Here we go.
Drew: Big one, big one.
Bobby: She's gonna blow!
Narrator: On this episode...
Cliff: There he goes!
Got 'em on!
Jarrett: Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Narrator: A grueling season...
Dave: I'm tired.
Tyler: Oh, boy.
Narrator: Competing against
the best of the best...
Jarrett: Woo!
Nick: Yes!
Paul: Woo!
Narrator: Is taking its toll
on the crews and their boats.
Greg: I guess we're
camping another night.
Narrator: But with the
end of the season in sight...
Dave: Come on.
We got to get this one.
We have to.
Greg: We're all right here
within a fish of each other.
Shane: Oh, god, don't let.
Narrator: It's time to
break out from the pack...
Dave: Oh, please.
Tyler: Oh, there he is!
Want us to let your
families know you're alive?
Greg: Oh, my god.
Narrator: Or break
down from the pressure.
Bobby: [bleep]!
Can I get updates?
I need an update.
Narrator: This is...
Marissa: Woo!
Dirty: Stick him!
Sandro: Back the boat up.
Back the boat.
Come on, come on, come on.
Bobby: Welcome to
the outer banks.
[thud]
Oh!
Gets your blood going.
Narrator:
Wicked tuna outer banks.
Billon: I don't know who's
got that voodoo doll,
But they're sticking it hard.
Narrator: Pinwheel
leads the fleet,
But with less than $5,000
separating the top five boats,
It's still anyone's game.
Meanwhile, last year's
champion reel e' bugging
Trails by a large margin.
Drew: Let's go get 'em.
Bobby: Oh, boy.
Here we go.
Drew: The bar is gonna be
a little ugly this morning.
Bobby: Gonna be terrible.
Drew: Yup.
Bobby: We've been in last
place almost the entire season.
So we can't let a couple
waves keep us at the dock.
The bar is gonna be
absolutely terrible.
We're gonna trust that
this old boat can handle it,
But it's certainly not
gonna be comfortable.
Here we go.
Oh, this is gonna
be better than a [bleep]
rollercoaster, man.
Drew: Going for a ride
on the reel e' bugging.
Bobby: Welcome to
the outer banks.
Oh!
Gets your blood going!
How's my clearance on the port?
Drew: Good.
Bobby: I cannot see.
Can you see?
Drew: Yes.
Bobby: 11-foot right here.
Now find me a buoy.
Drew: You got this.
Brian: You're good.
Bobby: All right, boys.
Oh, yeah, we're gonna start
taking spray in the face.
She's gonna blow.
[thud and spray]
Took that in the mouth.
This is a rough place to fish.
The ocean conditions
here will destroy a boat.
Nice. My boat is old.
It's been getting
pounded by the ocean
for 50 years, 5 decades.
And, you know, you're
worried that the boat at some
point is just gonna give out.
We got two big
ones coming, guys.
Hold on, boys.
Here we go.
Drew: Big one. Big one.
[thud and spray]
All right.
Two coming to your left.
Bobby: Left?
But right now we just
have to finish strong.
I mean that has to
be my only concern.
Get as many fish as we can.
One big one. One big one.
One big one.
Drew: A big one coming.
Bobby: Here we go. Here we go.
Drew: Big one. Breaker!
[thud and spray]
Bobby: Wow! Another one.
There we go.
Drew: All right, we should
be over the worst of it.
Bobby: I found out where
every cut on my face is
from that saltwater, bro.
Truth.
Oh, that'll wake you up.

Jarrett: Missed something.
We got bit on a ballyhoo.
We missed it.
Tj: Oh, [bleep].
Jarrett: Teeth marks on it.
Tj: Ugh, makos, no bluefin.
Today's a very, very
important day for us.
Pinwheel's in
the lead right now,
but we're a very close second.
We really need this
early morning bite
to take that top spot.
But these tunas,
They're making us work
for them this year,
there's no doubt.
But still early.
We're on scene and
trying to make it happen.
[clapping]
Jarrett: Yeah!
Here we go.
Brandan: Damn,
it's cold as [bleep].
Cliff: We caught 'em
in cold water before.
Maybe there's a
little rip right here.
I kind of see bigger
whitewater stretched out.
Nick: The fishing
season wears you out and
we are tired to the bone,
But we can't relax.
Pinwheel's taken the lead,
But me and tj are
nipping at its heels.
I want that lead back bad.
There was 64 degree
water outside today on 615,
Thinking if we
can find just a pocket.
We don't need a lot of water,
just a pocket.
[beeping]
There's a mark. There's a mark.
Cliff: They're
turning straight.
They're turning straight, nick.
Stick's off to the side,
it's not fishing good.
There you go.
Brandan: Trying to look
for a hungry dumb fish.
That's what we need.
Come on, fish.
[beeping]
Tj: Oh, [bleep].
Watch that stick.
Got a good mark.
Jarrett: Man, we
really need this one.
Tj: All right.
We'll get him any minute.
Any minute.
[beeping]
Nick: Marking a
single fish here.
Brandan: That's all we need.
Nick: Oh, I know that.
Brandan: First thing
we've seen all day.
It's just good to get excited.
[buzzing]
Nick: We want water outside
of the boat, not inside.
That's how boats sink.
Brandan, you can
stop jigging, brandan.
[groans]
See if we're pumping water
out from the bilge pump.
[beeping]
Jarrett: Come on,
bluefin, baby.
[tension snap]
Oh. There we go.
We're on! We're on!
Oh, yeah, he's dumping it.
Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-h*-hoo!
Woo!
Cliff: Hey!
Nick: Yo?
Jarrett: Woo! Yeah!
Good-size fish.
I don't know, man.
It feels weird.
Tj: [bleep] he
better be there.
I think he's gone, bro.
Jarrett: No, he's not.
Feels like he's
still there, man.
Tj: I think it's gone.
Jarrett: [bleep].
That was him.
Yeah, it pulled the hook, man.
Tj: Oh, man. We had him on.
Jarrett: Oh, god.
Tj: Just pulled the hook.
Coming towards the end
of the season, you know,
This one-a-day retention
limit's there in place,
And if someone has
a couple good days and
you kind of fall behind,
You're not gonna catch 'em.
So mentally it's
exhausting down here.
That was a heartbreaker, man.
That was our ticket home.
Cliff: What we have is a,
These bilge
pump float switches.
They're called
high water alarms.
If water gets up here these
switches automatically float
up and turn on the bilge pump.
One of these switches
had got stuck.
And when it gets stuck like
that, the alarm comes on.
Anyway we just reset it.
We're good to go.
[sighs]
Everything's all right.
Nick: Yeah.
Cliff: It was just a
stuck float switch.
Nick: I got you.
It scared me for a minute.
I thought we was
taking on water.
The little shell's not
gonna worry about that.
We're just gonna put our
head down and go fishing.
Cliff: At least
we know it works.
Nick: In case of a water crash,
Your seat cushion will turn
into a floatation device.
The exits are located
here and there.
Do not push, do not shove,
do not panic.
Cliff: Floor lighting
will not light up.
Shane: The last
pack of bait, fellas.
Five baits for five makos
if we do it right now.
Zack: I don't know if it's
cold water pushed in that's
making these makos bite but
Everybody's getting
smoked by makos.
Whenever there's a
change in the water where
it goes from cold to hot,
Makos like to ride
right on that change.
Right now that change
has pushed through
the tuna grounds.
We need to be catching
tuna right now and this
sure ain't helping.
Oh, give us a bite, lord.
Daniel: Probably
not a shark bite.
Zack: Yeah.
Give us a tuna bite.
[beeping]
We're marking 'em.
Shane: That would
be so nice if that mark
would hit that rod.
Zack: We got some
marks right here.
[beeping]
[reel clicking]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
We're on!
Yeah, baby! Hooked up!
Daniel: We're on!
Yeah, baby that's what
I'm talking about.
[barking]
Shane: Yeah.
Zack: Shark again?
Shane: Yeah. Shark!
Zack: Darn makos.
Hold the head.
Shane: I got it.
What you want?
Zack: Hell, I don't know.
Shane: Oh, god,
don't let him...
[zack grunts]
You all right?
Zack: [bleep] sharks.
That's just a
kick in the nuts.
We're taking a
beating literally.
That's where he about got me.
Shane: Yeah.
He got close to you.
Daniel: He got your pants.
Shane: Oh, damn.
Zack: Yeah, he did.
He took a big old bite
out of my bibs right there.
It got mako holes.
Luckily he didn't
puncture my leg.
He could have did some damage.
Shane: There's a
artery right there.
We'd have to
tourniquet his leg.
Try to fuse up the cuts.
Stop the bleeding.
Shane: I got you. I got you.
"dr. Britt."
I got my doctorate from
green swamp university.
Seriously.
I think it might have
to get amputated too.
Zack: Maybe our luck's
turning around, you know.
We don't got a tuna bite,
but I still got a leg.

It's the fishin' frenzy.
Marissa: Hey.
Tyler: It's been a long

been out here grinding
With nothing to show for it.
I think these tunas
might be getting tired
as the rest of us.
Hi frenzy.
Greg: Good evening.
[menacing laugh over radio]
Tyler: Good evening.
Maybe we can have a really
nice time and we won't
have to say good morning.
Greg: I won't be
saying good morning.
Tyler [over radio]: Definitely
will not be saying good.
This is the time we
wait for all day.
About an hour and half
before the sun sets.
Call it magic hour.
Everything can

Because you can magically
go from being a zero to
Being a hero by
catching a fish,
Getting in there
before the midnight cutoff,
Save your day, save your

Right now, we're
in the top spot.
We've been working our butts
off all season to get here,
And we can't let up now.
If we want to stay
ahead of the fleet,
We can't rest for
even a second until the
Season's closed.
Marissa: What the tuna?
Come on.
[beeping]
Tyler: Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

Marissa: Lgo.
Tyler: What's that one doing?
That one's going out too?
Marissa: Yeah, this one.
This one's on.
Tyler: We got a double on?
Marissa: Yes.
Tyler: Woo!
We can only keep
one of these fish.
This thing's coming
in at mach 7.
With two on the line though
that's twice the opportunity
to stay in the lead.
We got a lot going on.
But first, we got to
clear these lines and keep
the fish from crossing,
Or we could lose both
of our tickets home.
Merm, get on that back rod.
We worked hard all
day for the bite.
Now we got way too many bites.
Hooked a pair, got
a double on here.
[bleep] 745 and
I don't even know.
Greg: He's got a double on.
Great.
Billon: No. Double hit.
Right now,
tyler's the top boat.
He just hooked a double, so.

k*ll us to see tyler land
another fish ahead of us.
We got to make this count.
Dirty: Mine's gonna be bigger.
Billon: Yeah, ours
is gonna be bigger.

Marissa: There he is.
Tyler: Oh, there he is, merm.
How's he look?
This thing might not
even be a keeper.
All right, reel
in the other one.
Marissa: Okay.
Tyler: Let's put all our
marbles in that one, merm.
This fish is too small.
We're gonna let this fish go.
To legally keep a bluefin
for commercial purposes,
It has to be at least 73 inches.
It's super important because
if you obey the size limits,
It allows the fish
to get back to the
Stock and reproduce.
That's what makes this
a healthy fishery.
Marissa: Bye, tuna.
Tyler: Later, tuna.
Greg: Pinwheel's
down to one fish.
Dirty, how we doing?
Dirty: Really doing anything.
Kind of swimming at us.
Oh, [bleep], damn yellowfin.

[bleep] frustrating.
Billon: Dinner.
Greg: Absolutely incredible.
I've never had this [bleep]
happen in my [bleep] life.

[bleep] trolling a bite,
I'll put a bait down on top
of 'em maybe we'll get lucky.

Dropping down on 'em.
Woo!
Greg must be marking
'em right there and he's
gonna drop down a bait,
See if he can't go tight.

There's three guys on
all these other boats,
It's just tyler and I.
And it's a lot of work
just the two of us.
It's hard but we have
a pretty good routine.
We're doing pretty good.
Hey, mary what are we
looking at for a weight?
Mary: We got 365
pounds dressed, guys.
Tyler: Perfect, merm.
It's a nice fish.
Marissa: It's a good fish.
Mary: It's a nice size.
Tyler: All right.
Let's check out the tailpiece.
The buyer's looking for
a clear core that isn't
burnt and a lot of fat.
If we have that,
We can extend our
lead over the fleet.
How you doing on this
wonderful night, mary?
Mary: I'm doing pretty good.
It's not real fat here,
but I think it is creeping
in in the major lobes.
Let's check out the core.
Looks good.
Tyler: Looks like a good fish.
Mary: I think so.
You got another good one.
Tyler: What can we
get for this fish?
Mary: Um...
I'm gonna say $12 a pound.
Tyler: That's decent.
Thanks so much, mary.
Mary: Great job.
Marissa: Thank you, mary.
Mary: All right.
Hopefully you can get some rest.
Marissa: We really

Let's put him in the boat.
Let's get a good look at him.
Cliff: All right?
One, two, three.
Hold it. Hold it. Hold it.
Nick: Lower him down.
Brandan: It looks
like a nice one.
Nick: Hold it on him.
Let's see.
Brandan: How about that?
Nick: Yeah!
Cliff: Yeah! Hey, pretty work.
Brandan: He's bigger
than I thought.
I mean, it took us all
day, but we still got one.
Drew: Light 'em up, bobby.
We got to go in and
get supplies, maybe
get a little rest.
Bobby: Let's get the
flock out of here.
Go!
We've been on the water for
a couple of days now and the
only excitement we've had has
Been engine problems.
So we're gonna head
back in and regroup.
Drew: Hey, bobby.
Bobby: What?
Bobby: Really?
Drew: Might be
burning the belt.
Brian: I don't like
a smoking engine.
That's the worst thing
that could happen
out here is a fire.
There's nowhere to go.
Bobby: I need an
update for god's sakes.
Drew: Hey, brian.
Brian, I need a
bottle of water.
Bobby: Can I get
a [bleep] update?
I need an update.
Brian: He's coming up now.
Bobby: All right.
Brian: Can I tell bobby
to start the motor?
[cough]
Drew: Yeah.
Brian: Hey, start it up.
Drew: We have a, there
are heat blankets around
the exhaust tubes.
We had a little oil get
into one of the blankets.
So the oil was smoking.
I've removed the blanket from
around the exhaust tubes and
doused it with water to keep
The smoke down.
We should be good to go.
Bobby: Oh, there you go.
Brian: You good?
Bobby: Good.
Brian: Oh, that's good.
Hey it's on, drew.
We're on.
Bobby: We didn't need
that right now though.
I'll tell you this.
This is our second engine
malfunction in two days.
After this season's
over, I think my boat
could use a little r & r,
Just like my crew.
Brian: Never a dull moment.
Never a dull moment.
Greg: Waiting for a bite.
Maybe they're waking up.
They're getting ready
to come through here.
Billon: You good?
I might stretch out for a bit.
Dirty: Okay.
Billon: I'm standing by.
Holler at me.
Greg: This season's coming
to a close fairly quickly.
It's tight.
All the boats are, we're
all right here within
a fish of each other.
But pinwheel's the
boat to beat right now.
Luckily for us though,
I guess the two of them
are just about worn out.
Tyler: Oh, boy.
I just tried to stand
up and all that would
move was my arm.
Greg: I'm sure that's
gonna be a factor in how
he finishes the season.
At this point of the
season, the rest of the
fleet is losing steam.
It's our opportunity
to take the lead.
Let's go ahead
and make a move.
Dirty: Give her a try.
Greg: If we want
to do that, we cannot
go home empty-handed.
And unfortunately, we have
not had any luck here today.
Nick's got 'em on.
Tyler's got 'em on.
We suck.
[reel unspooling]
I got 'em on.
Billon, wake up.
Take your balloon and move
it to the other corner.
I was getting ready to move.
I started cranking
it up we got a bite.
Billon: How about that?
Greg: Can you get
on it for a second?
Billon: Yeah, I got it.
Go ahead.
Greg: He's well-rested.
We'll let the young
guy fight him.
Dirty: Yeah, we'll let the,
yeah, I see him reeling
on it and it come tight.
Greg: I think he felt the
weight and he swam up.
Dirty: Uh-huh.
Billon: We needed
this one, man.
Put a jacket on.
Dirty: What?
Sleepyhead. No.
Billon: Boy.
Dirty: Boy.
Billon: Boy.
Dirty: Not really acting
like anything, just
kind of on top swimming.
I can't see it, so.
I don't know
really what it is.
Just hoping, being
careful, it doesn't loop
back towards the boat.
Greg: Weird when he's
up on top like that.
He's not down and dirty yet.
Dirty: Yeah.
Billon: Yeah.
Greg: I don't know.
They act weird at
night sometimes.
It's not really
acting like a tuna.
Billon: Yeah, I don't know.
Greg: Doesn't make
a difference what
we think it is,
We're gonna fight
him like a tuna.
We got to make
every fish count.
Come on.
Get his a*s up here.
See him black-backing.
Just out of the light.
Billon: Oh, there he is.
Dirty: Tuna.
Billon: Well, we know
that's what we want.
Dirty: Where is he?
Billon:
I see him right down here.
Greg: Not very big.
Billon: Big enough.
Dirty: Swivel's in the
water, fish is right here.
Billon: I feel like he still
ain't really settled down.
Dirty: Let's get a
shot on him here.
Swing it out to the right.
Billon: See him
glowing back there.
Just stick him, right?
Greg: Let's get him, boys.
We're gonna see him here,
he's coming up.
There he is.
All right, stick him!
Stick him!
Dirty: Oh, damn.
Billon: Coming up again here.
Dirty:
He's getting close.
Stick him! Nail him!
Greg: You get him?
Dirty: Damn.
Greg: Point blank.
Dirty: Stick him! Nail him.
Greg: You get him?
Dirty: Damn.
Greg: Point blank.
Dirty: No, he's right here.
Billon: Got him that time.
Tail rope.
Greg: Right side.
Dirty: Right side.
Greg: We got his a*s.
Dirty: High-five. Woo!
Greg: Let's just
get him in here.
One, two, three.
Dirty: There we go.
Greg: Going down.
Billon: Damn, he's growin'.
He's grown a little bit
since we hooked him.
Greg: Put a tape on him.
Definitely worth the wait.
Billon: Yeah, 105. Damn!
Dirty: I think if this
one could talk he'd say,
"oink, oink."
Nick: Another nail in
the coffin, boys.
Brandan: Yes, sir.
Cliff: What's up, buddy?
Brandan: What's up, man?
Scott: What's going on, guys?
Nick: Got you another one.
It's a 90-incher.
Scott: Not bad. Not bad.
What do you say, you want
to get it up, check it out?
Nick: Yeah, let's do that.
Cliff: Okay.
We really caught this
thing in the final hour.
If we would have
caught it an hour later,
We wouldn't be
fishing tomorrow.
You know, we're tired.
We just had a long day.
We just got to suck
it up and keep going.
Nick: All right, what's
the dressed weight, scotty?
Scott: You're looking
at 303 pounds dressed.
Brandan: That's 3-0-3 more
than we had when we left.
Nick: All right.
Well, let's take a look at it.
Scott: All right, guys.
Another nice fish.
Nick: Yeah.
All we catch is nice ones.
Scott: All the fat
in the minors here.
With this really light color,
it might be a little burned.
Let's see if it's all right.
Scott: Okay. Looks good.
Scott: Bottom line.
I could get you guys...
$15 a pound.
Nick: Yeah.
Brandan: All right.
Cliff: Pretty work, cap.
Scott: All right, you guys.
Have a good night.
Good luck.
Cliff: Appreciate it, bro.
Brandan: Yes, sir.
Cliff: There's a lot of good
guys fishing so we're just
gonna put as much time on the
Water as we can and hopefully
we'll come out on top.
Nick: We just made
it on this one.
We got to get back
out there and we can start
fishing in like 45 minutes.
Paul: Who wants
a cup of coffee?
Be the brew pub in here.
We'll be opening for
business in 10 minutes.
Sandro: I'll take one.
Paul: Sandro will
take one too.
You guys just need to...
Sandro: Yeah.
I want that one.
Paul: Oh. That's a house.
After being on the
water in the outer banks
For a few days,
you get restless.
You get agitated.
You get aggravated.
Ooh...
Nobody has slept.
I mean, sandro catnaps
here and there.
Dave, you're all set
right at your chair.
Black lemon.
Dave: All right.
Thank you very much.
Paul: I mean, dave,
he don't sleep.
He's all wound up.
Mentally, we need
to stay focused or it's
gonna ruin our fishing.
We have got to be
in-sync with each other.
[beeping]
Sandro: Oh, my god.
We got to go off.
Eat it.
Paul: Hey, we're
in the zone right?
Sandro: Yeah.
Paul: They're just all over.
We just got to wait for
them to bite, that's all.
Dave: There he is.
There's one there.
[beeping]
Wow.
Look at that stack there.
Crazy they're not
eating for us.
Sandro: I don't get it.
Dave: I can't believe we're
not getting a bite right now.
[reel unspooling]
We're on! We're on! We're on!
We're on! We're on! We're on!
Back off of that drag.
Paul: Told you all of a
sudden, you get a bite.
Sandro: Here we go.
Dave: Oh, about time.
Now we just got
to hang on to him.
Oh, please.
Sandro: Hey, jump on.
I got to get my jacket.
It's cold.
Dave: Damn.
Paul: Right, dave?
Dave: Straight to the bottom.
About time.
Paul: Feel like a
nice big heavy one?
Dave: Big boot.
No, he's a big fish.
Sandro: Let's make it count.
Dave: Come on,
we got to get this one,
we have to.
I'm tired.
Dave: All right. Ready?
And go.
Dave: Let's get him, payday.
Paul: Let's hope so.
I'm happy we got
a hook up, baby. Woo!
Paul: Look at
you boosting him. Woo!
Coming right up. Yeah!
Wow.
Dave: Now that the sun's up,
I'm calling this in.
Sandro: There it is.
We got color now.
Dave: 797 714.
Sandro: Yeah, I got color.
Dave!
Dave: I'm coming. I'm coming.
Sandro: Dave!
Color, color, color! Dave!
Dave: Yeah.
Sandro: Right here.
Get the harpoon ready.
Dave: I'm right here.
Sandro: Dave, come on! Let's go!
Dave, let's go!
Dave, back the boat up,
Back the boat, come on,
come on, come on.
Paul: Where is he?
Sandro: He's
going to the left.
[bleep].
No, no, no, no, no.
Not that way. Other left.
Paul: I can't see him.
Sandro: [bleep].
Had him right there.
Dave, back the boat up,
Back the boat, come on,
come on, come on.
Get the harpoon ready.
Paul: Where is he?
Sandro: He's going to the left.
Not that way. Other left.
Paul: I can't see him.
Sandro: [bleep].
I [bleep] had him right here.
[bleep].
[bleep] our shot
right f[bleep] there.
That was a [bleep]
gimme right there.
Paul: We'll get him.
We'll get him.
Dave: Tired?
Sandro: No, I'm
just [bleep] pissed.
Dave: Huh?
Sandro: Pissed.
Dave: About what?
Sandro: We had a
chance right there.
Dave: You gonna keep thinking
about that or are you gonna?
Sandro: Yeah, I am. Sucks.
Dave: Well, we might
as well just forget it.
Sandro: Hopefully we
[bleep] land him now.
Paul: You got him.
You got this.
Sandro: I hope so.
Taking line now.
Dave: I know.
Stubborn fish. Tough.
They're not all gonna be easy.
Paul: Looks like
he's coming back up.
Sandro: Coming up. Coming up.
Coming up. Color.
Dave: Color.
Sandro: There he is.
Forward left.
All right. Reverse.
Neutral. Come back. Come back.
Back, back, back, back, back.
Dave: Got to engage, sandro.
Relax.
Dude, you got to relax.
Be happy.
Why are you so angry?
Sandro: Because I've
had six hours of sleep
in the last four days.
Dave: All right.
Sandro: I'm a
little [bleep] edgy.
Dave: Dance with
the tunas here.
Very close.
Paddling down.
All right, good color.
Game time, boys.
Paul, get that dart ready.
Sandro: Now you can stick him.
Neutral, neutral, reverse.
Dave: I got it.
Paul: Go back. Go back. Go back.
Dave: Stick the thing.
[grunt].
Sandro: Belly shot.
Yeah. Get the gaff.
Paul: All right. Sanchi.
Okay, ready?
Pogo stick. Up, baby.
Dave: Up, up, up.
It's not ours yet. Up.
Paul: Up and out, brother.
Yeah!
Dave: All right. All right.
Now we got him.
Paul: Woo!
Dave: That's a big b*stard.
Sandro: Hold on. Watch out.
Paul: Nice fat one, sandro.
Dave: Uh-huh. We got him.
Ready?
Sandro: Go ahead.
Paul: Go ahead.
Oh, yeah.
Dave: Yeah.
Paul: Woo!
Dave: Yes, sir.
Paul: Measure that bad boy up.
Sandro: Woo. Big one.
Nice-looking fish.
Dave: Are you happy now?
Sandro: Yes.
Paul: He took a
beating for this fish.
But all's it takes is
a tuna to make sandro
extremely happy.
That's all it takes.
Sandro, are you happy?
Give me a hug, my brother.
Come on.
Sandro: It's all right, bro.
Paul: I'm happy for
you being happy.
All right, dave.
We can head home.
Dirty: Good lord.
The way it should be.
Worked out just right.
Greg: We're exhausted, mary.
You guys should say we're
not buying any more fish
until after the weekend.
Mary: We're at your mercy.
You decide to
go fishing I'm gonna be
here getting your fish.
Greg: Well, he's a big one.
Let's pick him up
and find out how big.
Mary: Love to.
He's got a big flipper.
Billon: Big rudder.
Greg: We didn't make it in
by the midnight cut off,
but this fish is so big,
Time may not even matter.
This monster bluefin could
take us back to the top.
What's he weigh?
Mary: 530 pounds dressed, guys.
Dirty: Wow.
Greg: I didn't think he
was as big as this fish is.
Dirty: I know, dude.
Mary: Nice job.
Greg: Good.
Let's see what he looks
like on the inside.
Mary: Okay. Let's do it.
Greg: Since we're off the
water for the rest of the day,
We need a good
price per pound to make
this trip worth it.
Mary: All right. Here it is.
Look at that. All that fat.
You see the veins, the
marbles through there?
Let's see what the
core color looks like.
Dirty: Guarantee
you it's beautiful.
Look at it.
Mary: And judging by the
color of the core, it's gonna
be I think a really good fish.
Greg: We're coming to
the close of the season here.
So we need as good a
price as you can get us.
Mary: I'm gonna say...
$16 a pound.
Billon: We'll take that.
Greg: That's like five grand.
Wait that's like eight grand.
I'm too tired for math.
Mary: Thank you
very much, guys.
Greg: Thank you.
Dirty: Thank you.
Mary: I'll be seeing you.
Greg: I would say we won't
rest until we're back on top.
But with that kind of paycheck
and a day off the water,
I think we can afford
to take a power nap.
Money in the bank.
Sandro: We had to wait
all night for a bite.
Dave: That was
pretty frustrating.
Sandro: Yeah, that was tough.
Scott: What's up, sandro?
Sandro: A nice one.
Scott: Oh, yeah?
Sandro: Oh, yeah. 99.
Scott: So it's 99 inches
but a tuna ain't one.
Dave: Pretty much.
Sandro: Yeah.
Dave: Let's get him up.
All right.
Sandro: Oh, yeah.
That's a beauty.
Dave: This place
is tough, you know.
This isn't gloucester.
You know, this is
the outer banks.
It's a lot of running.
We're tired.
We're worn out.
You know, it's a grind.
What's the dressed
weight there, scott?
Scott: Looking at
Paul: And it's beautiful.
Scott: Yeah,
let's check it out.
Dave: All right, let's do it.
Uh-huh.
Sandro: That's a beauty.
Paul: Talk to me.
Scott: This is a nice fish, man.
Paul: Yeah.
Scott: Really nice color.
It's just so greasy.
Paul: It's like butter.
Sandro: Yeah, it is.
Scott: I mean, just look
at the toro on this fish.
It's just so fatty.
Dave: It is.
Scott: If the core is good.
You guys are good.
Dave: Let's get it over with.
Sandro: Hey now.
Paul: Wow.
Scott: This is the
money fish right here.
Very nice.
Dave: Well, with all
that said, scott.
Paul: What do you think?
Dave: Yeah.
[sighs]
Scott: Bottom line,
we can get you guys...
$18 a pound.
Paul: Yeah! Sandro.
Thanks, man.
Scott: All right you guys.
Dave: Thanks, scott.
Appreciate it. Thank you.
As tired as we are,
this is the final push now.
We're trying
to stay energetic,
We're trying
to stay motivated.
You know, this could
be over any day.
Let's go.
Clock is a tickin'.
We still got to keep
catching a fish every day
and I want to get some sleep.
Narrator: Fv-tuna.Com's
heavyweight fish knocks
Pinwheel out of the top spot.
But fishin' frenzy and
little shell stay within
striking distance.
Meanwhile, hot tuna plummets
from second to fifth place.
And reel e' bugging
remains down for the count.
[snoring]
[thud]
[thud]
Marissa: Tyler, what's
that thumping noise?
Tyler: When the quota starts
getting full, I want to be
actively fishing coming down
The final stretch
because these are the last
paychecks you're gonna get.
Merm, will you drive
for a little bit.
I need a little sleep.
But at the same time,
I believe the good
captain knows when to
bring in reinforcements.
Marissa: Nap one up, tyler.
Tyler: All right.
My sister's out here to help
me do whatever I need to do.
And right now,
I need to catch up on some
much needed sleep because
We've been fishing hard.
Marissa: Tyler doesn't like
to miss any of the action.
But I am a master captain,
So I do know my
way around the waters.
[beeping]
Tyler: What happened?
[yawn]
I don't want to
go back out there.
Marissa: Tyler, come on.
[tyler groans beeping continues]
