Wicked Tuna

An Atlantic Ocean winter storm system whips up rough seas, and ices in the local harbor, forcing northern and southern captains to take huge risks to fish in dangerous conditions for their big money Bluefin Tuna catch.

In North Carolina’s Outer Banks fishing ground, only half of the Bluefin tuna quota is left to catch, so every boat is fighting for their share before the season closes.

As breakdowns and bad luck plague various boats in theOuter Banks’ Bluefin tunafleet, it remains to be seen if a Northern boat will rise to the top of the leaderboard for the first time.
