Tyler Mclaughlin’s Profession & Career

Tyler isn’t the only one in the family that enjoys fishing. Tyler’s sister, like his father, enjoys fishing and joined him on the ‘Pinwheel.’ This occurred following the terrible death of Nicholas “Duffy” Fudge.

She already knows how to operate a boat and was able to catch a Bluefin tuna weighing over 800 pounds alongside her brother. She got her captain’s license, allowing her to be Tyler’s right-hand lady on the ‘Pinwheel.’

Tyler had a tremendous struggle in 2018 that pushed him to the limit. He lost his good friend Nicholas ‘Duffy’ Fudge, who had ‘the bends,’ a condition that primarily affects deep-sea and scuba divers.

Decompression sickness is another name for this illness. Decompression sickness is caused by rising pressure when a diver returns to the surface of the water too quickly, according to the University of Michigan Health.

Tyler recalls his first catch with Fudge as a bittersweet recollection. Since Fudge’s death, he has continued to make great catches that he dedicates to Fudge and utilizes to honor his legacy. Fudge made many appearances on Wicked Tuna and its spin-off show, Wicked Tuna: Outer Banks.

Tyler, as many people already know, operates from a boat nicknamed the ‘Pinwheel.’ According to The Sun, his boat will cost roughly $280,000 to buy. However, most fishing boats cost between $20,000 and $100,000.

People are also curious about the meaning of the boat’s name, Pinwheel. This is what their fishing community refers it when a tuna acquires deadly levels of hypoxia. This normally leads the tuna to become fatigued, making it simpler to catch.

Achievements and Awards

When Tyler heard the distress signal from Miss Sambvca, he rushed in to assist in any manner he could. DawnMarieCorneau, an American Red Cross member, also presented him with the outstanding medal.
