Lobstermen: Jeopardy at Sea is a multi-part documentary/reality show on the Discovery Channel chronicling the fall 2005 North Atlantic lobster fishing season aboard several fishing boats. Created and narrated by Thom Beers, it is heavily patterned after and can be considered a spin-off of fellow Discovery Channel program Deadliest Catch, which deals with Alaskan crab fishing. Lobstermen debuted on June 20, 2006, one week after the finale of season two of Deadliest Catch in its former time slot.

In 2007, Lobster Wars debuted, following not only Dragon Lady, but also four other lobster boats.
Fishing vessels
The show was filmed aboard five fishing vessels.
Episodes
Six episodes of the show were produced.
