We'd love to see you! Maybe we can learn about the tendering process and not be so focused on personalities. Though I do recall seing a program that had the TB tendering for some fishery, can't remember which. But the TB was incidental as the show was about the boats catching the fish...netting them I think. I think that show was about herring fishing in Togiak,Alaska

that was "Bristol Bay Brawl". i have been told that you can find old tv shows on certain bit torrent sites if you have friends who know how to do those kind of things.

That would be fantastic Kingcove! Don't forget us little people, you rockstar you! I was just thinking that I may have already had my chance... Several years ago, when I held a different position with the same company, I had a DC camera in my office along with the skipper of a boat called the Trailblazer.It is a nice big boat owned by the same people that originally built the Kiska Sea, including Mike Wilson. It just so happened that the skipper and I knew each other from high school. The camera filmed us as we were talking about his fishing trip and some reminiscing about high school. The DC crew was on the Trailblazer for most of an opie season, but none of that footage ever was broadcast. Apparently that skipper never had any drama to contend with,and I didn't make any drama for him in the office, so wasn't exciting enough to get on TV,

Hey King Crab we would love to see you on TV. How cool would that be ? Meri-I agree with what you said, I don't think Josh has many options. What other job can a high school drop out make $100k ? I think Jake is by far the better fisherman and was more serious about it in the beginning. I think after Phil got sick in 2008 he just fell apart. That and his genetic pre-dispo to his addictions have taken care of him for the time being. I was just on a Alaskan Cruise but did not take the DC ex.-it was $200.00 and I(we all) already know how they fish. I get there to find pollen(which I am allergic to) all over the trees after it just ended here in the east. I spend the whole week sneezing and coughing ! I did have a great time !

None of the footage made air because the wheelhouse producer simply, sucked at her job. Last year while preparing all the equipment for the season, we found a case full of tapes all from the Trailblazer. Several hundred hours worth. It was shocking. A lot of money is invested to feature a boat. Crew wages, camera equipment, tapes, batteries, room and board, airfare, freight costs, dock fees, so on and so forth. So when not a single frame of that investment is shown on TV, it's incredibly rare. I felt really bad for the boat crew though, nobody told them what happened.

How could someone lose that much footage?! I only talked to the skipper once since then and he though they hadn't shown any footage simply because he was not exciting enough.

I am super gratified to learn from a horse's mouth that Disco, despite its many and impassioned protestations, expects its producers to juice things up on board F/V's which demand full attention in routinely hazardous conditions. Thank you, devilstattoo!
It's also nice that Phil, Sig, Keith, the Hillstrands, and the others are affirmed in their many past declarations that Disco was up to more than merely documenting events.

On the up side, we can make a drinking game out of the CM scenes, Take a shot each time Josh says the words "Legacy" or " The Old Man" I'll be nursing a raging hangover Wed. morning . or the phrase that I heard several times the other night... "Hi,I'm Josh Harris,captain in training" Was it captain in training or Skipper Harris In Training? :

I'm gonna buy 'Stock marked for dummies', or something like that, and start introducing myself as 'Billionaire in training.' You ladies may start the line over here.

Thank you, Maribegood (and King Cove)! I just found this Forum so I'm a bit behind in my reading. I fear that the problem will only get worse, whether or not DC Boats are involved....

Has nothing to do with anything on this episode, but I just saw on Josh's FB page he has moved to California. He has new new gf and I guess that's why.

Crabber,
There are several "Josh Harris" FB pages, only one of which has the labels OFFICIAL and PUBLIC FIGURE. That is the one with the most "Likes" and makes no mention of a move.
The one that mentions a move seems like a fan fantasy page, complete with both a Scot Hilstrand and Scott E Hilstrand "friends" listing. I just wouldn't trust that JH page or either of those Hilstrand pages. The official one is probably your best bet.

Meri - I think it is his personal page. He has his new gf on the page and notes he is moving. It is not the DC FB page.

That is just the point, why is the personal page wide open, and why are there 2 versions of Scott Hilstrand, and a truncated version of a second Casey page? The DC Fan page is actually a 3rd version of a JH FB page. I know that Travis Lofland has attempted to have a public page that is under his name removed from FB because he does not actually control it.
Josh is a womanizer, no doubt, but I am leery of trusting that page without another back up. Well, we should know for sure soon, Josh is never with one woman too long.
Svtubamom, I'm not sure where his little girl lives, but in the interviews he gave he was quite clear that he was not marrying her mother, and that they were "friends raising a daughter together".

Guess they are friends with benefits. I guess I am old fashioned, I just think that people should really consider the consequences of unprotected sex.

I can't believe in this day and age people can't be bothered to engage the brain cells that even a radish patch possesses and know that the other terms for unprotected sex are "Vatican Roulette" or "Daddy". Seriously, like he had any business becoming a father.

*meows and spits out furball* What an utterly gorgeous expression!! Where on earth did you get it from? It is definitely an instant part of my vocabulary. Thank you.

I'm not going to judge Josh on whether or not he or his partner had taken precautions to prevent pregnancy because I don't know. I'm also not going to judge Josh on why he and his daughter's mother are not getting married because I don't know. Maybe it was her decision. Maybe it was his decision. Maybe it was both of theirs decision. The only thing that I care about is that he supports her financially and takes his role as a father seriously.

redskies - I agree - now a days many people make the decision to have a child but have no desire to marry. As long as Josh supports his baby and is a loving father that's all that's really important. We do not know what their decision was. I have seen pictures of the baby and she is cute, and at one time she favored Jake.

doder - I don't know what kind of father Josh is but from the pictures I have seen he seemed to spend a lot of time with her. We have no idea his relationship with the baby's mother/child. And in truth, I guess its not our business.

Just saw on Capt.Casey McManun's FB page the following: "Anytime we can make 1.5 times our average speed burning the same amount of fuel, I do it. It's all about reading the tides and currents. July 24 at 7:46am. Poster than wrote "Josh will keep this in his logs, and Casey posted "Josh who"? He lists himself as "captain CM,chief" I'm guessing things between Casey and Josh are not all honky dory.

Interesting crabber. Isn't the CM tendering right now or what? We know from the past, that Josh has only gone crabbing. Doesn't seem to like the grind of the other seasons.

Personally, I would watch Casey if he was the captain of the CM all of the time. I like him a lot. He seems to be a no-nonsense kind of guy who just likes to fish. Josh pales in comparison.

I'm pretty sure kingcove met Josh recently while the CM was tendering. Maybe he bailed on Casey since then though. I can see that happening.
