Swords: Life On The Line

Swords: Life On The Line

Swords: Life on the Line enters the high-risk world of New England's long line fishermen.  These men -and a woman - are gamblers, risking all to catch an elusive prey in some of the most dangerous waters on the planet. They are uniformly tough and resilient, and they need to be because every day could be their last.

Follow these crews as they carry on the traditions of gruelling fishing, big seas and even bigger egos, as Swords: Life on the Line takes you inside the lives of four brave fishermen and their crews as they battle for “the big one” on the high seas of the icy North Atlantic.
