Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks

Overview
As winter grips New England, Gloucester's bluefin tuna season wraps up, prompting several top fishermen to journey south to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, where the fishing season is just beginning. After a lackluster performance back home, these seasoned captains face a daunting challenge: to adapt to unfamiliar waters and techniques while competing against the skilled local fishermen. It’s a high-stakes venture that could lead to a lucrative catch or significant financial setbacks, making every moment on the water crucial in this intense battle for bluefin tuna supremacy.
