Catch and Cook Grennel (Bowfin) on the River Bank

I take Brody to the swamp to catch a Grennel (Bowfin) and cook it with our grub box and Coleman camp stove. we found some oyster mushrooms on the way in and cook them as well. #bowfin #catchandcook #outdoorcooking

[@loghawgtv]

The Grennel catch and cooks are by far my favorite, I’ve watched every one!

[@rebeccasilveous8898]

You pick the best bluegrass music to start off your videos. I love it!. And your little boy is so cute picking the mushrooms and fishing with his fishing pole. It's priceless!

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

He brings us a lot of joy.

[@denaredford6701]

Thanks for a video of you and your little pal Brody catching and cooking fishing . 👍🏻🩵🐟😊

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

He is my lifetime hunting and fishing partner

[@TheGrover1968]

When I was Brody's age, I liked cargo britches because they had a lot of pockets to keep hot wheels in. Always kept some hot wheels with me.

[@decorahnord9902]

What a fun little time fishing, catch and cook.,you're making such fun memories with Brody. I enjoy my videos and coffee every morning thank you Justin.

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Thank you

[@martinmeltzer2696]

Hey Justin! This was a lot of fun watching the three of you (Roscoe, Brody, & Yourself) have a great time & making some good memories! Trial & Error will reveal what items you need to take along on the next expedition... but I's say that you are just about there! Very soon now... Brody will be old enough & responsible enough... that all you'll have to do is hand him the list; then he'll pack it, load it in the vehicle, and off you go! (The Joys Of Parenting just never stop!) Thank you for making my day & sharing this with us. May God Bless You & Yours!

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Hes gonna be my lifetime hunting and fishing partner

[@martinmeltzer2696]

I see Good Times coming down the Road Of Life for both of you for a long, Long, LONG time to come! Enjoy the ride! @@SpiritoftheOutdoors

Good morning to u Justin! Having my am coffee watching u fish. So nice to see a daddy and son fishin. We just love ur content from way up here in the Foothills of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Aspens starting to turn now that cooler weathers setting in. Winter hits fast here. My hummingbirds are still hanging on though. Usually mid September they leave for warmer territory. Hope to see u on ur next live stream. Tonight i think? Ps. I have a praise report!!!! I been watching ur sermons lately and one in particular struck me. I have been much more careful with my words. Anyways, I had been praying last week for the hubbys job to bless him for he is a wonderfully talented man with integrity. Wouldn't ya know, two days later ye calls from work to say he has an interview w a new company. Long story short, he was blessed with $15 MORE an hour!!! Better working conditions etc. plus, they buy all his work clothing. Carhart gear. Beanies, coat etc...Including BOOTS! Praise G-d!! He is So GOOD!! This will enable us to upgrade to a larger rig (we are tiny home rv dwellers) For me, this is the ultimate. I love our tiny home and tiny living, but it is not kind to my body thru the long winter months here. I am in the process of conquering a chronic pain disorder. A 5th wheel toy-hauler will be our new home. I plan to turn the garage part into our 12' living room! I am SO THANKFUL! He cares for us so much and has given me all the desires of my heart, just in time. Isn't his timing always perfect?! By far the best thing is he has given me a G-dly man. A compassionate and capable one. He loves and cares for me always. I never had that before. (We are newlyweds of 4 years in our late 50 and early 60's) I just wanted to share the miracles he has blessed me with as u have played a part by sharing the Messages u do. And I also hope it encourages everyone, especially anyone struggling. He always is there to listen. Talk to Him n praise Him. Thank u Lord for loving a sinner such as me. Uall have a great day!!💜🌻💜

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

That is fantastic. Thank you for your Testimony , it will make you an overcomer. Things are the way we speak them and i speak life and blessing. I hope one day to come see the majestic mountains and maby meet yall

[@michalmcquaite4698]

@@SpiritoftheOutdoors words have power. We are what we think, speak and act on. We are proof positive of that. It would be a pleasure to meet uall in person and visit sometime. Iffen uall ever travel up this way, for sure give us a shout. This is G-ds country for sure. I used to dream on living here. And thats where I ended up. Uall have a super blessed day💜🌻💜

[@dannypowell2625]

Love the prayer and Brody’s knife. Good video!!

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

He got worried when he lost it . But we found it

[@Outdoors901]

You cracked me up watching you cook, film, and keep up with Brody and Roscoe. You're a brave man, lol. One of the hardest things I think I've ever done is take my 7yo twins and their 5 yo sister tent camping up at Land Between the Lakes for a long weekend by myself. Not a dull moment! One of my best memories and one of theirs too. They grow up before you can blink good. Brody is very lucky to have you teaching him the way you do things. Bless you, and let us know when you head up to Hernando again.

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

That is a beautiful place up there at land between the lakes. We should be bringing pottery sometime in the next few months

[@crawwwfishh3284]

Nice video. We use to smoke at rabbit backer when we were kids. Momma always new because we rolled it in brown paper sack and when we puffed it would flame up and burn our eyebrows off.

[@2003-2fitty]

Love love love this video! Y’all make me want to go fishing and cook it straight away like that! Looked DELICIOUS. Those mushrooms looked delicious too. (I wish I could find some around here to cook like that.) Brody is a blessed little boy to have a dad who puts so much time and effort into teaching him SURVIVAL SKILLS! I love watching y’all living such an old frontier lifestyle. I believe most of us “old souls” are yearning for that way of life. This new world is definitely not my idea of home. Till we get to go to be with Jesus I hope I get to enjoy seeing good people do wonderful things like this with their family. It’s a blessing to meet and know y’all. God bless y’all! 🙏🏼❤️Leslie and Jeremy in Florence

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

I put you some rattlesnake seed in the mail yesterday

[@UncleSasquatchOutdoors]

Food cooked out like that is the best and fish is the best when it's that freshly caught. Roscoe gave it his wag of approval.

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

He got a belly full before it was over

[@larryalexander4833]

Its so relaxing to watching good living. I would fry that fish and mushrooms up so goodt!! Great, now I'm hungry.

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Oh it was delicious. Always better on the creek bank

[@j.l.327]

Now thats real entertainment, great video, brody really seems prepared with that knife, he might jump on one of them gators, looking forward to the next one, take care

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

He was ready for whatever lol

Brody's just a natural born SAVAGE grennel catcher!! Eat em' RAW!!! Put 'em in the COOLER!!!

That boy is wild

[@craigsellier5973]

Hey Justin this was an awesome video. I'm so glad I found your channel. We gotcha programmed in an we will not miss one video. Y'all hunt, cook and live like we do here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. My motto "Olemoe" "Living Off The Land" that's hw we do it. We gonna make like y'all if things go bad 👎 we gonna make it me and mine and all those I can help. Keep up the great videos and God bless 🙌 🙏 you and your family always.

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Next time i come to Gulfport to deliver pottery we will have to meet. We stay in Long Beach usually

[@58landman]

I bought one of those plastic fish cleaning 'boards' with a big clip on one end of it from Bass Pro. It wasn't large enough for large fish so I removed the clip and mounted it at one end of an approximately 1 x 12 x 30" board and I use it for catfish and every other fish I have to clean. The clamp will hold the fish from moving around and the length and width of the board will handle even the largest catfish...unless of course you run into something too large for it. It's easy to keep in the truck, etc. Also, on your knives...and you know this already...buy yourself a good sharpener. I own a thing called a KME, I believe. It's quick and your knives will be sharper than you might ever get from a rock or whetstone, etc.

[@linwoodvowell6747]

Love the music

[@jamesboyer8]

nothing but cool

[@hagonfeasel7761]

Need to make some “put him in the cooler” shirts

Brody said that mushrooms no count 😂

If yall ain't haint luvin this here channel, then I don't think yall have a heart of flesh. This is pure natural livin, just like our great grandparents done it. It's healthy for ya, unlike the processed food we buy. Come on yall, get yer heads out where ever the devil's got em into and watch this lil old southern boy get r dun!

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Thanks my friend

[@cecilhathcock]

Hey brother. Install or keep a 1x10 board on the tailgate of side by side to fillet fish. I keep one in my boat works great. Keep up the great videos and spreading that gospel.

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

I had thought about that for sure. May do the truck to for tombiggbee trips

Looks delicious, im a saltaholic i would need it lol

My kind of video here! I'm wanting to get out and do the same. Getting ready for bow hunting right now though

“Self-lovers”…. That’s bout the cleanest I’ve ever heard someone cuss another person!

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

That is a good one aint it lol

[@kmnremtp]

@@SpiritoftheOutdoors it’s about like giving someone a “thumbs down” instead of “flipping them off”…. I feel like it would be far more effective in influencing folks to DO BETTER rather than just get mad.

[@bryanhughes8465]

Yes sir you had that one tied out lol

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Just about. I had seen one there a few weeks ago and water is bad low here so i stopped just to see lol

[@Anja-77776]

❤ dear brother, your channel is so nice, it is a lifestyle that I would like to have, it was always there for me but I couldn't find the partner. You live the way God intended (that's what I think) my life was one big disaster, even though I was not raised religiously, my wish was for one man with a house, tree, animal! When my father died, I did my own research into God (and found it❤️🙏). Thank God, without God in your life, people are completely lost and adrift! I am now 66 years old and too old, my entire (almost) entire family abandoned me when I chose Yeshua! unfortunately also a lot of pain due to osteoarthritis, and I am eagerly waiting for Yeshua to take us away from this dark earth. thanks for your videos, I enjoy them ❤ God bless from the netherlands ❤

You gettin into some oysters even as dry as it’s been?!

Put yourself one of the long grill lighters in that chuck box brother!

I ain’t trying to tell ya what to do, but it would be lots more convenient

I keep a lighter in my pocket . The ferrow rod will light that cooker

@@SpiritoftheOutdoors mannnnnn I looooove watching you cook them grennel!!!!

[@patrickwilson619]

You ever grow any mushrooms? Ive grown some pink oyster, lions mane & some blue oysters. I've foraged many times & we don't have wild mushrooms as plentiful as you do.

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Ive never grown any on purpose. Its been really dry so they have been hard to come by. May be some chanterelles after the rain but the temp dropped so i dont know . I need to look this week

[@Stoney327]

Howdy: Just curious since we don't have Grennel up here in the NE? Do they have teeth? I notice you NEVER lip them like guys do with a Bass? God bless: Two Feathers

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Yes they have very sharp teeth. Its a right of passage here to have been bitten at least once

[@jamiejohnston4983]

Did your stove come with that rubber hose? Mine has a hard line I'd like the rubber hose better I think

[@SpiritoftheOutdoors]

Yes it did. I bought this one used and its a vintage one i think
