Documentary series about a group of trawler fishermen in Peterhead, Scotland. John Alexander, working alone on his tiny boat, finds himself in trouble when the weather turns and the seas run high. Out in the treacherous North Atlantic, Alan Watt is bouncing back from his last disastrous haul. He finds himself with a giant catch of lucrative monkfish, but when the main winch jams the entire trip is in jeopardy and the skipper must fix the problem. Chaz Brown, the youngest skipper in the fleet, has endured the fishing trip from hell - with rough seas, ropes in the propeller, lost nets and barely a prawn to show for their trouble. Can his youthful exuberance reverse the ship's fortunes?
