[@Angelhorselady]

Really enjoyed this visit today! I always like to see the GoPro footage. Those Fish Puppies look awesome! Thanks for letting us escape through your adventures again!

[@Saiakaa]

Drove down to Pensacola last weekend. Bunch of mullet, undersized spanish and reds, people were foul hooking mullets. Would love to meet you one day at the pier Brant. Love your videos with the cooking in them and thanks for sharing the recipe!

[@andrewwillis4911]

Y'all done did it this time!!! Fish Puppies with Blue fish and Spaniards? Grew up eating all kinds of fish and those two were some of least favorite... until now! Always love this fishing aspect, but you and Melanie are making great looking and I'm sure tasting Seafood Restaurant dishes! Appreciate it as always.

[@tylerhimlin4365]

Hey Brant, Love your videos! Have you tried fishing under the 3-mile? The big bulls are running thick through there this time of year especially in the evening time.

[@tg1cent765]

Love and learn from your videos and please keep the catch n cook. Love to fish and love to try new things

[@brianjeffrey1790]

Great video Brant that was a really nice Spanish your fish balls puppies look delicious

[@caseychipley1671]

Great video brant it looks chilly buddy 😂 I see that Ricky was also bundled up 😂😂😂 thanks for sharing your life with us ❤❤❤

[@terrywatson2377]

That recipe looked amazing. Great video as always.

[@chriss8206]

Love your videos. You make good content and the fish puppy's recipe looks incredible, so many things you could do with this recipe like sandwiches. Also I have to say brant what a hell of a outdoor kitchen outstanding the nicest i've ever seen on a fishing channel.

[@ckellysmith]

The crunch sounded scrumptious!

[@jenndavin]

Love the catch n cook. I grew up eating corn croquettes made with blue fish. I miss that flavor. My evening treat. Please keep going on these.

[@jameswilson8731]

Always enjoy your videos keep up the good work. Be blessed.

[@flemingsoutdooradventures3122]

How about a bloops and blunder video that would be so fun to watch all the Uh Oh of this year

[@edwardlandry291]

Thank you for the U/W footage! Love it! The fish puppies remind me of codfish cakes which are to die for. Thanx!

[@FoulOwl2112]

Man them Fishpuppies looked outstanding! I make 'em similar. But instead of celery. I use whatever Greens l got in season. Mustards, Turnips, Collards etc... I've always used Cornmeal breading. But them bread crumbs look like The Bomb!

[@ConfusedFishingRod-gn8ej]

Love all your videos and all the content! You’re so easy to listen to! I don’t even fish that much and when I did I had no real idea what I was doing. 😂

[@The1BlackKrow]

This is one of the best vids I've seen you do. I watch them all. Love the fishing, love the catching, love the go pro footage under the pier, love the cooking and love the recipe pinned to the comments. What I want to know is how did you know I've been wanting a good fish puppy recipe??? LOL For me this was a Win Win Win video! Thanks man!

[@rocinblues]

Wow, love that outdoor kitchen !!

[@marinrands]

I love your videos! Next time we come to Pensacola, we're fishing that pier in hopes of finding you there!

[@madhatter2465]

Man! I love the Pier Fishing Videos of yours.

[@dannybryant6960]

Thanks , fish puppy recipe looks good !

[@mikelisa76]

Great videos. Moving to S Dakota . Probably won't see a bunch of salt water fishing 😢😢, but there is of fresh water. Thanks for sharing

[@David35445]

Come on up north for a bit of ice fishing in the new year. It's like pier fishing but colder.

[@ronaldwhite9176]

My man, I love your work all around ,from Brevard East Coast,🎉

[@one_new_skill]

Biggest one, go fishing, beauty sea. Lucky 🎉

[@hunterduford8684]

Great video, well done Brant

[@dedeanderson7880]

👍🏼 i love you catch clean & cook videos!

[@HaroldDean-b3k]

Great video! Thanks for the recipe!

[@geraldb8856]

100-degree temps for weeks on end followed by a day around forty is a drastic change. I live in NH, and I can still sympathize. Thanks for your channel. I watch everything you post.

[@Enjoythepour]

I love blue fish! Great video. Thank you.

[@marktracy2577]

Loving these cook videos!

[@chriss8206]

really like your pier, fishing ethics. Some people I've seen that are locals or professionals. Will literally run you over and knock your gear on the ground. Just to fight a fish, you are much more polite. Even when the situation gets stressful.

[@ScottFoster482002]

If you eat Bluefish fresh caught it's on of the best. You gotta bleed them the moment you decide to keep them though to be best. I used catch huge blues at Sebastian Inlet in the Spring and Fall when bait was running. Great fun on the jetties especially when the wind was blowing. We used to camp at the state park across A1A, for at least a week at a time. It was a short walk from the campsite but I drove cuz I had too many rods and I'm lazy. Tight lines 💙

[@BillMiller-x8x]

I enjoy your videos. There was a pier fisherman that was well known on the gulf piers during the time I fished regularly. Frank Helton was always on PB Pier and I always fished close to him he could see fish coming for a mile. He came on the pier when I was playing a 56 lb Tarpon and he waded in to make sure I caught it. I had is mounted and over the years it deteriorated. He was a charter captain in Destin. He made the cobia lure that was called Ding A Ling. Look him up he was very well known in this area. Keep a tight line.

[@williamandrews4251]

Love the Catch and Cook.

[@gregmclane9834]

Love watching pier/surf fishing 🎣🐟🎣

[@thomashunsickerjr937]

I LOVE the Catch & Cooks!!

[@thebeddoctor4273]

Yes please, catch and cook is awesome

[@TheCreepNDeath]

Recipe tweek : Put your mix in a egg roll. I've put pressure cooked carp/ drum into the mix , wrapped them in egg rolls and deep fry. Dip them in an awesome blossom dip. We call them "drum rolls". Good way to make "trash fish" edible. 😋

[@garrettaskins874]

Love your videos. I just got stationed in Pensacola. Getting into saltwater fishing. Caught my first Spanish the other day (not legal size). If you catch anything you don’t want I will gladly take it off your hands. My kids love fish. Keep making these videos!!!!!

[@jessearms4323]

Brant, what would you do without Mel behind the scenes filming, cooking, prepping sauces, luv ya girl. that was a really nice Spanish bro, and that Red right at 27" would have been on the grille getting blackened. I watch you religiously on both your channels, keep it coming.

[@jonluongo7250]

Enjoying the catch and cook !

[@carmensusi837]

Post the recipe please I have to watch you over and over and stop and go to write it down. Lol 😂

[@CarlosRuiz-ue9rb]

Great video, as usual. In order to catch more bait on bluebird days when the water is clear and the bait is skittish, swap out that pyramid for a teardrop.

[@emmanuelalviola4112]

I arrived there about 9:45 am, you were probably gone. The only productive action was the guys with nets having a ball with the mullet schools. I threw a heavy duty Sabiki rig with only 4 hooks (it comes with 8 hooks but I cut it in half) and snagged a mullet in the middle of a school. I did it twice and snagged another fat mullet. And then there no more schools so I went home and fried those mullets. Oh, I also caught 3 yellowtails, good thing because my wife stopped eating mullets ever since she saw something shaped like a worm on a smoked mullet years ago but she loves the taste of yellowtails.

[@Fishing4Reel]

The fact that you don't always score makes me feel better that I come up empty sometimes too. Not that I'm happy you didn't, but that I know to keep on pushing. Navarre Pier has been disappointing for me lately. Looks like I'm going to have to try Pensacola Pier next. I'm just down the road from that bridge over Pond Creek. A fellow at church said there have been some nice Striper being caught there lately. Gotta try those fish balls.👍

[@bobsacamano3099]

Your pier fishing videos are some of my favorites. What size sabiki do you use to catch cigar minnows?

[@nicklastaranto164]

Good video straight into the point I like it

[@stevenstrassberg3776]

I want some. I'm hungry!

[@glassontherocks]

You live in a fishing dream.

[@JohnMead-lk2wu]

Keep them coming, we love them

[@elizabethcarrington5819]

Fantastic! Now I’m going to be craving the fish puppies. Yum. Melanie fid a great job too. 👍❤️

[@darrinnaquin5678]

yeah...definitely a Cajun Trash Fish Classic! Also High Quality Fish Balls, Shrimp Balls, Crab Balls

[@tomromeojr6306]

I've ate blue many times, although its been years, and I dont even think we bled them. We ate them, the same day that we caught them, and we only ate the small ones, they were great!

[@Oogabooga673]

I’ve always loved blue fish they taste amazing to me

[@RalphOnofrio]

Went down to 30 last night here in Connecticut.......I still want fish now.

[@garybrooks2730]

hey Brant the cooler weather aint so bad eh , what are the pillar boxes every few feet on the pier

[@cornwasher]

Those Fish Puppies look terrific. Now, I have tried a number of times to make Hush Puppies since leaving Northwest Florida and never could duplicate how great they were.. If anybody has an authentic Hush Puppy recipe I would sure appreciate it.

[@dedeanderson7880]

Hi Melanie 👍🏼

[@1TakoyakiStore]

The only problem with Bluefish is you have to cook them the day you catch them (which is one of my favorite fish to eat btw) otherwise they will quickly get that strong fowl flavor that everyone seems to hate them for. I've also heard soaking them in soy sauce or milk (same as with whiting) helps if you need to store them in the frudge for a few days.

[@stratos175escape7]

Damn that looked YUMMY!

[@audelrivera6461]

Hey Brant going to be in the Panama city this week any suggestions for finding love your videos

[@DJMflpanhandle]

Another great vid

[@ashrafabdo7204]

What is the lure that you are using ?

[@tntoutdoors_]

Ok well I’m going to have to try to make them !!! 🧨🧨🧨

[@Onlyfins28]

Perfect timing !

[@josbe09]

Hey Brant what’s the avg. weather like there in Pensacola around the end of November?

[@patcrowe9780]

It was 34 last night here in S.C. and supposed to be around 37 tonight

[@mikehamilton9450]

Great video thank you

[@alltree78]

Were catching 10 lbers right now in the obx

[@PoblanoEscolar]

I would LOVE to catch a blackfin tuna off a pier. Do you have any advice on targeting them, or do I just go as often as possible and hope they show up?

[@stevehogan8829]

Hands down the best content provider out there. I'm still stuck inside here because of Bad water and wind my area. A big thank you.

[@roberthyde174]

great video

[@brianturck274]

think I'd be heading back to that pier with some blue crab.. turn them into a few oversized reds..

[@huntfisheat73]

I love bluefish always have . I just clean salt and pepper light flour and fried. Ill take fried blues and mullet over redfish all day everday

[@Educated_Eggdicator]

how much time do you spend cleaning your deep fryer?

[@marthadolezal3335]

I make fish cakes just like crab cakes. They are delicious.

[@GeorgeMoody-q6y]

Stir that shit with your hands. Looked absolutely great. I will be making this soon.

[@GHoutdoors]

I don’t know how you work those xraps from that high up. I’ve never been able to do it

[@bryanjones9864]

What is the app that you use for open and closed season

[@toddwaite9978]

Can one of you off shore fish? You three beach fish all the time!

[@poindxtr2000]

Fwc needs to look at the video and go to 1 over slot like Alabama 😂 see y'all in November from Huntsville Al

[@northface484]

I caught 6 mullet from the Surf today with Pomp Rigs on FISHGUM.....

[@FluffyPantsReviews]

What size x rap and model is that you are using?

[@jeffjenkins5402]

When you come out on a pier and start catching fish right off the bat do people not get mad at you?

[@joelongano7192]

are you just free lining them?

[@williammathews6603]

catch an cook,by all means! which one was the best,blue fish or spanish? staysafe..

[@williamandrews4251]

What is the price on the Rapala X Rap?

[@roberthahn482]

Love seeing catch and cooks. Especially with off species of fish. The fish normally not well accepted

[@jasoncapecod]

up in the NE...you couldn't even get a raccoon to eat blue fish..

[@skaflagoon]

Git some!!!

[@ElainaSearles-s2h]

Have you ever tried bleeding your fish? It gets rid of the fishy flavor.

[@robertswainwright]

Sweet

[@RalphOnofrio]

I want fish now.

[@TinovanderZwan-t5f]

Strange at 11:10 you caught a female voice underwater saying ''stop walking around'' in ghost-hunting circles that's called a class A EVP where you can understand each word but I've never seen anybody catch one underwater!!!??

[@joeyret.617]

this might work with an air fryer

[@anthonyfoti9718]

If you cut the dark red meat out of the blue fish, it will taste much better.
