TO GO OFF.
[BEEPING]
[REEL UNSPOOLING RAPIDLY]
WE'RE ON, WE'RE ON, WE'RE
ON BRAD, WE'RE HOOKED UP.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: LET IT RUN,
BACK OFF ON THAT DRAG.
WATCH YOURSELF,
WATCH YOURSELF.
WE'RE GONNA REEL THESE IN
AND GET THEM OUT OF THE WAY.
MATT MATTSON: RIGHT
NOW WE'RE HOOKED UP.
WE'RE JUST TRYING TO GET
THESE LINES IN SO WE COULD
GO FIGHT THE FISH.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: THIS TUNA
RAN STRAIGHT AHEAD OF OUR
BOAT BUT FIGHTING A
FISH ON THE BOW IS GREAT.
REEL THE FAR ONES, I
GOT THE CLOSE ONES.
A FISH UP FRONT IS AWAY
FROM ALL OUR OTHER GEAR AND
IT'S EASIER TO CHASE DOWN.
WE GOT A NICE TUNA ON,
WE'RE PULLING THESE IN,
THEN WE'RE GONNA GO FIGHT HIM.
MATT MATTSON: I GOT TO
GET UP THERE, YOU GOT THIS?
BRAD KRASOWSKI: YEAH.
MATT MATTSON:
THAT'S A REAL ONE.
FINALLY GOT A BITE HERE.
GET HIM IN THIS
NICE BOW HOLDER,
WE'RE RUNNING UP ON HIM.
FEELING LIKE HE'S
COMING UP NICE AND EASY.
WE GOT HIM UP AND DOWN HERE.
JUST REMAINING
TIGHT ON THE FISH.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: JUST BE
CAREFUL UP THERE, MATT,
DON'T FALL.
IF HE FALLS OFF ANYTHING
COULD HAPPEN, THAT'S NOT GOOD.
HOLD ON UP THERE.
MATT MATTSON:
FEELS LIKE A GOOD FISH;
WE'RE CLOSE TO OUR
ANCHOR I DON'T LIKE THAT.
HOLD ON, SLOW DOWN, BRAD.
GO FORWARD LEFT.
HOLD UP, BRAD.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: BE CAREFUL.
[SNAP]
MATT MATTSON:
OH, WE LOST HIM.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: KEEP REELING
HE MIGHT NOT BE GONE.
MATT MATTSON: NO, HE'S
GONE, I FEEL HIM HE'S GONE.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: DAMMIT.
MATT MATTSON:
WE BROKE HIM OFF.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: OH MY GOD.
MATT MATTSON: THAT'S
FRUSTRATING AFTER SITTING HERE,
YOU FINALLY
HOOK UP, YOU FIGHT HIM,
EVERYTHING'S GOING GOOD
AND YOU BUST HIM OFF.
BRAD KRASOWSKI:
EVERY LOSS HURTS A
LITTLE MORE AS
THE SEASON GOES ON.
WE JUST GOT TO FIND A WAY
TO START LANDING MORE FISH.
MATT MATTSON:
THAT SUCKS, SORRY, CAP.
BRAD KRASOWSKI: OH WELL,
WE'RE HAVING
A TOUGH STRETCH, MAN.
MATT MATTSON:
WE'RE HAVING A TOUGH GO.
YOU KNOW TUNA SEASON
COMES TO AN END FAST.
BRAD'S GOT BILLS TO PAY.
I GOT BILLS TO PAY.
WE GOT TO START MAKING
SOME MONEY, NOW.
AT LEAST WE GOT
A BITE YOU KNOW;
AT LEAST WE KNOW
OUR BAITS LOOK GOOD.
MAYBE THE LUCK WILL CHANGE
HERE AND WE'LL GET HIM.
DAVE MARCIANO: WE'VE GOT OUR
FIRST FISH IN ABOUT A MONTH.
HOPEFULLY THIS IS THE FIRST
OF MANY FOR OUR SECOND HALF
OF THE SEASON.
SCOTT: WHAT'S GOING ON, GUYS?
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TODAY?
JAY MUENZNER:
THIS ONE'S A NICE ONE.
DAVE MARCIANO: LET'S GET HIM
UP THERE AND SEE WHAT YOU THINK.
SCOTT: ALL RIGHT.
JAY MUENZNER: UP!
DAVE MARCIANO:
WHAT'S IT SAY THERE, SCOTTY?
SCOTT: YOU GOT
418 POUNDS DRESSED.
JAY MUENZNER: NICE.
DAVE MARCIANO: ALL RIGHT,
SCOTTY WE'RE GONNA COME UP AND
CHECK IT OUT.
SCOTT: ALL RIGHT.
DAVE MARCIANO: SO FAR THIS
SEASON BOATS HAVE GOTTEN
UP TO 22 BUCKS A POUND
FOR A GREAT FISH.
AND AS LITTLE AS
$7 A POUND FOR A BAD ONE.
I'M JUST HOPING
THIS ONE ISN'T A DUD.
JAY MUENZNER:
ALL RIGHT, SHOW US THE MEAT.
OH, THAT'S NOT BAD.
SCOTT: YEAH,
NOT MUCH FAT IN IT.
DAVE MARCIANO: YEAH.
SCOTT: YOU KNOW
IT'S DECENT COLOR.
GREASY FISH.
GOOD SIZE TOO.
DAVE MARCIANO: YUP, YUP.
SCOTT: EASY TO SHIP YOU KNOW.
SO, WE CAN GET YOU GUYS,
I CAN DO $14 A POUND.
JAY MUENZNER: SWEET, PERFECT.
DAVE MARCIANO: OKAY,
BETTER, WE'RE GOING THE
RIGHT DIRECTION
A LITTLE AT A TIME.
JAY MUENZNER:
SLOWLY BUT SURELY.
DAVE MARCIANO:
ALL RIGHT MAN, THANK YOU.
HOPEFULLY WE'LL SEE YOU
REAL SOON, MAN THANK YOU.
JAY MUENZNER: THANKS SCOTTY.
WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
SCOTT: THANK YOU,
GOOD SEEING YOU.
SEE YOU LATER.
DAVE MARCIANO: SIX GRAND
PAYDAY IS JUST WHAT WE NEED
TO KICK OFF OUR SECOND
HALF OF THE SEASON.
LET'S GET BACK OUT THERE

THERE'S SOME FISH

THIS IS THE GO TIME.
THIS IS WHEN WE'RE
GONNA GET OUR BITE.
ALL SEASON LONG DUFFY AND I
HAVE BEEN DOING OUR OWN THING
AND IT'S BEEN WORKING GREAT.
THERE'S NO REASON WHY WE
SHOULDN'T KEEP IT UP FOR THE
SECOND HALF AND CLIMB
OURSELVES BACK TO THE
TOP OF THE FLEET.
KEEP PUTTING PRESSURE
ON THE FLEET,
KEEP EVERYONE FREAKING
SCROUNGING AROUND.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE A GOOD YEAR,
WE JUST GOT TO KEEP PUTTING
THEM OUT, STAY CALM,
STAY FOCUSED,
AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE A LOT
MORE TAILS DRAGGING BEHIND THE
BACK OF THE WHEEL THIS YEAR.
IT'S SO MUCH FUN
TO CATCH A TUNA.
YOU KNOW WE HAVE
A LOT OF STRESS.
THERE'S A LOT OF WAITING,
THERE'S A LOT OF PAIN AND
SUFFERING AND ROTTING AT SEA
THAT GOES INTO CATCHING THE
TUNAS, BUT WHEN YOU FINALLY
CATCH A TUNA, I DON'T KNOW,
THERE'S NO GREATER REWARD
BECAUSE ALL YOUR HARD WORK
CAME INTO DOING IT.
THIS IS WHAT
WE'RE OUT HERE FOR.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
AIN'T NO REST FOR THE WICKED.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN: I THINK
WE GOT THE BIGGEST FISH
OF THE SEASON.
WE GOT A BEAUTIFUL
FISH FOR YOU, GUT.

BUBBA: ALL RIGHT LET'S GO.
DAVE CARRARO: CHECK IT OUT,
WHAT DO YOU THINK THERE?
BUBBA: SHAPE IS NOT TOO
BAD ON IT, YOU KNOW,
IT WASN'T SUPER ROUND.
DAVE CARRARO: UH-HUH.
BUBBA: BUT IT WASN'T,
YOU KNOW, PENCIL THIN.
DAVE CARRARO: YUP, NO DOUBT.
BUBBA: NICE AVERAGE FISH.
IT'S ACTUALLY GOT A
NICE TAIL COLOR TO IT, OILY.
DAVE CARRARO: SO,

BOTTOM LINE.
BUBBA: THIS FISH WILL...
WE'LL GIVE YOU $16 A POUND.
DAVE CARRARO: ALL RIGHT,
IT'S NOT THE BIGGEST PAYDAY OF
THE SEASON BUT HOPEFULLY

PAYDAY PUTS THEM BACK INTO THE

SEASON'S CHAMPION,
FISHING VESSEL TUNA DOT COM.
MEANWHILE, HARD MERCHANDISE'S
FIRST FISH IN MORE THAN THREE
WEEKS EDGES THEM AHEAD OF
THE CRUMBLING WICKED PISSAH.
PAUL HEBERT: RICK SHOULD BE
HERE ANY MINUTE WE'RE GONNA GO
GET NUMBER 5, 6, 7 AND 8.
RICK SCHRAFFT: ANOTHER TOUGH
WEEK ON MY OLD SKIN AND BONES,
MANY LASHINGS
FROM THE CAPTAIN.
THE PAST FEW WEEKS FISHING
WITH PAUL HAS BEEN VERY
DIFFICULT FOR ME.
BEFORE I GO ON ONE MORE TRIP,
PAUL AND I ARE GONNA
HAVE A HEART TO HEART.
PAUL HEBERT: WE GOT
A NICE DAY TODAY, RICK.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I THINK
WE NEED TO HAVE A CHAT.
PAUL HEBERT: WHAT'S UP, BUD?
RICK SCHRAFFT: I JUST
THINK WE NEED TO GET ON,
GET ON THE SAME PAGE.
PAUL HEBERT: I PROMISE
YOU IT'S GONNA GET
BETTER AND BETTER.
I TOLD YOU AT THE BEGINNING
THAT I'M WICKED HARD
TO WORK WITH.
RICK SCHRAFFT: BUT
I CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH.
PAUL HEBERT: IT'S NOT PERSONAL
WHY I AM THE WAY I AM.
THAT'S HOW YOU LEARN.
RICK SCHRAFFT:
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
PAUL HEBERT: I JUST, I...
RICK SCHRAFFT: IT WEARS
ON ME THOUGH THAT'S ALL.
PAUL HEBERT: I CAN IMAGINE.
RICK SCHRAFFT: I'M READY
TO WALK AWAY FROM THIS BOAT
RIGHT NOW.
PAUL HEBERT: COME ON.
