DESCRIPTION:

Pre-eminent ocean explorer and elite fisherman Chris Fischer is on a quest to decode the secrets of the deadliest creatures in the ocean in SHARK WRANGLERS, a new series premiering Sunday, July 1 at 10 p.m. on HISTORY. The series chronicles the most ambitious shark expedition in history. The crew must track down the world's most deadly - yet threatened - sharks, maneuver them onto the cradle of their 126-foot boat in rolling waters, and tag each one - by hand. Their goal is 50 sharks in 40 days - a near impossible mission that will test the team's resolve as they battle through every conceivable setback.
