Plot Synopsis

COLD WATER CAPTAINS is a one-hour reality series that follows six fishing crews off the coast of Newfoundland in the perilous North Atlantic. Plagued by hurricanes and icebergs, mechanical failures or damaged gear, and the uncertainty of just where exactly the catch is hiding, every day is a high-stakes game. But the goal is always the same: fill the hatch and make money -- as much and as fast as possible. Hometown pride and friendly competition rule the day, but when push comes to shove, they're all part of the same fiercely-protective fishermen's fraternity. The Weather Channel aired the U.S. premiere of COLD WATER CAPTAINS on Sunday, June 1, 2014 at 10pm ET/PT, showing the program as part of its "Natural Drama" programming block, which aired Sunday nights.
