I missed AFTC, I love Edgar since I had that weird dream about him. I will have to watch for it now. Do they reshow the after the catch shows? I really had quit watching them since Mike is not on there. I am glad I am not alone Tess, I am like a school girl when Mike says that. I laugh when Phil says it but Mike just sends me into giggles. Landi that is way cool, congrats!

I wonder if Phil and Sig really will do a Jake/Jake trade...that would be very interesting. I also find it interesting that Phil would trust his son with Sig...speaks a lot about how much respect Sig has among the other captains.

I really enjoyed this last After The Catch, even without Mike. My favorite part was when Capt Keith was taking his surfing lesson in a black and yellow body suit, and the cute sexy little instructor called him "My little bumble bee"...LOL

I thought Capt Keith's wife was beautiful...they certainly tend to go for blondes, don't they?

I've been out of the loop for a while but caught up with a lot of this seasons shows on the marathon over the weekend - loving the show yet again!! I wish ALL the captains and deckhands would quit smoking - I know it's more of a release for boredom/stress, etc and a HABIT now, but it's not good for them. My dh watched 30 seconds of the show and got up laughing and asked, 'How do they keep the cigs in their mouths while they're unloading, sorting, etc?" Then, "Do you really find this that interesting?" My answer, "YES!" My biggest question so far is this: why didn't Keith of the Wizard put the tarp on the pots BEFORE leaving the harbor? They all knew they were getting into ice/spray, etc - they brought the special tarp for that purpose, but why wait?? I know Capt. Keith was devastated by the injuries - and it's going to haunt them both physically and mentally for a while - but I just don't understand the reasoning behind waiting to put the tarp on.

They never explained that, but my own personal thought is that they didn't put the tarp up before they left the harbor because if they ended up getting to their destination before the ice accumulated then they would have to take it down and waste time offloading the pots...but as we can see that didn't turn out to be the case.

Roxip, that's a good reason. It'll work for me. Thank you. Now I can rest about it. It may or may not be the exact reasoning, but I just needed a logical explanation. Sigh. Now I have one. Thank you!

Plus maybe wind shear -- that they speed as fast as the can to get to their spot whre they want to fish. Maybe they knew they had 24 hours of driving (sailing) before they hit the area where the ice would start to build up. that 24 hours with a tarp could have cost extra time and gas if there was a hefty head wind....

I just went and read up on something I knew nothing about. You know how they kept throwing back the crabs that were losing legs from the cold? Well, I always thought they threw them back to die... But unless they lose their pincer legs (the ones they eat with), their legs will grow back. They can grow back pincer legs too, but they would starve to death first from not being able to eat.

Thanks, Naja, for bringing that info to our attention. I didn't know they'd survive and grow more legs, I thought they were just thrown overboard as food for other ocean creatures...

That's interesting and good to know. I too thought they were just future crab food.

Oh, yeah duh! I knew it was Edgar. Brain freeze back when I was posting about the whole marry me again part. I adore Edgar. Next to Sig, he's my favorite on the entire show.

I go back and forth...I get tired of the Hilstrand brothers mugging for the camera but when they aren't aware of the camera I really like them...and Phil I like most of the time but he gets too nervous for me...Sig is so intense and Edgar is scrumptious...LOL!

The Hillstrands would be fun to go out with and muck it up with BUT send me home with Edgar any night of the week I also think Josh is a cutie and then think about how young he probably is and stop myself I found all of the After the Catch' online today. I had not seen any of them. I watched them back to back and really enjoyed them. Andy Hillstrand really impressed me. He seems like a good guy. My memory has a ton of issues these days so help me out.....when I first started watching this show there was a woman on Sig's boat. I thought that was his wife. That wasn't the woman on the last After the Catch that I remember from the boat. New wife? or am I just confused as always?

Thanks Jr As soon as you said it I remembered, but then when I looked her up it still isn't who I am thinking of. I do remember the lady on the Mav but this woman I am pretty sure had blonde hair and had a thick accent, anyone remember someone like that on one of the boats?

Okay, I don't know whether I want to drool over little Jake's beautiful blue eyes or adopt him...what a sad episode in his life and how mature was he in how he handled it?

I missed After the Catch last night. Not sure whether The Colony was a good enough replacement.
