1 Wild River
1/28/15
On the mighty Mississippi River, a tug boat captain, a raft riding pool shark, and a pair of frog catchers each set out to make their fortunes. And when they aren't struggling with the speeding currents and high waters of the river, they're dealing with the other obstacles that come at them fast and furious... A pool hustle goes south and turns dangerous, a crew runs into trouble when an old ship they're bringing home too tall to fit under a river bridge, and the fishermen building their business come across a territorial local standing in their way. But these men face the challenges head on, and brace themselves for a wild ride ahead.

While the Tubbs tug boat crew rush to save a sinking boat, Matt's rushes to save his own hide after a pool hustle gets out of hand.
