Adam: We all have a
shot at the top spot.
Reed: I know we
can make it happen.
Tyler: But there can
only be one champion.
All: And you're
looking at him.
Narrator: All season long...
John-michael: Woo!
Narrator: The new...
Zack: Woo!
Narrator: Southern...
John-michael: Bring it!
Bobby: Butterball.
Narrator: Blood...
Zack: Rasta rocket.
Narrator: Has
imposed their will...
Brian: That's
how you do it, boy.
Narrator: On
the northern fleet.
Marciano: Straw that broke
the camel's back right there.
John-michael: Yeah!
Zack: Woo!
Narrator: But now...
Bobby: Oh. Holy. Wow.
Daniel: This is it, boys.
Y'all ready?
Narrator:
With two days left...
John-michael: Woo!
Narrator: In the season...
Reed: Please baby jesus,
let us finish up strong.
Tj: We're gonna be neck and
neck right to the bitter end.
Narrator: It's all-out w*r...
Banks: There he is. It's on.
Reed: Come on, baby.
Steve: We're on!
Banks: Right on.
Narrator:
For the championship.
Bobby: This fish
is everything.
Tj: Go big or go home.
Narrator: Who
will rise to the top?
Zack: Pick the rod up.
Narrator: In this
winner-takes-all...
Tyler: Come on, merm.
Last day of the season.
Make it count.
[screams].
Narrator: Cut-throat...
Bobby: Game over.
Narrator: Competition.
Brian: Hot tuna's
gonna cut us off, bro.
Bobby [over radio]: Tj, turn
it over to port if you can.
Narrator:
This is the finale...
Adam: I don't know
what you all wanna do.
Bobby:
Big wave, brian. Hold on.
Tyler: Just close
your eyes and reel.
Keep on reeling.
Reel your heart out.
Marissa: Whoa!
Narrator: Of
wicked tuna: Outer banks.
Reed: Let's show these
yankees how it's done.
Narrator: With
only 48 hours left,
local legend
kahuna leads the fleet.
But fellow southern boats
offshore outlaw,
reel e' bugging, and
rasta rocket continue their
as*ault for the top spot.
But northern boats pinwheel
and hot tuna are only a couple
of fish away
from taking the lead.
Eric: Today we're
super stoked, man.
We're out of here, first boat.
We gotta get a big jump.
Lot of competition.
We're a slow boat.
So we gotta go.
We will finish at
the top off the fleet.
Adam: Clear.
We're outta here.
The quota's done tomorrow.
We have till tomorrow
night to bring in two
more bluefin, and that's it.
We've been at the top of
the fleet and the bottom.
But right now we're
less than two grand
behind the lead boat kahuna.
All we gotta do is
what we've done all season,
bring home the bluefin tuna.
Eric: We know that with
this team, we're unstoppable.
Adam: Keep your
eyes open, fellas.
Eric: That's the worst part
about this is that bridge.
I've been through this
inlet millions of times, and,
uh, every time
feels like the first.
Adam: I can't see a
damn thing, dude.
Eric: Once you commit,
there's no backing down.
Adam: That don't look good.
Eric: That don't
look good at all.
John. John, let's
pull the stick out.
Hold it. Got it?
John-michael:
Yeah. I think so.
Adam: How we looking, fellas?
Eric: Dude, the
current's left to right.
Adam: I can't
see nothing, dude.
Everybody hold on.
John-michael:
Oh, that's close.
Eric: Everybody good?
Adam: Almost gave
myself a heart attack.
John-michael: Yeah.
I, I puckered up.
I ain't gonna lie.
I was like, "damn.
That's close, man. Come on."
adam: How close?
John-michael: We're
talking inches, man.
Uh, it was close.
Adam: Oh, man.
You get hurt going
under the bridge.
You can hit the bridge,
you can tear your boat up.
I don't know.
I guess it was
just my lucky day.
But it doesn't always
work out like that.
We're gonna get one, fellas.
We gotta.
John-michael: Got to.
Outlaw's gonna win
this stuff, buddy.
Reed: We'd love to catch
one early this morning.
Hopefully catch a big one
to bring to the scales.
Where do we need to be?
Where do we need to go?
Up or down?
We need to figure
that out quick.
Hope we make the right call.
The giant bluefin
tuna season is closing
tomorrow night at 11:30.
At that time,
our paychecks for these
fish will cease to exist.
We've now got less than
stand and take home that title.
We're in the lead, and
I intend to stay there.
Banks: Hoping for the best.
Steve: Put my
money on this guy.
Reed: We gotta get one.
See if we can stumble
across a dumb one here.
Hopefully, a big dumb one.
Pinwheel in our sight.
Need to go away from him.
Tyler: Nothing stays the same.
Everything's
constantly changing.
And when you're fishing
down here in the outer banks,
never expect two
days to be the same.
Never.
It's all about coverage.
There's boats everywhere.
So hopefully we can find this
freaking fish 'cause I wanna
catch mine.
Even though we can only catch
a maximum of two fish between
today and tomorrow,
we're only 5,300 bucks
behind the local og, kahuna.
So all that we need is two
jumbos within the next two days,
and we really could end
this season atop the fleet.
It's always disheartening when
the season's coming to an end
'cause these are the last
paychecks we make
for this summer.
Should have caught some more.
All right.
What are you hearing?
Marissa: Nothing, tyler.
They wanna go duck hunting.
Tyler: Hopefully, we can catch
up to some of the other boats.
Brian: Another day on the rip.
Bobby:
Everything's uptown, bro.
All the bites are 29 to 40.
Brian: There's the
rocket, running right there.
♪ rocketman ♪♪
zack: Them other
boys better watch out.
Rasta rocket.
They a little bit
slower than we are.
Daniel: That's what happens
when you bring your living
room with you.
Zack: Woo! Rasta rocket!
Brian: We heard about a bite.
We're trying to get up
the road a little bit,
see what they're doing.
Got hot tuna right behind us.
Drew: Hey, we may
hook a hot tuna.
Tj: That looks like the
reel e' bugging above us.
About a mile our position,
but with this gulf stream tide,
we're going
about nine, ten knots,
we'll be
there in about five minutes.
The rasta rocket must
have heard something too
'cause he's next to us going
mach 30, that little rocket.
Mike: Game time.
Great light. Sun's coming up.
Going ballistic
around us right now.
Brian: See if we can
get number 14 today.
That'd put a, a stranglehold
on the competition.
Man [over radio]: 69 and 32.
Bobby: 69 and 32.
I'm on 69 and 25.
Right ahead of me, man.
We've overcome so many
obstacles already this year.
I'm completely confident that
we could claw our way right
to the top.
You know, we turned around
and jogged right back out here.
Five-hour jog.
Brian: Oh, look
at that right there
busting next to the boat.
They just busted right there.
Bobby: They busted
in front of me too.
[beeping]
oh, we got marks.
50 feet.
Give me a minute.
Drop them back, bro.
We got more.
Brian: Yeah.
It's tight right here, bobby.
Bobby: I got marks
at, like, 50 feet.
[beeping]
tj: Bubby, here they come.
Get ready. Watch that [bleep].
Jig it.
Jarrett: Jig em, jig em, jig em!
Tj: Keep an eye on them.
Bobby: Look at all
these marks, bro.
Drop some bait back.
Oh my god.
Look at these marks.
Steve: Oh, is that a tuna?
Banks: Where?
Steve: Straight back.
It might have been a dolphin
but it looked like a bluefin.
Banks: This guy saw
something bust behind us.
It's like, I don't know
if they're, what it is.
There's something
pushing, like, two-tones.
Steve: I think
there's a lot of two-tones.
Banks: Don't worry, boys.
Getting ready to happen.
Marissa: Um, we have
a good mark there.
Good mark.
Tyler: It's game on.
The quota's over.
We gotta make it happen.
It's now or never.
Bobby: Oh, boy.
Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
Oh my god.
It's about to happen.
Jarrett: Marking the
[bleep] out of them.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
brian: There he is.
It's on! It's on!
Clear the lines.
Bobby: Fish on!
We're on. We're on.
Bobby [over radio]:
It's bugging.
We just got tight.
Reed: [bleep] bobby.
Tyler: Marking them.
[beeping]
come on, tuna.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
we're on!
Marissa: Wow. What?
Tyler: Oh! Oh [bleep]!
Still there? Dammit.
Lost one, got one, merm.
Lost one, got one.
[bleep]. Lost them both.
Broke them off.
Broke them off.
Merm.
Just broke, clean cut.
Probably on the double hookup,
the lines were together
and cut each other off.
Brian: You like that?
There he is.
Drew: There he is.
Whoop, there he is.
Whoop, there he is.
Uh-oh. We're doubled up.
Doubled up.
Brian: Double.
Drew: Doubled up.
Bobby: All right. Doubled up.
Drew: It's a double.
Double. Double.
Double, bobby.
Brian: It's a big fish.
I think mine just pulled off.
Just pull off. Dammit.
Bobby: He off?
Brian: Oh, he's off. Dammit.
Bobby: Keep them,
put the baits back in.
Get them both off.
Put them back out.
Brian: Oh, I'm
still tight, I think.
Bobby: What?
You still there?
Brian: There he is.
Fish on.
Oh, I still got mine, bobby.
Bobby: Nice.
Brian: Bobby!
Hot tuna right behind us.
Oh, he's getting close
with his line, dude.
Hot tuna's going
right over it.
Drew: Line's right over it.
Bobby: Tj, we're back on.
We're back on.
Brian: Yeah. We're [bleep].
We're [bleep] right now.
Hot tuna's gonna
cut us off, bro.
Bobby: Tj, turn a
little to port if you can.
Brian: Go right through there.
Bobby: We're tight again.
Bobby [over radio]:
Turn a little to port.
Little to port.
I'm stretched the [bleep] out.
Tj, turn a little
to port if you can.
Tj: All right, bobby.
Turning now.
[bleep] everyone is hooked up.
I feel like we're the only
boat in the middle of an
absolute bloodbath right now
without a bite, so, oh, boy.
I feel like the falcon.
Everyone around us is
getting blown apart, bro.
Bobby: Clear?
Brian: Yeah.
Uh, we got him.
We got him.
Bobby: Okey-doke.
We need this fish.
For me, losing is
just not an option.
The rest of this fleet should
be petrified about bugging
taking this win.
Brian: We're gonna
have color any second.
Bobby: We're putting heat on
him, I'll tell you that, bro.
Brian: I got color.
Deep color.
Bobby: You got deep color?
Brian: Yeah. He's right there.
He's right here.
Forward, forward, forward.
All right.
He's pinwheeling.
He's coming up
right there, bobby.
Make it count.
I'm picking him up right here.
Bobby: Deep, dude.
Brian: Got him.
Get him over here.
Bobby: Watch that
stuff behind you.
Drew: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right.
Brian: That's our [bleep]
bird in the hand, boys.
Number 14.
Bobby: We're winning.
We're winning, bro.
Brian: That's a nice fish.
Drew: Yeah! Number 14, baby.
Bobby: I said at the beginning
of this season that we were
gonna win this thing.
And as we get closer and
closer to the closing bell,
looks like I was right.
Ah! Not a bad one.
Brian: Yeah.
We got an 89 incher.
Bobby: Hey, adam, I got
a 111 incher, dressed 760.
Adam [over radio]:
Yeah. Right.
John-michael: Damn, if
he got a great big one,
he, he should
be right there too, man.
Eric: Yeah. He's been a
threat the whole season.
John-michael: Yeah.
But he's caught some
bigger fish too, so.
Tyler: Oh my god.
Marissa: Oh, no.
He got one today already?
We gotta get a bigger one.
Tyler: Yeah. We do.
Reed: I'm not even
gonna count you out.
[bleep] not even a little bit.
Bobby: All together. Ready?
[porky pig stutter]
all: That's all, folks.
Bobby: You got to fish
everyday like it's the
last day of the season.
Marissa: Should I make a turn
and go back up into the fleet?
Tyler: No, no, no.
Let's keep migrating north.
Marissa: I think
the southern boats
still consider us a threat.
It's way too close for
them to count us out.
We've worked so
hard this season,
there's no way we're
gonna let these last two days
go without catching.
You want an
english muffin, ty?
Tyler: Whatever you're making.
Marissa: Do you want
peanut butter or butter?
Tyler: Yeah. Whatever.
I'll, I'll eat anything.
I don't care.
[beeping]
marissa: We're marking.
A wolf pack.
Tyler: Slow it down.
Slow it down.
Marissa: Huge wolf pack.
Tyler: Marking them.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
we're on! We're on! We're on!
Marissa: Sorry, toaster.
Tyler: Clear the rods!
Clear the rods! Clear the rods!
Clear the rods!
Come back here, try
and rig everything up.
As soon as I get baits
out we're going right off.
Merm's fighting the fish.
Marissa: Feels
like a heavy one.
Got a lot of energy.
Tyler: Keep it tight, merm.
Keep it tight.
You're doing good.
Marissa: Every fish
fights differently.
This one's just pulling down.
Tyler: Merm and I can
hang with the big boys.
You gotta think every
other boat out there
has got two deckhands.
Don't even weigh
[bleep] half of bubby.
Good job, merm. Good job.
Keep the heat on him.
Keep the heat on him.
Reel, reel, reel.
Reel, reel, reel.
Keep reeling. Keep reeling.
Keep reeling.
Marissa: There's four
boats ahead of us, but
it's still a tight race.
If anyone can climb up
the ladder, it's tyler and I.
We're gonna get this
one in the boat if it's
the last thing that we do.
Tyler: Doing good, merm.
Doing good.
Marissa: He's coming around.
Tyler: Push the rod
right up the back.
Marissa: Oh my god.
What's happening?
Tyler: We can't lose this fish.
Merm!
Tyler: We're gonna lose him.
Easy. Watch the line.
Marissa: Oh my god.
Tyler: Push the line
away from the boat.
We've really gotta
get this one, merm.
Anytime that line
rubs up against the boat,
it can cut off or break,
get stuck in the boat,
part off.
There's a million things
that can happen when that
line gets close to the boat.
Another bump in forward.
Tight. Tight. Tight.
Neutral. Neutral.
Marissa: What's going on?
Tyler: There he is.
It's all good, merm.
We got it under control.
Marissa: Oh my god. Color?
Tyler: Color. Deep color.
Marissa: Nice color. Ooh.
Tyler: Once you get a
big fish under control,
he kind of does
the same pinwheel pattern,
so you keep going in
that pattern, you'll
eventually catch him.
We got to catch up to
these southern guys.
We need redemption.
Reel it in, merm.
Reel him in.
Marissa: There he is.
Tyler: Easy on the swivel.
Easy on the swivel. Easy.
Get him, merm. Get him.
Now or never.
Wait. Reel, merm.
Marissa: Hit him.
Tyler: Got him. Tail gaff.
Watch out, we're
in full reverse!
Come on, I'm tangled up here.
Tail gaff ready on my side.
Yes! Tail rope.
Marissa: Yup.
Tyler: Get him in, merm.
Marissa: We got him.
Tyler: Woo! What a butterball.
Marissa: Oh my god. Jumbo.
We wanted this guy.
Tyler: Woo! Woo! Yes!
Marissa: Woo! Jumbo!
Tyler: That's how
you salvage the morning,
with a nice big boy.
That's a big fish.
This is exactly what we needed
to do, catch a monster bluefin
today and still have tomorrow
to catch another one
before the season's over.
The southern fleet better
run 'cause the pinwheel's
gunning for them all.
Take that, kahuna.
We're coming for you.
Marissa: Whoa!
Tyler: Hey. Hey.
Marissa: What?
Wow.
Tyler: What a pig. What a pig.
What a pig. He's a jumbo.
What are we looking at, merm?
Marissa: 90 inches.
Tyler: Wow. We got him.
Marissa: We did. Nice work, ty.
Tyler: Thank god, sis.
Good job.
Marissa: We got a huge jumbo.
Tyler: I was worried.
Marissa: I knew
you had it, ty.
Tyler: Magical merm.
Bobby: Bed bugs!
You ready to rock and roll?
Got you another one, dennis.
Dennis: Right on, bobby.
Tomorrow's the
last day for fishing.
Bobby: We'll get you
another one tomorrow.
Dennis: All right.
Let's see what you got.
Bobby: Boy, did
we need this fish.
We're battling it out with the
best of the best fishermen,
but we're not
gonna give an inch.
Dennis, what is
the bottom line?
Dennis: 279, dressed.
Bobby: Ah, we'll take that.
Let's see what
the quality's like?
Dennis: Right on.
Bobby: Prices had been all
over the board this season.
So I'm just hoping
dennis can find the
consistency, the color,
and the fat content to give
us a good price on this one.
Dennis: Pretty little fish.
Really nice red tail color.
Bobby: Alright.
Let's see the core.
Dennis: Well, nice
beautiful red tail.
Bobby: Right.
Dennis: But very
cloudy, pasty core.
The fact that it has
nice tail color and
some fat, it's still,
you know, it's not a disaster.
Bobby: Bottom line, dennis.
Dennis: $16 a pound.
Bobby: Oh, thank you so much.
We'll take that.
Brian: Thanks, dennis.
Bobby: All right, man.
So if tomorrow's the last day,
we're gonna have
to go get a slob.
We're gonna make our
last run our best run.
That's all there is to it.
This competition's so tight.
Every dollar can
make or break you.
So we can't let up.
Here we go.
Game time.
Jarrett: Oh!
Tj: Right there, dead whale.
Mike: Whale
carcasses definitely
bring in marine life.
You know, there's gonna
be big sharks circling it.
Little fish
underneath it eating off it.
And you could sure as
hell smell it right now.
Throwing off so much oil,
it's a huge slick,
so drive down
the slick for a little bit,
see what happens.
Not sure how it
died but he's dead.
Holy [bleep].
Great white or a huge mako.
Look at its head out
of the water on it.
Wow. See the size of the
head on that thing?
Tj: We need to find
some bluefin right now.
And this dead whale with this
shark feeding on it is
probably not the spot to be.
If this is an omen
of things to come, I'm
hoping that we're the shark and
not the dead whale.
Tj: It's not the
bluefin we're looking for,
but it's pretty cool no doubt.
Full on jaws.
Mike: Don't wanna
go in the water.
Jarrett: Never know what
you're gonna see out here.
Banks: Hey, uh, reed.
Are there mammals around?
Steve: Yeah. Pilot whales.
Banks: Oh, they are whales.
Reed: What is it?
Banks: They're whales.
Reed: Whales or dolphins?
Banks: Pilot whales.
Reed: When we started today,
bugging was less
than two grand behind us.
But since they've
caught a fish, I'm sure
they're ahead of us now.
Drew: Phew.
Reed: And to add insult
to injury, the northern
boat pinwheel caught today too.
While the only thing we've
done is not get a hookup.
Steve: Hopefully
something happens here.
We could use a bite.
I know that.
Reed: Hey, a lot of
things are at stake.
Mortgage payment that I'm
a month and a half
behind on right this second.
Being the only local boat from
wanchese this season, it is a
lot of pressure on us.
We don't wanna let our
hometown down, you know.
We wanna come through and
we wanna be at the top.
Banks: Come on, man.
We need a fish.
Just one little,
little guy or something.
Reed: It's already taking
way longer than I was hoping.
[beeping]
hmm. There's a mark.
Holy [bleep].
First one I've seen today.
Banks: A mark.
Reed: First [bleep] mark
I've seen in a long time.
Banks: Come on.
Steve: Wishing on a star,
waiting on a tuna.
Reed: It's coming.
Banks: There he is.
[breaker snaps]
oh!
Reed: Let him. Let him.
Let him.
We're on. Yeah baby.
Hooked up. Woo!
Banks: Pow goes the breaker.
Reed: There we go.
Let him run, baby.
Let him run.
Banks: Cut the hydraulic on.
Reed: Woo!
Banks: You got this?
Reed: Yup.
Banks: Holy [bleep].
Reed: We're on.
Please god,
let him stay connected.
Reed: About time.
Please god, let
him stay connected.
He's swimming right at me.
Better get some
gloves on, man.
Got the dart ready there?
Steve: Yeah.
Reed: This fish is crazy.
Cannot get him to
settle into the fight.
Careful.
I'd rather not lose this one.
Banks: This is
definitely a bluefin.
Reed: Bump her ahead one
time while I put my skins.
Banks: Huh?
Reed: Bump her ahead
while I put my skins on.
Open your ears.
We're gonna see
him in a second.
Hey, put her in
gear for a sec there.
All right. You know
the concept of in and
out there, chap?
Steve: Yeah.
Reed: [bleep]. In and out.
Steve: Man, we need this one.
Reed: Got color. Deep color.
It's like a little short.
Doesn't feel
very big right now.
Ah, it's a short.
There's the little short guy.
In order to keep a bluefin,
they have to be 73
inches overall length.
And this one, I can
tell was definitely
not gonna make that.
Yup.
Ain't gonna be big enough.
It's important to
release the small fish because
they're gonna grow up,
and one day that
might be the 700 pounder
you bring to the scales.
Banks: Gotta do our
part for conservation.
Reed: Little guy.
See you later.
Steve: Good luck, buddy.
Next year.
Reed: You'll get hooked again.
Gone. All right.
Put her in gear.
It's definitely tough
on the nerves more than
anything to fish all day,
you finally get a bite,
and then it's a short.
You know, you, you
get your opportunity,
and now you
realize you're not
taking one to the scales.
Woo.
That sucks.
Short fish.
Nothing you can do about that.
Steve: Ah. I should
have said I want a big one.
Tyler: Woo! Got him.
Merm, tie up a line.
Marissa: Tyler is the biggest
goofball, and that's why he
has this pineapple
suit on today.
How could dennis not give
us a good price with tyler
wearing the pineapple suit?
Marissa: Really?
Tyler: What's up, dennis?
Dennis: Mister pineapple.
Tyler: How you doing?
Dennis: I'm good. I'm good.
You ready for some margarita?
Tyler: Thank you
for a great season.
Dennis: Thank you.
Tyler: You're welcome.
Dennis: Uh-hmm.
Tyler: Well, let's
check out this one 'cause I
think it's the best one yet.
Dennis: All right. Right on.
Tyler: Yeah.
I wanted to wear
the suit all season.
Figured it was a good
way to honor duffy, and
today's the day to bust it out.
The season's coming to
a close, and I might not
catch another fish this
season so it's now or never.
Plus, we need all the
luck we can get right now,
and hopefully this will help.
Marissa: Dennis,
what's the weight?
Dennis: 407 pounds, dressed.
Marissa: Wow, that's awesome.
Tyler: Woo,
400-plus 90 incher.
You don't see that every day.
Dennis: Let's check it out.
I'm, I'm just mesmerized
by the fat content in this.
Tyler: Look at it.
Dennis: You know, no place
where you can really see the
color because it's all fat.
It all depends on
the core color.
Tyler: Bring it on.
I ain't even worried.
Dennis: Well,
it's a little dull.
You know, there's
no translucency.
Marissa: What?
Tyler: Really?
Dennis: Seriously. Yeah.
Not a super fish.
The color is off a little bit.
Tyler: I mean, what do you
think you can do for us?
Dennis: Um, it's a decent
fish, but no translucency.
You know, rather dull.
It's gonna be $17 a pound.
Tyler: Perfect. You know,
it's not the best prices
in the world,
but just happy to have the fish.
Thank you, dennis.
I know we still
got one more day,
but thanks so much
for a great season.
Dennis: I, I really enjoy
doing business with you.
You caught some really
nice fish this year.
Tyler: Woo!
Let's go home.
Marissa: Thank you, dennis.
Dennis: Right on, guys.
Tyler: See you later.
Maybe we'll catch
another one tomorrow.
Rock on.
Almost seven grand for
this fish is a great way
to set us up for the
final day of fishing.
We got one more day to
try and climb the ladder,
so anything is possible.
We will be the first northern
boat to win down here.
The almighty pineapple. Woo!
Narrator: With less
than 48 hours left to fish,
reel e' bugging
jumps into the top spot
with their $4,000 fish.
While northern boat pinwheel
rockets into second with
their lucky pineapple haul.
But the clock is running out
for the rest of the boats to
make their final paychecks.
Zack: We got to find the fish.
But we didn't hook up.
Zack: So we're pretty beat.
Right now it's just
mind over matter.
We can't let our exhaustion
cause us to lose focus.
There's so little
time right now.
We have to make
it across the finish
line with two more fish.
I mean, how incredible will
it be when we wind up being
the top boat in the fleet?
Zack: That's right.
Daniel: When zack's
driving with his feet,
you can usually
tell without having to look.
You, you get a
little zigzag-y.
But, you know,
sometimes it just adds a little
character to your sprint.
[beeping]
zack: I got a little mark
of something right here.
We got marks right here.
That's another fish.
[beeping]
anything can happen.
Persistence pays off,
hopefully.
Come on, baby.
Joe: It's about to
be game time, huh?
Travis: Yeah, man.
Joe and I are
refreshing everything up.
Putting new
worms on the hooks.
Hook us one.
Joe: All right.
This is game time.
Been waiting all day for this.
Marciano: Been a
very slow day for us.
So hopefully that'll change
here, and these fish will
pop up at sunset.
Joe: Just gotta find the right
ones then we're gonna chill.
Travis: I think we put the
old freckle belly out there.
What do you think?
Joe: I'm feeling that.
Marciano: 6:00.
After sunset.
If we're gonna
get in by midnight,
we need a fish on
the deck by 8:00pm.
We're hoping we can
make it happen, but
my optimism is fading.
Travis: When you are
on the fish and you have
a pretty swimming bait,
makes all the
difference in the world.
Marciano: Real soon here.
Real soon.
The clock is ticking.
Eric: Well, we're
gonna switch gears here.
Gonna start trolling.
Gonna rig up some ballyhoo.
Gonna dress him up
with some nice skirts.
Trolling some baits around.
Adam: With the
season coming to an end,
it's really important that we
continue to bring paychecks in.
We all got bills and
families to pay for.
But don't get me wrong,
we still wanna beat
reed on the kahuna and
exterminate bobby bedbugs.
I know we can do it.
Never underestimate the
underdog or the long shots.
Eric: Let's start right here.
Cross this right through here.
Belly.
[beeping]
adam: Got a mark.
Got a mark. Got a mark.
Marking him, dude.
Come on, bluefin.
Got a mark at 130.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
eric: There.
John-michael: There he is.
Fish on. On. Got him on.
Eric: Oh, that's him.
That's him.
Adam: That's him right there.
Take it easy.
We got him.
Take it easy.
John-michael:
Time to go to work.
Woo! Come on, baby.
Come on.
Eric: Is he gone?
Eric: Oh, that's him.
That's him.
John-michael: That's him.
That's him right there.
John-michael: Come on.
Eric: Is he gone?
John-michael:
He's still there.
Adam: They come up
quick in the dark.
Thats the right one, fellas.
I'm always super nervous till
we get the tail rope on him.
Eric: Forward a little bit.
Adam: My paycheck's on
the other end of that line.
He's not mine yet.
John-michael: Leader.
Adam: Woo! Come on baby.
Eric: What the hell is that?
John-michael: A shark.
It's that shark?
It's a big-a*s hammerhead.
Damnit!
Hooked in the
side of the head.
Adam: Oh, I
thought that was him.
Eric: Hook's out.
There he goes.
Adam: That is so
disappointing.
John-michael:
Can't believe that. That sucks.
Adam: Damn. This is
not the end of the season
that we were hoping for.
And time is running out.
But if we can grind it
out and get a good fish, we
still have a chance at first.
We just have to
keep pushing as hard
as we can till the very end.
John-michael: Damn.
That was a lot of
work for nothing.
Adam: Just part of
the game though.
Could have been the
right one, just wasn't.
I would have bet my
life that was a tuna.
Reed: It is finally the
last day of the season.
Steve: One more day.
Reed: That's it.
We got no quota left.
Better hope we can catch
one today or we're
really gonna look like losers.
Banks: Let her rip.
Bobby: All right gentlemen.
You ready, bro?
Drew: Let's go.
[boat horn]
bobby: Let's do it.
Get it, boys.
Bobby: Due out? Yeah.
Joe: All right. All clear.
Marciano: All clear?
Joe: Yup.
Marciano: Let's
hope we can get lucky
and squeeze one more.
Tyler: If we can catch
one more fish, it's gonna
do a lot of things for us
on the leaderboard.
Time to roll out
and go fishing.
Marissa: This is the last day.
Got to make it count.
Tyler: And away we go.
Zack: We got a lot riding today.
Today's the last day.
We've been looking forward to
it and not looking forward to
it at the same time,
but the
government says it's time.
It ends at 11:30 tonight,
so it's important
that we catch today.
I'd like to end
it on a good note.
Tj: This is it, bro.
Last hurrah.
Jarrett: That's
all she wrote, man.
Tj: We need to make
an exclamation point.
We need to have one
more big fish, you know,
to kind of finish our season
off and make a paycheck for
that winter,
get back to gloucester,
so it's gonna be neck and
neck right to the bitter end.
Hope mr. Charlie, the
tuna gods are on our side.
Reed: Hopefully we can hold
'em off for one more day.
End the season with
our team on top here.
Zack: The southern boys, this
year are k*lling it, I mean,
that's right where we,
right where we should be.
This is our backyard.
We ought to know
where the fish are at.
Tyler: These guys all
know we're a threat.
We get hot, we can
catch some fish.
Bobby: We are pumped
and my team is ready.
This is our moment to shine.
Reed: Wanchese crew is still
fighting, anything can happen
today.
Tyler: I got me and merm.
We got all the skills and all
the talents and everything to
make this happen.
Tj: We're gonna
be finishing on top,
it's not gonna
be flat com either.
Jarrett: Alright,
it's the last ship out.
Marciano: We got
one more shot.
Shane: Nothing to it,
but to do it.
Daniel: We only gotta get us
one more before it goes out.
Bobby: These guys have no
idea what's about to happen.
Banks: We're getting
a big jumbo today.
Bobby: Let's go catch 'em,
let's go get 'em.
Joe: And here we go.
Tj: Go big or go home.
Drew: Can't go
home without a fish.
Uh, sunlight's coming
up, we're on the spot.
Uh, everybody's here.
Uh, we're just
setting bait back right now.
Bobby: It just rose
ten degrees in 100 feet.
Brian: All right, let's
get bit, let's get bit.
Bobby: This is it.
They're shutting
us down tonight.
Right now we're ahead of
the local boy on the kahuna.
And we're ahead of
the quiet K*llers on
the offshore outlaw.
But now tyler's caught and
he's only $1,200 behind us.
We have to catch a big
beautiful bluefin today,
so we're the ones
who take home the gold.
Brian: Pocket rocket?
Drew: Yeah.
Daniel: Last day and need
to end it on a good note.
See if we can't
get lucky, get a bite.
Zack: All we really wanted to
prove was that we can really
hang with the big boys.
And you got the best of
all tuna fishermen colliding
right here in oregon inlet,
I mean, just to be in
contention feels good.
Little mark.
Come on, give us some tuna.
Definitely came up
and looked at it.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
daniel: There he is.
Zack: There he is, boys!
Daniel: We got
two on, oh my god.
Zack: Doubled up.
Daniel: Doubled up.
Double header.
This is it, boys.
You all ready,
get the head right.
Shane: That's what
I'm talking about.
Zack: Steady, boys.
Right now we got two on,
but we can easily
have one or none on.
Drew: Pocket rocket's
tight over there, bob.
Bobby: Where?
Drew: Right over there.
Bobby: Sure?
Drew: Looks like it.
On the backside of the boat.
Brian: Those
little [bleep], bro.
They got to be the luckiest
boat I ever seen, dude.
I ain't never seen that little
console do work like that.
Bobby: Big mark!
Wolf pack! 250.
Brian: All right,
let's get bit, let's get bit.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
drew: There we go,
bite on, brian. Bite on.
Bobby: We're on.
Drew: There we go.
Bobby: Let's move that.
Drew: Yeah.
Bobby: Relax, drew, relax.
Bobby: Get on the rod.
Come on.
Gotta come tight, right now.
I'm tight. I'm tight. Game on.
Reed: This sucks.
Steve: Checking some baits.
Checking for grass.
That's about it.
It's been slow today.
[reel unspooling]
reed: What the
[bleep] was that?
Steve: Oops.
Reed: [bleep].
Banks: You...
Steve: I forget that you old
guys have those weak hearts.
Reed: [bleep].
We've got only hours left
in the season right now.
Every single boat in the
fleet is out here trying
to get that final paycheck.
We're gonna get
the biggest one.
There's no second
chances after today.
It's do or die,
and we'd better do.
Steve: There he is.
Banks: There he is.
Reed: There he was.
Nothing?
Banks: Damn,
that was him, too.
Reed: I'm not convinced.
Steve: Something pulled
on it, that's for sure.
Reed: I'll tell you
when I look at the bait.
Banks: Oh, okay.
Reed: Yeah, that was a
[bleep] rubber band broke,
you jackleg.
Banks: Did you see that?
That was a big-a*s fish.
Steve: I did see it.
I saw it bounce.
Reed: Oh, and marking.
Could actually be a mark.
Banks: What'd, you get a mark?
Reed: Yeah.
Banks: Could be dolphins.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
there you go.
There he is. We're on!
Reed: Hooked up, baby.
Hooked up. Let's do it.
Banks: Happier
than a pig in mud.
Reed: Oh, please god,
let us get this fish.
Banks: Good lord.
This thing has a lot of
friggin' heat on it now.
Reed: All right I'm pumped.
Let's do this.
Daniel: Hurry up now, they're
crossed, I can feel it.
Zack: Dang, shane.
Daniel: Doubled up
right this second.
Zack: The good news is
we have a really good
chance of catching a fish on
the final day of the season.
The bad news is,
if the lines cross,
then we can lose both
fish and our paycheck
sinks to the
bottom of the ocean.
These two fish
mean more than anything
in the world right now.
Zack: Go, go, go.
Back it off or
something, shane.
Daniel: He'll part off and
you'll lose both of 'em.
I don't know what to do.
Zack: Which way
is yours, daniel?
Daniel: Down.
Shane: My drag's down, too.
Zack: Well, just hurry up.
Shane! Come on, we
can't lose this one.
Pick it up.
Daniel: Hold up, we
gotta move this rod.
Zack: Well, just hurry up.
Shane, pick the rod up.
Shane: How the [bleep] can you
move the front when you got.
Zack: Just like this.
Come on, we
can't lose this one.
You okay, daniel, back there?
Daniel: Yeah, for
right this second.
We're doubled up.
Zack: It's nerve-racking
'cause anything can happen,
these fish can
cross and cut you off.
And it's just a lot
going on right now.
Bobby: He still taking?
Drew: He's going,
going, going down.
Bobby: Wow, it's
a big fish, bro.
Drew: Fish is a slob.
Bobby: That's a beast,
brian, do not crank too hard.
Brian: Never a dull moment.
Bobby: All right, brian.
You got a little swell here.
Now he's
stretching out a little.
Brian: Dammit, man.
Dammit!
Bobby: Come on,
country, bring him home!
Banks: Put it in gear,
put it in gear.
Reed: This could be our one.
Please, baby jesus,
let us finish up strong.
I'm putting my skins on,
so if you need to gear,
tell steve.
Banks: Get on the gear.
Get on the gear.
Bump it ahead.
Steve: You want a glove?
Reed: Let's go, baby.
Hope we can make
this one count.
Gonna be a good one.
No yellowfin's
taking that drag.
Banks: Come on,
fish, get on my boat.
Steve: Double harpoons out?
Reed: You got two ready.
You might as well.
Bobby: Whatever
it takes, guys.
We're sticking
him and going home.
Hot tuna knows
where the action is.
Follow the reel e' bugging,
I'll put him on the fish.
This is a very important fish.
Brian: This fish
is everything.
Bobby: We gotta bag
him and tag him, man.
Zack: Oh, we doubled up.
A double could be a jinx.
Anytime you got two on,
I mean, you feel good,
but at the same time,
until they really get spread
apart, then you get nervous
because they can
cross and cut you off.
Ought to be able to
see 'em here soon.
Daniel: There he is,
come in a tail wrap.
Zack: Tail wrap.
Daniel: Get the dart.
Yeah.
He's come undone.
Zack: Black back.
Black back.
Come on, baby,
just a little further. Woo!
Daniel: He ain't got him.
He ain't got him.
Get that tail gaff on him.
Zack: Tail rope.
Tail rope, tail rope,
tail rope, tail rope. Woo!
Ended it on a good note, boys.
Woo!
That right there is
how you end a season.
Daniel: Glad to have him.
Zack: Hell yeah.
Right now we gotta pull
the hook on the other one.
Let him go.
Hope that he'll come
bite our hook next year.
Banks: Taking line.
Reed: Gotta make
this one count, boys.
Last day of the season.
Hopefully it's a keeper.
Feel like it is, he's
taking enough line.
Banks: Ooh, I just felt
the hook skip in his mouth.
Reed: Couple big
swells coming your way,
it's gonna be a big one.
It's the north wind coming in
the forecast anyway, but we're
already seeing sign of
it here in this hot water.
Hopefully we can get this fish,
get the [bleep] out of here.
Bobby: I'm gonna turn, drew.
Drew: All right.
Just a little bit, bobby.
Bobby: Good?
Drew: Yeah, ugh.
He just pulled off.
Bobby: Keep going. Off?
Drew: Pulled off.
Bobby: Put the baits in.
Put the baits in.
I feel nauseous.
I could throw up right now.
Go from hero to zero so
fast your head will spin.
Hey, I mean, we're probably
100 yards from putting that
fish in the boat.
100 yards.
Oh, boy.
Reed: That's what
I'm talking about.
Banks: I know, but I, I
can't do anything right there.
Bump it ahead.
Reed: Hard right.
All right.
That's a nice one.
[bleep] it.
Banks: Leader's on, get him.
Reed: I can't.
Banks: Get his a*s.
Reed: Got him.
[bleep], we ain't got him yet.
Still don't have him.
All right!
Steve: It's a wrap.
Reed: That's a tail wrap.
Wrap.
Pretty work, boys.
All right, nice. Woo!
Pretty work.
Good work, steve.
Banks: Hell yeah, boys.
That's the only way to
put a wrap on this season.
Steve: Ah, bobby bugging's
so pissed right now.
Banks: Oh, don't
talk him into a bite.
Reed: Pull this last
fish in the boat, boys.
See what we got.
Get my fancy dancy [bleep] in.
All right.
Steve: One, two, three.
Reed: Nice.
Steve: One, two, three.
Reed: Nice one to
finish off with.
And 99.
Steve: 99.
Reed: 99-incher.
To finish off the season. Woo!
Pretty work, steve!
Banks: Take it. [bleep].
Reed: Nice job.
Zack: The weather was
calling for it to turn
at about lunch and...
Daniel: This is it.
Zack: Hell yeah, dude!
That's what I'm talking about.
Zack: Yeah, that's a wrap
right there, that's tuna
season done.
Daniel: 87 inches, boys.
Zack: 87.
Daniel: 87.
Let's take it to
wanchese one more time.
Zack: Yeah, that's
the way to end it.
Daniel: Lucky we got our fish.
Zack: Yeah, we are.
We got him when it counted.
[bleep] dang.
Hell, we gotta
get out of here.
Steve: Happy to have it.
It was a good year.
Reed: All right.
Glad to see you one last time.
Dennis: Last
day of the season,
what do you got for me?
Reed: Decent one
today, looks pretty nice.
Ready to take a look at him?
Dennis: Right on.
Reed: This competition
has been so close, I
think it'll come down to the
dollar or the pound.
So we need big
numbers all the way around.
All right, dennis, what
are we looking at here?
Dennis: 362
pounds dressed, man.
Reed: All right.
Pretty work, boys.
Dennis: I think it's a nice
fish to finish up the season.
Let's see what the
meat color looks like.
Reed: All right.
Get out of the way, come on.
Get it together, guys.
All right.
Dennis: Pretty good fish,
to end the season, guys.
Reed: I'd say so.
Dennis: It's not
jammed up with fat, but
some pretty tail color.
Reed: Hopefully the,
uh, core will match.
Dennis: Well, let's see,
let's check the core.
Reed: Oh, yeah.
Dennis: Beautiful, beautiful
core here, it's nice red tail.
Just wish it had some fat.
Banks: Hook us up.
Reed: Give us your
best guess on this guy.
Dennis: $17 a pound.
Reed: Nice. Take that.
Well, that's it.
I guess we're
taking tomorrow off.
Dennis: Thanks for
all the fish, guys,
you did a great job this season.
Reed: All right,
we're out of here.
I don't know if six grand
will put us over the top.
There's still boats
out fishing, so now
it's a waiting game.
Steve: Team kahuna signing off.
Zack: What a way to end it.
We k*lled 11 fish this year.
Zack: We're winners in our eyes.
Order!
Bill: What's up?
Zack: Number 11
to finish it off.
Bill: Way to bring
one in in the last day.
Zack: Let's get this thing
up and see what we doing.
Bill: Let's do it. Cool.
Last fish of the season.
Zack: How much we got,
what we looking at, man?
Bill: Not bad, guys. 321.
Zack: Good job, boys.
Hell of a year.
Bill: Let's get the
tail cut, core sample.
Zack: Let's do it, man.
Our final fish of the season
might not be our biggest,
but I'm damn
happy to have him.
Bill: See what we got.
Not a bad little fish.
It's got some fat.
Really good color.
See what this core
sample looks like.
Look at that.
Pretty, uh, consistent
all the way through it.
Zack: That's what
we like to hear.
Bill: Yeah, man.
Zack: Are we gonna go
out in style, you think?
Bill: Not quite excellent,
but definitely one of the
better fish I've seen come in.
With all that said and done,
$23 a pound.
Zack: Twenty-three.
That's a good way
to end it, boys.
Bill: Congratulations.
Zack: Appreciate it, y'all.
Bill: Yeah, man. Thank you.
Daniel: We'll see you.
Shane: Appreciate it.
Bill: Bye, boys,
see you all next year.
Zack: Next year.
Between sleeping in a camper,
eating potted meat
and low boat maintenance,
we probably made
the most money out of
anybody in the fleet.
That's how we roll
on the rasta rocket.
Damn, it feels good, boys.
Woo!
Narrator: On the
last day of fishing,
local favorite kahuna
brings home the bacon with
their six grand bluefin.
While rasta rocket jumps ahead
of northern boat pinwheel.
With only hours left,
offshore outlaw,
reel e' bugging,
and all the
northern boats must
make their last stand.
Adam: Today is the
last day of the season.
Coming down to the wire.
Eric: Come on, adam.
Eric: Come on.
Adam: Kahuna and
rasta rocket both
caught fish this morning and
bobby bugging caught
one yesterday.
We still have time to catch
and be the number one boat
but time is running out.
We gotta be in
by 11:30 tonight.
So we gotta catch
quick to make the 50-mile
trek back to the dock.
[barking]
eric: Obviously
we're in a good spot.
Adam: Once again
we're in the right place.
John-michael: When we see
these big old pods of
two-tones there,
a lot of times
they might be feeding,
that brings the
tuna up with them.
[beeping]
eric: There's a mark.
John-michael: Come on, baby.
There's a mark.
Adam: Give me a bite. Please.
[beeping]
come on.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
got something on.
There he is, whoa!
I told you!
I said, "we're gonna get bit."
john-michael: Come on, boys.
Eric: One, two,
three, come on.
Watch your hand.
John-michael:
Can't lose this one.
Eric: Got it?
John-michael: Yeah.
Eric: He's going crazy!
It's a crazy fish, come on!
Holy [bleep]! Back up!
Back up! Back up!
Adam: This ain't good, boys!
We're gonna have
to turn to him!
Eric: I'm not
gonna make you turn.
Adam: I don't know
what you want me to do!
Eric: I'm getting.
Adam: I can't turn on him!
The wind's got me!
What the [bleep] do
you want me to do?
Eric: [bleep],
I'm about spooled!
I'm going.
Adam: Get your
[bleep] drag down!
John-michael: Yeah,
tighten the drag!
Eric: Tensions are getting
high, adam's gonna fight to
the very last breath in his
soul to get this fish and
we cannot afford to lose it.
It could guarantee our
lead over the fleet.
Lot of pressure right here.
Wanna switch.
Ready?
John-michael: Yeah.
Eric: Gotta crank, man.
John-michael:
I am cranking it.
Eric: It's coming up.
Keep it tight.
John-michael: I'm trying.
Eric: Go forward. Forward.
Switch.
Fish is coming up.
Need this one bad.
You'll see him here in
second, he's coming up.
John-michael: Some sea
mist coming across the water.
Eric: Swivel.
John-michael: Yeah.
Adam: Hopefully the
last fish of the season.
Yeah, I'm nervous.
Eric: Right in the sun, dude.
Got color.
Ah, stress level 10.
Deep color.
John-michael: Color.
Eric: There he is.
John-michael:
Just be ready, dude,
in case something happens.
Eric: There he is.
He's going under the boat!
Adam: Come on!
You got him 15 foot up!
Eric: Dammit!
Adam: Are you kidding me?
Eric: I don't know what side.
Adam: I can't see.
John-michael:
Just be ready, dude,
in case something happens.
Adam: There he is.
Come on, you got
him 15 foot up!
[bleep]!
Eric: He's gone.
Adam: Dammit!
Are you kidding me?
Adam: Get him.
John-michael:
Got him, baby! Yes!
Eric: Tail gaff!
John-michael: Tail rope,
gaff, something! Tail rope.
Move, chopper.
Adam: Chopper, move!
John-michael: God darn,
what a fish.
[bleep], I'm trying.
Eric: Come on.
John-michael: I'm trying!
You're acting like I ain't.
Yeah! Man, he's
a fatty too, baby.
Yeah! Woo!
Back on top, baby!
Back on top!
Man, that's a good feeling
when [bleep] goes together.
Adam: Yeah.
John-michael: Woo!
Eric: We gotta hurry up, john.
This weather's getting
real bad, real fast.
Pull him in.
Adam: Got it?
Eric: Yup.
Adam: Chopper, chopper.
John-michael: Chopper!
Eric: One, two, three.
One, two, three.
Bobby, I got your
fish on my boat!
The one that got away, bobby!
All right, boys,
last one of the season!
Adam: 93.
John-michael: Yeah, baby!
Number one, baby!
Adam: God, I'm glad to
have that ticket, dude.
Eric: Yeah. Golden ticket.
Adam: Can't ask for a
better way to end it.
Tyler: It's getting rougher.
Marissa: Yesterday
was such a great day.
What is this?
Tyler: The obx at its finest.
Marissa: Ah!
I got air on that one.
Tyler: Not even that rough.
It's up to the pinwheel to
take charge of the north.
There's no way I'm
going in without a bluefin.
Gonna keep fishing, right?
Marissa: What are
you talking about?
I'm having a blast out here.
Marciano: Got a couple
hours of daylight left though.
So we'll give it a
try trolling till then.
And, uh, hopefully
we'll find some fish here.
Last season we caught a
total of six bluefin tuna.
This season, we've
only gotten four so far.
I want us to get that final
fish just so I can give joe
and travis one more paycheck.
[beeping]
there's a couple.
Joe: We're marking 'em.
That's real encouraging,
sounds like a few guys have
been getting bites all day.
Marciano:
There's a couple more.
Joe: Just wanna maximize
our time and hopefully
it's not gonna take long.
It's not over yet.
Tj: It's not that comfortable
out here today, but we're here.
The dogs aren't
really liking it,
but we just gotta be out here.
We're gonna make it happen.
You know.
That's the name of the game.
Just be out here,
and make it happen.
The competition is so close.
All it takes is a couple bucks
over there or a couple pounds
there and someone else could
take the top of
the leaderboard.
Any minute now, we get
that big mark on there,
and rods cr*pple over
and we're down and tight.
But till we find those marks,
we got nothing.
It's gonna be neck and
neck right till the bitter end.
Gotta make it happen.
[wind]
bobby: It's nautical out, man.
Wow.
There's a lot of things
working against us right now.
The weather went to hell.
We got till 11:30 tonight.
It's a three-hour ride back.
We gotta hook a fish
before 6:00 pm to have
a reasonable shot at it.
Brian: Well, we gotta stick
it out for this last day.
We're in it to win it.
We catch a fish,
that's the ballgame.
Drew: We gotta get it done.
That's all there is to it.
Bobby: Kahuna and outlaw
have caught fish today.
That probably means
we're behind both of them.
I can't let our
season end that way.
I just can't.
We've worked so hard
and we are so close to
being the new champion,
we can taste it.
Tastes like victory.
Weather's not gonna stop us,
only thing that could run
out on us is time right now.
Marissa: I thought
you said it was gonna get
nicer in the afternoon.
[groans]
tyler: What?
Marissa: This is a nightmare.
We are getting chucked.
Straight up chucked.
Tyler: Oh, we're
gonna get destroyed.
Whoa, we are marking.
Marissa: Are you sure?
Tyler: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We found some tunas at least.
Marissa: You ready?
Tyler: Ready to go to work.
Last day of the fishing
season, we need this.
Bobby: Here we go!
I got good marks.
Hold on! Oh, [bleep]!
Holy, [bleep] me.
Wow. Wow!
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
okay, fish on, fish on.
Yo, yo, yo! Booyah!
How about that?
[reel unspooling rapidly]
stay on the reel, brian.
I got this, stay on the reel.
You'll be slowing that hiccup.
Drew: We really
need this fish.
Tyler: What are we doing?
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
oh. We're on!
Marissa: We're on?
Tyler: We are on!
Marissa: Yep, I'm coming.
Tyler: Got him on.
Taking a lot of line.
Gotta clear these rods.
All right, merm,
merm, merm, merm,
I don't care about anything,
I care about
clearing these rods.
Marissa: I'm here.
Tyler: Reel.
Reel, reel, reel, reel.
Last day of the season.
Pushing the envelope,
fishing the rough weather,
gotta get this fish.
Woo!
Bobby: Right there, bro.
Straighten it out so
I can reel this in.
Fast! Forward, forward.
Forward star, watch that wave.
Wanna get him in the upright?
Brian: Yeah.
I can't see, bro.
Oh [bleep].
Oh [bleep].
Hold on, bro.
Bobby: It's a
critical fish right here.
Critical fish.
Tyler: Come on, merm, it's
the last day of the season,
make it count.
Make it count.
Whew, gotta get this one.
I don't wanna have to
keep fishing today.
Bobby: Come on, there you go.
Big wave, brian.
Drew: Good, good, he's right
off the back here, bobby.
Brian: Yeah, he's right here.
He's doing some
giant-a*s pinwheels, bro.
Tyler: Get some, get some,
get some, merm.
Close your eyes and reel,
keep on reeling,
reel your heart out.
Catch this fish and we
get the hell out of here.
Close your eyes and reel,
close your eyes and reel.
Marissa: Wow!
Tyler: Keep on reeling, merm.
Make it count.
Coming around!
Marissa: Coming around.
Tyler: Keep on reeling, merm.
Oh [bleep].
Keep reeling, keep reeling.
Keep reeling.
Keep reeling.
Tyler: Come on.
Pulled the hook freaking
60 feet from the boat.
This place sucks.
Bobby: This is good tuna
fishing you're gonna get.
It's your typical
outer banks tuna fishing.
Eight-foot swells.
Wind...
And rain...
And fog.
Big-a*s fish.
Brian: There he is, color.
Drew: Oh, yeah.
Coming up out there, bob.
Bobby: Switch with me.
I mean, the boat's
going up and down,
all these
things against us.
If we get the fish close
enough to the boat to maybe
throw a harpoon,
that would be a miracle.
Brian: There he goes, bobby.
Coming back up,
it's coming back up.
Bobby: Just to make matters
worse, outlaw's caught a fish.
They haven't even
weighed in yet.
This is our most important
fish of the whole season.
Brian: Right here, bobby.
Swivel's on, swivel's on.
Hold on, you'll get him,
you'll get him right.
All right, here he comes.
Bobby: Ah, no, drew,
don't put it in gear.
Brian: I got him.
I got him hooked.
All right, give
it, get the tail.
Where's the, where's the gaff?
Bobby: Drew, get
off the stick.
Drew: All right.
Bobby: Drew, pull him to you.
Drew: I am. I am. I am.
Brian: Number 15, baby. Nice.
I thought we missed
that [bleep] this morning.
Bobby: We got him, bro!
Come here, you big [bleep]!
Come on, man!
Yeah! Yeah!
Drew: Yeah, buddy.
Bobby: Yeah!
Drew: Yeah, bobby.
Bobby: Wow!
I said all season that I have
the best crew in the fleet.
And I was right about that.
Drew and brian have
proven time and time again,
we can do just about anything.
Brian: Put some
music on, bobby.
Bobby: There you go,
fat [bleep]!
Drew: Oh, yeah.
Brian: Oh, yeah 89, 89.
Bobby: Yeah, 89!
Drew: Yeah, man. Fins up.
Bobby: [bleep], [bleep],
we gotta get out of here.
Put a fork in the outlaw.
Game over.
Oh, man, we
worked for this one. Wow!
Eric: All right, boys.
Last one of the season.
John-michael: Yeah, baby!
Adam: How's it going?
Scott: One last time.
Looks like you got
your big one, too.
John-michael:
Really need a good
paycheck from this one now.
Scott: So what do you say?
Adam: I say we
take a look at him.
Scott: Do it up.
Drew: We got one.
Bobby: Yeah!
The best fish we ever
caught ever in our lives.
Dennis: This one?
Bobby: I don't even know
what the fish looks like.
Dennis: Let's check him out
and see what I can do for you.
Bobby: Let's do it.
Drew: All right.
Adam: So what do
we got, scott?
Scott: 366 pounds dressed.
Adam: Nice.
Dennis: 302 dressed, bobby.
Bobby: Come on! Come on!
That's beautiful. All right.
Let's see what we got here.
Dennis: Okay.
Scott: Not a bad
way to end it, guys.
Loaded with fat.
Adam: Good.
Scott: As long as
this core's good,
should make some money here.
Nice. Solid core.
Adam: I like it.
Scott: Thing's glowing.
Adam: This is our last
fish for the season, and, uh,
we really need to get a good
price for this fish.
Scott: I can get you guys,
22 bucks a pound.
John-michael:
Yeah! Yeah, baby! Payday!
Adam: Scott.
Scotty, you are the man, sir.
Scott: You guys did great.
Adam: See you next year, boss.
Scott: Thanks for everything.
Adam: I still think that
we got a pretty good
chance of staying on the top.
But our future is
in bobby's hands.
We just gotta wait and see
how everything plays out.
Bobby: I'm extremely optimistic
we can win this thing.
Bottom line, if we
can get a decent price
for this fish, game over.
Dennis: Pretty nice fish to
end the season, you guys.
It's a very, very
beautiful tail color.
It's not a super fat fish,
but the core color
matches the tail color.
I'm gonna have a
good price for you.
Bobby: Oh, come on, dennis.
Let's see this core.
Drew: Oh, that's pretty.
Dennis: Clear red core.
If this had some more fat
in it, you know, you'd be
getting a big, big price.
But...
Bobby: Give me
the best you can do.
Bottom line.
Dennis: $23 a pound.
Drew: Yeah, yeah!
Bobby: I really can't
describe how amazing it feels.
We have
exterminated the competition.
Dennis: You had a
really good season.
Bobby: Thank you so much.
Dennis: Nice job on your fish.
Bobby: All right.
We were able to
prove everyone wrong.
And come out on top.
It's, it's the pinnacle
of my fishing career.
It's so easy, even a
bedbug exterminator can do it.
Narrator: Reel e' bugging's
miracle 15th bluefin catch
wins them the title.
Beating fellow
southern boat offshore outlaw
by just over three grand.
Local legend kahuna
takes the bronze.
While the young g*ns on
rasta rocket make a
solid statement
in fourth place.
All three northern
boats head back to
gloucester without besting
this season's new blood.
Tj: Had a lot of ups
and downs this season.
Made some wrong calls.
Had some heartbreaking losses,
but I'm glad that's
the last time we gotta
do that for the season.
I'm ready to go home.
Joe: All right, what
do you say, brother, good,
heck of a season.
Travis: Yeah, man.
Marciano: If you ever get
yourself up to gloucester
and you're looking for work,
you know, like, say,
give me a shout.
Travis, thanks again.
Travis: Dave, thank you.
Joe: Take it easy, man.
Been real.
Travis: Thanks.
Marciano: All right,
we'll see you.
Banks: Is that it?
Game over or what?
Reed: That's it,
we kicked a*s.
Now we get to go
home and sleep in.
Let's get out of here.
Banks: Let's do it.
Zack: Yeah.
Ready to go back home?
Yeah. Yeah, you're
ready to go back home.
Shane: That's a
wrap till next year.
Tyler: Guess that's a
wrap down here, merm.
We might have had a
rough day on the water today
and that comes as
part of the territory,
but I couldn't
be prouder of my sister.
I mean, she kicked a*s
this year, she really did.
You rock.
Tyler: Let's clean this
thing up and go take a shower.
Marissa: We're headed north.
Bobby: All right boys,
finished strong, didn't we?
What do you think?
Brian: Man.
Pretty work, guys.
Bobby: Think the old
girl did good for us.
And the boat, too.
Oh my god.
Brian: Let's do it
again next year.
Bobby: Can't wait to next year.
Job well done.
Job well done, guys.
Let's lock her up
and get out for now.
Drew: All right.
Adam: So we headed
out, normal day.
We headed towards the bridge,
lined up on the cut
through to the bridge,
everything was fine.
Next thing you know the boat
started pulling to the right.
Adam: No steering response.
We hit.
Everything
happened really fast.
All the money that we
made this winter is gone in
a matter of two seconds.
It's heartbreaking.
I, I have no idea what the
future holds at this point.
If you spend enough time
here in the outer banks,
something's gonna
happen eventually.
