The Catch

Meet Phil, the skipper of a large Gill netter called the ‘Govenek of Ladram’.

Follow two boats of very different fortunes.

There's war brewing at sea for Skipper Phil and the crew of the Govenek.

Andrew 'Drew' McLeod, captain of The Van Dijck, has a hard time convincing his crew to stick around.

The Govenek of Ladram has been docked in the harbor for seven weeks undergoing a complete refit.

In the North Sea off the coast of Scotland, rumor has it the fish are plentiful and the paychecks are high.

Drew is struggling to maintain the business he and his father have run since the late 1970s.

After a few days stuck in port fixing electrical issues, Phil can finally take the boat out to sea.
