However, he now has The Northwestern in his bio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also has a job working in PR for Sky Vapor, while looking after his four daughters. Matt doesn&#8217;t feature on Deadliest Catch season 20, but childhood friend Edgar Hansen introduced him to crab fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>WOAH: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/shows\/deadliest-catchs-mac-white-may-have-gone-under-radar-but-hes-still-catching-fish\">Deadliest Catch\u2019s Mac White \u2018gone under radar\u2019<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-jake-and-matt-had-explosive-feud\">Jake and Matt had explosive feud<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Five years previously, tension between the two boiled over, when Jake says Matt &#8220;choked him&#8221; on deck. Matt replied, &#8220;That was like ten years ago,&#8221; but the captain had delivered an ultimatum to them both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He told them, &#8220;Whoever swings next, you&#8217;re gone.&#8221; And when the incident eventually took place again five years later, Jake was fired, but ended up buying his own boat, The Saga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-facebook wp-block-embed-facebook\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mattbradleyonnw\/posts\/986938512891961\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-deadliest-catch-star-puts-family-first\">Deadliest Catch star puts family first<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Matt had to put his pride aside when Jake offered him a job on his boat.
