00:00Previously...
00:02Yay!
00:04Look at my...
00:05She's happy!
00:06That's a happy llama if I've ever seen a happy llama.
00:09The Winter Lobster...
00:10The hunting season is underway.
00:12A hundred and sixty on the knocker.
00:14Three...
00:15A hundred and twenty for the day.
00:17Risking it all...
00:19In pursuit of the world...
00:20The world's most prized seafood delicacy...
00:22Is a fleet of young gun lobstermen.
00:25Take a few more of them, Johnny.
00:27And a canny old sea dog.
00:29An Aussie...
00:30The Winter Lobster Legend.
00:32Dead by me!
00:33That's what we're talking about.
00:35Hello, ladies!
00:40The hikes...
00:41It's too long.
00:42It's too long.
00:44It's too long.
00:45Without a meaty grameled or aimpun 그 lightsabயit!
00:47No doubt.
00:48No doubt.
00:49You try to put your hand in the heat.
00:51It's too long.
00:52It'll be tough!
00:54I'll pay call your walk with me!
00:56Then...
00:57No doubt.
00:58-
01:01The arrow by...
01:03how cool...
01:05Me?
01:07This went into anung budget...
01:08I could hit him...
01:09A gate or not in a interview
01:11I stopped watching amzus.
01:13That's inevitable.
01:14fatigue and a dismal dawn catch rate is not helping.
01:19Team morale.
01:20Yeah, not real fast this morning.
01:22Bit shitty.
01:24It's been taking us a bit longer because obviously we've only got one guy.
01:29Had half an hour of sleep and we got 3.30.
01:32It's not long enough that was it.
01:34But yeah, team to see he hasn't complied once.
01:40He's been putting in 110%.
01:42Ah, what a .
01:44It's a huge job doing this by itself.
01:47It's been a lot of .
01:49A lot of fish to go through in the pot.
01:51I bet he's wishing he had someone else giving him a hand though.
01:54I can see if he dies.
01:55.
01:56.
01:57.
01:59I wish we had two crows.
02:00We'd be finishing some as f***ing earlier.
02:04Did anything get out of it?
02:06Nah.
02:07.
02:08.
02:09.
02:10It's a disappointing morning for Team Pira, but Miles still leads the
02:14.
02:14the tally board with 686 lobsters.
02:17The chieftain holds .
02:19second place on 682.
02:22The bold contender.
02:24has 647 lobsters in the tank.
02:27And the baran is .
02:29in fourth place on 365.
02:32.
02:33.
02:34king hamarton tired and all that sort of stuff please don he.
02:35.
02:39As to the prices, lobsters..
02:39is over a kilo are currently selling for between $65 and $85.
02:44Lobsters under a kilo are selling for $55.
02:49to $60 a kilo.
02:51Hello, boys!
02:55This morning on Aussie Loves to End, the boys are exhausted.
02:58The crew...
02:59The crew of the Buran is hunting lobsters inshore
03:02along the southwest coast of Tasmania.
03:04If working next to jagged shards of razor-sharp quartzite
03:09wasn't stressful enough.
03:11We have to be on the ball with this next one, please, Johnny.
03:13Yeah, mate.
03:14Jack's made a big, risky call.
03:17If his next shot's a fizzer...
03:19he's shifting locations.
03:21And that will cost him money.
03:23Ah...
03:24A bit anxious.
03:25A lot hanging on this one, whether we stay, whether we go...
03:29Could go either way this morning, really.
03:33Stack between a...
03:34Rock and a half place at the moment.
03:35I don't want to leave fish to find fish,
03:37but the fish down here have just been...
03:39so touch and go.
03:40We might have to take that risk.
03:42We've started off a little bit slow.
03:45First three pots, we've got one fish.
03:47So if we can't get a hundred fish...
03:49for this shot, we're gonna make a move north, I reckon.
03:52Poke your little heads out.
03:53Come on.
03:54So where I'd go if I took off...
03:56Yeah, that's probably gonna be another 300 bucks of fuel just...
03:59to get there.
04:00And then we'd lose a day shot too, so...
04:02There they be.
04:04We could put five, six, seven...
04:0610 grams worth of fish on this boat real fast.
04:08You know, I'd be able to...
04:09Good one.
04:10Got him, Johnny?
04:11Got him, bruv.
04:12Johnny's only new, so he's...
04:14Still learning, but he's picking up a lot of little things.
04:17I don't mind taking some that's never done it before.
04:19But...
04:20Yeah, you get the training the way that you like.
04:24It's this third or fourth trip that he's ever done, so...
04:27You know, with the wheel out to the back of the...
04:29I can keep an eye on everything that Johnny's doing, so...
04:32Yeah, we can't afford to have any f*** ups.
04:34Oh, there's one good one in there.
04:36One, Kaz.
04:37Had a good start.
04:39The guys like this would definitely f*** up, I think.
04:44Yeah.
04:45Yeah.
04:46Yeah.
04:47Yeah.
04:48Yeah.
04:495.30am, the Friars.
04:54and Bryce's night shot pods have hit shallow bottom
04:57and that's bad news.
04:59News for everyone, the deckies all get a cut of the gross profit.
05:04And this morning's gross profit is wobbly at best.
05:08Lord...
05:09A lot of sharks coming up this morning, not enough lobs.
05:12What's that you got there, mate?
05:13Four...
05:14Four draft board sharks.
05:15Can we call that?
05:17Shark orgy.
05:19This morning's not looking very good.
05:20It's the opposite of yesterday morning.
05:22The swirl's still up.
05:24I've gone in too shallow.
05:25I reckon it's my mistake.
05:28I think Bryce is about set.
05:30That's always where you looked.
05:32We don't like a sad blast.
05:33A sad blast.
05:34Happy Bryce is sad.
05:35We want a happy Bryce.
05:36Wahey!
05:38He's a big...
05:39Lovey!
05:42What's Bryce complaining about?
05:43We're getting big juicy...
05:44red lobsters.
05:45Not as many as yesterday, but we're still getting big juicy red lobsters.
05:50I probably don't even have to measure him, but I will anyway.
05:53Yeah, he's size.
05:54Look.
05:55Look at this.
05:57He's about a kilo and a half.
05:58One...
05:592.5 kilo probably.
06:00That's three.
06:01That's good.
06:02You can't be sad when you've got fish that size on your boat.
06:05But they're a bit slower than yesterday, and I think that's why Bryce is sad.
06:07Bryce wants to get better every day.
06:09That's okay.
06:11Bryce doesn't know it yet, but he leads Squizzy...
06:14to buy 35 lobsters.
06:16Bryce has been chasing the old dog for years.
06:20Without success.
06:21We've got 15 pots on.
06:22We've got a full bin of crows.
06:25That's good.
06:26But Bryce...
06:27Bryce!
06:28It's a little sad...
06:29Because we don't have as many as we did yesterday morning.
06:32And Bryce...
06:33Mine's probably...
06:34thinking, oh, Squizzy's got 150 on already.
06:36Oh, Squizzy's got bloody 400 on...
06:38Yeah.
06:3915 pots.
06:40That's what he's going through his head.
06:42But I'll tell you right now, Bryce...
06:44I'll tell you right now.
06:46He doesn't.
06:47Measure the fish down after this one.
06:49Can you stop being a sad sack?
06:51It kind of puts a downer on the day, doesn't it?
06:53It does.
06:54How do you get a happy price?
06:55Well, we need, like, 100 lobs.
06:59Come on, Rhino!
07:03Come on, Rhino!
07:04The rocky shallows of Pedra Branca are perilous.
07:10Squizzy's having second thoughts about staying here.
07:13When I set these...
07:14fish pots last night,
07:15I was chasing big reds.
07:17The price is up on the bigger fish.
07:19And I thought,
07:20these fish have not gone all year.
07:24And I had a gut feeling they were going to be alright.
07:29Oh, .
07:31Well, they're not.
07:33They are blanking.
07:34They are blanking.
07:35It's something that ain't gonna improve.
07:36And we're not gonna be in.
07:37They're gonna...
07:38And we're gonna be in.
07:39And we're gonna be in.
07:40We're gonna be in.
07:41And I'm gonna go out,
07:42and we're gonna be in.
07:43And we're gonna be in.
07:44And I'll be in.
07:45Well, it's gonna be in.
07:46And I'll be in.
07:47What happens when you go for a few redder ones?
07:52Blank Pots and Hungry Octopus it's a double dose of Pedro
07:57Branka Payne for the crew of the bold contender
08:00I've f***ing won
08:01What?
08:02F***ing two, three pots in a row of octopus
08:06Come on
08:07Give us a chance
08:09Yeah, yeah, yeah
08:12Oh, look at that
08:13Something different
08:15Lobsters
08:17The lobsters are there
08:20The bottom's full of them
08:22Just need more of them, bro
08:23I need more of them
08:24I stand in the house and I stand
08:26We're not
08:27We're not moving
08:31F***ing
08:32Yeah, that was my bad
08:33I put the anchor f***ing on because of the f***ing
08:37Problem is, because the days are dragging out, you've got to make mistakes
08:42Hot f***ing s***
08:43You can't get your f***ing fingers in them
08:45Ah, f*** me
08:47Nowhere to grab the f***ing knees
08:49Yeah, it looks like a beautiful morning out there today
08:52But, I'll tell you what
08:53It's just
08:54Tim's getting really frustrated
08:57There's so much tension
08:59From the boat
09:02Ah
09:03Every f***ing f***ing shark
09:07He's losing his temper
09:08You know
09:09He's starting to realise that
09:11He's starting to realise that
09:12You know
09:13It's all getting a little bit too much
09:14And, I think
09:16He's
09:17He's basically a bragging board
09:18F***ing
09:19Morals of life
09:22We're gonna have to make some changes here
09:27Ah
09:28Ah, I fought the every time.
09:33Miles and Timmy's relationship is at breaking point.
09:38Timmy's exhausted and Miles has patience for silly mistakes.
09:43Miles is wearing thin.
09:45Ah, boy!
09:48Are you not going to let the boys tie it on?
09:50I'm still going to move everything, man.
09:53I don't really like people, so...
09:56It's not working with just Tim.
09:59If we carry on the way we're going,
10:01me and Tim are just going to have a huge argument.
10:03And, you know, it's just all going to turn to shit, basically.
10:07Ah!
10:08Why?
10:09It shouldn't be taking you 20 hours to get for 100 pounds.
10:13Ah!
10:14Many lobster boats are run with single-decky crews.
10:17Johnny handles the...
10:18...and he has less experience than Timmy.
10:21It's full, boy!
10:23But the Buran's deck is tiny.
10:25The Pira's is huge.
10:27And that length...
10:28...that lengthens every move Timmy makes.
10:30Then there's the rats.
10:32Undersized...
10:33...lobsters.
10:34Sometimes up to 20 for just two keepers.
10:37It's a...
10:38disaster combination.
10:39Miles is not happy.
10:41I'm just going to make a decision.
10:43...which best suits my business right now.
10:45And that's just the way it is.
10:46Ah!
10:47.
10:48.
10:49...whoop!
10:50...what the settings are...
10:51...f***ing odd.
10:52F***ing odd.
10:53.
10:54.
10:55.
10:56.
10:57.
10:58.
10:59.
11:00.
11:01.
11:03.
11:04.
11:05.
11:08.
11:09.
11:10.
11:11.
11:12.
11:13.
11:14.
11:15.
11:16.
11:17He needs a deckie with energy.
11:19I think we'll definitely never get a second deckhand.
11:22I've got someone in mind who I might ask and see if they're available.
11:27Hello, hello.
11:29Hi, mate. What's happening?
11:31Hello.
11:33Oh, not much. He's out fishing at the moment.
11:36Yeah, nice, nice.
11:37Yeah, would you be keen on coming to a trip?
11:40Yeah, I'd be keen to a trip, yeah.
11:42I thought it'd be awesome.
11:47I think this is it.
11:5250.
11:53That's all.
11:54That's all.
11:55That's all?
11:56Yeah.
11:57That's all there is.
11:57What a difference a few hours at sea can make.
12:02Make sure night shot came good in the end, and Bryce has pulled some big lobsters.
12:07I wouldn't say I'm, as Lockie says, grumpy or anything.
12:10It's just a bit different.
12:12It's heartening after yesterday's efforts.
12:14You know, when blanks start coming up, you've got to focus on...
12:17Every pot, you want to see what it was on.
12:19You want to see, you know, why.
12:21Then when you've got someone in...
12:22You're going...
12:23You're just like, shut up.
12:25I'm focusing here.
12:27You've got 100.
12:28That's good.
12:29Happy days.
12:30It's just the amount of effort...
12:32You want to make sure you get everything perfect, and then you get 100.
12:35I'm happy.
12:36I'm happy.
12:37The price probably won't be, but that's all right.
12:38We're happy.
12:39The market always wants the reds.
12:41It always wants...
12:42It's a bigger fish.
12:43That's what I was trying to target.
12:44Pew pew!
12:45Yeah!
12:46We'll just focus...
12:47It's on the day shot now.
12:48I think, hopefully, we're the first ones out here, and we can hit the same strip that
12:52I was having...
12:52I'm happy with yesterday.
12:53Bryce got 100, Johnny, so pressure's on.
12:57We're looking for those ones.
12:58How many, Johnny?
12:59Three, cuz.
13:02Still getting thrilled for a pot.
13:03I didn't sign that.
13:04Still getting thrilled for a pot.
13:05I didn't sign that.
13:07There's been quite a few that have had bugger all in them.
13:12We're borderline.
13:13Two pots off halfway.
13:17Got 47 so far.
13:18Couple of good pots.
13:19Couple of pretty average pots.
13:20See how...
13:22The other half goes.
13:23See whether we die.
13:24See whether we go.
13:25Jack has set a target for his next...
13:27shot of 100 lobsters.
13:29Fail, and they'll need to relocate...
13:32to a new spot.
13:33I'm feeling that we're gonna move spots today.
13:36I'm feeling...
13:37Jackie boy's gonna say,
13:38we're going up further,
13:40up the west coast further.
13:42We've got bills to pay.
13:44We've got families to feed.
13:45And there's my father as well, you know.
13:47First pot from the second half, Johnny.
13:49What's gonna happen?
13:50Got a lot of wine on it.
13:52The old man bought this boat in 2011.
13:55And that's when I jumped on deck with him.
13:56He's 60...
13:57He's 86 now,
13:58so I'm sort of starting to take over a lot of things that he does.
14:00So my old man actually owns the...
14:02boat that I drive.
14:03And he's a typical old fellow, you know.
14:05He's got expectations.
14:07And what he wants me to catch every shot.
14:09So we really need to put some fish on this boat.
14:11That looks a bit more...
14:12Thomas and Johnny.
14:13One.
14:14Uh, uh, uh.
14:16The next...
14:17The next few pots will decide if Jack stays or goes.
14:22Come on, you .
14:23Where are ya?
14:24The cries are going to sleep.
14:27Nah, we pulled about 20 through here and we've made another 10.
14:32Here.
14:33Four of them come out of one pot.
14:35I was really hoping for a bit more this morning.
14:37to have a let down.
14:38F*** it, Johnny.
14:39I think I'm going to make the call, buddy.
14:40F*** it, Johnny.
14:41I think I'm going to make the call, buddy.
14:42I think that's a wise idea, bruv.
14:44I think we might f*** off and try and find a f***ing dragon.
14:47of pastures.
14:48Yep.
14:49Go up a bit further.
14:50Yeah.
14:51I think we'll disappear.
14:52I don't care.
14:53Day five at sea and the fleet seems to be suffering from a...
14:57the case of the mid-season blues.
14:59Squizzy's Pedra Branca plan has backfired...
15:02Jack's inshore strategy has drawn a blank and Miles has a...
15:07looming workplace safety issue.
15:09Is it finally Bryce's time to shine?
15:12Yeah.
15:13It's not funny.
15:14Yeah.
15:15Yeah.
15:16Yeah.
15:17Yeah.
15:18Yeah.
15:19Yeah.
15:20Yeah.
15:22Yeah.
15:23No I'm not the one that's all.
15:24I don't have to try.
15:25That's the second one.
15:26Yeah.
15:27I can see.
15:28Yeah.
15:29Yeah.
15:30Yeah.
15:32Yeah.
15:33Yeah.
15:34Yeah.
15:35Yeah.
15:37Yeah.
15:39Yeah.
15:40Yeah.
15:41Yeah.
15:17Myles might have a solution to his decky for...
15:22He's found a second deckhand, Cody, who's ready to join...
15:27...the pierer.
15:28But to make that happen, Myles has to head back to port.
15:32It's too much, really, any single deckhand.
15:35I'm going to have to dig Cody to...
15:37But first, he has to break the news to Timmy.
15:42Tim just struggles to get along with other people, but...
15:47...basically.
15:48Yeah!
15:49I don't think Tim's going to like the news.
15:53So I'm going to try and do it in a way...
15:54...that he's not going to feel too let down by the situation.
15:57Oh, shit.
15:59Look, we'll just see how it goes.
16:02Look, I was thinking about chucking a few fish off.
16:04Yeah.
16:05What do you reckon if we get Cody to come jump off?
16:07Come on.
16:08Look at this.
16:09Up here.
16:12I've already sort of spoken to Cody.
16:13Hello.
16:14Yeah.
16:15We've got another six days to go.
16:16Yeah, I'm right.
16:17Yeah, I'll tell you, it's a bloody hard job, this job.
16:22But it would only be for this tree.
16:23Yeah, right.
16:24Yeah.
16:25But, you know.
16:26You've got to think about catching...
16:27...try fish.
16:28You know, you've got to think about selling your fish.
16:30And then you've also got to be a bloody, you know...
16:32...a psychiatrist at times, too.
16:34I'm an easy man.
16:35Don't think I'm going to be...
16:36Yeah.
16:37I'm going to piss off if you do it or anything.
16:38I'm hurting a bit, so...
16:39Yeah.
16:40Yeah.
16:41Oh, I just want to run that...
16:42Possibly.
16:43I only want bees.
16:44That's all right.
16:45Yeah.
16:46All right.
16:47That's cool.
16:48Ah.
16:49I think, in a sense, teams were late.
16:51You know, because...
16:52I don't think we could have sustained doing what we were doing.
16:57But, look.
16:58It's the best decision.
16:59Now the travellers are going to try and find...
17:00Now the travellers are going to try and find...
17:02...this f***ing fish to die.
17:03I'm going to try and find...
17:04...this f***ing fish to die.
17:05I'm going to try and find...
17:06...this f***ing fish to die.
17:07...this f***ing fish to die.
17:08I'm going to try and find...
17:09...this f***ing fish to die.
17:10We are going so...
17:11...so...
17:12Shit, he's not funny.
17:17The bold contender is floundering.
17:20What a disaster this morning here.
17:22Blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank.
17:27we won't make a hundred and you want to make a hundred a shot
17:32starting to doubt myself about coming out here starting to think
17:37you only had 300 fish for a day and you left it you're a f***ing idiot
17:42loser well we're not going real well
17:47but I feel like our luck's going to change soon
17:49I'd say it looks a bit dismal in there this morning
17:52we're pulling blank after blank
17:54I've gone way too shallow
17:56I've gone too
17:57chasing the big reds and they're not running
17:59wow
18:02it's a good thing Squizzy's got no hair
18:04because he would have pulled all at us
18:07to the shop
18:07catch some lobster

18:25and it's
18:27potluck
18:28this is the thing about being a fisherman
18:32when you're catching you're happy
18:33when you're not catching you're not happy
18:35then you start
18:37doubting yourself
18:38be a lobster fisherman they said

21:48the way I'm going
21:49that's gonna be
21:49my retirement plan
21:51I'm filling my age this morning
21:54it's a young man's game
21:55I can remember when
21:56I can remember when
21:56I was 30
21:57I was fit
21:57cocky
21:58you play cricket
21:59you go play football
22:00and then still be
22:01fit
22:01it's a young man's game
22:02but I'm a lot older now
22:04and the body's not in
22:05the best condition
22:06currently
22:06bearing a bit of weight
22:07now when you go home
22:09you sit on the couch
22:09have a glass of wine
22:10pat the dog
22:11and
22:11should probably take the dog
22:13for a walk
22:13but can't be bothered
22:14because I'm too sore
22:15for me fishing
22:16getting old socks
22:21has the veteran skipper
22:22finally met his match
22:24is it the time
22:25of the young
22:26dance
22:26or does the old sea dog
22:28still have a few tricks
22:30up his slave
22:31there's one thing
22:32about being a fisherman
22:33all other fishermen
22:35want to know
22:36what you're catching
22:37maybe it's time
22:39to do an old rope-a-dope
22:41tell him we'll kill him
22:43the pig
22:43and they all come down here
22:46and we'll grab all our pots
22:48and go back up there
22:49that's a low act though
22:54and it worked
22:55and it bloody worked
22:59misdirection
23:01it's exactly what Miles
23:03did to Bryce
23:0472 hours ago
23:05and
23:06it worked
23:07aye
23:08it's all good
23:09just relax
23:10Timmy's coming to terms
23:11with Miles' decision
23:12to head into port
23:14and
23:14and pick up
23:15a second deckie
23:16meanwhile
23:18Miles is on
23:19into his next conundrum
23:20yes
23:22don't know
23:23what's gonna happen here
23:24with this crate price
23:25yeah the price of lobsters
23:27changes all the time
23:28it's like any
23:29industry
23:29this supply and demand
23:31so I just got a text
23:32come through
23:33from a fish buyer
23:34they've got to be 55
23:35which is about five
23:37five dollars less
23:38than I was expecting
23:39it could go a little lower
23:41than 55 days
23:42that price could easily
23:43drop down to 45 dollars
23:44a kilo
23:45within a matter of days
23:46if that price does
23:47drop ten dollars a kilo
23:48we stand a little
23:49is about seven thousand dollars
23:51yes
23:53not sure what to do
23:54to be honest
23:59what's going on
24:04mate
24:05what are you up to
24:06I was just
24:07pumping down the tank
24:09oh yeah
24:10you must be whacking them
24:11man
24:11no
24:13you know us
24:13we're not whacking them
24:14TIN
24:15TIN
24:17TIN
24:18TIN
24:19TIN
24:19mate
24:19you've got to be
24:20all excited now
24:21no we're not getting
24:22big numbers
24:23but enough to
24:23keep us happy
24:24oh yeah
24:26oh no
24:28I squeeze you well enough
24:29I thought you
24:29you
24:29you can't believe a word
24:30the guy says
24:31like honestly
24:32yep
24:32no one else out there
24:33or
24:33nah
24:35at the end of the day
24:36Miles doesn't pay my bills
24:38do you know if anyone else
24:39has been out there
24:40uh
24:42no
24:43I don't think so
24:44he's staying there isn't he
24:47so he must be doing alright
24:48bye then mate
24:49alright
24:50roger
24:51catch up
24:51see ya
24:52take care
24:53well he did a good job
24:55damn flying out of it
24:56didn't he
24:56oh it's definitely
24:58need some live power there
24:59if I can't catch a lobster
25:01I might as go catch a fisherman
25:03never a dull moment
25:04never a dull moment
25:07when you're fishing
25:08trying to f***
25:12think
25:13so much change today
25:15cry for us
25:17gonna go pick up another crew
25:18Miles has a decision to make
25:20unload at 55
25:23dollars a kilo
25:24or keep his catch on board
25:27and steam on
25:28hoping the price will rise
25:31I suppose it'll be better
25:32just to try the fish off
25:33isn't he
25:33probably the cypher option
25:34unless you didn't have money
25:36if Miles cashes in
25:38at f***
25:3855 dollars
25:39he stands to earn
25:41north of
25:4235,000 dollars
25:43and he'll be well ahead
25:45of the rest of the fleet
25:46in terms of making bank
25:48so
25:48full steam ahead to Dover
25:50but his sell now strategy
25:52is not without its risk
25:53so that's the idea
25:55I was travelling there and back
25:57you know
25:57another four hours to
25:58unload and pick up
26:00Cody
26:00we're sort of looking at
26:01about a 12 hour turnaround
26:02here really
26:03which is a bit of shame
26:04to miss out on that fishing time
26:06but
26:06you know
26:07look
26:07I think we're making
26:08the right decision here
26:09we're going to miss out on a shot
26:11doing this
26:11which is
26:12really pisses me off
26:13we're only missing one shot
26:17out of the whole lot
26:18you know
26:18we'll get the gear done quicker
26:19I'm a bit sore
26:21Cody owes me a 10 pack
26:22so if he doesn't bring it
26:23you haven't seen me crabby yet
26:25haha
26:25joking
26:26missing a shot
26:28will definitely compromise
26:30Miles' command
26:31over the rest of the fleet
26:32140
26:33147
26:34so yeah
26:36that's pretty good
26:37the Pira
26:38has
26:38833 lobsters in the tank
26:41Bryce is in second place
26:43with 782
26:45the bold contender
26:46is on 734
26:48and the Buran
26:50remains in fourth place
26:52on 448
26:53lobsters
26:54I don't got frost
26:57heights
26:58so they don't
26:59start frowning anything at us
27:01Bryce has
27:02pissed me off a bit
27:03this trip
27:04but
27:04look I'm not going to
27:06hold a grudge against him
27:07we'll go over and say
27:08love
27:08we're going to be prepared
27:10for Sam and Tim
27:11laughing
27:12laughing
27:13better get me the eggs then
27:14Miles is just rocking
27:18like dumb out of nowhere
27:19so
27:20I don't know what he's up to
27:21it's a bit odd
27:22how you doing
27:23I won't come too close
27:25we'll bloody
27:26you might hit me with your mask mate
27:28laughing
27:28well yeah we're just going in
27:31we're going to just get rid of our fish
27:32might as well you know
27:33yeah okay no worries
27:35if the price drops
27:36I know you've unloaded a shit ton
27:37laughing
27:38it's probably got Bryce's worry
27:41that I'm going in and unloading
27:43I'm sure
27:43or he'll be overthinking the whole situation
27:46but I don't really care
27:47like
27:48he's unloading
27:49which I find odd
27:50I'm wondering whether
27:51something's happening in the market
27:53that's not
27:53good
27:54so
27:54now
27:55if he unloads a lot
27:56a lot more than I think he has
27:58then the processors are going to realise
28:00that hey
28:01these guys are catching a fair few fish
28:03and I
28:03reckon the price will follow suit
28:05the price will drop
28:06and now the fish on my boat
28:07are devalued
28:08I just don't like the added stress of
28:10you know what price you could get
28:12what the fish are worth
28:13on your boat
28:14and
28:15if you lose money
28:18it's
28:19there's nothing
28:20you never had it to start with
28:21but mentally you did
28:23you
28:25you
28:26you
28:28Stain it off.
28:33We're gonna go for a little journey.
28:36Jack and Johnny are heading to the...
28:38Kiblin, a remote area halfway between Hobart and Strawn.
28:43It's a long way away from anything.
28:45The only way to get to the Kiblin is by boat.
28:48It's a really beautiful place, you know.
28:50It's so much greenery around.
28:52It's one of my favourite places.
28:53The fish on the west coast.
28:54Yeah, so we've made it up to the Kiblin.
28:56I love it here, it is.
28:58Good fishing.
28:59Big fish.
29:00Day fishing close.
29:01Like, everything about this area is good.
29:03Jack needs the Kiblin to pay big time because...
29:08...that owes him big time.
29:10Just to get here, he's had to give up a full...
29:13...day shot.
29:14So it's a risk at the end of the day.
29:16Missing a shot could be a thousand bucks worth.
29:18It's a fish, it could be a far grand sweater fish.
29:20I don't know, Johnny.
29:23We're invested now, we're here.
29:25We need to get some big fish.
29:26We need plenty of them to get our numbers.
29:28Back up to where we want to be at.
29:33Hopefully we can hit the nail on the head.
29:35Right on, Johnny.
29:38Pull that in mate.
29:39Pull it in.
29:40Pull it in.
29:41Pull it in.
29:42Pull it in.
29:43Pull it in.
29:44Pull again.
29:45Pull...
29:46Pulls.
29:47배
29:48up already. What's happened? Johnny's made a costly
29:53error. He's just dropped a pot with no floats.
29:57Didn't say this one.
29:58Johnny hasn't put the boys on the right, bro. And that's how easy it is just to lose
30:03.
30:03Just wanted to try it out of the side.
30:08Get anything? He got two. Oh, we got two! Yep. We only got a hundred
30:13this morning. The target for today's day shot's going to be 160. Finishing the day for 260.
30:18That's still a good day. Where the is it? Lockie should be watching where the floats
30:23are.
30:23We're having really strong tides. It's legit completely down. When the tide's doing this,
30:27I need you to...
30:28Yeah, okay. We asked me how many lobs we got, so I was trying to figure that out.
30:31Yeah, but you can talk and look elsewhere. Go to the other side.
30:33I'm looking here.
30:34Oh, what have I?
30:35.
30:36On the skipper.
30:37.
30:38.
30:39.
30:40.
30:41.
30:42.
30:43.
30:44.
30:45.
30:46.
30:48.
30:49.
30:50.
30:51.
30:52.
30:53.
30:54.
30:55.
30:56.
30:57.
30:58.
30:59.
31:00.
31:01.
31:02.
30:38Listen to me.
30:39You're the deckhand.
30:40Go to the back.
30:42.
30:51.
30:52Oh , yes, man.
30:53.
30:54.
30:55.
30:56.
30:57.
30:59.
31:00.
31:01.
31:03.
31:04.
31:05.
31:05.
31:06.
31:07.
30:43You need to learn to just do as you're told.
30:46F***ing do as you're told.
30:47What do you mean?
30:48F***ing doing my job, I'm looking for it.
30:50Lockie struggles to differentiate between...
30:53...friendship, work and back to friendship.
30:56F***ing do as I'm told, mate.
30:58I can do it in a second.
31:01The moment I finish having a go at him...
31:03...I'm back to friendship.
31:04Shot, mate!
31:06Blame me for f***ing everything.
31:08Nah, I need it.
31:09I'm doing it myself.
31:10I'm doing it myself.
31:11You know, I'm more than happy for him to...
31:12...yap, yap, yap.
31:13...yap in the corner and...
31:14F***ing one, f***ing two pots, three pots in.
31:16You're already f***ing pissed me off.
31:18You're gonna do as you're told, mate.
31:20It's not complicated.
31:22Do as you're told.
31:23Do as you're told, mate.
31:25Do as you're told.
31:26Why can't you listen?
31:27Why do you have to argue?
31:28I'm telling you about everything.
31:29Oh, f***ing off.
31:30Because now you're making more of a scene,
31:31so I'm happy to go with it.
31:32Yeah, whatever.
31:33F***ing.
31:33Talk to me normally.
31:35I don't have to bend down and go,
31:36please and thank you, Locky, every single...
31:39He's like a brother to me some days,
31:41but either way,
31:42your brother's still annoyed.
31:43...for you.
31:46Oh, come on, fishies, please.
31:48Please, please, please.
31:50The bold contender is about to pull their first set of...
31:53day pods.
31:55Every time we're going to Pedro of Light,
31:57it's filed for.
31:58Of course, badly.
31:59Come on, lobster dots.
32:01Be nice.
32:02And who do you...
32:03What about lobster?
32:04What about lobster?
32:05What about lobster?
32:06This shot is decision time.
32:08If it's s***, we go.
32:10It's that simple.
32:12I'm nervous as...
32:13I'm nervous as hell.
32:14Come on, baby.
32:17Oh!
32:18Oh, hello.
32:19Oh, yeah!
32:20Oh, yeah, baby!
32:21We've got some doggies!
32:23It was in there!
32:24Hey!
32:25Oh!
32:26Yeah!
32:28Yeah!
32:29Now this makes us happy!
32:31Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
32:33Cheeky eyes right there!
32:36That's a big...
32:37That's a big...
32:38Big fish!
32:39The price is up.
32:40Yeah!
32:41On the fish over a kilo.
32:43And that's why we're here.
32:44F*** the hell!
32:45There's some dollars in there, man!
32:46Yeah, f*** it!
32:47Oh!
32:48There's like three, four every kilo.
32:49Woo!
32:50It's like three, four every kilo.
32:53There's nothing better feeling than right now.
32:55Nice!
32:56This is what it's all about.
32:58Big dogs.
32:59Great numbers.
33:00Big dogs.
33:01Big dogs.
33:02Great numbers.
33:0330!
33:04Lucky 30!
33:05This is why I love being a fisherman.
33:08Yeah, baby!
33:09Oh, f*** no!
33:10Oh, f*** no!
33:11Oh, f*** no!
33:12Oh, f*** no!
33:13Oh, f*** no!
33:14Oh, f*** no!
33:15Oh, f*** no!
33:16Oh, f*** no!
33:17Some good crap!
33:18That is in there too.
33:19That's four pots.
33:21Four pots with an okey.
33:23There's nothing worse than seeing a pot torn up by an octopus.
33:27Now I'm starting to get a bit...
33:28annoyed with these bloody things.
33:29When you get four pots when you haven't even pulled ten.
33:33There's just dead crows everywhere.
33:35Yeah, these octopus aren't doing us any favours, that's for sure.
33:38If they were herding crays in the pots, I'd be happy, but...
33:41When there was two out of this...
33:43If they were dead, dead, he's probably been injected with something.
33:46He's very, very slow.
33:48The octopus are venomous.
33:50They inject toxins from their saliva glands to...
33:53brutalize prey and defend against enemies.
33:56All right.
33:58That's been pulled, hasn't it?
33:59Yeah, he's slow in the way, Kaz.
34:00Yeah, he's slow in the way, Kaz.
34:01Yeah, he's slow in the way, Kaz.
34:03And any big lobsters, they will defend all the little ones.
34:06So then the big ones are always the first to go.
34:08All legs have been knocked off.
34:10Tail's been pulled out.
34:11Yeah, just a dead crows.
34:13All right.
34:14Hard enough to catch them.
34:15You don't want to be throwing them back because of an octopus damaging them.
34:18160's not out of reach.
34:20However, every octopus, it's making it harder.
34:23It's f***ed up.
34:24I haven't put the end.
34:25It's f***ed up.
34:26I haven't put the end.
34:28I haven't put the end on the pile.
34:29The Buran is in trouble.
34:32Johnny has attached a...
34:33a boy to the wrong piece of rope.
34:35And that might cost Jack a pot.
34:38Hopefully we can turn around, grapple the rope if it's still floating near the bus without...
34:43losing it.
34:44What did I do is throw the puppet out of the boys?
34:46Yeah.
34:47F*** this must have been.
34:48Sitting in the basket.
34:49Okay.
34:50And I'll hook on the other one.
34:51Yeah.
34:52We lose that pot.
34:53It could be $3,000 worth of fish that it's not catching.
34:56We're already struggling.
34:57We don't want to make it harder for...
34:58ourselves.
34:59There it is.
35:00There it is.
35:04Thank Christ we've managed to find the rope.
35:06Pull it in.
35:08I'm sure Johnny's happy that we found it because he was probably going to get growled at.
35:13Pull this next one out for me.
35:14Yep.
35:15If I did that working for my father he would have ripped my...
35:18absolute head off.
35:19I'm a bit more patient but I can still get crabby.
35:22All good.
35:23Lose the price.
35:24Didn't lose anything.
35:25I'm a bit stressed out at the moment.
35:27Financially wise.
35:28Fish wise.
35:29Had a wedding come up at pay for them.
35:31Just sort of a million things going around in my...
35:33I don't know if I've made the right call yet.
35:38That's another one.
35:39So far this shot we've got four octopus in four different...
35:43five sides returned.
35:44Our target's 160.
35:45It's just getting harder than...
35:48At sea the metaphoric tide can turn at any...
35:53any minute.
35:54It's Pomata, haven't it?
35:55Yeah, that looks f***ing.
35:58good.
35:59That looks real good.
36:00It's looking real nice.
36:03There's some nice sized crows in here.
36:05Eight out of that.
36:06Jesus Christ.
36:08Nice.
36:09That's having a crack.
36:10This is...
36:11It looks like a tenner.
36:12Got a tenner at this b***h!
36:13This shot started off with some pretty shitty pots.
36:18But...
36:19We got on the surface of bottom I was looking for and...
36:21Bang, bang, bang, bang.
36:22You know, ten eight, ten eight.
36:23So, if we can maintain these numbers...
36:25You know, 160 is pretty reachable I think.
36:28And what'd you get, John?
36:29What'd I get?
36:30A bloody good time!
36:31Put a smile on that dial!
36:33It's crazy how much his mood is depicted by how many lobs that we're catching.
36:38Being good pots can change the whole day.
36:41Isn't that right, Lamy?
36:43It's so nice.
36:44It's so nice.
36:48It's good.
36:49You know, just go and load a few fish.
36:50You don't know what the price is going to do.
36:51You can just drop at any moment.
36:53You can lose a lot of money.
36:54Miles is happy with his gamble, for now.
36:58He's lost a day shot against Bryson Squizzy, but he'll be cashed up.
37:03And Timmy seems happy too.
37:05That's where the beer is.
37:08Now that we pick up Cody, it's going to make it a little a lot easier on him.
37:12Cody is young.
37:13He's a young guy.
37:14He's done three trips for me before.
37:15The reason I didn't have him on the boat, he sort of wasn't getting along.
37:18with Tim that well.
37:19He's saving the day for us, Cody.
37:21I've literally given him no notice.
37:23Yeah.
37:24He's an absolute champion.
37:25Here he is.
37:26How you going, mate?
37:27One of the biggest problems you have.
37:28in lobster fishing is crew management.
37:30Are you out there with me, bro?
37:31My business has got to operate.
37:33Try and get back on track.
37:34And Tim's just going to have to get over it.
37:38As soon as you finish that po-
37:43Start fish downing, please.
37:45The first half of the Chieftain's day shot is top quality.
37:48I reckon it's between 80 and 100.
37:49I reckon it's 110.
37:50I reckon it's 110.
37:53110.
37:54What was your guess?
37:55What's yours?
37:56I'd like 120.
37:57120?
37:58You were no-
37:58It was 106.
37:59106?
38:00Yep.
38:01The target's 160.
38:03We only got 100 this morning.
38:04So if we can end up finishing the day for 260, that's still a good day.
38:08But I don't know.
38:09Are you at least confident that we're going to hit the target?
38:11Nah, because the next lot's on a different bottom.
38:1354 lobsters is all they'll need from the second half of the shot to hit the magic-
38:18160 figure.
38:20Lockie wants to spice things up a bit.
38:23If we get the target, you have to scull that.
38:25We're all out there.
38:26Give it a couple of-
38:27The juice.
38:28Yep.
38:28You have to scull the pickle juice.
38:29Yeah.
38:30Oh, I'll do it.
38:31You'll do it?
38:32If we hit the target?
38:33Yeah.
38:33160.
38:34Alright, cool.
38:35160 and he'll- he'll drink the juice.
38:38100.
38:39100.
38:40100.
38:41100.
38:42100.
38:43100.
38:43onto.
38:442.
38:45Two plus.
38:46Oh, yeah.
38:47Come on, doggies!
38:48If it weighs, it pays.
38:51Squeezy's decision to stick and stay at Pedro...
38:53Drabranka is working out after all.
38:56His numbers are lifting.
38:58Come on, Ryan, now.
38:59Oh!
39:01Hello!
39:02We're in...
39:03Baby, we're in!
39:04Let's go!
39:05Ha-ha-ha!
39:06Ha-ha-ha!
39:08Think of the money!
39:09Ha-ha-ha!
39:10Think of the money!
39:12Ha-ha-ha!
39:13Pretty good, man.
39:14That's what we want.
39:15Woo!
39:16I'm taking fun on that.
39:18That's not going up on social media.
39:20If Bryce and Miles saw this photo...
39:23We're down here in five minutes.
39:24We've got a pot of gold!
39:26Pot of gold!
39:27Finally!
39:28Have I made a mistake?
39:30Calling Miles.
39:31I don't want to share these...
39:33fish.
39:34At the end of the day, I want this area to myself and I hope it...
39:38days like that.
39:39Eleven fish in that.
39:40I reckon they would have went 15, 16 kilos.
39:43So...
39:44That's what we want.
39:45Yeah, baby!
39:46At the current market...
39:48That pot of 11 big dogs could be worth at least $1,000.
39:53My kid jock said if we can eat $160, I'd have to drink pickle juice.
39:58So the pickle juice we have on the boat is pickled octopus.
40:01It's been sitting out all day in the sun.
40:03I don't want it.
40:04I'm not losing this bit either.
40:05I'll probably end up crying, I think.
40:08We need like 10 good pots.
40:09Well, we only need 54 prays for the $160.
40:13I reckon we'll do it.
40:14Took a few good pots.
40:15That's all you need.
40:16A few good pots.
40:17This...
40:18This pot's been a slow pot.
40:20Lots of girls.
40:21Lots of small men.
40:23Let me touch and go.
40:25All right.
40:26Your 10 pots left.
40:27Ah...
40:28Yeah, we need about 30 more crows to tick the target, roughly.
40:32It's not over till the last...
40:33Last pot's pulled.
40:34That's it.
40:38The Pira is unloading its 833 lobsters at Dover.
40:43Cody, decky number two, is already getting on with it.
40:48It's going to be a fast turnaround.
40:52Cash in...
40:53And Moda straight back out.
40:55My gut feeling is the price is going to drop.
40:58I'm getting a few different answers from a few different processes
41:01and there's a bit of instability.
41:03in the market, especially with the smaller fish.
41:07And if you're the...
41:08The first boat to unload, you're generally going to get the highest price.
41:12Yes.
41:13Just don't go show on Bryce or squeeze you that, would you?
41:15No, it's okay.
41:16We didn't break any records, but, you know...
41:18It's money in the bank and...
41:19At least we've secured that price, 55 bucks a kilo.
41:22Thanks, pal.
41:23See you later, mate.
41:26Looking forward to the next part of the...
41:28That's true.
41:29Sure.
41:34That was a zero.
41:35Oh well.
41:36That was a zero.
41:37Oh well.
41:38Oh well.
41:39There, you will see it at the end of the day.
41:43I don't know what to do.
41:44Oh well.
41:45And the same room as if I had to use it.
41:47I think they brought a lot of money but I thought I was doing a lot more seriously.
41:50And now I see it at the end of the day, I think it's done the time to keep going.
41:53Take out the bus.
41:54Bye bye.
41:55It's good.
41:56Bye bye.
41:57Bye bye.
41:58Bye bye.
41:59Bye bye.
42:02Bye bye.
42:03Bye bye.
42:04Bye bye.
42:06Bye bye.
42:07Bye bye.
41:4339. Didn't quite hit the target, but oh well.
41:48Team Chieftain landed 145 lobsters for their last shot.
41:53Bryce avoids the pickle juice, but more importantly, the shot has gone.
41:58He catapulted Bryce to the top of the tally board.
42:01I wonder if we beat Squizzy for the day shot.
42:03He just doesn't know it yet.
42:08Yeah, baby. That's what we're after.
42:12Yep.
42:13Oh, here he is, the captain.
42:17150.
42:18Woo!
42:18Woo-hoo!
42:19Payday, baby. Well done, boys. I'm happy for the crew.
42:23Well done.
42:24These are nice fish, weren't they?
42:25They were good fish.
42:28The fleet is all done for the day. The final numbers are in.
42:33Chieftain has aced it with 927 lobsters.
42:38It's the first time in two seasons that Bryce has been at the top.
42:43Of the tally board.
42:45The bold contender is in second place on...
42:48..the 883 lobsters.
42:50The pier are cashed in.
42:52They're 833 lobsters.
42:53And the baran is on 448.
42:58Hoping for better days ahead.
43:03Yeah, look, we cashed in.
43:05We cashed in on what we had.
43:06But, I mean, we've just missed out on...
43:08..12 hours of fishing.
43:10Mum, that's a big up boat!
43:13I'm so...
43:14I'm so tired.
43:15I'm so tired.
43:15And it's great as well, I'm too...
43:18..
43:18Oh, it is a gamble and
43:23I think it's gonna pay off for us
43:28I think it's gonna pay off for us
43:33I think it's gonna pay off for us
43:38It's gonna pay off for us
43:43I think it's gonna pay off for us
43:48I think it's gonna pay off for us
43:53I think it's gonna pay off for us
