Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

And if that boat gets bought out (or they bankrupt it, whichever comes first), I have no idea what Jake is going to do, because no captain worth his salt is going to let him within 10 miles of his boat.

Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

I wonder if the engineer isn't actually the one to blame... only because he seems like it... but the kid... really.

IMO, from what we saw on TV... Derick didn't do himself many favors either. I have to wonder what happens for Opilio season.

Take it with a grain, but from what I am told there was no Opillio season for the CM. They shot enough to film King Crab season and that was it. I heard this from someone who is friends with a deckhand on a different boat.

Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

Well, I've read on another site that they brought in a guy named Tony Lara for Opillio season. *shrug*

EDIT: From Wiki:

The FV Cornelia Marie participated in the 2010 King Crab season with the same crew from the latter half of the 2010 Opilio season. Before the King Crab season started, the crew of the Cornelia Marie spread Phil Harris' ashes in the Bering Sea. The ship had a crew change for the 2011 Opilio season, including the replacement of skipper Derrick Ray with Tony Lara.

Take that with the same grain of salt, I guess.

Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

I read an interesting interview with Derrick the other day. The way he told it the boys where there simply to make good tv and that crabbing was not the primary reason. Honestly it wouldnt suprise me if they were pressured from the producers to make a trip because thats what people wanted to see. Its all a big mess.

yeah, that couldn't have done well when he heard that... that certainly lowers my opinion of Josh... I just go back to Sig (on german tv of all things) saying that if the cameras are gone then they'll still be in the fishing business... Do Josh and Jake think they're going to parlay this stuff into acting careers? Their job is that boat.

Thats the one. It was tough reading that about Josh. Up until that interview I felt like he really wanted to be out there and really cared. Maybe he still does and what was said doesnt truly reflect his feelings. But I definetly dont think Jake really cares anymore.

We'll see... I'm doing some digging around... looks like Freddy will end up somewhere interesting for winter.

I just read the article. He nailed Steve perfectly. That guy's a knucklehead.

Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

It is pretty easy to believe that the Harris boys just wanted to make TV and feel sorry for themselves in front of a national audience. I liked Derrick, there was something about the way he carried himself that made me take the way Discovery was showing things with a grain of salt.

Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

I've always liked the way Freddie has portrayed himself. Keith might have made the best move in a while in hiring him.

Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

I've got the feeling that Sig is not overly impressed with the Harris Brothers' running of the boat.

This could get awkward in a hurry.

Exactly. Josh and Jake feel so entitled it is ridiculous.

Sig could have blown their **** up 5 minutes into the show. You could tell by the look on his face.

Sig knows Derrick is right. He isnt' handling it the right way, but that doesn't make him wrong.

Re: Deadliest Catch - Season 7

Derrick's first wrong move was not ****canning that engineer after he and Jake took about an hour and a half too long to do whatever it was they did on the first episode. That guy was an absolute zero. The Wizard got the best fisherman by far when Keith picked up Freddie.
