@@johnsmith2136 it's against the law since some species have a regulated season, and if you keep an undersized or out-of-season fish, you could be fined or have your license taken away for a given amount of time i believe
Love the fact that you always keep it real and down to earth. Seasickness can happen even to the most experienced fishermen and even though I'm not one of them, haha, I will agree that seasickness absolutely sucks. The best thing that works for me is either candied ginger, or ginger hard candies. Good job for making the most of it and sharing it with all of us!
My brother and I just got back from Oranage Beach. We watched a bunch of your videos to learn how and what to fish for. Thanks to your videos we had the best fishing trip of our life. We caught a ton of spanish mackerel, several pompano, a couple sheepshead, red snapper, mangrove snapper, spadefish, stingray, and whiting. Thank you for your great videos.
been sea sick 1 time on a liveaboard dive boat for 3 days. only felt better while diving. love your content. you are blessed to have your mom fish with you.
Couple things for sea sickness I’ve learned quite a few after decades on the big water. For Dramamine or patches, if you initiate them the night before going blue so they can work much better to get the drug in your system to calm the inner ear. As a sailor on USN faster movers in the day, the cooks always served up heaping portions of greasy spaghetti for lunch to keep your innards lubricated. Worked fine. If you’re underway, munch down on a box of saltines and Coca Cola to soak up the suds in your tummy. Getting sick on the briny is nothing to get upset about, it happens to us all. Just prepare for like anything else and keep on hookin’.
Put a swimmers ear plug in one ear it helps with the sea sickness it fools the brain from motion signals and prevents sea sickness! Love your videos man!!
Years ago I fished out of Sportsmans marina in orange Beach. When someone on the boat got sick we put em in the water. Within a matter of seconds the sickness was gone.
@@jasonshaw4572 Yes putting them in the water stops the motion in the head, it calibrates the body and the seasickness goes away, but if the water is very cold it's a problem. People that get seasickness are not on the water a lot The more they go on the water the more used to the motion their body gets. In time it gets less and hopefully it goes away.
Just started watching your channel 2 days ago and have been hooked! Have probably seen over 50 of your videos now in two days and have to say you’re one of the best fishing channels. Have already taught me a ton about saltwater fishing. Thanks for the awesome content man!
Take the Dramamine B4 you go out if you know it is going to be rough, taking after you start feeling bad doesn't help. I'm sure you know that already. Navy here, I never got seasick when I knew we were going into rougher seas, because I always Dramamine up. It is all about how you see the horizon, and how your body adapts to the change of dips rolls and upheaval. The only time I thought I was going to hurl was on a coast guard cutter doing radio testing as a contractor in 6-foot swells 100 miles off of St Pete doing steerage way speed in a radio room sitting with face in a fan at high-speed trying not to hurl. I didn't', but man! As soon as we got done, I ran to the flying bridge to see where I could puke, once I felt the wind in my face, and got fixed on the horizon, I started to calm down the puking sensation. Exhausting for anyone to go through. It will bring any woman or man down! Good on Ya "ship mate" jim
Been seasick twice in my life, first time I stuck it out and stayed fishing, second time I recalled how miserable that first time decision made me, so I go headed in and fished from shore. Glad to see you did the same!! Nice sheepie to finish the day!!
@@joelmitchell4289 I usually don’t get seasick, but there were two times for some reason I did. I also found that rubbing just behind the ears can help when they onset occurs. Also natural equilibrium level makes a big difference, sometimes equilibrium can be affected by blood pressure, hydration levels and other things. I am glad that Dramamine works for your mom or at least helps. Seasickness can ruin a day quick!!
I am disabled now, but I used to religiously fish Deep Sea Headquarters out of Port Aransas Pass in Texas when I visited relatives in the Corpus area. We had a few trips where the seas were 5-10's, and that cured me from ever wanting to go out in those conditions again! To stop the sea sickness, we nibbled on sandwiches which is what the captain recommended, and it staved off the illness quite a bit. One big ole fella lost his cookies on the concrete deck and made for a nasty mess. That's what finally did me in and I blew my oats after that! LOL Never forgot that particular trip because I won the fish pot with a 25 lb. yellow fin jack while half sick!
THANK YOU for getting sea sick!!!!! I am x-Navy and a new boat owner. I've been out in the gulf 3 times and got sick every time! But I am NOT giving up!
Great video lots of good catches.. Open water fishing is the best but if anyone gets sea sick you turn around and leave it for another day I do the same..
@@doctorcrew2388 everyone gets sea sick, I’ve only had it once and I was young stuck a few miles off shore stuck with dead batteries in 11 foot waves. Definitely wasn’t fun but was humbling. Sea sick sucks but I’m not ruining my day for it plain and simple
Correct 07bently if you care about those in the boat with you leave it for another day or find a beach from the boat and fish the beach.. Usually I'm with friends or family and they know I'll look after them
@@supervisorone5960 depends on the person. If they’ll be fine then I’m fishing but I won’t be out there all day. But say it’s my mom or something then we’ll definitely pack it up
Such great content. Seasickness is the WORST. What works for me is 1. Skip the morning coffee and get my caffeine somewhere else like Mountain Dew :) and 2. If I start to feel a little queazy, eat something. Seems counterintuitive, but an empty stomach is the worst for me. Box of frozen uncrustables is my absolute favorite fishing day food :) Keep up the great work man. 200k subs coming soon! :)
I spent three weeks sea sick on the first trawler i worked on up in the gulf of Carpentaria in Northern Australia. After three weeks of spewing I finally got my legs. We would re-supply and unload out at sea, so unless you had a engine or other mechanical break down we would be out working for 8 months. the skipper wouldn't stop unless i got comatose, finally started to enjoy myself after a month. That was a hard time. But I stayed on the boats for a few years.
When I would visit family friends in TX, we would always go out and fish up a mess of gafftops because they were plentiful and delicious. Quite fun to catch too! Great fight in them.
Captain, you're living life the right way. Those locations out in the Gulf and/or inshore are beautiful, and to be fishing with your mom is a blessing. Great videos. By the way, I got seasick once, and I wasn't even on the water. I had an inner ear infection that affected my balance pretty badly, one day. Waves of dizziness came until I became really ill. I took Dramamine for it later that day, and that helped. It never happened again, but that one time was brutal. ...
You could have totally never mentioned the sea sickness. But you did because you're just a humble normal dude. And if anything, you just made someone who has experienced the same thing feel better about the situation. Maybe you drank too much the night before! lol cheers dude. Keep fishin'.
For your sea sickness. 3 days before you trip start taking Ginger. Old sea captain told me that trick see if works. Better than feeling funky with Dramamine
If you fish enough you will get sick. I've been sick in the bay anchored up with 2ft swells, just pull up anchor and start moving or in the summer you can jump in and instantly the sick feeling goes away. Love your content brother.
Stephen, I am the king of seasickness! Went out on Lake Erie when I was a teen, on a 26 ft cabin cruiser and we hit a storm out there. We were on our way in and I was laying on the roof puking green stuff that I never ate. Then, the engine quit. Krikey! After about an hour, the boat owner finally got the engine running again and we came in. It was a bad day!
As someone who nearly always gets seasick I use ginger root. Cheap to buy at any drugstore and doesn’t make you sleepy. Repeat every three to four hours.
When I get seasick I do 3 things. One drink mineral water, or jump into the water swing for a while and keep fishing, and the last one I go back to the shore and walk around for a while.
Hate you got sick out there it happens and it sucks but you hung in there and finished the vedio great job love your vedios one of the best out there keep them coming thanks
Hi Stephen I have been fishing in very rough waters for over 44 years in Wellington New Zealand and would have to go in when I felt sick. But friends put me onto no coffee before you go out no milky breakfast and I eat ginger biscuits all the time I am on the water. Now I do not get sea sick.
If you remember me I haven’t seen your vids in a whil I’ve been subbed since 40k and I have been first 2 times and you commented on my comments like 3 times
Sea sickness is the pitts. When I was first on my first ship another sailor got so sick he had to be tied to a table in sickbay and hooked to an IV. I was fortunate in that 14 years at sea on 7 ships I got uncomfortable twice and both times were related to what I had/hadn’t eaten.
Brother you were making my wife and I homesick with this video. Sorry you were getting sick. Pretty cool thing though, the bridge you passed under that was being worked on is where my moms old house is. We used to fish the docks at night there getting BIG specs.
Ginger and ginger tea helps with motion sickness. It helped me when I was gliding - certainly I lasted a lot longer before it kicked in - if at all. It has a good reputation.
I get seasick in a bath tub so to make sure it doesn’t affect my fishing I take a travelcalm the night before I go out and then again one in the Morning before I head out. Seems to do the trick.
Watch you all the time from Ecuador. I wear a Scopolamine patch when I go out. Never been sea sick when I have a patch on. Can’t find them in Ecuador so when I run low I come back to Tennessee. The circle hook is the secret. I catch twice the fish than my buddies. They will catch on one day!
I've been seasick before, and found that puking over the side of the boat really helped (felt much better after that, LOL). What I usually do for nausea, is to eat mint ice cream (or ice cream sandwiches), or gummy candies (like gummy bears or gummy 'blackberries and raspberries'). These have never failed, for me, when I used to have regular nausea (not sea sickness related).
I don't get seasick ever, but there was one time out in the gulf out of Venice, LA. We were by the jetties catching white trout and a few mangroves and I just got real seasick, so I sat down and drank some water. We were gonna head back in but then I started to feel better so we went out to the rigs and actually caught our limit of red snapper and some redfish! so glad we didn't head in (got a nasty sunburn though!) love your content man!
Best thing to do if you are not a conditioned seaman is to just stare at the horizon and sit down for about 15 minutes. It goes away once you stare at the horizon long enough. Your brain should balance out after a while. Cool catches. I should be out there filming some episodes in late spring, got idaho bass fishing to attend to for a week starting tomorrow. After that some more salt water trips on the boat and then Texas in late spring and Florida in november. My year is going to be filled with fishing from all over the u.s
Such a genuine guy and so thorough in your knowledge and passion for fishing. Would love to drop a line with you if you ever run charters! 😂 Truly a pleasure watching your videos.
Gafftops are a blast to catch. I’ve caught a few in Louisiana and they fight like crazy and really good. I fried mine. Thanks for the videos Stephen, you really make them interesting and fun to watch.
@@BamaSaltwater the only difference between gafftops and freshwater catfish is the freshwater catfish have a taste of mud when cooked because the majority that people buy in the store are farm raised! Gafftops live in constantly moving water and eat other fish, crabs, mussels, oysters, ect all day long rather than the waste at the bottom of a stagnant overcrowded pond like the freshwater catfish do!
It has been a long time, but a hot humid day with rough conditions, not eating or drinking anything on the way out and a mild hangover = projectile vomiting. I always now have plenty of H20 and do not go out in >2-4 foot seas on an empty stomach. Havent had an issue for 20 years or so.
Nice sheepshead 😂 One of the best eating salt fish in the GOM. If you've already taken dramamine and still get sick, you have to do what you did. Get back to base before the dizziness hits. I've had similar experiences and always carry imodium ad. That's all I have to say about that. Thanks for the video
Happy Easter to you your mom and everyone else for that matter! Hey yall? Hire Captain Stephen to take you out far in the Gulf to view the Starship Launch in a few days...... I hope Elon doesn't hit a dang Dolphin with his Starship....lol Great video. -Cliff Battleship Marine Supply Fairhope, Alabama
Been sea sick is no joke. there is nothing you can do to feel better. It happened to my spouse on a party fishing boat and boy they do not return if you get sick. My wife was chumming the waters but it did not feel good seeing her how bad it was. Omg. Drink allot of water and if you don’t want to or cant force it in or You can get dehydrated in an instant and its worst for ya. Good vid bama. It happens to the best of us.
Nope, used to deck hand on a 65ft. Sportfish. Ain't no returning to see, chunk it out, and get better is the only solution haha. Being my own Captain, I called it that day LOL
Vertigo can act like sea sickness. Mine acts up every now and then I just sit still and let it pass. I'm not saying this is what you have just a thought! Love the fishing video's
I’m coming down to gulf shores in June where do I get fiddler crabs,I usually just fish with shrimp that I get from the tackle shop. Thank you for all of your content I learn so much from your channel.
Most bait shops wont be carrying fiddler crabs in June just because they're not popular to fish with during the summer season, but you can still find them at boat ramps, rock piles, and wood washed up along the muddy shores of a bay. Mostly at night!
i used to fish cedar point pier all the time its been several years since ive been there i got a 22 lb black drum off that pier. sailcats were a dime a dozen lol they did eat very well though.
Try the wrist bands from Toulifly Travel Wristbands. My grandson has extreme motion sickness and since we had him start wearing these, he has not had anymore instances of it.
For nausea, the best stuff I’ve ever used is EMETROL. The formulation has apparently changed, it used to say don’t drink anything 15 minutes before or after taking it. Never tried for seasickness, but for (when I used to drink 🍺) hangovers or nausea, vomiting etc, it did the trick. It in addition to the dramamine patch might be the knock out punch for serious seasickness. I’ve been seasick once, I thought I knew what feeling bad was, until that day. South of Dauphin Island , we couldn’t get back in quick enough for my likings, as it was rough coming back into the bay. Never again, I pick my days carefully and keep emetrol even though I’ve never used it yet specifically for seasickness. Better to have and not need, is good policy.
Last year we went about 20 miles out and I got sicker than I have ever been and I used to run offshore crew boat. Made the mistake of drinking a Orange Gatorade and it got worse.
Great vid! I was excited when you made your way to P’cola bridge… then the darn water cut you to another day. Head back and do some fishing this way some time! God Bless you man. 🙏

I think the best for sea sick is the candied ginger. Just keep it in a zip losk and it seems to last forever . Also some of us like the flavor.
We keep zofran on the boat for seasickness. Works every time!
Ginger and ginger tea helps with motion sickness. It helped me when I was gliding - certainly I lasted a lot longer before it kicked in - if at all. It has a good reputation.
Anytime I’ve been seasick I go up to the front of boat and look at horizon and start burping. Seems to work for me.
Look up ginger for sea sickness. Take some ginger before heading out and drink ginger ale. Dramamine makes some ginger chews also.
Haha, I have tried the Ginger chews in the past but they never worked for me. I also hate ginger (even though i use it to cook sometimes) LOL
I get seasick in a bath tub so to make sure it doesn’t affect my fishing I take a travelcalm the night before I go out and then again one in the Morning before I head out. Seems to do the trick.

Non-drowsy Bonine with ginger. One before you go to bed and one the next morning about 30 minutes before the boat ride. Works great or me.
I've been seasick before, and found that puking over the side of the boat really helped (felt much better after that, LOL). What I usually do for nausea, is to eat mint ice cream (or ice cream sandwiches), or gummy candies (like gummy bears or gummy 'blackberries and raspberries'). These have never failed, for me, when I used to have regular nausea (not sea sickness related).
I don't get seasick ever, but there was one time out in the gulf out of Venice, LA. We were by the jetties catching white trout and a few mangroves and I just got real seasick, so I sat down and drank some water. We were gonna head back in but then I started to feel better so we went out to the rigs and actually caught our limit of red snapper and some redfish! so glad we didn't head in (got a nasty sunburn though!) love your content man!
Only other thing I have seen work for nausea in general, smell an alcohol prep swab. Works for post-anesthesia nausea too.
Those sailcats are great to eat, they're sorta hard to clean with that big ole rib cage. Great video, stay safe!!
Best thing to do if you are not a conditioned seaman is to just stare at the horizon and sit down for about 15 minutes. It goes away once you stare at the horizon long enough. Your brain should balance out after a while. Cool catches. I should be out there filming some episodes in late spring, got idaho bass fishing to attend to for a week starting tomorrow. After that some more salt water trips on the boat and then Texas in late spring and Florida in november. My year is going to be filled with fishing from all over the u.s
Just became a fisherman found your channel and I feel like a pro following your techniques.
Great content! Thank you.
Glad you enjoy the vids!!! Good luck and have fun!!
Hey its good to see you out there and your mom to.
Such a genuine guy and so thorough in your knowledge and passion for fishing. Would love to drop a line with you if you ever run charters! 😂 Truly a pleasure watching your videos.
Gafftops are a blast to catch. I’ve caught a few in Louisiana and they fight like crazy and really good. I fried mine. Thanks for the videos Stephen, you really make them interesting and fun to watch.
I agree!! Lot's of folks definitely judge them without trying em! Thank you!!
@@BamaSaltwater the only difference between gafftops and freshwater catfish is the freshwater catfish have a taste of mud when cooked because the majority that people buy in the store are farm raised! Gafftops live in constantly moving water and eat other fish, crabs, mussels, oysters, ect all day long rather than the waste at the bottom of a stagnant overcrowded pond like the freshwater catfish do!
It has been a long time, but a hot humid day with rough conditions, not eating or drinking anything on the way out and a mild hangover = projectile vomiting. I always now have plenty of H20 and do not go out in >2-4 foot seas on an empty stomach. Havent had an issue for 20 years or so.
Always a pleasure to join Captain Stephen and his 24 ft bay boat!! 😁🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Thanks homie!
Nice sheepshead 😂
One of the best eating salt fish in
the GOM. If you've already taken
dramamine and still get sick, you
have to do what you did. Get back
to base before the dizziness hits.
I've had similar experiences and
always carry imodium ad. That's
all I have to say about that.
Thanks for the video
Yes, I took Dramamine and was still feeling terrible and had the shakes so I'm glad I called it! Thanks!
ive only been seasick once, marlin fishing off the Big island in Hawaii. Terrible feeling
I don't get seasick often but when you do there's not much you can do to shake it.
I’ve Chummed the ocean many times! Usually another beer helps! Haha!
Thank you for the video!
So chill great catches 👍
Siegler makes some great reels. I have a couple and they haven't disappointed
They do! I like the left handed options and made here in the US
@Bama Saltwater yeah man. Mine are all lefties. I'm right-handed with everything but fishing reels. The sgn is a sick reel for slow pitch too.
I want your job… fishing all the time. Awesome! Good on you sir!
Happy Easter to you your mom and everyone else for that matter!
Hey yall?
Hire Captain Stephen to take you out far in the Gulf to view the Starship Launch in a few days......
I hope Elon doesn't hit a dang Dolphin with his Starship....lol
Great video.

Been sea sick is no joke. there is nothing you can do to feel better. It happened to my spouse on a party fishing boat and boy they do not return if you get sick. My wife was chumming the waters but it did not feel good seeing her how bad it was. Omg. Drink allot of water and if you don’t want to or cant force it in or You can get dehydrated in an instant and its worst for ya.
Good vid bama. It happens to the best of us.
Nope, used to deck hand on a 65ft. Sportfish. Ain't no returning to see, chunk it out, and get better is the only solution haha. Being my own Captain, I called it that day LOL
I just went on a charter trip Thursday on Dauphin island off kieng boat it was a blast until I got sea sick got a 32lb cobia
If you were talking about scopolamine patches just know they can take up to 3 hours to really kick in and are meant to be used preventatively
I enjoy your videos. Love watching you cook & eat them, thank you
Vertigo can act like sea sickness. Mine acts up every now and then I just sit still and let it pass. I'm not saying this is what you have just a thought! Love the fishing video's
I have it unfortunately and can usually be good out there but for some reason, nothing worked this time!. Thank you!
I’m coming down to gulf shores in June where do I get fiddler crabs,I usually just fish with shrimp that I get from the tackle shop. Thank you for all of your content I learn so much from your channel.
Hooked Up tackle right by the gulf shores bridge or most of the bait shops on the island have them when they are available
Most bait shops wont be carrying fiddler crabs in June just because they're not popular to fish with during the summer season, but you can still find them at boat ramps, rock piles, and wood washed up along the muddy shores of a bay. Mostly at night!
pcb jettis tonight, enjoy the rain this weekend!
i used to fish cedar point pier all the time its been several years since ive been there i got a 22 lb black drum off that pier. sailcats were a dime a dozen lol they did eat very well though.
Try the wrist bands from Toulifly Travel Wristbands. My grandson has extreme motion sickness and since we had him start wearing these, he has not had anymore instances of it.
I'll check em out
Your videos are my favorite to watch
Steven try Gravol for motion sickness that the only way i can fish in windy condition and that on inland lake up here in Canada,
For nausea, the best stuff I’ve ever used is EMETROL.
The formulation has apparently changed, it used to say don’t drink anything 15 minutes before or after taking it.
Never tried for seasickness, but for (when I used to drink 🍺) hangovers or nausea, vomiting etc, it did the trick.
It in addition to the dramamine patch might be the knock out punch for serious seasickness.
I’ve been seasick once, I thought I knew what feeling bad was, until that day. South of Dauphin Island , we couldn’t get back in quick enough for my likings, as it was rough coming back into the bay.
Never again, I pick my days carefully and keep emetrol even though I’ve never used it yet specifically for seasickness.
Better to have and not need, is good policy.
Last year we went about 20 miles out and I got sicker than I have ever been and I used to run offshore crew boat. Made the mistake of drinking a Orange Gatorade and it got worse.
Make ya never want to drink one again haha!
@@BamaSaltwater yes it will.
Thank u sir u give us good content no matter what!..👊🏿🇯🇲
Great vid! I was excited when you made your way to P’cola bridge… then the darn water cut you to another day. Head back and do some fishing this way some time! God Bless you man. 🙏
I was too! Only caught white trout and it was getting late. It's in the plans to do more fishing there! It's fun
