Deadliest Catch’s Matt Bradley was offered role on boat after he issued plea to support family
Matt Bradley, a well-known deckhand from “Deadliest Catch,” recently faced a challenging situation that led him to issue a plea for support to help his family. In response to his plea, he was offered a role on a boat, providing him with an opportunity to continue working and support his family financially.
Bradley’s story highlights the difficulties faced by many in the fishing industry, where the work is not only dangerous but also often unpredictable in terms of income. His plea for support underscores the importance of community and the willingness of others to step up and offer help in times of need.
The offer of a role on a boat is a significant lifeline for Bradley, allowing him to maintain his livelihood and ensure the well-being of his family. This development is a testament to the tight-knit nature of the fishing community and their readiness to support one another through tough times.

Deadliest Catch long-time deckhand, Matt Bradley, was offered the chance to work on The Saga. Many Discovery Channel viewers were confused about this random job, as he worked on The Northwestern.
Matt Bradley had left The Northwestern to run his businesses with his wife. However, due to circumstances they could not control, the Deadliest Catch star had to return to the Bering Sea.
Matt Bradley offered The Saga role
Matt Bradley was offered a deckhand role on Jake Anderson’s The Saga, before the boat was ripped away from him, following the fault of a business partner. However, he now has The Northwestern in his bio.
He also has a job working in PR for Sky Vapor, while looking after his four daughters. Matt doesn’t feature on Deadliest Catch season 20, but childhood friend Edgar Hansen introduced him to crab fishing.
Despite feuding with Jake on The Northwestern, the boat owner ended up offering Matt a deckhand job because he needed to make money to support his family by catching crabs.
Jake and Matt had explosive feud
When Matt was talking to the hydro guy, and seemingly called Jake slow on The Northwestern, Anderson punched him twice. Captain Edgar Hansen then said whoever threw the first punch is done.
Five years previously, tension between the two boiled over, when Jake says Matt “choked him” on deck. Matt replied, “That was like ten years ago,” but the captain had delivered an ultimatum to them both.
He told them, “Whoever swings next, you’re gone.” And when the incident eventually took place again five years later, Jake was fired, but ended up buying his own boat, The Saga.
Deadliest Catch star puts family first
Matt had to put his pride aside when Jake offered him a job on his boat. He wrote on Facebook, “I had taken a job working in the drug and alcohol treatment field. The job did not work out.”
“My vape shops were under attack from the state. The Northwestern had a full crew.. And at the last minute Jake had an open spot on the saga. Was actually really fun fishing with him,” he added.
Matt continued, “And the boat with all the repairs he has done to it is a pretty good fishing vessel..” Every summer, the deckhand takes time off crabbing to focus on his businesses and ride his motorcycle.
