Yes to the sub station idea! After a day like that it’s best to end it around the table on the Orca with Quint, Hooper & Brody tossing back a 🍺 while breaking it down with a little “show me the way to go home, I’m tired and I want to go to bed” 5⭐️👍🏻

[@hummer4u2nv11]

Yes raw footage. You can do them similar to DeerMeatForDinner channel...when he cleans deer, gator,, or hog he basically just adds the raw footage as a 2nd link for us to choose within his description area. Then for those of us who want to see it can individually choose. And you don't have to worry about KZbin blocking your video due to blood & guts. By the way AWESOME channel, GREAT content.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

ah thats a good idea!

Wow, you know what you are doing. Makes a big difference. I am surprised that those sharks aren’t making passes at the speared and wounded fish. Love your channel.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

lots of practice! and depends on the day, I seem to get lucky with the sharks. almost never have wahoo eaten

[@jamescarpenter1999]

Keep them coming Aaron! Always a pleasure and a learning adventure! Thanks for taking us along!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

🙏

[@williamhughes5197]

I really liked the video. Honestly it seems easier to anchor the boat and hunt the incomers and the downright curious fish. Great experience talking when you went between the anchor line and the boat. These fish are capable of getting wrapped up in anything that is in the water. It's always nice to see the fruit's of our labor and enjoy doing the things you do to make it happen. Not sure if you take many requests for the channel but I'd enjoy some of the wreck diving for lobster,crabs and fish. Maybe exploring some other areas up the Keys. Lots of fun seeing the difference species of fish and identify them with us. Thanks for the great content and best wishes to the young lady you were teaching/ mentoring. As always stay safe!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

got lucky there for sure! and always appreciate feedback, I will add it to the list!

[@justuschmiii3173]

I guess the other boat ran out of water in the Atlantic Ocean that they had to come so close to you Aaron! Another great video my friend. Stay safe.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

haha right

[@JumbleTronChannel]

Always appreciate you taking us along. Spectacular sights as usual, but those manta rays were something else!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

was wild to see!

[@MegaVince09]

What makes these videos fun it’s you and Madeleyne but sure, I’ll watch raw scenes ☀️

[@KeyWestWaterman]

appreciate the feedback!

[@chlve]

Me and my mom would absolutely love to watch long form footage from you! If you make that uncut channel we would greatly appreciate the content and insight from watching the moment to moment decisions you make to try and learn some more, if you decide not to that's also ok but it's definitely a yes from us

[@KeyWestWaterman]

love to hear it I will try to get it going!

[@rodneyalaking8241]

That looked like a blast! It may be worth mentioning to new boaters that for the escape plan, don’t pull the anchor all the way up from the bottom. Have a buoy tied to the anchor line so you can quickly untie from the cleat and leave. The anchor, line, and buoy will remain in place. Nobody got the “Jaws” reference?

[@KeyWestWaterman]

it was! and baby steps, lol don't want to confused everyone. we use that method as well. and very few did haha glad someone did!

[@CarolinaRealEstateGuide]

Fan drifts in closer to say hello. Key West Waterman gives him a reality check.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

Absolutely Aaron. 150% yes on an uncut footage channel.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

love to hear it!

[@user-ld9jq5ns8t]

Very cool, kept me interested right thru. It's interesting how the use of flashers of all kinds get used for different kinds of fishing. I use many when trolling for salmon. Keep sticking em !

[@KeyWestWaterman]

love to hear it! and thats cool didnt know yall did that.

[@fldallyb]

I would absolutely love another channel from you. Especially the raw footage. But please do the narration that’s the best part.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really love to hear you enjoy it! on the raw channel I doubt I'd do the narratives, I guess I'd have to see, its just ALOT of footage to cover. would continue to do narratives on here.

[@jlo2017]

I watch plenty of videos in the 45+ minute range on other channels (but, I'm retired). You do such a great job editing and keeping it real, I don't think you need a sub-channel with the raw footage.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really love to hear that! thanks for the feedback! 🙏

[@ImpendingDuff]

I LOVE the commercial stuff!!! I’d love a in depth gear breakdown on what is needed for recreational spearing

[@KeyWestWaterman]

I've done some in the past, probably need to make a dedicated video for it!

[@petrhermanadventures9509]

I don't think you need a sub channel, just post a bonus "uncut" video once in a while. I don't think the algorithm will hate you for it and those that want to will watch. Great episode, enjoyed very much.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

yea may not be a bad idea, appreciate the feedback!

[@bubba8554]

great channel i grew up in the middle keys moved in the mid 80s best life experience ever so many memories

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoy it!

[@lewislambert2141]

Another classic video. It seems that no matter where you go, there's always that one boat that is too close, it looked as if he was there most of your dive. I would imagine you cutting floor video is better than ninety percent of others first cut, more the better, I vote for more.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

haha right! and thanks for the feedback I will try to get it going!

[@shannasilva2370]

I love all of your videos. You own slice of heaven! Conservative way you do things is awesome. We are headed to Key Largo in June to glimpse of that beautiful water!!!

[@jeromecalderone4526]

Four in one day just superb. Saw a manta years ago in 15 feet of water while we were are on a lobster crawl chase after a storm thing was huge and just so graceful.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

was a lovely day! its always a treat

[@borismato5606]

Yeah, that sounds good because the parts that would be removed are the best for learning how to prepare fish, its educational .

[@GmanfromTexas]

This was a great video. I like this edited version so I have the time to watch the whole clip. Beautiful water too. Tight lines

[@KeyWestWaterman]

thanks for the feedback!

[@jayrobertson232]

Perhaps a Minnkota bowmount deployed in spot lock would eliminate the anchor rope. Saltwater versions are available, and with 72” shaft, will keep the prop in the water. The digital Bluetooth GPS-operated spot lock function is amazing. Very reliable, easy to use, well engineered and built. Good luck.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

Wish i had that kind of money laying around! They are pricey from what i hear. And a spinning prop is the last thing you want with float lines shooting around.

[@sonnymolina8748]

Absolutely Amazing what you do 👏🏽you make it look so easy but I know it’s not I can’t wait for the uncut footage definitely will be watching for it have a great day

Man Aaron, your videos are like a breath of fresh air, keep it up, bro

[@KeyWestWaterman]

thanks so much 🙏

[@theaveragespearo9775]

So we anchor 99% of the time and we have the anchor set up so we can drop it. We attach a boat bumper to it. If a fish runs we ca quickly drop the anchor chase the fish come back and grab the anchor and re attach. Saves a ton of time both ways.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

yup, we do that as we'll. if I tried to explain that without showing it I would have confused everyone all to hell. lol

[@MtnLife-sv9fu]

Uncutt, why not. I like the footage and think alot of others would as well. Keep on keepin on...

[@KeyWestWaterman]

I will try to cover it some time! love to hear you enjoy the vids thanks so much! 🙏

[@goferizer]

Really enjoyed this video. Man what a nice mess of wahoos. I think many boaters (vs Captains) have no idea of what the buffer zone is for a dive flag. A sailfish could cover 300 feet in about 5 seconds. I think I might have a bad dream about getting tangled in braid!! 😲

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it! and yea it doesn't take long.

[@FLBeachDiver]

Speaking of boats close to dive flags, i swim out 3/4-1 mile off the beach to spearfish in Ft. Lauderdale area and I have a bright yellow body board with a big dive flag and i constantly have boats come full speed 50ft from my dive float and some less than 20ft. It’s insane how clueless some boaters are. I never though I would be more worried about boaters than sharks when I started this sport.

When I first started fishing in the Gulf quite often a dive boat would anchor on the same [public] wreck. We would pick up and find another spot. There was no point in staying because they would be right under the boat. They weren't free diving. I always thought that was inconsiderate.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

yea its a different ballgame if its a small spot and a fisherman is there first. thats just common courtesy.
