Wicked Tuna: Season 13

The Herds Are Here

The Herds Are Here

44min - After a long winter, it’s bluefin season again in Gloucester, Massachusetts. The fleet is eager for a paycheck and it’s not long before they’re on the meat with jumbo tunas. With more catches than ever in Wicked Tuna history, the captains must decide whether to test their luck in Chatham or fish locally.

Early Season Monsters

44min - In the fishiest season Gloucester has seen in years, the fleet battles it out to try and land Bluefin bigger and better than their competition. TJ and Tyler make the run to Maine, betting on the cooler water being the key to landing a jumbo. Meanwhile, the rest of the fleet fishes local, hoping that staying in their comfort zone is the right strategy.

We're Not Quitters!

44min - Stress levels rise on Hard Merchandise as they struggle to catch their first fish. Marciano hates crowds, but that’s where the fish are. Son Joe and nephew Jay propose a new strategy, but will Dave be too stubborn to listen? In this fierce competition, one monster bluefin can change the game, and tensions ramp up as captains grow territorial over their best fishing spots.

Maine or Bust!

44min - Captain Michelle Bancewicz of the No Limits takes a huge risk traveling ninety miles in the hopes of finally catching their first blue fin tuna of the season. Proving they’ll do whatever it takes to get a paycheck, the No Limits finally lands a 105-inch blue fin. Closer to Gloucester, F/V Tuna Dot Com strikes blue gold on crowded fishing grounds with the heaviest fish of the season so far.

Last Chance for Chatham

44min - Captain TJ Ott of the Hot Tuna returns to Chatham and lands a fish, but questions whether it was worth the long trip. After a heart-breaking loss, Time Flies also goes to Chatham and catches, but with somewhat disappointing results. Close to home, an alliance between F/V Tuna Dot Com and Wicked Pissah proves beneficial to both, especially Captain Paul Hebert, who gets two bluefins.

Even the Losers Get Lucky Sometimes

44min - The season is off to a fishy start, but two captains struggle to gain ground. Captain Jack Patrician of the Time Flies has been on a tough losing streak as he and mate, Anders Strickland, grapple to find their groove as a new team. Meanwhile Captain Michelle Bancewicz needs to trust her gut instead of following the crowd.

Dangerous Alliance

44min - Halfway through the season, the DotCom, Wicked Pissah alliance continues to be a force to be reckoned when Paul saves Dave from disaster on the water and reaps the good karma that comes with it. Meanwhile, the rest of the fleet pulls out all the stops in hopes of making up ground in the standings before it’s too late.

To Get It Done, Two is Better Than One

44min - With captains Dave on Dot.com and Paul on Wicked Pissah working together and leading the fleet, middle-of-the-pack Captain Jack and new mate Anders on Time Flies go it alone, gunning for the front runners as they battle monster bluefin. Meanwhile, Tyler on Pinwheel and Marciano on Hard Merchandise form their own alliance seeking to gain an advantage.

Coming In Hot

44min - Former champion Bob Cook on the Fat Tuna sits behind four boats on the leaderboard. With the quota for blue fin tuna season rapidly dwindling, he breaks out of the pack catching two fish and makes a run for the number one position. Meanwhile, the alliance between Wicked Pissah and F/V Tuna Dot Com remains strong and keeps them both at the top of the fleet.

Three-Way Throwdown

44min - With the quota getting smaller everyday, the fleet fights to make big moves. But while Dot Com, Fat Tuna and Wicked Pissah battle for the top, the duo on Pinwheel is hit with a series of hardships. After a brutal loss, Captain Tyler McLaughlin is scratched by his cat, forcing him to seek medical attention and then boat malfunctions keep him stuck on land.

Triple Threat

44min - With the quota rapidly dwindling Fat Tuna fights to hold on to their razor thin lead over Wicked Pissah and DotCom as alliance mates Paul & Dave continue to work together to try and regain the top spot. Meanwhile, the rest of the fleet races to close the gap as they hold out hope for a late season comeback.

End of a Sea Monster Season

44min - In the final days of the season, three former champions – Dave Carraro on FV-Tuna.com, Paul Hebert on Wicked Pissah, and Bob Cook on Fat Tuna battle it out for the top spot. But, with monster fish to catch and mega paychecks to cash, it’s still anybody’s game. And one captain proves that when he risks his life to catch two fish in two days and shakes up the ranks by jumping into the final mix.
