Narrator: On this episode.
Tyler: Oh, we're on!
Dave: Gloucester
style right here.
Jarrett: Game on, baby.
Narrator: The pinwheel's
brother-sister crew.
Tyler: Here we go.
Game on.
Narrator: Battle
for respect.
Tyler: The brother
and sister team are
kicking butt.
Marissa: Getting
the job done.
Nick: Will they succeed?
Probably not.
Narrator: And a
place among the
outer banks best.
Zack: Woo! Burning
it down.
Nick: I got him on hydros!
Tj: Good job, buddy. Woo!
Jarrett: Woo!
Dave: Love the
outer banks.
Tyler: Get him, merm.
Get him!
Narrator: Pride.
Tyler: The pressure's on,
this is the all-star
game. Big waves merm.
Narrator: And paychecks
are on the line.
Daniel: Go, go, go!
Tyler: We're catching
tunas.
Paul: Oh!
Jarrett: Wow!
Narrator: As the
competition shifts
into high gear.
Brandan: [laughs] woo!
Narrator: On wicked
tuna outer banks.
Tyler: Let's do what we
do best, catch tunas.
Narrator: Little shell leads
the fleet over champion
boats fishin' frenzy,
fishing vessel-tuna.Com
and hot tuna.
Meanwhile, pinwheel is
struggling to make it's
mark on the competition.
Tyler: Time to go
fishing, mermy. Time
to go tuna fishing.
We need to get
the job done.
Marissa: I got to do the
front windows real quick.
Tyler: We're stoked. We
just unloaded a fish.
Really pumped about it.
We're on the board.
Now we can get like,
in the game and start
competing with these guys.
I mean, all these guys
have two three guys in
the back of the boat.
They got full time
crews professional
tuna fishermen.
Just merm and I.
So we definitely, the
cards are stacked against
us, but this is game on.
Marissa: Please
don't be streaky.
Tyler: All right,
merm. Let's go do
this damn thing.
Let's go.
Marissa: Oh, this
is gonna be another
good trip. I feel it
tyler: Put it on the
line and get to the
promised land.
We're gonna catch
some tunas.
Nick: Forty miles
southeast of
oregon inlet.
Three men alone on a
fishing vessel, hunting for
the elusive bluefin tuna.
Will they succeed?
Probably not.
Even though we're in first
place, this competition,
it's a numbers game.
There are a few
other boats with
two fish like us,
but we got bigger
and better fish.
So we're gonna stick
to what got us here,
trolling the greenstick.
Time to go fishing so
we're gonna set out.
I think the dot-com is over
there, but who the hell
knows what they're up to.
Dave: Gloucester style.
Paul: We're gonna get
one this trip right here.
Dave: Paul, help him
with the outrigger.
Paul: Oh, is that
what he's doing?
Where you at?
Hey, hey, hey.
How you doing, buddy?
Dave: Even though
we've got two fish,
we're sitting in the middle
of the pack right now.
And you know to be honest
that's just not sitting
well with me.
Paul: Coming at you.
You be careful.
Dave: So while sandro
and paul get us prepped
for the troll,
I'm gonna do what keeps
us ahead each season in
gloucester and bait fish.
Here they are. Wow!
Nick: Whoa! Marking
'em right now.
Jig it! 10 fathom! Jig
it! It looks good.
Paul: Right in front of
us. Tunas right here.
Dave: Jumping?
Paul: Stacked up brother.
Woo!
Nick: Keep jigging it.
Here they come again.
Cliff: Just jig it.
Nick: I can't believe we
haven't had a bite yet.
Sandro: What he say?
Paul: He ain't had
a bite yet.
Sandro: Let's get a bite.
Nick: Here they come.
Come on, baby.
Jig it! Jig it!
Jig it, brandan!
There he goes!
Cliff: I got him on
hydros. Hydros!
Nick: How about that,
we're on.
Paul: Got 'em on.
Sandro: They had
another bite?
Paul: Ooh, they're jumping
right in front of us.
Sandro: Come on eat.
Paul: Facing the
blues, baby. Woo!
Sandro: We're on!
We're on! We're on!
Oh, baby we're on!
Dave: Here we go!
That's what I'm talking
about. That's it.
Sandro: Watch that
rod bend over.
Dave: Wow, he
absolutely smoked it.
Gloucester style right
here, on the drift.
Nick: I do love a
greenstick.
Come on, baby!
Make it happen.
Sandro: How much better
is that bite than a
troll bite? My lord.
Dave: Ten times better.
Sandro: It's like
twenty times, a
hundred times better.
Dave: A little bit
of north down south.
Sandro: Still tunas.
Whether up here or
down there.
Dave: Okay. You
ready, san?
Cliff: All right.
Hold on, boys.
Damn that wind's
picking up ain't it?
Paul: Hold on!
Big waves.
Sandro: Oh, right
in my ear.
[laughs]
the waves are helping
him a little bit.
Paul: Take our time, guys.
Dave: We got a long
way to go.
Nick: A million ways
you can go wrong.
There's only one
way it goes right.
That's if we get the fish.
Ball's right there, cliff.
All right, here
he comes brandan.
Here comes the drop. Get
it, brandan, get it.
Nice.
Dave: He's close.
This is crazy.
Sandro: He's got
to be gut hooked.
Dave: Yeah. Tail wrapped
maybe. Who knows?
Hey, paul. We're getting
pretty close here.
Nick: Yeah, he's
close. Once that three
drops off brandan.
Brandan: Yes sir. He's
gonna be on that last one.
I swear the last
one gets 'em, bud.
Dave: He's close! A
hundred feet. Get ready
to throw.
Paul: Yeah.
Nick: Yeah, I mean,
he's coming up slowly up.
You know, see the line?
Brandan: I got a dart pole.
Nick: All right. He's
coming up.
Dave: Fifty feet! Here
he comes. Swivel!
Swivel, right here.
Good color! Good color.
Come on payday!
Sandro: Here comes the tail.
Oh, no way! It's a big a*s
hammerhead.
Dave: Bummer. Wow, a
major disappointment.
Nick: There ain't
no other drops to
get tangled.
It's just us and
the fish. All
right, slow down.
Slow down, slow
down, slow down!
Stop right there.
Real easy now we're tight.
All right, there's the
fish, I can see him.
Get him, brandan.
Tail gaff. Tail gaff.
Tail rope, cliff.
The dart is out.
The dart is out.
Tail rope, quick!
[inaudible]
-help him, help him!
Cliff: Right there,
I got it. I got it.
Nick: Nice.
Woo!
Hey, boys, we're
going home.
Cliff: The sun ain't
even getting up yet
and we got a fat one.
Put her in gear, cap. Yes!
Nick: Wow, that was
worth the trip out here.
Dave: Greenstick
nick got 'em again.
Tj: Just so you know,
people gonna say the
stick is cheating.
Nick: Cheating?
No, come on.
Paul: Yeah, you're
never gonna compete
with a greenstick.
You just can't.
-Celebrate
-now pull body
cliff: Damn, that's
a nice one boys.
Brandan: Yeah, baby!
Cliff: Holy crap.
Let's see how big he
is, boys. Let's see
what we got here.
I like it when you
keep pulling that
way. 102 baby.
Nick: A hundred
two-incher. Yeah!
Cliff: Yeah!
Nick: It's the best of the
best out here right now
and I just put another
tuna on my deck.
That's because I'm the
best of them all. Bam!
Brandan: I'm so
happy right now.
I'm so happy. Woo!
The stick, baby!
Talk junk about it all
you want. It works.
Nick: Winning
ain't cheating.
Tj: Why don't they
bite our stick anymore?
They used to bite our
stick. What happened?
Jarrett: They're coming,
man. They're coming.
Tj: Saying what are we
doing out here, daddy?
What are we doing
out here, daddy huh?
My dad couldn't come
with us this trip,
so I brought along our
newest crew member.
You're gonna get a tuna?
Come on get me a tuna.
Get me a tuna.
Drive the boat, get
me a tuna.
No, this is the
one, come on look.
This past fall marissa
and I decided to adopt
another puppy.
She loves you. We
named her tosh.
And it's been great, you
know, we love her, it's
been an amazing experience.
Doing pretty good
for her first day.
Jarrett: Doing
really good. Great,
you're doing good?
I'm pretty impressed.
Tj: The outer banks
really isn't the best
place to break in a
puppy on the water.
But I've got reba
and ripple.
They've been doing
this for a while.
I'm hoping tosh takes
from them.
I think she got this.
You a bluefin k*ller?
Daddy's got to get
you a bite first.
All right, I'll get you
a bite. I'll get you a
bite. I'll get you one.
You were born for
this, right?
Tyler: Come on, merm!
It's time to wake up.
Marissa: Tyler, I
have not had sleep.
Tyler: None of us, we're
commercial fishermen.
Sleep deprivation.
Talk about it.
Marissa: Tyler.
Six days makes me cranky.
Tyler: Talk about.
Marissa: Tyler.
Tyler: I haven't had
sleep in six days.
My brother keeps
me out here at sea.
Marissa: Yeah, after
having our asses handed
to us on the ride out.
Tyler: There's gonna
be plenty more [bleep]
rides out here this year.
There's gonna be a
lot more hell rides.
Marissa: I know, but.
Tyler: You know what
you do for them?
You put the beanbag in
front of the refrigerator
and you sleep there.
Marissa: Oh, so then the
freezer door comes and
smacks me in the head.
Tyler: We're late to
the party today
because our steam out was
a little rougher than
expected.
Oh, god. This is
pretty nasty.
Marissa: My head's
bopping off the top bunk.
Tyler: It's gonna be hell.
After catching our first
fish we thought everything
was finally going our way
and just like that,
the tuna gods smack
you in the face.
Merm's mad at me,
the boat's been
flipped upside down,
nick's already on his
way with a fish
and I'm stuck out here
doing housekeeping.
If we don't make it out
to the fishing grounds
we don't have a chance
of making money.
So we can't act like,
we can't act like we
can't not be here.
When you fish with family
there's gonna be times
where you butt heads.
Come on, let's go.
We need our bite.
For us mclaughlins the
only apology that matters
is fish on the deck.
There he is.
Nice mark at 40.
Come on tunas, swipe left.
Come on tuna gods.
Give us one. Just one.
We're on!
Marissa: We're on!
Tyler: Merm, let's go.
Marissa: Oh, man. No
makeup for you.
Tyler: Go to the tuna,
merm. Go to the tuna.
Greg: Apparently
tyler has a fish on.
I'm gonna try and fish
right up to where he is.
That might be the lower
end of where the fish are.
Tyler: Merm, move this rod.
Marissa: Let's get
him captain tyler.
Og bro and sis team.
It's a big one.
Tyler: Definitely a big one.
Marissa: We have a lot
of line out.
This is gonna be
a long fish fight.
Tyler: Get mean, merm.
Still there?
Please don't lose
this one, merm.
[music]
tyler: Still there?
Please don't lose
this one, merm.
He come off?
Marissa: No, he's here.
There's just a [bleep]
ton of line out.
Tyler: He came off.
Marissa: No he's not.
He's here tyler.
He's here.
Tyler: Merm and I
fight because that's
what siblings do.
But we both wanna prove
that we can compete
with these other boats.
Marissa: I don't
think you know how
much line's out.
I can see the white.
Tyler: That's our number
one focus, so we got to
get this fish.
Come on. Team
wheel, baby.
The og brother and
sister team kicking butt.
Marissa: Getting the
job done.
Tyler: Yeah, merm.
Tyler: Down and tight.
Marissa: I need my coat,
tyler.
Tyler: Here, let me on
this thing a little bit.
Marissa: Nice work, ty.
Tyler: Team pinwheel, baby.
It's pinwheel, baby. We're
gonna smoke the fleet.
Here we go. It's game on.
Marissa: No days off.
Team pinwheel.
Tyler: Just don't yell at me
when I take you on these
hellacious boat rides, merm.
There's always a
bent rod at the end
of the rainbow.
Marissa: Right on time.
Tyler: Deep color.
Nice pinwheel. Oh, yeah,
big tuna though.
Marissa: Big tuna.
Tyler: Merm, stand the
harpoon up next to me.
Whoa!
Marissa: What?
Oh my god.
Tyler: Pulled the
hook at the boat.
Marissa: That was
all that was left?
Tyler: Yup.
Marissa: Oh, no.
Tyler: Pulled him off
Greg: I hate when
that happens.
You should've left merm
on the rod. That sucks.
Tyler: I really
should have, merm.
Oh. Set back out.
Marissa: We're here.
Put 'em back out.
There's fish here. We have
so many more chances.
Tyler: That was
our ticket home.
Paul: I think he has
a hard time because of
his sister you know?
It's too much for
him by himself.
You definitely
need a couple guys.
Greg: I don't know what
the deal is, usually
merm's his angler.
Maybe he's under a little
pressure to perform so he's
cranking it for himself.
Marissa: Oh, I need
to get my pliers.
Tyler: Yeah.
Even though we were
just butting heads,
we're mclaughlin's and
merm wants to catch fish
just as badly as I do
and she wants to win.
So we have a lot to prove
but we're willing to do
whatever it takes
to try and do it. All
right, merm. Let's
try and get some.
Marissa: We'll try
harder next time.
Brandan: We catching
fish, buddy. That's
what we doing.
Scotso: What's going
on, guys?
Nick: Not much. We got
another one for you.
Nice fat fish.
Scotso: Yeah, it looks
like it's got some
shape from up here.
Nick: Yeah.
Scotso: How about we get
it up, we'll check it out?
Nick: All right.
Let's do that.
[laughs]
brandan: I got kids
and family.
If I can't catch fish
I can't make money.
You know you catch
fish you make a check.
But when you're
catching big fish,
it don't compare.
You know, it can't get
no better than this.
Cliff: Hey, man what we got?
Scotso: 452 pounds dressed.
Nick: Nice.
Brandan: Yes!
Cliff: All right.
Nick: Take a look at him.
Scotso: See what we got.
Cliff: All right, man.
Nick: To get a good price
per pound this fish needs
to have loads of fat,
good color and a
really clear core.
If we got that, a
fish this size
it could keep us in the
top spot for a long time.
Scotso: All right,
guys. Doesn't have
any fat in it.
Brandan: No fat?
Scotso: Kind of dark
meat. Really red.
Brandan: Come on, man.
Don't talk about my
fish like that.
Scotso: With the shape
I thought it was gonna
look better, but.
Nick: Me too. Let's
look at the core.
Scotso: See what we
got. Core's good.
Nothing wrong with
that. That being said.
I can get you guys
seven bucks a pound.
Nick: All right.
We get you a $27
one tomorrow.
We're never gonna turn
down a paycheck, but
seven dollars a pound.
That's a heartbreaker.
Can't all be diamonds?
Tj: I am making an egg
sandwich for the princess
over on the pinwheel.
Marissa likes to have
what she affectionately
calls an egg mcmerm.
And you got to make sure
the eggs are perfect.
She likes the eggs over
easy and a little runny.
If I mess the eggs up I
might get in trouble, so.
The eggs are gonna
be crucial.
I know merm is bummed
over losing that fish, so
if I can help her
and give her a mcmerm
and keep her happy
and keep her fishing
and catching fish then
that's what I'm gonna do.
Jarrett: Happy
wife, happy life.
Tj: Whoa, whoa, buddy.
You're the engaged one.
There's a mcmerm.
Hey, master captain
merm you on there?
Marissa: I'm here.
Tj: Get ready.
I got a special delivery
coming your way.
Jarrett: Princess pinwheel
we got something for you.
Marissa: Oh.
Tj: That's your
favorite. A nice mcmerm.
Merm and I are
competitors but we want
each other to succeed.
So if I can help her out
with a little moral support,
that's what I'm gonna do.
Marissa: Thank you.
Tj: All right. Good
luck. Catch 'em up.
Marissa: You over
cooked the eggs.
[laughs]
tj: A lot of love
went into that.
Dave: Look at all
these slicks, dude.
Slicks everywhere.
Man, there is so many
fish ripping around
here right now.
Paul: Looks like five
billion tunas out here.
Dave: Yeah, there is.
Look at him tearing
it up right here.
Look right here.
-Oh, man.
Sandro: You don't
really see that at home.
Dave: This fishery is
amazing, I mean, right?
It's just literally
thousands of fish.
The amount of tuna down
here is a fisherman's
dream.
With the level of skill
here on this boat,
there's absolutely no way
we should not be hooking
up every time we are out
here on the water.
Wow, hold on. Hold on.
Paul: Oh! Ow, my arse.
Dave: Damn.
Sandro: Where'd
that one come from?
Paul: Yeah. That was the
tuna call right there.
Dave: And we're marking
them on top of it.
Oh, there's a whole
pile of 'em, 60 to 80.
Sandro: Oh, we're
marking a pack of them.
Come on eat it.
Dave: Here they come.
Paul: They're busting
all around us.
Sandro: Oh, man,
look at all the fish.
Paul: Oh, let's get a bite.
Sandro: We're on!
Paul: We're on, dave.
Sandro: We're on!
Doubled up. We're
doubled up.
Paul: Doubled up.
Sandro: Oh, man.
Dave: Wow.
Sandro: Woo!
Doubled up, baby. We're
tight. Yeah, baby!
Hooked up.
Dave: Doubled up.
Greg: Dot-com comes behind
us and hooks a double.
Unreal.
Paul: Hey, we can't
catch 'em one at a time.
We'll see if we can
catch them.
Sandro: Yeah, we need,
we need at least two.
Dave: Where you at,
sandro? We're crossed.
I can't see if I'm
over you or under you.
Sandro: I'm over you.
Careful. Don't wanna
lose him.
Paul: Yeah. They're
ripping around.
Dave: Keep it tight, paul.
Go forward a little bit
just keep it in the waves.
Sandro: Oh, man. Greg's
going right over him.
Dave: Oh god.
Paul: We're gonna run
into trouble here.
Dave: We're in a bad place
right now because we could
lose both these fish.
Oh, man, greg's
going right over him.
Dave: Oh god.
Paul: And we're gonna
run into trouble here.
Dave: We're in a bad place
right now because we could
lose both of these fish.
We're hooked up to two big
fish, but greg, he's headed
directly for our lines.
If we don't do something
real fast,
we're gonna lose
both these fish.
Greg, turn left they're
stretched way out.
You're gonna come
over me, right?
Sandro: Yeah.
Dave: Thanks.
Oh, man. Craziness, huh?
I think we're okay.
Sandro: We're doubled
up, baby. Double down.
Paul: We can take both
of them and then let
one go, right?
Dave: Yeah. I'm taking
the bigger one.
Hopefully, we get one.
You never know we could
lose both of these fish.
Sandro: Are you
in mono already?
Dave: Huh?
Sandro: You're in the mono?
Dave: Yeah.
This one's coming
right up.
I got the focus fish,
but this fish could take
off. You never know.
Take your time,
sanchi all right?
That's the insurance
policy right there.
I got him coming up.
Color right there.
Color! Swivel!
This one's a keeper. We
could tag the other one.
Paul: Am I okay?
Dave: Just touch forward,
yup. Swivel's on the rod.
Get the harpoon. Ready?
Paul: Go!
Dave: Good shot!
Paul: Ha-ha-ha. Gaff.
Gaff. Nice gaffer, capper.
Dave: Look at the
color on her, huh.
Love the outer banks.
Paul: Oh, yeah.
Dave: Let's tag and
release this one. No way.
Paul: Pulled the hook?
Sandro: Yeah.
Dave: Off huh?
Sandro: Perfect. Perfect.
Dave: We don't have
to tag him.
Sandro: Whatever we
already had hours ago.
We're going home anyways.
Paul: Go ahead. Yup.
Dave: He's not too shabby.
Paul: Oh.
Sandro: That is a north
carolina bluefin.
Paul: Let's measure
him. What do you got?
Sandro: 97.
Paul: 97. It's hot.
Dave: No way. Wow.
It's great feeling to be
steaming in with a fish.
When you see greg who
is an old pro still
waiting on a bite.
And it really goes to
show, we are gonna be
unstoppable.
Good job, guys.
Paul: This is our job,
dude. We did it.
Dave: We did do it.
Paul: This is what we do.
Sandro: Hell, yeah.
Paul: It's all about
the benjamin's, baby.
Dave: What's up, scott?
Scotso: Hey, what's up,
dave?
Dave: One more. 97 inch.
Pretty good fish.
Scotso: Yeah. Let's
get it up, guys.
Dave: All right. Let's
see what we got.
Sandro: Back home you
get days where you mark,
you know, 25, 30 fish.
Like, oh, man,
that's a great day.
We can't wait to
get back out there.
Here it's like, I think
we're marking 250 300
fish at a time.
It's absolutely insane.
It's cool I've never
seen anything like it.
Dave: What do you got for
a dress weight, scott?
Scotso: 365 pounds dressed.
Paul: Nice, that's a
good one.
Dave: Let's check it out.
Scotso: Let's do it.
Dave: I know this isn't the
biggest fish that's come
across this dock today,
but it's what's on the
inside that matters most.
Scotso: All right, guys.
Not bad, not bad at all.
Look at that color, look
at how that spreads apart.
Dave: Yeah. Beautiful.
Let's see the core.
Scotso: See what we got.
Dave: Sweet.
Sandro: Beautiful core.
Dave: That is nice, huh?
Scotso: Yeah. That is
solid right there.
Dave: What are you
thinking?
Scotso: Bottom line.
Dave: Come on, scott.
We need it.
Scotso: I can get you guys,
$16 a pound.
Dave: Okay.
Paul: All right. That's a
good paycheck. Thanks pal.
Scotso: No problem.
Paul: That's a good
paycheck.
Dave: Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Paul: We'll take it.
Scotso: Awesome thanks.
Paul: Get him on ice.
Dave: The dot-com
is heating up.
If other captains didn't
know before they know now,
we're gonna be a threat.
Dot-com will prevail.
Zack: Man, dot-com's
coming out firing
this year.
Daniel: Yankee b*stard.
Zack: We're dead last right
now on the leaderboard.
Getting smoked by the
dot-com in our backyard
right now is just salt
in our wounds.
We got to find some
action. All right,
come on tyler.
Any mark?
Tyler: No.
How about it frenzy?
Seeing any?
Greg: I have not.
Absolutely zero.
Marissa: He has
two mates, right?
Tyler: Two of like
the best mates.
Marissa: Oh, my god
a tuna just jumped.
A tuna just jumped.
A tuna just jumped.
Tyler: Where merm?
Marissa: Right there,
right there, right
there, there was a tuna.
It jumped right
out of the water.
Tyler: You bit, merm.
Greg: Tell her to
identify it first
before you start saying
there he is, there, there,
there, there. She sounds
very excited.
Tyler: She thought she saw
some tunas a couple times
and it was porpoises
so she's really been
studying it and then now.
Marissa: No. That was
a tuna tyler.
Tyler: Oh, man.
Zack: Yeah.
I've seen one too, it just.
Daniel: Yeah, yeah.
Marissa: That was not
a big one, but it was a
big belly right there.
Yup, saw its tail and
its belly.
Tyler: Oh.
Marissa: Bluefin jumped
right out of the water.
Putting socks on.
Tyler: Okay, merm.
Putting socks on?
You're getting
ready or something.
You see one jump
you're getting ready.
She's getting ready.
Greg: Get back there
and jig.
Tyler: She did get
awfully excited though.
That was pretty cool.
Everyone underestimates the
pinwheel because I'm fishing
with my little sister,
but she's a savage and
she's born and bred to
do this.
She's focused on
getting that tuna.
I am desperate to prove
these guys wrong that
we can get it done,
just the two of us.
Marissa: Where's my
lucky pineapple socks?
Tyler: Oh, boy!
Marking friends!
He's got friends.
Marissa: Tuna time.
Hungry, hungry tunas.
Zack: That's what
we're looking for.
Big groups of red
on the screen.
Looking for number two.
Marissa: Let's go.
Zack: Number two
we're looking for you.
Come on, baby give us ours.
Marissa: Big mark.
Zack: There he is.
All right, baby! We're on!
Zack: Woo! Burning it down.
[dog barking]
tight! Got 'em on!
Got 'em on, baby!
Tyler: Nice fish.
Big fish on the line.
Let's get him merm.
We lost him right at
the boat now we got
another one on.
After losing a fish
this morning it's
even more important
that we catch a fish now.
We got no choice but to
put a fish on the deck.
Good. Pinwheel, baby.
Woo!
Zack: Woo! Rasta rocket!
Daniel: Yeah, it's
gonna be a real one.
Zack: We'll take
anything we can get.
Tyler: Get him,
merm! Get him.
Got to get this one.
Daniel: It's way out there.
Zack: You keep tight, daniel.
Marissa: He's still
fighting, that's for sure.
Tyler: You're gaining,
merm. You're gaining.
Marissa: Big heavy fish.
Tyler: Yeah, 30 fathoms.
A hundred feet.
A hundred feet.
Come on, merm.
A hundred feet away.
A hundred feet away.
Marissa: Swivel!
Tyler! Tyler!
He's under the boat,
tyler! He's going
under the boat.
Tyler! Tyler!
He's under the boat,
tyler! He's going
under the boat.
Tyler: Oh, no. Keep
reeling. Keep reeling.
Definitely trying to cut
himself off underneath
the boat for sure.
He's been hooked before.
He's definitely a pro.
Come on, merm.
Marissa: All clear. No!
Tyler: He's a big fish.
They don't get to be
big by being stupid.
Daniel: Spin it now.
Go, go, go!
No! We lost him!
Zack: That boat got
in our line.
Greg: That sucks
you got cut off.
I promise it wasn't
me this time.
Tyler: Do not lose
this one, merm.
Please get this one I
can take a deep breath.
Get this one I can
breathe again, I can be
like whoosh, namaste.
Whoosh!
I just wanna catch
the fish. Oh god, I
can't even watch.
You're in a stalemate, huh?
Marissa: He's a big
boy. I'm just,
-I just don't wanna
lose him.
Tyler: He is big.
Marissa: He doesn't
wanna give up the fight.
Very stressful.
Want to take some turns.
Don't do anything drastic.
[laughs]
tyler: He does not wanna
come up. He's a big fish.
Marissa: Come on, tuna.
Tyler: See him?
Marissa: I see him.
I see him.
I see him. I see him, yay!
We got deep color.
Tyler: Hold on, merm.
Get on the rod.
Marissa: Come on, ty.
Tyler: I got him.
Marissa: Woo!
Tyler: Get the tail rope.
Yeah, merm.
Marissa: This is
what we waited for.
Tyler: Pull, merm!
Yeah, she's ours.
Marissa: Woo!
Tyler: Woo!
Marissa: Yes.
Oh my god. Woo!
Tyler: Woo-hoo!
Marissa: Woo!
Tyler: Team pinwheel
kicking a*s.
We earned this one.
Marissa: Let's just
chill for a second. Oh.
Tyler: Bring him up,
merm. Woo!
Marissa: Look at the
size of this guy.
Tyler: Woo!
Marissa: Wow, mod.
Let's get a measurement
on this bad boy.
Tyler: Woo!
Marissa: Woo!
Nice work, tyler.
This is great.
Tyler: Thanks, sis.
After a really rough
start the mclaughlins
are finding their groove.
I hope the other captains
are ready because
we don't need three
people on the pinwheel.
We just need marissa
and I and we'll take the
rest of the fleet down.
Marissa: Woo!
Tyler: Woo!
Marissa: We're out of here.
Tyler: Sorry I made you
take that horrible boat
ride out this morning,
but I told you it'd be
worth it.
Marissa: It was totally
worth it, tyler.
We have a passenger.
Tyler: Yeah, we do.
Dennis: Was it fun
today out there?
Tyler: Getting to the
grounds was absolute hell.
Dennis: So you had a
horrific ride through
the fishing grounds?
Marissa: Horrific is
an understatement.
Dennis: All right, I'm
freezing up here let's
get your fish off
and see what it looks like.
Tyler: Sounds delicious.
Taking my sister out
in that weather I was
a little bit hesitant,
but it's year two
for her down here.
I'm not holding back
I'm fishing hard.
What are we looking
at for a weight?
Dennis: 404 pounds
dressed, guys.
Tyler: Let's check it out.
Dennis: Really nice dense
fat. Fanning in there.
It's definitely
nice greasy meat.
Tyler: Oh yeah.
Marissa: Whoa.
Dennis: You're gonna
be in good shape if we
get a good core sample.
Tyler: All right.
Let's check it out.
Dennis: Well, you
got a nice core here.
Tyler: That's a good
fish. I like it a lot.
What do you think
you can do for us?
Dennis: Got some fat
and a clear core, so
$13 a pound.
Tyler: Yeah! Thanks, dennis.
Marissa: Yeah.
Tyler: Woo!
Marissa: Thank you, dennis.
Tyler: We're stoked. Later.
Dennis: Thanks for toughing
it out in that weather
and bringing me a fish.
Tyler: That's what
we're here for, dennis.
That's another paycheck
in our pockets.
It's me and merm against the
world and we're putting the
rest of the fleet on notice.
Boom, we're taking it
all the way to the bank.
Nick: I seen tyler leaving
the fish buyer there.
I'm really gunning
for the pinwheel.
Me and tyler sort
of have a history.
I shot at him with my g*n.
Tyler: Fire!
Nick: Ever since then
he's just always
wanted to beat me, so
he's gonna have to go
hard if he wants to beat
the little shell.
Tj: You ready, puppy?
You ready? You ready?
Jarrett: She's got some
good teachers doesn't she?
I taught her everything
I know.
Tj: You got to get
to bed, you ready?
We've been out on the
water with tosh for a
couple of days now.
But we still haven't
found our first bluefin.
So we're setting up for
the troll to get that
sunrise bite.
Come on. [inaudible]
you're in the way.
We're trying to put
the stick out.
Stay here. This puppy's
shot, bro.
Jarrett: You brought
him out right when
we're putting lines out.
Tj: You know, but
she's like fearless.
Jarrett: Of course she is.
She has no idea what the
[bleep] she's doing.
Get inside. Get inside.
Watch out.
It's just daybreak.
We wanna get that
bite before
all these fish go away and
we got to wait till another
six hours from now.
We just got to get
on the mark.
Tj: There's our mark.
Here comes a mark,
jarrett.
Jarrett: Here we go.
This is it.
Tj: Come on, baby.
Let's get a bite.
Jarrett: Any second now.
Here we go! We're on!
Game on, baby!
Ballyhoo bite.
Wow!
Move it.
Tj: Got it?
Jarrett: Yup.
Tj: Got it?
Jarrett: Yup.
Tj: All right. Go, go to
the other side. Go to the
other side. Other side.
Take your time
with him, jarrett.
Jarrett: This thing's
dumping a lot of line.
Got to make something
happen here pretty
soon, tj.
Tj: Hold on. Hold on.
Jarrett: We're
gonna lose the fish.
Come bump it, bump
it. Oh [bleep].
Tj: Gone?
Tj: Got it?
Jarrett: Yup.
Tj: All right, go. Go
to the other side.
Other side, other side.
Take your time
with him, jarrett.
Jarrett: This thing's
dumping a lot of line.
Got to make something
happen here pretty
soon, tj.
Tj: Hold on. Hold on!
Jarrett: We're gonna
lose the fish, tj.
Bump it! Bump it!
Tj: Gone?
Jarrett: All right.
We're looking good.
We're good.
Tj: Just trying to clear
the stick so we don't
get a cluster here.
Jarrett: We're good.
We're good.
Wow, they pile onto
these ballyhoo.
Whoa! Whoa!
Tj: We got a rigger bite
here. 81 and 84.
Tyler: Pretty work.
Way to go.
Jarrett: We're on,
baby! Yeah!
Tj: Bluefin season.
Jarrett: Feels like
a big fish.
Definitely a big
hit off the bite.
Had us halfway down on
the dacron. Almost
more than half the
spool. We're gaining
on him though.
There we go. On the mono.
Tj: Nice. Back to the mono.
Waiting for jarrett
to tell me he sees
the swivel.
Wait for color.
Hopefully I get a dart
in him and the pelicans
will be flying west.
Jarrett: He's already
starting to pinwheel
a little bit.
Get ready, he's coming up.
Tj: Swivel.
Jarrett: I see him. Nice.
Get the harpoon.
You see, there we go.
Blast him.
-Nice!
Tj: Get a tail gaff,
jarrett! Tail gaff!
Jarrett: Got him?
Tj: Get the rope.
Get the rope.
Jarrett: I got him. Yeah!
Tj: Good job, buddy.
Tj and jarrett: Woo!
Tj: The pelicans are
flying west, baby. Woo!
Jarrett: Be home
by lunch, baby.
Tj: Yeah, when you're
good, get him up.
Jarrett: Good.
All right.
Tj: Obx, baby.
Let's measure him up
and see what we got.
Jarrett: All right.
How long is he?
Tj: 91.
Jarrett: 91.
buddy. Nice work.
Tj: This is tosh's
first bluefin.
If we keep this up,
she's gonna be a bonafide
bluefin dog in no time.
We are headed west,
baby. Woo!
Pa-pow! Good feeling.
That's what it's all
about, baby, outer
banks bluefin.
Back with another
one, buddy.
Dennis: Looks like a
nice fish.
Tj: Yeah, I mean, I
know you want to get
off the boat I know.
Want to get 'em up there?
Dennis: Let's do it.
Daylight's burning.
Tj: All right. Look
at that thing.
Dennis: Look at the
shape. He's barreled out.
Tj: What do we got, den?
Dennis: 325 pounds
dressed, tj.
Tj: Beauty, man.
Hopefully he's got the
good stuff inside.
Dennis: Let's check it out.
Tj: All right, bud.
What happened to your eye?
Dennis: A hook pulled out
while I was packing a
tuna and it bam hit me
in the eye.
Tj: Whoa.
Dennis: You can
see nice dense fat.
The meat is nice and
greasy.
Tj: It's got that nice
color red like your
eyeball too.
Dennis: Let's see what
the core looks like.
Tj: Okay. Perfect.
-Nice core.
Dennis: Very nice.
Tj: Beautiful, translucent.
Dennis: Yup. I like this one
tj: So everything you see,
what are you thinking?
Dennis: $15 a pound.
Tj: Hey now.
-Thanks dennis.
Dennis: Pretty good.
Stay safe, guys.
Tj: With a paycheck like
that, merm might have a nice
surprise coming her way.
A lobster dinner or
hey, maybe obedience
classes for tosh. Hey!
Paul: Rainbow. Look at that.
Dave: Yup. Pot of gold.
Tyler: What do you
think I'll find at the
end of the rainbow?
Nick: The little shell
with a tuna on deck.
[laughs]
we've had a great start
this season, but we need
to keep this roll going
and that means we need a
bite to stay in the lead,
and I want it bad.
No big deal.
We just got to catch
one before it gets dark.
We still got time.
Bobby: Come on, boys.
Let's find these suckers.
Dave: There they are.
Here's a stack. Come
on, come on,
come on, come on.
Coming up.
Woo. Come on, let's get a
bite and get it done.
Nick: Holy [bleep],
here we go, boys.
Jig it, jig it.
Cliff: Jig it, brandan.
That's a good mark.
Nick: Hell of a mark.
Good mark.
Come on, get 'em hopping.
Get 'em hopping.
Bobby: There's another
herd. Another herd.
Drew: Get 'em up,
bobby. Get 'em up.
Bobby: Another herd. I'm
[bleep] trying, man.
[laughs]
tyler: We're
marking. Come on.
Nick: Come on, baby.
Paul: It's our turn, baby.
Nick: I can smell 'em.
Tyler: Come on.
We're on!
Merm!
Marissa: Yup, I'm here.
Tyler: Clear the
planted rods. Clear
the planted rods.
Marissa: Okay.
Tyler: Reel, reel, reel!
Marissa: Oh it's a big one.
He's going out. Can
I put my jacket on?
Tyler: Yeah, put
your jacket on.
If we can catch this fish
it will be our second
fish in two days.
We got to take advantage of
this opportunity to try and
catch up on the leaderboard.
It's even more important
that we catch a fish now
so we can get in before
the 12:00 cut off.
All right. Come on, merm.
Marissa: Sunset bite.
Tyler: Thank god.
We got 'em on here.
Dave: Wow.
Nick: We suck.
Tyler: Got a big fish
on the line here in
big weather.
A lot of things can go
wrong. We don't want any
of them to go wrong.
We don't wanna pull any
hooks. We don't want
lines to break.
Big wave! Big wave, merm!
Whoa! Merm, hold on!
Wave! Big wave, merm!
Whoa, merm! Hold on.
Marissa: Salt water.
Tyler: I love it.
Come on, merm.
Let's do what we do best,
catch tunas, kick butt.
Ooh.
Marissa: All the other
boats, they have two
or three mates
and it's just my brother
and I out here in really
bad conditions
getting the job done.
Tyler: Get some,
merm. Let's do it.
Reel, reel, reel,
reel. Keep reeling.
We're getting close.
He's 200 feet behind
the back of the boat.
We got to get him.
The pressure's on. This
is the all-star game.
Get the long gaff.
Nice fish here. Nice
fish on the line.
Definitely a big tuna.
There he is. He's on top.
Tail wrap.
Touch it in reverse.
Touch it in reverse.
Straighten out your wheel.
Woo.
Marissa: Yeah, ty.
You got this, ty.
So close.
Tyler: Swivel.
Marissa: Swivel.
He's coming up.
Tyler: Get ready. On the
rod, merm. Come here.
Marissa: I'm here. I'm
here. I see color.
Get him.
Get him, woo!
Tyler: Tail gaff.
Marissa: Right behind you.
Right behind you.
Tyler: Tail gaff.
Marissa: Right behind
you. Right behind you.
Tyler: I got him!
Come here!
Woo!
Pull that thing tight.
Marissa: Woo! Big tuna!
Tyler: Number three.
Woo! Woo! Yes!
Way to go, sis!
We're catching tunas.
I almost had a
heart attack.
We just got two fish in
two days, all those guys
that were doubting us
aren't doing it anymore.
We got him. We got him.
Greg: Hey, nick.
That's it.
Looks like he's tied
you. Got the tail
rope on him.
Nick: That's one person
we don't wanna lose
to is the pinwheel.
Can't lose to the
pinwheel.
Tyler: Get out the boom,
merm. We got him.
Wow. Freaking huge one.
Marissa: Big bluefin tuna.
Tyler: Woo-hoo! Woo!
Marissa: This is a big one.
Tyler: This is a big,
big boy. Oh boy.
Marissa: Woo. He's so
big he looks like he's
gonna explode.
Tyler: He's a nice fish.
Marissa: 96.
Tyler: Woo! Beautiful
tuna. Yeah, merm.
Marissa: Beautiful fish.
Tyler: Woo.
Nick got c*ck with
his lead. Now game on.
Marissa: Coming in hot.
[laughs]
mary: Looks like a
big lump in that bag.
Tyler: Happy to have
this one and stay in
the competition.
Marissa: Pretty
rough conditions.
Tyler: She was spitting
out salt water.
Mary: Well, it looks
like it paid off.
Let's check him out.
Tyler: Come on down, bro.
It's tough competition,
but merm really is
kicking butt.
There's nothing that
she can't do that a
guy could do.
She's k*lling it. What
are we looking at, mary?
Mary: 439 pounds dressed.
Tyler: Wow.
That's a nice lamb.
Let's check it out.
This is what it
all comes down to.
If this fish is good
quality we could jump to
the top of the leaderboard
and put all the other
captains on notice.
What up? What up?
Mary: Great color.
Bright red color.
Definitely see some
fat in here.
Let's check the core out
and see if it's clear.
Tyler: Oh. Perfect. Nice.
Mary: It looks good.
Clear, nice red color.
Tyler: No rainbows.
Mary: It's a good one.
Worth getting salt in
your mouth because you
did bring in a nice fish.
Tyler: Sweet. Well, what
is this fish worth?
Mary: I'm gonna say
$16 a pound.
Tyler: We're moving
up in the world.
All right. Perfect.
Thank you so much.
Mary: Yup. I like it.
You're welcome.
Thanks, merm.
Marissa: Thank you mary.
Tyler: Feel blessed the
tuna gods are shining
down on us again.
We got some momentum,
we just got to keep
it happening.
It's gonna be a
battle, but we're
definitely in the mix.
Marissa: Pinwheel
family trip.
Tyler: Pinwheel
family trip.
Narrator: Pinwheel's two
fish haul catapults them
to the top spot
with a $1600 lead
over closest competitors
fv-tuna.Com and hot tuna.
Little shell's little
paycheck keeps the former
frontrunner afloat
in the middle of the pack.
But fishin' frenzy plummets
from second to fifth place.
Marissa: I'm gonna
make some waffles.
Tyler: Yeah, smells
good down there merm.
Marissa: Yeah!
Tyler: Thanks merm
I'm going for it.
Oh, this [bleep]'s
hella b*mb.
Wow, merm is on fire
with the waffle maker
this morning. Oh my.
Zack: We're jealous
over here.
Tyler: You guys want her
to make you some waffles?
You guys could use some
waffles [inaudible].
I mean you could throw
'em like a frisbee.
Tyler: All right.
Now. We're talking.
We'll have to bring
blueberries next time.
Nick: Why would you
[bleep] up a waffle
with a blueberry?
Cliff: I love blueberries.
Nick: Yeah, I love
blueberries too, but not
on my [bleep] waffles.
Tyler: Merm, I was a lot
hungrier than I thought.
That was some good
action. Good action.
You're the waffle
queen out here.
Marissa: If I knew what
a hit this would've been
I would've gotten a
bigger waffle maker.
