This captain backs up every compliment with a criticism.

[@Erinski]

"He's become a damn good deck hand." Would've been nice if he said it to Zach instead of the camera. Fathers, amirite?

[@mikehunt9884]

just like jake anderson, only way he can be a captain is to get his own boat or go out on his own, guys like wild bill, or sig, they'll never leave the wheelhouse..

[@jonathansack6827]

Jake was never going to be the Captain of the Northwestern, that's a family business if there ever was one.

[@maxludlow6629]

Like literally any job. Start as the boy always be seen as the boy. You have to move on and UP

[@davidmcneil2296]

Zach is such an asset to this boat and would have been a lot lesser if they did not have him. It is so incredibly sad seeing that his father does not acknowledge or even see that fact. He is too old of a senile man to see what’s right in front of his face.

[@paleo704]

He bullied him

[@panchov3129]

Zach is a producte of a father who couldn't manage work and family and very selfish.

[@PollyAlice2000]

I will never understand why anybody has any respect whatsoever for “Wild Bill”. That man is a disaster waiting to happen. Super Donkey. Why anybody goes to work for him is beyond me. Something is seriously wrong with this man. Seriously. When he’s on, we change the channel.

[@MAGGOT_VOMIT]

I don't think Discovery knows how to spell Bill's last name. I swear every time they put it up on screen, it's spelled different. 🤣

[@davidmcneil2296]

I swear bill would have preferred to have Nick as his son then zach. It is so sad to see that because zach is such an amazing fisherman and individual that taught other younger fishermen.

[@PDGula-lk6dq]

I don't think its Zach. Bill seems to be bitter about his past and taking it out on Zach instead of dealing with his past. My guess, Bill must still have issues with the mother of Zach. I see it all of the time from parents of breakups!

[@panchov3129]

Bingo

[@KM-em9me]

These captain's don't have enough appreciation for the effort that deckhands put in just being there. It's easy to talk about drive and motivation when you're sitting in a chair watching over people who are working all day and night.

[@michaelparry9377]

All captains started at the bottom. To be a captain is to be responsible for life. Not easy at all..

[@danielworthington2949]

That is exactly how they started……….

[@KM-em9me]

@@danielworthington2949 Yeah, so they should have some appreciation for how dog tired these guys are all the time.

[@danielworthington2949]

@@KM-em9me if they had a soft captain they never would have been in that seat, they also have heaps of appreciation have you watched the show or just youtube clips?

[@KM-em9me]

@Daniel Worthington Recently only KZbin. I stopped watching t.v. years ago when we had an earthquake in my town and I later realised what an absolute waste of time watching television is.

[@lekoman]

It's pretty clear Zack's only out there cuz his dad is leaning on him to take over the family biz...

[@ryans413]

I wanna get Zack in the wheelhouse but he’s got a lot to learn. Well then get him in there so he can learn duh.

[@Wutzmename]

He doesn't like being around his father that much. Bill, like most fathers from that era, had instilled in them growing up that a man provides for his family and as fishermen, they're away from home a lot. He's acknowledged that fact but he provided for them. Private schools, nannies and a very comfortable life growing up. What more can you ask from a man, husband and father? Zach is a softer man because he was raised by his mother and nannies his whole life. It pu**ifies men.

[@ryans413]

@@TimeBandit2007 that’s true but communication is key all Bill would have to do is ask his son if he’s interested in learning if Zack says no that’s the end of it.

[@barbaramollmann5990]

Bill was always to hard on Zach.

[@frojd1990]

He always wanted Zach to be someone he wasnt.

Bills disappointed in his sons fishing but his son is disappointed in his dad being a dad . I can’t stand bill

[@family26ful]

Old bill is high. Slow eyes

[@KM-em9me]

I can't believe the Cape Caution is only 108ft . It seems way bigger than that from the captain's chair.

[@timothykappel198]

100ft is still pretty big especially when your on in but compared to the others on the show it's definitely smaller. Most crab boats are this size. They picked the biggest most successful boats to be on the show.

[@paleo704]

If he doesnt wanna do it, then he doesnt wanna do it. Shoulda showed Nick instead.

[@Shaddow88664]

Only clueless Bill...can watch his son save someone's life right in front of him and still have nothing good to say about his own son . God complex at its fullest

Wild Bill’ needs too look in the Mirror

[@townbeach3603]

Your out there all the time with your dad what's the difference if you're in the wheel house

[@lnr12241]

Why would zach want you stay out in that cold instead of getting in the wheel house? ?

[@elisefincher4478]

Bill picked nick over Zach and look what that got him just saying….

[@mistykeys8011]

My name is Misty. I am the mother of the 40yr man who was murdered in the middle of the day. He was driving from one job site to another. In the midst of this, I cot a call from his coworkers wife letting me know something just wasn’t right. One things to let you know at the beginning of the dash cam you can see that Daniel did change lanes to give the other auto . That same car gets behind him and right on his bumper. They say there a cup of some
