We need more people like you. You had your tuna for dinner and that was enough theirs about 1% of people that would’ve let that big mutton go. Glad to see some people care about the fishery as much as I do.
Great video man . Keep it up ! I love how you tell us what kind of gear you run. Maybe include what kinda reel rod etc next time . Keep the info flowing.
Going to the keys in june. Wish I could take my son and I out with you. Just cant afford it but bringing our bay boat. Just want the family to have fun. Will probably stay on Marathon. Hope the weather is nice. Breaking out the tube that Santa left. Love your videos. Great job all around!
my dad used to take me to marathon every summer as a kid! thats what started the fire! totally understand but hope you guys have an amazing time! thanks for the love and glad you guys enjoy the videos!
Gday Arron great day out I sent deer meat for dinner a dozen invites to join you I will keep up the invites hopefully I can happen .I had never herd of Him before so it great watching while waiting for your next one to come out about time you pulled the wetsuit back on 😂
I saw you wanted to hook up with Deer Meat for Dinner. Why not hook up with a lesser channel and give them a boost? Thanks for the positive light on Commercial Fishing. We need it.
@@FVMissPaula yea we get a decent amount of them! no big ones though. I'm hoping one day the channel gets big enough to travel and make episodes with fellow commercial fishermen and charter captains!
Key West Waterman Oh i hear ya, but if/when you finally get one you'll be kicking yourself for not getting it sooner. Think of all the gas and time saved! Lol. Probably a different beast down there though, may not have as many situations to use it as we do up here around Tampa area.
🐠I’m thinking that one of the strange FWC rules does not allow you to keep that fish that got sharked. The fish was obviously of legal length but because it’s impossible to measure it I believe they say you cannot keep it. Correct? Thx
you are correct, if what's left of the fish is not of legal length you have to throw it back or it is a violation. however in this circumstance the remaining portion of that snapper was still 18". I took a photo of it to be safe!
What’s up brother I’ve been watching the channel now for a while and I’d love to know how to get a spot for at least a day aboard one of the most productive boats I’ve seen on UA-cam thus far. South Florida native as well. Hope to hear back man.
Aron * it’s nice to see you using a conventional reel stiff rod . I hate see spinning reels and light rods to try pulling in strong fish that can rock up pull a hundred feet of line out. And on an old video love it…
Isn’t Tipsy the cutest 🐶 I love her ears. Does it hurt your hands when you pull the line up after the lead ball thingy? I would think it would 🤷♀️. Enjoy that Tuna!🐟
Aaron young where can I find info on your guided trips! I’m in central Florida got a couple free diving buddies that would probably like to come along!
Shimano trevala TVC-66mh been fishing them for a while really life em. great for muttons and smaller grouper, even live bait for wahoo and kings with the same set up
A shark cut a giant Permit I hooked at the Marquesas in half like it was a dorito. Get on the Permit there on the flats this time of the year. What's up with that boat that was stuck at the Marquesas?
@@KeyWestWaterman oh ok, thank you. I was talking about using the purina tropical fish food mixed with salt water. I’ve heard it referred to as dry chum.
I am starting my journey to book a charter with you and then a cooking experience with Will and a sunset paddle board trip with your fiance Madeleine I am a fan of all three of yall. Since I am have not swam in a while I am getting in the pool 2 times a week with my mask and snorkel from August to end of January 2024. I am also 59 years old and want to experience what yall do daily. I will get ready for this. To build up my swimming stamina and just get in better shape. i will video my training. Then before Christmas I will get your Dibs on bottom website and book my adventure for late February 2024 or early March 2024. I plan on being in Key West for 5 days. Likely just me and my dog Jay. In between now and then. I will prepare for this trip. I really enjoy watching and learning about fishing in the ocean and safety while doing it. I have much respect for you and your family there. I look forward to the next six months and then the trip. Respectfully Matt
Aaron, great stuff! Please look me up on FB. I am trying to plan a spearfishing trip in Islamorada for Stanzfam. It would be great to have you come out with us!
I appreciate that honest feedback! she def is alot to handle, had anxiety her whole life. 10 years old now. I don't film much with her around for that reason. she just needed to get out of the house and happened to be a day I was filming!
Anyone That try to bust your chops over your Pup never had a real Pal for a dog, and I have owned some just like you that, wanted to let you know let's get this one daddy, and I laugh hard for the memories of some of the Psycho dogs that went everywhere I went who acted just like her! Don't worry about the haters' Bro, you just keep on being your true self as we outnumber them thousands to one!
haha true story! really appreciate that! she's alot to handle but has been there for me through thick and thin! appreciate you taking the time to share and watching the vids!
May just be me, but i find having the clicker on the whole fight a bit much. Coming from a guy who watches too many fishing vids if there is such a thing. The subtle whine of the drag is where its at imo. Great vid as always! tally ho
I turned it on so people could hear when i'm gaining line and when i'm losing. as a charter captain one of the biggest mistakes I see customers make is reeling when the fish is taking drag. but I agree I probably left it on longer than I should have. was attempting to teach less avid fishermen and women how to properly fight a fish!
@@KeyWestWaterman For sure man. Great idea using it as a teaching tool for pumping up a fish. Keep up the great work. Your dive vids have helped me a ton
Leave Tipsy at home next time, the whining gets old & distracting at times. Probably your worst video ever, but you still get a thumbs up, as I like to watch you catch & only keep what you plan to eat. Hope the tuna was good, & need more Commercial stuff from you.
We need more people like you. You had your tuna for dinner and that was enough theirs about 1% of people that would’ve let that big mutton go. Glad to see some people care about the fishery as much as I do.
Liked this video before I even watched it their is a difference between you tubers that fish to make money and fisherman that do UA-cam to teach.
no reason to take what I don't need! some days I take enough to make a paycheck some days one fish will do! appreciate you watching and the feedback!
@@KeyWestWaterman that’s what I love to hear wish I would hear that more from my generation
I need a Fishing partner with that much enthusiasm.
hahaha she's got plenty!
Can’t wait to see the spearfishing videos when grouper season opens!
I am counting the days!
Ole Tipsy sounds like a fired up Hyena...she wanted you to catch em up
haha she's nuts! been that way her whole life!
I’ve got to give you great props, reeling in the tuna, and took time to pick up floating trash to clean up after someone who won’t. Great job!!!!
there's so much out there! try to grab it when I can!
Isn’t it nice to spend a day on the water with your best (canine) friend?
True therapy.
Great video, enjoyed it!
It sure is! Always makes my day!
Stopped mid-catch to grab some plastic trash out of the water, awesome! Love your channel. Watching from Cudjoe.
way too much of it out there! really is sad!
@@KeyWestWaterman I think I've gaffed more balloons and bags than fish unfortunately.
Sad but true!
Tipsy was pumped! He's a great first mate!
haha she always goes nuts! been like that since she was a pup!
She knows what's coming for dinner! Lol
Ur dog is fresh. Great job n alot of grouper passed Tortuga. About 50 passed.great one.
haha she is crazy!
Thanks for the promised mutton vid, i get homesick ... Hello from Germany, good luck and all the best.!
of course! im slowing getting to them all when I can! thanks for watching!
Good job on video, explaining equipment and showing how to. Do some more on different species. Tax man didn't leave much,lol
haha coming right up!
Great video man . Keep it up ! I love how you tell us what kind of gear you run. Maybe include what kinda reel rod etc next time . Keep the info flowing.
yes I plan to! several people have asked about that!
Man i have to say your videos are awesome, keep them going.🤙
happy to hear it! thanks so much!
This is so cool, love the high quality. Keep it up 👍
thanks so much!
Have to honest, the dog adds a ton of character to this video. As always I learn some great pointers
Going to the keys in june. Wish I could take my son and I out with you. Just cant afford it but bringing our bay boat.
Just want the family to have fun. Will probably stay on Marathon. Hope the weather is nice. Breaking out the tube that Santa left. Love your videos. Great job all around!
my dad used to take me to marathon every summer as a kid! thats what started the fire! totally understand but hope you guys have an amazing time! thanks for the love and glad you guys enjoy the videos!
Keep up the awesome work brother.
appreciate that!
Love your fishing buddy!
thanks for watching! happy to hear it!
the best company for line fishing, without disparaging the others, but Typicy is the best
haha she is!
Gday Arron great day out I sent deer meat for dinner a dozen invites to join you I will keep up the invites hopefully I can happen .I had never herd of
Him before so it great watching while waiting for your next one to come out about time you pulled the wetsuit back on 😂
haha really do appreciate that! and grouper season is right around the corner!
I saw you wanted to hook up with Deer Meat for Dinner. Why not hook up with a lesser channel and give them a boost? Thanks for the positive light on Commercial Fishing. We need it.
I'm the smallest channel I know! lol but doing my part! alot of misconceptions about commercial fishing! most people don't know any better.
@@KeyWestWaterman Well if you wanna make the trip to Chesapeake Bay I'll do a collaboration with ya. Haha. You catch any Blue Crabs down there?
@@KeyWestWaterman I would love to see you do a joint venture with Aquachigger. An epic spearfishing treasure hunting video.
@@RTeBokkel will have to them em out! never heard of the channel!
@@FVMissPaula yea we get a decent amount of them! no big ones though. I'm hoping one day the channel gets big enough to travel and make episodes with fellow commercial fishermen and charter captains!
Thanks for the videos. New subscriber. You seem to have integrity. Hang on to it ! ...and thanks.
welcome and thanks for watching! really appreciate that kind words!
You gotta get a motor on the front of that boat, game changer for sure! I fish on 29-32 contenders with tm's and it's soooo nice! More fish in boat!
its alot of money! I'd rather just pull an anchor than spend $6k lol
Key West Waterman Oh i hear ya, but if/when you finally get one you'll be kicking yourself for not getting it sooner. Think of all the gas and time saved! Lol. Probably a different beast down there though, may not have as many situations to use it as we do up here around Tampa area.
Oi amigo, bom te ver novamente !
Que bocada deste tubarão heimmm??!!!
Abraço e cuide-se.
damn sharks!! thank you sir! thanks for watching!
Enjoyed it. Our dog loves to go too.
happy to hear it! she loses her mind but like to get her out from time to time!
Pleasure fishing is fun fishing. Nice video

@@KeyWestWaterman thank you for the explanation. There is no question in my mind that you meet and you exceed the legal and ethical rules. Thx
that dog is excited!
yea she's had what seems to be anxiety her whole life! been on the boat since I got her at 6 weeks old and has been that way the entire time! lol
Love your vids u gotta take rob Arrington for blue water spearfishing
glad you enjoy them! and maybe one day! we shall see!
Dog is on point.!!😂👊🏻
haha right!
Good videos really enjoyed your wahoo spearfishing video very cool
Glad you enjoy it!
Great job and thanks for the release.
thanks for watching!
Good fishing

I run charters year round! its my main job, commercial is only a small portion of my work.
Would you mind if I got a contact for you
@@jesusroque969 all my info is on my Instagram @dibsonbottom_adventures and website www.dibsonbottomkeywest.com
🤣🤣🤣ya gotta love dogs 🤣🤣🤣🤣a true fisherman all the way 🤣🤣🤣
haha right!
Love your videos, really cool vibe you have. I am a cameraman for @miamiboatramps would love to come charter your boat and film it.
really appreciate it brother! thats pretty cool y'all post some funny shit!
Great Video Waterman..!!!
thank you!

She is the best!! And no doesn’t hurt!
That long leader fishing blows
yea its kinda a pain in the ass but is affective at times! we also chunk for them sometimes!
Nice video
thank you sir!
Fire vid
thanks for watching!

Woooohooo go Will!!
haha
What kind of rod is that, loved the action it had!?
Shimano trevala TVC-66mh been fishing them for a while really life em. great for muttons and smaller grouper, even live bait for wahoo and kings with the same set up
What was your tackle set up? Looks like speedmaster reel. Coming down in June and hoping to have some decent days to get offshore. Great video!
speed master 12 with a shimano tvc-66mh!
A shark cut a giant Permit I hooked at the Marquesas in half like it was a dorito. Get on the Permit there on the flats this time of the year. What's up with that boat that was stuck at the Marquesas?
happens all the time! and honestly idk I don't fish for permit ever. not sure didn't hear anything about it!
Maybe the shark that got the Almaco that "went straight back down" followed you and whacked that snapper?
I ran about 4 miles between spots! so I doubt it!
@@KeyWestWaterman I don't know man. According to Jaws IV-"The Revenge", sharks will follow you halfway down the Atlantic :-)
😂😂😂
It looks like you use dry chum while Spearfishing? How do you feel about wet vs dry chum and when should they be used? Thanks.
not sure exactly what you mean by dry chum. I thaw chum and mix it with sand majority of the time. that or frozen
@@KeyWestWaterman oh ok, thank you. I was talking about using the purina tropical fish food mixed with salt water. I’ve heard it referred to as dry chum.
When it is a rod bender all is good
haha right
Enjoyed it and wish my dog wanted to be my fishing partner too. I may have missed it but what weights are you using in the different depths? Thanks
I didnt cover it because it varies based on current. on average fishing about 3-4 oz this day
👍👍👍👍
thanks for watching!
search for really nice spots around 185 to 200 foot deep thats where i always fill the boat with mutton
yup!
If you got another day blocked and you want someone to split gas let me know. Did you go out for Moses celebration this past Sunday?
I appreciate that! and I did not, I didn't personally know him. I just found out he had passed yesterday. so very sad.
Yeh I only met him once or twice. Super sad, poor family.
Are you chumming or just drifting the whole time ?
no chum just drifting
how would you fish these wrecks if you had a gps trolling motor?
all depends on current and conditions! also what species im targeting
I'd rather listen to Tipsy than music ... 😻
Lol!
I’m your wahoo spear fishing video you said that wahoo was top 3 in your choice of fish to eat - what are the other two?
golden tile fish and probably black belly rose fish. really hard to answer that question depends what im craving! haha
Sharks have to eat to no worries:)
Lol

I didn't know stanz did any spearfishing! good to know! keep me posted!
what size speedmaster is that?
12! love them for muttons/grouper and live baiting kings and wahoo!
Yeah I just ordered 2 20’s for my kite rods, but never saw them in person so I’m hoping they are a good size
How do you know that is a wreck ?
its logged on charts as a wreck, but who knows! don't think ill ever been down there to tell for sure!
we catch mutoon snapper free lining for them in 15ft of water
yup! catch them anywhere from 5 ft out to 250+
Do you close the bail while you drift or leave it open?
Closed
For me, the dog was distracting.
I appreciate that honest feedback! she def is alot to handle, had anxiety her whole life. 10 years old now. I don't film much with her around for that reason. she just needed to get out of the house and happened to be a day I was filming!
Don’t worry, sir. I’m not unsubscribing because of a dog.
What transducer do you pair with your simrad
airman b260
Shoulda stopped when I caught a head, I mean when I was ahead. Well you know what I'm sayin...
haha yea I should have!
Anyone That try to bust your chops over your Pup never had a real Pal for a dog, and I have owned some just like you that, wanted to let you know let's get this one daddy, and I laugh hard for the memories of some of the Psycho dogs that went everywhere I went who acted just like her!

haha true story! really appreciate that! she's alot to handle but has been there for me through thick and thin! appreciate you taking the time to share and watching the vids!
Tipsy is a talker.........I wonder what the reaction would be to a squirrel?
oh she loves a good squirrel!
Why is such long leaders necessary?
I've caught them with less but have really good luck with long leaders, i'm assuming it makes the bait seem more natural
May just be me, but i find having the clicker on the whole fight a bit much. Coming from a guy who watches too many fishing vids if there is such a thing. The subtle whine of the drag is where its at imo. Great vid as always! tally ho

First
haha !
Are you out front or the gulf?
out front! 400 ft on the gulf side is a hell of a run I don't wanna make for a snapper
Please check your email Aaron, l hope it becomes a reality🔱
I just saw! thanks so much! you rock!
It takes a long time for the healing ridges to go away from hernia surgery....
trust me I know! lol
The dog crying the whole video gives me anxiety.
your comment gives me anxiety sooooooooooooooo
lol me too! she doesn't get out as much as she used to so I bring her along time to time even though it drives me crazy!
Leave Tipsy at home next time, the whining gets old & distracting at times. Probably your worst video ever, but you still get a thumbs up, as I like to watch you catch & only keep what you plan to eat. Hope the tuna was good, & need more Commercial stuff from you.
appreciate the honesty! what else did you not like about the vid besides the whining? like to improve where and when I can! thanks for watching!
@@KeyWestWaterman Nothing else really, except you didn't get a lot of fish, lol! Keep up the good work, I DO love watching your vids.
the dog is annoying.
Excited*
Stop bringing that pain in the ass dog to your job So annoying I don't even want to watch
Don't watch then, he doesn't owe you anything
Your soul is a desert mate.
that pain in the ass dog has been my best friend for the past 10 years. with all due respect if its that annoying you have the ability to not watch.
