    The fleet suffered the loss of a and one of its men. You'll have a mother that's lost a son to the ocean. But now it's on the Bering Sea, and the men have set out once again, this time to fish for Opilio crab. While King crab season was a dangerous for glory. Opilio season is a marathon of pain. Longer, colder and . With the risks come big rewards. The chance of $30000 in only two weeks. Money, money. That's good. But the Bering Sea won't give up her riches without a fight. (Radio) 'Gale warning. Gale warning'. An approaching ice storm will make life on treacherous, especially for inexperienced like Kevin Davis. Along with the other he will learn first hand the most important lesson of winter crab fishing on the Bering Sea: coming home ALIVE. [Musical interlude]

    Day one: On day one of the season aboard the 'Erla-N' the felt the pressure as captain Bing Henkel began his quest for redemption after a king crab season. Everyone, check the knots, everyone of them. Taking a by fishing further north they started the season off with a . Beautiful crab. That's all I can say. But as the Arctic storm moves south the 'Erla-N' will be one of the first boats to feel its bite. 150 miles to the south on the 'Saga' the first came up empty. Not what we need. Our partner boat, is getting great crab up the hill. We are gonna head up that way. And the skipper Roger Strong decided to move north towards the Erla-N's position. the family run 'Artic Dawn' Captain Ole Helgevold, with the help of his two sons, worked through the first day, dropping all 70 of his pots. That was the last pot. Mission accomplished. The is in the water. We're gonna be rich in three weeks. Hopefully. Ole's plan was to let them for over 12 hours, a lifetime in crab fishing. I don't think we're that energetic anymore to pull on a short soak. Let it soak. If you've it up good, the crab will come to you. No one knows where the large schools of Opilio crab will be this year. And Ole only has seven days to figure it out.
