00:00EAST HARBOR HEROES
00:06Previously on EAST HARBOR HEROES
00:09We've landed 12 so far.
00:11We've got another one to try to catch today.
00:13Ron Curtis got his tuna season off to a roaring start.
00:17He's a big boy, he's a big boy.
00:21TARACAS 905 is ending climb for 3,500 feet.
00:24Roger.
00:25The 103 squadron sharpened their skills over the North Atlantic.
00:29It's a massive area that we're responsible for.
00:32Our job is to bring people back home,
00:34and people know that we'll go out there and we'll search for them.
00:38Is he going to throw it?
00:39Yeah.
00:40And the Brake family went out searching for signs of new crab.
00:43Don, first pack down!
00:49Never underestimate the ocean.
00:51Be careful now, bud.
00:52You always gotta be watching that, right?
00:54TARACAS 905 is ending climb.
00:56You can always expect that there's something unexpected that's gonna happen.
01:00We gotta get a move on.
01:02Okay, we're getting to the ballpark now.
01:04A bit challenging on times, no doubt about that.
01:06Boat to them, crews are ready, and whatever it takes.
01:09These are the East Harbor heroes.
01:11The middle of the night on the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
01:23And the Brake family are steaming offshore on a halibut trip.
01:26And it's already a frenzy on board.
01:29It's a new brain, huh?
01:30I'm starting to see.
01:32I'm staying north.
01:33This should be good.
01:34Holy sugar.
01:35Oh, I hate my tongue, man.
01:37It's about how you said that.
01:38They're headed 30 miles out in hopes of filling a 3,200 pound quota,
01:44and scheduled to expire in a few days.
01:46Just watch what you're doing when I need.
01:48Don't stick it in nobody or yourself.
01:50But in this weather, it won't be easy.
02:14Given the rough conditions, the brakes requested an extension or switch from DFO.
02:20The Department of Fisheries and Oceans.
02:50Those are at least 207 hooks.
02:54Each bucket has over 200 hooks to bait with fresh mackerel, and the two trawls they'll send out to sea will have 1,000.
03:00Is that dim?
03:01Yeah.
03:02Do you like standing up?
03:04I've got to recount them now.
03:08We'll just make sure that there's 200 in the one tray.
03:11Like I said, we normally do this into the wharf.
03:17We're nice and calm.
03:18We're gonna rock and roll and try to hold on bait at the same time.
03:22You getting sick?
03:23What?
03:24You getting sick?
03:25I broke a couple times looking good.
03:27Did we try it off?
03:28No, I said I will.
03:30I will.
03:35While the brakes battle rough seas, 300 miles north in Happy Valley Goose Bay, Labrador.
03:44Simulated, simulated, simulated.
03:46One bill alert.
03:47One bill alert.
03:48The RCAF's 444 Squadron are running an emergency training exercise.
03:53What do we got?
03:54Two CF-18 returning from the training PTA.
03:58Louettes 1-2 declared an emergency.
04:01One single sold on board.
04:03Okay, let's start with a sector search.
04:06We'll go out to a mile and look for signs of the wreckage.
04:08My name is Major Erin Pratt.
04:10I am the commanding officer of 444 Combat Support Squadron located here in beautiful Happy Valley Goose Bay, Labrador.
04:19444 Squadron's primary task is responding to incidents that occur from military flying operations at 5-wing Goose Bay.
04:26A base where air forces from around the world come to train on account of Labrador's vast, rugged and remote landscape.
04:33Ready? Ready.
04:35The squadron also supports the Royal Canadian Air Force's Eastern Search and Rescue Region.
04:40An area of almost 2 million square miles that receives the most distressed calls of any region of Canada.
04:48Just gonna send her down.
04:52The terrain here is very challenging. The weather is very dynamic.
04:55So it's incredibly important for us to constantly be honing these skills so that we're very responsive when the time comes.
05:01We've got maps, preps, search patterns gonna be prepped in the aircraft. Flight plan's already been filed.
05:05Questions?
05:06Questions.
05:07Let's roll.
05:08Let's roll.
05:09This mission is going to be a demonstration of our ability to respond to a crashed jet pilot.
05:14One that has ejected from their machine.
05:16And we're going to go look for them and pick them up.
05:19Major Pratt and her crew fly CH-146 Griffin helicopters, which are agile and multi-purposed, perfect for the wide range of functions the squadron needs to perform.
05:30I will be the aircraft commander.
05:33First officer today will be Captain Rob Hannum.
05:36The flight engineer will be Sergeant Curtis Fox.
05:38The medical technician will be Sergeant Erwin Dubois.
05:41I'll go in first. I'll be closer to the door.
05:44Go with pen kit.
05:45Can you come in with O2 and a rescue sling?
05:49I am a medical technician specialized in the combat support squadron flights.
05:55Today the scenario is a mock-up of our primary mission, which is the recovery of an ejected pilot.
06:00Okay, let's go.
06:02It is completely a team effort.
06:04So everybody has a role to play and everybody works as a team.
06:07Hang on, it's 530 just to hit starters here.
06:12We're going to be training the local area next two hours.
06:14We try to run training operations at least every single working day of the week.
06:19It's going to be one down to F-18 looking for smoke, looking for fire, looking for an orange chute.
06:25Clear right.
06:26Clear above.
06:27I didn't find a house.
06:28I didn't find a house.
06:29I didn't find a house.
06:30I didn't find a house.
06:31I didn't find a house.
06:32I didn't find a house.
06:33I didn't find a house.
06:3480 torque.
06:3590.
06:36Air speed's live your side.
06:37I didn't find a house close.
06:38While Major Pratt leads her team's training mission, 500 miles south, in Foxtrap...
06:50Excited to do some learning today?
06:52Yeah, absolutely.
06:53Been a while since we were in the classroom.
06:56The crew of the OSSC Mariner are on land this week at the Offshore Safety and Survival Center.
07:01High home, high home.
07:03Back to school I go.
07:06Last time I've done this course was probably nine years ago.
07:10Probably 15 years ago now since I've done it.
07:13I've done a course in 95 and I've done the course again in 2020, so...
07:18The boys are here for the OSSC's Domestic Vessel Safety, or DVS, training course.
07:25It's a refresher...
07:27For most.
07:28My first time.
07:30It's for safety and everybody that's on the water should have this.
07:35It'll be good to just go through it again.
07:37Alrighty.
07:38We're here for the DVS.
07:40Yeah.
07:41I'm not really nervous, it's just...
07:44I'm not tore up over a classroom.
07:46No, you are tore up over a classroom.
07:51While the crew gets busy at their desks, their skipper's getting fitted for some fire training gear.
07:56Try counting.
07:58One, two, three.
08:00Courses like this, I mean, this brings down the chaos level aboard a vessel or a fishing vessel when a situation arises.
08:08The center was founded in the wake of Newfoundland's deadliest offshore disaster, the tragic sinking of the Ocean Ranger oil rig in 1982.
08:18Back in St. John's, flags flew at half-mast as a community mourned, and the search continued for explanations of what had happened.
08:25The loss of all 84 crew members aboard the Ocean Ranger forged the OSSC's core mission.
08:32To keep those who work on the water safe and ready.
08:38You can take your mask off.
08:40And courses like this, I mean, just drives it home, what you're doing each and every day.
08:45And when it comes to safety here, nothing is spared.
08:48Here you go.
08:50So I'm after showering already this morning now.
08:54I get here at school and I'm not getting the right seal on my mask for the VA.
09:00So apparently I gotta go shave my goatee.
09:04So you might see a different Ron in a half an hour or so.
09:10Oh man, it's been years.
09:12This is gonna be funny.
09:17I'm getting rid of all the gray anyway.
09:19Wait till I show off the boys, they'll get a kick out of this.
09:31Back aboard the Lady Geneva, the Brake family drops their first halibut line.
09:37We're in.
09:38We're in.
09:39We're in.
09:40We'll be around the hooks and we'll have lots trawling.
09:45Each trawler setting is about 9,000 feet long and holds 500 hooks.
09:54Three fathom or 18 feet apart.
09:56I got the clean and easy job.
10:09They get the cold and the harder one.
10:13Pretty tedious and dangerous work that is.
10:19Gets one of those caught in your hand, you can go overboard pretty quick.
10:34We were off like, what?
10:3526 miles.
10:3626 miles offshore.
10:37So it was a bigger race.
10:42But you gotta take risks in order to get the reward.
10:46Okay, it's gone.
11:03About 30 miles from Trout River on the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
11:06Yeah.
11:07He got it.
11:08You got a win, Sean?
11:10The Brake family is hauling their first halibut line from a depth of about 600 feet.
11:16I need a few minutes for the boilers.
11:17I'm not talking very bad.
11:18Nah, this time of year, they're usually out in this depth of water.
11:24Can't lose none of them fish.
11:25We need every one.
11:28The Brakes have 3,200 pounds to catch on a quota that's about to expire.
11:35Every minute and every hook counts.
11:38Well, that's not, that's not looking very promising.
11:50Cadfish.
11:51Supper.
11:52It didn't look good.
11:53Pretty gloomy.
11:54The hooks was coming up back with the bait on it and no fish on it.
12:08No halibut.
12:09A lot of blanks.
12:10A lot of blanks, yeah.
12:11A lot of blanks.
12:12A lot of blanks, yeah.
12:14We've never had it this bad.
12:22Is he hit or miss game, right?
12:24I don't know if he's big enough or not.
12:29Yes.
12:30Just one measly little fish.
12:35When your catch is good, the money is good, and that motivates you.
12:40If your catches are low, everybody's spirits drops.
12:44If you've got nothing, that means everyone across the board got nothing.
12:47See that!
13:02Another one deer coming in there?
13:05Oh, God, fish.
13:08Filled our hopes up for nothing.
13:10for nothing in goose bay labrador visual smoke the royal canadian air force's triple four squadron
13:26are in deep on an intense training mission yeah roger i see the pilot's waving at me
13:33the scenario involves an ejected pilot that the unit needs to rescue sequence in will be two
13:39singles followed by a circuit expect the strokes as the team leader of the mission i will be
13:45coordinating with the aircraft captain major pratt with entering my side of the mission which
13:51is where i want to insert with my team recovery will be brief on the ground i check one hour and
13:5730 minutes for pickup it's vital for us to train exercises like this because we can be called to
14:04respond with a moment's notice from the ejection to hitting the ground we want to eliminate as much
14:11time as possible we want to simulate the mission as close to real as we can sort of a train like
14:31your fight idea right parade zero alpha affirmative wait for the right alpha a for we'll go
14:41hello sir can you hear me yeah all right we're gonna get you out of here okay so stokes on your
14:48position over there whenever you can yeah yeah and then get the clamshell out of it yeah oh watch your
14:54head sir there we go as a team leader i'm getting all the input from my patient and all my different
15:00team members i'm going to need to soak in five minutes at my location can you take a deep breath
15:08for me all right that's good and down okay perfect so it's a great scenario though all the things that
15:15at once are happening that we have to play on and and and do it clear the hoist you are clear
15:20okay what's going out four three two one stokes on the ground
15:35500 miles southeast in st john's
15:40hey i'm dan sweeney with kraken robotic systems we are a marine technology company headquartered here
15:46in newfoundland canada the core of kraken's operation is the catfish sonar system which maps
15:52parts of the seabed that would otherwise be impossible to capture the primary application
15:57for this technology is in military and defense specifically around finding explosives on the
16:02seabed that could do harm to naval or civilian vessels the technology helps to uncover modern day
16:08underwater threats as well as undetonated explosives dating as far back as the first world war
16:16over here is where you see our quality assurance test area we do test all our equipment in a wet
16:20environment before we send it out to the customers today dan and his team are getting the system ready
16:27for a final test run on the open water our clients are trying to put this type of thing into service
16:34we make sure that they can do things like maintain critical shipping lanes and port and harbor security
16:39shipping goods by sea is a key component of global trade today here in newfoundland more than half of
16:45all goods arrive by boat in the st lawrence seaway alone nearly 135 million tons of cargo are moved each year
16:57everybody's working together to come up with a solution to get this product out the door
17:02in a safe and efficient way typically this would sit on the back of a vessel and we would launch over
17:07overboard into the sea
17:15having newfoundlanders employed as our production team it gives us access to a deep pool of very
17:21knowledgeable and resourceful people problem solving is kind of ingrained in the culture here in newfoundland
17:25we're used to finding solutions that require you to think outside the box so we're doing things like
17:30range of motion tests we're doing integrity checks on the tow cable and then my team will take that
17:35to nova scotia install it on our vessel and make sure it does what it needs to do in a real world
17:39environment
17:49there's a halibut there
17:52halibut jenny jenny jenny down to their last trawl the brake family's fortune has finally turned
17:58all of them just like good size nice ones they're a money fish yeah
18:17relieve stress it always works out in the end
18:20our first trial we didn't end up with very many halibut it was bare minimal yeah the next one
18:27we held up and they kept coming and it was like yes finally finally hit them we finally got them
18:36how many was there is it 12. is it 12. yeah 12. when he comes he comes good i told him
18:45all right there's a lot of buttons here to miss
18:50we only have another one
18:52you don't have your prayers no they wouldn't unless we ain't got to over 12.
18:57what do we want to find complete with southbound cabin area cabin area secure a few miles outside
19:09goose bay labrador what's your first name sam sam med techs from the triple four squadron are running
19:15a true-to-life training scenario he has an unstable pelvis dislocated shoulder i think it's probably a
19:20broken busted femur look we're gonna put the stokes right here and we'll have a nice tension on the uh
19:26the outside once the board is loaded up we'll be able to make our way to the extraction point
19:35all right sam on three one two three
19:43we cannot actually hoist him alive on a training mission so we're gonna put a mannequin in it
19:50just so we can move on with the simulation
19:53i'm captain sam connors with triple four squadron i was playing a down fighter pilot who's ejected
20:00close to the goose bay air base here training's idle because if we don't do these training scenarios
20:07well then we wouldn't be ready for the uh the real life thing would we as close to real as we can get
20:12us vapor rate zero star ground are ready for extraction there's an element of risk in everything that we do
20:18if we were to not take a risk we wouldn't get out of bed in the morning and i work with a bunch of
20:24people who it's their life's mandate to get out of bed and put their uniform on and serve
20:29so they went really well i'm very proud of my crew
20:53it's just a demonstration that we continue to do a really good job every single time we go out and
20:59do this work
21:04after hauling water for most of the day the brake family finally hit pay dirt on their final trawl
21:17the brakes of steam nearly 30 miles
21:47offshore to catch halibut the largest flat fish in the world
21:53this line of hooks has saved their day but they need at least another 20 to reach their quota
22:00halibut fishing is hard like when you actually get fish coming in back to back because they're
22:07they're wild like and they're big and they're strong they are strong they got a lot of kick to
22:14them yeah they're spunky yeah it's a rush and there's a lot of work to it but it's paycheck time
22:21so we've got 95 fish all together we pretty much got our quota for this one trial
22:28all the way up that way why did jesus and snap our eye know where you going this way yep
22:34okay so your motivation is a lot higher when your catch is higher because you want more when you know
22:46the catch is there that you're going to get more so move changes big time when you get everybody's happy
22:52then when the fish is coming yeah that's good fishing that is that's an excellent fish
23:04all right okay let's go this way we've still got a busy day
23:10at the offshore safety and survival center in foxtrap the crew from the osc mariner continue to train up
23:17their marine emergency skills let's go inside well we got them all here today we got dino and bob and
23:23luke and tom the guys you know they know what to do in different situations but this is more or less
23:28just keeping it fresh in their minds and while the crew gets settled their captain is off to the fire
23:38field for live training
23:46everybody ready ready ready
23:51the goal of this exercise is for seamen like ron to better understand fire behavior
23:56so they can prevent or fight one on their boats
23:59all the way open all the way open that's critical critical worst case scenario you got
24:04a fire on board your boat and you're asking yourself two questions can we fight the fire and get it
24:10out or have we got an abandoned ship side to side where's the fire to what caused the fire and what can
24:17we do to put that fire out and if we can't put it out overboard we go come down a little bit
24:25come down a little bit come down all right there you are right there and i think it's great i mean
24:30you know just to bring it alive in your mind and seeing it in action advanced one step now
24:36these exercises aren't hypothetical dozens of fire occur on fishing vessels every year in newfoundland
24:43the report of fire in the engine room you're attacking the fire
24:47and it's training like this that helps crews survive
24:50i got a newfound respect for our volunteer fire department
25:09after a down then up day of halibut fishing the brakes are headed into port
25:14we're gonna tag everyone now so he'll measure it now and josie'll figure out weights
25:20there are 98 halibut to tag to hit their quota they need to average around 35 pounds each
25:38that's over seven thousand dollars worth of halibut that they're missing if we go over our quota they
25:57take it from us but if we don't get it we don't get it they're not giving it back to us so you kind of
26:04push yourself even though you kind of don't want to who doesn't go to work for a paycheck
26:20right like everybody goes to work for a paycheck so we're obviously going to
26:25take a risk to take a risk to go out put yourself in danger well there's got to be big ones down there
26:47well i'd like to get more votes before i let her go after a few hours of sleep the brake family are
26:52heading back out to sea we're heading out to our second day now of our halibut fishery we haven't
27:03had very good weather we ended up with 98 fish the first day that we went out we're heading out closer
27:10to home because the weather just doesn't want to cooperate so hope all goes well for us and we
27:14catch the rest of our quota the curtain is closing on their season and there's still seven thousand
27:20dollars left on the table bad weather or not this is their last chance to get it it's great to get
27:27all of our fish because that's a good paycheck so we're hoping to get it all with any luck okay ready
27:35get in on the back not you not you all in now
27:52in dartmouth cove across the harbor from halifax nova scotia kraken robotics catfish sonar system has
27:59arrived from newfoundland chief technology officer dave shea is overseeing the final sea trials before
28:06it ships out to a client overseas so you can see there's a number of different components for the
28:11alars we have our electric winch if the catfish says i need to get deeper to get closer to the seabed
28:16it can actually command the winch pay out more cable all right bridge let me know once you have a fixed
28:21heading i'll go for a launch the catfish takes a dive in nearby bedford basin it's been told go down
28:36to 20 meter depth so it's starting to pay out cable it'll start turning on all of its sonars
28:41and it'll be pinging off the sea floor the whole time as it moves along the catfish maps large sections
28:48of the bottom with remarkable clarity uh we can bring it up to six knots so now we're starting to see
29:02some sonar data we can see all the junk on the seabed so this is probably a storage box for something
29:10these are probably tires uh that have fallen off of a vessel somewhere yeah that's the advantage of the
29:17synthetic aperture sonar we get that kind of resolution and it doesn't matter whether we're
29:2110 meters away or 200 meters away we get the same same resolution image
29:28this amazing piece of technology allows authorities at home and abroad
29:33to keep busy harbors and critical shipping lanes safe and operating
29:38we're going to recover the catfish so the winch will start pulling in
29:43all right going for recovery successful day of testing
29:47so next up for this system we're going to be prepping it for shipment down to our customer
29:58integrating it onto their vessel and completing sea trials in their country with the navy
30:08over in foxtrap at the offshore safety and survival center
30:11from a sitting position put your feet in the soup ron's crew from the osc mariner all right dip all the way
30:20up are set for water training in immersion suits
30:31over 5000 offshore personnel come to the ossc every year and with good reason all right go for a swim the number
30:40of marine emergencies in newfoundland is twice the national average fishing is is very dangerous
30:48once you leave the good sea you don't know what's going to happen you're in all kinds of rough weather
30:58if a distress comes in or goes it we get sent a distress out and if you haven't got this training well
31:04it could be a lot of confusion you can't hesitate when the order is given to abandon them it's an order
31:17roll over 360 come on the life rafting emergency suits is probably probably one of the most important
31:24things knowing what to do in an emergency situation uh just increases your uh your chances of survival
31:34for ron's crew the dangers at sea are still fresh in their minds
31:41two years ago hunting redfish on the grand banks there was a storm
31:46in the night time like it always happens and the stabilizer finn let go
31:56we were in a situation where we had to put out a mayday sent you coast guard radio osc mariner
32:02so for a few hours there it was a bit frightening
32:07oh my we were ready to abandon ship if we had to at that time
32:11and we were bouncing ideas and back and forth to what could be done in quick order to uh get the
32:20situation under control
32:24okay who's next you back in the pool first mate dino is face to face with a lifelong fear and that's
32:33horrible good to the next jump oh i just don't like water
32:41i was i i never could swim or whatever all right stand out to the edge
32:47all right all right you ready step i mean you got a lot of fishermen that don't know how to swim
32:53you got a lot of fishermen that might have that fear of water for some given reason right
33:00it's something that he don't like doing but he knows that he got to do like i said if the boat is
33:04sinking i'd like to be able to walk off walk off and get in the water not jump
33:11if i got to get in the water i'll get in the water knowing how to swim goes a long ways but i mean
33:23with that emergent suit on all you need to know how to do is uh kick your feet and flap your arms
33:27good job good job good job dino good job
33:50captain ron
33:51skipper ron curtis is on the open water for his final training exercise we're here at the marine
33:57institute facility in uh holy root we're going to be launching some different life rafts different
34:02scenarios and things like that you're going to order ron good to go
34:08all right well i'm going to get you to do now pick up a heading of 180 steer to the south food
34:13the captain and his crew have been put through their paces here at the training center
34:16they've run through multiple critical scenarios from firefighting to water exercises evacuations
34:24to survival protocols
34:28hey buddy i got him
34:32here you go eight foot one you on the air copy over this is rescue one we brought the uh the survivor
34:38on board roger roger i'm sure now when i go aboard the osc merinder all the boys are going to have
34:44all these recommendations let's do this let's try this let's make this a little bit safer yeah
34:50so right now we're getting ready to do a transfer from rescue boat one to lifeboat one
34:56emergencies like this the transfer of a person between rescue boats are more likely to happen
35:01far offshore where ron and his crew typically fish and being prepared for the possibility is
35:07what training's all about a little bit more a little bit more when the emergency is happening
35:12it's not the time to learn how to use a piece of equipment
35:18all right all on board
35:26all right nice and easy now see we're coming
35:33i think now that they're prepared and well prepared like we'll have discussions now when fishing starts
35:38again this year and what to do and how to make uh situations a bit safer for us when we're out on
35:44the water
35:52over 500 miles northwest in goose bay
35:56so you guys have a full crew in there i do i have a full crew and a serviceable aircraft what can i
36:00do for you triple four commanding officer major aaron pratt is mobilizing her crew
36:07we just received word from joint rescue coordinator center in halifax that there is a potential for a
36:12medevac on the coast so they've asked us to get ready my medtech just showed up so i'm going to relate
36:17some of the information to him okay as a unit capable of conducting search and rescue triple four
36:25squadron are the closest to the patient's remote location and best able to respond quickly
36:32we are tasked it's go time
36:41when you serve such a vast area with remote communities every mission requires precise
36:46planning we're planning on getting some fuel as well because we don't quite have enough fuel to go out and
36:50come back aircraft analysis please uh we have aircraft 480 out of spot two fuel it will be 2150
36:58second start checks of the day config is full start capability any questions good to go okay we're good
37:09we go
37:20night has fallen in trout river the break family are back from a second day of halibut fishing
37:34it was rough today it was so rough conditions forced them to try their luck closer to shore
37:41and then only for two fish we left because we're on a time crunch the weather wasn't really the best but
37:51we had to do it because as of now we only had two days to catch our the rest of our quota at least the two
37:59fish they caught were 100 pounders okay 94 pound yeah 94. well we the hollow butt shifts off in deeper
38:10water in the fall of the year so we did try one in close to home we had two hollow butt it was just a
38:18gamble because we never had the weather to go but what the brakes struggle with in terms of conditions
38:24this time of year they make up for in other ways hollow butt in the fall is a much longer process than
38:31it is in the summer big time take the risk to get the reward we benefit it in the end because it was
38:37a higher price for us they landed just shy of three thousand pounds not quite their quota but at over
38:45ten dollars a pound more than twice the price in summer it's still a big payday that's the thing i think
38:51about the girls like they got kids and it's so costly nowadays like just the economy itself and
38:58you take thirty thousand dollars you know you're gonna push yourself to the limit anyway at all right
39:05what you gotta do what you gotta do
39:07while the brakes enjoy their win
39:21triple four squadron have returned from their rescue mission
39:24one that took them to a remote island over 200 miles from the base
39:28for this job you need to give yourself to the mission there will be late nights you have to miss
39:35a birthday you have to miss christmas holidays but we punch through and make the mission happen
39:43i always had a goal of helping people i really love putting on my uniform i like going flying
39:49i really like taking care of other people knowing that there are families that get closure at the end of
39:54it whether it's bringing home someone they love or letting them know that we now know what the
39:59end of the the result is i do what i do because i love it and i can't imagine doing anything else
40:04on the docks and bait a bird turn on a few things get it all ready for when ron shows up for the
40:19groceries board and both doors up on the tanks and in the cucumber season the crew of the osc mariner
40:27fresh off their training in foxtrap are loading up for a brand new fishing challenge
40:32oh everything perfect been so long since i've been on here i uh it's gonna take me a minute or so to
40:40get back into uh the groove that doesn't stop loves it loves that i do
40:49captain ron and the boys have been tasked by the dfo to conduct a survey of sea cucumbers
40:54in their usual fishing grounds off the northeast coast they're saying like a pan full of cucumbers
41:00around 130 150 pounds yeah it's an emerging fishery so it's new new to us and seems to be pretty
41:08good so we're excited to get going and see what it's all about really ron and company are also
41:14energized by their time together in foxtrap you always think of your crew as your family because
41:19you spend just as much time with those guys as you do your your blood family okay he's off
41:24you ever want to board yeah go through training like this it sort of keeps it in the guy's mind
41:32like i'm not only looking out for myself but i'm looking out for my crew member that's next to me
41:37we are off you want to keep those guys safe
41:41we're just setting our course now well it's uh 200 malls away 200 nautic malls so it's a little bit

42:02afternoon and then after that is uh game on ron got something to go catch we're all there to go
42:17catch it coming out here you want to be getting a full trip to make it visible right so time is
42:24closing in on us now it's become a big problem here it's caused a lot of issues
42:30racist species could thrive all over the island if they got the chance so we don't want to give
42:34that to them you just got to brace yourself for the worst and try to do what you can
43:00do
