Crayfish Catch & Cook - Amateur Hour (Sailing Popao) Ep.27

[@MichaelBuck]

Thank you for showing us this amazing reef and all the sea life, just an amazing and beautiful place to be. I dont eat shellfish ever but will eat fresh caught fish all day long. I find fish far more healthy and love to eat fresh caught fish with garlic and butter along with some quinoa and spinach. Every creature on the reef has a purpose, sharks clean up and eat the dieing and generically inferior creatures and the shell fish clean up the floor bottom, so between them its a nice clean reef beaming with life. The talley's, trout and others are sustainable and very tasty and fun to catch. No real reason to eat anything else but fresh fish IMHO. Have a great time on the outer banks, cant wait to see the fresh fish you catch there. Cheers!

This must be the most under valued KZbin Sailing Channel. The balance on sailing, fishing and cooking is always great. I hope you get to the point of making enough dollary do's soon.

[@sailingpopao]

Wow, thank you Kym :-) Yes it would be an added bonus to be able to make this full time, we're both back at work hence the delays with the videos atm. Would be great to pump content out but there just isn't enough hours in the day right now. Thanks for the support and watching :-)

[@billskelton3701]

Just one comment: Breathtakingly beautiful, and the cray dish looked incredible.

[@sailingpopao]

Haha thanks Bill! Can’t wait to show you the next location 😉

[@peterjohnstaples]

It amazes me that your channel only has 33K subscribers. Excellence again. Already watched the first part "out to the coral reef" looking good.

[@sailingpopao]

[@sidmar200]

@@sailingpopao Appreciate anything You Give us. After working at Bamaga for two years, stood on a 2 mtre king brown while pig hunting, attacked by a croc 4 mtre, and stung by a box jellyfish. Any vision of people diving and being at one with the sea is a blessing.

[@wozniakmedia]

@@sailingpopao soon, soooooo soooooon, have done extensive testing with cameras, positions, settings, to work out a formula so that once it kicks off it’ll be “smooth sailing”, pun intended 😂.

[@bencampbell2407]

Looked amazing, living the dream! Thanx for sharing! How's your lithium batteries going? Do you recommend that brand?

[@sailingpopao]

Thanks Ben, we are still stoked with our setup. It’s been such a set and forget process, we have a look every now and then to make sure they’re still there 😝 very happy and would recommend for sure.

[@Godsize]

Love from Nashville ! I miss y'all ! Be safe.. I'll tell you two about what's going on in my family soon.. I'm fighting to get my dad's health back give him a couple few year's more... it's the hardest thing I've ever delt with in my life ..

[@sailingpopao]

Oh Keith, we’re so sorry to hear! It’s such a helpless feeling watching our parents age and with illness, hoping you get him back to good health soon. Thinking of you mate x

[@Whitsundayphotos]

Dudes, maktuna, bonito any bloody tuna, trick is blanch it! , boiling hot water, in a fypan for a rew seconds, thin slices, the blood disperses almost instantly then you can cook it like a trout, nice white flesh, punk your mates.....or mash it with spuds and seasoning etc... fish cakes , enjoy 😀😜🙏

[@svsirenespirit5520]

Is that the Coral Sea Islands Territory, Saumarez, Holmes Diamond etc? I've always dreamed of going there after reading Cruising the Coral Sea. Can't wait to see more, so envious 😊

[@sailingpopao]

Hey legends! Yes it is, we didn’t have the wind angle to get to diamonds unfortunately but we managed flinders, heralds & Holmes! Can’t wait to share it with you.

12 12:33 great miss

[@sailingpopao]

Hahah that's the last time I listen to Michael on how to shoot a cray 😝

[@robertlaird6746]

Where did you set your anchor in this video? looks like nothing but coral all around.

[@sailingpopao]

Anchor for the big boat? We’re on sand only in this video, always very careful about that. Anchor for the little boat? We drift dive 95% of the time which is why we can’t film each other most of the time. Sometimes if it’s shallow we hook the painter line over a rock or whatever we can safely without damaging the coral.

[@thomasthornton5737]

😄👍👍👍❤

[@andreabolding5281]

Hi the stunning plate Coral, anything more than vGue Outer Coral Reef? Or you just want to stop it getting bombarded y tourists?

[@sailingpopao]

There’s a number of reasons we don’t specify exactly what Reef we’re at. In saying that, we’re more than happy to share most of our spots over DM if you’re super keen to get out to a safe reef anchorage.
