Exploring the Florida Keys Uninhabited Islands (A Tropical Paradise)

[@willschroeder7089]

Hey guys, my wife myself and my brother ran into you guys last month at a Tiki bar there on sugar loaf key complete with the captain! You could not have been more genuine and kind. We were a little starstruck and overserved, but you posed for some great pictures with us and were just the way we hoped you guys would be! Would love to bump into you again someday. Love your vlogs of the keys, wish we could've stayed longer.

[@CaptainDave305]

You guys were awesome!

[@eightysixcommunism2827]

It would be so wild to meet the Odens!!! When they were in the U.P. last year we hoped we would run into them but not yet that lucky. I would love to cook for you or with Kelly! We actually found you lovely souls by searching for Pad Thai recipes. 😂 Have to visit the Captain while in FL next time. MUST. 🎣🌺🎣

[@willschroeder7089]

Thanks Dave, you were too! You're a great addition to the channel.

[@CodyandKellie]

It’s always nice to meet our fans! We love you guys!

[@BigT962]

Would love to meet them

[@kearnsey64]

Cody looks like Kenny Loggins back in the day, lol! That fish looked incredible! Ya’ll need to just move to Key West!!😍😍😍

[@dorisweems1510]

Kellie's food always looks so delicious.

[@ursinidaho]

Amazing places with no people and lots of clear aqua blue water. This is just so pretty!

[@CodyandKellie]

It really is!

[@DelFlo]

Wow those little coves look just like the ones I visited in Cuba!

[@wendyrobertson-c6m]

Ya'll are making this Florida born n raised lady SOOOO homesick! Was born in Miami but raised on Pine Island where my bicycle was the kicker boat and my roads were the back bays and inlets and anywhere we could cram a canoe or kayak just to see where the opening went. I miss being able to go out on the water any time i chose to but NEVER EVER go alone! Happy trails and safe travels to ya'll!

[@judyderieux8484]

Lots and lots of fun fishing. Thanks for taking us with you. Love Dave and his wife...

[@CodyandKellie]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jimmyrosen9424]

Native Floridian here: Cody, the shell you found is a "welk" and not a conch.

[@melissazwieg2988]

🌅🌅🌅 sweetest couple!!! always so good to each other!!!

[@78twood]

I LOVED THIS VLOG 💜 I was raised in St Pete but moved out of Florida after a divorce. After living 27 years in Florida, having a boat, getting out on the water, spending so many times at the beach, I can actually feel all of what yall are doing. I can smell the ocean air. It’s making me SO HOMESICK for the beach! AND fish tacos under the tiki hut ?! Life just doesn’t get any better than doing exactly what yall are doing 😆💜 I could watch these videos every week and never get tired of them lol. Even when yall got back from a day on the water and Cody talked about how the sun just took it all out of you, I felt that too ! Countless years of experiencing that same feeling 😅 Love yall to pieces 🥰

[@CodyandKellie]

Thanks for watching

[@whydoibother1632]

Glad you ran into Too Apree. enjoying your outings

[@CodyandKellie]

Glad you like them!

[@briancaldwell1798]

You all have fun and be safe out there!

[@riverratt8626]

A tip for Dave's camera. Move it back to the overhead bar above the center counsel or mount it off the counsel it's self. The reason is you want the front of the boat in the video for a reference point in video's, especially going through canals and rivers.

[@CaptainDave305]

Thanks for the advice. I’m working on getting another camera so I can have multiple mounting options.

[@jodiesebek2440]

We love camping at Sugarloaf Key back before the last hurricane. We would paddle board over through the mangroves . Your trout pasta sounds delicious 😋

[@DaveSoza]

Can't believe I just found this channel I have only seen a few episodes ..yeah living the dream .

[@ginfizz3419]

Kellie and Cody I think Florida looks good on you both...That would become my home base for a long while..

[@CodyandKellie]

We don’t wanna leave 😭

[@azdesertrat9104]

Cody, you and David are having more and more 'bro-mance' moments! 😂🤣 I love it! Watch out Kelly, you might have some competition! 🤣You two really seem to be loving all that Florida Keys lifestyle! No one could blame you two for having a second home there. It's good enough for Jimmy Buffet and Kenny Chesney. it's good enough for me!

[@helenyolosalon3099]

You two Are the cutest couple ever!!

[@jessicadeitzmontgomery9870]

Arkansas girl here and yall have me wanting to relocate to Florida. Great video!

Lovin these videos down in the Keys, you guys have some of the best videos and photographs I've seen. Also, I have learned so much from both of you. You do an amazing job explaining history and details about your explorations. I love learning from your experiences. Its a cheap way to travel without leaving my home. LOL. Love the cooking on most videos. I jusrt wish I could have Kelly full time to prepare meals for me. HA...... you two are just wholesome nice enjoyable folks to watch. Your love and joy between you is amazing. You truly do have an angel princess, Kody, but Kelly has a stud muffin.......... Hugs from Iowa

[@CodyandKellie]

Great video. You guys are making the most of the Keys. Awesome

[@CodyandKellie]

Thanks! 👍

[@rickibelden986]

Florida state is a bucket list vacation for me. Thanks for the tour ❤.

[@eightysixcommunism2827]

We did a tour of Florida a few years ago. Drove past Miami and didn't regret it. Naples, and the keys were the highlights of our memories.

[@AceIfHearts]

If I had a solar trailer kitchen like yall have. I would be camping more often.

[@edwardcorino8327]

Beautiful. Area of Florida. Not much into fishing. But it looked fun. Ya’ll have fun

[@CodyandKellie]

Thanks 👍

[@chinoyhealingfoodstravels8888]

[@CodyandKellie]

Thanks so much!!

[@danielletalerico2889]

Hey guys I just subscribed to your Channel I've been watching you for a while on KZbin but it was on my television so I thought I'd jump on my phone so I can subscribe to your Channel. I absolutely love you guys I've spent so much time watching your videos I feel like I know you, I'm a lot older than you guys probably twice your age and I live in a retirement community in Clearwater Florida, I've been thinking seriously about selling my place and buying an RV and going full time I know a little bit about living on the road cuz I used to be a truck driver and your truck camper is probably four times the size at least on the inside than my semi was and I was totally content in there cuz I had everything I needed TV microwave, toaster oven ,television, Etc, I know a lot of people at my age would consider getting off the road and getting a Sticks and Bricks home, but I'm bored to death sitting here day after day I would rather spend my last few years rving and seeing the country in a way in which I can actually stop and smell the roses and enjoy it rather than just passing through to make a delivery, anyway I absolutely love your videos and I just wanted to let you know, God bless and stay safe out there.

[@CodyandKellie]

Thank you for watching! Hope you get to start your journey some day.

[@arroyoriverrat]

I love the Florida series you guys are doing!

[@teresap.5991]

😂 Cody if you're the worst fisherman,I'm second. I love fishing but I only ever caught one big bass and a catfish once. The rest were perch😢. Enjoying the heck out of your Keys life!!! Hugs both of you ❤

[@jimsix9929]

those fish tacos look so good!!!

[@annettezachery4229]

Hey Ho! Thought foresure you were going to find Captain Jack Sparrow on that beach. Loved it all! 🏖😎

[@CodyandKellie]

You and me both! 😎

[@TheDaubSquad]

Oh my gosh! We were there in August 2023. We missed the end of the road bridge. It was SO HOT. We did kayak around Sugarloaf Key though.

[@РоманДмитренко-ъ4н]

Приятно смотреть и слушать. Вы классные👍

[@supersonicdevin3212]

No flipping way! I have been looking up videos on the islands in FL. You guys read my mind! lol

[@philandthedash1682]

Do yourself a favor and buy the cookbook! We have had ours from that first run they did, still haven't tried everything. But have a ton of favorites

[@KennethRevils]

Beach spot looked super cool to O.N. there...Can you do vid with the natives there that never gave up to US military..❤ Y'all, so respectful..kind..thank u

[@rivasoutdooradventures]

You could’ve totally eaten that Jack lol it’s really not bad at all. With the way Kelly cooks, she will make it taste great! I really enjoy your videos by the way! You guys are so fun to watch. I’d love to live your same lifestyle but with 2 little kids, it can be difficult. Someday I guess! So glad I came across your channel! Keep bringing these FL keys videos!

[@CodyandKellie]

Definitely!!

[@wayneukes2438]

Enjoying your FL Keys sojourn with Cap'n Dave. Beautiful videos, as always, Cody! Wishing I could afford long days on the water with the Captain! Northern Lite truck campers here. We do lots of cooking. Thinking how to do spices in the camper and considering your spice rack. 1. How do you use the space in the cabinet behind the spice rack? 2. Do square spice bottles also fit into the spice rack (such as Simply Organic brand in many supermarkets?) Thanks so much.!

[@CodyandKellie]

We store coffee behind it. Yes, any square spice bottle will hold.

[@anthonyvisor8880]

[@jamestopeka2236]

I love Florida and Philippines , it's kinda alike in weather and trees .

[@FRZNTYM1]

Content and the Passage is one of the most beautiful spots by boat down there. Careful don't give location away as this area is still considered pristine by most.

[@jenniferfisher530]

I know your ❤️ is in Arkansas but I also think y'all love Florida too.

The content caught my attention. Watching all your interesting videos is my favorite, please send me your full support and thumbs up I am always waiting for your creative posts to stay in touch. Thanks for sharing

Kelly And Cody I Used To Live In Daytona I Have Never Been To The Keys. Thank You For Showing This Video I Heard BEAUTIFUL STRANGE STORIES ABOUT THE KEYS. ,DAYTONA IS VERY VERY SCAREY TO LIVE AND VISIT. ADVISE NEVER TRY DAYTONA

[@CodyandKellie]

We just drove through there

[@snowbirdlady7221]

Another beautiful adventure! Its so strange to me to see you out in the water that far and yet its so shallow. Completely different from the Pacific - except in Hawaii. Cody, you have really acquired some great skills with the drone. Your work keeps getting better. Just curious, do they make water proof drones??? If it lost power, would it be a goner? Something tells me you two will be looking for a house in the Keys.

[@CodyandKellie]

Thanks for the kind words! I don’t think they make waterproof drones. If it fell in the water it’s over. We’re on our second drone. We wish we could live down there but it’s $$$$$.

[@cominguproses8481]

Love what you guys do!! I keep trying to get your cookbook but it is always sold out, any idea when it will be back in?

[@CodyandKellie]

Not really sure. We got to sell some T shirts first 😂

[@MtnTechie]

You guys are having too much fun….bout time to have some kids! 😂

[@TrimansWife]

Jacks are absolutely edible! You just have to smoke it, not grill or fry it. Soak in buttermilk for awhile then pat dry and season up! shame on David for not knowing this! They are very fun to catch!!

[@CaptainDave305]

You can technically eat any fish but why would you want to choose a Jack over Mangrove Snapper? That’s also a lot of work to make a subpar fish somewhat edible. I think I’ll leave those for you.

[@TrimansWife]

@@CaptainDave305 thanks! We like them okay, if that’s all we can catch for the day. Better than nothing! Happy fishing!

[@YoniiXP-sc2tz]
