24 hours in Isolation Camping & Fishing on Remote Chickee

In this week's video we go camping deep into the everglades as we fish and explore in total isolation for 24 hours. Along the way we catch Snook & Redfish where we eventually end the day sleeping on a Chickee Deep in the Swamp. As the day turns into night we spend our time cooking and hanging out off the grid as the stars night up the light sky.

Guys thanks so much for getting us to 100K!! Best viewers we could ever ask for, here’s to 2022 and a whole chapter for all of us here on Life by the Bow!!

[@jaquancanchon8513]

you are welcome

[@FATHERSOFBASS]

Yayyyyyy I’m proudly one of them 100,000 😎

[@thechadkc1]

You guys deserve it let's get you to 200000

[@RealTateTakes]

Great content and informative videos! Thank you

[@derek8382]

The best part of staying on those chickees is seeing how lit up the sky is with stars. You captured it great. I remember being able to see tons of shooting stars and satellites fly over. Such a great time out there escaping every day life.

[@LifeByTheBow]

Agreed! Thanks for watching Derek

[@patrickgreen2361]

My favorite episode yet! Love the way y’all are so easy going, graceful. Stephanie and you are amazing.

[@riverakers]

I have little experience in the Everglades, but I have spent a few weeks exploring and fishing with my father from Everglade City and went far into the mangroves. It is an amazing place! Secret bays,tiny pathways threw dense overhang of canopy,incredible fish,crabs,dolphin,gators.

[@deanw194]

Loved your closing narration on perspective in circumstance. Wise beyond your years! God bless you!

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thanks Dean!

[@markgolden6265]

You guys are really special people to know how to do the things you do in all of Florida’s lifestyle. Really God’s Grace is upon you all. Stay blessed my friends!

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thanks so much Mark we really enjoyed ourselves here we hope to do this trip again in the near future! Really appreciate all your support…

[@srgbuffalobuffalony7112]

This is one of my fave channels. I used to live in Panama City in 80s. We snorkeled the bays for scallops, stone crab claws, blue crabs... and keep all the catch in a filter bag while continuing snorkeling. Then we caught squid that were trailing behind us to pick up morsels. So much fresh wild caught seafood every day!! Got sick of it in a way!! Wish I could do that today. Once, we went back to same spot after vacation of 3 weeks and the Dredgers and Bottom Scrapers came through there and it was desolate and destroyed. Excellent videos. Well done!!

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thanks so much my friend!

[@jeffhouser9949]

Was a nice change to see inland adventures. Not that the open water isn’t good. But a nice switch.

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thanks Jeff!

[@CanalLifeSWFL]

Clay - that ending was AMAZING! Watch and love eveyr vid!

[@customledandfiberopticsinc2756]

I'm 44 seconds into this and that has Flamingo written all over it. From the bug spray cloud at the ramp to the Chickee. A few friends and I use to take 2-3 boats and our kids and do that trip after the first cold front went thru and then we'd go throughout the winter. So much fun and so much to see and hear. Great video guys.

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thank you!

Outstanding video. Looks like an awesome time.

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thanks Ryan!

[@canucklehead0]

Hey, Congratulations on hitting 100K Subs!!! I absolutely love a perspective change, and for me lying on a dock at night watching the interesting things that soar overhead (One night in the late 80's or early 90's we got to see the Space Station fly by) is mine. I think everyone should make a yearly pilgrimage to the woods for even just a couple days to recharge and reconnect a little,...give the humanity filter a good cleaning. Everyone can't live where you do and as gorgeous a place as it is I imagine there are places surrounding most big cities where you can get away and cook the most amazing bad food and relax. All the best to you both in 2022, take care.

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thanks so much! Sounds awesome

Growing up fishing with my grandparent in Florida sail cats are the only kind of catfish my grandpa would let me keep. My grandmother loved them I also think they are pretty tasty. My heart sank when you said that people don’t eat them😂 maybe it’s a panhandle thing lol. Love the videos guys!

[@toniketola7719]

Absolutely magnificent video you guys… what an idyllic escape. The quality of your presentations, the videography, subject matter and audio are always top notch. You two together and your flawless work on these segments is the reason you have 100,000 subscribers and will have a million in the near future. So happy for you both… this was stunningly pure escape to paradise! I have already shared it with a dozen or so friends and am watching it again now. Thank you.

Hey guys! Love the video. Is that dock available to rent for us common folk? Would love to take my son out there for a camping trip.

[@allneedsmobiledustlessblas2859]

I'm not even going to read other comments first. Bravo! To all involved in the construction of this video, WELL DONE! !!!!!!!!!! Everything was a whole other level it seemed. From Clay's soothing voice and virtually undetectable topic transitions coming from a well-groomed and well-spoken man who is a great example of what every man wants to look like to Stephanie's awesome sense of strong will and aggressive nature, Eruptive personality, welcoming voice and the best laugh I've ever heard not forgetting to mention absolute beautiful Lady she is, to the video quality that goes from the whimsical to the complexed and from an angle that is always best! Great work! NEXT LEVEL READY Sorry bout that, I got in a zone. Micky C.

My boy has a charter company/bait shop in Clearwater and put me on a 37.5” snook and a 30.5” red. Both were pb’s for me in the same day so I’m going to get a replica double mount.

Hey Val send us an email to [e-mail] and we will get you taken care of 👍🏼

[@lancedixon811]

Great video. They just keep getting better and better. Question: new to Florida (Port Saint Lucie). I want an off shore boat or bay boat, but I feel we would be inshore most of the time, sandbars and such. We almost always go out on good days anyhow. 24/26’ range is what I want. What’s your thoughts?

[@LifeByTheBow]

Thanks Lance! 23-26 perfect size

[@logann7016]

Why don’t y’all call redfish puppy drum? Like we do in the outer banks (nc)

Clay you are the best thing on KZbin. I really do believe you'll have your own network tv show soon.I just want you to know that your knowledge is impeccable.Stefanie, your also great ,but if you go back on this video you'll see that you doubt Clay two or three times. Not good for ratings.

[@LifeByTheBow]

Hey David appreciate your kind words towards us and the show. That’s really Stephanie just being her natural self lol. She gets really excited and I think that’s where you may be mistaking her for doubting me.

There are channels that have underwater photography that play for 5,8,10 hours. I put some of these up from time to time on my TV or laptop. I think you have a huge advantage because of the diversity of your travel. I do not know anything about putting video's on You Tube but you might try it as a secondary channel that you could advertise on Life By the Bow.

[@LifeByTheBow]

You’re not the first that’s suggested this. Going to have to put this into play!
