How to Catch FISH on the Key Largo PATCH REEFS | Catch N Cook

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

The REAL secret to catching fish is to use SFFC rigs: southfloridafishingchannel.com I bless every rig sent out by yelling 'FISH ON' at the top of my lungs as they are packaged... True Story

[@kxry4679]

South Florida Fishing Channel moving to Fort Lauderdale next week, I’ll have a reason to purchase a few now💪🏼

[@g-townfishing6167]

South Florida Fishing Channel Hey Heiko, I sent you a DM on insta about a 225 Merc. Check it out when you can.

[@georgekarpathios9253]

I love your enthusiasm while fishing when you catch a fish. I'm the same.. I have a smaller boat than you (16' Boston whaler CC). I think I'll be coming to Key Largo this season with it and try some patch reef fishing. Our place is in Naples and it's tough fishing here. Had an offshore 24', but sold it a couple of years ago. Trying more inshore fishing, but once I saw the patches and what you're catching there,.I'm excited. Disadvantage is the almost 3 hour drive. But I'm looking forward to it. Hope I run into you on the water and say hello one day. Great videos. George

[@AlexGarcia-ni2wy]

PLEASE do more of these. Showing where to go on the gps and stuff. I’m trying to learn what to do with my first boat recently purchased

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Can't go wrong fishing the patch reefs here =) Good luck with the new boat! my engine just blew lol

[@shotdoctor]

R.I.P motor. She has gone to the long troll out in the vast blue. Free from the the burden of maintenance, and the risk of over-revving. Her contribution to the channel will not be forgot. She will be sorely missed. At least till Heiko finds a replacement. lol

[@dsexton5]

Man, no matter how bad of a day I may have had watching your videos ALWAYS cheers me up. I can only wish one day for me and my daughter to fish with you. Keep up the great work.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I'm sure one day we will! Thanks for all the support =)

[@kennethhotard2952]

I tell ya my friend, when ever I am a bit down, all i have to do is watch one of your videos bud and i find myself laughing!! Love it man!! Keep up the over the top work!! You guyz are great, THANKS. SEMPER FI!!

Been doing that drunk catch and cook fish myself for years! You get home starving and drink and you got great fresh meat. Pasta and veggies will come out next meal. Cheers!

I would look at the suzuki 200s. Work great in my boat. You’re lucky enough to have international marine and outboard specialties in Florida. Best prices in the country.

Nice catch Heiko keep up the good work!

[@joeshmo3029]

Just a quick cooking tip. I come from a family that owns a fleet of fishing boats and several seafood restaurants. Lightly toss the fish cubes in yellow mustard first. Them, dust them in pancake mix immediately before you fry them. Use .5 inches to .75 inches of oil in the pan. Do not put too much in at one time. KEEP THE OIL HOT. This work for all pink or white flaky fish. This recipe has made a lot of money. Try it. Let me know what you think.

[@whitesnook]

Thanks for an awesome fishing shows! I used to have key largo 186 myself.... Great no frills boat. Sorry to hear your motor ... Get a Suzuki!

[@cadilacslim]

I lived 10 years on Bahamas island Eleuthera, 200 miles east of you, water was one mile deep just one mile offshore, did all kinds of fishing, spear, night fishing on reefs, trolling, deep water, but fish would not bite during daytime on dead bait, and at night fish would only bite on incoming tide with no moon.

[@jmvmike]

I’m sorry the engine crapped out on you. Keep up the great videos

[@TexasJungle]

Yeah boyeeee!! Looks like a killer time! I’m editing now but after seeing this I’m going out to Texas Jungle!!

[@markcrume]

Angel Hair is a very short cook. IMO, skip the tomato sauce, to heavy for angel hair. Try EVOO, diced fresh tomato with minced garlic and Italian Herbs.Toss in the Angel Hair and top with your fish chunks with panko and parmesan. Yum!... What, no Glock to crack stone crab claws? Capt Elliot is one lucky cat, looks very healthy and happy, seems like a "Kool Kat". Kaitlyn is an angel. Thanks for the adventure. Heiko, I always love them.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I'll have to try that next time I make angel hair. Thanks!

[@martyhicks5593]

Great vid good info love the energy bro 😎

[@Lees920]

Are you still looking for a motor? How about a 150 Yamaha?

[@TheCriminalViolin]

Too much noodles, not enough water. That's where the problem is, which is why the noodles in the middle are all clumped up together. Starch Monsters can be rough to cook when cooking other things, or distracted since again, they're loaded with starch, making them both incredibly sticky when overcooked, and easy to burn as well. Simple things can sometimes quickly become some of the most difficult haha. The fish looks stellar as always. Also, did you just update your boat, and repair that engine? Seems like you spent two weeks on it and you documented a bit of it on your instagram page.

[@jayvanhouwe2132]

Great vid as usually.I would have kept eel and cooked it if it was legal and in season.

[@l7rovato248]

hey! im new into fishing and i was wondering if you could help me out with open sea spots in fort lauderdale because all the times we tried the waves made it imposible

Here comes the 4stroke and never look back fuel bill cut in half. Suzuki 200 or Yamaha 200 can't go wrong. Or a new dusky 252t would be sweet

Prop Wash and you accidentally poke yourself trying to clean a 2lb fish and you’re in the worst pain of your life, experiencing intense swelling, probable hospital visit and depending on your allergies, death. Not even remotely close to worth enough meat for barely one meal lol.

Oh no! Sorry about your motor. Although It was a juicy day on the water and I am jealous. It looked so nice and clear. What the heck is the water temperature this time of year for you to jump in like that? Cheers

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

It's not cold at all on the patch reefs right now. Plus the sun was shining so it was nice. The water was probably low 80s

I figured it wasn't too cold but low 80's!? Sounds perfect. Looked so inviting. Good luck on the motor hunt. Dig DEEEEP in those pockets man and treat yourself to a new Susuki and be done.lol

Guys when fishing the patches you need to stay away from casting onto the reef patches, youre always going to lose your fish, You guys literally anchored right on top of the reef.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I jumped in and swam around. Anchor was in a sand patch. They are all over. My anchor grips best in sand anyways, it's the plow

[@mannyrodriguez5453]

@@SouthFloridaFishingChannel I know that it good be a bit difficult to anchor on sand but try to saty away from having to cast on top of the reef patches, and look for a spot where there' more sand and the shum will lure in the fish closer to you. I fished all those patches, my parents used to have a home in tavernier back in the late 60's until they sold in 1985, when we wanted to fish the patches we looked for more depth in the 40's feet, you can find larger fish, try fishing before sunrise and one hour befor sun set, you will be a happy camper, I've been seeing your videos and i've been itching to fish the area again. have you tried fishing in the winter the surroundings of Rodriguez Key and i can't recall the other key thats north of it, Muttons are always in the shallows surrounding the small islands especially in the winter but you need to fish it early morning with no wind. Good luck.
