That mustache makes you look like Paul Skenes

[@huntfish_leo5778]

Dude, still need to know what glasses you wear.

[@codeherooutdoors]

Thank god my man is getting on the meat wagon. Can’t wait until you start getting in to multi species harvests. Been watching you since you were on the Jon boat and I’m rocking my old land skiff crew shirt as I type this. Cheers brother

[@KevinStogner-fd7tl]

How much fun has it been to watch you grow from a teen to a dad, shifting responsibilities and still finding time to fish. Your sons will become a shadow of their dad. They will eclipse your fishing prowess with that of their own. I will follow you and family for years to come.

[@comfortablynumb9342]

I hope you're right and his kids love fishin'

[@RABassin]

Dude I watch you more now then ever, no matter what anyone else says I love this style of vids! Turning into one of my favorite fishing film makers!

[@taranmehta6356]

Legend in the making ^^^^^^^

[@marks4445]

Tip a bit of frozen shrimp on that shrimp lure with heavier weight and toss at channel markers for tripple tail and Mangrove snapper.

[@jasonfulton77]

Anything fresh is great. Either raw or Pan fried is better than anything you get from the store.

[@nunearteaga53]

Awesome video bro The way I do my fish, any fish. Is on the grill. Wrapped in aluminum foil with all my favorite ingredients, sliced onions, sliced tomatoes. Sliced lemon, sliced garlic. Put it on top of the grill. Give it a turn. Bring it out and it’s ready to go in my ballet.

[@Reptiles_and_Roses]

Have been enjoying watching your videos for a while now, adding in my comment to show the support! Love the style, editing, and flow of your videos. Awesome shots, great narration, and a down to earth dude talking about fishing. I love it. Keep up the awesome work, can’t wait to see you enjoying more of your catches on the dinner table!

[@connorcoody3898]

Dude I love videos like this and your style of content combined with the catch clean and cook genre is so enjoyable to watch. Keep it up man, you're an inspiration to me!

[@CGLFishing]

Your videos have been the inspiration for what i am trying to do on my channel! This last year family responsibilities kept me from making as many as I wanted but planning for next year!

[@hookcraft_fishing]

Perfect timing! Just got some sheep yesterday and was trying to decide how to cook them. Gonna try this sandwich! Great vid man!🤙🏼

[@stevehogan8829]

You are doing a good job wit the vids and relating to your audience. Thanks for taking us along.

[@Eric.Estrada]

Let me help you. You are one of the best (if not the best) story tellers in this fishing youtube scene. Let me help you make small adjustments to your videos to level them up. As a fan of your channel, I am not trying to criticize. I see where minor changes can make a huge difference.

[@johnbigboote7954]

Good on ya. I dig your videos.

[@KevinStogner-fd7tl]

As much as you fish, you should invest in a ice machine for the garage. 20 # min a trip? Fish for the table, Flounder, then Trout, then Reds. Don't have the inshore snapper here. Triple-Tail is lucky lurking a channel buoy.

[@stevehogan8829]

I've switched to using coconut oil for frying and good health. I use avocado mayo now to make tarter sauce.

[@chavez1731]

I really liked the theme of the video! Make more, please! A big hug from a fan here in Brazil. In twenty years of fishing I have never killed a Centropomus undecimalis, which is my true passion. But I liked and understand your approach of bringing quality food to the family and respecting legal limits.

[@zachdivarco3185]

Great video! I think you would enjoy Landshark outdoors channel for some catch and cook inspiration

[@colintillman425]

Awesome video Lawson!been around for awhile and I love the new leafs we’ve been able to watch you turn through these. Much love from Tn brother!

[@mattholt3585]

Hey brother I know you don’t want to hear this, but two words. Live bait. Guaranteed to fill your box. Tight lines. Great video production. Fish on-

[@cawbaird5711]

Smoked mullet this time of the year is a go-to

[@Kevincastalot]

Great video !!!! you should try some live shrimp in the groves for some snappers or some docks and cook it up for the family and friends !!!!! i love arti for the speed of catching fish it saves time but live shrimp brings dinner home every time lol

[@Fishingwithkayson23]

Keep up the great work on your videos. I’m pretty sure I have watched everyone you’ve made in the past two years.

[@kevinjustkevin7627]

Stopped keeping trout of the Indian River (when season is open). Too many worms. I did get nice Mangrove snapper at the inlet last Tuesday. Live shrimp from Bucktails bait just north of that boat ramp(FYI). Everything eats shrimp. Great video as always

[@louv2425]

Buddy fisherman & chef wow. Love the change. Kids are growing fast. Blessings 🙏.,..

[@danieldolph5297]

Just cant understand why this kid only has 183k subs not that its not alot but seems like he should have so much more ive been watching him for years now and hes jjst so underrated hes knowledgeable imformative and just a well rounded angler so hopefully now hes going to catch n cooks maybe that will raise his subs thanks for the years of videos Lawson keepem coming buddy

[@coryschewe1627]

Always think that to myself how is this dude not more popular

[@juniormack4788]

I agree

[@AndreasChristouSaltwater]

Only 183k?! 😂 bro that’s so many people. Imagine that many people in one place at once

[@danieldolph5297]

Andreas apparently u didn't read the comment I'm not saying it's not a lot I'm saying he should have so many more for how long he's been doing this I wasn't downplaying how many he had in my opinion he's one of the best anger KZbinrs out there

[@AndreasChristouSaltwater]

@ I was just poking fun at you because you said “only” 183k. I understand what you were trying to say I was just joking around 😂

[@AndyBallona]

So much for no sponsors! ;) Cool video, enjoying the new dad vibes.

[@randomjackson574]

I primarily catch and release, BUT always bring ice just in case, you never know when you are going to get a slot red or snook or some bonus catch like when i found pompano last spring. I do enjoy the days when i go "grocery shopping", but thats typically if i bring out someone who is not a seasoned angler, and we go hit the trees and docks for mangoes and sheepies.

[@ThePhilDEEZ]

Thats my boat ramp! killing it!

[@treymorrow8525]

Go dock light fishing. Reds like to hangout in the lights. Also the video would do well

[@Velcrostraps91]

Paused at the sheep point. Bro I been watching you since the beginning. Your the fkn man. I was impressed when you hooked that thing on that shrimp lure. I just recently started fishing for keeps as well. Definitely keep some dead shrimp with you and a Carolina rig set up. Tight vid LOST SUN 😎👌🏼

[@stevehogan8829]

Ah, so now you are truly a sportsman and a true fisherman. Welcome to the club. J/K Been fishing for food since 1950's. I eat what it makes sense to eat and what I need, Release too small, too large or what I don't need, BTW. Lots of good fish out there, What sportsmen catch is not a valid concern for the fish population. Commercial fishing and solution are the issues, YUM

[@he_91n56]

I watch your videos for a few years now and I'm actually glad, that you quit pure Catch&Release fishing.👍🏻 Eating fresh fish, which you caught yourself is the best thing ever. Here in Germany🇩🇪 Catch&Release is actually illegal, because catching fish just for sport and harming them with no reason is seen as animal cruelty. I normally eat about 50% of the fish that I catch. The other half is always flopping back into the water.😉😅

[@jariol]

Maybe no double dip in the flour. Just flour egg then panko. Cook in extra virgin olive oil to reduce fat. Otherwise thanks

[@snizookslizayer5379]

the bigger trout in the winter will move up shallow in 1.5 to 3 feet. look for mullet schools. particularly on sunny days.

[@jacob9077]

That sheep’s head was beautiful man it’s tail was like see thru🔥

[@SledorFish]

Might have to try that bun recipe myself. Always up for cutting out the junk in store bought bread or anything else.

[@bryanrudy2378]

Your cooking skills have greatly improved. Signed....A Chef from Charleston, SC. But was wondering why you didn't keep the Ladyfish to use as cut bait?

[@davidgoldsen8504]

Give those chickens a small treat of crab and fish . Small enough not to attract flies .

[@danieljohnson5088]

Lawson, if you catch some slot sea trout, you’ve got to blacken them. It’s to die for🤌

[@ray8535]

Careful with that red tide now. We've been getting some readings of findings in swfl for the last few days.

[@futureMSCI]

You gotta try making a sourdough culture! We love making sourdough bread and you can make tons of stuff with the discard

[@Westin_J27]

No way! Another Lawson video so soon! Its a good day🎉

[@The_wadefisher_89]

Noticed you’ve been fishing my hometown area. I got a few spots and tips that may help

[@Fishnbret]

Hey man we met at the fish house Ik you probably get this a lot but I grew up on these islands and I work on the vip island if you ever want a day to just learn the water better and just have some good fun fishing give me a holler I’ll make sure I get you hooked up

[@bigfishlilfish2]

Redfish has been my go to lately 💪

[@SushiS1oth]

Love that area, between the islands always has the trout

[@paulcole5435]

There’s a couple places in the world (pretty sure Mozambique is one) where they get Ladyfish to 20+ pounds.

[@jeffrogala9038]

my advice, live shrimp, dead shrimp, frozen shrimp. have at least 1 if you want to bring fish home.

[@madmax3588]

Over here in Australia we have a similar fish called a breamand we have major compitipns and use 2in curly tail grubs and little divers and vibes you should check out the comps over here

[@DisneyMagicandMayhem]

Keep up the great work Lawson 👍 Awesome Video.

[@hummbledone7427]

Good video appreciate the recipe, will be sure to try it.

[@tboneking5]

Just fish with live bait if you’re trying to harvest fish effectively. It’s not lame and it does require skill to do consistently.

[@get-hooked-tackle941]

Sooner or later, them steak prices will have you appreciate quality + free effort exchanging meal .

[@johnbigboote7954]

Eating what you catch will probably push you to catch "better" fish. Jacks, catfish, and ladyfish for meals will be a great motivator. 🙂

[@TeamPerry5]

First glimps of Cam-Dawg!!!!!! 😭😭😭

[@yungtree1082]

All the invasive fish we have are very tasty :D Snakehead being the best

[@justinpootin4021]

I caught two sheepshead on gulp swimming mullet this year

[@ryrorobers2563]

How do you like the salt x? Im the debating the AT when it comes out in december. Thanks

[@marksmanmatthew6322]

I personally would love to see Lawsons arc to a croaker soakin box fillin pos like me 😂

[@Moffit366]

Challenging yourself is essential, feeding your family is more important than.

[@jayjohnson9668]

Bro invest in a good ice machine. It will save you thousands of $$$$$$ in the long run! I learned this lesson many yrs ago and it was such a great investment! It also comes in very handy in your daily use. I will never have a house without at least 2 ice makers in it. Its invaluable once you get one (or more). Cant ever live without them now!😎🤟💪😮

[@kyletaylor1986]

Lawson please trust me. Chasebaits Crabs. Sheepshead annihilate them! No need to fish live bait

[@tjm12995]

yooo lawson what are those absolutely fire shades your wearing?

[@avi_s0ncin0]

At 2:00 Lawson basically said that he’s not good as catching small fish 😂

[@TeamPerry5]

Let’s go fishing together!!!!!

[@JCInshore]

My Dawg, really? Christmas tree already? Otherwise love the videos man. Keep em coming.

[@BUBBY7Z7Z7]

2:18 perfect representation of Florida nowadays!

[@jayjohnson9668]

Yo Lawson just wondering if you have ever fished a Savage Gear BattleTek rod before? It is the ultimate ultra lite saltwater rod paired with a nice 3000-4000 Shimano reel. That is my fav combo for light saltwater fishing. Its great for trout reds snook ladyfish etc… just asking my guy!😎

[@roncitofishingteam2377]

Bucket of live shrimp and a bridge will provide you with fish

[@cawbaird5711]

Start throwing a mullet net and never go hungry

[@zachsnyder6525]

Any thought on upsizing that shrimp lure?

[@thegrouperking]

There are three things you need to make sure that you fill the box and those three things are Pilchards pilchards and more pilchards

[@SkK-vx9xd]

Lawsons on his winter arc

[@gareth7230]

big dog i gotta ask, where did you get those sun glasses?

[@brandontaylor3023]

@ LawsonLindseyFishing what is your camera setup?

[@chuckem]

yea right!

[@bretburt7317]

Since you are new to keeping fish, look into "brain and bleed". IMO it definitely makes a difference in the overall quality.

[@blueaggie64]

Looks great, but literally, nobody is going to spend an hour and a half to make a sandwich

[@Cheeto316]

What blue and black spinning rod is that?

[@RUF33OH]

This is not true about all the trout being the same size. Many many times, you have to weed thru the small, more active ones to get through to the bigger trout.

[@stevemcsnook]

Dude if you wanna harvest some fish HMU, I'll get you on tons of fish in Alaska!

[@karlneumann6833]

Fillet and release

[@johnshare4204]

Yo Lawson how are you man

[@LawsonLindseyFishing]

I am doing good, how are you John 🤘🏻

[@Westin_J27]

Try and get some Pompano to bake

[@pqtpat7734]

Is sea trout a good eater? Not from fl but caught em

[@kirkdavis2881]

I am not a farmer or particularly handy, so providing fresh fish for friends and family brings me a sense of satisfaction. You should also try some of the less desireables like blowfish or even sailcats which are quite good.

[@joshvignolini1]

why dont you ever throw those lady fish out whole for mondo snook?

[@Matteffinawesome]

Trout and mackerel are the way to go in my opinion. Fried, grilled, or smoked all good ideas.

[@noblestsavage1742]

agreed, the two commonest edible fish where i live too.

[@tristenjones1185]

Love this style of video man. As a brand new dad (shes 6m) , alot of what your saying hits home. Have been a long time watcher, love the content progression.

[@argerenon610153]

Ive been doing this as well this past year, i was always catch and release. But i would recommend cooking the whole fish when possible, and compost the scraps dont throw them away, it feels more sustainable all in all. Remove big fins, gills and guts, season and stuff the stomach with herbs and lemons/oranges and butter, and oven bake or pan fry, definitely get alot more meat in the end hand picking through it as well, its not as convenient but feels right.

[@argerenon610153]

The cheek meat goes crazy now, on all fish

[@alexanderren1097]

Whack em & stack em!

[@Bourger]

I was gonna be negative about this way of thinking but I will probably never understand unless I have children (The whole giving up on trophy hunting/catch and release, eat your limit idc)

[@YuriPicanco]

I used to think like that too. But if you stop to think about it. Its actually more cruel from an animal rights perspective to catch and release than catch and keep it. In the first your only goal is to play with the fish while getting it incredibly stressed while in the second you actually have a reasonable reason to catch it.

[@Bourger]

@yuripicanco yes there is a good argument to make about fishing being cruel in general

[@PatrickInCayman]

Very curious about your stance on abortion however

[@Bourger]

@@PatrickInCayman I was mainly saying what I said about the whole giving up on trophy hunting thing, idc if you eat your limit every single day

[@bretburt7317]

Welcome to the dark side brother.

[@Teachkwright]

#teamstokecoffee who has time to brew coffee!?! lol

[@Mbtharp1]

Can relate to this big time. Used to bass fish a lot and catch and release. Now that I have kids I’ve started crappie and walleye fishing almost entirely, and hunting. It’s hard to justify that time away unless you’re bringing something home.

[@cawbaird5711]

Pompano. Sheepshead.

[@MarkMagnuson]

Oof

[@saneadam3512]

that was fun! Perfect ending, a great meal shared with family.

[@firejosh181]

I watched this entire video with my 3 year old son sitting on my lap. When the video was done he said "I want to watch another one, daddy!" Keep killin it bro. From my family to yours, we appreciate you!

[@fishonfish3821]

Get out my river
