Wicked Tuna (2012–…): Season 7, Episode 12 - Point Break - full transcript
NARRATOR: Over the past
month of fishing...
MATT: Woo! Fish Hawk, baby!
DAVE C: Dot Com on fire.
NARRATOR: Two Captains...
MATT: You got this, Brad.
DAVE C: That's what
I'm talking about.
BRAD: There we go!
MATT: Game over.
NARRATOR: Have been
on a catching spree...
DAVE C: Woo! That's Dot Com
style right there.
MATT: Fish Hawk! Woo! Ka-kaw!
NARRATOR: While the rest of
the fleet have fallen behind.
DUFFY: Oh! Chafed him!
TYLER: Oh.
JOE: It's a shark!
It's a waste of time
and a waste of money.
NARRATOR: So now...
JARRETT: Yeah, baby! Yeah!
TYLER: We're on! We're on!
We're on! We're on!
PAUL: Woo.
DAVE M: We go to get this one.
NARRATOR: The pressure's on.
TYLER: The race has
never been this heated.
TJ: Come on, baby.
Come on, baby.
PAUL: We're on!
NARRATOR: And one captain will
reach his breaking point.
DAVE M: (beep) (beep) (beep)!
Wow! What a (beep) up season.
NARRATOR: This.
TIM: I can't hold
him, look at this guy!
TYLER: Yeah!
DANNY: Pa-pow!
TIM: Woo.
DAVE M: Ah!
NARRATOR: Is Wicked Tuna.
DAVE M: What a (beep)
up (beep) year!
NARRATOR: At the start of week
12 of fishing, about $200
separates the fleet's
Meanwhile, the rest of the fleet
have some serious ground to make
up if they're going to catch
the two frontrunners.
TYLER: Duff, we got to step
it up this week. We need a bite.
We're grinding
harder than anyone.
It's time to perform,
big time, bro.
There are several boats in
the fleet, including us, that
have been struggling lately.
Meanwhile, in this past month
of fishing, Dot Com and Fish
Hawk have been on a tear,
pulling away from everyone.
We're desperate to start
making some big money this week.
We're marking! We're marking!
It'll happen any
minute, get ready, bro.
We're on!
DUFFY: Yow. Woo!
Yeah, baby!
TYLER: Woo.
DUFFY: Nice run, big fish.
TYLER: It'd be really,
really nice to put
this one in the boat.
Get the stink off.
We've been having some bad
luck over here on the Pinwheel,
and I don't know what we did to
deserve it.
The Tuna Gods have really
been making us earn it.
Right now, we got
one on the line.
It's really important that we
catch this fish right now.
I personally can't watch.
We've lost so many fish that
I just can't even watch.
Me, I can't, I'm like,
gonna projectile vomit.
DUFFY: The end of the season is
super close and right now we
can't afford to miss out on a
paycheck.
TYLER: Every headshake,
every single time this fish
shakes his head I think,
"Oh my God we're gonna pull
another hook."
It's so nice to finally have one
on here, Duff.
We really could use this
fish, the pressure is on,
the competition is fierce.
It is anyone's game.
Brother, let's get this one.
Big paycheck on the line here.
DUFFY: There he is, T, he's
gonna stay up high, huh?
TYLER: This fish
is really important to
get the momentum back.
It's been brutal, it's
been hard on us, the morale
on the boat's been down,
but there's only one way to get
the momentum going in the right
direction and that's to catch
this fish.
To have one on here,
it's a wonderful feeling,
just gotta get this one.
Ah!
DUFFY: Ah!
(beep)! Pulled hook.
TYLER: Dang.
Oh my God, that
really hurts, dude.
DUFFY: Right up in
his (beep) gill plate.
TYLER: Hurts when you see 'em.
Pulled the hook right
there at the boat.
Brutal.
DUFFY: We had
him, dude, (beep).
TYLER: Oh, my God when you see
'em like that, that hurts.
There's a 90 incher right there
on top, right at the boat.
DUFFY: He was so close.
TYLER: All we do is (bleep)lose
fish. All we do!
Been working so hard to get the
bites, finally get the bite.
SANDRO: Uh, Tyler lost him.
That's too bad.
GEORDIE: Oh. We'll send him,
we'll send 'em a card.
SANDRO: Yeah.
DAVE C: Good for him.
BRAD: Oh, he snapped him off.
MATT: Oh! Not Tyler! I like
Tyler.
BRAD: He lost him.
PAUL: What a shame.
TYLER: Oh. Well, there's only
one thing to do and that's
to set back up on the anchor
and put 'em out.
You know, that's why
it's a grind just got
to grind through it.
Just keep on grinding,
hopefully we'll get lucky,
maybe our luck will change.
You're gonna catch some,
you're gonna lose some, that's
just the way it's gonna go.
TIM: Nothing so far, Bubba.
TJ: I'm really proud to say
that this season we've shut
up a lot of the haters,
and performed really
strongly for the most part.
But, the past two weeks we have
not caught a single tuna, and
now we're almost twenty grand
behind the fleet's
two top earners.
DANNY: I see stuff. I see birds.
TIM: Nice.
TJ: So, this week my nephew,
Danny, and my dad are on board
to help us get back on track.
JARRETT: Looking good.
TJ: When Danny and
dad came out with us on a
trip earlier this season.
Woo!
Pa-pow!
We landed two great fish and had
our best payday yet this season.
TIM: The good luck charm.
TJ: Good job, buddy.
So, I'm hoping they can bring
us some luck this trip too.
DANNY: Going once, going
twice, sold to Jarrett Winksy.
JARRETT: Jarrett Winksy?
MIKE: One thing's for sure,
when Danny's onboard he
certainly helps keep morale up
and helps us pass the time.
DANNY: Hey, what's
your last name again?
JARRETT: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Oh, Przybyszewski! Pop?
TIM: Yeah, Bubba.
DANNY: Do you know how to
say Jarrett's last name?
TIM: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Przybys.
Przybyszewski.
Przybys.
You say it, Michael.
MIKE: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Przybyszewski,
Przybyszewski.
MIKE: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Przybyszewski.
JARRETT: We just marked one.
TJ: Come on, take the bait!
Take it.
Come on! Come on, come on,
take it, come on, God!
Pa-pow, baby!
TIM: Something's on there.
Something's on now.
JARRETT: Ah!
TJ: There he is, a tuna!
TIM: Yeah, look at him.
JARRETT: Woo-hoo!
TJ: Ripple, Reba. Watch out!
TIM: Is it him?
TJ: Yeah, it's him!
MIKE: Yeah, it's him!
TJ: Got him on, baby, Pa-pow!
Here's Jarrett, Dad.
TIM: Okay.
TJ: He's just sitting down
there at 140 feet.
We've got the Polish
Fabio cranking on him.
JARRETT: That's right.
TJ: Come on, guys, this
feels like a big fish.
DANNY: Watch the line.
Looks like he's shaking.
TIM: Uh-hmm. He's shaking his
head.
This thing is just
dogging right now, huh?
JARRETT: He's
starting to get tired.
TJ: We need this paycheck.
TIM: There he is, deep color.
JARRETT: Next one
after this one.
TJ: This could be
worth 10 grand.
Wait, wait, wait. Hold on, Dad.
JARRETT: Next one after this one
TIM: He's still too deep.
TJ: Trying to get him to
surrender to the flow here.
You got to get him here, dad.
TIM: Gonna try, TJ.
TJ: There you go.
MIKE: Watch that line, pal.
TJ: Got him.
TIM: Got him!
Bring him up, come on! He's
right here! Got him.
Come on, get a gaff, get a gaff!
TJ: I can't see
what's going on?
MIKE: Black backing.
I can't see him.
I can't reach him.
TIM: He's still green here, so
don't, don't do nothing hasty.
MIKE: Danny, you stay back.
DANNY: Okay.
MIKE: Stay away from that rope!
TJ: Right here,
he's right here!
Oh no he's, oh, no. Bubby!
MIKE: Ugh.
TJ, what am I gonna do?
TIM: What happened?
MIKE: He took the gaff.
TJ: The gaff's in the line.
TIM: This bastard
don't want to die.
TJ: Get the line. Get the line!
Get the line! Get the line!
MIKE: The harpoon line?
TJ: Yeah.
MIKE: Right there!
TJ: Yes.
MIKE: Ugh! God!
TIM: Lookit, he's still
swimming around black back here.
He's not ready.
MIKE: I'm hooked in, Michael,
I got him. I got him. I got him.
Dad, grab the line. Grab the
line. Got it? Ready?
TIM: Yeah.
Back up, TJ, a little bit.
A little bit! He's going down!
TJ: Why do you
want me to back up?
TIM: I can't hold him!
TJ: I can't see, Bubby.
I can't see!
JARRETT: Wow, he's
still kicking our ass.
TIM: He's still green,
look at this guy!
TJ: I can't see.
JARRETT: You're gonna have to
handline him in. I'm also tied
up here.
TIM: I, I, I got him! TJ, you're
pulling away from him.
TJ: Oh, he's tail wrapped.
Just don't fight, dad,
we ain't gonna get him.
We ain't gonna get him.
TIM: Come on. Somebody get
back here!
MIKE: Just keep coming.
JARRETT: See that line's in a
knot right there. I'm gonna
get it back to you.
TIM: I got him. I got him coming
just get the tail.
We got him, come on, get a
tail rope! Tail rope! Tail rope!
TJ: Come on, tail rope!
Tail rope!
TIM: Come on; get another gaff,
another gaff, another gaff.
That gaff's going to
(beep), another gaff, that
gaff's gonna slip out.
MIKE: You got it around?
TIM: Get the gaff.
TIM: I got him. I got him.
Yeah!
TJ: Oh!
There we go!
Nice work, guys. Nice work.
JARRETT: Nice, baby!
TJ: Pa-pow!
JARRETT: Nice work, buddy!
TJ: Nice job, bro.
(laughs)
MIKE: Yay! Danny boy!
TIM: Wow!
TJ: Things got crazy at the end
of that fight, but we worked
together and we got him.
Hopefully this is just the start
of our success on this trip.
TIM: Whoa! Look at him, Daniel.
And the hook is still in, Dan.
MIKE: Got to go over the fin.
DANNY: Eighty-seven.
TIM: Eighty-seven nice.
TJ: What do you say, baby?
What you say?
DANNY: We'll take him.
TJ: We'll take him?
DANNY: It's really cool
pulling a fish up on the deck
because it's such a big fish.
TJ: Eighty-seven 87, still
we'll take him, baby.
DAVE C: How the hell do they do
that? How does that happen?
SANDRO: Unreal. Wow.
MATT: You want to
dance with the champ?
BRAD: Oh, my God.
MATT: I was just (beep) with
you. Catch 'em up!
TJ: Woo!
JARRETT: I have a good feeling.
DANNY: You just jinxed
us, PRZYBYSZEWSKI.
(laughs)
JOE: Just had two
terns come through.
DAVE M: Oh, yeah?
Those lucky terns. That must
mean it's our turn.
ANGELICA: What do you mean?
DAVE M: Those birds that
do the little high pitched
scrack, scrack, scrack.
Those are called terns.
It's usually good luck.
It usually means it's gonna be
our turn next to catch a fish.
This season will end in a
month's time and while my kids
and I have caught less tuna and
made less money than all of the
other boats in the fleet, we're
not that far behind most of the
pack.
It's not over till the fat
tuna sings and we're not
going down without a fight.
A couple minutes, Joe, we'll do
a bait check and if it looks
good we'll get two lines out.
JOE: Cool.
DAVE M: Then we'll just
sit here and wait for a
big fatty to come through.
And hopefully, that rod
will bend right over.
ANGELICA: I'm ready
for my next one.
DAVE M: Attagirl, that's right.
ANGELICA: One thing I really
love and respect about my dad
is that he never gives up.
No matter how tough things
get, he's always trying.
It's all about just putting one
foot in front of the other.
After not catching anything
last week, we're all focused
on making some good money this
trip.
DAVE M: Our bait is still nice
and lively and frisky, so we're
gonna send him right back out
and wait some more.
PAUL: Every tuna comes from the
bottom, because they feed on the
bottom, that's where they feed.
That's just like us, huh Rick?
Start from the bottom
and go right to the top.
(laughs)
RICK: Yup.
PAUL: Rick and I got off to a
really solid start this season
and we were even the top earning
boat after the first
month of fishing.
But in recent weeks, we hit a
rough patch and went almost a
month without catching a fish,
so we really need to start
making some headway and
earning some big money.
ANGELICA: There's something.
JOE: We just had a couple fish
coming up, up high at 15.
DAVE M: What?
JOE: We're marking.
PAUL: First mark of the week.
From the bottom all the way up
150, right where that bait is.
RICK: Nice!
PAUL: There's another one!
Keep an eye on the floaters.
DAVE M: And now
we're just watching.
JOE: Come on.
PAUL: All right. Big tuna.
Nice to see a mark.
Whoa, whoa. What was that?
Here we go. Here we go. Got him!
JOE: We're on! We're on!
PAUL: All right, Rick!
DAVE M: All right. Here we go!
TYLER: We're on! We're on!
We're on!
JOE: Oh. He's running now!
DAVE M: Now we just got to hope
we can get this sucker to the
boat
PAUL: Whoa, whoa. What was that?
Here we go. Here we go. Got him!
JOE: We're on! We're on!
PAUL: All right, Rick!
DAVE M: All right. Here we go!
TYLER: We're on! We're on!
We're on!
We're on! We're on!
DUFFY: It was a good aggressive
bite. It's a big fish,
it's got some serious weight.
TYLER: He's got
a big bite here.
Really want to capitalize
on this fish, catch
it, get it into the boat.
Earlier today, we
lost a heartbreaker.
Dave Dot Com and Brad
on the Fish Hawk are
on a tear right now,
so this catch means
everything to us.
First thing in the morning,
we got a nice big bite.
Couldn't ask for
anything better.
DUFFY: All right,
bro, let's go to work!
PAUL: We got a bite! We got a
bite! Woo!
We're on!
Ricky's got him on!
It's fun, right?
RICK: It's awesome.
It's why we're here.
PAUL: Nice getting him
on up and down like
that, Ricky, good job.
RICK: It's nice to get
'em on, but then we got
to bring 'em in the boat.
I need to get a lot more
paychecks for my family.
Pauly, he's just taking a little
staying tight, that's all.
PAUL: Thank you.
Oh, he's a keeper,
there's doubt about that.
RICK: Hard on fishing right now.
He's a strong little sucker,
that's for sure.
DAVE M: All right, we had a
tough trip last trip, so we're
looking to redeem ourselves.
Attagirl, hon, yep, great
job, great job. That's right.
That's right, but that's
all behind us now.
It's the second half
of the season and we've
had a great kick off.
Now let's hope we can keep
running with this ball.
TYLER: Big fish.
The pressure's on.
Everyone in the
fleet's catching fish.
The race has never
been this heated.
Come on, bro, we need this one!
JOE: We'll take anything right
now as long as he's 73 inches .
DAVE M: Attagirl.
This fish is a down
and dirty fish. I like that.
Usually when they behave
like that, they wind up being
big fat greasy meatballs.
JOE: Gel's doing a
great job on the reel.
She's getting better
and better every fish.
ANGELICA: Just come
up nice and easy.
DAVE M: Just go easy on him.
A fish of this size could be
exactly what we need to help
turn this season around.
PAUL: Keeping him nice
and tight, that's great.
He doesn't want to be
on that hook, does he?
RICK: No. Coming at us.
PAUL: Cuckoo fish.
Wow, he's got pep, huh?
Nice work, Ricky, nice work.
He's a 90-inch fish.
RICK: Absolutely.
PAUL: This is just what
we need for our comeback.
DAVE M: We're all gonna
feel good if we can
get this one hanging.
The key is when they're
doing this, right?
JOE: Yeah.
DAVE M: With just a little bit
of extra heat on the side.
He just wants the
tip too, right?
And it's just, (bleep) gone.
ANGELICA: Are you kidding me?
DAVE M: He's gone. One shark and
one short.
That was all our action last
week. Now, loss.
Ugh.
This one was gut hooked.
Chewed us off, plain and simple.
We just can't freaking
catch a break here.
ANGELICA: Just sucks when you
do everything right and there's
just like, nothing you can do.
And it doesn't seem like the
odds are in your favor at
all, but we'll keep trying.
DAVE M: Kidding me? Damn.
If it weren't for bad luck,
we'd have no luck at all.
TYLER: Fish is definitely
pretty close, he's right here.
He's up on top, he's tail
wrapped and he's big.
He could break us off, so we're
just trying to be very gentle.
Let's get this one.
DUFFY: Swivel!
There he is!
Get the gaff!
Nice job, T.
TYLER: All right, got him. Get
the tail wrap on there buddy.
All right! He's ours. Whoo.
DUFFY: All right!
TYLER: Doing what we do, baby!
RICK: Coming up.
PAUL: Reel, reel!
RICK: Nice, Paul.
PAUL: You got his meat?
RICK: I got his tail.
PAUL: Good job, Rick.
He's a beauty.
You mark my words; this
is the moment the Wicked
Pissah starts its comeback.
Yeah, baby!
Pretty good. Nice
little fatty, huh?
RICK: Whoo!
PAUL: Fat fish. Payday, baby.
RICK: Pretty fish.
TYLER: Wow! Look at the shape of
this thing!
PAUL: Eighty three inches.
Nice. Good job, Ricky,
really good job.
RICK: Thanks,
brother, thank you.
TYLER: Ninety nine.
DUFFY: 99, all right.
TYLER: Bam!
DUFFY: That's a fat
99 right there, buddy.
TYLER: That is a fatty.
DUFFY: All right, woo!
TYLER: I want another
tuna just like this one.
Let's stick it out a bit longer
and see if we can catch more.
DUFFY: Hell, yeah, buddy.
PAUL: Wicked Pissah,
coming at ya! We got him.
PJ: Nice, Paul, way to go.
Big boy.
PAUL: Oh, yeah, nice color
and everything on him.
What a great start to the
week, a nice big tuna fish.
If the quality is as good as I
think it is, then this baby is
definitely gonna get us
right back on track as being one
of the top earning boats in
the Gloucester fleet again.
PJ: 466 pounds, Paul.
PAUL: What a beautiful fish.
PJ: Yeah.
PAUL: Let's see what
the core looks like.
PJ: Let's check her out.
PAUL: The buyer looks for
color, oil and fat content.
This season our tuna have
averaged about 19 bucks a pound.
I'm hoping this one
gets us a good payday.
What do you say about
this bad boy, huh?
PJ: Big fish. 466.
PAUL: Nice.
PJ: Good inside color, tail
color's nice. Fat's pretty good.
This one here,
20 dollars a pound.
PAUL: Ha-ha! That's a nice one!
I told ya!
RICK: That is a Christmas.
PJ: Nice.
PAUL: That's a good fish.
PJ: Nice payday, Rick.
Way to go.
RICK: Thanks, PJ.
PAUL: That's a nice fresh one.
This is just what we need to
make a dent in the lead that
those top earning boats have
over us.
Let's go get 'em again, come on.
RICK: You bet.
PAUL: We might shoot
right to the top.
TYLER: Been a long season.
Set out this season
to make a statement.
I want to be the best fisherman
in the game, been struggling for
years, good years, bad years.
The last couple years we've
really gotten consistent.
Really starting to
feel like we click.
Yesterday, Duffy and I started
this trip with a loss, but then
finally we landed a nice big
tuna.
Today I'm hoping we can land
another one because we really
need to start making some big
money.
I feel like I can dominate
this whole industry and
that's what it's all about.
But we've got a lot of ground to
make up for in the earnings if
we want to start catching up to
guys like, Dave on the Dot Com.
DAVE C: Sunscreen? You guys put
sunscreen on?
GEORDIE: Sunscreen? I just put
the Dermatone on my lips.
DAVE C: What is it?
GEORDIE: Dermatone.
SPF 25 for lips.
DAVE C: Well that, yeah.
Things are going really
well for us this season.
We're only narrowly behind the
Fish Hawk in the earnings, but
it's just a matter of time
before the Dot Com
takes back the lead.
In the past month of fishing,
Sandro, and Geordie and I have
landed more tuna than
any other boat in the fleet.
It just comes down to
skill and knowledge.
SANDRO: One more bite.
One more bite.
TYLER: Wow, marked a nice one.
SANDRO: Oh, my God! There we go!
We're going off! We're going
off! We're going off!
TYLER: Oh, my God! We just
marked 20 of 'em.
DAVE C: Oh, he's all over it.
He's got to get it.
Oh, he's still on it. He's on
it; he's all over it!
SANDRO: Oh, my God!
DAVE C: Come on.
Oh, look at this,
he's gonna get it.
SANDRO: There he is! There he
is! We're on! We're on!
We're on! Start it up!
DAVE C: Wow!
SANDRO: Watch this line
when you walk over here.
DAVE C: Look at that.
He's pissed off now!
SANDRO: Oh, no!
It's (beep) in gear
what do you want?
DAVE C: Shh! No yelling.
SANDRO: Don't (beep) stare
at it hitting the hull.
DAVE C: You want to argue
about it or we want to fish?
Move over, Geordie.
GEORDIE: Go ahead.
DAVE C: Look at that move.
SANDRO: Easy, easy, easy, easy.
DAVE C: Right now, the tensions
are high for everyone.
We're all fighting for first
place, we're barely ahead of
Tyler on the Pinwheel
and going against him pushes
us even harder.
TYLER: We're on!
DUFFY: Here we go. We're on!
TYLER: We're on! We're on! We're
on! We're on!
Get that other
down rod up, slow.
DUFFY: Woo!
TYLER: The competition's
on, so every bite counts.
Every fish matters right
now, who knows who else is
fighting fish right now,
we all are catching fish.
DAVE C: We need this right here.
Come on, let's get this one.
Come on, Sandro.
Good job, good job.
SANDRO: Reverse,
reverse, reverse!
DAVE C: This is the fish
that's gonna put us back on
top right where we belong.
Good color.
GEORDIE: Swivel.
SANDRO: Forward.
DAVE C: I got it.
I got it.
I got the fish, right here.
Swivel!
He's on top. There he is.
SANDRO: Keep coming back!
Keep coming back. Come on!
Come on! Get him come back,
come back, come on!
GEORDIE: Take the shot!
I got the fish, right here.
DAVE C: This is the fish
that's gonna put us back on
top right where we belong.
He's on top. There he is.
SANDRO: Keep coming back!
Keep coming back. Come on!
Come on! Get him come back,
come back, come on!
GEORDIE: Take the shot!
SANDRO: Are you
(beep) kidding me?
GEORDIE: Piece of (beep).
DAVE C: Oh, (beep).
We started this week only 200
dollars behind the fleet's
current top earner
the Fish Hawk, so this tuna
would have got us back in the
lead, it's disappointing.
SANDRO: What a (beep) joke.
DAVE C: Waste of time.
Oh, what a nightmare.
TYLER: Stay tight on
him, you're doing great.
We landed a nice tuna yesterday,
but we're well behind the
fleet's two top earners.
And with less than a month till
the Bluefin season closes, we
really need to start making some
big money.
So, we need this fish.
DUFFY: Get ready
to come around, T.
Under the boat.
Coming around the bow
hard, hard, hard, hard!
TYLER: boy, let's
just catch this fish.
DUFFY: Deep color.
TYLER: I see it.
Here he is.
DUFFY: Nice, T, get him!
TYLER: Got him!
We got one dart in him,
but we don't have him yet.
He's pissed. This fish is
pissed.
Nice, Duff.
Woo!
DUFFY: Yeah, baby! Hey, we got
half his tail.
All right, baby!
TYLER: Woo!
DUFFY: Missile has
been launched again.
Pinwheel, moving
spots, taking names.
TYLER: Taking names,
throwing darts, breaking
hearts, cashing checks.
DUFFY: Breaking hearts
and throwing darts.
TYLER: Nice, tuna, tuna, tuna.
All right Duff!
DUFFY: All right, let's get a
measurement on this guy, bro.
It's the year I was born,
he's 87, he's a Duffy tuna.
TYLER: Whoo!
Two tuna in two days.
These beauties are just
what we needed to help get
our season back on track.
Duff, let's get back
on the anchor and try
and get another one.
DUFFY: All right!
JARRETT: We just marked one!
TIM: Did we? No.
JARRETT: Yeah.
TIM: Yeah. He's streaking up.
TJ: After two weeks of not
catching, we're finally having
some good luck this trip.
We caught a tuna yesterday and
now we're marking another one.
So, hopefully this
trip is the start of us
turning things around.
DANNY: Oh, my goodness.
TJ: And catching up
to the boats who have been
making big money recently.
There he is, 150,
watch, watch, watch!
TIM: Come on, baby,
come on, baby.
DANNY: We're on! We're on!
TIM: We're on! We're on! We're
on! We're on!
TJ: We're on! We're on!
TIM: He's on!
DANNY: We're on!
TJ: Jarrett, get the
anchor, get the anchor.
Michael, get up!
MIKE: Oh, (beep) (beep).
JARRETT: Whoo!
TJ: Yeah!
JARRETT: Yeah, baby! Yeah!
TJ: Got 'em on, baby!
Good Luck Dan, man.
Good Luck Dan's got
us on the meat, baby. Whoo.
TIM: It's a screamer.
DANNY: It's a big fish.
JARRETT: I think
it's a big fish, man.
TJ: Is it?
JARRETT: Yeah, it's a big fish.
DANNY: Yeah, this is what we
came for, to catch a big tuna.
TJ: Jarrett's down and dirty,
trying to get him to surrender
to the flow and
hopefully we can get him.
Come on, baby, come on, baby.
Oh, come on, baby.
TIM: Yeah, he's dogging now.
Good, dogging makes him tired.
DANNY: Pa-pow!
JARRETT: Go forward, go forward!
MIKE: Swivel.
JARRETT: Swivel.
MIKE: Color.
JARRETT: Forward, go
forward a little bit.
MIKE: Dan, over here.
MIKE: Stand there
and hold that.
JARRETT: It's gonna
be the next one!
DANNY: Watch out,
I want to see him.
JARRETT: Right on TJ's side.
DANNY: Wow, that's a big fish!
TJ: It's always tense.
Stick him!
Throw the dart.
DANNY: Did you get him?
TIM: Got him!
JARRETT: Get a gaff! Gaff!
DANNY: That's big fish!
TIM: Big one! Big one! Big one!
DANNY: Oh, my goodness!
Get the gaff!
MIKE: I'm right
here, I'm right here.
JARRETT: Lower to my right.
DANNY: Pop! Pop!
That's a ginormous fish!
TIM: I got the head. I got it.
MIKE: Tail rope!
DANNY: Tail wrap.
TIM: He's big.
He's got the rope.
He's got the rope on him.
He's got it on.
All right!
JARRETT: Yeah!
TIM: Whoo!
JARRETT: All right.
TIM: Man, you are a
good luck charm, buddy.
(laughs)
TJ: Two nice tuna in two days.
Good job, buddy.
Fish Hawk and Dot Com better
look out because things are
looking up for the Hot Tuna.
DANNY: A big one.
JARRETT: Dan, what do you think?
You want to see how long it is?
DANNY: Yep. 77 inches.
TIM: Yeah!
TJ: Nice, baby, nice.
TIM: He's a keeper,
he's going in the box.
DANNY: Welcome to
the Hotel Hot Tuna.
TIM: Yeah, baby!
DANNY: Pa-pow! Przybyszewski.
JARRETT: That was pretty
damn good, actually.
JOE: Well, this is exciting.
ANGELICA: It's almost like we
were doing this exact same thing
yesterday and the day before.
DAVE M: I know
my kids are frustrated
right now and so am I.
DAVE M: We hooked
up earlier this week, but
lost it close to the boat.
Well, we're sitting
here and we're waiting.
We're hoping for a fish today,
we've had a rough day or two, so
we're just trying to get back
on the playing field here and
we need a confidence booster
if nothing else today.
Knock on wood, there isn't much
else more that could go wrong.
We just need some better
luck, please tuna gods,
bring us some luck.
JOE: Come on!
Oh, there's a fish down at 30.
DAVE M: Right on
that (beep) down rod.
JOE: We're on! We're on!
We're on!
DAVE M: We're on!
JOE: We're on!
DAVE M: We're on
something, here.
Shark.
JOE: Thought we got a fish
for a second, but it just
turned out to be a shark.
DAVE M: I'm trying to stay
calm, but to be honest, it's
getting harder and harder.
A person can only
take so much failure.
Shark. I never mark nothing.
(music)
DUFFY: Marching up to the top.
TYLER: I'm holding the top,
dude, we're just marching away
from the rest of the fleet,
just keep going,
keep going, later!
Over the past month,
Fish Hawk and Dot Com have
pulled away from the fleet,
but neither of them have
caught so far this week.
So if we can get our third
fish here, we'd have a great
chance at taking the lead.
It's nice to actually have
a boat that we can hold
enough ice to sit and stay,
hold enough bait to
fish and compete.
You got everything we need.
Now we got all the tools and
we're putting it to work.
I'm marking 'em pretty good.
All right we need a bite now.
Time for a bite.
DUFFY: We're on!
TYLER: Oh, I'm on! I'm on!
We're on!
Ah!
DUFFY: Wooo. Yeah, baby!
I'm marking 'em pretty good.
DUFFY: We're on!
TYLER: Oh, I'm on! I'm on!
We're on!
Ah!
DUFFY: Yeah, baby!
TYLER: We need this one, Duff!
Got 'em on, baby! Got 'em on!
Anchor, anchor!
DUFFY: This is a big boy.
TYLER: Go, Duffy!
DUFFY: Down and tight, baby!
TYLER: Hooked up, hooked up!
On my third.
BRAD: Woo!
TJ: This is (beep) up, so
Tyler's got, he's got three.
SANDRO: Guy's having
a (beep) year.
DUFFY: Nice fish here, line's
a little bit crazy, but
I'm getting (beep) situated.
May see this guy sometime soon.
TYLER: Come on, Duff,
we need this fish, baby.
DUFFY: Yeah, brother, we got
him.
TYLER: We get this one, it's
gonna put us in a good spot
on the leaderboard, bro.
We got to take every
single bite serious.
It's do or die.
DUFFY: We're
gaining on him now.
TYLER: Dude, we are pros.
We are doing what we do.
Down and tight, We're
smoking everyone.
The young bucks. We outfish all
the old bucks now.
DUFFY: Gonna be like
a basketball game, you
got to box 'em out!
Deep color, deep color!
TYLER: I see him, I see him.
DUFFY: There he
is, there he is, T.
TYLER: Oh, deep, deep color.
DUFFY: Yup.
TYLER: No doubt this
is a hundred-incher
DUFFY: Drill him, brother!
TYLER: Get him!
DUFFY: Nice shot!
TYLER: I got him! Tail gaff!
Woo! Yeah, buddy!
Take that, Dot Com!
Oh, he's getting away!
DUFFY: Not if I have
anything to say about it!
TYLER: Yeah, Duff!
DUFFY: All right!
TYLER: Pinwheel, baby!
DUFFY: All right!
TYLER: Woo!
Yeah, buddy!
DUFFY: That's what
I'm talking about.
TYLER: Woo!
Ka-kaw!
It's our show now.
It's a big one.
Wow, a big Bluefin.
Yeah!
(laughs)
DUFFY: I was just gonna say
where's Timmy when we need him?
TYLER: Oh, my God!
DUFFY: That's a real one, dude.
TYLER: First place, right here.
Let's get a measurement.
I got to know.
What do you got?
DUFFY: 109 and a half.
TYLER: Wow!
DUFFY: Yeah, buddy!
TYLER: Our biggest
one of the year!
DUFFY: Our biggest
fish so far, brother.
TYLER: 109 and a half
is the biggest tuna
aboard the Pinwheel.
Wow, we feel some
real weight right now.
Great job, Duff.
What a great season.
First place, right here.
TJ: Hot Tuna is en fuego.
What's happening, Scottso?
SCOTT: What's going on, guys?
TJ: We got two
onboard today, buddy.
SCOTT: All right.
TJ: We got two with Daniel.
SCOTT: Nice,
let's check them out.
TIM: This is the
one Daniel caught.
DANNY: I caught both.
TJ: After two weeks of not
catching anything, I couldn't
be happier to have these two
beauties to sell.
DANNY: How does
it look, Scottso?
SCOTT: 210 pounds. 305 pounds.
DANNY: Nice.
TIM: Whoa! Nice butterball
there.
TJ: Want to get some tail cuts
and core samples, we'll come up?
SCOTT: Yeah, come on up.
TJ: They look nice.
SCOTT: Yeah.
You did a good job, bud.
DANNY: Thanks.
SCOTT: So, this one right
here, a little bit of fat in
him, good color, good core.
We'll get you guys
18 dollars a pound
TJ: Whoo, nice, nice!
TIM: Nice. We'll take that.
SCOTT: And with
this one right here.
TJ: That's a nice fish.
SCOTT: Good shape on him.
Good core on it.
That'll do
19 dollars a pound.
TIM: Woo!
TJ: Pa-pow, baby!
MIKE: Very good job, Daniel!
MIKE: That's our
good luck charm.
TJ: Pa-pow!
Hot Tuna is back in the game.
Those other guys
better look out.
DAVE M: Sooner or later
we should be able to bump
into a fish I would hope.
I've caught a lot of fish
here, but the whole trick to
this game is when to be where.
ANGELICA: I can't
help but worry and I
know my dad's worried.
It's been almost three
weeks since we've landed
Bluefin and got a paycheck.
DAVE M: The baits are
fine; let's see if we
can get on some fish.
ANGELICA: This week boats have
been catching a lot of fish
and making some big money,
but all we've managed this
trip is to lose a big tuna
and hook up to a shark,
so we can't afford to have
anything else to go wrong.
DAVE M: We just got
to wait some more.
This spot, like all the
spots I've hit, I've caught
a lot of fish in the past,
let's just hope
it's hot right now.
Well, we're fishing.
There's a couple
down there, Joe.
Looks like -looks like
one, looks like one, so looks
like he came up a little bit.
JOE: Dad, we're on! We're on!
We're on!
DAVE M: We're on!
We're on, got him?
JOE: He's taking all the line.
DAVE M: We're on a fish.
DAVE M: I want to get up on him,
Joe, but I got to get this in
first.
This is not good.
A tuna has swum around
our anchor line, and
with all the friction,
the fishing line or even
our anchor line could part.
We just can't afford to lose
any more money this season.
Fish (beep) sawed off a
thousand dollar anchor.
The (beep) fish.
Every (beep) time, we get (beep)
right (beep) (beep) (beep).
Can't catch a (beep)
break this (beep) season.
Five thousand dollars for a
(beep) pump, another thousand
bucks for a (beep) anchor.
Should just cut this
(beep) line now, what
the (beep) (beep) over.
(beep)! We got to get this one.
This tuna had better be big,
otherwise this is gonna put
us even further in the red.
(beep) (beep) (beep) (beep)
(beep) (beep) (beep) (beep).
ANGELICA: Once again, we
have another fallback.
We lost the anchor and
he has to somehow buy
a new anchor I guess.
DAVE M: (beep)
rotten, (beep) prick.
ANGELICA: This is the first
time in a long time that
I've seen my dad this upset.
DAVE M: (beep)! Wow!
ANGELICA: My dad can handle
a lot, but this one just
pushed him over the edge.
JOE: There's a swivel!
DAVE M: Gonna get that
(beep) stinker up.
Deep color!
Pull him into me now.
Pull him in.
It's not a monster,
but it's a keeper.
-Not good
-There you go.
Yeah, it's legal, but this
is definitely the smallest
tuna of the season.
Wow, (beep)!
JOE: There's a swivel!
stinker up, Deep color!
Pull him into me now.
Pull him in.
It's not a monster,
but it's a keeper.
-Not good
-There you go.
Yeah, it's legal, but this
is definitely the smallest
tuna of the season.
Wow, (beep)!
JOE: It's a lot of pressure
and sometimes you just, it
builds up and you just snap,
so it just happens.
DAVE M: Fish sawed off a
thousand dollar anchor.
For a (beep) 200 pound fish.
We would have been better
off not (beep) catching it.
Drove all the way out
here for (beep) nothing.
Drive all the way (beep)
home and throw some
more (beep) money away.
Man, God just loves
(beep) shoving his (beep)
(beep) up my (beep) man.
What a (beep) up season.
What a (beep) up (beep) year.
74 and a half
Just over the 73-inch minimum
length 200-pound fish.
He sawed off a
thousand dollar anchor.
We can't even fish for more fish
now because we (beep) lost our
anchor because of this (beep)
(beep) (beep) (beep).
JOE: Just when we thought
it was starting to go
our way, we just (beep),
another thing happens.
ANGELICA: Again, we're still
operating at a negative.
It (beep) sucks.
(music)
JUDY: Hey, guys.
TYLER: What's up, moms?
DONNA: Hi.
Glad to see you here safe.
TYLER: I always get
us in safe, mom.
DONNA: My first concern.
GUT: I keep an eye on 'em ma.
DONNA: Yeah, you just pay
'em a good price, Gut.
TYLER: Got three
beauties for you, Gut.
GUT: Oh, nice!
TYLER: And really
putting the pressure on
the rest of the fleet.
They're all doing
the Dot Com twitch.
GUT: Here we go.
All right, let's check 'em out.
TYLER: It's great to be greeted
by our moms and it's even
sweeter that they're seeing us
bring back a big catch.
Brother, what we got?
GUT: 253. 359. 533 dressed.
TYLER: Beautiful!
DUFFY: Woo! All right, bro.
JUDY: Good job,
guys, great fish.
TYLER: We're coming
up to check it out.
At the start of the week,
we were trailing Fish Hawk and
Dot Com by more than 14 grand.
Both of them struck out,
so there's a chance that
we could take the lead.
Hi, mom. How you doing?
DONNA: Hey, the fish look great
guys.
TYLER: Good to see you, mom.
DONNA: Oh, honey.
DUFFY: Good to see you.
TYLER: All right, Gut.
What have you got for us?
GUT: This one here.
It's a decent fish, good core.
Not loaded with fat,
but it's got some fat.
I'm gonna give you 16.
DONNA: Oh, no way.
GUT: Sorry, it's a wreck.
What can I tell you?
TYLER: I see it. I see it.
GUT: The little
one's got some fat.
Got a real nice core.
DONNA: Look at those veins.
GUT: Oh, yeah, yup.
19 dollars.
TYLER: Wow, awesome, Gut.
Beautiful. Beautiful.
GUT: This one here.
DONNA: The big boy.
TYLER: All right,
ring the bell come on.
GUT: That's a nice.
TYLER: Ding, ding, ding.
DONNA: That's a beautiful fish.
You have to admit it.
GUT: That's a good fish there,
a lot of fat, core's not bad.
DONNA: The core's beautiful.
GUT: That one there,
I'll give you.
TYLER: The lead is gonna
come down to how much
we get for this fish.
GUT: 19 dollars.
TYLER: All right! Bingo!
Good job, dude.
DUFFY: Ringing the bell!
TYLER: Almost 21 grand.
That's exactly what we need to
head into the homestretch of
the season with a handy lead.
Pinwheel, baby.
JUDY: Good job. Get some rest.
TYLER: Peace and love.
DAVE M: All right,
Scotty, we got one.
It came at a price, though.
He sliced off our
anchor on his first run.
SCOTT: Wow, there
goes your check.
DAVE M: Yeah.
After going almost three
weeks without a fish
we finally landed one.
But we lost a thousand-dollar
anchor in the process.
It's hard; we just can't seem
to get a break this season.
What do you got, Scotty?
SCOTT: 177 pounds dressed.
DAVE M: I'm not sure it was
worth the price, but it's better
than a sharp stick in the eye,
I guess.
So far this season our
fish have averaged about
20 dollars a pound,
so I'm hoping this fish is
good quality too because God
knows we need a good payday.
Am I at least gonna break even?
SCOTT: Mmmm. You know, he's
a bit of a skinny fish.
Kind of rubbery.
There's really no fat to it.
I'd have to say you're gonna get
7 dollars a pound.
DAVE M: Well sometimes steps
forward are just baby steps.
Baby steps?
This fish barely covers
the cost of the anchor.
Looks like it's the dollar menu
for us tonight for dinner.
I think the next trip I'll call
it a success if nothing breaks.
NARRATOR: With only three wees
until the end of fishing,
Pinwheel's triple catch
pushes them back into the lead
for the first time in seven
weeks and good quality fish
for Hot Tuna and Wicked
Pissah keep them in the race.
Meanwhile, Hard Merchandise's
disappointing payday puts them
even further behind the pack.
TYLER: Woo! First place on the
leaderboard is ours, baby.
Come on!
MATT: No, really
how old are you?
TYLER: Twenty-nine, bro.
MATT: You talk like
you're (beep) 50 you got the
experience of a 75 year old.
I don't know how you're only 29.
DAVE C: Right, Geordie?
GEORDIE: What's that?
DAVE C: If we had all
the answers to fishing
we'd be millionaires.
GEORDIE: If we had all the
answers to fishing, I bet we
wouldn't be sitting here.
DANNY: Tyler sucks. I hate him.
No one likes him.
TIM: Nerd. Poser.
TJ: I can't stand
to listen to him talk,
like, complete rubbish.
PAUL: Tyler works
really, really hard.
I know he's catching
a lot of fish because TJ
talks about it every day.
(laughs)
TYLER: Thanks for playing.
Woo! Yeah!
month of fishing...
MATT: Woo! Fish Hawk, baby!
DAVE C: Dot Com on fire.
NARRATOR: Two Captains...
MATT: You got this, Brad.
DAVE C: That's what
I'm talking about.
BRAD: There we go!
MATT: Game over.
NARRATOR: Have been
on a catching spree...
DAVE C: Woo! That's Dot Com
style right there.
MATT: Fish Hawk! Woo! Ka-kaw!
NARRATOR: While the rest of
the fleet have fallen behind.
DUFFY: Oh! Chafed him!
TYLER: Oh.
JOE: It's a shark!
It's a waste of time
and a waste of money.
NARRATOR: So now...
JARRETT: Yeah, baby! Yeah!
TYLER: We're on! We're on!
We're on! We're on!
PAUL: Woo.
DAVE M: We go to get this one.
NARRATOR: The pressure's on.
TYLER: The race has
never been this heated.
TJ: Come on, baby.
Come on, baby.
PAUL: We're on!
NARRATOR: And one captain will
reach his breaking point.
DAVE M: (beep) (beep) (beep)!
Wow! What a (beep) up season.
NARRATOR: This.
TIM: I can't hold
him, look at this guy!
TYLER: Yeah!
DANNY: Pa-pow!
TIM: Woo.
DAVE M: Ah!
NARRATOR: Is Wicked Tuna.
DAVE M: What a (beep)
up (beep) year!
NARRATOR: At the start of week
12 of fishing, about $200
separates the fleet's
Meanwhile, the rest of the fleet
have some serious ground to make
up if they're going to catch
the two frontrunners.
TYLER: Duff, we got to step
it up this week. We need a bite.
We're grinding
harder than anyone.
It's time to perform,
big time, bro.
There are several boats in
the fleet, including us, that
have been struggling lately.
Meanwhile, in this past month
of fishing, Dot Com and Fish
Hawk have been on a tear,
pulling away from everyone.
We're desperate to start
making some big money this week.
We're marking! We're marking!
It'll happen any
minute, get ready, bro.
We're on!
DUFFY: Yow. Woo!
Yeah, baby!
TYLER: Woo.
DUFFY: Nice run, big fish.
TYLER: It'd be really,
really nice to put
this one in the boat.
Get the stink off.
We've been having some bad
luck over here on the Pinwheel,
and I don't know what we did to
deserve it.
The Tuna Gods have really
been making us earn it.
Right now, we got
one on the line.
It's really important that we
catch this fish right now.
I personally can't watch.
We've lost so many fish that
I just can't even watch.
Me, I can't, I'm like,
gonna projectile vomit.
DUFFY: The end of the season is
super close and right now we
can't afford to miss out on a
paycheck.
TYLER: Every headshake,
every single time this fish
shakes his head I think,
"Oh my God we're gonna pull
another hook."
It's so nice to finally have one
on here, Duff.
We really could use this
fish, the pressure is on,
the competition is fierce.
It is anyone's game.
Brother, let's get this one.
Big paycheck on the line here.
DUFFY: There he is, T, he's
gonna stay up high, huh?
TYLER: This fish
is really important to
get the momentum back.
It's been brutal, it's
been hard on us, the morale
on the boat's been down,
but there's only one way to get
the momentum going in the right
direction and that's to catch
this fish.
To have one on here,
it's a wonderful feeling,
just gotta get this one.
Ah!
DUFFY: Ah!
(beep)! Pulled hook.
TYLER: Dang.
Oh my God, that
really hurts, dude.
DUFFY: Right up in
his (beep) gill plate.
TYLER: Hurts when you see 'em.
Pulled the hook right
there at the boat.
Brutal.
DUFFY: We had
him, dude, (beep).
TYLER: Oh, my God when you see
'em like that, that hurts.
There's a 90 incher right there
on top, right at the boat.
DUFFY: He was so close.
TYLER: All we do is (bleep)lose
fish. All we do!
Been working so hard to get the
bites, finally get the bite.
SANDRO: Uh, Tyler lost him.
That's too bad.
GEORDIE: Oh. We'll send him,
we'll send 'em a card.
SANDRO: Yeah.
DAVE C: Good for him.
BRAD: Oh, he snapped him off.
MATT: Oh! Not Tyler! I like
Tyler.
BRAD: He lost him.
PAUL: What a shame.
TYLER: Oh. Well, there's only
one thing to do and that's
to set back up on the anchor
and put 'em out.
You know, that's why
it's a grind just got
to grind through it.
Just keep on grinding,
hopefully we'll get lucky,
maybe our luck will change.
You're gonna catch some,
you're gonna lose some, that's
just the way it's gonna go.
TIM: Nothing so far, Bubba.
TJ: I'm really proud to say
that this season we've shut
up a lot of the haters,
and performed really
strongly for the most part.
But, the past two weeks we have
not caught a single tuna, and
now we're almost twenty grand
behind the fleet's
two top earners.
DANNY: I see stuff. I see birds.
TIM: Nice.
TJ: So, this week my nephew,
Danny, and my dad are on board
to help us get back on track.
JARRETT: Looking good.
TJ: When Danny and
dad came out with us on a
trip earlier this season.
Woo!
Pa-pow!
We landed two great fish and had
our best payday yet this season.
TIM: The good luck charm.
TJ: Good job, buddy.
So, I'm hoping they can bring
us some luck this trip too.
DANNY: Going once, going
twice, sold to Jarrett Winksy.
JARRETT: Jarrett Winksy?
MIKE: One thing's for sure,
when Danny's onboard he
certainly helps keep morale up
and helps us pass the time.
DANNY: Hey, what's
your last name again?
JARRETT: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Oh, Przybyszewski! Pop?
TIM: Yeah, Bubba.
DANNY: Do you know how to
say Jarrett's last name?
TIM: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Przybys.
Przybyszewski.
Przybys.
You say it, Michael.
MIKE: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Przybyszewski,
Przybyszewski.
MIKE: Przybyszewski.
DANNY: Przybyszewski.
JARRETT: We just marked one.
TJ: Come on, take the bait!
Take it.
Come on! Come on, come on,
take it, come on, God!
Pa-pow, baby!
TIM: Something's on there.
Something's on now.
JARRETT: Ah!
TJ: There he is, a tuna!
TIM: Yeah, look at him.
JARRETT: Woo-hoo!
TJ: Ripple, Reba. Watch out!
TIM: Is it him?
TJ: Yeah, it's him!
MIKE: Yeah, it's him!
TJ: Got him on, baby, Pa-pow!
Here's Jarrett, Dad.
TIM: Okay.
TJ: He's just sitting down
there at 140 feet.
We've got the Polish
Fabio cranking on him.
JARRETT: That's right.
TJ: Come on, guys, this
feels like a big fish.
DANNY: Watch the line.
Looks like he's shaking.
TIM: Uh-hmm. He's shaking his
head.
This thing is just
dogging right now, huh?
JARRETT: He's
starting to get tired.
TJ: We need this paycheck.
TIM: There he is, deep color.
JARRETT: Next one
after this one.
TJ: This could be
worth 10 grand.
Wait, wait, wait. Hold on, Dad.
JARRETT: Next one after this one
TIM: He's still too deep.
TJ: Trying to get him to
surrender to the flow here.
You got to get him here, dad.
TIM: Gonna try, TJ.
TJ: There you go.
MIKE: Watch that line, pal.
TJ: Got him.
TIM: Got him!
Bring him up, come on! He's
right here! Got him.
Come on, get a gaff, get a gaff!
TJ: I can't see
what's going on?
MIKE: Black backing.
I can't see him.
I can't reach him.
TIM: He's still green here, so
don't, don't do nothing hasty.
MIKE: Danny, you stay back.
DANNY: Okay.
MIKE: Stay away from that rope!
TJ: Right here,
he's right here!
Oh no he's, oh, no. Bubby!
MIKE: Ugh.
TJ, what am I gonna do?
TIM: What happened?
MIKE: He took the gaff.
TJ: The gaff's in the line.
TIM: This bastard
don't want to die.
TJ: Get the line. Get the line!
Get the line! Get the line!
MIKE: The harpoon line?
TJ: Yeah.
MIKE: Right there!
TJ: Yes.
MIKE: Ugh! God!
TIM: Lookit, he's still
swimming around black back here.
He's not ready.
MIKE: I'm hooked in, Michael,
I got him. I got him. I got him.
Dad, grab the line. Grab the
line. Got it? Ready?
TIM: Yeah.
Back up, TJ, a little bit.
A little bit! He's going down!
TJ: Why do you
want me to back up?
TIM: I can't hold him!
TJ: I can't see, Bubby.
I can't see!
JARRETT: Wow, he's
still kicking our ass.
TIM: He's still green,
look at this guy!
TJ: I can't see.
JARRETT: You're gonna have to
handline him in. I'm also tied
up here.
TIM: I, I, I got him! TJ, you're
pulling away from him.
TJ: Oh, he's tail wrapped.
Just don't fight, dad,
we ain't gonna get him.
We ain't gonna get him.
TIM: Come on. Somebody get
back here!
MIKE: Just keep coming.
JARRETT: See that line's in a
knot right there. I'm gonna
get it back to you.
TIM: I got him. I got him coming
just get the tail.
We got him, come on, get a
tail rope! Tail rope! Tail rope!
TJ: Come on, tail rope!
Tail rope!
TIM: Come on; get another gaff,
another gaff, another gaff.
That gaff's going to
(beep), another gaff, that
gaff's gonna slip out.
MIKE: You got it around?
TIM: Get the gaff.
TIM: I got him. I got him.
Yeah!
TJ: Oh!
There we go!
Nice work, guys. Nice work.
JARRETT: Nice, baby!
TJ: Pa-pow!
JARRETT: Nice work, buddy!
TJ: Nice job, bro.
(laughs)
MIKE: Yay! Danny boy!
TIM: Wow!
TJ: Things got crazy at the end
of that fight, but we worked
together and we got him.
Hopefully this is just the start
of our success on this trip.
TIM: Whoa! Look at him, Daniel.
And the hook is still in, Dan.
MIKE: Got to go over the fin.
DANNY: Eighty-seven.
TIM: Eighty-seven nice.
TJ: What do you say, baby?
What you say?
DANNY: We'll take him.
TJ: We'll take him?
DANNY: It's really cool
pulling a fish up on the deck
because it's such a big fish.
TJ: Eighty-seven 87, still
we'll take him, baby.
DAVE C: How the hell do they do
that? How does that happen?
SANDRO: Unreal. Wow.
MATT: You want to
dance with the champ?
BRAD: Oh, my God.
MATT: I was just (beep) with
you. Catch 'em up!
TJ: Woo!
JARRETT: I have a good feeling.
DANNY: You just jinxed
us, PRZYBYSZEWSKI.
(laughs)
JOE: Just had two
terns come through.
DAVE M: Oh, yeah?
Those lucky terns. That must
mean it's our turn.
ANGELICA: What do you mean?
DAVE M: Those birds that
do the little high pitched
scrack, scrack, scrack.
Those are called terns.
It's usually good luck.
It usually means it's gonna be
our turn next to catch a fish.
This season will end in a
month's time and while my kids
and I have caught less tuna and
made less money than all of the
other boats in the fleet, we're
not that far behind most of the
pack.
It's not over till the fat
tuna sings and we're not
going down without a fight.
A couple minutes, Joe, we'll do
a bait check and if it looks
good we'll get two lines out.
JOE: Cool.
DAVE M: Then we'll just
sit here and wait for a
big fatty to come through.
And hopefully, that rod
will bend right over.
ANGELICA: I'm ready
for my next one.
DAVE M: Attagirl, that's right.
ANGELICA: One thing I really
love and respect about my dad
is that he never gives up.
No matter how tough things
get, he's always trying.
It's all about just putting one
foot in front of the other.
After not catching anything
last week, we're all focused
on making some good money this
trip.
DAVE M: Our bait is still nice
and lively and frisky, so we're
gonna send him right back out
and wait some more.
PAUL: Every tuna comes from the
bottom, because they feed on the
bottom, that's where they feed.
That's just like us, huh Rick?
Start from the bottom
and go right to the top.
(laughs)
RICK: Yup.
PAUL: Rick and I got off to a
really solid start this season
and we were even the top earning
boat after the first
month of fishing.
But in recent weeks, we hit a
rough patch and went almost a
month without catching a fish,
so we really need to start
making some headway and
earning some big money.
ANGELICA: There's something.
JOE: We just had a couple fish
coming up, up high at 15.
DAVE M: What?
JOE: We're marking.
PAUL: First mark of the week.
From the bottom all the way up
150, right where that bait is.
RICK: Nice!
PAUL: There's another one!
Keep an eye on the floaters.
DAVE M: And now
we're just watching.
JOE: Come on.
PAUL: All right. Big tuna.
Nice to see a mark.
Whoa, whoa. What was that?
Here we go. Here we go. Got him!
JOE: We're on! We're on!
PAUL: All right, Rick!
DAVE M: All right. Here we go!
TYLER: We're on! We're on!
We're on!
JOE: Oh. He's running now!
DAVE M: Now we just got to hope
we can get this sucker to the
boat
PAUL: Whoa, whoa. What was that?
Here we go. Here we go. Got him!
JOE: We're on! We're on!
PAUL: All right, Rick!
DAVE M: All right. Here we go!
TYLER: We're on! We're on!
We're on!
We're on! We're on!
DUFFY: It was a good aggressive
bite. It's a big fish,
it's got some serious weight.
TYLER: He's got
a big bite here.
Really want to capitalize
on this fish, catch
it, get it into the boat.
Earlier today, we
lost a heartbreaker.
Dave Dot Com and Brad
on the Fish Hawk are
on a tear right now,
so this catch means
everything to us.
First thing in the morning,
we got a nice big bite.
Couldn't ask for
anything better.
DUFFY: All right,
bro, let's go to work!
PAUL: We got a bite! We got a
bite! Woo!
We're on!
Ricky's got him on!
It's fun, right?
RICK: It's awesome.
It's why we're here.
PAUL: Nice getting him
on up and down like
that, Ricky, good job.
RICK: It's nice to get
'em on, but then we got
to bring 'em in the boat.
I need to get a lot more
paychecks for my family.
Pauly, he's just taking a little
staying tight, that's all.
PAUL: Thank you.
Oh, he's a keeper,
there's doubt about that.
RICK: Hard on fishing right now.
He's a strong little sucker,
that's for sure.
DAVE M: All right, we had a
tough trip last trip, so we're
looking to redeem ourselves.
Attagirl, hon, yep, great
job, great job. That's right.
That's right, but that's
all behind us now.
It's the second half
of the season and we've
had a great kick off.
Now let's hope we can keep
running with this ball.
TYLER: Big fish.
The pressure's on.
Everyone in the
fleet's catching fish.
The race has never
been this heated.
Come on, bro, we need this one!
JOE: We'll take anything right
now as long as he's 73 inches .
DAVE M: Attagirl.
This fish is a down
and dirty fish. I like that.
Usually when they behave
like that, they wind up being
big fat greasy meatballs.
JOE: Gel's doing a
great job on the reel.
She's getting better
and better every fish.
ANGELICA: Just come
up nice and easy.
DAVE M: Just go easy on him.
A fish of this size could be
exactly what we need to help
turn this season around.
PAUL: Keeping him nice
and tight, that's great.
He doesn't want to be
on that hook, does he?
RICK: No. Coming at us.
PAUL: Cuckoo fish.
Wow, he's got pep, huh?
Nice work, Ricky, nice work.
He's a 90-inch fish.
RICK: Absolutely.
PAUL: This is just what
we need for our comeback.
DAVE M: We're all gonna
feel good if we can
get this one hanging.
The key is when they're
doing this, right?
JOE: Yeah.
DAVE M: With just a little bit
of extra heat on the side.
He just wants the
tip too, right?
And it's just, (bleep) gone.
ANGELICA: Are you kidding me?
DAVE M: He's gone. One shark and
one short.
That was all our action last
week. Now, loss.
Ugh.
This one was gut hooked.
Chewed us off, plain and simple.
We just can't freaking
catch a break here.
ANGELICA: Just sucks when you
do everything right and there's
just like, nothing you can do.
And it doesn't seem like the
odds are in your favor at
all, but we'll keep trying.
DAVE M: Kidding me? Damn.
If it weren't for bad luck,
we'd have no luck at all.
TYLER: Fish is definitely
pretty close, he's right here.
He's up on top, he's tail
wrapped and he's big.
He could break us off, so we're
just trying to be very gentle.
Let's get this one.
DUFFY: Swivel!
There he is!
Get the gaff!
Nice job, T.
TYLER: All right, got him. Get
the tail wrap on there buddy.
All right! He's ours. Whoo.
DUFFY: All right!
TYLER: Doing what we do, baby!
RICK: Coming up.
PAUL: Reel, reel!
RICK: Nice, Paul.
PAUL: You got his meat?
RICK: I got his tail.
PAUL: Good job, Rick.
He's a beauty.
You mark my words; this
is the moment the Wicked
Pissah starts its comeback.
Yeah, baby!
Pretty good. Nice
little fatty, huh?
RICK: Whoo!
PAUL: Fat fish. Payday, baby.
RICK: Pretty fish.
TYLER: Wow! Look at the shape of
this thing!
PAUL: Eighty three inches.
Nice. Good job, Ricky,
really good job.
RICK: Thanks,
brother, thank you.
TYLER: Ninety nine.
DUFFY: 99, all right.
TYLER: Bam!
DUFFY: That's a fat
99 right there, buddy.
TYLER: That is a fatty.
DUFFY: All right, woo!
TYLER: I want another
tuna just like this one.
Let's stick it out a bit longer
and see if we can catch more.
DUFFY: Hell, yeah, buddy.
PAUL: Wicked Pissah,
coming at ya! We got him.
PJ: Nice, Paul, way to go.
Big boy.
PAUL: Oh, yeah, nice color
and everything on him.
What a great start to the
week, a nice big tuna fish.
If the quality is as good as I
think it is, then this baby is
definitely gonna get us
right back on track as being one
of the top earning boats in
the Gloucester fleet again.
PJ: 466 pounds, Paul.
PAUL: What a beautiful fish.
PJ: Yeah.
PAUL: Let's see what
the core looks like.
PJ: Let's check her out.
PAUL: The buyer looks for
color, oil and fat content.
This season our tuna have
averaged about 19 bucks a pound.
I'm hoping this one
gets us a good payday.
What do you say about
this bad boy, huh?
PJ: Big fish. 466.
PAUL: Nice.
PJ: Good inside color, tail
color's nice. Fat's pretty good.
This one here,
20 dollars a pound.
PAUL: Ha-ha! That's a nice one!
I told ya!
RICK: That is a Christmas.
PJ: Nice.
PAUL: That's a good fish.
PJ: Nice payday, Rick.
Way to go.
RICK: Thanks, PJ.
PAUL: That's a nice fresh one.
This is just what we need to
make a dent in the lead that
those top earning boats have
over us.
Let's go get 'em again, come on.
RICK: You bet.
PAUL: We might shoot
right to the top.
TYLER: Been a long season.
Set out this season
to make a statement.
I want to be the best fisherman
in the game, been struggling for
years, good years, bad years.
The last couple years we've
really gotten consistent.
Really starting to
feel like we click.
Yesterday, Duffy and I started
this trip with a loss, but then
finally we landed a nice big
tuna.
Today I'm hoping we can land
another one because we really
need to start making some big
money.
I feel like I can dominate
this whole industry and
that's what it's all about.
But we've got a lot of ground to
make up for in the earnings if
we want to start catching up to
guys like, Dave on the Dot Com.
DAVE C: Sunscreen? You guys put
sunscreen on?
GEORDIE: Sunscreen? I just put
the Dermatone on my lips.
DAVE C: What is it?
GEORDIE: Dermatone.
SPF 25 for lips.
DAVE C: Well that, yeah.
Things are going really
well for us this season.
We're only narrowly behind the
Fish Hawk in the earnings, but
it's just a matter of time
before the Dot Com
takes back the lead.
In the past month of fishing,
Sandro, and Geordie and I have
landed more tuna than
any other boat in the fleet.
It just comes down to
skill and knowledge.
SANDRO: One more bite.
One more bite.
TYLER: Wow, marked a nice one.
SANDRO: Oh, my God! There we go!
We're going off! We're going
off! We're going off!
TYLER: Oh, my God! We just
marked 20 of 'em.
DAVE C: Oh, he's all over it.
He's got to get it.
Oh, he's still on it. He's on
it; he's all over it!
SANDRO: Oh, my God!
DAVE C: Come on.
Oh, look at this,
he's gonna get it.
SANDRO: There he is! There he
is! We're on! We're on!
We're on! Start it up!
DAVE C: Wow!
SANDRO: Watch this line
when you walk over here.
DAVE C: Look at that.
He's pissed off now!
SANDRO: Oh, no!
It's (beep) in gear
what do you want?
DAVE C: Shh! No yelling.
SANDRO: Don't (beep) stare
at it hitting the hull.
DAVE C: You want to argue
about it or we want to fish?
Move over, Geordie.
GEORDIE: Go ahead.
DAVE C: Look at that move.
SANDRO: Easy, easy, easy, easy.
DAVE C: Right now, the tensions
are high for everyone.
We're all fighting for first
place, we're barely ahead of
Tyler on the Pinwheel
and going against him pushes
us even harder.
TYLER: We're on!
DUFFY: Here we go. We're on!
TYLER: We're on! We're on! We're
on! We're on!
Get that other
down rod up, slow.
DUFFY: Woo!
TYLER: The competition's
on, so every bite counts.
Every fish matters right
now, who knows who else is
fighting fish right now,
we all are catching fish.
DAVE C: We need this right here.
Come on, let's get this one.
Come on, Sandro.
Good job, good job.
SANDRO: Reverse,
reverse, reverse!
DAVE C: This is the fish
that's gonna put us back on
top right where we belong.
Good color.
GEORDIE: Swivel.
SANDRO: Forward.
DAVE C: I got it.
I got it.
I got the fish, right here.
Swivel!
He's on top. There he is.
SANDRO: Keep coming back!
Keep coming back. Come on!
Come on! Get him come back,
come back, come on!
GEORDIE: Take the shot!
I got the fish, right here.
DAVE C: This is the fish
that's gonna put us back on
top right where we belong.
He's on top. There he is.
SANDRO: Keep coming back!
Keep coming back. Come on!
Come on! Get him come back,
come back, come on!
GEORDIE: Take the shot!
SANDRO: Are you
(beep) kidding me?
GEORDIE: Piece of (beep).
DAVE C: Oh, (beep).
We started this week only 200
dollars behind the fleet's
current top earner
the Fish Hawk, so this tuna
would have got us back in the
lead, it's disappointing.
SANDRO: What a (beep) joke.
DAVE C: Waste of time.
Oh, what a nightmare.
TYLER: Stay tight on
him, you're doing great.
We landed a nice tuna yesterday,
but we're well behind the
fleet's two top earners.
And with less than a month till
the Bluefin season closes, we
really need to start making some
big money.
So, we need this fish.
DUFFY: Get ready
to come around, T.
Under the boat.
Coming around the bow
hard, hard, hard, hard!
TYLER: boy, let's
just catch this fish.
DUFFY: Deep color.
TYLER: I see it.
Here he is.
DUFFY: Nice, T, get him!
TYLER: Got him!
We got one dart in him,
but we don't have him yet.
He's pissed. This fish is
pissed.
Nice, Duff.
Woo!
DUFFY: Yeah, baby! Hey, we got
half his tail.
All right, baby!
TYLER: Woo!
DUFFY: Missile has
been launched again.
Pinwheel, moving
spots, taking names.
TYLER: Taking names,
throwing darts, breaking
hearts, cashing checks.
DUFFY: Breaking hearts
and throwing darts.
TYLER: Nice, tuna, tuna, tuna.
All right Duff!
DUFFY: All right, let's get a
measurement on this guy, bro.
It's the year I was born,
he's 87, he's a Duffy tuna.
TYLER: Whoo!
Two tuna in two days.
These beauties are just
what we needed to help get
our season back on track.
Duff, let's get back
on the anchor and try
and get another one.
DUFFY: All right!
JARRETT: We just marked one!
TIM: Did we? No.
JARRETT: Yeah.
TIM: Yeah. He's streaking up.
TJ: After two weeks of not
catching, we're finally having
some good luck this trip.
We caught a tuna yesterday and
now we're marking another one.
So, hopefully this
trip is the start of us
turning things around.
DANNY: Oh, my goodness.
TJ: And catching up
to the boats who have been
making big money recently.
There he is, 150,
watch, watch, watch!
TIM: Come on, baby,
come on, baby.
DANNY: We're on! We're on!
TIM: We're on! We're on! We're
on! We're on!
TJ: We're on! We're on!
TIM: He's on!
DANNY: We're on!
TJ: Jarrett, get the
anchor, get the anchor.
Michael, get up!
MIKE: Oh, (beep) (beep).
JARRETT: Whoo!
TJ: Yeah!
JARRETT: Yeah, baby! Yeah!
TJ: Got 'em on, baby!
Good Luck Dan, man.
Good Luck Dan's got
us on the meat, baby. Whoo.
TIM: It's a screamer.
DANNY: It's a big fish.
JARRETT: I think
it's a big fish, man.
TJ: Is it?
JARRETT: Yeah, it's a big fish.
DANNY: Yeah, this is what we
came for, to catch a big tuna.
TJ: Jarrett's down and dirty,
trying to get him to surrender
to the flow and
hopefully we can get him.
Come on, baby, come on, baby.
Oh, come on, baby.
TIM: Yeah, he's dogging now.
Good, dogging makes him tired.
DANNY: Pa-pow!
JARRETT: Go forward, go forward!
MIKE: Swivel.
JARRETT: Swivel.
MIKE: Color.
JARRETT: Forward, go
forward a little bit.
MIKE: Dan, over here.
MIKE: Stand there
and hold that.
JARRETT: It's gonna
be the next one!
DANNY: Watch out,
I want to see him.
JARRETT: Right on TJ's side.
DANNY: Wow, that's a big fish!
TJ: It's always tense.
Stick him!
Throw the dart.
DANNY: Did you get him?
TIM: Got him!
JARRETT: Get a gaff! Gaff!
DANNY: That's big fish!
TIM: Big one! Big one! Big one!
DANNY: Oh, my goodness!
Get the gaff!
MIKE: I'm right
here, I'm right here.
JARRETT: Lower to my right.
DANNY: Pop! Pop!
That's a ginormous fish!
TIM: I got the head. I got it.
MIKE: Tail rope!
DANNY: Tail wrap.
TIM: He's big.
He's got the rope.
He's got the rope on him.
He's got it on.
All right!
JARRETT: Yeah!
TIM: Whoo!
JARRETT: All right.
TIM: Man, you are a
good luck charm, buddy.
(laughs)
TJ: Two nice tuna in two days.
Good job, buddy.
Fish Hawk and Dot Com better
look out because things are
looking up for the Hot Tuna.
DANNY: A big one.
JARRETT: Dan, what do you think?
You want to see how long it is?
DANNY: Yep. 77 inches.
TIM: Yeah!
TJ: Nice, baby, nice.
TIM: He's a keeper,
he's going in the box.
DANNY: Welcome to
the Hotel Hot Tuna.
TIM: Yeah, baby!
DANNY: Pa-pow! Przybyszewski.
JARRETT: That was pretty
damn good, actually.
JOE: Well, this is exciting.
ANGELICA: It's almost like we
were doing this exact same thing
yesterday and the day before.
DAVE M: I know
my kids are frustrated
right now and so am I.
DAVE M: We hooked
up earlier this week, but
lost it close to the boat.
Well, we're sitting
here and we're waiting.
We're hoping for a fish today,
we've had a rough day or two, so
we're just trying to get back
on the playing field here and
we need a confidence booster
if nothing else today.
Knock on wood, there isn't much
else more that could go wrong.
We just need some better
luck, please tuna gods,
bring us some luck.
JOE: Come on!
Oh, there's a fish down at 30.
DAVE M: Right on
that (beep) down rod.
JOE: We're on! We're on!
We're on!
DAVE M: We're on!
JOE: We're on!
DAVE M: We're on
something, here.
Shark.
JOE: Thought we got a fish
for a second, but it just
turned out to be a shark.
DAVE M: I'm trying to stay
calm, but to be honest, it's
getting harder and harder.
A person can only
take so much failure.
Shark. I never mark nothing.
(music)
DUFFY: Marching up to the top.
TYLER: I'm holding the top,
dude, we're just marching away
from the rest of the fleet,
just keep going,
keep going, later!
Over the past month,
Fish Hawk and Dot Com have
pulled away from the fleet,
but neither of them have
caught so far this week.
So if we can get our third
fish here, we'd have a great
chance at taking the lead.
It's nice to actually have
a boat that we can hold
enough ice to sit and stay,
hold enough bait to
fish and compete.
You got everything we need.
Now we got all the tools and
we're putting it to work.
I'm marking 'em pretty good.
All right we need a bite now.
Time for a bite.
DUFFY: We're on!
TYLER: Oh, I'm on! I'm on!
We're on!
Ah!
DUFFY: Wooo. Yeah, baby!
I'm marking 'em pretty good.
DUFFY: We're on!
TYLER: Oh, I'm on! I'm on!
We're on!
Ah!
DUFFY: Yeah, baby!
TYLER: We need this one, Duff!
Got 'em on, baby! Got 'em on!
Anchor, anchor!
DUFFY: This is a big boy.
TYLER: Go, Duffy!
DUFFY: Down and tight, baby!
TYLER: Hooked up, hooked up!
On my third.
BRAD: Woo!
TJ: This is (beep) up, so
Tyler's got, he's got three.
SANDRO: Guy's having
a (beep) year.
DUFFY: Nice fish here, line's
a little bit crazy, but
I'm getting (beep) situated.
May see this guy sometime soon.
TYLER: Come on, Duff,
we need this fish, baby.
DUFFY: Yeah, brother, we got
him.
TYLER: We get this one, it's
gonna put us in a good spot
on the leaderboard, bro.
We got to take every
single bite serious.
It's do or die.
DUFFY: We're
gaining on him now.
TYLER: Dude, we are pros.
We are doing what we do.
Down and tight, We're
smoking everyone.
The young bucks. We outfish all
the old bucks now.
DUFFY: Gonna be like
a basketball game, you
got to box 'em out!
Deep color, deep color!
TYLER: I see him, I see him.
DUFFY: There he
is, there he is, T.
TYLER: Oh, deep, deep color.
DUFFY: Yup.
TYLER: No doubt this
is a hundred-incher
DUFFY: Drill him, brother!
TYLER: Get him!
DUFFY: Nice shot!
TYLER: I got him! Tail gaff!
Woo! Yeah, buddy!
Take that, Dot Com!
Oh, he's getting away!
DUFFY: Not if I have
anything to say about it!
TYLER: Yeah, Duff!
DUFFY: All right!
TYLER: Pinwheel, baby!
DUFFY: All right!
TYLER: Woo!
Yeah, buddy!
DUFFY: That's what
I'm talking about.
TYLER: Woo!
Ka-kaw!
It's our show now.
It's a big one.
Wow, a big Bluefin.
Yeah!
(laughs)
DUFFY: I was just gonna say
where's Timmy when we need him?
TYLER: Oh, my God!
DUFFY: That's a real one, dude.
TYLER: First place, right here.
Let's get a measurement.
I got to know.
What do you got?
DUFFY: 109 and a half.
TYLER: Wow!
DUFFY: Yeah, buddy!
TYLER: Our biggest
one of the year!
DUFFY: Our biggest
fish so far, brother.
TYLER: 109 and a half
is the biggest tuna
aboard the Pinwheel.
Wow, we feel some
real weight right now.
Great job, Duff.
What a great season.
First place, right here.
TJ: Hot Tuna is en fuego.
What's happening, Scottso?
SCOTT: What's going on, guys?
TJ: We got two
onboard today, buddy.
SCOTT: All right.
TJ: We got two with Daniel.
SCOTT: Nice,
let's check them out.
TIM: This is the
one Daniel caught.
DANNY: I caught both.
TJ: After two weeks of not
catching anything, I couldn't
be happier to have these two
beauties to sell.
DANNY: How does
it look, Scottso?
SCOTT: 210 pounds. 305 pounds.
DANNY: Nice.
TIM: Whoa! Nice butterball
there.
TJ: Want to get some tail cuts
and core samples, we'll come up?
SCOTT: Yeah, come on up.
TJ: They look nice.
SCOTT: Yeah.
You did a good job, bud.
DANNY: Thanks.
SCOTT: So, this one right
here, a little bit of fat in
him, good color, good core.
We'll get you guys
18 dollars a pound
TJ: Whoo, nice, nice!
TIM: Nice. We'll take that.
SCOTT: And with
this one right here.
TJ: That's a nice fish.
SCOTT: Good shape on him.
Good core on it.
That'll do
19 dollars a pound.
TIM: Woo!
TJ: Pa-pow, baby!
MIKE: Very good job, Daniel!
MIKE: That's our
good luck charm.
TJ: Pa-pow!
Hot Tuna is back in the game.
Those other guys
better look out.
DAVE M: Sooner or later
we should be able to bump
into a fish I would hope.
I've caught a lot of fish
here, but the whole trick to
this game is when to be where.
ANGELICA: I can't
help but worry and I
know my dad's worried.
It's been almost three
weeks since we've landed
Bluefin and got a paycheck.
DAVE M: The baits are
fine; let's see if we
can get on some fish.
ANGELICA: This week boats have
been catching a lot of fish
and making some big money,
but all we've managed this
trip is to lose a big tuna
and hook up to a shark,
so we can't afford to have
anything else to go wrong.
DAVE M: We just got
to wait some more.
This spot, like all the
spots I've hit, I've caught
a lot of fish in the past,
let's just hope
it's hot right now.
Well, we're fishing.
There's a couple
down there, Joe.
Looks like -looks like
one, looks like one, so looks
like he came up a little bit.
JOE: Dad, we're on! We're on!
We're on!
DAVE M: We're on!
We're on, got him?
JOE: He's taking all the line.
DAVE M: We're on a fish.
DAVE M: I want to get up on him,
Joe, but I got to get this in
first.
This is not good.
A tuna has swum around
our anchor line, and
with all the friction,
the fishing line or even
our anchor line could part.
We just can't afford to lose
any more money this season.
Fish (beep) sawed off a
thousand dollar anchor.
The (beep) fish.
Every (beep) time, we get (beep)
right (beep) (beep) (beep).
Can't catch a (beep)
break this (beep) season.
Five thousand dollars for a
(beep) pump, another thousand
bucks for a (beep) anchor.
Should just cut this
(beep) line now, what
the (beep) (beep) over.
(beep)! We got to get this one.
This tuna had better be big,
otherwise this is gonna put
us even further in the red.
(beep) (beep) (beep) (beep)
(beep) (beep) (beep) (beep).
ANGELICA: Once again, we
have another fallback.
We lost the anchor and
he has to somehow buy
a new anchor I guess.
DAVE M: (beep)
rotten, (beep) prick.
ANGELICA: This is the first
time in a long time that
I've seen my dad this upset.
DAVE M: (beep)! Wow!
ANGELICA: My dad can handle
a lot, but this one just
pushed him over the edge.
JOE: There's a swivel!
DAVE M: Gonna get that
(beep) stinker up.
Deep color!
Pull him into me now.
Pull him in.
It's not a monster,
but it's a keeper.
-Not good
-There you go.
Yeah, it's legal, but this
is definitely the smallest
tuna of the season.
Wow, (beep)!
JOE: There's a swivel!
stinker up, Deep color!
Pull him into me now.
Pull him in.
It's not a monster,
but it's a keeper.
-Not good
-There you go.
Yeah, it's legal, but this
is definitely the smallest
tuna of the season.
Wow, (beep)!
JOE: It's a lot of pressure
and sometimes you just, it
builds up and you just snap,
so it just happens.
DAVE M: Fish sawed off a
thousand dollar anchor.
For a (beep) 200 pound fish.
We would have been better
off not (beep) catching it.
Drove all the way out
here for (beep) nothing.
Drive all the way (beep)
home and throw some
more (beep) money away.
Man, God just loves
(beep) shoving his (beep)
(beep) up my (beep) man.
What a (beep) up season.
What a (beep) up (beep) year.
74 and a half
Just over the 73-inch minimum
length 200-pound fish.
He sawed off a
thousand dollar anchor.
We can't even fish for more fish
now because we (beep) lost our
anchor because of this (beep)
(beep) (beep) (beep).
JOE: Just when we thought
it was starting to go
our way, we just (beep),
another thing happens.
ANGELICA: Again, we're still
operating at a negative.
It (beep) sucks.
(music)
JUDY: Hey, guys.
TYLER: What's up, moms?
DONNA: Hi.
Glad to see you here safe.
TYLER: I always get
us in safe, mom.
DONNA: My first concern.
GUT: I keep an eye on 'em ma.
DONNA: Yeah, you just pay
'em a good price, Gut.
TYLER: Got three
beauties for you, Gut.
GUT: Oh, nice!
TYLER: And really
putting the pressure on
the rest of the fleet.
They're all doing
the Dot Com twitch.
GUT: Here we go.
All right, let's check 'em out.
TYLER: It's great to be greeted
by our moms and it's even
sweeter that they're seeing us
bring back a big catch.
Brother, what we got?
GUT: 253. 359. 533 dressed.
TYLER: Beautiful!
DUFFY: Woo! All right, bro.
JUDY: Good job,
guys, great fish.
TYLER: We're coming
up to check it out.
At the start of the week,
we were trailing Fish Hawk and
Dot Com by more than 14 grand.
Both of them struck out,
so there's a chance that
we could take the lead.
Hi, mom. How you doing?
DONNA: Hey, the fish look great
guys.
TYLER: Good to see you, mom.
DONNA: Oh, honey.
DUFFY: Good to see you.
TYLER: All right, Gut.
What have you got for us?
GUT: This one here.
It's a decent fish, good core.
Not loaded with fat,
but it's got some fat.
I'm gonna give you 16.
DONNA: Oh, no way.
GUT: Sorry, it's a wreck.
What can I tell you?
TYLER: I see it. I see it.
GUT: The little
one's got some fat.
Got a real nice core.
DONNA: Look at those veins.
GUT: Oh, yeah, yup.
19 dollars.
TYLER: Wow, awesome, Gut.
Beautiful. Beautiful.
GUT: This one here.
DONNA: The big boy.
TYLER: All right,
ring the bell come on.
GUT: That's a nice.
TYLER: Ding, ding, ding.
DONNA: That's a beautiful fish.
You have to admit it.
GUT: That's a good fish there,
a lot of fat, core's not bad.
DONNA: The core's beautiful.
GUT: That one there,
I'll give you.
TYLER: The lead is gonna
come down to how much
we get for this fish.
GUT: 19 dollars.
TYLER: All right! Bingo!
Good job, dude.
DUFFY: Ringing the bell!
TYLER: Almost 21 grand.
That's exactly what we need to
head into the homestretch of
the season with a handy lead.
Pinwheel, baby.
JUDY: Good job. Get some rest.
TYLER: Peace and love.
DAVE M: All right,
Scotty, we got one.
It came at a price, though.
He sliced off our
anchor on his first run.
SCOTT: Wow, there
goes your check.
DAVE M: Yeah.
After going almost three
weeks without a fish
we finally landed one.
But we lost a thousand-dollar
anchor in the process.
It's hard; we just can't seem
to get a break this season.
What do you got, Scotty?
SCOTT: 177 pounds dressed.
DAVE M: I'm not sure it was
worth the price, but it's better
than a sharp stick in the eye,
I guess.
So far this season our
fish have averaged about
20 dollars a pound,
so I'm hoping this fish is
good quality too because God
knows we need a good payday.
Am I at least gonna break even?
SCOTT: Mmmm. You know, he's
a bit of a skinny fish.
Kind of rubbery.
There's really no fat to it.
I'd have to say you're gonna get
7 dollars a pound.
DAVE M: Well sometimes steps
forward are just baby steps.
Baby steps?
This fish barely covers
the cost of the anchor.
Looks like it's the dollar menu
for us tonight for dinner.
I think the next trip I'll call
it a success if nothing breaks.
NARRATOR: With only three wees
until the end of fishing,
Pinwheel's triple catch
pushes them back into the lead
for the first time in seven
weeks and good quality fish
for Hot Tuna and Wicked
Pissah keep them in the race.
Meanwhile, Hard Merchandise's
disappointing payday puts them
even further behind the pack.
TYLER: Woo! First place on the
leaderboard is ours, baby.
Come on!
MATT: No, really
how old are you?
TYLER: Twenty-nine, bro.
MATT: You talk like
you're (beep) 50 you got the
experience of a 75 year old.
I don't know how you're only 29.
DAVE C: Right, Geordie?
GEORDIE: What's that?
DAVE C: If we had all
the answers to fishing
we'd be millionaires.
GEORDIE: If we had all the
answers to fishing, I bet we
wouldn't be sitting here.
DANNY: Tyler sucks. I hate him.
No one likes him.
TIM: Nerd. Poser.
TJ: I can't stand
to listen to him talk,
like, complete rubbish.
PAUL: Tyler works
really, really hard.
I know he's catching
a lot of fish because TJ
talks about it every day.
(laughs)
TYLER: Thanks for playing.
Woo! Yeah!
