Capt. Phil Spotted in Gloucester Recently
Thanks to blogger, Capt Joe at GoodMorning Gloucester, we get to glimpse Phil in Gloucester meeting fans and signing merchandise. ‘After the Catch’ was just filmed in Gloucester in the last week or so and we’ll be seeing more of Capt Phil, the rest of the skippers, and some of the deckhands, starting on Tuesday, June 17th! Can’t wait!

Hey, Phil, do what you gotta do man, and get better. You, along with all the DC guys, have had the unique opportunity to touch people’s lives just by sharing your own with them. Because of that, you have many people who care about you and your boys. Kinda makes you feel a little like Jimmy Stewart, huh? Thanks for all the fun so far, see ya soon

Dear Phil,
Yes I know you will get better. Total faith, in your ability to handle everything that comes your way.
Who will eat your young, if the King of the bearing sea is not there to munch down on his lion cubs.
God bless you and your cubs
Love ya

Hi Phil, Josh and Jake
I was so worried about you Phil, but happy to see your getting better. It broke my heart to see Josh and Jake after you got off the boat, they were so worried about you and wanted to be with you, but, they stayed and did the job you needed them to do. You have raised two fine young men. You guys are my favorite crew on the show. Would love to meet you some day and shake all your hands and say ty, there are not many men who can do what you do.I know you will be back Phil, cause your a fighter.
Bless all of you,
Love Penny

Cap’n Phil - Dude, you are the Dale Earnhart of crab fishing! And that nasty captain of the Wizard is the Kyle Bush-ick. We don’t miss a show. Love your attitude, frankness and how many ways you can use the F-word. As for the shots of Lovenox, I had to stick it to my hubby twice a day when he developed a blood clot. Hope you’ve got some honey helping you out. Anyway, he’s fine now. Takes and aspirin a day to keep the blood thin. So hang in there Phil. If you can’t make it for next season of the Catch, maybe they can just film you on the dock waitin’ for the boys to come back. Just so you participate somehow, cause we love ya man!

Phil, glad to see you doing so well. Please take care -

We hope you’re all doing well, healthy (healthier) and happy. Loving the show - it is an “edge of our seat” experience and allows us land creatures an opportunity to live vicariously through your experiences! I have noticed all the anti-smoking references on the page and I (Marie, mother of Shannon and Matthias) find that anyone who makes condescending and obvious comments regarding the negative affects of smoking to these brave men should keep their comments to themselves. It is simply insulting and not necessary.
Cheers!

I’m a 32 year old nurse and when I saw that show I had a sick feeling about what it was that was happening and I was a wreck watching that episode. Talk about a ticking time bomb! You were fortunate nothing happened in the time that you couldn’t get into that hospital-someone was watching over you Phil. Take care of yourself, your boys need you. I’m going to try to sound like a fisherman for a second: What the hell good are you to your kids if your dead?
All the love,
Marcia

Phil, Please keep yourself healthy! We watch Deadliest Catch all the time and love it! However, you need to be a model to all of the Captains to stop smoking (what is it about lung cancer you all don’t understand?)! We want to see you for many, many more seasons and also to keep both of your sons healthy too! We noticed you were not smoking on the “after the catch” last episode, but all the rest of them were, although it looked like Jonathan killed his smoke once you started talking about how you almost died. You see, you are already having an impact!
Remember, life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away! Here is wishing you and the Cornelia Maria many more moments that take your breath away — the healthy way! We are pulling for you Phil, please take care of yourself!

Hey Phil,
I am 46 and take health for granted I think like you did, but thanks to you, I realized how fast something can happen and are going for a full physical to check on my own self. I used to live in Mt. Vernon, Wa and in Seattle all the time….I really would like to have great health so I can enjoy it more when I go there each year. Thanks again for the wake up call… Please take care of yourself as well!! Kudo’s for being such a great dad!! They both seem to love you very much and need you.

Found a book that you might like. You do look really great. A very good-looking guy. That smile is 150 Watts! Keep Smiling! Are you going to be in the Seafair parade in Seattle at the end of July I know Sig is leading the show, but it would be fun if al of the Discovery tars were in there, too. How much fun would that be. We’d have to show up sleep on the curb overnight and we only live in Bellevue~ I’m amazed at the number of fans you all have. Hope you’re having a lot of fun with the whole thing.
Be fun to meet al of you. by the way, What ethnic stew pot do you come from? It sounds English-Irish.
Take care and kep up the good. MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU! I can’t kep up with al the stuff on the Web Site. Will keep up on your progress.

hey phil and cordelia marie crew!
glad to see you’re doing so well, phil. you do look great. much better - quite worrisome to see you dragging your feet on getting to the hospital. i understand why, but take CARE of yourself - your sons clearly still need their dad.
i’m just a new fan of the show. it’s amazing and funny and scary and soulful. what a great bunch of guys.
hang in there and best best wishes that every season is a great season for your boat!

Hey Phil, it’s simple…..take care of yourself man! I’ve worked in warehouses since I was 10 years old. I’ve had one vacation in my entire lifetime(almost 51). I feel your pain and your responsibility to your crew and your family. Seeing you in pain frightens me to the point where I want to live a b it on the easy side myself. The problem is that i’ve gone too far and I CAN’T get back. The term is WORKAHOLISM! TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Looking forward to seeing you and the crew next season. Good luck and God Bless.

Hello Phil,
We are about same age and I too come frm a fishing family. My father and grandfathers fished the calif.coast and Alaskan salmon in Bristol bay.
Anyway fishing skipped my generation but my sons would love to. My father passes away four years ago from COPD. I watched him take his last breath, he was only 73. Don;t do that to your sons, quit smoking now, get your blood pressure down and get as heathy as you can before the next crab season.
June 20th, 2008 at 6:25 pm
Dude, I love your show! And yes, you look so healthy compared to when you’re out riding the Bering. Also, your hair always looks so dark, but in these pictures I can actually see your true color. Or is that some highlights? LOL! Either way, you look great!!! Stay safe, stay healthy and stay cool!!!

He’s got color, we haven’t seen him looking this healthy in a long time! What a cutie!
June 9th, 2008 at 6:27 am
He looks as handsome as always, and that smile goes on forever. Just hope he is keeping up his strength and eating correctly while on tour. He looks happy, that’s all that matters.
