Deadliest Catch

The crab-fishing fleet heads out for another season.

The Time Bandit pulls a prank; after only 48 hours, one Wizard greenhorn starts to fall apart.

A mechanical breakdown causes the Northwestern's Edgar to make a dangerous repair; Sig loses his temper over questionable counting; Phil's poor health affects the crew on the Cornelia Marie.

Sig and Edgar have a last-man-standing contest to see who can fish longer without sleeping; a brush with death.

Tempers flare aboard the Wizard and the Northwestern.

With a few weeks left in king crab season, the fate of every deckhand's paycheck sits squarely on his captain's shoulders.

The Cornelia Marie may lose its captain for good; crew mistakes aboard the Northwestern could be costly.

A deck accident slows down the Northwestern; the Cornelia Marie experiences a power outage; the North American does a "Hail Mary" play.

A dual storm system hampers the beginning of opilio crab season.

A routine Coast Guard rescue becomes a battle against nature; the Cornelia Marie heads to land for repairs; fatigue is causing mistakes on the Northwestern.

Johnathan joins the deck crew on the Time Bandit and promptly gets injured; the Northwestern crew irritates Sig; the North American greenhorn is hazed.

Storm waves tear up the decks of the Early Dawn, North American and Northwestern; on the Cornelia Marie, Phil injures his ribs.

Murray struggles to take over the Cornelia Maria; the Northwestern strains its crane, destabilizing the ship; Wizard springs a leak; greenhorn Moi gets the ax.

The Northwestern fights the ice pack; the Wizard sets off with tempers flaring and a new greenhorn; Phil's future on the Cornelia Marie is questionable.

The Arctic ice pack descends as the fleet makes its final push.

Battling ice and equipment issues, the captains race to catch the last of their remaining quotas.
