Plot Synopsis

PACIFIC WARRIORS: LORE OF THE DEEP is a series of enhanced episodes of PACIFIC WARRIORS, which follows seven teams of kayak fishermen in Hawaii, as these men and women risk their lives to catch 100-plus pound fish, because one fresh catch can reel in $1,500 dollars or more. Beneath the pristine waters of Hawaii, ancient volcanoes have forged steep underwater cliffs, resulting in the best deep-sea fishing in the world. For centuries, generations of Hawaiians have caught these monster fish from small, hand-made canoes, using nothing more than a fishing pole and their bare hands. Now, this group is re-inventing that ancient art. Using primitive means, the fearless fishermen and women are regularly taken on what they call "Hawaiian Sleigh Rides," which occur when they hook monster fish that drags them out to sea -- sometimes as much as 10 miles or more. They also fend off sharks regularly, deeming them "tax men," which are looking for an easy meal.
