Bottom Feeders

There's money to be made in commercial fishing, even if the job is to catch freshwater fish that other trawlers rarely want -- bottom-feeding fish like carp and suckers. "Bottom Feeders" follows the lives and struggles of a group of fishermen as they battle the working conditions and one another while riding the lakes and rivers of the Midwest for the chance to net thousands of pounds of carp, sheepshead and buffalo fish. The operations are a mix of small-time businesses and multiman, automated teams, but all share the same goal: to catch the big haul and put food on the family table.
