Andy
Phil was closest and on the spot to get between Keith and Johnathan during their spat at the Burn Barrel.
According to Capt Johnathan, what's the key ingredient that makes the Slime Banks a prime crabbing spot?
warmer bottom currents
nearby fish breeding grounds
scallop beds
As a seasoned captain like Johnathan will tell you, scallops are a favorite food of King crabs so you'll often find them together.
What kind of fish does Freddy tear into when he's celebrating the Cornelia Marie's first big King crab haul?
cod
halibut
salmon
As they're pulling in the fat pots of a string that will eventually yield 15,000 pounds of crab, Freddy grabs a codfish from a pot for a celebratory blood feast.
What issue starts the fight that breaks out between the Hansen brothers in the first week of King crab season?
soaking time
pot stacking
baiting pots
When Sig orders him to clear the pots away from the crab tank chutes, Edgar sees no reason to comply and insists that the crew can get the same thing done without the extra work of stacking pots.
What stake does Freddy put up against Jake Anderson for a miss during his hook throwing initiation on the Cornelia Marie?
$100
A carton of smokes
Free beers for a night at the Elbow Room Bar in Dutch
Freddy bets Jake a hundred bucks that he'll miss with the hook. Even though Jake eventually loses the bet he does such a great job that he earns the title "Macho Man" from his proud Samoan mentor.
Even though Scottie teases him for being a sissy, Bandit deckhand Eddie Uwekoolani decides on a protective measure to counter jellyfish stings. What is it?
putting stinger proof jelly on his face
wearing protective goggles
staying away from checking the bait in pulled pots
This season Eddie wore goggles when the Time Bandit was pulling pots in the Slime Banks. He made no apologies for his caution because he'd had enough of being stung in the eyes.
What extra ingredient gets added to the breakfast Jake Harris whips up for the Northwestern crew?
flaming hot sauce
ex-lax
tobacco spit
Although it looked like a little errant chew accidentally fell into the potatoes, we'll never know if Jake was just sharing a little spite because of Edgar's hazing.
What cargo item clogs up the Time Bandit's pumps and causes the flooding of the boat's forepeak midway through King crab season?
spare rubber gaskets
onions
emergency flares
An errant case of onions got loose in the bilge and clogged the intake valves on the pumps.
Which deckhand was most upset by the sight of Jake Anderson struggling to stay above water during the Jake transfer?
Matt Bradley

Although Matt admitted that he never wants to end up floating in a survival suit, it was Nick Mavar who remembered losing a friend overboard while salmon fishing just months before.
What surprise does fate spring on the struggling Kodiak when it's off-loading it's catch in Dutch?
dead crab in the tanks
a fine for incorrect quota reporting

What's the name of the treacherous body of water that Time Bandit has to navigate to get home for its final King crab offload?

Cold Bay Narrows
Nunivak Channel
Using all his skill and experience - and plenty of lookouts - Captain Johnathan guided the Bandit through False Pass, essentially surfing his way south on powerful tidal currents.
How much money did Captain Monte say full-share deckhand Gary Soper would likely make in the week of Bairdi fishing that the Wizard tacked on at the end of King season?
$5,000
$10,000
$15,000
Because the price on bairdi crabs has gone up recently, crews can earn top dollar - in this case, $15,000 for a full-share deckhand.
