Deadliest Catch
Forty-foot waves, 700 pound crab pots, freezing temperatures and your mortality staring you in the face…it's all in a day's work for these modern day prospectors. During each episode we will watch crews race to meet their quota and make it home safely.
Season 22
Sig's crew races to jettison pots and repair a flooding compartment below deck. Rick radios Johnathan to help hide his honey hole, but when Jake spots the Time Bandit's unusual movements, he calls Rick's bluff and puts the Cornelia Marie on hot fishing.
As Jake sets gear in heavy seas, a painful skin infection spreads among the Cornelia Marie crew. Sig cleverly sets in a col between two storms, but pays a price when he returns to haul. As the ice line overruns 22 of his pots, Rick faces a $100K loss.
On the Time Bandit, Johnathan delegates dentistry duties when his brother Neal's dental implants fail far out to sea. Battling 25-foot waves, Keith leans heavily on his co-captain Monte. Rick must reverse course after his greenhorn suffers a head injury.
As 25-foot breakers pound the fleet, critical systems fail at the worst possible time. Sig's engine runs wild, Jake loses power, John's crane cracks and Rick must replace a lackluster deckhand, opening the door for the return of a favorite greenhorn.
As the season nears its end, tragedy strikes on the Aleutian Lady when greenhorn Todd Meadows falls overboard. As Captain Rick and the crew fight to save their crewmate, the true stakes of fishing on the Bering Sea hit home for everyone across the fleet.
