Love, Love, Love your adventures. We bought a place in Bradenton Florida on the Manatee river in Dec. Came home to Ohio for the holidays and due to medical issues we are still in Ohio. Your videos are keeping us excited about returning to our new home hopefully by March first. Clay you are so knowledgeable and believe it or not you are teaching an old dog new tricks. Fishing in Florida is totally different than the Great Lakes. We Love the both of you , your videos are top notch. Thank you for all that you do. You are so RICHLY BLESSED.
It is commonly said, but everything about your videos is just great. From the relationship you guys have, the fishing, and of course the cinematic production.... you guys truly provide amazing content. The scene beginning at 11:30 with the reflection off the console and subsequent serene footage and music made it as if I was there. Thank you
At first I thought wow, I have to get caught up on 3 + years of content, now I say I love this channel so much I wave watched every video at least twice and some more!!
This is your best episode yet! I love the adventure. My wife and I have a little 25 LTB and we spent a few nights out in the gulf last summer. Im going to run my boat to the dry tortugas this spring.
Your camera work is simply incredible - the colors, focus, and sharpness come through in a way that is hard to beat. I am watching this on my large Samsung TV connected to a Windows laptop and it is unbelievably clear. Simply not possible at any price even 10 or 15 years ago.
I forgot to tell you in December, but my wife bought me an Avail hat for Christmas and I am loving it. I have had so many compliments on it and she tells me I look awesome with it on (she doesn't tell me that very often either). I just want to thank ya'll for your videos and products. It gives me something to look forward to, one day when I retire. I know that no where is perfect, but what you have looks pretty close to it from my point of view. Keep up the good work and if you ever visit the Nashville area, I will be glad to be your tour guide.
Outstanding video. I camped there in 1975 with my 21’ Seabird center console. I also went up in the lighthouse on the Coast Guard station. Absolutely beautiful place. Great photography, thanks so much.
One of the best adventures I saw you guys videoed yet, from the awesome fish that you guys caught to the awesome footage. The footage was so clear, keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing the next one.
The Tortugas are special places, like how you implore to keep them pristine. I have been blessed to visit here several times, it's always a magical place .
Stopping by to leave a comment. We watched everyone of your videos. But when we do we watch on the big screen. No way of leaving a comment.. So dropping one now and thank you both for all of your hard work and creating these great videos. Blessings to ya my friends.
BOOM BABY! This video is imacculent, and I have been waiting eagerly for days for a new video and this was on point! I knew you were going to have something big for how many days I’ve been waiting! Lol. I LOVE THIS!!! I’m coming down again next week and this really has me pumped up and ready to leave these cold MN temps behind! Please please please tell me there’s a “part 2” coming because I felt like it ended to soon, I was left wanting more, WAY more! I mean I always want more, but this ended to quickly. I know how much you put into these videos between prep, shooting and editing and I’m great fun for you videos, but I was sad when it ended and where it ended. I wasn’t ready! Awesome video! Thanks!
Love the dry tortugas! I remember old Spanish shipwrecks with the masts still sticking out of the water and snorkeling down there is insane! Gotta make it back there one day
Best boat video, best fishing video, best overnight on a boat video, best Key West on the water video, best Dry Tortuga video ever for me. Thank you for sharing. (just added to my bucket list)
The videos you guys make are among the best I have ever seen. Just like being there. Great. You deserve so many more subs. All the best from freezing cold Norway.
Hey guys! Great video as always. Just wanted to say thank you!! My first (will not be my last) order of Avail Performance Shirts showed up yesterday and I absolutely LOVE them!! Best gear I have ever bought by a long shot!
I just saw you guys next to me in marathon. I rode up wondering what this Mercedes with a camera Boone was Doing. Then I saw your rig about 50 yards up with the contender. Was actually expecting the path finder. But if I had a 32 ft contender that clean. I think that’s perfection. My biggest thought was that 18 in screens. You need a bigger truck.
Wow! Guys, I watch a lot of your content and enjoy it all BUT... waking up on my boat in the Dry Tortugas has been such a huge dream of mine and I kid you not, tears came to my eyes it was so beautiful and moving!! Thank you for sharing that. I'm still smiling. I hope my day will come soon!! 🙏🏻
We had a 42’ slow mover when I was growing up. One of our trips from Punta Garda was down to the Dry Tortugas for 4 nights, up to key west for few more days and then home. Loved every second in the Tortugas.
Hello Clay and Stephanie. All I can say is wow! I am a new subscriber and just love the videos you guys capture and share. Clay, that shot of the sunrise after spending the night at Dry Tortuga Islands on the boat was spot on! Almost got teary eyed, such a magnificent scene. I hope to one day visit the Keys and try some of the spectacular fishing while there. That meal Stephanie cooked up looked amazing and delicious. Continued blessings to both of you and keep these amazing adventures coming!
One of your best shows yet! It has an almost Flip Pallet’esque feel to the story telling. Please keep it going in this direction! Also, next time you catch a tuna, please show a closeup and detail clip of you popping that artery to bleed them out. Thanks! 🍻
So happy you guys posted a video. I have been waiting. Love your videos, makes me feel like i am actually there with y'ALL. Please post more camping videos!!
Absolutely cool video adventure and one of your best! Been a while since I have been to the Tortugas and never spent the night. But you two took me back to the beauty and rich history of this slice of paradise. Amazing work… flawless. Thank you.
I absolutely love watching your videos! I subscribe to quite a few channels and yours is my ultimate favorite! Each episode has inspired me to work harder to achieve my dream of being on the water in a center console making the runs to the Bahamas. We’re coming to the keys next year. It’d be awesome to meet y’all! Keep up the great work.
so epic, really appreciate the regulations our state park down there. some of the most beautiful water I've ever seen, you guys timed it with some really epic weather. congratulations on being husband and wife
Been a fan since you were filming in high school and making highlight reels for the football team lol you guys are such an awesome couple and compliment each other well keep up the great work!
At 7:26 The Big Cat Express is used to run between Ft. Myers and Key West. I guess the Yankee Freedom III was having maintenance done. First time that I have seen that boat there. I guess you did this trip before grouper season closed. A very nice video! I've been to Ft. Jefferson over a hundred times over the years, I love every single trip!
Capturing those birds walking on the beach was great. You are so consistent with the quality work its hard to remember you don't have a reality TV crew behind this.
There are couples with a life goal of traveling the world, there are others that just wish to do the same thing that you two do as a marriage, thanks for the great videos and for keeping us motivated to work hard until we are able to do these things.
What a great video!!!! Also, you folks have really figured out how to utilize the boat to its maximum potential. If I did not know that was the boat cover, I would have thought you had a custom canvas tent made to camp. I know you have ice, but is a refrigerator an option for your boat?
Spent plenty of time there as a commercial fisherman in the 80s90s2000s. There is some real great diving there also especially off of Loggerhead Key, great thing is you don't need scuba gear. No sure what the legalities are there nowadays you would have to check because things change. Hospital Key is another spot to check if you can, talk about a deserted 🏝 island. I watched turtles hatch there one time. For fishing I would check out Pulaski, West side of Loggerhead, Banks and there was some great fishing to the east if you enjoy yellowtail snapper. I once caught a 87lb black grouper (gutted) at Rileys Hump back in the 80s. I believe it's all off limits now and just north of Loggerhead light I wrestled in a 100lb Kingfish(Handline). On the way there or back check out the rockpile(northside)Rebecca Channel, tail end of the reef Southside. Remember life's a ⛱ beach. Namaste
Making great 👍 videos is a talent that very few have, and you guys know how to make great 👍 videos. I have never been to Florida, but definitely with Gods Blessings I will be able to travel there some day, definitely bucket 🪣 list. I extremely appreciate you two for sharing the trip and experience 🙏🏻💪🏻🍻🍻🤩🥳👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️

The level of production that these videos are done at is unreal. Great work guys!
Thanks Caleb!
Caleb, I have said this many times. Clay is the best!
Came here to say the exact same thing, so good!

I don't think I have ever watched an entire video like this, also watched the Bahamas one. Amazing footage and great story telling!
At first I thought wow, I have to get caught up on 3 + years of content, now I say I love this channel so much I wave watched every video at least twice and some more!!
Awesome stuff you guys!! Keep sharing and we'll keep watching. Can't wait to upgrade boat and copy what you guys are doing......
Thanks so much for watching! Best wishes on the upgrade 👍
This is your best episode yet! I love the adventure. My wife and I have a little 25 LTB and we spent a few nights out in the gulf last summer. Im going to run my boat to the dry tortugas this spring.
Sweet those LTBs are awesome boat
It’s no 39’ but it gets it done!

Can’t thank you enough!
One of the best episodes ever!
I’m loving these camping videos recently. It’s great seeing all the different ways you are using your boats
Thanks Matt! More to come 🤙🏼

One of the best adventures I saw you guys videoed yet, from the awesome fish that you guys caught to the awesome footage. The footage was so clear, keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing the next one.
Astounding production! Looks like high end professional videography. Seem like nice sensitive folks too! Thanks so much for these wonderful videos.
Man, what an awesome trip! Great fishing, beautiful surroundings and two wonderful people!
The Tortugas are special places, like how you implore to keep them pristine. I have been blessed to visit here several times, it's always a magical place .
Wow, your videos are absolutely stunning. I'm just amazed!
The production on this video was amazing! It was better than any movie I’ve seen recently.

Love the videos! Clay's narrative is great but could could use an increase in cadence.
Beautiful day Clay, love this spot and hope to visit there this summer. The fishing is just incredible what a life! How is the real estate going?
Very very very nice and beautiful video.. Keep making new videos please... I love them so much... 😍😍😍😍😍😍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Can’t wait to go there this summer for a week. Taking a catamaran from Naples there. Going to anchor right there as well .
This has to be your best effort yet. The filming and descriptions were wonderful. I want to go there. There was only one problem, it was too short.
Great video. Great couple! Love from Brasil. :))
