03x10 - Cataclysm in Kona

[bunniefuu]

[phil] all that work
for all those years

To make today happen.

So you can either pull it off
or blow it up.

We'll see.

[josh] following in
my old man's footsteps

Is a trial by fire.

This summer, it's
time for new techniques.

Green-stick fishing
here we come.

Oh!

[josh] there are things
about my dad that
I never expected.

If he was down there,
I'll bet he was fishing.

[josh] probably
the gulf of mexico.

This thing was massive.

And now...

That hurricane, it's gonna
have 132 mile an hour gusts.

...Right back home.

What do you think about
maybe us going to hawaii?

You need the same fish
that they got over there.

[man] welcome back to kona.

[josh] I'm trying to turn
his dream into an empire.

Ooh, we got a double.

[cheering]

[josh] but more important,

It brought my brother shane
back into my life.

It's coming up.
I got color, josh.

Good job, bro.

[josh] we've got a week
to get it done,

And get back to dutch
for crab season.

You haven't fished
that matt o'brien order
yet, brother.

[josh] time to get to work.

Yeah, man.

All right, so, where's
the plan of attack?

We've got fish for louisiana
to fulfil.

Yeah, we've got fish
for hawaii to fulfil.

Hurricane ida drove us
out of the gulf

Before we could
finish our order.

To make good,

I promised matt 2,000 pounds
of whitefish mahi

By week's end.

And after that, the 1,800
that jeff still needs
for kona brew.

We've got one hell
of a week.

Well, I know you guys
have had your hands full

Over in louisiana
with ida,

But we got some things
going on here too.

[man on tv] breaking news
from the big island

Where magma is now
moving at kilauea,

And we confirmed
moments ago

That the volcano
is erupting once again.

The activity is confined
to the crater tonight,

But the usgs cautions

That the opening phases
of eruptions are "dynamic
and uncertain."

[jeff] last time that
the lava flow came down,

A lot of sulphur came
into the water.

The water temperatures
went through the roof.

Um, you know, there
is a lot of stories

Of fish, you know,
floating dead, fish leaving.

Can you imagine a lot of guys
that fish out of the hilo side

All those fishermen are
gonna come

From the east side
over to kona.

If you think kona's
crowded now, just wait.

Mother nature's like
a pissed-off dog right now.

We're the mailman.
Thinks it's chasing us.

We just need
to get these orders in

Even quicker now.

[jeff] I think we need
to split up.

I don't think we can stay
close and hold hands,

And put all of our eggs
in one basket.

[josh] right, well,
let's get to it.

Yeah, babe, let's get 'em!

Yeah, baby.

[jeff] all right, buddy,
I'm thinking we should go out

A little farther out here
this time.

Like, get away
from the crowds.

It's nice to have the boat
back in the water.

I don't wanna run
into the same problem,

- The meat has run away.
- Yeah, right.

Yeah, jeff's fishing south
right now.

We're fishing the north
on the outskirts,.

And we'll see how it goes.

You made enough money yet
to buy a shirt with sleeves?

- No.
- No?

We haven't finished that
matt o'brien order yet,
brother.

[josh] if we want any chanc
of going to the gulf

To open up
the second arm,

We have to deliver back
what we promised.

And the kona brew contract,

That will be the dream we
set out to accomplish
in hawaii.

We got splashes up there,
josh, see those?

Oh, yeah. Good,
better get up on that.

Looking a little deep
right now,

But maybe we could go over
to get enough drum up.

[casey] the lava flow
from kilauea
is over on the hilo side,

Which means even more
fishermen here in kona.

So, we're gonna start out
from the 1,000-fathom line

But far enough away
from the buoys,

So we've got
some room to work.

We originally left because
this place was so crowded.

Kona's just got
really overcrowded.

No, ooh, he
is freaking out.

[josh] it's good to see
some life over here.

Looks like it could be
marking something on top here,

At about 10 fathoms.

Here fish, fish, fishy.

[reel spinning]

- Hey, we got something
going on right there.
- Let's go.

[reel spinning]

The big *bleep*.

Rake it in, buddy.

Yeah, here we go!

[reel spinning]

Holy *bleep*. You got
a double goin'.

Yeah.

We got two marlin
on right now.

Ooh, we got a double.

- Take this from me, would ya?
- You got it, brother.

- Have you got it?
- There's nothing on top.

Look at him, he's jumping up
way back there.

[laughing]

Wow! Welcome back
to kona.

- Oh, he's fighting hard.
- Do not let go of that rod.

Just got some power.

Josh's experience
with 10 marlins,

Do we have shane
coming in? Greenhorn, shane.

Getting the fish up first.

Oh, we're getting close.

Mine is coming up.
I got color, josh.

[josh] oh, come on!

Mine's gonna be bigger.

Oh, doody,
it's popped off.

- Did you lose it?
- Yeah, man.

*bleep* damn it.

Hopefully we get
the other one.

It's going under
the boat, dude.

If it goes back by the motor,
you gotta let me know.

[indistinct]

I see it, I see blue.

Back it down,
back it down here. *bleep*

*bleep* we lost both
of them.

- Yep.
- Damn it!

It's bit yours?

Yeah, his popped
the hook out.

That was a beautiful fish.

- 150.
- That would have helped out
with the hawaii order.

Damn, man.

*bleep*

[josh] we went from having
a double marlin on,

But jack squiddly.

From the penthouse
to the outhouse.

[gulls squawking]

[jeff] south point
right there.

That's the most southern tip
of the us,

And it's one
of the windiest too.

[john] it is a little bit.

[jeff] so, john, this is
the type of situation

Where, you know,
I really need you,

Especially with your
experience of big water.

It's blowing over 30.

The wind squalls have
followed me.

A solid six to eight,
maybe some 10 footers.

Exactly, that hurt.

That was a gnarly one.

- [john] that was a hard hit.
- That was a *bleep* battle.

[john] that was a battle.

- That wave was the size
of my *bleep* boat.
- Yeah, it was.

[jeff] south point is one
of the most treacherous
parts of the big island.

The south-east winds
hug the land

And create some
of the biggest swells
that hawaii has.

Even the veterans don't
like to go down there
and take a beating.

But at this point, for us,
we don't have a choice.

I'll drive and you hook.

All right, you just tell me
what to do.

Something's following
my lines here.

Okay, go portside,
go portside,

Don't go starboard,
go port.

Steer away
from the buoy.

We get up there,
then we'll drop back down

[reel spins]

- Okay, we're on. Slow down,
slow down.
- Okay.

Turn us down.
Turn us down sea.

Around the fish?

Yeah, turn us down.

- Sorry, starboard,
starboard, my bad.
- Okay.

Stay over here.
Stay right here.
Don't move, don't move.

You push right here.

Look at that fish.
Beautiful.

Beautiful fish.

What have we got
to do?

Stay hard over like this
and just keep going on

- Just like this.
- Okay, gotcha.

This guy's *bleep* with me.
Hold on!

Ah, we lost him.

*bleep*

- Go back up this way
a little bit.
- Okay.

[reel spinning]

- Oh, I hooked him again.
- Nice.

Down sea, go down sea,
go down sea.

*bleep*

[groans]

Go easy on the throttle.

Okay. Which way you
want me to go?

-Around this way?
-You gotta keep...
It's all good.

[jeff] older mahis like
to travel alone.

Younger mahis like to trave
in piles up to 50 big fish.

This is exactly the type
of scenario we need.

Put a lot of weight
on the boat really quick.

Okay, turn us down
starboard.

- Port?
- Up, up.

Portside, portside,
sorry.

Give it a little bit
of throttle.

[grunts]

Perfect, nice.

Big one.

Want me to come back
downhill.

- Down portside.
- Comin' around.

Just like that, johnny,
perfect.

Go ahead and crack
a starboard engine in reverse.

Starboard engine reverse.

Ready? Going for the catch.

Yeah, baby, look at
that thing! *bleep*

- Got one in the bucket, man.
- Whoo-hoo, yeah!

We'll just pick 'em off
one by one

If we gotta stay here
all day.

Look, here they all come.
Right here.

They're all big
mahi-mahis, john.

- Have you got any hooked?
- We're on.

Beautiful *bleep*, man.

[reel spinning]

We got two on, john.

Why don't I reel
this one in right here?

- I'm astern, you gaff it.
- Perfect. It's a nice one.

Right to me.

Yep, I got you.

- Whoo, got him, buddy.
- Thanks, johnny.

Poetry in motion
here, baby.

[jeff] I think that wind's
gonna come back on us.

We're away down here.

No one in their right mind
would come down here
it's so rough.

We just found a pile
of fish, though, down here.

[john] the waves seems
to be bigger than the boat.

No, I mean... [indistinct] go.

[engine churning]

If I push you out
of the way like that,

- It's for a reason.
- Yeah, exactly.

[john groans]

[jeff] this is the type
of stuff

That's really, really hard
on my boat.

Ow, that was
a gnarly one.

*bleep* lift the whole
boat up, dude.

Solid 12-foot waves
on a little boat

You get your a*s kicked
pretty hard.

It's not like we're on
a 130-foot crabber.

Sometimes you've just
gotta fish through it.

Like a old friend of mine
used to say...

[phil] I used to sit around
listen to the weather,

And get all worried
about it and everything,

Then I gave all that up.

We've gotta be here.
We got a job to do.

Let's go do it.

*bleep* hang on.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

- Yeah, man, we gotta go.
- Yeah, man, I'm comin'.

- Got him?
- Got him. We're on.

- [reel spinning]
- nice, nice.

-Oh, yeah, look...
-It's a big *bleep* fish.
Right there.

[jeff] that's the one we want.
That's like a 45, 50 pounder.

- Wow.
- This is the male.

If we lose this guy
and he breaks off,

The whole pile follows.

That's why this is a very
important mahi right here.

[john] he don't wanna
come in. *bleep*

Yeah, that's a *bleep*
bad-assed fish.

- That's gonna put a dent
in the old kona order.
- *bleep* yeah!

You gotta go into the weather.
That's just how it is.

[jeff] you know,
this is a gamble
that we gotta take,

And right now,
it's paid off.

You kicked
some *bleep* a*s.

Does it usually smell
like fuel back here?

- Like gasoline?
- Yeah, like, yeah, gasoline.

- Do you smell gas?
- Yeah.

Like, it's really bad
in here.

There's fuel in this box.

- Um...
- That's fuel.

That's not good,
my friend.

Oh, *bleep*, dude,
I got it up here too, man.

- That's *bleep* gas.
- That's fuel.

Dude, I smell it so bad.
It's so bad in here, man.

Yeah, it's really bad.

Look at this.
It cracked the tank.

We must have done it
in the back

When we were *bleep* going
over those waves.

We've gotta get in
right now.

- That's fuel.
- [john] that's not good,
my friend.

[jeff] dude, I've got it
up here too, man.

[john] we cracked
the tank.

[jeff] we must have done it
in the back

When we were *bleep*
going over those waves.

Okay, we gotta get in
right now.

Yeah, you right.

[jeff] I first bought
this boat in 2014.

It's fed my family.
It's given me a career,

But I might have just
pushed it too far.

I'm gonna give josh a call.

[phone ringing]

- Yo, what's up, brother?
- Hey, josh.

How's it going
over there, man?

Had a little bit
of a rough day.

Had a double strike
of marlin.

They both broke off.

What's going on
with you?

Uh, things have
been better.

We got some fish, you know,
we did good on that.

But we kinda got in some
weather, took a couple
of good slams,

And, um, I cracked
my primary fuel tank.

There's no way,
shape or form

That this boat's gonna be able
to complete this order.

Ah, man.

- What's wrong?
- His boat's dead.

We got the white fish
part of the order

But we now have
to figure something out.

All right, brother.

I'll talk to you tonight
when we get in.

[josh] 3,200 pounds
in four days,

That's a tough ask
with two boats.

With one, it's damn
near impossible.

So, jeff, how bad is it?
How bad does it look?

It's bad. It's got a lot
of fuel in my hull.

I don't even know
how much is there.

The stringers are saturated.

The tanks, I think,
are just...

The tanks are done.

*bleep*

We need another boat.

You know, the kuleana's
good to go.

Nah, can't have five guys
on one boat.

[josh] no, we've gotta see
if we can fulfil these
two orders, man.

[john] hey, eddy, how's
it going man?

What's up, johnny?

We're on the big island again.

I was just wondering if you
knew anybody over here

That might be able
to help us out?

You know,
we're down a boat.

How about that little boat
you guys had?

Uh, the motor's out
on that thing right now,

And we don't know when
we can even get a new one.

- It's hard time stuff.
- What's up, john?

I just got off the phone
with eddy.

He's been with us
for 30 years,

You know,
on the time bandit.

He's got family
on the hilo side,
um, name's rice.

He says he's got a boat
he isn't fishing full.

And if we need help, we
should probably call him up.

- Is it oskie rice?
- Okie rice, yeah.

- You know him?
- Everybody knows him.

The rice family has
a reputation, like,

They're world-class
fishermen.

I don't know a lot
about his operation,

I just hear the stories
of how much fish he catches.

He's willing
to meet with us.

That's a big break.

Well, it's definitely
worth a trip over there.

Yeah, good find.

- So this is where eddy
said oskie would be?
- Yeah.

Well I hope that this dude
can help us out

Because having
a boat down,

We've got a lot
to catch up on.

Yeah, they got
a slammer right here.

There he is.

Oskie, heard a lot
about you.

- How you, john?
- Good to meet you, man.

- This is jeff and josh.
- Thanks for having us over.

[john] we got ourselves
in a predicament.

[josh] yeah, we just kinda
got in a real tight spot
right now.

So, I heard
your boat broke.

Yeah, it's so bad
being the weather, you know.

I was hanging on
for dear life, man,

That was
a white-knuckle ride.

I mean, we're dropping
off 14 footers, just bam!

We just had a couple
real bad ones, you know,

- My boat's down for a while.
- Okay.

Yeah, we were fishing
down in louisiana.

Got chased out
by the hurricane.

So, we had quite a bit
of an order left there,

And jeff's got us
kona brew orders.

So, I mean,
there's a lot of fish
needs to be caught.

Another problem is that
damn volcano just woke up.

[oskie] the lava
can go both ways.

I've had great fishing
because of it.

A couple
of years ago,

It was going into the ocean
full speed.

It heated up the water.

I took the risk
and went through it,

And when I got
to the other side
where the water was blue,

The fish were stacked up
for three months.

- Really?
- It was the easiest fishin'
I've ever done.

- Really? So, it helps?
- Yeah.

It helped me big time.

It got me through
that year.

It was a hard year
on land.

I watched families
be devastated by the volcano.

I felt so privileged

That I could still take
a positive out of something

That was happening on land
that was negative.

If you have a plan...

If there's any way
you'd involve us...

[groans] thing is,
for years I fished alone.

Did my own thing.

Stayed out
of everybody's way,

And hoped that everybody
would stay out of my way.

It could be really beneficial
though, you know.

We get a pretty good price
for our fish.

I'm trying to create
this market over here.

Let us work together
on this.

Get these orders done.

I'm only gonna take one,
one of you guys. That's it.

With one guy, we can
make it happen out here.

- I'll stay.
- Okay.

You stay here
with oskie.

You guys
can fish this side.

- We'll get the other side
of the island.
- That sounds good.

A journey begins.
Let's do it.

[john] we've got
two boats now,

So, jeff and oskie
are gonna k*ll it,

And we just gotta sharpen
our game up over here

On this side of the island.

We've just gotta figure out
these crowded grounds.

I don't know what
we gonna get.

Oskie gives us
the second boat,

Which puts us back
in business.

But with so much
to catch,

We can't stay
on the outskirts of kona.

No matter how many boats
are out there,

We gotta get the pile

And figure out how
to out fish the competition.

[john] we're gonna
have to just come up
with a trick, man.

Get these fish, lure them
from other boats.

You know, like my dog, jack.

He'll do anything
for bacon.

He'll walk off a cliff
for some bacon,

So, we've gotta figure out
some kinda super-bait
or somethin'.

We need to use something
that's kinda like
a super bait.

- A green stick.
- A green stick?

Yeah, it's this giant stick
they mount on the boat.

It's a 20-foot long pole.
It's got a bunch of lures.

Fish can't resist it.

That's like a 20-foot piece
of bacon.

All right. Let's give
casey a call.

[phone ringing]

Y'all, what's up,
buddy?

Hey, man, what are your
thoughts on the green stick?

It's not a bad idea.
I'd really like
to do it again.

It's just, uh,
we gotta get the right boat.

Can you put one
on the kuleana?

On the kuleana?

By the time we get mounts
built, man,

I mean, we'll be late
for the order.

So, it's almost impossible
this late in the game.

What about nainoa's
boat?

Nainoa's boat's
way too small.

You know, but nainoa's dad
has a boat called the nainoa

His dad's boat's
a lot bigger,

And it's actually got
a stick mount on it already,
I believe.

Can you get them
to go fishing with us?

Uh, I'm gonna
go call nainoa

And see if I can
make something happen.

Cool, man. We'll see you
when we get back from hilo.

Right.

[gulls squawking]

[motor puttering]

Obviously, the lava
just kind of opened up
in halema'uma'u crater.

All that lava
is under the ocean.

It's in a big lava soup
underneath.

It is gonna do things
to the ocean,

Where it is gonna
heat it up.

We can see water
temperatures

That we've never seen.

We've got three days left
to catch what we need
for kona brew,

And for louisiana.

With kilauea erupting,

It makes fishing
on the east side a gamble.

[jeff] but sometimes that
undersea lava

Can set the fishing off.

Loihi seamount is done.

It's gonna be
the next island.

It's active. It's an active
volcano underwater.

Water temperatures
change here,

And hopefully
the currents are right,

And we should have
something around.

Sounds good. Start looking
for bird piles.

When magma gets released
on the ocean floor,

It super-heats
the water.

It changes the acidity.

It makes the area
unfishable.

But just 30 miles away,

It can warm up the water
to attract plankton,

And also small fish
that ahi love.

[jeff] if you see
some birds

Kind of spread out
a little bit,

Not maybe as many birds
as you like to see,

But you still see some
flying around.

So, we'll just gonna try stay
with these guys while we can

And hopefully they got
some fish in them.

- First one's hard to catch.
- Yes it is.

[oskie] we're marking
some fish here.

It *bleep* ran.

[reels spinning]

[gulls squawking]

Just like that,
we're on.

They're on. Got 'em.

- Yes! Doubled up.
- Yes, sir.

- Gotcha.
- We got the other one.

Oskie's firing. Now,
we just hooked a double, so...

This is the dream scenario,
right here.

Here you go, jeff,
right here.

I'm not gonna let
this guy go.

- Need you on the other one.
- Yeah.

[groans]

Nice fish.

This is the type of fish,
these 60, 70, 80 pounders,

You make weight
real fast.

Got him.

- *bleep* got it, man, double.
- Yes, sir.

Getting a double is nice.

Yep.

What's really good
about having a partner

Is, right now,
I'm taking care of the fish.

Gutting, gilling 'em, getting
'em ready. Bleeding 'em.

He's getting us back
into position
to stack all of 'em.

He's marking them.
We're back in the birds.

We throw baits out.

That's how you get
it back on fish.

That's how you be
productive

And that's how
you work as a team.

[gulls squawking]

Straight up...

[john] I have a good feelin
about today.

And, uh, I'll figure out
this green stick

Once they start doing it.

I can't wait to see.

[josh] while jeff
and oskie are fishing

Near the volcano
on hilo side,

We have a plan to deal
with packed grounds
here in kona.

Look at all these boats
out here?

Real crowded.

You've got a chance
if you've got a line
in the water.

Oh, well, we may
have a chance.

[josh] we cut a deal
with benda,

Hooked up our green stick
to nainoa's boat.

The idea is to use
the sticks dangling squids

To lure the school away
from the crowded buoys.

We've got a lot of fish
out here to catch, man.

Hopefully, this will work out
for both of you.

Yeah, if we can lure the fish
away from the crowds,

We could free 'em up
for josh and casey
to catch a few too.

We need fish.
We need it now.

We should hit
something today.

Crab season starts
in just a couple of days.

So, we can all work together
to get both these orders done.

[gulls squawking]

You gotta put the foot float
in the water.

- I'm gonna throw the bird in.
- Okay.

Bird going over.

We've got this rig out.

We got a teaser
way in the back.

It's called a bird.

What it does, is it makes
a big commotion.

It looks like
a big fish trying
to eat all these squids.

And we're bouncing
the squids like this.

It's making it look like
they're running away from it.

And the tunas,
once we get over 'em,

They see this commotion
going on...

...And they look

And they see the squids
jumping out of the water.

Then he's, like,
"oh, wow, free meal."

He comes right in,
jumps right out,

- And, boom, nails it.
- [josh] I gotcha.

Ready over here.

All right, well, we'll just
follow by you

And see if you can't pull
some of these fish

Out of this pile
of boats.

Okay, buddy.

Let's get to work.

Let's do it.
We got this.

All right. Game on.
Time is tickin'.

Well, we're coming
up the school right now.

We're gonna be the first boat
with a green stick.

That gives us a little bit
of a edge.

Yeah, man. You can tell
we're getting close.

Um, a lot of boats.

Getting crowded
in this area.

So, we'll drag 'em away
a little bit,

And then make
our move.

Once we make our move,
if we're marking high,

- Get ready.
- Nice.

Right now, the nainoa's
got the green stick

Up over here
with johnny.

They're dangling the squids
on the water,

And we're using that
to pull the fish away

From the crowd here
a little bit.

Hopefully, they'll stick
with us.

We've got a couple
of live baits right
off the stern

And if we can position
ourselves right,

When the fish come up
to eat on the surface,

Whoosh, maybe we'll get
a double, if we're lucky.

Where the *bleep*
are the fish?

[line running]

Wow!

Oh! We got 'em on!

We're on! We're on!

That's a nice one.

Ah, we have
some big splashes.

Something's got a hold
of this bird.

Broke! Broke the line off.

Ah, *bleep*, man,
the mainline just broke.

We broke it.
We gotta go get the bird.

[john] the bird's got
the fish attached.

Get over and do it
as quick as you can!

Don't lose that bird!

Pull. Pull the line up.

We broke it.
We gotta go get the bird.

The bird's got
the fish attached.

Get over and do it as quick
as you can.

Don't lose that bird.
Go on!

[john] whatever's on
the other end,

Is big enough to break
the line on the green stick

We have to get this fish.

Where is it?
Which side?

- Starboard.
- Coming up.

We're almost there.
Get ready.

Yeah, I'm ready, ready.

All right, here we go.

I can see colors.

Come and grab it.
I've gotta put my gloves on.

Watch these lines,
we've gotta be careful.

Be careful. Go, go, go.

All hell broke loose.

*bleep* and elbows.

The line that was attached
to the big green stick snapped

So, now we're pulling it
from the bird

Towards the fish.

-Watch your feet.
Get off the line.
-Yeah, yeah.

You've got to be real careful
because we've got

All this stretched out
on the floor right here.

- If these things run...
- Oh, yeah.

...And a hook catches you,
you're going in with it.

That's exactly like
being caught in a bind
on a crab boat.

That'll cut your fingers off.
Cut your leg.

You know, you get
in the water,

That fish will
drown you. Quick.

You'll have a hook in ya,
you'll be bleedin',

Sharks be comin',
you'll be drowning.

Damn. Damn it.

- We've got color.
- It's a big one, man.

Bryan, that's a nice one
down there, look at that.

- ...Out there.
- Looks like about 150.

Okay, coming up, coming up,
right there. Coming up.

I'm not letting go.

- Got it?
- Second gaff.

Ready?

One, two.

- Yeah.
- Lug it up, baby.

Wow.

That's massive.

That's a big fish.

Looks like I got
green sticks working
a little bit there, josh.

- Just drumming him up.
- Yes, sir.

I think it working, dude.
Yeah, they're jumping.

I think it's, like, 141, 150.

He looks bigger than that
to me.

Got him. Got him, bro.

He had a *bleep*
stuck at him.

Got him the hard way.

Got him backwards.

The green sick definitely
has the school's attention.

Now, if casey and I are
start hooking him too,

We're going to fill
these boxes pretty fast.

See what we can do.
Starting to really mark
some stuff here.

So, I'm hoping that
we're gonna get some.

Got another vein out here.

Nice. It's been a really,
really productive day
out here.

Um, you know, oskie came
right off.

He got us on the birds.

Found the fish.

We still gotta get the order,
but we're on a good track.

Hopefully, you got
a sign of one big one.

It's all we need.

Oh, nice.

That's a nice one.



Beautiful fish.
This is the size of fish
we need

To fill this order.

We're on.

Oh, we got a big shark
by the boat.

See that shark right here?

That's not good.

This is exactly what
you don't want right here.

Eight to 10 foot blue shark
right behind the boat.

Oskie's fighting it right now.

Got a big fish on,
I don't want this guy
chasing our fish.

He's right here on the side.

Right, keep this guy

Right here on the surface,
so that we don't lose

A nice fish to the shark.

Every fish that we catch,
we gut and gill.

We take out the heart,
the intestines, the organs.

Right now,
those bits are our lifeline.

Oh, you b*stard.

Oh, there he is. There he is.

If he gets *bleep* near me.

Fishing a place where
there's a lot of tuna

You're still gonna run into
a lot of sharks.

Sharks will eat anything
in front of them
that smells good.

Tuna hearts, opelu,

Even a skipjack we were
saving for marlin bait.

Anything that keep the shark
away from our rod.

That's good.

Okay.

Nice.

Yeah.

We got 'em.

We're not the only ones
out here trying to catch fish.

So, hopefully, these guys
will leave us alone

And we can get back
on the fish, but, you know,

We've got some nice pieces,
but we got to maybe catch
a few more

And I think
we'll be right there.

Right now, we got the stick
trying to pull out the fish
out of this crowd.

Wherever they don't get,
we're gonna try to get.

Every pass they make
with the green stick,

We can see the marks
following it.

So, we just have to draw 'e
away from the competition

So both of our boats
can hook up.

[all exclaiming]

We got fish on!
Yeah, baby!

Keep it tight, keep it tight,
keep it tight.

- [reel grinding]
- we're on.

He's on.

We're on.

That's a big one,

This thing is taking line like
a mother.

Here we go, muscles.
You only got one job.

[all laughing]

We got fish, buddy.

This look like a big one.

Here he comes. Here he comes.

Man vs. Fish.

Got dolphin chasing me.

A lot of times that we're
dragging this rig through,

- The dolphins like to follow
the bird.
- Oh.

So, wherever we go
and they're gonna stay
right with us.

Look at that guy, whoo!

They're chasing bait,
that means the dolphins
are feeding.

So that means that tuna
is probably going to feed
right with 'em.

- Very cool.
- Yeah. Oh, check it out. Yeah.

Want to get into position
and make sure our squids

Are right there in the front
where they're feeding.

Our goal is to try to pass
right over the top

Of that feeding frenzy
and hope that tuna

Mistake our lures for bait.

Instinct takes over.

That looks like it's sh**ting
in the air.

And that's what they like.

If they're really hungry
they might take it.

Like my dog jack comes back
to my truck for bacon,

Don't even think,
"bacon!"

Here it comes. Here it comes.

Man vs. Fish.

We got a big fish in our line
and john has got another one

On the green stick.

This might be
the feeding frenzy we've bee
waiting for.

Ten fathoms.

Got roll going. He knows.

Go a long ways towards
that matt o'brien order.

That's the fish right there.

This is it.

All right. You ready?

One, two, three.

- Oh, god.
- Whoo.

That is a beautiful fish.

That's at least a buck 60.

That is a beauty, guys.

- Good job, buddy.
- Dude.

Let's go get another one.

I cannot believe how well
this green stick's workin'.

- Dude, it's drawing in fish.
- It's pretty impressive.

We got a fish going.
Yeah, baby!

- Keep it tight, keep it tight.
- Yeah.

Floater.

Got a nice one.
It ain't coming in easy.

Oh, we're almost there.
Coming up to the first wave,

- We need the gaffs ready.
- Yeah, baby.

Son of a b*tch.
He's a big fish.

He's getting close.

- Get 'em, guys.
- Get them.

- Get 'em.
- Go, go.

[grunts]

- Okay, ready?
- One, two, three.

- [grunts]
- get 'em.

[whoops]

[all cheering]

That's a big fish.

- Yes.
- That's a nice one.

-Wow.
-That's a nice one.
That's what we wanted.

Yeah.

Whoa, we're on.

We got another one right now.

Yeah, baby.

Now, just crank.
Keep it coming, dude.

Oh, baby.

He's running hard.

That's a big fish.

*bleep*

Yes, all right.

[indistinct chatter]

Got him.

- Yeah.
- Whoo.

That's a beast.

- [laughs]
- we need a bigger cooler.

So far so good.
We're kicking a*s right now.

- All right, keep going.
- Don't lose this one.

This could be it.
This could be the deal
sealer right here.

Oh, *bleep*

- Wow.
- Bring him up.

[laughs] this might be bigger
than the other one.

There you go.

Whoo. Another one in.

Another one in the boat.

Nice, baby! Yeah!

It worked.

You got some nice fish?

We got a bunch of beautiful
yellows on board, my friend.

We got some ahis too.
Beautiful fish.

I think we might have
finally finished
this order off.

Have you guys heard
from jeff?

No, not yet.

Maybe that's a good thing.

Hopefully it's a good thing.

Nice fish.

- Do you think
I'm about 70, 60?
- Yeah.

I mean, it might...
That might be it.

Yeah?

- You got 'em?
- Unreal day, man. Unreal.

- Good fun.
- Unreal.

What's up, buddy?

Hey, josh. Quick trip
over here, it paid off.

- Yeah, man, we got
at least 10.
- That is awesome, man.

Nice fish.
Beautiful fish, man.

I just wanted to give you
the news, man.

Pretty sure we hit the order.

Fantastic, dude.

- All right, man.
- All right, later, bro.

[josh] this is by far
the biggest fishing day
we've ever had.

We crushed it for both side
of the island.

We got exactly what we needed.

For kona brew
and matt o'brien.

Hawaii delivered.

Let's go ahead
and tally this up.

Get this fish to market.

[josh] sounds like
a good plan.

A lot of people stepped up
for the last 13 weeks,

But I couldn't have done it
without shane.

-A lot of learning this year
-yeah.

Fishing 101.

Seems like you got
the bug now.

I do kind of like it,
it grew on me.

I'm so happy that
you asked me to come.

I don't think that
you would have the abilities

That you have.

It surprised the *bleep*
out of me, man.

You know, I got
my brother back.

Dude, now I know...

You definitely have
your brother back, man.

And, yeah, definitely
the old man would
definitely feel.

I think he would be
really happy
to see us together.

I know you knew how important
I was to you.

I'm really proud of you, dude.

- Love you, brother.
- I love you too, pal.

All right, I'll tell you what.

You did good.
Made the old man proud.

You definitely made me proud.

All right, buddy,
I'll hear from you soon, eh?

- Yes, you will.
- Be safe.

All right, love you, pal.

[phil] I think everybody wan
a legacy, you know?

After I'm dead and gone...

There's just a lot of things
that I've taken for granted

In my life that
I need to start addressing.

You know, if something
happened to me right now,

What would happen if...

You know, the boys.

Just what would happen
if I fell off the face of
the earth right now.

[josh] one thing I've learne
is that life is never
really finished.

No matter what challenges
you face.

There's always more you want
to achieve

- *bleep* watch out!
- Whoa.

Dude.

Man, this place got hit hard

Absolutely destroyed.

- Whoa.
- *bleep*

Man overboard.

No matter how many friends
have your back.

- What a *bleep* day, brother.
- Whoo!

No matter what you accomplis

Got a double. Oh, *bleep*

[both laughing]

Yeah!

Can't believe y'all
got it done.

It'll never feel
like you're done.

What do we got next?

[exclaims, whoops]

After my old man died,
I couldn't stop thinking abo

All the things
he was gonna miss.

The truth is, the legacy
that he left me

And my brothers,

Both of them, is getting
stronger every day.

Got a surprise for you, pops.

Oh, yeah.

Another member to the team.

[josh] we're just
getting started.

This is going to be your
new home away from home.

- We'll make him proud, man.
- You better believe, brother.
