10.2 Swordfish!, Part 2 A group of fishermen in Nova Scotia explain sustainable harpoon fishing of swordfish. 105 TU 05/07/13 08:00am 00:26:46 - (CC) × ST
10.2 River of Kings, Part 1 For millennia, the Nisqually Indians relied on Chinook salmon caught in the Nisqually River in Washington. A coalition of tribal leaders, private partners and government agencies works to restore the river from its source in the glaciers of Mount Rainier to the estuary that empties into Puget Sound. Led by the Nisqually tribe, the restoration aims to fill the river once again with abundant, magnificent wild salmon. (6 of 10) 106 TU 05/07/13 08:30am 00:26:46 - (CC) × ST

10.2 Trinidad's Turtle Giants After local leaders launched a crusade to end the slaughter of Trinidad's thousand-pound leatherback turtles, the turtles were transformed from shark bait to tourist attraction.

10.2 Cod Comeback? In the rich fishing grounds of New England and Canada, it seemed as if cod would never run out--until they did. Fishing communities from Newfoundland to Massachusetts fell apart. Widespread closures in the 1990s aimed to let the cod recover, but it's been a long wait. Carl Safina goes fishing to find some of the first signs that the famous codfish just might, indeed, be coming back. (9 of 10) 109 TU 05/21/13 08:00am 00:26:46 - (CC) × ST
10.2 Scourge of the Lionfish Lionfish are beautiful, colorful reef fish found throughout the Indian and Pacific oceans - that's the good news. The bad news is they're now found all over the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic coasts of North and South America as well. Alien to those waters, lionfish are the perfect invasive species - aggressive, without predators, prolific breeders and tolerant of a wide range of conditions. Numbering in the millions, they are damaging to native fish species. Carl Safina dives in the Bahamas to help clear lionfish from reefs, sits down to a lionfish dinner in the Yucatan and joins a lionfish-only fishing derby in Florida.

36.1 Destination Baja A local fishing group talks about creating a successful whale-watching coop that now caters to tourists from all over the world. The co-op runs not only the tourist accommodations, but also oversees the lagoon, regulates access to the whales, and preserves most of the area as a quiet sanctuary for the whales and their calves.
