With you’re knowledge and confidence, you could make a lot of money taking folks on an adventure, I’m very impressed.

[@OutOnTheReef]

great idea cap thank you

[@bekirbayburt6157]

Every time I watch your videos I feel like i am on my friend's boat. Strange feeling, not knowing you yet feel like a close friend. Thanks for sharing. Be safe..

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks that's great to hear and welcome aboard cap.

[@douglasmeisenbach3718]

amazing, you do it all just like camping out only its in the ocean...I enjoy and learn lots from your blogs...

[@OutOnTheReef]

Glad you enjoy it! Douglas👌

[@robb1460]

@5:32 and even smaller boats sometimes like this here, a Crooked PilotHouse DINGY! LOL! I Had to say this, you're doing great on your vids and your Crooked boat.

[@OutOnTheReef]

thanks cap.

[@Captain_Clark_CDoryAdventures]

I just found ya last night. Interested in pilot house boats. Can't wait to watch the other 470 videos bro. Tight lines Captain!!! 🐟🐟🐟

[@OutOnTheReef]

Awesome captain and welcome to my channel thank you for watching👍🛥⚓️

[@daledevito]

that water splashing on the hull would drive me nuts

[@OutOnTheReef]

For me it was great to sleep

[@2fast4you25]

That when you know your a real boater, best music there is to fall sleep. 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

Hey Capt, In the future when you catch another eel, slap them hard in the water. Swing them around and let it hit the water as hard as you can. That will stun them and the won't wrap up your rig. It will also uncoil them sometimes. At the very least they will be stunned and you can manage them easily. I use them for snapper and grouper bait. After I stun them, I cut the head off about 2" behind the jaw as they have that part in their throat that can impale your fingers. I use an old rag and peel off their skin then fillet the entire eel. Cut the strips into the lengths you want. The meat is very tough and won't come off easily. Plus it makes great cut bait. Good luck captain 🤙

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thank you Mike for the awesome information I did not know that so that slapping them in the water would make them calm down thank you for the great suggestion and I will put it to the use captain Thanks again and navigate safe Mike

[@fungus4758]

@@OutOnTheReef Always happy to share what I know. Now go slay some snappers n groupers capt. 😎

[@gunterfdudicz]

I just started watching your videos their great good job, I just wanted to give you a hint on barracudas they are great cut bait, fillet and cut into strips the skin is so tough you'll have to cut it off with a knife.

[@OutOnTheReef]

did not know that cap. and welcome aboard my channel Cap.😉👍

[@waynemcphail7825]

Great videos.

[@OutOnTheReef]

thanks Wayne

[@brandywine3235]

When you catch those small fish, instead of throwing them back, use them as live bait. Also use a sabiki rig to catch the smaller bait and reuse those as live bait. Also watch a couple videos of trolling in the gulf. You could troll for a few hours on the way to the Bahamas and catch some nice Tuna, Mahi or Wahoo. Keep up the good work!

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks for the great recommendations captain

[@Aaron.Davis56]

@@OutOnTheReef Throw them back unless they're legal to keep. Foreign country, different rules. Small fish still have to meet size and season regs. Still catching up on your videos Captain!

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@Aaron.Davis56 thanks you sir😉👍

[@davidgibson5257]

Hi captain its your buddy captain david again buddy i was wondering do you have trouble seeing when boats running ? I have been looking at parker boats they say the new 2021 dont ride high anymore they fixed the ride of them i was just wanting to see if you have any trouble ? Thanks for any info stay safe buddy . captain david out

[@OutOnTheReef]

Hello David and yes I do have a little bit of visibility obstruction but with the trim tops and the hydrofoil you can alleviate a little bit of that⚓👍

Thanks Captain Rick

[@John-bx6ed]

Great video -Good choice on not touching the eel - I’ve seen injuries from that

[@OutOnTheReef]

Wow and how bad has it been do they carry poison

[@2fast4you25]

Whats up cap !!!! man you need some CAFE CUBANO in the mornings to realy get going, that coffe is way to watery 😜😜😜😜😜🤪🤪🤪🤪👌👌👌👌👌

[@OutOnTheReef]

Yes it's too watery but is Starbucks it tastes really good and since I lived here since I was 11 years old I got used to drinking a little bit more than normal stronger American coffee Right now it's talking to you I'm drinking a cappuccino lol🚣‍♂️

[@OutOnTheReef]

I'm glad you're enjoying my trips captain

[@yumyum408]

El cafe es esencial Capitan😉😎

Your living the life. My friend

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks Cap.

[@D645W]

Little tip when your bottom fishing. If you want the bigger fish, use longer mono or fluorocarbon between the hook and weight. 6-10 feet or longer if possible to get the bait away from the weight. The big fish will get spooked, especially the larger mutton snapper.

[@OutOnTheReef]

That's great advice I will try that next time and I think you a hundred percent right

[@hookednrolling2009]

Out On The Reef yes Capt I agree 2 oz slip sinker with swivel some use twenty feet 15 or 20 lbs flouro snapper takes the bait he won't feel weight jt

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@hookednrolling2009 that makes a lot of sense

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@hookednrolling2009 thanks Cap.

[@life-py2gw]

Nice to see you again it's all about having a good time in the water Keep safe brother

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks Ivan

[@froggleggers1805]

The hook should rust out if its not stainless.

[@OutOnTheReef]

yes that how it will work cap.

[@Sammieswann]

That eel meat is great for catching Nassau grouper,strawberry grouper and other big fish

[@OutOnTheReef]

Did not know that maybe one day I try it

[@Sammieswann]

Just be careful with it

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@Sammieswann thanks Cap.

[@Sammieswann]

And keep putting out those good videos cap

[@davidmaisel8062]

Eels can bite really bad! They are hard to cook right as well. Barracuda can be poison or delicious. Good call on the fishing The fun is in the hunt! Safe passage Captian!

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thank you David

[@bigbignourdine8627]

Nice. ...veidoe capetin ⛵🌞🌴👍

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks Cap.

[@sailingddcircumnavigation5931]

Sir if you buy something called the ballyhoop and you chum you'll have all the live bait you want. You can also buy some Sabiki rigs you can't go to the Bahamas without live bait. Good luck sir.

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks for the great advice Captain really appreciate it. Navigate safe

[@pstone7657]

An honest question Captain. Years ago my Brother in law would take his 46 ft Bertram to Bimini. For safety they would have assault weapons on board. This was 20 years ago. I would think the problem with pirates has gotten worse not better? what's been your experience with pirates to all these waters you travel into?

[@OutOnTheReef]

is always in my mind but but never had a problem cap.

[@Ushootout]

Esperate y donde quedo el sirope hecho de azucar agua y canela . Receta cubana Btw I eat eel once and was a great white meat Great video as always my friend

[@OutOnTheReef]

Gracias Capitan. Y nunca se me olvido cuando nos tropesamos el los Keys. Great memories Cap. Ssludos

[@Ushootout]

@@OutOnTheReef man tenemos q planear si estas por los cayos algun dia . Aun te debo un par de cervezas

[@nw3b3r]

Don’t be afraid to keep a remora, especially the bigger ones. They taste great. Side by side with cobia you won’t see or taste a difference. The problem is the average size remora doesn’t yield much meat. 😉👍

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks Cap. I did not know you can eat those

[@hootertexas9711]

Do you know any low key charters there? I’ll be in the Bahamas in a couple weeks.

[@OutOnTheReef]

Im sorry Cap. I dont but I hope you have a great trip in the Bahamas

[@yellowbellyfishlife1510]

I like the way your boat is set up when I win the lottery bye me one just e yours

[@OutOnTheReef]

I know they're expensive I've been waiting for one for a long time already

[@DanGoodBBQ]

I would have done the same with that eel. It will shake the hook out of it with no problem. Other than that it look like a go day fishing. Great video thanks for posting.

[@OutOnTheReef]

Thanks Dan I really appreciate it

Hello Captain, I have heard barracuda is a good tasting fish to eat. Have you ever tried it? Great video. Thanks for sharing.

[@OutOnTheReef]

I have tasted it from some people that know how to cook it and taste very good but I don't know how to cook it I tried it once and I didn't like it that much so I need to learn how to cook it well. Thanks Cap.

[@RobertGarcia-mk6ph]

If I find a good recipe for preparing the barracuda I will be sure to share it with you.

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@RobertGarcia-mk6ph please do Can you list it here in the comments

No. A.c. Last night

[@OutOnTheReef]

I had it on at night but at night like around 4 in the morning I shut it off cuz it got too cold

Use the maple bacon grease as syrup

Is around $5 per gallon

Great video captain, how do you keep ice cool for such a long time?

That cooler that you saw is very thick is very heavy has a lot of insulation I can keep ice in there up to seven days

Great video - I still bear the scars from an eel who didn't like me taking his lobster! I don't know if there is a safe way to remove the hook. I would have done the same!

At night if you don't lower the temperature of the AC it could get close to the 60

[@mikejenkins4598]

Please take time and care to do the right thing unhook the Eel

[@brandywine3235]

Mike it was clear that he didn't want to get hurt doing it. So instead of telling somebody to do something they are not comfortable with, education him on the proper way or using a proper tool to do it correctly.

[@OutOnTheReef]

i agree thanks cap.

[@myfast5oh]

compra una caja de Manhedan chum y un saquito para el chum. .. bosca la coriente y amara el saco con chum para q el chum camines con la coriente. 1. el chum sube el pescado a ti especialmente el yellow tail. 2 tambien trea carnada vivo y con un cast net tiene carnada fresca y vivo. (El pes no le importa el tipo de barco ni el tipo de fishing rod o loque te costo.. :) le importa solamente la calidad de carnada.. muy importante). los peses que trea el chum mas cerca son los chiquito.. tira mas atra para los grandes... buena suerte... enjoying your vids..

[@OutOnTheReef]

Muchas gracias por los exelente tips Capitan, los tratare de usar en un futuro. Gracias Cap.
