Once again you have clearly defined what the “ best Florida fishing/diving channel “ looks like. But more than that, it’s your wonderfully real interaction with each other in gorgeous places that being peace and escape to so many devoted fans. I happily discovered this latest video last night and while watching… my wife, then my kids and then my grandson joined me and moved it so much, we watched your 2022 holiday summary again. In the years since you have started up your channel I have never missed one and none have been less than excellent. You always take me home to the paradise I grew up in. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Clay and Stephanie. You are Florida’s best ambassadors. 👍
Thanks so much Lance, you’re the best!
I think you got what you came for - beautiful scenery, tranquility and time together. The fishing is a bonus.
Sure dude thanks so much for watching!
Really ebjoyed this episode! The thought of camping on the boat is awesome. It reminds me of when I was in high school. Me & my buddies used to camp & fish all the time! Clay, you are so blessed to have a wife who loves the outdoors. Don’t ever forget that. It will make you closer, when you get old. Much love!
Glad you enjoyed it! And can’t argue with that, thanks!
Always know it's going to be a beautiful video whenever you post but this one was exceptional!! This is the way life should be lived and grateful you both take the time to share it with us ♥ And glad you brought food this time!
Thanks so much Brittney!
Hope you have fun on your groovy little vacation, I love the tent set-up on the boat, very trick, I might have to try that with my little tinny one of these days. Really connected with your message at the end and wiser people than I am have also said that it's very hard to make memories while lounging in a recliner, it seems funny to say this to people but sometimes you just have to get outside and breath the air, clear your mind of all the chaos life swamps us with and pretty soon you'll feel better and maybe go camping or fishing, whatever your inspiration leads you to do!! I do need to mention how ridiculously stunning some of those shots were, no horizon, the fog,...all of it was amazing!! What a great start to 2023's adventures, and as always thank-you for taking us along with you!! My AVAIL Fleece lined Hoodie has been working really well during our ice fishing exploits, cannot say enough good things about it, everyone needs one of these in their wardrobe arsenal!! Take care - Dave
Love hearing it Dave! You always have the best input! Thanks so much for tuning in another week here! 💪🏼
I'm back watching your videos after a short break away. You guys look great and congrats on the boat. My husband and I are fishing down here in Key West for the past couple months. So beautiful here and lots of great fishing. We don't have a boat, but the mutton snapper, mangrove snapper, permit and grouper are here and fun to catch. We are having a great fishing season. Hard work, but so much fun. Fishing is fishing and if we catch nothing there is a bar to rest up and share stories of the one that got away. Wishing you both and all the viewers all the best for 2023.
Thanks so much and welcome back! Glad to hear you guys are getting into the fish!
You guys are living the dream. Nothing but good vibes watching your videos. Definitely wish I could afford the life experience 😂 the struggles real. Stay safe out there guys.
Appreciate you watching Daniel!
I love that u can just set up anywhere off an island for the night. Amazing freedom you two enjoy, squeeze every moment to the fullest!
Thanks so much Timothy!
Great video. We used to come down to Chokoloskee every winter and fish the back country there. Some days we would just anchor near one of the islands and spend the day. Amazing to watch the variety of life out there while never seeing another person.
Love it! The wildlife is the biggest pluss
Fun camping adventure! Looks like the new boat is fantastic & serving you all well! Thanks for filming the camping trip!
Thanks for watching!
What a beautiful show! Thanks Clay & Steph. Nice Cobia etc. Stunning scenery, thanks for sharing with us. Looking forward to viewing your next show
Our pleasure!
My buddy and I first started going there in the late 80s. We first stayed at the Rod and Gun club in Everglades City and rented a pontoon boat out of Port of the Islands and loved it so much we started going there multiple times a year and camping and fishing inside and outside the the park. Commonly called the 10,000 islands because of the thousands of mangrove islands. Even if we didn't catch anything we didn't care because it was so islotated and beautiful. It truly is one of the most unique fishing spots in the world because without ever getting out of your boat, if you have a gheenue like we had or a flats boat, you could start in the morning in the backcountry rivers fishing for fresh water bass and slowly move out towards the gulf catcatching Redfish, Snapper, Grouper, Trout, countles fish and end up in the gulf catching 30lb Cobia. A little bit to make one jealous. We we started we paid $4.00/lb for Stone Crab.
Agreed! Thanks so much for watching!
I love this episode guys! And the authenticity too. Keep them coming 😊
Thanks so much Will!
Amazing. You guys pump out with great content every week. Thank you
Glad you enjoy it!
Awesome video. Capt Clay & Stephanie keep up. So proud of you all
Thanks so much!!
Living on the west coast of Florida, island hopping and exploring is exactly why I want a boat. Great video as usual!
Thanks so much Ricky!
Fantastic video, guys! I always appreciate your amazing footage!
Thanks
So much Biff!
Wow i had no idea a place like this even existed in Florida! That looks like a super fun camping trip. Awesome video!
Thanks for watching Sebastian!
What an awesome trip!!! Starting the new year off right!
Thanks so much!
Love the exploration videos. Give me some longer videos with quiet time added on….the real beauty.
Great job.
Thanks, will do!
Awesome video!!! We have a 21ft boat but that really makes me want to camp in the near future with the family!
You can do it! Anchor the boat off the beach
Ya great video he is right about fog I’m a young one with 16 foot boat and I was running inshore but u could literally not see ten feet
Thanks for the input will appreciate you watching!
The trip was a huge success what a memory!
Remember too, many boaters forget: what if there was a boat issue, mechanical problem or heavy weather issue? Just being out there coming home Safe and etching those unique memories. Ps- you made a great point about stretching comfort levels, and appreciating the things that we have when we get back home.
Have a nice summer.
Thanks so much!
Amazing! We just acquired a 17.7 and expect to do adventures like this but not to the extent. This is amazing and what I strive for!
Congrats! Good luck!
Wao guys another great video 💪. Camping in the boat is the best experience ever. We do a lot of camping in our 30 ft boat during this season we prefer this weather for camp. Keep up the great work guys. Hope to meet you guys soon ⚓️
Thanks so much appreciate you watching, definitely want to do more about camping
Another fun video! Thanks for bringing us along.
Glad you enjoyed it!

In love with that awesome trip, I just added to my bucket list.
You should! Thanks for watching!
Great video guys we really enjoyed this video fully. Keep up the great works
Thanks my friend!
That fog was up in the panhandle a few weeks ago and it would linger ALL day. Y’all get some awesome footage. Regular tv isn’t even entertaining anymore because of your channel and others alike. Thanks for doing what you do.
Thanks so much my friend really appreciate those kind words
another great video,thanks guys.
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a fun few days camping. Looked amazing.
It was! Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much! We love you too!
I've watched about 30-40 of your videos. And this is the first comment I leave. 😅 absolutely the my top 3 outdoors channels on YT.. the production of your content is just exquisite 💎 b-roll is on another level. Shows how dedicated you guys are on providing the best possible content. Its addicting to watch to say the least.. congrats and thank you for sharing such exciting content!

Yay! Thank you!
What a great video. So much fun and love arching y’all’s Chanel grow!!!!
Thanks so much!!
Awesome video once again!!! As a native Floridian I love watching your videos since I live in the Carolina’s. Look at the part of the video where you caught a jack and it looked like you had a shark following it!! That would have been a sick catch. Keep the great content coming.
Thanks for sharing the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it 💪🏼 that was actually a Goliath grouper!
Man that’s a lot of boat to go skinny on ! Glad you all made it safe. And returned with the same prop Agree. Best kept secret in Florida is right there
Thanks! Will do!
Tent camped many times on middle Cape. Big fun! Caught snook and trout off the beach and made great fish chowder for dinner. Always a winter trip to minimize bugs. Didn’t know you still had a big Contender. Beautiful boat.
Thanks so much for watching Lee! We have plans of going back with the smaller boat and actually staying on the beach.
@@LifeByTheBow You will enjoy that. Stick to the cool months and bring your repellant. The point of land at middle cape is a good fishing and camping spot.
This probably was one of the best trip that you guys took I really enjoyed this one God bless you just keep going
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much
It was just amazing. Thank you so much. You are truly inspiring 😉🎣😎
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video guy's love watching you two. Your very informative and tho I can't do what you guys do I sure injoy watching, thank you 😊
Thanks for watching! Appreciate the kind words!
You two are living my dream! When you pointed back at the boat and said, “that was where you were camping”, my mind was blown!! Have fun, fish on ❤
It's always an adventure on life by the bow. We're very blessed. Thank you for watching.
It's always just fun to go for a little adventure and having fun.
Thanks so much Keith
Great video I think production goes up every time I also remember it being real fun going through tavenier creek by the mouth on the gulf side all the tight turns makes it pretty fun, also really like these camping videos, maybe make a spray hood for the boat for camping? And the avail logo looks good on the boat
Thanks so much Blake really appreciate the input
You two are amazing. So positive. Life is good, thanks for the reminder to be thankful and that the cup is always half full 👊☀️🤙
Thanks so much!

Paradise! Thanks for making the videos. It makes me wanna get out of landlocked Oklahoma!
Go do it. Thanks for watching.
You guys are the only channel I have ever subscribed to. Just awesome content! You are just real and have a great time doing what you do. I hope you make your way down to Dry Tortuga's for opening grouper season weekend. I will be on detail down there opening weekend and hope to see you there.
Thanks so much my friend! We have plans don’t know if we will be able to make it until a little later though.
What a awesome crew and life! Enjoy.
Thanks so much!
WOW the water and the sky connected!!!
Unreal!! Thanks for watching!
Great job guys🙌 this is fishing some days are just slow but you definitely made the best out of the trip 🤘
You got that right! Thanks for watching!
@@LifeByTheBow Best show in town🙌 keep up the amazing job guys
Fantastic Video I really enjoyed watching Thank you! Cant wait to be back down to Punta Gorda in april for some fishing on Charlotte harbor.
Thanks so much!
When roughing it as you guys are i highly recommend having normal utensils and shatter proof plates. Less waste and eating will feel like a morale boost. Sea water rinses well with no detergent needed. Just wipe n go.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Awesome video another beautiful location, keep them coming🤙🏻
Thanks! Will do!
I just bought my second Avail hat (black dorado this time). These hats are legit. High quality material and fit perfectly. Thanks for making these!
Love hearing it thanks so much for the positive feedback!
Thank you for all the great videos and for what you do down there to conserves for the future
Glad you like them! Our pleasure!
Another awesome video guys. We are heading to Islamorada in May, renting a boat, and love to find something like this closer to our location.
Thanks Sam! Safe travels down!
Great video Jeanie and I love them, we even found her a hat like Stephanie's
Good job...😊
Thank you guys for watching!

Sometimes you don't catch the fish you want but the main thing is you all spent some quality time together and making memories.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great vid as always. We are based in Key Largo on Adams cut. Been looking for beaches & now we might give Middle Cape a shot. Appreciate the education. Fish on!
Thanks so much really appreciate your support!

New subscriber! Love the new boat, will definitely check out the gear when I get my new wardrobe for the winter home! 🇨🇦
Awesome! Thank you!
That's awesome! I'm on the SW coast of Florida. Probably an equal distance from the glades. I've been wanting to do this for a while!
Very cool do it!
I feel very lucky for being a fan of this channel and Key West waterman as well, you guys make my day. Thanks ! y gracias a la Cubanita.
Thanks for watching!
Love this
Great subject and looks like a great time
Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great job ! excellent video and beautiful fishing !, congrats !
Thank you very much!
Would LOVE to see you do a series of videos on popular topics: 101 Small Boat Ownership and Maintenance; 101 Boating Skills for Florida Adventure and Fun; 101 Boating Cool Gadgets (NAV, FLIR) and Toys (DPVs, etc) for the Small Boater. You could number them so we can not miss a show. IMO views would kick ass, you could update them every year, get a ton of free toys given to you, and make more money ❗😉
Screenshotting this now, thanks for the tips!
That was fun. Enjoyed.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice work You Two!🙏💥💙
Thank you so much for watching.
I love this channel I’ve watched for a while and it’s awesome the boats and everything

@@LifeByTheBow Hopefully I will see you two and crew cruising in the future. I'm going back to Cali for a bit. much Aloha's
You’re getting close to my neck of the woods! I fish 50 and 60 miles out of Fort Myers. Ian covered up a lot of my spots though, and one of my wrecks is completely gone!
Love that area! Thanks for watching🙏🏼
Great video!
Crazy to think we were playing paintball as kids over a decade ago and now you're killing on youtube and the open sea !
Homestead paintball?
I played a lot over in SW miami farm areas, west of Krome near 288. Still open?
Love the fact that you’re still here watching thanks so much my friend!
@@dertythegrower We used to play at what was called "Big shots Paintball" it was an indoor field it was down in Cutler bay on Quail roost drive.
When I see those grass flats, first thing I think of is Scallops!!
It's the best! Thanks for watching
The shot at 24:00 is epic! Thanks guys!!
Thank you!
Amazing photography! 👏
Glad you think so!
Great intro.. throwing this cast to the TV. Big up, production on point. The drone shots really do help make content better..
Much appreciated!
Awesome adventure, catching is just a plus!
You got that right! Thanks so much!
Life by the bow never disappoints 🤙⚓️ !!!! Great video Cowarts
Thanks my friend!
awesome! Was right next door to you guys two weeks ago my son and I saw you cruise by with film crew! Love name on side of boat! Thank for video.
Nice! We’re you the ones that were camping in the point?
@@LifeByTheBow no by your home. Jan 1-8th. We go every year lol. Ive actually been to your dock.
absolutely love the show! My dream is to own down there and own a boat like that. Working every day towards it. Was diving molasses while down there!
Great show!
Thanks so much!
