Mandy’s ass in the jeans early & the leggings late did not suck, however. 

True story

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Official season premiere is next Tuesday, the 19th, but there’s 3 hours of something tomorrow night. 

I’m sure it’s an hour recap, hour of fake offseason filler, then the stupid fucking forced Bloodline shit. Apparently Harris finds another brother. 

[Texzilla58 4732]

Evidently they lose red crab season so have to find other shit to do.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Shit, I liked tonight’s premiere. Fat Mandy, Sean’s back, very little Keith, don’t care about new guy. Let’s ride. 

[Nole-4-Life 802]

I liked it too. Some new stuff. Dungeoness. Longlining. Cod Fishing. Sig in Norway.

I liked the premiere. Good to see Sean back. He always struck me as the most competent of the young captains. 

[billfromlaketravis 11448]

It’s hard to tell under the big coat, but the young blonde lady on the Staalbas has to be the best looking deckhand in the history of fishing. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

And fuck the Patricia Crush, or whatever the fuck it’s called. Not great when the fucking TV guy has to take charge. 

Spoiler

And a triple-fuck to Discovery for forcing Bloodline. I’ll shut up about that for at least a little while, maybe.

Pretty shitty safety record on the Patricia Lee. And that’s saying something on Deadliest Catch. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

The producer was fucking shocked how stupid he was.

I didn’t misspell the ship’s name on accident.

Looks like 4 guys on that boat have been crushed by pots over the past 5 years. It's shocking Discovery is using that guy's dangerous boat for ratings. 

[Pato del Muerto 52487]

They need more deadly to go with all the catch.

The layout of the deck looked all f'd up. The Captain made a huge mistake not heading straight to Dutch and the Coasties. Not sure how long he sailed in the wrong direction, but every minute was 2 minutes wasted.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Well, look who you quoted though. Ace is like the old drunk Buckeye of this thread, he claims to ‘hate’ the show, but will never stay away.

It's a scripted show entirely now basically and I FF through most of it, but I enjoy fishing so will do that until the end (which should've been 11 seasons ago).

A total moron. What a shitty captain. I wouldn’t be surprised if the rest of the crew mutinies and sends him to the bottom in a crab pot.

Fucking Bloodline, now with a lost brother. And dopehead jailbird other brother cleaning up the CM at home. My question: their “contract” calls for 3k pound a week on the mainland. So they’re in Hawaii about 6 weeks. What bigtime purveyor or restaurant changes suppliers for six weeks and then skates elsewhere? Complete bullshit.

[billfromlaketravis 11448]

Did they disclose the Patricia Lee deckhand’s injury? A broken pelvis is not a he’ll be fine diagnosis. 

[Texzilla58 4732]

The whole Sig in Norway thing has to be part of a bigger deal. It would have been easier to send the Northwestern to hunt golden crab, or fish cod, or dungeness down south. And he’d be home for Mandy. I’m sure the NW is working cod which is it’s usual role when not crabbing.

It’s a new fishery for red crab in Norway. That boat was already being readied. I’m wondering if it’s part of a launch of a Discovery version of the show for Europe. It’s so staged; it’s like the Brady Bunch or Duck Dynasty going to Hawaii.

It’s all fake. The NW was fishing - the child molester was running it. Sig was in Norway for probably 2 weeks tops.

Who is the child molester?

Edgar.  The one who shall not be named on Discovery even though he's still on the boat.

[Texzilla58 4732]

Edgar pled guilty in 2018 to sexually assaulting a 16 year old girl. He got a year probated jail sentence and had to go to sexual deviancy classes, and paid a $1300 fine.

[Lat22 4010]

Effectively banning him from ever appearing on the show again. Guarantee you he’s still fishing on the Northwestern. 

[billfromlaketravis 11448]

The Norway narrative is well, goofy as hell. Bill’s ship looks smaller than most wakeboarding rigs on Lake Travis. 
 

Sig’s vessel might be worse. Shitty crane/wench and a hot blonde deckhand jump shooting crabs into the tank. 
 

It feels like some staged bullshit to set up a Sig and Wild Bill Norwegian Bloodlines POS show. 

The production value sucks, but watch the early seasons. They at least attempt to make a documentary.

I think Sig only skippers on the show these days. Edgar is probably still skippering in relief or in cod season. I don’t think Mandy has taken her out alone yet, right?

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Dude, Edgar is still on the NW, that has been known for seasons.

 

Captain of the Patricia Crush loves his camera time WAY too much. 

[billfromlaketravis 11448]

Pretty sure Sig got a spin off show as mentioned upthread. He’s putting up with a lot of shit and not catching crab. 
 

The blonde on the Stalbas is fire, but appears to be completely worthless of deck. Who’s daughter is she? 
 

 

 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Bill’s little boat is funny.

Couple weeks without Keith was fun. 

[Texzilla58 4732]

Learned something last night on the Norway deal. Russian red crab is considered an invasive species and there is no limit on them or season. Is Sig looking to build a new part of the family business? If you can fish red crab 24/7/365 no quotas vs a diminishing fishery in Alaska. He can own boats there without actually skippering them.

I think Bill is there for comic relief in that dinghy.

[Pato del Muerto 52487]

I haven’t watched yet as I prefer to binge this show, but bill is a traveling clown for disco. The way he talks about boat payments, I assume he’s leveraged pretty good and can’t afford to turn down an extra dollar. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

You haven’t watched yet, but you’re posting? That’s fucking stupid even by your standards. And your standards are fucking low. Dumb mother fucker. 

[billfromlaketravis 11448]

So… WTF happened to this show? 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Being stuck in that little hole with water gushing sure didn’t look fun for Jake. 

[RPM 26318]

Saga is a worn out POS.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Wonder what happened to the Brenna A, or did Sean just rename it?

He still owns it - he has multiple boats now. 

[Texzilla58 4732]

He still owns it - he has multiple boats now. 

I want to say he bought a bigger boat at the end of a season a few years back and has been building the empire since. I enjoyed his time but I think he knew he had to either be a TV personality or run a big fishing business.

Captain Squash at it again. 

Bill’s cute little pots are still funny. 

Way too much Phil, we know he’s fucking dead.

I’m surprised Capn Phil hasn’t been nominated for sainthood by now. Seems like he didn’t even have to use pots; crabs just jumped into the boat in droves.

Bill seems to be their bitch. Need you to go to Russia and nearly get arrested. Go to Norway. Drive the summer bay which appears to be wanting to be a submarine.

[ss13 1832]

Pretty good episode. 

 

I like Sean, but enough with the goddamn dead dad shit. We fucking know. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

This week was fun, mostly Jake & Sean, no olds. 

[Nole-4-Life 802]

Jake has grown into a damn good captain. Recovering his pots was impressive.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Ace will be pissed this season doesn’t suck.

It helps when he doesn't spend most of the day yelling like a crazy person at his crew.

I quite watching when Mandy was shown as being the braintrust for Sig to go to Norway. Yeah, ok. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Sweet, bet you didn’t though.

We know bro, it’s cool. 

[billfromlaketravis 11448]

Do they expect the red king crab fishery to open next year or is it too early to tell? 

[kevwun 15769]

It's most likely going to be a multi-year closure I believe.
