[@aaronenlow2629]

Well little brother, I’m 53 , been cleaning fish for at least 45 years and I still love watching your videos just the the way they are!!! Forget the haters and knuckleheads. Love y’all’s content GOD BLESS

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

I appreciate that

[@Will7981]

I know how to clean fish, but I also like seeing how someone else does because you can learn other, sometimes better, techniques. The cleaning part of the video is one of my favorite parts.👍🏻

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

Very true! Thank you

Hey brother, I can’t believe that you get complaints about your content. I enjoy watching all of your videos. Keep up the good fight.

[@jimmythai8198]

Keep up the great content Tug, do not mind others negative comments. No matter how many times I see everyone clean fish, it is still great to refresh the mind. Catching, cleaning and cooking is how everything started.

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@mastergunnerysgt1258]

Tug, do what you need to do for your channel, for many people like myself, us old timers understand that this is the way of life. We got 3 flounder over 25 to 32 in and many more that are league in the bay. We rolled 2 large fillets with crab meat and spice's in the oven at 350 for 50 min's and it was the best thing since slice bread. So Tug keep on doing of what you feel is best .

I'm from Lauren Louisiana I grew up hunting and fishing and cleaning fish I just like your videos has real good content in it with people I don't know people that don't get out I used to knock off work on Friday and go fishing all weekend and I'm no rich person a commercial fisherman just because that's something I like to do now I'm stuck up here in Northwest Arkansas and I'm landlocked they have a man-made lake that's not real good fishing don't change nothing I enjoy it

[@TbonzEbert9]

Whoever said to skip the filleting needs to go find one of the big sell out channels that doesn’t show it anymore. I’ve been filleting fish my entire life and it’s still interesting to observe and learn how other outdoorsmen were taught. Keep the vids up, all of us that have been on KZbin for 10 years are getting tired of the marshmallows that the original guys are turning into. Don’t sell out, keep it up

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

I appreciate that!

[@NorthFloridaSaltwaterFishing]

I have never been flounder gigging. That looks like a blast not to mention very productive 👍. The modification you made to your cooler to pull the flounder off the gig is very cool. I always look forward to your videos. Tight lines 🤙 🎣

Totally agree with you on the sweet potato fries, only mean to serve mashed with a lot of marshmallows on top. Great content… keep doing what you’re doing!

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

Yes! Thank you!

[@maliaw8392]

If Crystal loves that corn with the bacon, she should try pan fried milk corn. Cast iron pan preferred, but not necessary, frozen corn (bicolored if you can find it), sugar, salt, and milk or half and half. This cooks over a low-medium heat so you don’t scorch the milk. The longer it cooks that softer the corn and the sugar helps sweeten it while a pinch of salt balances everything out. It’s one of my hubby’s favorite sides! And I have subbed in rendered bacon grease for the butter. Even better! Thanks for the video and recipe!❤

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

Yum!!! Thank you sharing the recipe

[@paulderouen8566]

Absolutely Crystal needs her own channel.

Back in the day. I would gig 50 to 60 on a cold night between St. Augustine and Palm Valley. Back then, you could sink the boat with reds. Now, you have to move them to gig a flounder because there so many in the ICW

[@saenole66]

Beautiful flounder. Prudomme makes the best blackening seasoning. Flounder is alsoa great fish to scale and cook whole so none is wasted.

Watching that flounder take off on that miss was awesome. Such amazing fish. Especially when they can “hit reverse” on a dime. You should try coming up to Cape Cod for a fluke (summer flounder) trip on the Nantucket Shoals. I have a feeling you’ll like it!

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

I bet you’re right

[@tdee17]

Tug, keep the vids coming just like you are doing. For those who are learning to gig at night (me included) doing it from a 25 foot center console powered by a trolling motor, is a challenge. Tug (i think) uses a 10-14 foot with shallow draft and uses the gig to pole across 1-2 foot of water. Also, I'm on the Gulf Coast fishing the estuaries...flounder are small inside but hopefully I'll find keepers eventually. Anyone one have experience gigging in Tampa area?
