Cold Water Cowboys

Captain Richard Gillett risks his boat and crew to reach the rich crab grounds before his competition. Conway Caines runs into Murphy's Law, with everything from sharks to disappearing capelin setting them back.

Richard's hunger forces him to take a gamble that puts his entire season and livelihood of his crew at risk. Paul has a friendly bet going with his "buddy boat".

An idealistic day of fishing takes a devastating turn for Richard when his tow skiff suddenly capsizes and becomes fully submerged under the boat.

Richard's capelin season is here, but with his 12-year-old son on board and struggling with seasickness, concentrating on work is no simple task. For the first time Conway skippers the Sea Doo while his father is out with a back injury. In an effort to be the first to the find the shrimp Justin takes his crew into dangerous weather, putting his entire season at risk.

Needing to make up for a terrible season, Richard has no choice but to rule with an iron fist in an effort to bring his crewmates home a paycheck. While hunting turbot, Conway's boat suffers severe damage and hangs by a thread. After a full on fistfight breaks out on the deck, Justin is forced to take drastic measures.

It's the beginning of mackerel season and all our fishermen want a piece of the action. Richard hunts hard but his crew come up against one snafu after another. Conway races home to get his seining gear on board. Skipper Donald Spence has just bought a new boat, and he's under enormous pressure to make a big payday off the mackerel fishery.
