Honestly watching you catch that cobia was amazing. You can tell you're such a good dude and your content is the best fishing content on YT.

[@gamergods2889]

It’s just the facts

[@BamaSaltwater]

I appreciate that for sure !

[@thecedarridgechronicles]

Agreed

[@drbravestone4017]

He also only keeps what he and his family are going to eat! If more fishermen can have this mindset, there will always be plenty for everyone.

[@funyunmaker3182]

That is a nice cobia I agree that is one of the best eating fish out there.

[@iktn132]

The amount I’ve learned about saltwater fishing from you is.. insane

[@BamaSaltwater]

That's so awesome to hear. I'm glad I can share my experiences!

[@livelifetogivelife9462]

Bro! Perfect king and more perfect cobia!!!! I was SO worried about him dragging you back to that chain… I was yelling at you “MAN, GET HIM AWAY FROM THE SHIP!!!” Thank God for the level of success you had on this morning! Very nice

[@Rooster_Snuffer]

That big one looks like a cross between a walleye, a catfish and shark. Gorgeous fish, all of them. Bro you are a very fortunate man to be able to do what you do. Thank you for sharing this video with us. It was nice watching a video with ZERO cussing! Thank you for the ‘G’ rated content. I’m in Colorado and I am just getting back into fishing after a couple years off(been busy getting married having kids and then getting divorced) so I have been needing to get out and enjoy Gods beautiful creations and let nature help me heal. I wish I could go with you on a fishing adventure like that. You the man!

[@Fulcrum205]

Cobia are an evolutionary oddball. There aren't any other species in their family. The closest thing they are related to is remoras

[@CaptCollier]

Congrats on that nice cobia man. Way to tough it out and get it done despite the weather. This raining and storms everyday is getting old!

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks man! For real

[@Goated_23]

@@BamaSaltwater amazing cobia

[@flytech78]

My kids and i just love watching your channel and they love fishing and eating fish…also thanx for serving in the armed services…

[@mailmusic]

You always have great content but you out did yourself with this one. The best ones yet. Thanks for all the ways to tie up for these fish. I have been wanting to go to the ships but I have never seen any wire tie techniques before. Keep up the great work!!!!

[@josephmurray4866]

He is wearing you out!

[@isopod1490]

Honestly this is the best fishing channel out there! Love how you always include little tips and tricks and 'how to' methods. Helps some not-so seasoned fishers like myself!

[@patcheek7669]

Stephen, you are such a great fisherman, we love your videos. Speaking as a mother of sons, I think you learned everything you know from your Mom..keep the content coming. Love the area and Mobile Bay.

[@bobk.1428]

One of your best videos yet! Keep kickin KZbins butt!

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thank you man!

[@TheCassiusking]

The excitement ins ur voice is awesome

[@embracethefarm7191]

Thoroughly entertained with this post...and so happy for you regarding your cobia catch! Your joy and passion for what you do is inspiring.

[@piotrprushamski]

I recently found this channel, and I'm so happy I did it. The passion and fun present in each video are amazing. It is remarkable the way you respect the fish! Keep making your channel an educative and fun experience; thank you for sharing!

[@Andrew-cu2ku]

Love the videos man. Wish I could get out on the water more often. Maybe one day.

[@aaronroyalty9779]

First and foremost, thank you for your service! We love watching your videos. We love how informative you are, what you are using for tackle, how you tie your rigs up. You are a great teacher. Beautiful catch! Congratulations!

[@austinbeuttler4510]

I gotta tell ya, that's cool man! I don't see too many fishing videos where the weather is garbage. It kind of sets the adventurers mood. Really fun to watch! I appreciated it when you stopped fishing because you already caught enough to feed your family. You're a good man. I always only take what I need.

[@pered406]

My family and I look forward to your videos every time. One weekend we binged watched every single one of them. 😆 We thoroughly enjoy the content, humbleness, great positive attitude, and respect for your craft. Thank you for giving a glimpse of what you enjoy doing.

[@BamaSaltwater]

That's awesome! I'm glad I can share my experiences on the water with ya'll!! Appreciate the support

[@glenngriffin1784]

The best Gulf and inshore fishing videos on KZbin right now. Perfect production and very interesting content as well as educational. I love catching and eating Cobia in Bama. Great job dude!

[@thomaslambert3161]

Mate I love your vids so much. Especially this one. Had everything! Great content, amazing cook and clean, with a guy who loves life. Honestly mate its infectious! Keep em coming. Much love

[@tomnorman2668]

Great day along with an awesome video!!! Thanks!!!!

[@dasavage]

Great job on that Cobia. Waiting for your charter to start.

[@racquet1111]

Over the past month I've been dreaming/planning/hoping for a day just like this one and so glad you shared it with us! I have a 23' center console and appreciate you sharing so many tips. Sharing the gear you use and the knots and everything else has been extremely useful and the fact you go offshore on your boat alone means that I can do it, too, with proper preparation and training and just taking it one step at a time. Thank You from a grateful subscriber who kept watching you because of the way you end each video... grateful to our creator for this wonderful inheritance!!

[@BamaSaltwater]

Yes! No need to be intimidated by the salt, just respect nature/weather, and always be prepared for the "worst case scenario". Good luck, Tight Lines, and God Bless.

You’re an amazing teacher and even tho I don’t fish the oceans and bays very much I still take some the things u do to the lakes

[@user-vs3nt8ch2q]

Huge fan of seeing you show so many different techniques used in the area and sharing in depth knowledge. Great work, hoping to end up in the northern gulf doing the same in my spare time..

Yes sir great video as always brother

[@harlydynamike49]

I love this guy; he brings back so many memories. He has so many tips for novices and us old guys. One thing I learned back in the early 70’s if you take a charter or friends you better use a stinger rig especially on Kings and Wahoo or you will come home and go to bed hungry. Thanks for keeping the sport going with class.

[@lmpbzkt1]

Right on bud! Sick catch!!!
