NEGirl April 10, 2015 Share April 10, 2015 I agree about Josh. I don't think he ever wanted to be a captain. Then the money and tv fame came in. I disagree about Jake. I remember when Mike Rowe interviewed Jake and Phil in a rest. in the begining of season two. Jake was only 19, and he stated he wanted to be a crab fisherman and someday own numerous boats. He also stated he had crab fished the year before on another boat right after he graduated from high school when he was only 18. He was not on a boat being filmed than. I remember seeing Jake throw the hook numerous times on the CM an he had no problem. If I remember right, it had something to do with "the Norgw. way" vs the way Phil had taught him. Remember the NW also did the stringing of the nets different than what was done on the CM. As I said in the earlier post, Jake has been clean and sober for months now. He completed rehab and sober living. I think if he can stay clean he will be the one who does the fishing with Casey. Josh will hang around as long as the cameras are there. When the show is over he'll be gone. If Jake stays clean, and hoppefully he will, he will be the one on the boat full time while Josh is the "owner". Just my 2 cents worth........ 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2660-small-talk-all-trawling-no-trolling/page/3/#findComment-1021129

kassa April 13, 2015 Share April 13, 2015 I zipped through the marathon (basically skipping through all the boats except the Northwestern and explicit scenes from the other ones I wanted to rewatch). I did watch all the new commentary, and I did see scenes I had not seen before, even though they were not marked "new footage." Once again I was touched by Josh pulling it together while his father was dying, but then the whole Derrick Ray thing sunk him (with me) again. And his talking heads didn't help. He's all about posturing about himself as captain, and what it's like being in the captain's chair with your face pressed against the window in the midst of stormy seas. He leaves out the part where Casey (who apparently owns the boat as much as he does) is running the boat and he's in the non-active chair while he's doing that anxious looking out the window part. The other captains must just be completely disgusted. They started last season openly giving credit to Casey and making somewhat snide remarks, and I can only imagine what this season will be like. But since I assume these talking heads were filmed AFTER this season which is about to be aired, Josh isn't about to be humbled (even if he should be by whatever happens). Anybody know what quota Casey's bringing to the party? Because if he's got a 25% share, and it's HIS quota they're fishing, and leasing the rest, then Josh is as much a captain as the Mutual Cooperative Bank of Seattle, or whoever else owns the note on the boat. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2660-small-talk-all-trawling-no-trolling/page/3/#findComment-1030135

AZChristian April 13, 2015 Share April 13, 2015 Once again I was touched by Josh pulling it together while his father was dying, but then the whole Derrick Ray thing sunk him (with me) again. We got to meet Captain Derrick in Ketchikan last year. He didn't talk much about Deadliest Catch, other than to say that things are sometimes edited to tell the story that the producers want to tell. I felt like he was getting a bad edit the first time I saw the episodes with him, and everything I've read since then supports that. Example: Derrick said something about going to a different area where other boats were having success with pulling in crabs. Josh's response was, "We're not crab fishing. We're filming a TV show. We've filmed what we need to film, and are going back to the harbor." Now THAT sounds more like Josh. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2660-small-talk-all-trawling-no-trolling/page/3/#findComment-1030150
walnutqueen April 13, 2015 Share April 13, 2015 I always thought that Derrick got a raw deal. He was, from what I've read, a well respected captain who intended to help Phil's boys find crab. What he encountered instead was Josh mugging for the cameras and Jake doing drugs, while the rest of the crew seemed to be reenacting Mutiny on the Bounty. Josh subsequently treated him shamefully after covering for his drug addled brother and posturing like a fool on After the Catch. I don't blame Derrick one bit for wanting to punch Josh's smug mug. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2660-small-talk-all-trawling-no-trolling/page/3/#findComment-1030187

NEGirl April 13, 2015 Share April 13, 2015 Casey own 25% of the CM, the same as Phil did when the boat was owned by Cornelia Devlin. I saw on a "live chat" from the DC last year that Casey said they are using some of his quota and Josh owns a very small amount of quota. Casy said Josh was still the majority owner. It will be interesting to see how Casey and Josh get along. Josh is in love with the idea of being an owner/captain but does not want to put the time or work to become a true captain. Truthfully, I think Jake would make a better captain if he can stay clean. He has been clean and sober for months now and completed rehab and sober living. I think he may have fished opies. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2660-small-talk-all-trawling-no-trolling/page/3/#findComment-1030333
Neurochick April 13, 2015 Share April 13, 2015 Maybe Josh should just be an owner and Jake the captain. The only problem is that Josh wants to be on camera. I can't say I blame him though, I mean he's on camera, he's getting girls, guys are buying him drinks, to him it's all good.

kassa April 14, 2015 Share April 14, 2015 (edited) I just miss Mike Rowe and After the Catch. The Bait is so awkward to watch, and doesn't really result in any candid moments. I loved the "around the table" format, because you'd see people's various reactions to what was being said, and it ended up being more real and full of banter. On The Bait they're reading cue cards and hamming it up and while there are glimpses of the old candor, it's just not the same. For all the "everybody hates Keith!" editing in previous years, to me it was telling that when Phil was recounting his pulmonary embolism experience, he said he called Keith "because you're the one I trust." And you'd see Jonathan relate some old running around on his wife story, and see Sig kind of flinch. Was the last "After the Catch" the one with the Harrises and Derrick Ray?
