What the hell happened to Sig?!

The guy is clearly having a heart attack. The dude probably smokes multiple packs of cigarettes a day.

He is complaining about his chest and arm?! Hello Producer? Time to call the coast guard.

He had a heart attack and it was in the national news when it happened. He is doing a lot better now.

That was an intense episode and I can't believe how close Mandy was to seeing her dad go through that in person

True that. I was just watching her face on The Bait while Sig was talking about it and they were running the footage on it and she was on the edge. She really shouldn't have been sitting there reliving it all again.

Is he going to fish next season?

That would be just crazy.

It's not the fishing causing the heart attack. it's the smoking, and drinking red bull like water.

And constant sitting, no sleep, unhealthy diet. But yes, 2-3 pack of smokes a day doesn't help it.

It sounds like the very same road another captain took to his doom. The stress lack of exercise and diet is a health red flag for these guys.
