You guys have been hammered by a lot of rain/storms so it is very well deserved!! Can’t wait to see what is for dinner!! Awesome video so far #KeyWestWaterman back to the show… 71 miles is a lot of coverage!! PS thanks for making Mondays amazing!! I look forward to these videos every week along with Dock Talk!!

    What I would love since you mentioned it, is your garden . Just wondering if you could show us the garden. I have just a small garden myself. Yellow squash, zucchini, tomato, cucumber & cantaloupe
    Maybe others would love to see your garden also
    Thanks again for great vid

    Your comment about finding new spots. I often allocate a little time to finding new spots when the fishing is good. By that I mean to say that I don’t just look for new spots when the fishing is really off, and I can’t catch fish in the regular places. Same thing with new tackle of techniques, I try new gear when the fishing is good. If the fish are hitting really good, and you switch to a lure that doesn’t produce it’s easy to come to some conclusions. Same thing for new spots, if the fish are feeding then it’s a good time to check out new places. Not to say you might as well explore when fish are off, or moved.

    Your videos are always entertaining and informative. I had an idea though... talk your sister into coming down to the keys, she can give you a basic Archery class in the back yard, then, you two go Bowfishing. Never seen you Bowfish. I think it'd be a great video for you and her both.
    Then, maybe you teach her cast net (if she doesn't know already).
    Gonna go post the same on her channel...

    I enjoy your diving in fishing videos. For whatever reason it seemed foreign to me but my son always enjoyed diving, swimming and snorkeling in the mangroves. If you want to get the skin even crispier. Kodi with kosher salt for 15 to 20 minutes before cooking to draw the moisture out. Then wipe off the salt call block off any moisture on the skin side and you can put a pinch of salt again on the skin. Have your Pan about 3/4 throttle, just to wear the oil is shimmering and slightly smoking. When you're done cooking the fish, block it again and set it a side skin side up and serve skin side up. Tremendous flavor and health benefits to fish skin put the texture of the crisp is what everyone loves.
