Catch n' Cook on a Caribbean Beach - Conch and Snapper!

[@PlayscaleSoldierProductions]

I know a lot of people complain about the videos not being very frequent but I personally prefer it. It makes the videos a lot more special because they aren't as common.

[@ohhysteria7804]

I think so as well!

[@acevideos2]

A lot of people don't notice that my videos these days are a lot longer than in the past. I used to make a lot of 15 - 25 minute videos. But now I go for adventures that keep going. I could have stopped after cooking the conch and made that a video all by itself, but I wanted to keep going and show us using the skin and guts as bait. When we did not catch anything big on the skin and guts, I could not just end the video, so I kept it going and going 😂

[@billythekid22220]

The people who complain have nothing else going on in there lives

[@PlayscaleSoldierProductions]

@@acevideos2 Yeah I definitely prefer the longer, less frequent videos. Keep it up man.

[@hockeystudofficial]

@@acevideos2100 percent agree Ace. You are such an inspiration to me

[@Totallyme.3]

Ace I must say I absolutely love that You still include the prayers in your KZbin videos after all these years. That’s what truly sets your channel aside and makes me want to watch your videos every time I see that you’ve posted God bless you, ace and your dad.❤

[@theofficialbaconson6643]

Love your vids, you’re like a dad to me. Everytime I feel hungry, I pop up a video of Ace and enjoy the process of seeing you catch and cook fishes! Been watching for 3 years

[@acevideos2]

Thanks, man! Appreciate you.

Ace and his dad have such a great relationship. I was so lucky, my dad was one of the best people ever. Sadly, he passed when I was 12 from a stroke, I would've loved to do something like this with him.

[@Wasatch99]

You should say that to ace. Dads are forever cherished.

[@Rickie92]

I have a tip for you Ace if something is poisonous or venomous: 1. If it bites/stings/you, and you die, it’s venomous. 2. If you bite (into) something and you die, it’s poisonous 😉 So the stonefish is venomous. Because once the stingers are removed, you can perfectly eat it👍🏻

[@michaelspencer-z5s]

I always enjoy watching ace, such a humble guy! No curse words not trying to impress any one, dude is just being himself!.

[@jasminechristine21]

I don’t care how long or how short the videos are!! I enjoy them. The salad they make is like a ceviche.

[@Gina-G]

Ace, I'm loving these longer videos! This was great! That's a beautiful place! 🐟 🐠 🎣 🐡 ❤️

When you picked up that concrete block and then said you’d put it back later, I already knew that that block wasn’t going to survive 😂

Hey ace I’m a Caymanian resident I’m so happy to see my favorite catch and cook KZbinr is in my country enjoy your stay

[@Wolf-vc4wj]

I remember as a kid twenty some years ago I had the conk salad he was talking about but our guide in the Cayman Islands made it on the boat after we dove down and got them. It wasn't waiting 24hrs to marinate. Also I think Ace was trying to punch the hole in the conk a little too high, no?

[@simr780]

Dear ace, much love from new york city your videos help me with my depression. I've been down for a while and watching your vids have been the highlight my day thanks for all that do you.

[@rnj1h]

What the sigma

[@allidavis9094]

🇯🇲 here! Next time make the festivals thinner 😂 glad you liked it though. We have it with the fish at the same time. We do have serve it with a drizzle so to speak, the magical trio. It’s basically a pickled recipe… to a jar add sliced onion and carrots, a few pimento seeds, some type of hot pepper (not pepper sauce like actual peppers, we use scotch bonnet) and fill with white vinegar. Marinate for at least one hour, you can save the rest in the fridge. We love our festival with fried parrot and snapper fish, 100% recommend trying fried parrot fish next time

[@virgodvon]

That salad you were talking about is Ceviche , it’s really good , I’ve had it with tilapia

[@codyhenson3373]

YES YES YES ACE WITH THAT 🔥Perfect timing

[@byonca8658]

[@thefox267]

You and your Dad have such a nice relationship to be able to travel together and fish together and then cook up what you catch 😎

[@elizabethlequay5202]

Love watching you guys hang out and enjoy life

[@NicolePomeroyAuthor]

The blue fish with the dots is a small yellowtail damselfish, they can get pretty naughty as they grow up. They can be territorial. The larger blue gray fish was possibly a purple tang or a powder blue tang. They are both aquarium fish. Loved seeing the banded coral shrimp you saw was really neat.

[@lizzieslittlechannel]

That damsel is actually a jeweled damsel. And the tang is an Atlantic blue tang, both tangs you listed don’t live in the Caribbean.

[@charlesstackpole6423]

I looked for this comment for too long 😅

[@pecman347]

Close, but incorrect. The damselfish is most likely a jewel or blue spotted damselfish, which will turn grey/black as it grows older. The tang is an Atlantic blue tang.

[@takezero8161]

watching u and ur dad go fishing brings me so much joy

[@senorevanlopp]

No way I just ran out of aces’ vids to binge watch and this pops up 😂 YESSSS

Such a fun video! I did a mission trip to Grand Cayman years ago. Its one of the most memorable places I have ever been to. The people there are fantastic! ...and the FOOD! I would love to go back to the Cayman Islands one of these days. Keep the videos coming! Great stuff, Ace! Hopefully one of these days I will get to meet you and Me Ancient in person.

Ace at 6:20 the big blue fish is an Atlantic blue tang and the smaller one with the dots is a jewel damselfish. Two different fish and very desired for aquariums! I have both of them in one of my saltwater tanks. Great fishes! 30:10 is a French Angelfish

[@acevideos2]

[@TheBatman514]

Yo!! Ace!! Your content gets me through the day an also helps me learn the way I know how (sound, sight, and emotion). I've seen the sun rise a hand full of times and seeing it in your videos made me go "WOW THIS IS BEAUTIFUL." Use this, your voice (and pops when he's on the stream) and the visuals of the surroundings, your trek to the fishing spot. It checked all my PERSONAL boxes. I see 451 comments right now that only means something to me. Everything I said are my personal feelings, but my feelings are enhanced for w.e reason god gave me all this extra "awareness" for. Ignore but remember what I said and stay natural. YALL ARE SERIOUSLY DOING GREAT. changed my life and I'm just RELAXED enough to KEEP IT...100. I hate that term but it's a blunt term so YEAH!! lol. Pops is the Goat with the off-Cam Ad-libs!

[@jamesshadle559]

2:34 For context Ace, this is a scorpion fish. While still painful, it’s like getting stung by a lionfish. Very hard to perish from a sting. They are related to stonefish and they are BEAUTIFUL. All in all, good find!

[@lrparrish227]

I enjoyed this so much. Love the taste testing. My mouth is watering.

Great video ace it's been a while but the extra long video makes up for it I was soo hoping you were going to land that tarpon

[@donscott1534]

Festivals are normally ate plain. I was introduced to it by my ex as she is Jamaican and I always have it with Ackee and Saltfish or fried fish like you are having it. Not as big as you made them but still fried and really used for sopping up food off your plate. Festivals, Plantain, Bami with Callaloo and fried fish. I have to go to Kansas City and get the festival mix since none of the stores here in Lawrence, KS carries it.

[@danielsuzuki2678]

Love watching you and your dad, your relationship reminds me of my relationships with my four grown children. Anyway Ace, you really screwed up that Conch!!! My wife is from the islands and she laughed at how you got the snail out of the shell. She kept saying, oh no!!! Lol!!! And when you broke that concrete block over the Conch, we both laughed our ass off!!! I guess when she was a young girl she said they boiled the whole shell and after it died it was easy to get it out with a wire hook. She also laughed at how much edible parts of the snail you cut and used for bait. Well, you didn’t know so it was a learning experience for you… We really enjoy all of your videos Ace, so please keep them coming.

[@DetailedCat]

Ok so for everyone wondering why no fish eat the barbershop shrimp. Its because the shrimp cleans fish and all pther organisms (can even clean you if you let it) so they don’t eat it because free cleaning is better than i tiny bit of food.

[@DetailedCat]

It basicly does the same thing as the Bluestreak cleaner wrasse. The difference is really that one is a fish and the other is a shrimp.

[@caliCHRIS559]

“Im not gonna do that”😂😂 good idea ace, good idea 10:46

I just recently went to the Bahamas and the conch salad is so good!! Definitely give it a try. Also I had conch fritters and they gave me Mayo ketchup to dip them in. So that’s an idea of something to dip your conch in.

If you just throw the entire conch in a pot of boiling water for a few minutes you xan get them out of the shell without all the trouble. Also can catch them in Virginia legally

Fun fact about the conch in cayman. The conch season begins in November until the 30 of April and the actual shell was used for decoration of the yard which back then was sand not grass or anything. Also used as a way of communication for the fishermen back then.
