Oh, oh, ****. Oh, ****.
01:00:09 NARRATOR:
The Northern fleet has failed to take home the
top-earning title in Southern waters.
It came off. The Southern guys, you know, they
were all, rah, rah, rah! Beating their chests.
01:00:19 NARRATOR:
But now…
01:00:20 TJ OTT:
Come on, baby.
01:00:20 NARRATOR:
Captain TJ Ott is closer than ever before.
01:00:23 TJ OTT:
It's neck and neck. The top boat's only one fish
ahead of us.
01:00:26 NARRATOR:
And as Northern success threatens Southern
fishermen…
01:00:28 CHARLIE GRIFFIN:
Makes my stomach hurt.
01:00:30 CLIFF SPENCER:
Sick of having hard luck.
We're on! We're on! We're on!

01:00:33 NARRATOR:
Three-time champion Fishin' Frenzy must
defend their position without a captain.

All right, let's roll out Duff-Duff. Let's catch
some fish.
01:01:16 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: TYLER MCLAUGHLIN:
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN Trying to get off the dock here before these
CAPTAIN, PINWHEEL Southern captains. We got a good weather
window. Everyone's gonna be going today.
2
There's big money to be had and the quota's
running out. We wanna represent the North. I
mean we're here to challenge them. We're
here to give them a run for their money. We
wanna beat 'em. You know, there's nothing
better than going fishing. It's long hours, it's
hard. You know, it's 1:30 in the morning but
I'm happy, I'm excited. I can't wait to see what
the day brings.
01:01:40 TJ OTT:
It's neck and neck right now. We're within one
fish of the lead.
01:01:43 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: TJ OTT:
TJ OTT Tomorrow could be our day where we take the
CAPTAIN, HOT TUNA lead. So, as much as we like to get a good
night's sleep, we have to go. Right now, the
morale aboard the boat is very high. I mean,
when it's said and done, if we stay on pace the
way we've been going, this will be our best
season yet in the Outer Banks. The most
important thing is you gotta want it, and we
want it. So that's the difference this year. You
know, last year we got smoked down here.
People talked crap about us. We've got to go
and prove to ourselves most importantly that
we can handle it. So you know what? The
pelicans are going.
Are you awake yet?
ANGELICA MARCIANO:
****.
Are you having fun yet?
ANGELICA MARCIANO:
****.
The sun is just about to break the horizon.
01:02:24 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: DAVE MARCIANO:
DAVE MARCIANO We're gonna get the bird out. We're gonna get
CAPTAIN, FALCON the stick up and we're gonna see what
happens. The bird is the word.
The bird is the word.
3
This season, the Northern boats are doing
better than ever before. And there's a good
chance Hot Tuna, Pinwheel, or even us on the
Falcon could take this whole thing. So we're
out here earlier than anyone else and we're
here to win. The probability of catching one on
the greenstick is approximately four billion and
four hundred thirty-six to one.
So you're saying there's a chance?
Just coming up on the bridge. That's the last
obstacle before we got to deal with the bar.
Two more obstacles and we're home free on
our way to the fishing grounds.
What is this? What is this?
01:03:17 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE:
Breakers. Breakers.
What's gonna happen What's gonna happen when we get here?
when we get here?
Is there no wave right Is there no wave right there for us?
there for us?
It’s shallow.
Oh.
We ******* hit the bar! We ******* hit the bar!
That's what I'm saying, That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying,
it's shallow as ****. it's shallow as ****.
We, it came off one wave and landed and there
was no, no water there for us. We rubbed the
bottom. It sucks. We're lucky we didn't ruin
the boat. This late in the season, I can't afford
mistakes like that. I mean, it's go time. We're
in third place. If something like that happened
to the Fishin' Frenzy, it'd be their season, over,
4
done with. Same thing with Doghouse.
Because we got a keel, you know, we're in
good shape. But that just, that's just sketchy.
The bar’s constantly moving. That's crazy.
01:04:09 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: JASON "DIRTY" FUTCH:
JASON "DIRTY" FUTCH Outer Banks, choppy. It's that time of year you
SECOND MATE, FISHIN' better get your head right. It's Bluefin season.

GREG
It's all on you, Billon
01:04:20 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: BILLON HOLLINGSWORTH:
Don't lose our top spot. Ugh. Captain's checking on us.
We're holding the fort down while Greg's gone.
He might be coming back. This might be our
last trip as trying to be the Legends of the Fall
instead of the Boys of Summer on this rig. Let's
see what we can do. We're gonna make him
proud. That's all we can do, man. Hope and
pray a blind hog finds an acorn.
Dirty and I are on another adventure without
our fearless leader after Greg injured his arm.
01:04:44 GREG MAYER:
Oh, ****.
BILLON I got a lot on my shoulders, I'm the captain in
HOLLINGSWORTH this boat for the first time. I'm trying to keep
FIRST MATE, FISHIN' us safe and I'm trying to keep us in the lead. So
FRENZY hopefully he'll be healed up then we can get
back to normal, but we'll do what we got to do
in the meantime. So we got the lead, we're
just trying to hold on to it.
Are you ready?
Yeah, let her go.
We're gonna get us one today before the
bacon's done cooking. I love it.
Love it.

01:05:09 NICK GOWITZKA:
Come on, baby. Just a little love. That's all I'm
asking for.
Yeah, right. There's the Frenzy off our port.
Yeah, Billon, fishing without Greg.
01:05:19 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: NICK GOWITZKA:
NICK GOWITZKA I only worked with Billon two years. I worked
CAPTAIN, LITTLE SHELL on the Frenzy for 10. And Billon only came
around recently. We're deep into the season
and the Fishin' Frenzy is still in the lead even
with Greg off the water. It's a hard pill to
swallow to know that I'm trailing behind Greg's
mates. I would feel devastated if I lost this
competition to a couple deckhands and I'm not
gonna let that happen. I mean, it's just fishing.
It ain't rocket science. Look at all the other
dummies out here doing it. I've caught a
couple, so you know it ain't that damn hard.
Time for me to get back in the zone. I'm gonna
get 'em, son. I got confidence.
You've done such a good job.
Yeah, that's right.
You can really do it, autopilot.
Yeah.
You're awesome, Cap'n.
You're awesome.
You're awesome.
You're awesome.
You are awesome.
There's a mark right there. And we're in 'em
right here. ****.
6
Kind of mark. Jig it!
Jigging it, baby.
That's a, that's a good mark.
Target rich environment here.
They getting ready to get it. I'm telling you.
They're liking this.
Come on, baby! Coming back up to 10
fathoms.
Coming up again here. Come on, baby!
Oh, there he is!
Got 'em on!
That's what I'm talking about. Got 'em on,
again.
All right. We got one on.
Ah, **** ****. Still coming.
Come on. Come on. Come on, B. Get 'em
pissed off. Get 'em pissed off.
Come on, baby. We're gonna get one right
here. Oh, there goes your breakaway. There it
goes.
We're on! Yee-haw!
Gotcha.
That's the real one.
Yeah, baby! Hooked up. Let's show the fleet
how it's done. You feel like he's got the
7
weight?
Feels like money! Feels like money. Damn.
Dammit! Burn her down. She's pulling down.
The ball's going under.
It's a giant. It's an absolute giant.
We're getting paid today!
Starting to get a little bit of line.
The conditions don't make it any easier.
The swell can affect more pressure on that
hook.
Just take our time, hopefully he'll cooperate.
There's a time to be patient, there's a time to
act. Right now we're being patient.
Hold on, hold on, hold on. There. See if I can.
Pull the hook. Pull the hook, no. Come on.
No, he's still there. He's there.
He might have been wrapped up funny.
Maybe. Weird.
Still got him on. I just hope we get him.
Hey, he's coming up now. Get ready to get
your breakaway.
Get your breakaway, Brandan right here. Get a
snap off.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, right here.
Get a snap off. There you go.
8
All right. Fish, where you at?
I can't see a damn thing. Oh, I'm nervous, bud.
Ain't there now though. Ain't there now though.
He ain't.
We suck. He's gone. He ain't there.
**********.
Ain't no way that that bait can't handle that
****.
******* sucks.
It ain't there.
[inaudible]
That was a giant.
Yeah, I know it was. But let's still go quick
here. There's fish around.
Let this get us back on.
If we caught every one of ‘em, wouldn't be
none out here.
Hold tight. I'm gonna try to get around on him.
He's right here swimming that way.
He's doing his circle. Repeating the same
pattern. There's the swivel right there at the
water.
Just trying to stay downwind of him.
Yeah, I think that's gonna work.
When it's choppy and you got current, it makes
9
a lot harder but you just want to keep the boat
in a good position with the fish so that you
don't run him over and you get a good dart
shot. I see him. We got color, the fish is close.
All right, crank him right to me.
One more. We'll get him one more.
Hold tight. Hold tight! Hold tight. Hold tight.
Wait! Wait! Whoa! Wait! Wait! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Whoa!
He's right here! He's right here.
He's right here! Come He's right here. Come here! Come here!
here! Come here!
Come here! Come here!
Dart him off the back Dart him off the back here. We got him.
here!
Yeah.
Ease up a little bit.
I did.
If you can try and pull that dart line? We ain't
got him yet. Okay. Money in the bank, baby!
Pretty work.
Thank you, sir.
Awesome. All right, on the tail rope.
Billon and Dirty are already packing out. Man,
this sucks.
Freaking suck.
What the hey, man!
01:09:37 TJ OTT:

I'm not saying, but I'm just saying.

True story.
01:09:45 DALE LISI:
The old Greg taught Billon well. All the
underhanded tactics to make sure you're
number one.
We got one. Feels good to have Greg trust us
so we can help him out. That's what
friendship's all about, man. All right. All right.
Ready, ready. One, two, three. All right.
All right. we're gonna do a quick measurement
and we'll get out of here.
We got 85 (215 centimeters).
Eighty-five (215 centimeters), all right.
On the nose.
I like it.
Eighty-five (215 centimeters) more inches than
we left the dock with.
We got it.
Pretty work, Captain Billon.
Pretty work. Pretty work.
11
That's how we do it around here.
Just got to wait for our turn, man. Hopefully
we can get some love. Even though we rubbed
bottom earlier, we made a good strategy this
morning. We started south of everyone, which
means that we can use the tide to help us pick
up a couple miles an hour (3 kilometers per
hour) while we're going north. So instead of
having to fight through the tides that's
constantly pushing us back, we can hop up in
there and it'll be like the expressway.
01:10:43 FISHERMAN:
Other than that, no.
01:10:45 DALE LISI:
Gotcha. Good morning, buddy, hope you get
one today.
Oh, you're the best, man. Thanks so much.
01:10:51 DALE LISI:
Nobody's talking to you, Tyler. That's the Pin
weasel right there. Popping his mouth off like
usual. Pop. Pop. Pop.
Old Pin squeal. Old momma's boy.
You're lucky I'm setting out down sea. Those
Southern guys, you know they were all, rah,
rah, rah, beating their chests like they think
they're the best thing since sliced bread, but
that ain't the case. Flat-out, I think a lot of
these guys are jealous of me. I'm a lot younger
than them and I've caught a lot more fish and
they don't like it. Tough. We know we got
what it takes. We won up north this year and
we brought the title down here and we're here
to defend it.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE But we're gonna set out.
FIRST MATE, PINWHEEL
Get the stick ready. Let's do it.
12
Set out. Set out. Set out.
The squids are out. Ready to roll.
Get all the bird over. I can't believe we didn't
get a bite yet. Here, tuna, tuna, tuna. That's
them. Start circles on them. That's them.
We're going over some nice tuna marks right
now. Nice marks, that's what we wanna see.
We're trying to get a bite. Jig the stick. Jig the
stick. Please jig it. We're gonna go off!
Here we go! Oh. This rod's bouncing.
Is it him?
I think so.
All right! Dude, what do you want me to do
with my coffee? My coffee just spilled.
We've got bluefin to We've got Bluefin to catch.

We're on! We're on! We're on! Yes! Rod bite,
baby!
Rod bite!
Nice, got 'em on! Oh, he's running! He's
running. He's running. He's running.
That's him, man. Woo. Down and tight.
Ballyhoo going off. Woo.
Duffy's ballyhoo.
Woo-hoo!
Hell yeah.
Just saying, I'm not gonna get tangled on you,
right?
13
Probably.
Watch your back.
Just wanna be able to get down and dirty with
this fish without getting a tangle. It's a lot
different than up north. When we're fishing on
the anchor, we got to worry about the
greenstick line. You know, we really wanna get
this stick out of the way. That can saw all the
fish right off. Get this rod out of here. Oh,
****. What the ****! Oh.
It's all ****** tied It's all ******* tied around.

Get this thing. Get this rod out of here. We're
hooked up to a monster Bluefin, but the rod
line just got tangled up with the bandit reel.
Ugh.
Still on?
Got 'em on! Woo! Get this in, quick! We got
the line untangled and now this fish is running
like crazy.
A lot of line.
We got to get it back to the boat as fast as
possible.
All right. Let's do it, buddy.
Oh! It just came off. ****. Pulled the hook.
TYLER MCLAUGHLIN We finally caught up, got tight with him and it
CAPTAIN, PINWHEEL pulled right out. It was definitely a tuna. ****.
Now we're losing time because we're not
fishing. Everyone else is fishing. We got to get
set back out.
NICK "DUFFY" FUDGE Knock it in gear, T.
FIRST MATE, PINWHEEL
You know, you can't do anything when you're
pulling the hook but at least you got a bite.
We're still in this thing.
You're on a roll.
On a roll. We're trying.
I guess I can retire?
I don't know about all that.
01:14:53 DENNIS GORE:
Fishin' Frenzy back on the meat again, today.
15
We're trying, yeah, man.
Well done, guys. Looks like a nice fish. Let's
get it off and see what it's all about.
Yup.
Let's do it. Greg's put a lot of faith in me letting
me run the boat while he's healing up and I've
delivered with two fish since he's been gone.
We've got our lead, but the day has just begun
and other boats could be bringing in bigger fish
behind us. All right Dennis, what we got now.
Two seventy-five (124 kilograms) dressed, guys.
All right, we'll take him.
Good fish.
Nice little fish. Let's see what the color looks
like.
All right, man.
Let's check it out.
When the buyer's looking at the fish, he's
looking for the fat content, the color of the
meat, and the clarity of the core. See what we
got here.
I feel like I'm a spectator.
This one's not jammed up with fat. This is kind
of a lean fish. Look at that. The tail color's
terrible.
What's it gonna be?
Best I can do for you on this one is 10 bucks a
pound (453 grams), guys.
16
275 LBS (124 We did what we could.
KILOGRAMS)
X $10/LB (453 GRAMS)
$2,750
At least we're not going backwards.
I was hoping a good price would really solidify
our lead on the other boats.
Thanks, Greg.
But with prices like that, boats like the
Pinwheel and the Hot Tuna are only one high
quality fish behind us.
Got another couple days. Hope I'll be on there
with you.
I hope. Thank you.
See ya.
Get her up. We've got one more trip left
without Greg and I really wanna put some
distance between us and the competition
before he gets back.
We'll do you proud, Cap.

when you're living out on the water away from
civilization.

This is what it's all about.
You really appreciate the little small things.

That right there is the reason that I know God
loves me. He got a man to invent a toothbrush
and toothpaste for the nights that you stay out
here all night long and don't sleep and you feel
like you got carpet growing in your mouth.
Oh, man.
01:16:50 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: CAINE LIVESAY:

Oh, yeah. Brush you teeth.
There's nothing worse in the whole world than
a sip of coffee with a, with toothpaste.
No. No, no, no!
I'd rather eat the contents of a tuna's stomach.
Well, if you ate the contents of this, tunas that
we've caught this year's stomach, you wouldn't
eat nothing.
You wouldn't eat much.
Come-from-behind fishing is tough.
Come on, tunas. Why you got to be so
difficult? Ugh.

Might have to put that stick up and set out.
Yes.
Go over top of me, get right up there.
I am. I was getting my safety line.
Oh, I gotcha. We lost a fish earlier today.
Oh.
And we're in fourth place right now.
We're such ballerinas.
We can't afford to be wasting opportunities like
that, especially when we're trailing not one,
but two Yankee boats.
NICK GOWITZKA I cannot get outfished by a Northern boat in my
CAPTAIN, LITTLE SHELL home waters.
Sucks. Pretty sure there's fish here. Come on,
fish.
Dammit, we got to get lucky. Come on. Here's
the mark. Holy cannoli! That's the meat!
Good mark. Jig it, Brandan. Eight fathoms.
Eight fathoms, B. Come on, B.
Jig it, Brandan. That's the meat.
Give me a fish, B. Come on, man!
Come on, fish!
19
You're good, Brandan. You'll get him any
second.
There he goes! Oh, ****. I got him! He's on
there.
Got him on!
That's what I'm talking about.
Keep him coming.
Holy crap, dude. Jig the stick, baby! Jig the
stick, son!
He's on that drop coming up.
He's on the next one!
Yup.
Get your dart ready, Brandan! Go ahead, Cliff.
Go ahead!
Let's show 'em how it's done, boys.
There he is, boys. Got color.
Cut it off, Cliff.
That looks good, man. That looks real good.
Whoa! He's gonna be a short.
See what we got.
Cut his ass free.
Here.
There you go. There you go. Pull hard. Snatch
it away and I'll snatch mine. Dammit, man!
20
To kill a legal Bluefin it's got to be over 73
inches (175 centimeters). That fish weren't
over 73 inches (175 centimeters).
That would have been a short.
You got to let him go because it takes little
ones to have big ones. Hopefully, we're gonna
get us a big one.
It's the worst thing in the world, a short tuna.
Try and try and try until you get 'em. Can't
afford to go home. That's bottom line.
01:19:59 WILL HATHAWAY:

counts.

stinking hook.
01:21:09 MIKE OTT:
It's been a long day, but we got a beautiful
sunset. Sometimes these things get really
aggressive at sunset and start biting. Hopefully
we get that Cinderella tonight. We got maybe
another hour to fish, if that, maybe 40 minutes
so, hopefully we get a dumb one to hold on.
01:21:31 TJ OTT:
We've been in the top three spots almost the
whole season. This feels like our season to
take the title home for the North, but the Billon
and Jay Express on the Fishin' Frenzy have
already caught a fish today and we've been
coming up empty the last couple of trips.
TJ OTT We've got to get something to hang on the line
CAPTAIN, HOT TUNA before the end of the day or we're at risk of
falling behind.
01:21:49 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: MIKE OTT:
MIKE OTT It's not a good feeling when a lot of the boats,
DECKHAND, HOT TUNA you know, a couple of these guys were getting
their bites at 8:00, 9:00, 8:00, 9:00 in the
morning. Even earlier than that and they got
fast boats, they're back at the dock by 10:00.
And we're still out here working. You know, we
wanna catch that fish just as bad as those guys
do. Come on, baby, give us a ******* nice
22
one.
Any second now.
01:22:12 TJ OTT:
There's a mark. Hundred to one-fifty. That's
them. Mother lode right there.
Is that a bite?
01:22:28 MIKE OTT:
Yeah, baby! Woo! We're on! We're on!
We're on!
01:22:31 TJ OTT:
Pa-pow, baby!
Fish on, guys.
01:22:34 MIKE OTT:
Night bite, baby. Just hooked up, sun's going
down. Oh, God. I need a hand here.
01:22:39 TJ OTT:
What's the matter?
01:22:40 MIKE OTT:
TJ, I'm tied up. You got to help me here. It's
******* wrapped around the tip.
WICKED We need this one, man. We need it.
TUNA
OUTER BANKS
WICKED Pa-pow, baby!
TUNA
OUTER BANKS
Fish on, guys.
01:22:54 MIKE OTT:
Oh, God. I need a hand here. TJ, I'm tied up.
You got to help me here before he breaks off.
01:22:59 TJ OTT:
What's the matter?
01:23:00 MIKE OTT:
It's ******* wrapped around the tip.
01:23:02 TJ OTT:
***** ******. We need this one, man. We
23
need it, man.
01:23:05 MIKE OTT:
Tangled and everything. I got it. I got it!
01:23:11 TJ OTT:
He still there?
01:23:12 MIKE OTT:
I don't know.
Is he on?
01:23:16 MIKE OTT:
There he is. He's there. He's there! No, I feel
him now.
Woo!
01:23:20 TJ OTT:
Got 'em on, baby! Woo! Got a Cinderella bite.
Breaker went, now we got 'em on. Took a big
run. Trying to get him to surrender to the flow
here. Time's always on my mind when we
hook a fish at night.
7:22 PM Take your time. You can't rush a fish. You still
have to be careful.
Damn. This is all tangled up.
01:23:37 TJ OTT:
But right now, we're on a deadline. We've got
four and a half hours to get this fish on the
boat, into the dock before midnight.
TJ OTT Every second counts. This is the one, man.
CAPTAIN, HOT TUNA This one's gonna put us one more fish up the
leaderboard.
01:23:49 MIKE OTT:
Come on, fish, come to Bubby.
01:23:53 TJ OTT:
The reel is turning, but Bubby's slowing 'em
down. Jarrett, you be ready with a harpoon,
too.
All right. He's coming up.
01:23:59 MIKE OTT:
Right here. He's on top.
24
01:24:03 MIKE OTT:
Stick that ************.
01:24:03 TJ OTT:
Dart him! Dart him!
Got him!
01:24:08 TJ OTT:
Nice dart shot, Jarrett! Get the gaff, Bubby,
while I keep the boat going.
01:24:11 MIKE OTT:
Night bites.
Good.
01:24:13 MIKE OTT:
Got him. Get a gaff. Tail gaff.
01:24:15 TJ OTT:
Oh, yeah.
01:24:16 MIKE OTT:
Holy ****.
01:24:20 TJ OTT:
Yeah, baby! We got him, baby! Woo.
Yeah! Woo.
01:24:23 TJ OTT:
Yeah. Woo.
Good job, buddy. Good job.
01:24:30 TJ OTT:
You on there, Falcon? The North's making a
comeback, Cap. You'll get him. I know it.
Yeah, that's right. That's right. You're, you're
doing good. Puts you one behind the leader
there. Keep up the good work. We'll try to
keep carrying water over here so we can do
well as a team.
01:24:46 TJ OTT:
Yeah. Yeah, even Pinhead. Need him to catch
a few, too.
Yup. We're all like the three musketeers. All
for one and every man for himself.
25
All right.
01:24:57 TJ OTT:
All right, buddy. Good luck. Let me, uh, got to
help these guys get back in a minute.
All right, very good, TJ.
01:25:05 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
7:49 PM Let's measure him up.
01:25:07 MIKE OTT:
We're gonna be surprised here.
01:25:09 TJ OTT:
Holy moly. Eighty-nine 89 (226 centimeters),
perfect size, baby. We'll take it. Eighty-nine
inch (226 centimeters) Cinderella, baby. Woo.
All right, good job, boys. Good job. Welcome
aboard, buddy! We're gonna be real close to
that midnight deadline, there's no doubt about
it.
01:25:30 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: JARRETT PRZYBYSZEWSKI:
11:59 PM Welcome to the Hotel Hot Tuna, baby. Where
you can come, but you can never leave.
01:25:36 TJ OTT:
It's such a relief getting this fish in before
midnight because it means we get to fish again
tomorrow. We're so hot on Frenzy's tail right
now, we can't afford to miss a minute on the
water.
Just in the knick of time, TJ.
01:25:47 TJ OTT:
We just made it, man. It was a nail biter, no
doubt. Wanna get a weight on him, get him up
there?
Let's do it.
01:25:52 MIKE OTT:
It's a big Boston Mackerel.
01:25:54 TJ OTT:
We're in the number two spot behind Frenzy
right now. They've got some distance on us,
and they caught another this morning, so we
need a good price for this fish to help close the
gap between us.
26
Two hundred and twenty-five pounds (102
kilograms) dressed, man.
01:26:06 TJ OTT:
We'll take it, man.
Let's see how it grades out.
01:26:08 TJ OTT:
All right, cool. Beautiful, huh?
Yeah, I like this nice sticky meat. Nice little fish.
And the core color is just gorgeous.
01:26:19 TJ OTT:
So what are you thinking?
Twenty-two dollars a pound (453 grams) for
this one.
225 LBS (102 That works. I'm cool with that. Thank you,
KILOGRAMS) man.
$22/LB (453 GRAMS)
$4,950
01:26:29 MIKE OTT:
Perfect.
01:26:29 TJ OTT:
Nice to see you.
Thank you very much.
01:26:30 TJ OTT:
It's not a huge fish, but we got a great price.
Greg better hope that his mates keep catching
fish for him because the Hot Tuna is not
slowing down.
Good night, guys. See you tomorrow, I hope.
01:26:39 TJ OTT:
All right, Dennis. Thank you.
01:26:44 MIKE OTT:
Woo! Yeah.
01:26:46 TJ OTT:
Get to fish again tomorrow, we'll take it.
Let the sticking begin. We spent the night. It's
27
first thing in the morning. Nice and early.
Sun's just about to break the horizon. Wee!
Sooner or later, we're gonna get the right bite,
Joe.
That's right.
Up, up and away hey.
Let it fly.
All right.
All righty then. Oh, we're on! Well, that was
quick.
I didn't even see a mark. I hope it's what we
want. Hell, I don't think it's our thousand
pound (453 kilograms) Bluefin, whatever it is.
Doesn't feel very epic. This is supposed to be
leaving at a high rate of speed.
I know.
******* nothing. Oh, man.
DAVE MARCIANO I'm really getting frustrated with this greenstick
CAPTAIN, FALCON fishing. We seem to be popping it early, and
missing the fish when we get a bite. All right.
Let's send him back out, Joe. It may be the
case of the Falcon, but it's almost three times
as much horsepower as the Hard Merch. We
might be "busting our breaker prematurely."
Whoa! We're on! We're on!
What the ****.
Ugh.
Does it look like something this time?
I didn't see it. It just broke again.
28
The Southern boys swear by the greenstick, but
like I've said before, you've got to be careful
when you follow the masses. Sometimes the
M is silent. Okay. Up, up and away.
All right. Third time's a charm.
High ho, Silver.
Okay, Gentlemen. See if I can find a mark. We
finally got out here. The weather's great.
01:28:51 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: CHARLIE GRIFFIN:
CHARLIE GRIFFIN It's just a matter of finding a mark now, and
CAPTAIN, REELS OF maybe getting lucky and getting a bite.
FORTUNE Hopefully, we'll be doing battle directly. Right
now, we're not doing so good. Trip after trip,
we're not catching bluefin. When you have a
series of bad days in a row, it wears you out
mentally. Sometimes it's hard, but you just got
to keep your head up and keep fishing. See if I
can't get it locked in, tuned in, and find out
what's shaking here. Come on, marks. Where
are you? Where you at, fish? Hey, hey, hey!
Might be some two tones right here with it.
I'mma make a pass on the two tones first.
Here's a mark. There's a mark. There's a tuna
mark there, bud. Come on, man. We need a
bite.
Got 'em on, bud. Back her up! Back her up.
Come on, bubba. Come on, bubba!
Is that a fish?
Yeah.
Huh?
Yeah.
I got it. I got it. Oh, boy. Might have got off.
Dammit, man!
29
01:30:01 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: STEVE HALL:
Gone? Gone?
I think he's gone.
****.
Missing out on catching a fish really hurts
because we're only allowed one a day. And
we've only caught three fish so far this season.
So right now, we need to catch a fish pretty
bad.
Dammit, man. That sucks.
01:30:15 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: STEVE HALL:
STEVE HALL We pulled the hook, and sometimes you're
FIRST MATE, REELS OF unlucky.
FORTUNE
Oh, my gosh. Makes my stomach hurt. That
was not a little bite. That was a big bite. I'd
love to find him again.
Little shell on three. One, two, three. Little
Shell! We had a couple of setbacks with our
tackle failures and all, but I'mma tell you, it
don't pay to cry about it, you know what I
mean? We stay tough and we're gonna keep
dragging.
We've had some hard luck for two days now.
Sick of having hard luck.
Oh, boy.
There's the mark. Nine fathoms. Nine
fathoms.
That's them. Come on, baby! Still marking
'em, Brandan.
Come on, baby! Come on, man. There he
goes!
30
Got him on.
Got him on!
Woo!
It's our chance, boys.
Wish I had that green one ready for when we
lose this fish.
Shut up! Dear Lord. Please give me the
strength to deal with this guy. We gonna get
ours. That looks good, man. That looks real
good.
This one right here, got a lot riding on him.
Going down deep.
Coming up here, now. Look at him bust inside
of us [inaudible] going slow here. When you go
in gear, he gets pulling hard. I like it.
Watch that corner, B.
Straight down.
Uh, I'd want it to nick that metal and then–
Burn it hard, and get it way from him. There
you go. Keep it right here to the side. All right,
he's coming up. Quit doing that.
Hold him off the boat.
All right, just turn hard, Cliff, turn hard. Keep
turning. Keep turning. Go right around that
ball if you can. He's gonna be on the next one,
I think.
I'm right behind you, Nick. You just tell me
31
what you want, buddy.
Keep her in gear, Cliff. He's a big bastard, I
think. Just take our time here. Just don't take
her out of gear. Here he comes. Right this
way. Making a circle. Get your dart ready,
Brandan.
Here he comes, Brandan.
Stop the bandit reel. Get ready, Brandan.
Keep her in gear, Cliff.

me a gaff. We're good. Just let me have it. All
right, get a tail gaff and a tail rope. Right side,
Cliff. Get it tight.
Good job, boys.
Perseverance, baby!
Yeah.
All right. One, two, three. Old Gollywhopper.
To pull a Bluefin on deck is a feeling like
nothing else.
Ninety-three incher (236 centimeters), boys!
Yeah!
32
Yeah. Fat 93 inches (236 centimeters).
Good job, B!
Awesome, buddy.
Pretty fish.
NICK GOWITZKA It totally changes the morale on the boat. You
CAPTAIN, LITTLE SHELL know, you've got a paycheck and a sense of
accomplishment, there's nothing like that.
Look at that thing, baby!
Yes!
Take us home!
Take us home!
Take us home, baby.
You don't want me to chum, right?
If you want, Joe, chum away. I don't care. I'll
try anything at this point.
You want soup? You want a sandwich?
Nope. I wanna catch a fish.
Well, don't be grumpy because you're hungry
later.
I'm grumpy until there's a dead fish on deck.
That might be them.
That's them.
Coming up high now, 90 feet (27 meters) Right
through the rig. Usually we get a bite when
that happens. ****.
33
Do you think they could have sniped the bait?
Yeah, I'm gonna check the bait.
DAVE MARCIANO When a fish snipes our bait, that means he
CAPTAIN, FALCON came up, he bit the bait, but he didn't quite get
the hook in his mouth.
What?
There he is. Here he is. Here he is.
Yeah, we're on!
Oh, oh, ****. Oh, ****.
Joe, get the rod. Get the rod. We're on, yeah,
baby! Hooked up.
That's a wicked ******* screamer.
Get Gel on the rod and move here.
Yeah, yeah. Ready, Gel?
Yup.
All right. Just keep letting him run.

Good job, Gel.
Joe, can you swap out? Ready?
Yup.

see him soon.
Yup. He's coming at us. He's coming at us.
Bump it, bump it, bump it, bump it! There he
is!
We got color!
Come on, baby! Stick him! Nailed him.

Tail rope!
Okay. Okay. Okay. Holy.
Yeah!
Okay. Perfect.
Yeah!
Now we got him secure. Well done.
Yeah! Good job. Hell yeah. Good job, Gel.
Yeah! Oh, hugging. Okay, okay, we're hugging.
I'm thrilled we got this fish, but because of the
35
one fish per trip limit, we got to get it back to
the dock by midnight.
Yeah.
Or we're not allowed to fish again for 24 hours.
What do we got, guys?
One hundred inches (254 centimeters). Yeah!
A hundred incher (254 centimeters), Gel.
Boom! Biggest fish this season in the Outer
Banks for us. It's gonna be down to the wire.
All right, let's get steaming.
All right. We got to go.
It's gonna be so close.
Pedal to the metal.
11:51 PM Woo! That was a battle. Coming in, we got us
a good one here. My woman's here. Kind of
excited.
Fat one?
Ninety-three incher (236 centimeters). He's
really fat, so we're stoked.
Let's check it out.
Nothing like having eight minutes to spare.
Scotty, what's going on? Hi, girls!
01:36:47 NANCY MARCIANO:
Hi!
Hey.
it feels great to bring in such a monster fish
while the rest of the family is in town visiting.
01:36:55 SCOTT "SCOTSO" D'AMICO:
Let's get it up and check it out.
36
Look at that round thing. He has a good shape,
doesn't he?
Sure does.
Gel and Joe, reeled it in. Gel, did a lot of it.

Three hundred and forty-five pounds (156
kilograms) dressed, Nick.
Nice!
Four hundred and fifteen pounds (188

only is this our biggest fish of the season, this is
the biggest fish we've ever caught in the Outer

Big score. Big score! Well done, Gel. Big
score. This is exactly the fish and the paycheck
that we were looking for.
We deserved that.
We had to work for it, but we got him.
Wow. Wow. Beautiful fish, Dennis.
Sure is. I'm loving the translucency in the, in
the tail here. You can see deep into the meat.
It's really, really a nice fish you guys caught.
Having a baby on the way has added a lot of
extra pressure on me.
BRANDAN BRICKHOUSE The last thing you wanna do is tell a pregnant
DECKHAND, LITTLE SHELL woman, we don't have money for groceries. I'd
just well sleep on the boat. I got diapers to
buy. What can you do?
Twenty-two dollars a pound (453 grams), guys.

money in the bank, baby. Woo!
Another trip without our captain. Looks like
you're the captain now.
We've been fortunate. Caught fish.
We're holding the fort down while Greg's gone.
38
Greg let us take the boat out for one more trip
without him.
BILLION He needs to make sure that his arm is good and
HOLLINGSWORTH healed before he puts any strain on it, working
FIRST MATE, FISHIN' on the boat.
FRENZY
We made enough money. Greg can go to the
hospital now. We hear he's coming back.
Yeah, that's right. We've caught two fish
without him so far, but our last fish only got us
a little under three grand. And other boats are
only one fish behind us, so we really need to
land a big one to solidify our lead. We're ahead
of everybody right now. We got the lead,
we're just trying to hold on to it. We're just
trying to put another nail in the coffin, so we
can make it a little better. That's what we
want.
We're gonna get us one today.
Just need one dumb one, that's it.
01:39:37 TJ OTT:
Just give us the one dumb one. One dumb 73
incher (185 centimeters).
01:39:40 MIKE OTT:
Greg's doing great this season so far.
01:39:43 GRAPHICS ONSCREEN: MIKE OTT:
MIKE OTT He's got a great crew, and they charging.
DECKHAND, HOT TUNA They're on top of their game, so, you always
got to watch out for Greg.
01:39:50 TJ OTT:
I said right from the beginning, I didn't think
that Greg not being on board was gonna affect
that boat's catch ratios at all, and it didn't.
TJ OTT It just goes to show you that that boat is a
CAPTAIN, HOT TUNA weapon. The Fishin' Frenzy is definitely not
handicapped fishing without Greg, and that's
39
fine. I don't wanna beat them when they're
down, but I do wanna beat them. I get to focus
on what we're doing, and what we're catching,
and trying to get to the top of the leaderboard.
At the end of the day, that's what we're
gunning for. Give it a shot, that's all we can do.
Damn, the mark's right here.
Come on, baby!
01:40:22 TJ OTT:
Oh, we're marking 'em, boys! Here's the mark,
Bubby. You got some good marks. Pay
attention back there. Get ready. These are the
marks.
Look out behind you.
Hey, they're bouncing behind us. Look at 'em.
Look at 'em. They're live on that chain. About
6 or 7. There they are. They're gonna come
up. Woo, look at 'em jump, boys! They're
here.
There he is.
All right, got 'em on! Got 'em on!
Jacked up, baby!
Got one on. That's what I'm talking about.
Papa's gonna love us Papa's gonna love us tonight. Hot damn!
tonight.
Come on, baby!
Luck holds, we’ll get 'em.
01:40:59 MIKE OTT:
Come on, big boy. One more. Oh, we got a
bite!
We're on, we're on.
40
01:41:05 TJ OTT:
Pa-pow!
01:41:08 MIKE OTT:
We're on!
01:41:09 TJ OTT:
Pa-pow, baby!
I looked back. I saw the bite too.
01:41:12 MIKE OTT:
Nice.
01:41:13 TJ OTT:
How'd he look?
I just saw the big boil. It's definitely a keeper.
01:41:18 TJ OTT:
Oh, I hope we get this one.
Come on, big boy.
I like it. This is how I wanted the day to go. Set
out and get a bite. Hopefully, everything will
pan out, we can get him in the boat and get
home.
He's acting good. He's just swimming down
sea.
Okay, are you gaining at all?
A little bit. You just got to keep it tight.
All right.
Kind of perfect.
It's a good bite. Took a lot of line.
01:41:41 TJ OTT:
He's still there? Do you think he's still there?
01:41:46 MIKE OTT:
I don't know. Not much pressure, but a lot of
line out.
01:41:49 TJ OTT:
I don't think he's there.
41
WICKED Damn. I think we might have lost him.
TUNA
OUTER BANKS

I hope so.
01:42:04 TJ OTT:
Do you think he's still there?
01:42:05 MIKE OTT:
I don't know. Not much pressure, but a lot of
line out.
01:42:08 TJ OTT:
I don't think he's there. Dammit.
01:42:12 MIKE OTT:
That sucks. He's pulling now.
He's down pretty deep.
01:42:21 MIKE OTT:
Yeah.
01:42:22 TJ OTT:
He's still there, right?
He's ******* there.
01:42:24 MIKE OTT:
Yeah, yeah, he's, he's here. He's definitely still
here. Come on, baby! Come on, baby! Come
on, baby, please.
01:42:30 TJ OTT:
It's anybody's game right now, man. You know,
it's neck and neck. Top boat's only one fish
ahead of us, so this could potentially tie us with
that top boat, man. We'd love to have him on
board, baby. Come on, baby!
42
Still looking good?
Yeah, you just swing the boat around, I'll go
towards that corner, you can help me get in it.
Whenever you're ready. I'm coming around.
Careful, let's not lose him.
We got to get this fish. TJ is nipping at our
heels, I do not wanna lose this lead with Greg
out with a bum shoulder. There you go.
This is nuts. Come on, baby. All right.
Looking good?
Hold on. It went slack, hold on! Oh, ****,
we're in trouble here. I think he might have
come off. Hold on.
Did he come off?
I think so. I don't think he's there. Just felt like
the hook pulled out.
Get us another one.
01:43:21 TJ OTT:
I think this is definitely bigger than an 80 incher
(203 centimeters). This fish has got some
weight.
It's all about finesse right now.
01:43:26 TJ OTT:
It's kind of rough out right now, so we're just
taking our time with him. You don't wanna
overheat him in these situations. The last thing
we wanna do is run this fish over and break off
a line because we were just being, you know,
too aggressive with him. This fish is really
fighting hard, man. He's not giving up. But this
fish could tie us with Frenzy, so we need it bad.
43
The fish is probably a 500-pound (226
kilograms) fish. It could be worth anything
between five to seven thousand dollars.
01:43:46 TJ OTT:
We want 10 thousand. Tough little bugger.
Got to be getting close to the breakaway.
Got to be pretty close, that's for sure.
01:43:53 TJ OTT:
Yeah, he's circling.
Yeah, he's definitely circling. I can see him.
01:43:59 TJ OTT:
What you wanna do?
Just give me a minute.
01:44:00 MIKE OTT:
TJ, come around, uh.
Gonna come out!
01:44:02 MIKE OTT:
Just got to drop this end, the fish is out.
Get ready! Oh, he's gonna make one more
circle. All right, get ready.
01:44:09 MIKE OTT:
Got him right here, brother. There he is.
Throw it!
01:44:12 TJ OTT:
Got him. Get a gaff.
Bubby, my side. My side.
01:44:15 MIKE OTT:
Tail rope, TJ.
You got it, you got it.
01:44:18 TJ OTT:
Got him?
Woo! Hell yeah! That's what we're talking
about. Well, that's what we came for. That is a
huge fish. Yeah!
01:44:28 TJ OTT:
44
He's big, man. That's like a northern fish.
Right?
01:44:32 TJ OTT:
Gonna get a measurement on him. He's a
beautiful fish, man. Round like a meatball.
01:44:37 MIKE OTT:
Eighty seven-inch (220 centimeters) butterball.
Going home, baby!
01:44:40 TJ OTT:
Pa-pow!
Yeah!
01:44:49 TJ OTT:
Cinderella came to find her glass slipper again,
baby. Pa-pow! Scottso, nice to see you, baby!
Hey, what's up, guys? How you doing?
01:44:59 TJ OTT:
How you doing? Found a mark and we got him,
dude.
Wow, that's great.
01:45:02 TJ OTT:
Nice one, he looks like a pumpkin.
Nice and round.
01:45:03 TJ OTT:
It's gonna be a diamond.
All right, let's get him up. We'll check him out.
01:45:05 TJ OTT:
All right, buddy. This fish is beautiful. It's a big
fish and it's got great shape.
Wow, TJ. That thing is really round.
01:45:12 TJ OTT:
He is, right, bro?
Butterball.
01:45:14 TJ OTT:
Yeah, man.
45
TJ OTT If the quality inside is anything like it looks on
CAPTAIN, HOT TUNA the outside, this fish could put us on the top of
the leaderboard, no doubt. What do we got,
Scottso?
Four hundred and forty-four pounds (201
kilograms).
01:45:23 TJ OTT:
Perfect size, baby.
Nice.
01:45:25 TJ OTT:
Perfect size.
Nice fish.
01:45:26 TJ OTT:
Wanna get the, uh, the core sample, the tail
cut? See what we got?
Sounds good.
01:45:30 TJ OTT:
Our last fish got us 22 dollars per pound (453
grams). Anything close to that number for this
size fish, would make me a very happy man.
Nice looking, Scottso, I can see it from here,
man.
Yeah, it is. Really nice. Little bit of fat in the
minors, got a good color.
01:45:43 TJ OTT:
Let's check that core out.
All right. Let's check it out. Yup. There's no
burn there.
01:45:48 TJ OTT:
So, what do you think, Scottso?
Bottom line, 20 dollars a pound (453 grams).
444 LBS (201 Hey, now! Scottso!
KILOGRAMS)
X $20 /LB (453 GRAMS)
46
$8,880
Nice.
01:45:56 MIKE OTT:
Perfect.
01:45:57 TJ OTT:
Excellent, bro. I'm ecstatic to get such a good
price for our huge fish.
01:46:01 MIKE OTT:
Take care, Scotty.
01:46:01 TJ OTT:
Thanks, Scotty.
All right, guys. See ya.
01:46:03 TJ OTT:
Don't underestimate the Hot Tuna this season
because we're coming for the title.
01:46:07 MIKE OTT:
We are on fire.

01:46:36 CREDITS
Them away with your singing.
It's true, we haven't marked since I've been
47
singing. Maybe it's your turn.
Nope. No.
I am epically cool.
Don't say epic, that negates it.
I am epically cool because I can use epically and
cool in the same sentence.
Oh, you're embarrassing me.
Well, don't worry, it's not like millions of
people are gonna watch on TV or nothing.
