Summary
This six-part observational documentary series takes us aboard working fishing vessels in the Irish fleet to meet the men who pilot these boats - the skippers. It follows the crews in pursuit of their lucrative catch, which involves long absences from home, 24 hour shifts, huge waves, 130 km-per-hour gales, and the unpredictability of the ocean itself.
