FULL EPISODE Swords: Life on the Line Season 1, Episode 7. Swords: Life on the Line documents the events aboard New England fishing boats fishing for Swordfish. #swordslifeontheline #fullepisode
All it takes in a bad storm is the engine to cut out. Then you go beam on and in a big sea it would be like riding in a washing machine drum. These boats are not submarines. Just an engine stall is all it takes. Every guy who goes out knows the risks. The best thing people can do is buy more, and pay more for fish, knowing what it costs crews and families. $5k for a long trip is pathetic, really. These guys work 24hrs a day out there, in danger even in their bunks.
That's disgusting throwing those small dead swordfish back. I know it's a legal requirement same as here in Australia with blue and black marlin. But why can't fisheries see throwing back dead fish is just a waste
@@derekwalter3875 🤣🤣Bet the Canadian fish inspectors and monitors that have to be present at the wharf each time a boat unloads it's catch will tell you different !! The Captains are not going to risk a big fine or lose their CATCH for a few small swords..
Guys like Dave suck on a trip,you cant make them happy no matter what.Ive been fishing charter/commercial for 37 seasons and this guy is not built for this mentally or physically.
