Another high-stakes season ofDeadliest Catchis about to begin, and the action is taking place in the most remote destination yet. In Season 21, the fan-favorite captains and their crews head to Adak Island — a remote and “unforgiving” location, according toCaptain Sig Hansen.

“When fishermen discover monster red king crab in the far west,a gold rush-style race ignites among the Dutch Harbor fleet.To claim their share of the billion-dollar bounty, captains and crews must brave unforgiving 50-foot seas to reach abandoned Adak Island, venturing farther west than anyone has dared in over 30 years and beyond the bounds of rescue,” according to Discovery Channel. “Navigating through unfamiliar territory to secure the lucrative haul, the crews face extreme conditions and major ship malfunctions that put them in serious life-threatening situations, leaving the fleet at the mercy of the tumultuous western Bering Sea.”
