Watch "Bottom Feeders" with Fubo for $0 Today
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.

Life Below Zero
When bears, wolves and foxes are your only neighbors, life can be pretty lonely. Add minus-60-degree days and a constant battle for the most basic necessities, and you have the daily challenges of people who live in remote corners of Alaska. This series takes viewers deep into an Alaskan winter to meet tough, resilient residents as they try to stay one step ahead of storms and man-eating beasts to survive the season. When the closest neighbor is more than 300 miles away, these Alaskans subsist solely on what is hunted and foraged. They catch fish for currency in bartering for supplies, or use their packs of sled dogs for transportation. Also highlighted is a time of year not always part of what viewers see in Alaska: spring! Ice is breaking, animals are waking, and residents face new tests before deep cold returns.

Port Protection Alaska
The producers of National Geographic Channel's hit series "Life Below Zero" are behind "Port Protection Alaska," which profiles individuals trying to survive way above the Lower 48. Surrounded by the North Pacific, Port Protection is a remote community tucked into the northwest corner of Prince of Wales Island, Alaska. The approximately 100 residents who call the rugged, unforgiving land home push the limits of survival, living an isolated and risky existence of self-reliance with no roads, government or law enforcement. However, they think the risk is worth the profound reward: a world of beauty with the security of community without the constraints of bureaucracy.
