Catch of the Week - Nine Foot Monster | Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks
[Applause] [Music]
Yeah, that looks like a p. Look at this, bro. It's definitely weird to be fishing this close to shore; there's no doubt about it. But as you can see, there's a guy yanking on one right next to us, and we're seeing plenty of bird life with only one fish to our name this season. I'm terrified that making this 600-mile trek down from Glester isn't going to pay off. We need meat on the deck now!
Run, run, run! Take it! It's a tuna for sure. If you want to move, we can move it. Feels good! Feels like a keeper! Feels so great to be hooked right up right now. I mean, we really need this one. Oh, sorry! I got to stay on top of them, bro. Bubby, get ready! Turn, turn, turn, turn, turn! Bubby, turn! Come on, fish, come to Bubby! He's bigger than we think. Look at the tip, Bubby! Remember, there it's shallow water, so if he wants to go, let him go. You know what I'm saying?
CH, you want to hop on here for a minute?
Yeah, okay!
Four a little bit. I can see colors there. Come on, the water—it’s a big one! This thing—a slop! No, no, no! Come on, get me the other door! Get me the other door! Go! Got him!
[Music]
Watch, watch! Move on the [Music]! Left! Jumbo, baby! Finally, we got some meat on the deck! I was worried the tuna gods weren't going to come through for us today. You did so good today! I'm so proud of you!
Thank you, Pi! Good boat, too! Thank you! Thank you! That's a jumbo, man!
Hey, guys, congratulations! It's nice to be back, man! Good to see you! Been a while. We're still alright. Hopefully, it'll be a good one!
I hope so! This fish is almost 9 ft long! Alright, 623! Beautiful! Alright, guys, way to go! Nice fish! Alright, let's see this core sample. Hope got a good one!
No burn, baby! No burn! Nice! What do you think? $15 a pound?
Alright, alright! So y'all let me live another day?
You can live another day! Thanks, buddy! Have a great one!
Let's go get another one!
