Season 6 Episode 24: Hooked on a New Fishing Career

Susumu Hidaka, 29 years old, is a fisherman in training. He is learning the trade from a well experienced master in a fishing port in Cape Sada on the western tip of Shikoku Island, Japan. After spending 10 years in Tokyo living a carefree life, Hidaka came to this town because he heard he could become an independent commercial fisherman in just 3 years. Things don't go as planned, though, and Hidaka finds the life of a fisherman harder than he imagined. His skills of operating a boat are still a bit clumsy. Despite this, Hidaka enjoys his new world and is excited about where his life is headed.
