Adventure is their call crab is their prey and a one hundred million dollar plunder is their reward! In the far northern reaches of the planet a rare breed of extreme fishermen hunt the Bering Sea. Adventure is their call crab is their prey and a one hundred million dollar plunder is their reward. Series 7 of Deadliest Catch opens with footage of the crews holding an informal memorial for Captain Phil Harris before the start of the King crab season. In this season the Kodiak the Time Bandit the Northwestern the Wizard and the Cornelia Marie (now under Captain Derrick Ray) are joined by two new boats: the Seabrooke (Captain Scott Campbell Jr.) and the Ramblin' Rose (Captain Elliot Neese). Then in Series 8 two skippers square off in a high stakes rivalry and the mysterious collapse of a deckhand summons a daring rescue at sea as an already vicious king crab season gets underway. A depleted fishery triggers restrictions that force captains to take huge gambles on remote and volatile fishing grounds to the far north while a violent arctic hurricane forecasters call 'The Storm of the Century' descends on the Bering Sea. Those brave enough to stay behind and fish the risky waters are subject to some of the best crab fishing the region has ever known.
