Chinese fishing vessels are poaching fish at every country’s waters. The Equator navy captured a Chinese fishing vessel near Easter Island packed full dead shark
And it's worse for smaller Nations. Especially on the western South American coast. The Chinese fishing ships, (not boats, massive ships) wait until dark, then rush into the territorial waters to poach. They have NO rules or limits. They take everything! Nothing is too small or too endangered. It's an all out theft of other nations coastal resources. They over fished their home waters so now let's take from everyone else. Remember China is roughly 17,000 miles from Ecuador. That's about 45 days at sea, one way! Tells you how desperate they are for food and money. And Winnie the Pooh will tell the press that those boats never crossed into foreign waters...oh no, China would never do that.
@@malcontender6319 that's exactly what the Australian Border Force and Royal Australian Navy started doing. They take the crew and burn their boats at sea.
Coast guard doesn't enforce fishing regs. Fishing regs are enforced by fish and game in the states And DFO in Canada not Coast guard. My dad was a dfo officer then handed his badge in and became a Coast guard employee. I'm a fisherman
yee this show highkey goofy they talking about how dangerous it is (which it kinda is) then they do this shit and set off fireworks to "scare them off" what did they think its a fishing boat with cannons on it they try to make this shit dramatic asf
Yeah, you have illegal Russian and Chinese fishing boats violating coastal Waters. The Coast Guard catches them off of Alaska, Hawaii, California, and Washington state. They seized the boats and arrest the crews.
It's a lots of them,dozens of them until USCG seized their boats.some of them fight back trying ramp the coast guard vessels. More people didn't understand this situation,for me & every fishermans or skippers in Alaska it is such like a threat.
This is not real... or not how they are depicting atleast. That is not what a radar contact looks likes. And they are firing those fireworks at eachother. Maybe that was the idea to make him think they were armed and fighting? But he would be seeing their nav lights from miles out. Vessels do not run with deck lights on and turning them off would make no difference. And no vessel ever gets as close as they show in the show, especially not in this scene. They always act like they randomly come upon eachother
Interesting bc for the 29+yrs I was out every single commercial fishing boat I ever seen transiting had every deck light on all the time, they’re always lit up like a small city making it hard to determine the aspect of the vsl.
@@kingslickster9841 You should do some study on maritime activities... Why is it hard for you to accept that a commercial network would ever try to make a mountain out of a molehill? It's almost like they want viewers... I did not say crabbing was easy or safe. I commented that the show has a lot of manufactured drama, just like every other program you watch for entertainment.
GENERAL QUARTERS, GENERAL QUARTERS, ALL HANDS MAN YOUR BATTLE STATIONS! The route of transit is up and forward starboard side, down and aft to the port side!
So much BS not even funny. They have no idea who the guy is or even what type of boat. They assume he is a poacher and ship that big has no problem seeing further than 6 miles on radar. My small 23 ft boat with radar dome can see a lot more than that and I am only 9ft off the water.
I hate that everyone says that if you have your ais off you are doing something illegally noaa makes everyone fishing to have a tracking device and ais so if the ais is off the government is still tracking you
@@AccountInactiveActually you might wan't to give a shit what your biggest allies and trade partners think. Luckily most educated people in the U.S. undertand this. But if "you" believe in this scripted shit...well I don't expect much.
Those lil fireworks won't do shit but make the poachers go ohhh ahhh. Ya need the two or three inch mortar fireworks. The kind that are loaded in a reusable tube and go thunk when they launch. Have someone play the star spangled banner on loud speaker while defending the area. Those kind got range. The ship never got close enough to get scared of being hit or anything.
For all those that sit here and comment on how fake every this is. I want all those people to remember those exact words amd flipping remember all those lives lost while you're sitting in the comfort of your own home or a restaurant enjoy crab... ..THEN TELL ME HOW FAKE EVERY THING ABOUT THIS SHOW OR ON THIS SHOW IS...
Wow... that was the worst, fake, staged thing I've seen on this show. Might as well be Airplane Repo. "Turn your lights off! But lets leave the light at the top of the boat on. On and leave the lights all over the deck on, they'll never see that!" Jesus H...
Keith is scared of his own shadow Jonathan put him in his place remember that key John was getting ready to stomp your ass on the show it was great and you back down like a little girl he would have tore you up

Next season: Captain Keith installs torpedo tubes onto the Wizard so it never happens again!
Next Season: Discovery channel doubles-up on the bullshit nothing-burgers, like this one.
Well that boat did used to be a navy ship that Keith converted to a crab boat lol.
I'd like to hear Mike narrate that one!
I love there’s someone who says check our fireworks stock before we leave the dock
Well there no firework laws at sea plus the only danger is to your own boat but you could control that issue.
Chinese fishing vessels are poaching fish at every country’s waters. The Equator navy captured a Chinese fishing vessel near Easter Island packed full dead shark
You can’t even spell ECUADOR correctly dummy! No such thing as the equator navy
I say arrest the crews and sink the boats.
It's Russians doing it. Look at the map.

Lol. Did they think you were a Mini-destroyer disguised as a crab boat?
If you thought someone was illegally fishing why wouldn't you call the US Coast Guard and alert them?
thats not fun tv
TV that's why

Coast guard is 3 hours away thars why
Coast gaurd isnt going to head this far out over 1 vessel and most of this scene is not real
“Hey we’re in the middle of the ocean in frigid waters with another boat that doesn’t know we’re here….let’s cut all our lights off!”
More staged bullsh!t! This show is ridiculous! FAKE AS FLICK!
yee this show highkey goofy they talking about how dangerous it is (which it kinda is) then they do this shit and set off fireworks to "scare them off" what did they think its a fishing boat with cannons on it they try to make this shit dramatic asf
It’s so they aren’t identified by the enemy to be an official fishing vessel. If they are identified. They come over, and they do some bad shit period
If they dont know them they could be stealing crab pots etc

@@TinoNate Stay safe out there.
Americans do the same though.
@@mithrandirthegrey7644 No, there aren't fleets of American fishermen purposely illegally fishing within a foreign country's coastal waters.
@@mithrandirthegrey7644 ummm where? American fishing boats can't really go anywhere else, and haven't overfished our waters
R.I.P Phil. He was the G.O.A.T, then Jonathan then Sig.
the real goats aren't on TV
Phil harboured Jake who did that awful thing
@@enthusiastisch1922
Most do for their kids.
Phil Harris = Bering sea legend.😊
If there's one thing poachers are afraid of, it's...fireworks...
Thank god they remembered to pack their fireworks for their fishing trip.
And they sure didn't forget to light them until the other boat was still over a mile and a half away.
Should have called the CG they would love to make there aquaintance😂😂
What? They're fighting off pirates now lmfao
These hate comments must be the poacher boat crew
“Wizard runs from nobody” yea except John hillstrand hahaha
Because Time Bandit is the real OG ship in the Bering Sea, those guys are literally PACKED :D
Remember when this was show about fishing crab?
Remember when China and Russia weren't trying to start trouble with everyone else
That's an awfully simplistic view
The WIZARD + THE ALTUNIAN LADY =A WHOOPIN
Next season keith starts crabbing with the USS Missouri
I love watching the comments be so ever toxic as possible. Lmao
If the Capt of that boat coming g in knew it was Kieth he was dealing with he wouldn’t just kept on coming and called Johnathan to kick his ass. 😂
6:34 can someone please tell me what Rick is saying cause I don’t understand it I hear depends on
Imagine starting WW3 with fireworks
Russia hasn't got in them to start WW3 with USA. Lets face it, they are struggling with Ukraine.
You'd have to believe that anyone that wasn't 100 feet away could actually see their fireworks and rolling ocean... I highly doubt that
cant start ww3 when chinese presumably vessels wont ever report it because they arent supposed to be here
China aint starting WW3 over some expandable menials and trash fishing boats. Its funny you think they care that much
China aint starting WW3 over some expandable menials and trash fishing boats. Its funny you think they care that much
Love it Keith. Love it!!
When are we upgrading to Space Cruisers and whaling out in the deep black parts of interstellar space?
Imagine being shot at by crazy americans with flares lol
🤣🤣🤣😁🤣🤣🤣
Imagine a fixed scenario for good TV 👍👍
I’d just shoot flares back? Tf
The producers did imagine it. It'd be a really cool story if it was real.
Imagine being 4mi away and watching Americans give you a fireworks show?
When did this show become the real housewives of the bearing sea? Ffs 🤦🏻♂️
Look up exclusive economic zones and how China and Russia are constantly violating them
Whats wrong with a dramatization of a true scenario?
I gained so much respect for keith for the grateful dead sticker.
It’s like Keith took a page out of both the Northwestern’s books, using fireworks to teach a lesson, as they did with the Time Bandit.
Fake ass TV, good job producers.
Just a navy ship becoming a fishing vessel
That was awesome 👌 👏
So who’s fishing with his wife while being tricked into chasing a ghost boat?
Deadliest catch is soooo much better since they started faking peculiar scenarios and pushing weird social messages

Just a bit of manufactured drama...
Nothing manufactured about it. As real as it gets
@@kingslickster9841 Had it been an actual, or even perceived illegal vessel, both of those captains would have radioed the Coast Guard...
@@sr20ser. obviously they did

@@sr20ser. I'm sure they notified the coast guard
Like that wasn't the other chase boat. (Camera boat), I haven't watch this show in a few years and this little clip isn't bringing me back
Mind you talking on UHF he can hear everything they are saying.
I love it, thanks.
Why have they got their radars only set to six mile radius. Even a cheap shit one should do 18mile easily
Them jungle rockets are crazzzzyyyyy
Dude we were shooting that kind of s*** at each other in high school😂
That showed em i guess? lol
Did they report the illegal to the Coast Guard?
No, because this was scripted drama.
Darken ship Darken ship hands to action stations !! Potatoes are really effective at seeing off the enemy try that next time. 😄
fake as a 3 dollar bill...
Pretty Fricken Cool . . .
Scripted drama.
Yeah....seems alittle "made for tv" drama. Is it ratings week?
subtitles be like "makes American noises"
Do they not call the coast guard on situations like that? Record their positions and let the CG know?? I'd send over something a little more harsh.
Supposed to. But they need drama so you watch this nonsense.
More staged bullsh!t! This show is ridiculous!
Coasties have to catch them in the act. Also the Bering sea is massive and they only have so many Cutters for the area.
I don’t think USCG enforces fishing regulations. That’s a job for DFW.
Haha is this a new season? Season 19?
The coast guard doesn’t view kindly of a fishing vessel turning off its AIS.
Would like to see return fire from AKs
They sure scared the producers in that pleasure boat 😂

Where they find so many hillbillies😂😂
Nice bad ass 💪💪💪
This is how accidents happen. That guy always shows his lack of intelligence.
Since when did the deadliest catch start making sea of thieves content???
This show has gotten to staged to be good anymore,.
Just Hunting wow 😮😮😮
Wow. Ships 2 miles off and they shoot fireworks at him that only go 100 feet? Oh yeah, that foreign ship is Terrified!!!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I hate that everyone says that if you have your ais off you are doing something illegally noaa makes everyone fishing to have a tracking device and ais so if the ais is off the government is still tracking you
This stupid fake drama crap. I hate this show has gone down that path.
So they are stealing pots. Or setting their own?
..
I guess calling the coast guard doesn't make for good television? That was pretty dumb.
What nonsense
Reminds me of north vietmese regulars
Funny, yet our Border Farce are too busy being a taxi service, instead of protecting our shore, and seas 😂😂😂😂😂
is did UK or Irish language
Get the potato cannons ready! Poachers suck!
Next time they install machine gun turrets.
Silly
Didn’t actually happen. Kinda sad that these bad ass fishermen sold out to the big tv money. Scripted bullshit for the last 5 plus years.
Another reason I have stopped watching this show. Nothing but personal drama, and manufactured drama. This show is seeing its last seasons.
so cringe
Fly a drone?
This screaming like a girl is always interesting to see for Europeans, or maybe even the rest of the world. Anyone knows what the history of that is?
I'm american and i don't understand it either

we need to get 2A out there and show china our fishermen have the right to defend there country to ...
Maybe maybe not

Scripted and ridiculous.
i like that! watch the ropes!
americans without guns is a sad state of affair.. poachers won't come back if poachers can't swim
These old Goats all die of stress and excessive cigarettes. Fake drama we all don't need.
Fake
I don't like hothead Keith !! I feel sorry for his brother, Monte, having to work for him.
It's hilarious how scripted this show is.
This was like definitely staged but its still fun lol
