Hi, this is my first post here. I used to post under the same name in the Discovery forums years ago.
My main purpose for wanting to post was because one of my good buddies went out on Lady Alaska last year and they(Discovery) REALLY made him look bad.
His name is Jerry Pacheco and he's great guy, great crew.
In the show, they show him hurt his arm, and Scott says, "oh it's just a little bruised".
Later they show them in St Paul and they show my buddy saying "I'm too old for this s**t" and he quits.
They then show the boat going out and suddenly they're catching crab, and Scott is saying, "oh we just needed to get rid of the old guys"
They made it look like he wussed out, quit, and then fortunes changed cause the old guys got off the boat.
What they didn't show, was Jerry had actually broken his arm. Scott didn't want to end trip and was making Jerry work running hydros.
Jerry worked for a week and told Scott his arm is seriously hurting and Scott asks if he can keep working. THAT'S when Jerry says "I'm too old for this s**t"
They went to St Paul and Jerry said the Discovery crew went with him to clinic, so they KNEW he broke his arm.
They had to medevac him out and in Anchorage had to put plates and screws in arm.
Jerry did Black Cod with us in the spring and we had to wait for his cast to come off before he could go.
We were all kidding him about being on Deadliest catch, wondering how they'd portrait him. NEVER expected they would intentionally and falsely try to ruin a guys reputation.
