Hiding in mangroves from the LAW | catch and cook

Sometimes I don't follow the rules. Now I just have to not get caught...

I was fishing from a paddleboard in the Florida Keys and got stopped by law enforcement FWC and it turns out I need a lifejacket, whistle and lights on my paddleboard. I did not know this...
I spend the next 3 days fishing in the mangroves and hiding from the law. If I got pulled over while fishing again I was defiantly going to get a ticket. So it sort of felt like running from cops, although obviously this catch and cook is not so serious.
Hope you learn something from this fishing in the mangroves catch and cook and enjoy the journey!

You should never be running from cops! Just stick to fishing and if you break the law on accident I guess you gotta take the ticket. I hope you enjoy this catch clean and cook. It's not the best snapper fishing we've had on the South Florida Fishing Channel but it was a great time filming some solo fishing

[@ThoughtfulWander]

ok now you have told them where you are 🤣🤣😂😂👊👊👍👍be safe 👍👍

[@arbilklamp7867]

DUDE, you're like my Stoner Fisherman Hero! I literally laughed out loud at some of this video content. You're not phony or staged, and show the good with the bad. A business man, smokin hot girlfriend, breaking nonsense rules, drinking booze on the board, doing what you love, and not catching a damn thing! I absolutely love it! But when you do catch something, you cook delicious meals. Keep up the great videos man. It's called "fishing" and not "catching" for a reason. I could definitely drink some beers with you, and would love to go fishing sometime. If you're ever in the Pacific Northwest(Seattle area) let me know. Be well Brother!

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

thanks for all the love man

[@jakejacobson2999]

Just ask to take him on a date already

[@stephengreen9540]

You are living the dream that the haters would love to live you got the life brother keep it up

[@daffyduck9901]

If you hate haters then you are a hater technically

[@bluedoggum8373]

A paddle board you need a life jacket. A surfboard you don’t, makes sense.

[@margekaralis4212]

We really enjoyed your video. 4 days two grunts. Good for you. You didn’t quit

[@kennethlaibson6506]

We are Fishing for the Very Elusive Tree Bass 😂 Just Kidding Heiko

[@Brandon.Keenan]

Man I just gotta say again, you have one of my favorite channels on KZbin. The real life side of things you give us is much more satisfying than the over produced videos that are more like TV shows. Keep up the great work

[@TheDrummergirl33]

Grunts are delicious that is for sure . I’m so glad you like the dishes , they looks great in your kitchen . ❤

[@robertingram7946]

You know Yeti makes a collar to put on your Yeti bucket. The collar can hold many items including a rod. There are pockets all around it.

[@biffjohnson2076]

Maaaan, you shoulda hit that dish with some fresh green onions from the garden. POW! Great vid!

[@brianmurphy8154]

Heiko throws a barracuda 20 yards off his boat…also Heiko…”he got away…” hahaha

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

😂 that gave me a good chuckle

[@pingjockey]

You've got a john boat and a center console. Why make it more difficult with a yuppie slipper?

[@gradybrowning3976]

Yea Boy My show is on!

[@scottmoskowitz8788]

Get some carabiners and some shock cord. I knew about the pfd. Didn’t know about the whistle. When the weather went to crap during mini season, we ended up catching out lobster off the paddle boards.

[@ellenmorgan6923]

Thanks for the latest video

[@candicemonsour6294]

Tree VS fish count. Love that! Life jacket and an inflatable paddle board. If you fall off just grab the board?

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

It’s like a surfboard and you don’t need a life jacket when surfing. So I don’t get the law

[@benadams8989]

I live through your videos

[@FishingwithCristina]

11:22 😂😂 that was funny my dog looks like that she recently passed away.

[@AngieWolfK72]

You’re a blast to watch! Thank you for sharing your few days!!

[@ronaldbeatty9423]

Had a great time with you fishing.😊

[@Amicaner]

LMAO this was so funny and back to your roots. Love it! We have manatees in the backyard regularly also! another great videos!

[@daltonboucher8162]

Even tho you don't catch a fish your getting a thumbs up just for you putting your time in

[@lb7wade518]

The bees are trying to tell you to put that damn life jacket on!!

[@fungus4758]

Waz up Heiko.... You remind me of me being a rebel. You have a point, you're on a surfboard and surfers aren't required to wear PFD's. And like you, I wouldn't either 😂 That fish at 24:11 is a dog snapper. The give away coloration is the white "teardrop" triangle below the eye. The schoolmaster does not have that. Those captions are hilarious as all f@&k 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Catching anymore trees, you'll be a vegan 🤣🤣🤣 As far as what lure to use, remember the phrase - match the hatch. Look at what's around that your targeted species go after and find the lures that look like them. The eagle has landed. You should be hearing from Dan soon 🤙 Going to pull the plug soon and get a couple of reels from Piscifun. Cheers mon

[@patlsmith404]

Love the determination…”Never Give Up”.🎣💥❤️😎

[@gordonginn9229]

Good stuff man has to know failure as well as fortune

[@Lexington-n7z]

Now, Now Heiko... you put that life jacket on. 😆 Elliott!!!! "I'm calling PETA!" 😅🤣🤣

[@micheles4454]

You're way too funny. My husband and I have watched you for years. Love the catch and cook videos. I got my husband to watch And subscribe to to back in 2020 or 2019. We don't live in your area or state. But. Southeast Georgia. We have learned a few things from you. God bless keep up with everything you're doing. Maybe this will help you get your bad juju and can get a sailfish soon.

[@johnscheffel1157]

Dog snapper teardrop under the eye

[@BigpopaKN18761]

I learned that it would not be good for me to go paddle boarding and fishing at the same time, because I am very sure that I would end up in the water more times that I can count, especially trying to set the hook.

[@wegottafishdude]

🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 Awesome stuff dude

[@jean-yveslefebvre6446]

Hi, Heiko nice video better luck next time , Keep up the good work!

[@headshotalways]

Take couple beer next time

[@80884bpresley]

Awesome video man!!! See ya next time.

[@ThomasShue]

Should be called the Clumsy fisherman channel

[@joshuahartman1215]

Those trees whooped up on you this time lol

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

What artificial lure should I try using in my backyard for mangrove snapper next?!

[@CatsPajamas23]

Something bright pink! (Maybe a small version of the Sea witch?) You should bring Elliot with you! We love you Heiko, are glad you're doing better, and love your channel but please stop using our Saviour's name like a cuss word.)

[@jeremypeterson7384]

Vudu shrimp… the one that has the brown stripes and pearl blue

[@OntarioSecret]

The hornsbee 3

[@Krystal_Lynn]

I just grabbed like 20 1-dollar panfish lures from Walmart they are tiny and should work

[@toddwhite3217]

because everyone has had problems with FWC

[@danielhall898]

Happy to see Review Bruh make a guest appearance

[@youroutdoors5453]

Ok so you said something about nighttime snook fishing the mangroves.....ok so jonboat nighttime snook fishing in the mangroves sounds good, looking forward to watching that one.

[@eliasquintana4136]

Heyko you fishing videos are good

[@Quest7442]

Thank you for saying you didn't wash off the reel. I was curious about that

[@stevehogan8829]

Elephants eat peanuts. 12" Mangrove needs 1/2" chunk of fish, shrimp or fiddler.

[@EmoryullivanS-hv7vv]

Crystal River is my back yard. Fishing inshore what works for me is weighted jig and live shrimp. I never use the Gulp.

[@pamdimitrio4972]

Great catch finally

[@rea8755]

Someone found a paddleboard with a lifejacket tied down in Stuart on the Indian River. Days later a man's body was found.😢

[@nea273]

South Florida non-Fishing Channel... but is funny. 😂😂😂

[@chrishammer9891]

👍for the effort. Lets see some deep drop vids for some grouper

[@TheCravenIsReal]

Most legit and best click bait title ever!

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Heck yea! lolol

[@Anthony-pi6pf]

whoah man, you were about to say theres no regulations on the barracuda. They are regulated in FL state waters. its actually a SLOT 15-36 with 1 allowed over 36 per vessel

[@jddonahue2]

I can't believe I watched this vid for an hour.......must have been the suspense.

[@rockinace6]

Start using a 15-20 lb fluoro leader with an 1/8 oz jig head for artificial paddle tails. Darker water, darker colored baits, clear water, lighter baits. But you definitely need to use some type of leader like about 3 feet long.

[@COOPERSCICHILDS]

Awesome video

[@Krystal_Lynn]

I had to look to see how old the video was lol kind of thought you were posting when you were trying to learn how to fish

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Lol yea I wanted to put out some kinda throwback to the old days. Next time I’ll catch some fat ones 🤫

[@randyroth383]

Johnson sprite gold spoon 🎣👀 take the red flash off an throw away an take the 3 hook off an put a smaller one on red if you have one the same way as the other hook catch mangos all the time 🙋

[@emmanuelbrisker7588]

Hi asking can u do a flounder fishing video

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Planning on it!

[@lb7wade518]

We just like when you produce a video!

[@alanwheeler]

Another awesome video Heiko! Tight lines buddy and please wear the vest!

[@RickGarcia-b8i]

GUESS WHAT I FOUND ..Hey Hiko. I live in a neighborhood right next to Jhon Pennycamp. After watching this show I decided to go paddle boarding with some friends of mine and Guess what I found? The Other Shoe to the one you found 😮 😂😂😂😂😂

[@michaelross5674]

You caught a tree pounder lol😂😂😢

[@THX1130]

You’re right, clicked on the title because you said you were avoiding law-enforcement! How about gator chases Heiko on a paddleboard ??

[@GmanfromTexas]

On a paddle board? I never thought. Cook

[@kennethlaibson6506]

6 Hours and 4 Days Later Success It's Grunts, for Breakfast 🐠🐟

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I’ve never worked so hard for a grunt lol

[@TheFlahflah]

No, those guys are water gestappo.

[@ratkatbarnes5238]

You can always catch a bunch of fidlier crabs and cook them

[@BigpopaKN18761]

Yep put them in some boiling water why ol’bay seasoning and you could probably eat them whole the shell would be so soft you wouldn’t have to worry about that.

[@cr-lt1ld]

WE NEED FOR ELIOT MEMES ITS SO FUNNY

[@ShaggyDogg0128]

Need to keep soaking the shrimp after a couple of cast. Best thing to do is let it soak while you paddle to the next spot.

[@wahde4299]

ahhhhh forget it that shrimp... fish are to smart hahaha.. try a ajing softlure for everything..

[@robertstewart9202]

Well young fella, I have not read other comments, yet, but. I will. You have a KZbin channel watched by all age groups. First, I want to say I grew up in Miami, back in the 50s-70s. Things were a great deal more relaxed then. When my wife encouraged me to buy a boat, she made this statement. “Honey, I know you have been wanting a boat, but make me one promise. When you are out in the boat, please ‘promise’ you will always wear your PFD.” M’lady loves me, and that statement reinforced that love. I have forgotten only once, and only realized it while reeling in a big fish. I was horrified. I can swim, no problem, but living in the northern tier, the water gets very cold, and hypothermia is a real danger. I have been hypothermic in warm water as well. So look, you have kids watching, and flaunting the law intentionally sends a bad message to all who fish. What happens should you smack your upper brain assembly in a fall from your paddleboard and are KOed? C’mon, you are better than this! Losing your life on a humbug…is it worth it? Think of the pain and questions those who love you would be left with. What was the old car wreck commercial? “Most fatalities happen within five miles of home.” I would think there is a boating parallel. Do us all a favour, follow the rules, reinforce that by encouraging others to do the same. Okay, off my soapbox. Go catch some big ones!

[@perryducote3807]

Don’t forget the whistle

[@mcnasty6971]

Yo Heiko, I'm coming to the Keys Sept 24 - 30 this year. Flying in to Miami and driving to Key West. Would love to meet you in person. Let me know if you're available. I'll buy the beers.

[@lb7wade518]

How about a catch and cook a tree bass!!

[@kennyvelez8060]

Yes a bee does make a great bait, but the key is to not get stung and to not get thr fish stung,,, lol😂

[@chadkennedy723]

Nice

[@tellrich29]

I don’t think you know how to fish. 😂.what is your PB mangrove. Mangrove tree😂. Your video is very entertaining 👍

[@Swanny383]

You ever try hot dogs or chicken nuggets for bait ?

[@dickburrus4932]

Good job Heiko!! Grunts look like bluegill fillets, cooking looked really good 👍🏼

[@Johnfor3]

You have convinced to never fish from a paddle board!

[@jimf279]

Cheers

[@bobk.1428]

When you said you were going to “dip my shrimp in the juice” were you still talking about fishing??

[@arroyoriverrat]

Lights ... I think those guys needed training.

[@hookednrolling2009]

Artificial shrimp

[@TheFlahflah]

Lol. I don't really ever clickbait.....except when I do.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

😂 😝

[@scottmaccaferri]

Bring another bucket to sit on . stuff a PFD and a flashlight in there. Boom ,your legal.

[@stevehogan8829]

Yeah, but what if a Fish Eagle flew over and dropped an 8 lb tuna on your head and you went to pick it up for sushi and poked your eye out on your rod tip and were in such pain that you fell off the paddle board and then got hit by a shark and cdouldn't see and couldn't swim and then what would you do. IF you had a lifejacket then you could finish out y our life as a one legged pirate with a patch.

[@tonyhinson5029]

It is a dog snapper. Blue line and light tear drop under eye.

[@sappysiggy2351]

Hearing fish now? A Limpet?

[@lb7wade518]

That fish is called mangrove bush master

[@ThomasShue]

What city are you living in?

[@pantera5858ify]

If you are on any floating device you need all that stuff

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I don't when I'm surfing. And a paddleboard is a big surf board. So I don't get it..

[@karenann5220]

I wouldn’t want you to fall in. It’d terrify me! Joe would be cool with it. You need to reach out man! Glad after 4 days you caught something. Would have been funny though if you’d fallen in. Truth. 😂😂😂😂

[@bodiddley7404]

Pretty sure u were throwing back schoolmasters

[@Joshmango86]

You think a whistle is stupid until you trying to signal a boat from running ur ass over.

[@michaela4836]

Couscous a food so nice they named it twice 😂 Seth Rogen in Pineapple Express funny movie But great video👍 fresh food in your backyard and the perfect sunset Now that's life 🤙

[@ellenmorgan6923]

Boat must be down?

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Nope boat is running great! Been super busy so just did some paddle boarding the past few days. Solo trip on my boat coming out tomorrow!

[@ratkatbarnes5238]

Me? I would have cooked the shrimp, instead of using them for bait! Where im from, shrimp was breakfast, lunch and dinner- but that was in the late 60's. Sure do miss it!

[@pamdimitrio4972]

They are good to eat

[@TheInsultInvestor]

the cops lied "If you are operating in limited visibility or at night, you will also need a flashlight or lantern that produces a white light. It should be displayed to approaching vessels in enough time to prevent a collision. The light should not be continually displayed."

[@MTNmyMAG]

The white tear drop shape under the eye tells you it’s a Dog Snapper (not dog tooth snapper)

[@Goonsler]

I’m a newb to fishing and looking to connect and get some advice about fishing in Florida. Can someone help me out with just any fishing tips and basics ?

[@nealstrickland8642]

Hell I caught keeper mangroves on hot dogs

[@MrMathers444]

Save your money and wear a vest and get some Double AA battery operated led light and put on the board with velcro
