Don't mean what you see is real tho'
I have comm tuna buddies who know a couple of the players in Wicked Tuna. It's wicked all right. Wicked phony. I have it on good authority that virtually ALL of the 'fights' are made up, as required by the producers to jack up the drama factor.
I mean, fishing giants is amazingly exciting--when you're tight. When you're not, it can be pretty GD boring...
Tuna fishing offshore. Slow day.
