Synopsis

In the desolate outreaches of Bristol Bay, Alaska, the most competitive fishing season on Earth takes place throughout four short weeks. 1,800 captains and their crews draw the battle lines to help save Alaska's ecosystem by reeling in a massive sockeye salmon payday. With potential fortune swimming just below the surface, five captains prepare to battle the unforgiving bay, the battering ram of boats jockeying for position and the law, which strictly monitors the season with recon choppers and police squads. On the bay, fishing for the nearly 44 million salmon is necessary for the environment, and arm of the law is long, tempers are short and every single decision is the difference between drawing a huge income and settling for pennies.

Reviews

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
fishonforlife This show is a lot of fun. Really enjoy it. Hope to see more episodes in the future. Love watching the crews work and play. Try it out! You won't be disappointed. My favorite captains are Leonard and Tom. They are really funny and make the show more entertaining to me. It is a truly unique fishing style. I hope that the show focuses more on getting to know the captains and crews next season. I would like to know the back story behind each boat. I think that would make the show more interesting to watch and make the audience feel more connected to it. But, still want the fun and action included, too. I want it all. A lot of my friends had fun watching the show as well. It was a good time. A lot like Deadliest Catch, but with salmon.
