On the Edge

This episode looks at the family histories of fishing for crab on the Bering Sea. Often times several generations of men find themselves fishing together and even replacing their fathers. The captains will discuss the vast improvements made in fishing boats and equipment over the years as well as safety upgrades. They will also talk about the comparisons of crab fishing to gold prospecting. The show closes with a discussion of crewmembers who had short careers due to being too frightened to continue and some of the funniest practical jokes that they have played on one another over the years.
