DAVE: Everybody has their own reason for being the top boat.
The Dot-Com has been the top boat four out of seven seasons.
Woo!
Tyler beat us last year and we sure as hell ain't gonna let that happen again.
We are the boat to beat.
TYLER: Usually we're fishing because,
yeah, we want to be the best...
Be the top boat in the fleet.
But this year, we're fishing for our lost friend.
Got him on.
DUFFY: All right, bro! TYLER: Yes!
I can't fail Duffy because he wouldn't fail me.
TJ: All season long it's been the Pinwheel and the Dot-Com going back and forth.
But they shouldn't underestimate us.
We've never finished the top boat in Gloucester.
And I know if we just go out there and do our thing and stay in that bluefin groove,
this could be ours.
MARCIANO: Give a man a fish and you'll feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, or a woman,
and they'll feed themselves for a lifetime.
And that's what we're doing here.
Hopefully, I'm teaching my family lessons,
not just in fishing, but in life in general.
PAUL: My heart is in this fishery.
It's what I've done my whole life.
It's what I love to do.
And it's not out of reach for us to win this thing because I never,
ever will give up, ever.
NARRATOR: On this episode of Wicked Tuna.
JOE: We're on! TJ: Down and tight, baby! JASON: Oh [bleep]!
DAVE: Watch out. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.
NARRATOR: Time...
JOE: He's coming at us! TYLER: Yes!
NARRATOR: Is...
TYLER: Take that, Dot Com.
SANDRO: I'm going this way. I'm going this way.
NARRATOR: Up.
LANCE: It's going under the boat!
DAVE: This one's for all the marbles.
NARRATOR: Going into battle for the final week,
the Pinwheel brother and sister team lead.
With dark horse Hot Tuna approximately $3,100 behind.
And former champion Fishing Vessel Tuna.Com
stalling in third.
Meanwhile, Wicked Pissah, family operation Falcon and
Fish Hawk are all determined to catch one more paycheck.
DAVE: Ready Sanchis?
Got some nice ones in here.
Let's get one and go home, Sandro.
SANDRO: That's it. All we can hope for.
TYLER: First line out. See what happens.
Oh.
Squid's like what the [bleep].
Either that or he knows there's really big tunas down there.
PAUL: Oh, what's this?
That's a fish!
RICK: Shark? Yeah.
PAUL: Right here. If I had a harpoon boat.
Whack!
Well, we're in a good spot, Rick.
RICK: Yeah. JOE: All right, here he comes.
A nice sexy herring. This is the one.
MARCIANO: Nice. My favorite bait.
Favorite bait. A nice herrona. A live herrona.
JOE: Going out.
JARRETT: Any second now.
TJ: Last week we bumped Dave on the Dot-Com for the second spot.
And this week we're looking to take out Pinwheel in the top spot.
We broke out of that middle of the pack stigma this season,
you know, we're right there.
We're in the hunt. We're very close.
We just need one more quality fish and it's ours.
Oh, boy.
I'd like to hear somebody should have a bite by now.
There's something on the top right there.
MIKE: Look what you're marking.
TJ: He's out there. You see him?
JASON: Big fish! Big fish!
That's a herd.
PAUL: One swimming around here out in the deep water.
MARISSA: Is that a big mark?
TYLER: Big mark.
SANDRO: Wow, he's really all over it.
DAVE: Oh, he's on it! He's on it! He's all over it.
[radio chatter]
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly].
MIKE: Got 'em on!
JARRETT: We're on!
MIKE: TJ, we're on! Hurry up! Hurry up!
I told you there was fish in that bait.
TJ: Yeah. Is that a shark?
MIKE: [bleep] weight here. I'll tell you that much.
TJ: Holy [bleep]. MIKE: Wow.
TJ: Definitely doing some headshaking.
I see deep color.
Big tuna! Holy [bleep].
MIKE: I knew it.
TJ: Let it go! Let it go! He's a [bleep] huge tuna!
Dude, his [bleep] back was this wide.
JARRETT: Hell, yeah. TJ: Holy [bleep]. Electric blue.
MIKE: Got a nice one on here.
Taking a lot of line out.
All over the top.
Gonna get him!
This what we came here for.
He's coming up right here.
There he is! Big!
JARRETT: Wow.
TJ: This could be a good way to end the season.
This is definitely a big fish.
Take your time.
MIKE: There's your shot.
Missed him. [bleep] God.
JARRETT: What the [bleep]? That was a far shot.
TJ: If this fish is as big as I think it is.
That's all we're gonna need to get on top.
We cannot afford to lose this one.
MIKE: Back up. There you go. Come on!
Hold on. You got him wide, watch there.
TJ: Nice! Watch, watch your feet!
MIKE: Gaff, TJ. My right side.
TJ: All right. All right. Okay. Crank, crank, crank!
MIKE: TJ, he's deep, man. Just get a tail rope.
JARRETT: Hold on. MIKE: All right. We got him.
Woo!
JARRETT: Oh, baby, baby, baby!
TJ: Yeah! Pa-pow! All right, boys.
Let's pull him in and see what we got.
JARRETT: Okay. MIKE: Oh, no, no, no, no.
JARRETT: They always flip back over.
TJ: Anytime there's blue and gold glowing on the deck,
it's pretty.
And this is just one of those cases, it's pretty.
MIKE: Hopefully we get a big price like we've been getting
because this fish could definitely pay off.
91 inches.
TJ: Nice. JARRETT: 91.
TJ: We got him. We got him.
This could be our shot to get that Hot Tuna to the top spot
and leave the Pinwheel and the Dot-Com in our wake.
This is the ultimate reward.
Good job, Bubby. Good job, Jarrett.
JARRETT: Thank you, buddy. TJ: We earned this one.
The pelicans are flying west. Pa-pow!
TJ [over radio]: We got him.
DAVE: Wow. That sucks. That sucks, right there.
DAVE: It's frustrating to hear that TJ's caught a big fish
with so little time left,
but hearing that only makes us want a bigger one.
We keep talking about Tyler.
Dot-Com and Tyler, Dot-Com and Tyler.
But look where we're at now.
This is like a three horse race.
Three thoroughbreds going for the win.
GEORDIE: I'm right in their faces.
I can feel them swimming into it.
SANDRO: Well, probably.
DAVE: Full house there, huh.
GEORDIE: Dude, this thing's just as loaded on this trip.
[beeping]
DAVE: Where? Just now? SANDRO: Yeah. Come on.
DAVE: Oh, yeah. The fish are definitely mowing.
SANDRO: How deep's that first mark?
What'd he come in at?
DAVE: Came up to 120.
And the second one came up and looked at the sinker.
Might be the same one.
He might still be there. Who knows?
He looked right at the sinker. Came right up to it.
Yeah, he's still around. He's not there right now.
He's off the machine, but came right up to 100.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
SANDRO: We're on! We're on!
DAVE: Here we go! Here we go!
Just like that, huh?
SANDRO: We're on! DAVE: That's him! That's him! SANDRO: Woo! Damn.
Right for it. Amazing.
DAVE: That's it. Get right on it, Geordie.
Try and go right on the east side of it.
He's up high.
Here we go, here we go. Here comes the sinker.
GEORDIE: Sinker.
DAVE: A lot of direction changes.
SANDRO: Neutral, neutral, neutral, neutral.
Slow down. I got it. Don't slow down too much.
Go ahead.
GEORDIE: Yeah.
SANDRO: Try not to get on him too fast.
GEORDIE: Yeah.
DAVE: Nice pace. Just like we're doing.
Nice. Good job, Geordie. That's the pace.
GEORDIE: Me too.
DAVE: Fishing is fun, but this is nerve-wracking.
SANDRO: Neutral. Reverse.
DAVE: He's a tough fish, man.
He's big. He knows what he's doing.
Man, this fish is tough. We could be in for a battle here.
Take your time.
[line snap]
Oh, oh, oh.
SANDRO: What the [bleep]?
DAVE: He's gone.
SANDRO: No [bleep] way, dude.
[bleep] joke.
Needed that fish. Needed that fish.
[bleep].
[thud]
[bleep]!
Oh, man. What a bummer.
TJ: This could be a huge score.
Hopefully this one propels us to the top.
What's happening, Den-Den?
DENNIS: You got another big fatty again?
TJ: It's not as big as the other ones, but it looks like a beautiful fish.
Good quality.
DENNIS: Let's get him off and check it out.
TJ: Yeah. Absolutely, man.
MIKE: Uh, this is a great season.
We've got great prices, so hopefully this pays off.
We get a nice paycheck.
TJ: What we got, Den?
DENNIS: 360 pounds dressed, guys.
TJ: That's a good size.
MIKE: Nice unit.
TJ: Not a sea monster, but that's respectable right?
DENNIS: No, it looks like a nice fish.
TJ: Nice shape, yeah.
Want to get a tail cut, core sample, check him out?
The buyer's looking primarily at fat content and color.
The more fat there is, the higher the price.
Right now we're about $3,100 behind Tyler.
So we need a good price for this fish in order to pull ahead of Pinwheel.
DENNIS: I love that clarity.
And this is nice meat quality on this fish.
TJ: Yeah.
DENNIS: Let's see what the core looks like.
JARRETT: Oh, oh, oh, oh.
TJ: It's beautiful.
DENNIS: I think this is gonna be a nice good fish for Tokyo.
TJ: So what are thinking with the way everything is right now?
DENNIS: $28 a pound.
MIKE: Wow. TJ: Wow. JARRETT: All right, man.
TJ: Take it. This fish have been paying off, man.
Holy smokes.
JARRETT: Thank you, Dennis.
TJ: That's just what we needed.
Not only does it give us the lead.
It puts some distance between us,
Pinwheel and Dot-Com.
NARRATOR: Hot Tuna's $10,000 haul gives them the lead over
Pinwheel by nearly $7,000...
And leaves Dot-Com about $13,000 behind.
TJ: It's not over 'till it's over.
Let's do it again.
♪
TYLER: All right, Merm. Well we got some nice baits.
Let's go get some sleep for a little bit.
Wake up early, or maybe we'll wake up to a screaming rod.
A hundred-incher.
MARISSA: That'd be really nice.
TYLER: All right. I'm going to bed.
MARISSA: All right, go to bed.
I'm gonna catch a couple more squids.
TYLER: All right, Mermy.
I'm not sure what I would if I didn't have my sister to help me keep going and
keep me focused and to lean on and talk to.
She's stepped up huge.
I couldn't ask anything more from her.
It's been awesome.
MARISSA: Tyler's going to sleep.
I'm gonna catch a couple more squid so we have some bait to fish tomorrow.
TYLER: We know TJ got one earlier and we've lost the lead,
but Merm and I are gonna keep at it until the last fish is caught.
MARISSA: Oh, yeah.
Going into the season, I was just there to help my brother.
TYLER: We lost one of our best friends.
I feel like, like I shouldn't be going.
MARISSA: No, we have to go fishing because he would not want us sitting at
the dock right now.
He needed someone to go with him and I didn't really expect
that we would be doing so well,
but it's really important that Tyler and I win this for Duffy.
The live well is full. I feel like today's our day.
[snoring]
[reel clicking]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
TYLER: We're on! Merm, we're on!
We're on! Merm!
MARISSA: Don't lose it, Tyler!
TYLER: Ooh! Yeah, baby!
Get on the rod. Big fish. Nice mark on the screen.
Exactly what we wanted. One a day.
Trying to get a fish first thing in the morning and we got a bite.
Go get 'em, Merm.
We came into this week on top.
But TJ caught another jumbo and took the lead.
For us this season has been about winning it for Duffy and that's what
we're determined to do.
Holy [bleep], we're gonna freaking get spooled, Merm.
All right, I need you to reel a lot of line in.
Yup. You got a lot of reeling to do.
Back and forth.
Nice fish here. So happy.
First thing in the morning to get 'em like this.
For that one I came up flying.
I was like, we're on!
I heard it. We're on!
Take that Dot-Com.
If we can catch this one we might catch a fish before Dot-Com even leaves the dock.
Just pay attention and don't be scared to do those fast X's
I talked about, remember?
Like X, X, X, X.
MARISSA: Do some X's Tyler.
TYLER: Oh, you want me to?
Heat's on him now.
Just go to that way a little bit, Merm.
Good job, Merm.
Keep going. Keep going to the right. To the right.
All right, straighten it out.
MARISSA: I'm driving. TYLER: Merm's driving.
Now this is starting to get to be fun again.
To the left.
Neutral. He's coming in. Now he's coming in.
Oh!
MARISSA: What? TYLER: Just came off I think.
MARISSA: He's not there? TYLER: Nope.
There's just a lot of line.
MARISSA: He must have been a really, really big one.
TYLER: He was a big one.
Oh. Line broke.
There's a lot of lobster traps around here.
Could have lost him in the lobster trap.
With that much line we had out.
We almost probably 750 yards of line out.
That's a long way.
Dammit, Merm!
MARISSA: It's just the beginning of the day.
That would have been too good to be true.
LANCE: Clock is ticking.
BRAD: Oh, my God. Hours of boredom.
We have yet to bend a rod or hear a drag scream out.
LANCE: Been out here for, I don't even know how long now.
A month I think.
BRAD: We want to be hooked up, but we're not.
LANCE: Oh.
I was having some anxiety earlier.
BRAD: What was your anxiety about?
LANCE: My bills and being trapped out here and not catching fish.
Just the whole deal, man.
Just thinking that like we're never gonna catch another fish, like ever.
Going into this season I had high expectations of catching a lot of
fish because Brad did really well last year.
And it hasn't turned out this way.
We only have four fish.
This is not where I thought that we'd be sitting at the end of the season.
I'm being really hopeful.
We could bring home a final paycheck to our families.
Yeah, we haven't had a bite in a while, so we got to stay busy.
I mean, you could go nuts.
Just sit around and do nothing and wait for this bite.
BRAD: It's just a matter of time before one of these bends over.
We're just tuna wishing.
It's do or die time.
LANCE: I wanna die.
JASON: Good luck Mr. Squid. I hope you get eaten.
JOE: The season's wrapping up here.
We just want to get that one more fish.
Jay and I took the Hard Merch to Georges last week and we earned over
seven grand for my dad.
That's a nice one.
But this week he wants all hands on deck to finish out the season as a team,
so we're gonna do him proud.
And we also see some whales in the distance, so we're feeling good here.
MARCIANO: Last week while Joe and Jay were off on their own.
I might have lost my cool and put a little damper on our
father-daughter fishing trip.
[bleep].
Uh, now he's gone. [bleep] damn it.
We don't even get a [bleep] fair chance.
[bleep], [bleep], [bleep].
But now that we have the whole team back together,
I really want to end this season on a positive note for everybody.
Turn the whale call on, Joe.
[whale calls]
You got to call the whales. That's right.
[whale calls]
JOE: See him? JASON: Yup. I saw him. There he is.
MARCIANO: Yeah, yeah. JASON: Coming at us.
JOE: I told you. MARCIANO: Come on, Gel. Give it a try.
ANGELICA: No.
JASON: He's coming right at us.
MARCIANO: He's giving us the flipper.
JASON: He's doing the, he's doing the floppy.
ANGELICA: He's flipping you off.
MARCIANO: After all when it comes down to it,
a happy family is more important than catching 1,000 fish.
ANGELICA: I'm not doing a whale call.
[whale calls]
MARCIANO: One last hoorah, guys.
DAVE: Place is on fire here with whales and bait.
[bleep].
Why can't we get a bite?
Yesterday, TJ caught another fish and he took the lead from Tyler.
We haven't marked in hours and I really thought this spot would pay off,
but it's not happening.
What do you feel like doing?
I mean nothing happens here in the afternoon.
SANDRO: Yeah, right.
DAVE: We're running around chasing a bite.
SANDRO: We only have a few days left in the season and we're stuck in third place.
Nobody's saying it, but we're all worried.
We could lose for the second year in a row if we keep going like this.
[beeping]
DAVE: Is that a mark?
Yeah.
SANDRO: There he is. DAVE: Chowing away.
[beeping]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
GEORDIE: We're on! SANDRO: Start it up! Start it up!
DAVE: Watch out! Watch out! Watch out!
Get off the anchor! Get off the anchor!
He's running. You got it?
SANDRO: I got it.
DAVE: This is crazy. Got it?
SANDRO: Hold on. I got it. I got it.
DAVE: You got it? SANDRO: I got it. DAVE: Where is it?
SANDRO: I don't know. DAVE: Hold on.
He's gonna snap the line.
SANDRO: I'm going this way. I'm going this way.
DAVE: Watch out. Put the rod tip in the water.
SANDRO: Hold on. Let me grab the center. Let me grab the center.
I can't hang on. I'm gonna lose it.
GEORDIE: Dave, talk to me.
I'm losing the pole!
DAVE: Don't let go! Don't let go!
SANDRO: All right, we're okay.
GEORDIE: Hey, the rods are all cleared. Okay?
DAVE: All right. SANDRO: Get gloves.
DAVE: That was a close call.
We almost lost this one.
It's coming down to the wire and we've got to land this fish.
Wow, just like that huh?
Here we are talking about how bad it is.
It goes from that to this, huh?
We got challenges ahead though.
This is nasty out here right now.
SANDRO: Oh, yeah.
DAVE: He's definitely a big fish.
SANDRO: Got our work cut out for us today.
DAVE: Good color. GEORDIE: Right here, Dave. Right here.
SANDRO: Forward left. Forward left. Forward left. Forward left.
GEORDIE: Black back, but he's laying there.
SANDRO: And forward left. Forward left. Forward left.
DAVE: Don't get overzealous. I can't see it.
SANDRO: He's going under the boat again.
We're gonna lose him.
He's over here, Dave. Get him! Get him!
DAVE: Dammit. I missed him.
SANDRO: He's swimming back over here.
Get him!
DAVE: Got him! Get a gaff. Get a gaff.
GEORDIE: Tail rope.
DAVE: Good job, gentlemen. Real deal right here.
This is a jumbo.
This is exactly what we need to get ahead of Tyler and take the lead from TJ.
Good job all around.
See that harpoon shot was like a 40-foot throw.
SANDRO: Four inches, maybe.
Maybe 40 millimeters. He's big.
DAVE: Wow. He didn't look that big in the water.
SANDRO: He's huge.
He's got a big tail for his body.
99. 98 and a half.
DAVE: We're super stoked. We're going home.
We're gonna offload him. We're gonna make some money.
This fish could be our winning ticket.
PAUL: The final buzzer is gonna go off.
I don't know what the [bleep] that is, but it looks sharky to me.
Keep an eye on those rods, Rick.
We got less than one week left.
Usually I come on strong at the end of the season.
And that's where I make most of my money.
Let me know if the balloons start moving.
Two weeks ago, we caught two fish and made almost 25 grand.
Dude, 111.
RICK: Nice! Yeah!
PAUL: But last week, we caught squat.
Where the hell did those tuna gods go?
Time is running out, but anything can happen.
RICK: Yeah, right here on the blue.
I think we got a shark right here.
PAUL: Okay. Let me see.
RICK: The balloon just came out of the water.
Lifted right up.
PAUL: Oh, yeah, he's on it.
RICK: We got a seal at the back one.
PAUL: Try to save whatever we can.
It's just a [bleep] nightmare. All these [bleep] sharks.
I can't fish. I can't do this.
I'm gonna have no [bleep] money left.
No gear.
I can't keep buying this [bleep].
Yeah, the line's all [bleep] up.
I ain't gonna do this. I don't have the money.
This sucks. I won't put any lines in.
[bleep] it.
This is way too expensive.
What a [bleep] nightmare.
That's the third shark this rod has caught.
Not a good place to fish.
All the sharks and all the slime and all the squid and all the [bleep],
I can't fish like this.
Tuna gods are just not smiling on us.
PJ: There's the old tuna Dot Com.
Got the A-team on there.
Geordie, Sandro.
DAVE: What's up, PJ? Hi, Jimmy.
PJ: Hey, Dave. How's it going?
DAVE: All right. Let's get him up check him out.
PJ: Yeah, see what it looks like.
SANDRO: Nice fish.
DAVE: Right now we're in third place and it's time to take the lead.
RICK: 427 pounds dressed.
SANDRO: A beauty. All right.
PJ: Nice one. Nice piece, guys.
GEORDIE: Yeah, absolutely.
PJ: All right. Let's see what it looks like, guys.
DAVE: We're hoping this is a high quality fish because we're gonna need a
really big paycheck to take the lead from the Hot Tuna.
PJ: Nice-looking fish, guys.
DAVE: That's right. PJ: Beautiful color.
Core color's nice cherry red.
That looks fine.
The tail color looks good.
Good fat in the minors all the way into the majors.
This is a nice-looking fish.
SANDRO: Nice.
PJ: Real nice-looking fish.
DAVE: Well, with a nice-looking fish, do we get a nice paycheck?
PJ: I'm thinking...
$26 a pound.
SANDRO: We'll take it. GEORDIE: Wow. That is awesome.
PJ: Nice fish, guys. DAVE: No way.
GEORDIE: I didn't see that one coming.
SANDRO: Damn. PJ: Nice fish, boys. DAVE: Yeah.
GEORDIE: Wow.
PJ: That's a nice fish. Thank you very much.
GEORDIE: That's a great one.
SANDRO: Wow. PJ: Yeah. DAVE: Hey!
GEORDIE: Hey, buddy.
DAVE: That's the best price per pound this year for us.
This could be a game changer.
Every fish we get on the hook is super, super important.
But right now, it's more important than it has been all season.
We're in the bottom of the ninth inning right here.
We got to get the job done.
NARRATOR: Fishing Vessel Tuna Dot Com's
jumbo catch pushes them ahead of Pinwheel,
but their 11-grand payday
is not enough to take the lead from Hot Tuna.
LANCE: One mark all day, man.
Come on, man. Whales, dolphins.
BRAD: Did you see those dolphins? Two-toned.
LANCE: Dude, that put an instant smile on my face, Brad.
BRAD: They look like tuna.
LANCE: It was awesome. Everything's in place.
The season's almost over.
I gotta admit I'm getting nervous.
It's extremely critical that we bring home at least one more paycheck
for our families.
Other guys are fighting for the competition.
We're just fighting to stay afloat right now.
It's rolling, dude.
BRAD: Come on.
LANCE: It is.
[beeping]
BRAD: There he is. LANCE: Jumbo?
BRAD: Sixty feet. Watch that down line.
LANCE: He's looking.
[beeping]
BRAD: Come on. Perfect baits too.
[reel unspooling rapidly]
LANCE: We're on! We're on! We're on! Down line.
We're on, baby!
Turn up the heat.
He's a little upset, this one.
Taking a good amount of drag right now.
Big fish.
Giving me some pretty mean headshakes right now.
This makes me a little nervous, could have a $10,000 fish on the line right now.
BRAD: Hold on.
LANCE: To say the least, it's man versus beast.
It's rough weather out here right now.
Got about six to eight-foot seas.
Got about a 25-knot wind going.
Big swells, buddy.
Hang on! Hang on!
It's very little between us getting this fish and us losing this fish.
BRAD: We need him, Lance.
Choppy out here tonight.
Kick his ass.
LANCE: Hang on. Big swells. Come on.
BRAD: Oh, my goodness. He's a scary one.
He's acting real funny.
LANCE: Yeah, dude. Here he comes, Brad.
Coming right at us buddy.
Right at us.
Here he comes, dude! Here he comes!
Good, good!
BRAD: Which way is he?
LANCE: Starboard a little, please.
Port a little. Just a little.
Port! Port!
BRAD: I hear you. LANCE: The other port! BRAD: I know.
I just don't want to go too far the other way.
LANCE: I see leader. He's up on the surface.
Here he comes, Brad.
Watch out! Watch out! He's going under the boat.
Stop! He's under the boat!
He's right here!
Here he comes, Brad.
Get him! Get him!
BRAD: Okay. One more turn.
LANCE: Here he comes, Brad. Here he comes!
BRAD: Easy, easy, easy!
LANCE: Stick him, Brad! Stick him! Yes!
BRAD: Get the gaff. Gaff him nice and easy.
He still can go crazy.
LANCE: I got him, Brad. Tail rope, Brad.
I got him, bud! A little bit tighter.
BRAD: Let me tie this line off.
Whoo!
LANCE: It's ours. BRAD: Good job, Lance.
LANCE: Thanks, Brad. You too, brother.
Woo. Nice.
BRAD: Okay. Go. Bigger than you thought, dude.
LANCE: Holy [bleep].
BRAD: He's way bigger than we thought.
LANCE: Fat.
BRAD: Let's get a measurement on him, dude.
LANCE: Yeah, let's do it.
BRAD: Beauty, dude. 103, baby.
LANCE: What? BRAD: Yeah. LANCE: Sweet, dude!
103, man. That's awesome, dude. Yeah, baby!
BRAD: That thing is massive.
LANCE: Once last paycheck will make a huge difference.
LANCE: Woo! Payday!
BRAD: What's up, Scott? SCOTT: What's going on, guys?
BRAD: Scotty, we got a nice one here for you.
SCOTT: All right, let's check him out.
LANCE: You're gonna like this one.
SCOTT: Yeah, it's got a nice shape on it.
Way to go, guys.
This thing's a beauty.
LANCE: Thank you.
We're really hoping for a really good price for this fish.
Because we all need money.
We wanna finish this season strong.
What'd you got, Scottso?
SCOTT: 300 pounds dressed.
LANCE: That's a diamond.
BRAD: All right, Scotty.
We're gonna come up and take a look, bud.
SCOTT: Look at the color on that.
Good color on it.
BRAD: And the core looks good too.
SCOTT: Yeah, the core's fine. Greasy.
BRAD: What can you do for us, buddy?
SCOTT: I can get you guys...
$21 a pound.
BRAD: Nice. LANCE: Sweet. Sweet.
Thanks, brother. Thanks, man.
BRAD: Good job, man. SCOTT: Woo! BRAD: Good job.
LANCE: Good job, Brad.
I'm so grateful we got that paycheck.
And the season's not over yet,
so I'd say things are looking up on the Fish Hawk.
BRAD: We're gonna bring you some more.
SCOTT: Awesome. BRAD: Okay. Thank you, man. SCOTT: All right, guys.
BRAD: All right. All right. LANCE: Thanks, Scott. SCOTT: See you later.
BRAD: Have a good night. Thank you.
Let's get another one.
LANCE: We're gonna go do it again tomorrow.
DAVE: Let's finish it up.
Let's get a couple more and we'll call it a season.
How's that sound?
GEORDIE: Works for me.
SANDRO: Let's get a couple more after that.
How about that?
DAVE: Let's work hard.
Let's pay attention to detail,
get bait and we'll fish as hard as we can for today.
GEORDIE: Yup. DAVE: All right.
Look at the size of that. I'll take it, give me that big one.
Hate when they...
Yesterday we caught an $11,000 Bluefin and we jumped ahead of Tyler...
This is it. Fourth quarter right here.
But unfortunately, it wasn't enough to take the lead away from TJ.
With time running out,
we gotta make something happen and we gotta make it happen fast.
SANDRO: We gotta get it done.
DAVE: And I don't want to win by a field goal.
SANDRO: We got to get it done.
DAVE: I want to win by a touchdown.
GEORDIE: Hey, hey! DAVE: What? Extra point?
GEORDIE: Winning is winning.
A "W" is a "W".
SANDRO: Doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile.
Winning's winning.
DAVE: Okay, so if we can get a 300 pounder, or a 1,000 pounder.
You'd be okay with a 300-pounder?
No.
SANDRO: Not really, no.
GEORDIE: Whatever gets you ahead.
You win by a second or a hundredth.
A "W" is a "W".
DAVE: We're going for the touchdown, boys.
MARCIANO: How was your date with, what's his face, you know,
the kid with all that hair?
ANGELICA: My date actually went pretty well.
MARCIANO: So do you like him or do you want me to meet him?
ANGELICA: I'm definitely not ready for that.
JASON: You want your brother to meet him?
ANGELICA: No! MARCIANO: Does he have a job? ANGELICA: Sort of.
JASON: Ooh.
MARCIANO: What do you mean sort of?
JOE: I don't like that.
ANGELICA: He's not a fisherman.
MARCIANO: That's unfortunate.
Makes me kinda hate him already.
ANGELICA: He's, he freelances.
MARCIANO: That's like very close to freeloading.
We should tell him to come out here.
We'll give him a real job.
We'll take all the help we can get to get one more Bluefin
before the season's over.
JOE: What'd you say, you want to bring him out fishing?
ANGELICA: Absolutely not.
[beeping]
MARCIANO: There's one. Streaking up!
JASON: Yeah.
MARCIANO: Chase the pollock out.
Let's go here. Let's get a bite.
JASON: That was a nice fish too.
JOE: Yeah.
JASON: Coming back up again maybe.
JOE: He's got it, he's got it, he's got it, he's got it.
JASON: Oh, he's-he might have had it, Dave.
MARCIANO: What?
JASON: He might have just had it.
MARCIANO: Here.
JASON: Oh, here he goes, here he goes.
He's got it! He's got it! He's got it!
JOE: He's got it! JASON: We're on! JOE: We're on!
JASON: I got you, Dave. Start the boat.
Go ahead, Joe. Let me get you, Dave.
MARCIANO: Got it? JASON: Yeah.
MARCIANO: Still there, Jay? JASON: Yup.
MARCIANO: Fish are all [bleep] crazy out here.
JASON: All wild. [bleep].
JOE: He's going under the boat!
JASON: Go! Forward!
JOE: If the line hits the boat, we'll lose him.
JASON: Go out there and tell him,
get on the left side of the ball.
MARCIANO: Yeah, yeah, Jay. Get it those [bleep] holder.
JASON: I know. I have to [bleep] go underneath.
So now, he's gonna get on the left side of that ball.
MARCIANO: Yeah, you got to get it in the holder for me before I do anything.
JASON: He was going under the boat.
That's why I had to pull the rod up like that.
MARCIANO: Okay. Okay. Nice and easy, Jay. Nice and easy.
JASON: Yeah. Forward! I got him here.
MARCIANO: Get the rod.
JASON: Spazzing out a little. He's gonna come forward.
MARCIANO: Yeah. Might be bigger than we think, Jay.
JASON: You wanna slide it over to the other side, Dave?
MARCIANO: Ready? Here we go.
I'm gonna go after him.
There you go, good switch guys.
JASON: That's you, bud. Yeah, that's all you.
JOE: He's coming at us! He's coming at us!
Forward!
ANGELICA: Forward? JASON: Forward!
MARCIANO: Focus here. JASON: Right here?
He's gonna go on outside now? Wild little fish, huh?
MARCIANO: Just nice and easy.
That looks like a 300. Definitely not a short.
Get ready to switch. Gel's ready to go.
JASON: Yeah, Joe. You ready for Gel?
JOE: All right, yeah. Gel, get on it.
JASON: Reel, reel, reel, reel. Crank, crank, crank, crank!
JOE: Good job. Good job. JASON: Reach for the sky. JOE: Reach for the sky.
JASON: This fish could make or break our season.
Come on, fish.
JOE: Good job, Gel.
MARCIANO: You're struggling.
JASON: All over the place, man.
Coming fast, Dave. Coming fast.
Leader!
MARCIANO: That's a leader. ANGELICA: Leader!
JASON: Coming fast. Leader!
JOE: I got this, Gel.
MARCIANO: We're gonna get him.
JASON: Coming right up on top.
There you go. Yup. Keep him coming, keep him coming.
ANGELICA: There he is.
JOE: Oh. JASON: Stop! MARCIANO: Do it!
JASON: No, I can't [bleep] see him.
Keep him coming. Keep him coming.
ANGELICA: Come on.
JASON: He's gonna come up.
Keep going. Yup, right there.
JOE: There he is. Deep color. Deep color. Wow, he's huge!
ANGELICA: Come on. JASON: I hit him.
JOE: I don't think you got him very good.
He's starting to go under the boat a little bit.
MARCIANO: Okay.
JASON: Bump it forward. JOE: This fish is crazy. JASON: [bleep] wild.
MARCIANO: There he is. Deep color again.
Get another shot in him now.
Missed him!
JOE: He's going under the boat!
MARCIANO: No, no, no, no!
JASON: Gaff quick. Right over here.
ANGELICA: Beat ya.
JOE: Watch out that rod.
Watch out, watch out, watch out!
MARCIANO: Tail out of the water.
ANGELICA: Okay.
MARCIANO: All right, we did it.
JASON: Good job, Dave. MARCIANO: All right.
Yeah, well done. Well done. Yeah, well done.
JASON: Good job. JOE: Hey, another one. Good job.
JASON: Good job.
MARCIANO: This fish means paychecks for the crew here.
There is still a few days left.
We've still got time to get another one.
Over the rail.
JASON: That's a nice fish.
MARCIANO: That's a beautiful fish.
JOE: Big [bleep] nice. JASON: [bleep] nice. JOE: Nice-looking fish.
JASON: What a nice-looking fish.
JOE: Yeah, what do we got? What do we got?
MARCIANO: Let's see what he measures.
Pull it tight there, Joe.
Good job. Good job. Good job.
JOE: 94. JASON: 94. MARCIANO: 94. All right.
You guys can take it from here.
Let's get him all cleaned up, iced up.
Wake me up when it's time to cash the check.
JOE: All right. JASON: All right.
TYLER: We will put meat on the deck.
We just gotta put in our time.
Sometimes this place is as fast as you can get them.
Put 'em out. Put 'em out. Put 'em out.
The fish are frothing at the mouth.
Other times the fish just aren't here and you gotta wait them out.
The most important thing is keep baits in the water,
because when the fish do decide to feed,
if you got baits there, you're gonna go off.
The pressure's on because Hot Tuna took the lead earlier this week
and Dot Com caught a fish and pushed us into third place.
It's brutal you know.
It's mentally-exhausting, you know, when you get,
when you've worked so hard and all of a sudden,
the last week of the season it's all coming down to
this and you can't put one on the deck, it's brutal.
We're looking at some good fishing in the morning.
Based off the report I got, it's gonna be a morning show.
So we got to get 'em.
So what do I need to do?
MARISSA: We got a lot of baits in the live well.
TYLER: Should we move back up there in the shoal?
Or do we just go to sleep and then go fishing at like 3:00 am?
MARISSA: Okay.
TYLER: That sounds like a good plan.
MARISSA: It would be awesome if Tyler and I were able to
take the title in my first season on the Pinwheel.
Duffy's the one who taught me the most about fishing,
so I know it would mean a lot to him that I'm the one on the back deck
filling in for him.
Turn the light off, Tyler.
TYLER: Goodnight, Merm.
[beeping]
Merm, wake up! We're marking!
MARISSA: We're on! TYLER: Let's get them.
Stretched out for sure. This one's huge.
Tail's wrapped something already.
Oh.
MARISSA: Where did my gloves go?
TYLER: Merm, on the rod.
MARISSA: Woo! Something just happened to him.
TYLER: Do I need to move it? MARISSA: Yup. TYLER: There you go.
Get some, Merm.
Reel, reel, reel, reel, reel. We got to get him.
We're winning this game no matter what.
Keep going. Keep going. Don't let him break the line.
[line snap]
MARISSA: Oh, God. TYLER: What happened?
Did he come off? He come off?
MARISSA: Yeah. He came off. TYLER: Oh.
What a bummer.
MARISSA: What a bummer. TYLER: Oh. It's heartbreaking.
This is our second loss on the trip.
Dave and TJ are catching fish and we're losing 'em.
It sucks because that might be the last shot you get for the season.
What a [bleep] bummer.
Absolutely brutal.
MARISSA: That was a monster. TYLER: That was a big one.
No doubt about it.
Yeah, now we ain't going to sleep.
MARISSA: What a disaster.
JASON: Well, we got one, guys.
MARCIANO: What's going on, man?
BUBBA: Same old.
MARCIANO: We got a fish for you anyway.
It's a real nice one.
Let's get him off the boat and I really think you're gonna like the quality.
BUBBA: Sounds good. ANGELICA: Got it. JOE: Upsy daisies.
MARCIANO: Up. What do we got? What do we got?
BUBBA: 369 pounds dressed.
ANGELICA: Nice. JOE: Not bad at all.
MARCIANO: Yeah, we'll take it. We'll take it. We'll come up.
We'll see what he looks like on the inside.
We're hoping for a solid price for this fish so everyone gets
a good paycheck.
What do we got, Bubba?
BUBBA: Well, first glance, color's actually really nice on it.
MARCIANO: Yup.
BUBBA: Fat-wise, I mean, you got some fat in the minors.
Very little transfer over to the majors.
MARCIANO: Right.
BUBBA: Which, you know got a little bit of fat.
MARCIANO: Just start, just starting to get there.
BUBBA: Exactly. The core's no burn at all.
MARCIANO: Yeah. BUBBA: Um.
JASON: Come on, you're killing me.
Just give us the price.
BUBBA: The way the market is,
I'll give you 15 bucks a pound.
MARCIANO: Nice. We'll take it.
All right. That's a good score.
JOE: We'll take it. We'll take it.
MARCIANO: Thank you, Bubba. It's a pleasure as always.
I'm thankful we got another paycheck.
But we're even happier we can get back on the water for the final
day of the season.
That means we get another shot at another paycheck.
That would be terrific.
Let's go do it again.
PAUL: Already [bleep] eaten by a squid.
It's like the tenth one that's got eaten in five seconds.
RICK: Yeah, the squid are ferocious.
Any choice baits we put down.
Herring, whiting, you name it.
Squid are gonna eat it.
PAUL: This has been a lousy week.
First we have sharks.
And now we got the damn squid.
And no tuna fish.
Tomorrow's the last day of the season and I'm getting nervous.
I know we're not gonna win this thing,
but we gotta get at least one more paycheck.
Can't fish right now without squid.
You have to have a squid.
They are least likely to eat themselves,
but they probably will.
A late season giant Bluefin will be a big prize Bluefin.
That's what it's all about for us.
Payday, baby.
[beeping]
RICK: We're marking. PAUL: All right.
[beeping]
RICK: We're on! PAUL: Yeah. RICK: Yeah.
PAUL: Here we go. RICK: Yeah, we're on! PAUL: Here we go.
We're on! I need you, buddy. I need you.
RICK: I'm coming. I'm coming.
PAUL: It's all right. Take your time, Rick.
He's running. Let him run.
RICK: Nice and tight right now.
PAUL: I wanna get away from our anchor.
RICK: Just staying tight, Paulie. Still taking line.
PAUL: He's a big fish. RICK: In the dacron.
PAUL: I saw him take it.
Here, go ahead. Yeah.
RICK: We got a beauty on the line here.
He's angry.
We're just happy to get a bite right now.
We know we can.
PAUL: Of course, it feels good to get a bite.
It feels better to get him.
RICK: Now, we have earned anything yet.
We got to catch the fish.
PAUL: Let's put it this way,
we've worked long and hard to get the bite.
RICK: Just staying nice and tight, Paul.
PAUL: He's in a pinwheel.
Just keep him coming all right.
See how big he is, you know?
We would love to be able to land one more tuna.
Me and Ricky gotta get one last paycheck just to end on a high note.
RICK: Taking line. PAUL: Oh, good.
Keeper if he's taking that line.
RICK: Taking a little run.
Whatever, buddy.
There's no time left in the season.
This fish means the world to Paul and I right now.
PAUL: You're doing really good, Rick.
RICK: And I hope he's getting tired.
Now the swiveled out of the water.
PAUL: Oh?
We don't have nothing. Chafe?
RICK: Pulled the hook. PAUL: Pulled the hook.
Let me look for my anchor.
See, we never toot our horns and jinxed ourselves by talking about it.
We never do that, ever.
RICK: Right at the [bleep] boat.
Right at the boat. Pulled the hook.
Never had a hook set.
PAUL: It's devastating when you lose a fish,
especially at the end of the year.
It's not over yet, but you never know which fish could be your last.
RICK: [bleep]. Unbelievable. We are running out of time.
PAUL: Like I said, a hook-up does not pay your bills.
You need fish on the deck.
MARCIANO: Looks like a fishy morning, you think, Jay?
JASON: Yup.
MARCIANO: Yeah, hopefully here we'll get a fish.
Last day of the season.
See if we can pull a monkey out of our ass.
We caught a fish the other day and we couldn't be happier.
That said, the season isn't over till the fat lady leaves the building.
If there's a chance we can get one more paycheck,
we're gonna go for it.
JOE: We really want to catch one more fish and
I think that'll be a slam-dunk to end our season.
ANGELICA: Here's hoping we get lucky.
JOE: We only have till 12:00am tonight to bring in a tuna.
PAUL: We got one out! Woo!
RICK: We're fishing.
PAUL: Yesterday, we lost a fish.
It was devastating to have that happen so close to the end of the season.
But we're gonna go all out.
We are gonna kill it to the end.
We're hoping that we can pull one out of here today,
because boy, do we need one.
TJ: The sun's starting to come up,
that should change.
JARRETT: Beautiful.
TJ: We're getting close to the edge right now,
trying to put a few baits in the well and just try to round them up.
We are so unbelievably happy right now to be sitting on top going into
the final countdown.
But the only way to ensure the win is to catch a
jumbo tuna today and crush Pinwheel and Dot-Com.
There's no reason why we can't be at the top of the leaderboard
when this thing's all done.
Just got to find that herd.
I'm pretty confident we will here in the next couple hours.
BRAD: We're putting out an eagle claw osprey.
LANCE: So we're gonna try something a little different this time.
BRAD: All right.
LANCE: Hopefully we'll get another hookup before it's over.
We've had a rough season but I'm very thankful for the paycheck we got
the other day.
But to get one more before the sun goes down would mean everything to our families.
BRAD: We're gonna get 'em.
LANCE: Ten, four. Over and out.
DAVE: I want another fish now more so than all season especially when TJ's on top.
SANDRO: Sucks. DAVE: Tough. It's tough to watch.
We're in second place going into the final round.
And we worked too hard all season to be second rate.
I want to win. It's all or nothing.
First place is for winners and second place is for losers.
But we'll see.
I don't see Tyler out here.
I can guarantee he's somewhere close by.
He needs that one more fish as we do also.
TYLER: It's the last day of the season.
Everything we worked for all season comes down to today.
Oh, [bleep]! Crow.
MARISSA: We got them?
TYLER: We're gonna need a bigger boat, Merm.
MARISSA: What happened? TYLER: Shark ate our bait.
That was a shark.
MARISSA: I thought we were marking the tuna.
TYLER: Marked a tuna on the bottom,
but that must have been a big shark ate it on the way up.
Gonna need a bigger boat, Merm.
MARISSA: I like this one.
TYLER: We're out here fishing for Duffy and I feel like we're
letting him down.
TJ took the lead and Dot-Com got ahead of us.
Nothing more frustrating than that.
Away we go.
Going down to see what's down there.
This is our Hail Mary pass and I'm pulling out the big guns.
My electric deep drop reel.
With this, I can drop the line down further than a regular
rod and reel and try and go for the fish that are swimming deep.
Marking 'em!
The problem is, I've never caught a bluefin on this rod before.
Yeah, that's what we wanted.
[beeping]
Marking 'em. Marking 'em!
Oh, it's a tuna all right.
We're on! We're on, baby!
Taking all my line, bro.
Taking line, taking line.
I need you to reel in that one back there.
Pull in those weights.
This is all trial and error for me.
This is brand new to me.
This is something I added into the repertoire.
I just figured we'd throw it out there.
We're just trying to change anything,
never caught a bluefin on this.
I hope we don't lose it.
Technology has come a long way.
Now they've got these reels that will reel them in for you.
So I got one.
Dammit. It doesn't work though.
Duffy and I actually had the electric reel with us down in
the Outer Banks last year.
All right.
DUFFY: Look at that [bleep] spool.
TYLER: Dropping the secret weapon for the first time.
Going deep.
DUFFY: Deeper than anyone's ever fished before.
TYLER: But we never hooked up on it.
I just hope we can keep this thing working because we
really need this fish.
Whatever we can do to just change things up and try to
get a fish on the boat.
That's why we busted this thing out.
Just stay on the reel, Merm.
Stay on the reel.
This is so cool right here.
Even though that thing's turning,
ain't nothing changed about this game.
It's still hard as hell to catch this thing.
MARISSA: Yeah, we still have to hook it.
TYLER: Still takes the art into fishing.
You know, we're still trying to finesse these fish in.
We're using light drag, but it just allows us to use
this motor to stay tight on this fish.
You know, and after we pulled so many hooks out here and lost so many fish,
I just figured I'll put it out there and see
if I can't break the ice.
How's it feel? Like a big one, right?
MARISSA: Feels like a really big one.
I might have to switch thumbs.
TYLER: Still very nervous about this because we've never done it before.
MARISSA: We'll make it happen, Ty.
We've got to get this one.
Come on, tuna.
TYLER: Stay on the button, Merm.
Stay on the button. Stay on the button.
MARISSA: I'm on the button.
TYLER: Let me know when swivel gets close.
MARISSA: Okay, I'm looking for the swivel.
TYLER: Because the swivel can't flick through that.
It's right there.
Whoo! Sick! This is cool.
Look at him dumping us. Ooh, some heat on there.
Yes! Yes! Oh, he's big.
He's real big on the screen.
Big mark!
Pretty sure if Duffy is here right now wishing he was
pushing the button.
He'd be having a blast.
"T, T, this is so cool, T."
Half the reason I got this thing was for him.
Me and him were an unstoppable team.
I miss you, buddy.
Whoo, whoo. Okay, whoa, whoa, easy.
Stop with the button. Harpoon.
MARISSA: Right here with the harpoon.
TYLER: Okay. Hold on. MARISSA: It's right here.
TYLER: Button. On the button, Merm. On the button.
MARISSA: Okay.
TYLER: The disadvantages of the deep drop reel are when you get the fish
up close to the boat.
You can't finesse the rod.
You can't make half turn cranks when you just want to
get a little bit of line.
The deep rod reel kind of takes it all or gets nothing.
Easy.
MARISSA: He's right there. He's beautiful.
Get him, Ty.
TYLER: Got him! Drop the button. Off the button.
Tail gaff. Tail gaff. Tail gaff.
MARISSA: Off the button. Off the button.
TYLER: Thanks, Duffy. Whoo!
Come here with the tail rope.
MARISSA: Tail rope. TYLER: Ah! Pull it tight, Merm. Pull it tight.
Woo! Big boy!
MARISSA: Whoo! Whoo! Look at this one, Ty.
All your hard work paid off.
TYLER: All right, let's go down, Merm.
This is a nice one. Go down.
Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo. What do we got?
Good looking fish.
96 incher.
MARISSA: Wow! Nice job, Ty.
TYLER: I'm super stoked.
The deep drop reel worked out for us.
We got a nice fish on the deck and I hope this puts us back in the lead.
I was starting to think it was over.
But this fish gives us a shot.
Thank the heavens we're not going home empty.
TYLER [over radio]: Yo, yo. I got him.
DAVE: With only hours to go Pinwheel has caught a fish.
SANDRO: What the [bleep]?
You gotta be [bleep] kidding me right now.
DAVE: Now besides stressing out about TJ being ahead of us,
I have to worry about Tyler leapfrogging us.
SANDRO: Come on.
DAVE: Everybody else has tuna.
TJ: Why the [bleep] can't we get bites?
Girls!
I can't believe Tyler got one.
We're on top and we want to stay on top.
This could really happen for us.
We could win for the first time ever.
We want this so bad we can taste it.
We just need one more quality fish and it's ours.
If they're barking, that means we're in the right spot.
If there's whales, there's tuna.
Easy, easy, easy, easy.
DAVE: Here he comes. Coming up!
[beeping]
TJ: Here we go! We're marking one.
GEORDIE: Just relax, Dave. It's okay.
[reel unspooling rapidly]
DAVE: We're on. Sandro, hurry up!
GEORDIE: That down-rod's still, that down-rod is still in.
DAVE: Yep, yep, okay. Pull it.
Geordie I'm... I got you.
SANDRO: I got to get off the anchor here. GEORDIE: Yeah.
TJ: It's unbelievable.
[barking]
[reel unspooling rapidly]
We're on! We're on!
Go to the anchor, anchor, anchor!
DAVE: How you looking, Geordie, okay?
GEORDIE: You're all right for now.
JARRETT: Clear! Whoo! Yeah!
Move it. Move it.
TJ: Go, go, go, go, go.
Get inside. Get inside. Get inside.
This could clinch the win for us.
DAVE: Over and under.
DAVE: You okay, Geordie? SANDRO: [bleep]! GEORDIE: Yup.
SANDRO: [bleep] safety lines.
DAVE: You want to pay for a reel?
We'll take 'em off.
All right, we're off the anchor, Sandro?
SANDRO: Yes. DAVE: Oh, yeah.
Hold, hold, hold. Hold.
SANDRO: It's just wrapped once, Dave.
I'm gonna cut it when it gets closer.
DAVE: No, just go over and under.
SANDRO: I can't. Around, I got to go around a few times.
DAVE: I know what you're, let's do it.
SANDRO: We'll just [bleep] cut it.
DAVE: Go ahead.
This is the most important fish of the season.
This is our last chance to take the lead and we're all
feeling the pressure.
Arguing isn't gonna help us.
Catching this fish will.
TJ: We need this one. Take your time.
It's a big one here.
JARRETT: Feels like a humongous fish.
He's taking a lot of line. There's a lot of weight on it.
It feels huge.
TJ: Come on, baby! Come on, baby!
Holy [bleep], we can't lose this fish.
Watch, don't turn to our anchor.
JARRETT: Watch out!
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
DAVE: I don't know what, I'll let you finish.
SANDRO: I'm gonna [bleep] it today.
DAVE: Relax. Relax. What are you [bleep] yelling for?
Just go around it.
SANDRO: I'm gonna go around it.
DAVE: Not gonna back. Why do you got to yell?
Aren't we a part of the same team?
SANDRO: Because I'm [bleep] doing it.
I can see what's going on.
SANDRO: Brought it around, didn't I?
[bleep]
DAVE: Don't yell at me. I won't yell at you.
And especially don't yell at me.
Don't make it like I don't know what I'm doing.
SANDRO: Don't make it like I don't know what I'm [bleep] doing.
DAVE: I don't. Two different opinions.
I'm the captain, you're a captain.
Don't tell me what to do.
GEORDIE: It's a tight race for the finish here between three boats.
Us and Pinwheel and the Hot Tuna are in a neck and neck battle.
So everyone's feeling pressure to catch this one.
DAVE: Do that to anybody else's boat, they'd be pissed off.
SANDRO: Shut the [bleep] up.
TJ: Watch it, don't turn into our anchor.
Watch out, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Try and gain some line back.
This could clinch the win for us.
Careful, let's not lose him here.
JARRETT: Damn! He's going right into the anchor.
Yeah, just got to hold him for a minute.
JARRETT: He's all tangled up in the anchor line.
TJ: Let me get a gaff.
JARRETT: Hurry up before he breaks off.
TJ: [bleep]. [bleep]! Broke off, right?
JARRETT: Yeah, he's off. [bleep]!
TJ: He's gone and, you know, the disappointment is at an all-time high.
We don't have much time left.
We knew this was the one and it just swim away.
Absolute heartbreaker, man. Sucks.
DAVE: Hey, look. Get over it, all right?
Just get over it.
SANDRO: Towards the end of the year,
you know it's gonna be one of your last fish.
It's very nerve-wracking.
Especially with the competition so tight.
We all want to win this thing.
DAVE: All right. He's the real deal.
GEORDIE: Yeah. DAVE: This is it.
This is the fish that could make us winners...
We need this right here.
Come on. Let's get this one.
Or losers.
A little bit of color. Come on, Sandro.
Good job. Good job. Good job.
SANDRO: Reverse. GEORDIE: Swivel.
He's gonna come under the boat here.
DAVE: We can't lose this one.
GEORDIE: Drop it right in his noggin.
Nice shot!
DAVE: Still don't have him yet.
If I pull on this I could part his line.
SANDRO: Careful with that line.
DAVE: A little more. SANDRO: Okay.
GEORDIE: He's coming. He's coming. He's coming.
DAVE: Okay, Geordie. There we go.
SANDRO: Easy, easy! DAVE: I got it.
Come left, Sandro.
GEORDIE: Come to me with that gaff.
SANDRO: Yes, sir. DAVE: Got it, Geordie? GEORDIE: Yup.
That's a little one by our standards.
DAVE: Sandro, Geordie, and I, we have a common goal.
We want to win.
So sure, when you get down to it,
the pressure to catch is tremendous.
GEORDIE: 81.
DAVE: 81, wow. Good job. High five.
But with this tuna, all is forgiven.
Dad is always right.
GEORDIE: I'm leaving that one alone.
TYLER: Pinwheeling, baby!
We got another nice one for you.
DENNIS: That's exciting.
TYLER: Hope you got some good money for us.
DENNIS: Well, let's check it out.
TYLER: Sounds good. It's a nice cutie, isn't it?
DENNIS: Awesome.
MARISSA: How much does it weigh?
DENNIS: 434 pounds, dressed.
TYLER: Wow. MARISSA: Wow, that's a big one.
DENNIS: Let's check it out.
Nice meat quality.
There's a lot of fat inside this fish.
It's one of those fish that's nice and oily.
Let's see what the core looks like.
TYLER: Moment of truth.
DENNIS: Beautiful. Really nice core color.
It's a beautiful core color. It's a nice fish.
TYLER: What can a fish like this do for us?
We need some big money.
DENNIS: I'm gonna pay you $24 a pound today.
TYLER: Wow. MARISSA: Wow. Nice.
TYLER: Bang! Awesome. Kick butt. Way to go, Merm.
Two high fives on that one.
Pound. Woo! Thank you D-bone.
DENNIS: Nice job. MARISSA: Thank you.
TYLER: Yes! Over ten grand for this fish.
It puts us back in the lead.
I just hope it's enough to hold out over Dot-Com.
Yes! I love it.
Hey, Duff. Whatever happens.
I hope Merm and I did you proud.
MARISSA: Tyler and I gave this season everything that we had.
Duffy would be really proud of Tyler for sticking it out,
pulling it together and fishing in his honor.
I think Duffy would be really proud of me because I just
took everything that Duffy has taught me and I just wish
I could tell him thank you for everything that he's done.
TYLER: Dave's got to be losing it right now.
NARRATOR: Pinwheel's last catch for Duffy this season
puts them back on top with a $5,000 lead over rival
Fishing Vessel Tuna Dot Com
who has yet to weigh in their final fish.
PJ: Going in strong to finish it out, huh?
SANDRO: Right. PJ: Attaboy.
DAVE: Got another one. PJ: Got another one.
All right. Let's check it out.
DAVE: We're in third place once again.
What do you got for a dress weight, PJ?
PJ: 235 pounds. GEORDIE: Yeah.
DAVE: Is this the ideal last fish of the season? No.
PJ: It's all right.
DAVE: All we could do now is hope for a good price if we
have any shot at winning this season.
PJ: Let's check it out. SANDRO: Beautiful. PJ: Nice fish, guys.
Inside core color's fine. Nice red. This is loaded with fat.
Oily.
DAVE: What do you think? PJ: This one here.
DAVE: This one's for all the marbles.
PJ: $26 a pound.
SANDRO: Yeah! That's awesome.
DAVE: Yeah. Thanks guys. GEORDIE: That's good.
DAVE: This fish gets us to victory.
"FV" in Tuna Dot-Com stands for "First" and "Victorious" once again.
It's a good way to wrap up the season here.
GEORDIE: Nice [bleep] job, boys.
SANDRO: Yeah! GEORDIE: Oh. That was awesome.
NARRATOR: Fishing Vessel Tuna.Com's small fish commands
a high enough price to topple Pinwheel into second place and
push Hot Tuna into third.
LANCE: It's over. Finished.
[humming "Taps"]
We fell short of our expectations.
But it's wicked awesome to end the season with one final fish
and one final paycheck to take home to the family.
BRAD: Come on. Let's go.
PAUL: I'd love to keep fishing, but we can't.
That's it. It's over.
And thank God to Ricky for putting up with all my crap this year.
RICK: Hey, we had a good season.
PAUL: He hung in there and we did it again,
as I promised we would.
I'm gonna try and get a bigger boat next year and see what I can do.
MARCIANO: We're calling it quits here.
It was great having Jay back.
And as usual Angelica and Joe did a great job.
It made it real easy this year to catch a few fish.
We didn't catch as many as we wanted.
But we can look forward to going back to the Outer Banks now.
And catching a few fish there.
TJ: All right, boys. That's it.
2018 bluefin tuna season in Gloucester officially over.
Done and done.
These guys can say what they want,
but they better watch out for the Hot Tuna next season.
We came so close to winning.
We didn't finish on top, but you know what we were in the
hunt until the end and there's always next year.
We're headed down to the Outer Banks.
We're not gonna let up.
We know one day that top spot will be ours.
The drinks are on me tonight.
JARRETT: Sounds good. TJ: All right, boys.
MIKE: Game over. JARRETT: Sweet.
DAVE: We did it again.
That's five out of eight seasons.
Awesome. Awesome job.
SANDRO: Nice. DAVE: Awesome. Awesome.
And let's do it again next year.
SANDRO: You know what that makes us?
DAVE: What does that make us? SANDRO: Dynasty.
DAVE: Nothing comes easy in tuna fishing.
I could not have done it without my crew.
Hopefully when we come back next year,
we could do it once again.
Good job.
SANDRO: Nice.
DAVE: We may have won this season,
but I got to hand it to Tyler.
After all he's been through, he's an absolute incredible competitor.
TYLER: We had a wonderful season.
We fished our butts off for Duffy.
Duffy was with us in spirit the entire time.
It was so emotional because everywhere I looked around my boat was,
I was reminded so much of my good friend.
DUFFY: We're on, baby! We're on!
TYLER: What we're gonna do here tonight is a couple of
his friends and his family are come down here,
we're gonna set off some candles.
We're gonna talk about Duffy.
We're gonna talk about how much we miss the guy and we're
gonna do everything we can to try and honor him and
just get through what we got to get through.
Because, you know, the world's still turning.
Life's still going.
But at the end of the day,
we'll never forget Duffy Wilson.
Everyone light one.
DONNA: Do you think Nick's laughing at us?
MARISSA: Of course he is.
MAN: Yeah. I don't even want to tell you what he'd be saying.
DONNA: Nick's laughing at us.
Bunch of nuts.
Okay, I feel like the wind will take it.
MARISSA: Yes.
WOMAN: Yeah! Whoo! MAN: Yeah!
TYLER: Go get him, Nick. DONNA: We really miss him.
Now, he's free. He's free as a bird.
TYLER: Not a day will go by that we won't think about Nick.
My sister and I we tried to honor him in the best way we
could because there is never, ever gonna be replacing Nick.
MARISSA: Oh, look at it go.
TYLER: He's just waddling around.
He's going out to sea.
MARISSA: Tyler.
TYLER: I miss him forever. I love him forever.
Thank you so much for helping me get through this season.
I really appreciate it.
DUFFY: Yeah, baby! Yeah! TYLER: Yeah!
Go get 'em, Duff man. We love you.
