So I looked at twitter this afternoon to see if there is a preview for the season finale. Instead I found that Nick posted that he left the Cape Caution. He wants to make more money which is fair enough. I know Bill really had to play ball to get the insurance on him. source: twitter.com/NickMcglashan?lang=entwitter.com/NickMcglashan?lang=en

I wonder if Nick left to give Zack a chance at Deck Boss/Engineer. True that Nick is very good at what he does and may earn more on another boat. Time will tell.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Nick on the Time Bandit next year...

I seem to remember an episode of the bait that Nick was on. It came out that he is from a well known fishing family and that they own a boat. He was basically on the cc to get experience. He will be in a wheelhouse at some point.

His family doesn't own any boats and he barely talks to them. He's still on the cc but barely because he's an alcoholic. He's lucky to still be employed.
EDIT BY ADMIN-A sentence was removed from this post because it made accusation without evidence. This site will not be used to spread gossip about a fisherman's private life. If you have public documentation, bring it, or else keep it to yourself. A second edit was made to replace a word with the word alcoholic. -Maribegood 10/25/2015.

The Twitter link at the OP now shows Nick talking about prepping the Cape Caution for Crab Season, even has a photo of him with Zack shopping for groceries. So it seems Nick is still on the CC.

It seems that way. Perhaps Nick didn't find a boat that was going to live up to what he wanted to make. So he went back to work for Bill.

That's not surprising. One of the Bering sea gold guys was also on DC as a deckhand.
Both shows are heavily scripted, and probably involves some training for the 'actors'. I guess moving someone who knows the routine between the shows.

And you know this how? There seems to be a contest to see who can prove themselves to be the most cynical about DC...but nobody ever puts up any proof.
The term 'scripted' means that there is an actual...well....script. When somebody produces an actual script, I'll believe it. Lacking that, its really a bunch of people going about their jobs...who are constantly being prodded by a camera crew to talk, talk, talk, and create conflict. Nothing more, nothing less.

Of course that can't be proven, unless someone breaks their NDA with DC or something.
Some of what you see is obviously true, they don't cut their fingers off just to make a good shot. There are however far too many strange coincidences and irrational behavior for me to believe it. But you are free to think what you want.

There's a HUGE difference between "Scripting" and "Editing". In the first case the Storyline revolves around events that never happened. In the second, events that DID (sort of) happen are "spun", exaggerated, or telescoped to create tension, heighten drama, or reveal "Character". A certain amount of "Editing" makes its way into ALL Programming, otherwise you end up watching nothing but a "Camera Feed". Which is only slightly more interesting than a time-lapse of Glaciers melting, though I DO admit to occasionally being mesmerized by the "Yule Log"..... !

I don't believe that DC is scripted,but I know from talking to some of the guys involved that they are often asked to recreate something that may have happened,or repeat something they may have said.
I also believe that some story lines are created by DC producers.
For example,I know that Mike Wilson was approached by the Kiska Sea owners to take on Jake Anderson. It was not his idea. He inferred that DC had something to do with it. Mike didn't say why they approached him,but I believe that DC had a hand in it. I think that is part of why we often see deck hands moving around to different boats. Also,I don't believe that several years ago Keith Colburn and Jon Hilstrand were bitter enemies and now they suddenly are old buddies sharing fishing grounds?

Yes, the show definitely influences what happens..ie the only way Jake ends up in a Captain's chair period is the show. And yes, its beyond coincidence that Freddie keeps getting hired by DC boats, when there are plenty of other boats out there. I get that. Keith has actually talked about how the cameras almost left his boat for being too boring, and then Lenny got hurt, so they stayed. I have no doubt that Keith and Monte, ever since, have been more 'vocal' with their emotions, to keep the cameras on the boat. And Wild Bill has talked about coming off as a lunatic...toning it down the next season...but being disappointed in losing camera time as a result. So yes, for sure the presence of cameras certainly affects things.
And I'll acknowledge that Discovery could be behind some entire story lines, such as Sig's daughter crab fishing...and Jake's ascension to the wheelhouse.
But scripted, as Seasick claims?
That's actually a pretty big claim. And absent the discovery of a script, I believe its an unsubstantiated claim. Frankly, these guys are pretty terrible 'actors' when filming The Bait...so I really don't think they are capable of successfully acting on DC.

Yep..."Editing" is what turns 3 boring days on a Lake into a half-hour program packed with fast and furious, non-stop, "Bass Fishing Action". But there has to be some "action" to begin with. DC crews have been known to ask Captains to "Make Some Television"...i.e, have deckhands tinker around with gear and equipment that's in perfect working order anyway!

I just had a thought...would the above practice of "setting up" scenarios be considered "Scripting"? "Editing"? or "Screditing"
