I went surf fishing before a scheduled guide trip I've had with some clients and the conditions were terrible! I end up having to cancel my trip but I stayed behind to fish and managed to catch one big black drum. I planned on doing a catch and cook, so here it is!

One the best fish I have ever eaten......filet without scaling or skinning place the skin side down and grill over coals.....the skin and scales form a bowl when the edges curl up.....butter or oil with your favorite seasoning....just scoop the meat out hit it with a drop of lemon and wow it’s awesome.....a Cajun friend of mine taught me that.
Sounds great!
always a gr8 feeling to hook into a beast and land it from the surf
Lite grill med to moderate heat. Head and gut the fish. Do not scale. Put fish on grill, grill for about 12-15 mins on each side. The fish has it's natural pan, which are the scales. The meat stays moist and tender and cooks in it's own juices. Stick fork in dorsal fin and put back the meat. Top with your favorite toppings, ie.. salt, pepper, lemon, Old Bay, Cajun sauce. Enjoy!
Please keep doing the catch and cook.
Just wanna say i enjoy your videos and you appear to be a cool dude, cheers
Thanks man!
Nice catch. I live on the east coast of Florida in Amelia Island just north of Jacksonville. I surf fish in Amelia Island and St. Augustine. It is very rare to catch a Drum that big at the Beach in northeast Florida. But there are plenty at the Inlets and in the rivers. My friend caught a 13 pound Black Drum in the Intercoastal waterway one time.
Buy some ceramic tiles from Home Depot and use them as a base for cooking fish. Works easy and the tiles are cheap....
I like to take lemons and slice them up and line the grill with the slices with minced garlic and cook the fish on a lower heat
Trim off the red meat and take off the skin and fry it in cornmeal. Add salt pepper lime YUM. Seeing your presentation off the grill that looks damn good too. You can for a side put peppers onion and red irish potatoes in foil with olive oil and seasoning. UUUMMM. Either way it's all Good!
Next catch and cook try catfish...get an oak board, pre heat oven to 350, nail filet to board, season heavily, cook 30 minutes then scrape filet off into trash and eat the board. 😉
Looks good to me so does your tree. Maybe scale the whole fish first? Can’t say for sure cause I’ve never caught one.
Black Drum the scales make a mees. On Red Fish on the half shell you do not have the issue with the scales.
Blacken and cook in olive oil. Add a little lemon juice at the end
What I do is take the filets and wrap in tin foil with tabs of butter, garlic salt, pepper, Cajun seasoning, on the filets. With the filets wrapped in tin foil, put on grill or put in oven (375) for at least 10 minutes. It comes out like broiled fish.
Make a video on how you load all you stuff in your suv? Beach cart rods reels cooler? Please I have an SUV and just got a cart
I have seen a hanging bracket, and even cargo cage, that goes in a receiver hitch used for hauling beach carts. But if hauling it inside you really need a rubber, molded, cargo pan to contain the sand!
@@chrissewell1608 thx!
You look like the lead singer of Puddle of Mudd. Good video man
Looks delicious!
2 cups of all purpose flour, one tablespoon salt, and enough water to make it a little thinner than pancake batter. Dry the fillets with paper towels, then dredge fillets through the batter, and then roll in (Vigo) brand Italian bread crumbs with Romano cheese. I cook at about 320 degrees for about 3 1/2 minutes. This is also a great coating for fried shrimp as well.
Thanks!
That looks awesome!!!!
I wonder if any presents, under the tree contains fishing gear?
great video. stay dry and warm.
Great catch and cook
what is the weight of the pyramid sinker in such rough conditions? Also, can you make a video about how to read a beach for fishing.
On the halfshell!
I caught a bull black drum yesterday and today I marinated it on lime, cajun & olive oil.
Came out terrible! I noticed the meat shrank and had the texture of pig fat with a slight hint of amonia that i ended up throwing it in the trash. Im used to eating fish but this one I caught was too big for consumption. Its the same size you caught but im wondering as to why mine did not came out like yours did.
When I was filleting the fish i noticed the meat was soft but i was thinking it will firm up like the meat from a red fish.
Next time ill know better to just release the big ones. I had the small ones and those are good but for the big ones. Ill pass
Which is the rice, and which one is worms?
Always best to squeeze lemon juice AFTER you cook it. You'll get better use of the juice instead of cooking it off.
Good tip! Thanks
Revolution Road I like to add lemon before and after. Adding before you cook gives a deeper citrus taste. I like the combo of both flavors
Every video is a free beach trip! Thanks dude. Makes my day while sitting at a cubicle in Montgomery! Nice Fish!! Big Ugly Time!!! 😋Do they sell Everglades everywhere?
I find Everglades at a piggly wiggly down here
I buy it at Publix. Other than that you may have to go online
Aaron Hanson Thanks
Bama Beach Bum Awesome....Thanks!!!
Usually cook red fish just skin side down on grill. Never seen it roll up lol.
Hmm. Maybe that was the problem
Surely you scaled the skin side right?
great!
the real star of your program is the little guy in the background that you ignored. I hope you will include the baby in your videos.
Same recipe but try it on a wood plank
Hi. My name is Jerry and I live in Florida. You’ve gotten me excited about surf fishing again. I don’t have Facebook or Instagram. Is there a way I can reach out to you for tackle advice before I purchase? I didn’t see an email for you.

That looked 🔥. I just made some fresh sheepshead 😋
Sounds delicious!
What rod is that?
Friend of mine had a great one we did the other day on a 28 inch red I caught. Lemon juice on the meat, softened butter all over the meat, slap ya momma seasoning, garlic and onion seasoning. Little louisiana hot sauce, orange slices on top. Put in an aluminum pan, cover. Put it on the grill at about 350 degrees for an hour. It was amazing.
Get a meat thermometer. That way you don't have to guess if it is done or not. 😀
Need to
How do I get a bumper sticker?
Lol I should of watched the whole video before commenting.....but yeah tasty stuff.....I think I commented the recipe on an earlier video of yours....I usually do on black drum videos.
Cut into large strips make beer batter flour salt pepper in plastic bag drop in strips roll around till covers take out shake of flour dip in beer batter deep fry serve with French Fry's lemon wedges
Mmmm
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Nice video...
( you have no idea of cooking, sorry. No idea.)
Do you have an Instagram?
Yes sir! @bamabeachbum_fishing
Dry asf
Stop taking about jo momma like that jeez
I know I’m 2 years late, but raw. Eat it raw.
We caught a nice black drum last fall in Florida. First time eating it , grilled with old bay and lemon and was very tasty
On the half shell is how I mostly prepare my redfish. The seasonings that I use are Lemon Pepper and Tony Chachere's Cajun seasoning. I use lemon pepper on any and all of my fish. One thing different that you did was to start flesh side down. Never tried that....usually just scale side down only. May have to try that. May help with larger fish. Fun video...…#staybummy
Tony Chachere's is my go to fish seasoning.
as I learned in Landshark’s catch, clean, and cook, one can also just leave the worms and cook it all and they are totally harmless and basically disappear in the meat when cooked anyways. Furthermore they have no taste.
Lay Rosemary across the top on any fish on the grill or in the oven is all you need. Let the Rosemary do its thing.
Is it true you can char the scales and it won’t burn the meat? Is black drum firm or flaky?
If you eat fish, at some point you have eaten a worm or 2!!
very nice.. get it!the wind out in the IV where I was yesterday was outrageous.. damn, ugly conditions..
How much for your sticker ?
what did u use for bait
Glad you decided to fight the wind and surf......Have been told that longer rods help in Rough surf.......What is the longest rod you use and how many that size do you have????
Nice catch & cook. Size limit for NC is 14”-25”; I’d have to throw that one back ☹️ Looks like normal OBX conditions, where we use 8 & bait 🤙
Love the haircut - reminds me of the 80s. Of utmost importance is the use of a "hard lemon". You'll want a lemon that is sour and clean - not a sweet, soft lemon.
Pretty good catch and cook Bama. Happy new year to u and ur family .May u catch many more in this new year. God bless. (pineapple and maple glaze is tasty too, on any fish)
Any tips on cast netting shrimp? They've been really thin around Gulf Shores and Orange Beach it seems.
yep conditions are bad...even the birds are staying away
do it on the half shell like a redfish.
Hi bama 👍. , found ya through Daniel Arms Channel..... love ya awesome work with the beach fishing.
Glad you stopped by! Thanks for checking out the channel!
I like the fact you guys do catch & cook videos. I think you have a "hook" other channels don't. Especially for all the different species you catch. Keep it up. (Just clean that rusty grill grate, before tossing a pretty fillet up there again!)
Thanks! And I’m surprised you noticed! Lol you got any tips on how to get it off and keep it clean? These dang grates have had surface rust since the day we bought it. I can’t keep the rust off.
@@BamaBeachBum .Yes. & your not alone! We have the same problem here at home in Ga. But, since your near the ocean air, I suspect it is an everyday battle.
Give your grill a little extra time, to pre-heat. Crank up the heat to 500° for about 15 minutes. Then give it a quick scrub with a S.S. brush or wood scraper. This takes off almost all rust! Then as it is cooling down, Season the grates: spray the grill grate w/ some PAM, or mop a little olive oil on the grill.
Cook food. If you can fire it up again, after dinner, it is easy to clean and re-season again. This is just like seasoning your cast iron skillet! Its not bad, once you get in the habit, and the grill stays cleaner, since it stays oiled.
What size line are you using?
20lb
Is there a place to fish besides gulf shores .
Orange Beach and Fort Morgan
@@BamaBeachBum, thank you , I've never fished in the gulf I'll be headed that way in the spring.
If you get a pomp, try 'Pompano en Papillote'. It'll knock your socks off!
I’ve heard this
