Wow! What a day of fishing? Always informative, Clay, even telling the difference between a Red Grouper & a Black Grouper! And, the dinner looked amazing, Stephanie!!
Hey Clay thanks for the video time! We had a lifetime experience with Capt Alex and meeting you on the water was a huge bonus. Like I said, you were the reason we were there enjoying the keys. Can’t wait to get back!
What a fantastic day of fishing Clay, I have to say I wish Stephanie could have been there with you. I know how excited she gets when the fishing is red hot. Keep up the good work!
We have been fishing just didn't go as much as we do now. Also have learned so many more skills since starting to film for the channel. Thank you for the feedback.
Mad skills and superb seamanship Clay… and single handed as well! You model greatness on the water ( or under). And Steffi’ I am still lobbying hard for you to do a seafood cookbook… it would be a slam dunk success. Thanks you two…. Terrific video once again.
It's insane how much bigger the fish are later this year. You couldn't find a fish like this, this summer. It's good to see though. Thank you so much for watching.
This video was one of my favs...such a fun day! And props for the solo fishin..the rod n gaff etc...i wouldve jabbed myself im sure. I missed u Stephanie but u did a great job in the kitchen. You guys are my fav...awesome job this video! And someday i want that backyard too...goals...
Thank you. We missed her too but it's always good to have her cooking segment at the end. Makes it feel like she was there the whole time. 🤩 Thank you so much for watching.
Y’all have a great channel and I love watching your videos, very humble family that explains things that they are doing very well. Thank you for sharing your life with us!
I forgot to add that the cinematography that you’ve added to this channel over time has just been going up and up, keep up the good work and know that what you are doing is providing great entertainment and informative videos.
I'm from Rio de Janeiro city and I'm Kayak fishing. I'm improving my english by watching youtube videos. I found out you channel by youtube suggestion and I’m lovin that. it's amazing catches in a even more place. I’m learing and enjoying at the same time. Thank you for sharing!
Clay being from Maryland and doing a lot of offshore fishing there. I have a different theory on the mahi. During the summer mahi and other pelagic species will travel as far north as Maine, but heavily concentrated from the Carolinas to Hudson Canyon. Meanwhile you guys still have mahi in the keys. But as soon as the waters start to cool or the northeast those fish will head south. So during the summer you have 1000+ miles to scatter those fish, during the fall and especially winter, they get condensed in the southern portions of the Atlantic. That would be my guess on why you don’t see a lot of bigger mahi during the summer months.
Hey! Thank you so much for watching, they are not right now but we could get that over to you. If you want to send us an email, availgear@gmail.com we can let you know.
You can do a lot with a boat like yours. If I didn’t live on the west coast of Florida and fish offshore so much, I’d probably trade my twin engine boat. Whenever someone who has never had a boat asks my opinion of what kind of boat they should get, I always tell them to get a big bay boat.
It has the most versatility of any boat. It makes the most sense if thats something that fits your lifestyle. We enjoy both the backcountry and going offshore. Thank you so much for watching.
Great day on the water Clay. Love the action with multiple hook ups at once with the Mahi. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Stephanie awesome food prep as always. I started making some ceviche and love it. Im going to try the lobster when im up in New England next summer. I snorkle for them in front of our house up there!
Sounds beautiful. 😍 Hope you have a great time when you go next summer. Sounds absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel.
Love you shows and going fishing with a charter company this Thursday any suggestions on catching fish in the Gulf around Gulf Shores my first time ever. Thankyou for advice
Clay, I could say great video but I love that boat more. It really seems like you have all the room you need in back for fishing. Anything you wish it had?
Honestly, there’s nothing I would change on the boat other than its size some days. There are days where I wish I had a 27 Pathfinder but then again the 24 is smaller and thus easier to handle and clean as a one-man band. Thanks for watching.
I’m going offshore tomorrow on a 12 hour state water red snapper trip. We can keep 4 per person and they are all big. Normally all over 10 lbs. there’s a few UA-cam videos on them here in Texas. Tight lines. See ya next time. Robby
Ty for making these video when im not happy i open youtube and i see you have a new video so i click on it and it calms me down and my birthday is November 9 in two days 😁 love your content ❤ and we are going to Islamorada this weekend for my bday i hope to see u ❤ and we’re going fishing to 😁
So where do we find the recipes? Trying to go back and find the yellowtail with chili sauce but not finding any in the description (may be overlooking).
They are in the description of the video. They are all the wy at the bottom, if for whatever reason it isn't showing up you can email us at availgear@gmail.com
Making me miss marathon!!! We had 6" of snow in Valparaiso indiana 3 days ago UGGG!! Good the good thing is the crappie are biting on our 4 acre lake behind the house !!! Until 2024 keys !!!
Congrats. Love watching your videos. So jealous we love the keys just so expensive. Not going down like we used to.so we will just enjoy your videos. Thanks and good luck in the future.
We understand that. Everything has just gone so up. It's the way of the world these days. We appreciate you watching. It's like a little virtual vacation.
Awesome video! I Love watching videos of people fetch or shoot their dinner! Subscribed! She DID look agressive cutting up that lobster! Glad she closed on a property, but you may want to install a trauma kit into your kitchen!
Great show, and love your content. But nothing compares to the old days. I have heard stories about the fisheries in the Bahamas 30 years ago. 10lbs lobster all day. You try and target Marlin , the Mahi was bigger pests than barracuda today. 100’s of Mahi 40-50lb fish average a day. 60lb black groupers eating 5lb yellowtails while trying to real them in. Conch bigger than soccer balls all over the place. We will never have that or experience anything like it. That was 30years ago, imagine 100 years ago.
They having a baby.......Steph is glowing in the video
Has no one ever told you
Was thinking the same!
I was thinking the same 😁😁 a little fishing men is cooking
She's definitely getting bigger.
For some reason I read this comment as “growing “ and not glowing the first time lol
Wow! What a day of fishing? Always informative, Clay, even telling the difference between a Red Grouper & a Black Grouper! And, the dinner looked amazing, Stephanie!!
Every day is a day to learn something new. Glad to hear that you enjoyed everything. Thank you so much for watching.
Congratulations!!!! You guys are going to be the model family!!!
We appreciate that, thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed the latest video.
Beautifully shot, some awesome drone shots at the end.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed. We truly appreciate you watching.
Life by the bow back on the water with a fresh video!! ❤❤❤❤
You know it! 🎉 Thank you so much for watching.
Hey Clay thanks for the video time! We had a lifetime experience with Capt Alex and meeting you on the water was a huge bonus. Like I said, you were the reason we were there enjoying the keys. Can’t wait to get back!
It was a pleasure meeting you guys. We truly appreciate that, hope you continue to come back and spend the time here.
Thank you for your video! I lived in the upper keys from the mid 80's to the early 90's. Your videos bring back great memories to me, thank you!
How amazing, glad that we can give you those memories back. Thank you so much for the support.
What a fantastic day of fishing Clay, I have to say I wish Stephanie could have been there with you. I know how excited she gets when the fishing is red hot. Keep up the good work!
She definitely does, but she had a busy day. At least she joined us for the end so that's all we can ask for. Thank you so much for watching.
@@LifeByTheBow It was nice to see her even though it was in the kitchen! lol The meal looked delicious.
Wow another great one. Bi-weekly good for you! Congrats to Steph on her closing.
Thank you so much. We’re trying to get out as much content to you guys as we can. That’s for the support!
The best family on UA-cam - awesome video you guys!

It’s a great added touch. It helps you keep a better eye on your bait throughout the day.
Another great one, Clay! The shots of the sunset 🌅 or sunrise are stellar 🤩I missed Stephanies energy 😂on the boat. Dinner looked delicious.
She’s a busy girl these days. 🤣 Thanks for watching and enjoying the content we produce, we appreciate you.
Great video guys! I love the content!
Appreciate the feedback, thank you so much for watching.
rod details pls
So you haven’t been fishing all your life?😳 You do a great job explaining what you’re doing and why, I actually have learned a lot from your videos.
We have been fishing just didn't go as much as we do now. Also have learned so many more skills since starting to film for the channel. Thank you for the feedback.
Mad skills and superb seamanship Clay… and single handed as well! You model greatness on the water ( or under). And Steffi’ I am still lobbying hard for you to do a seafood cookbook… it would be a slam dunk success. Thanks you two…. Terrific video once again.
Thank you so much. You always have the kindest words to say, thank you so much. Appreciate you watching.
Great video brother! Good day out, good to see bigger mahi now 🙌 summer was a lot of smaller schoolies
It's insane how much bigger the fish are later this year. You couldn't find a fish like this, this summer. It's good to see though. Thank you so much for watching.
Great episode catching that variety of fish in one outing. Stephanie hit a home run with that feast she prepared. She’s really talented.
It tasted even better. Couldn't ask for more. Beautiful life. Thank you so much for the support, glad you enjoyed watching.
Thank you for taking me with you... You and Stef are the best! Best, ~Stan.
Always, thank you Stan. Glad you enjoyed the videos. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.

When fishing offshore with single engine do you recommend turning off while fishing?
We do but it's completely up to you. You can never be too safe.
