Fishing for Bass in Black Bean Sauce (it's low carb, great for weight loss)

Four years ago I made fish in black bean sauce. Now, I’m craving it again. I picked up all I need at the Asian market except the fish! Let’s shop for some at our open air fish market. Click on SHOW MORE for info on the tackle, lake, recipes and more.

THE LAKE is called Lake Ketchabigwon (named by native Americans). It is almost 6 acres and is located in NE Ohio. It sits on 37 acres of property. The lake is private. We purchased it in 1987. It has a maximum depth of 12’. The small pond uphill from it is ¾ acre with a maximum depth of 12’.
FISH IN THE LAKE: largemouth bass, bluegill, white crappie, black crappie, yellow perch, channel catfish, and grass carp
WHY KEEP SMALL BASS AND RETURN LARGER BASS: We had biologists perform an electroshock survey of the lake. They found too many small, stunted bass. There is only so much biomass to go around, and there are too many mouths to feed. Their advice was to remove all bass under 12”, and to release the bigger ones. This rule is usually the opposite in large public lakes. Here is a well-known biologist explaining the need to cull small bass from ponds (21:00) • Facebook Live 1 31 18 ... .

My wife and I miss this so much. I hope you come back. She says you give out a warm happy feeling.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi FB! I have to say that I'm probably finished making videos. Even a short one would thrust me back in a loop of social media obligations like watching and commenting on dozens of other KZbinrs, all of whom are very nice, good people. But doing that had become a full time job. I hope you understand. Thanks again for following Ms. Lulu and me over all the years, and for missing us. We miss you too!

[@anthonyholmesoutdoors1837]

The ole open air fish market came through once more. It makes me want to go shopping... Until I saw the ice on your line. My chair is warm and comfortable. I was expecting that Massive bass that lurks by the lily pads to make an appearance, maybe spring. Yes, I did notice the knife flip. Be sure to tell Miss Lulu we say "hi" but don't be too assertive about it. lol

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Anthony! It's getting more difficult to catch fish, the colder it gets out there. But luckily, I had enough for dinner. After 4 hours outside, it started to feel miserable. There was no sign of the monster bass I was hoping for. After hearing Ms. Lulu's take on the "Johnny and Dora Story," I'll watch my Ps and Qs with her. I don't want to be too assertive lest I'm the one taking shelter under the bed! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@enduringpatriot]

It is always a pleasure to visit your "Open Air Fish Market", John! It amazes me though, how many of us can get into that boat of yours at the same time to go with you! You may have been cold, but we weren't (I guess we were sitting on the sunny side of the boat). I must say, after chasing Miss LuLu since 1966, you would think she had softened and warmed up a little more to your "long=term" advances. Nevertheless, after she verbally responds to you, she always gives you a hug... what a tease, just enough to make you invite her back for another visit and meal. Maybe she's just hanging around for the free cuisine???

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Tommy! Hahaha, once again I used the Open Air Fish Market to secure fish for this Chinese dinner. I sometimes get over 3,000 of us a week into my little boat, and that's fine with me as long as everyone is smiling and keeping warm. 😊 You would think that Ms. Lulu would be a bit more affectionate to me after all these years, huh? Well, maybe I just need the right strategy to bring out her tenderness. I have high hopes for next week! LOL! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@lemoncrinckles]

Brrr...I was shivering with you out in the boat. I almost expected the bait to bounce off a layer of ice. But you did really good! ( Did I catch a glimpse of roe? Fried in butter, it's yummy.) Those are some healthy looking fillets. I love Chinese five spice powder; just used it in my most recent batch of cookies. You've made many wonderful dishes, and this one is no exception. It's beautiful to look at and must have been delicious!! Hope you didn't get buried when the two most recent snow storms came through. As always, thank you for sharing you're visual and narrational (is that even a word??) gifts with us! (:

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Stef! It was cold out there! The first couple of hours are not a problem, but by the fourth hour, the cold penetrates to the bone. • Yes! That was roe. I should have kept it. You were the one to make me aware that it's delicious when breaded and fried. • We have a Chinese restaurant nearby where I first tried this dish. I was so impressed that I searched until I finally found this recipe. It turned out just like the dish in that restaurant. • We had about 5 inches both at our weekday house and at the getaway at the lake. I'll bet you got more! You're in a real snow belt! • "Narrational" looks scholarly to me. I like it! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my dear friend! We hope that you're feeling well. All the best to you!

[@lemoncrinckles]

Juanelo1946 😀Have a great week, John! Tell Miss Lulu ( and her students) to give that 5-spice powder a try in snickerdoodles, or oatmeal cookies or on pork or chicken. probably even beef. Yum! Good night. 😊

[@Juanelo1946]

Mmm!! Snickerdoodles! Oatmeal cookies! Pork! Thank you for the super suggestions! I noticed how gingery, anisey and lively the spice was, but I didn't realize all the uses! I'll pass on the good news to the gang! 😊 Thanks so much! Goodnight, and see you soon!

[@Muddog-md7ob]

From the moment I finished watching last week’s video until now, I’ve watched most of your videos, and they keep getting better. Trust me Juanelo even though you’ve said you’re not a world famous chef, the precise action and passion you have for all your dishes is worthwhile, and it means so much more. I hope be half the gentleman you are, keep up the great work mi amigo🤙🏼😃

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Foley! Oh man, I assure you, you're too kind! As for the recipes, I just follow the directions, and I'd be lost without directions. All of them are plagiarized. 😁 Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness mi amigo! We wish you and yours all the best!

[@jaywellington6504]

ROFL!!!! Ms. Lulu you are the funniest, most charming gal on the internet! Thank you Juanelo for bring so much entertainment into our home on a weekly basis. God Bless you. 💜💜💜

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi jay! Ms. Lulu hits me yet again with yet another zinger! Aww, you're very kind to say that! She is flattered and is blushing now. Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend! All the best to you and yours from the both of us!

[@johnnyringo3171]

There's nothing quite like catching fish when ice is forming on your line and in the guides on your rod - it makes it all worthwhile! And I tell you, I could smell that delicious dish cooking. Definitely another one I'll be adding to my list!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Johnny! It was a challenge to stay out there for hours in the cold, especially when trying to cast with ice clinging to the line and the guides! Ugh! But I caught a few! And the recipe turned out delicious. So all is well that ends well. You would love this Chinese dish! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

I just wanted to stop by and say hello to my old friend. I'm glad to see your channel is doing well.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Kris! It's great to see you again! I'm still using your little bluegill lures with good success! We finally finished off all your Hatch chile peppers yesterday! 😜 Thanks so much for looking in on us and for all your kindness my friend! We wish you and the family all the best!

[@clinodev]

A tasty little add-on nibble isn't cheating at all! It's even more sporting, really, since they _could_ make off with a treat instead of just getting a bite of nasty plastic! Thanks as always, Juanelo!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Clinodev! Maybe the little mealworm was the difference between success and failure. Yes, it was a sporting event, because often the fish in fact did make off with the worm without getting hooked. Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@ratdog3055]

Cant say your are not a dedicated fisherman! Great recipe too. As for me, I'm the boss of my house and I have my wife's permission to say so!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Ratdog! It's often very uncomfortable out there in the boat when it's freezing, but I keep telling myself, the show must go on! I like your line! Hahahaha! I might use that joke someday! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@Ilovebigbassandicannotlie]

I really miss the videos buddy me and my mom loved watching them and learning how to cook (low carb)thanks so much for the bonding experience

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Elijah! Awww thanks for missing our videos! By doing these shows, I learned a lot about cooking low carb too, just like your mom! Thanks a million for watching and especially for the kind words my friend!

Hello Juanelo Fantastic Great Fishing 🐟🎣Video and Food Look So Delicious Thank You for Sharing Take Care My Friend👍 From Cold Monday Morning in Scotland

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Scott in Scotland! It's always very nice to see you. Keep warm, winter is coming! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@SmokeyGoodness]

I watched this at the kitchen table on my new phone as Mrs. SG was busy preparing something in the kitchen. When you said "5 Spice", she walked over to check out the remainder of the video. You have a new fan, John (and we might be making something very similar soon... The fish will have to be store bought, of course)! 😎

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Dan! Five-spice might be the key to getting new subscribers, huh? 😁 I ordered fish in black bean sauce in a local Chinese restaurant some years ago and loved it. I tracked down the recipe for it, and now we can enjoy it at home. I hope you try it. It works great with store-bought tilapia! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend! Say hi to your wife for us!

[@robber1988]

This is the 1st video i watch from you....I'm hooked just from the intro

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi R B! I've retired from making KZbin videos, but I left hundreds of them behind. They cover several years. Thank you for watching, and thank you especially for leaving the good words!

[@CookingwithRick]

Hi John, your fish in black bean sauce looks so delicious and your cauliflower rice looked spicy and delicious. John you and Jean got together the year I was born great couple congratulations on 53 yrs you must be doing something right.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Rick! I ordered fish in black bean sauce in a local Chinese restaurant and loved it. I tracked down the recipe for it, and now we can enjoy it at home! Wow, we're old! That was the year we met, and the year you were born! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@afdb6924]

And again the food looks delicious again, I have not had time to try one of the recipes last week .. but tonight grandpa (me) will be cooking and I am now looking for a nice recipe among all the nice videos ... friend thanks again for the nice video, mrs. Lulu thank you you always make me laugh, I hope to be able to enjoy you for years to come, with kind regards from The Hague, André

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi grandpa afdb! I hope you try one of my recipes. I can assure you that they're all tasty because I stole them all from from good sites. 😁 I don't know if I can continue making videos for much longer, because this is like a full-time job. But I have years of videos to help you fall asleep in my archives! 😊 Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@kimholmes5673]

That looked so good. I noticed the fish flip for Anthony. Lol I love Miss LuLu. She always makes me laugh so hard. God bless y’all.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Kim! Hahaha! I've got to include the fish flip now in every show! Ms. Lulu is a riot! She has a completely different take on all my marriage notions! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@Hoggy1963]

Ha ha ha, open air fish market. Good stuff, as usual. Beetle spin suggests on the pack just what you did, adding a meal worm.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi DMG! You can't get fresher fish than from my open air fish market, although on some days, the pickings are slim. 😊 I didn't realize that Beetle Spin gave that advice on the back of the package! Thanks for pointing that out to me! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@charlescarlson8283]

I do some fishing late in the year. Bring a thermos of warm water to pore on the line to get the ice off. Works great even on musky line.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Charles! That's a great tip! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for the very good suggestion my friend!

[@mikecha1957]

The fish with black bean sauce looked exceptional John. I still can't quite get my head around the cauliflower rice thing, I tried it Good job buddy keep at Miss LuLu she is bound to give in sooner or later 😍

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Mike! If I cook that cauliflower rice in butter like this and make sure it's soft, it really does start tasting like rice! But, yeah, I'd rather have real rice though! LOL! Ms. Lulu is coming around to me! Stay tuned! Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

[@hothead6608]

Awesome man love rewatching the channel hope all is well with you guys during these dark time!

Hah !!! Miss Lulu has the Best one liners ever ! Great Show Mr Juanelo! Thanks for braving this crazy early cold November to put up another great recipe ! I'll have to get some Chinese five spice-- riced Cauliflower has become a staple in my low carb diet ! Thanks again for an awesome show!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Catyear! Ms. Lulu had a whole different take on the "Johnny and Dora Story," much to my dismay. 😁 It has been crazy cold here, but he show must go on, right? Just a teaspoon of the Chinese five-spice added a lot of flavor to the phony rice, so I was glad that I had the brainstorm to add it. Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend! All the best to you and yours!

[@aliciadishman]

You and Miss LuLu are wonderful. Hope you're well

[@NaturesFairy]

Hi my friend. Been missing you and Miss Lulu. I hope your both doing well during these scary times. I’m spending time in the woods by my house. Nobody is out there. Chris is doing the shopping. Be safe my friend. Sending hugs to you and Lulu. Love Brenda

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Brenda! Aww, how kind of you to check in on us! We've been thinking of you! Ms. Lulu and I are doing fine, knock on wood. We travel out to our shabby chateau by the lake every weekend still, but no one is within a mile of us out there. Of course we go food shopping, but that's as close as we get to anyone. Your pastime of enjoying nature couldn't be better suited for these challenging days which require social distancing. It's great that you get outside! How do you feel? We hope you're well! Stay safe! We always keep you in our thoughts! Take good care of yourself! Ms. Lulu joins in wishing you and Chris well! Much love and hugs!

[@NaturesFairy]

Juanelo1946 thank you for the kind reply. I’m glad you and Lulu have this special place. Many of the places we walk are closed because of the virus. Including all state parks and beaches in Rhode Island. My town is on border of Mass and RI. Migration has started and sadly I won’t get to see the shore birds. So sad how fast all our lives have had to change. I’ve been pretty run down from chemo. Day at a time. Stay well and safe. Hope your having fun fishing and cooking up your yummy meals. Hugs and Love to you both. 🤗❤️

[@Juanelo1946]

My sister tells me how brutal chemo is. I can only imagine. I only know that it's terribly unpleasant. Our hearts go out to you! Hang in there my dear friend! Please! 🌹💘🤗

[@NaturesFairy]

Wow John this meal looks soooooo good and easy to make. I think I can pull this off and I know Chris would love it. I was at the Asian Market last week and got black Bean sauce. Now I know what I’ll do with it. I have never tried 5 spice. I’ll get that next time I shop. Lol Lulu and Dora funny Gals. I love the footage of you headed back to the shed with your boat,, the sky was gorgeous. It’s been an unseasonable cold Nov here too. Winters coming. Hugs my friends from Brenda and Chris.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Brenda! Brrr, winter came early to the eastern half of the country this year, and fishing has become more and more challenging. But I urge you to try this recipe with tilapia, cod or whatever white fish you prefer. I ordered fish in black bean sauce at a local Chinese restaurant. I was so impressed that I finally tracked down this recipe for it. It worked! Now I can enjoy the dish at home. Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my dear friend! As always we are keeping you in our thoughts every day, and we wish you and Chris all the best!

[@NaturesFairy]

Juanelo1946 I read this before I food shopped this morning. I got cod frozen. Will make this after thanksgiving. So excited about it and I know Chris will be a happy guy. I’ll let you know how it comes out. Tell Miss Lulu I said howdy. 🤗❤️

[@Juanelo1946]

Brenda, I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping this dish turns out to your liking. I'm pretty certain that it will. Ms. Lulu is here sending you all her best wishes. Thanks again for your kindness!!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Roger! Aww, man, you're too nice to say that! I had this dish at a neighborhood Chinese restaurant. I loved it! So I was determined to find a recipe for it, and I did. It worked!

Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend! Take care and stay safe in your travels!

[@Winkiedoodles]

Excellent show in every respect, John. Braving the arctic blast we had a week or so ago was a feat in itself. I successfully skirted the icy line guide days by staying put inside, but that early arctic blast was colder than snot here with record breaking low temps. Icy line guides are a mess and very annoying! Did you happen to get a water temp at Lake K? Obviously the fish were still biting and, as it usually goes, persistence and finding the right lure eventually paid off. It's funny, too, that fish seem to be on some sort of clock. Sometimes it seems like nothing is happening and all of a sudden the switch goes on and they bite...and then it goes off and that's that. Good job finding the black grub/meal worm combo pattern; it was just the ticket. Your fake rice and the bass in black bean sauce looked really good. I for one certainly forget that many cultures prepare fish in a variety of ways whereas hereabouts (except in upscale restaurants) fish are typically breaded and pan or deep fried. It was interesting to see how you removed the seeds from the little red peppers. I enjoy some hot peppers but not surface of the sun hot peppers where you appear to be weeping during dinner. OK, so on the subject of impressing Miss Lulu with your manliness and forte, once again her intel network had clued her in on what actually happened with neighbors.....oopsie, he was hiding under the bed. Ah, well, although she blew up your plan, you still enjoyed a romantic evening like the many you have had since 1966. Looks like we are returning to more seasonal temperatures for a while at least so as the saying goes 'it aint over till it's over'. Hi to Jeanne and all the best from your Jeff City buddies, Don, Brenda and Lorraine

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi Don! The weather didn’t bother me that day until about hour four. Then I started to feel it straight through to my bones. The cold lasted even through this past weekend, when once again my lines and guides froze up. I did check the surface temperature of the water that Nov. 8th day, and it read 47.5°. This weekend it was even colder than that, very close to freezing. In fact, Friday was so cold that the on and off clock in the fishes brains never switched on. I managed only one little perch. • Years ago I ordered fish in black bean sauce at a local Chinese restaurant. I was so impressed that I finally tracked down this recipe for it. It worked! Now I can enjoy the dish at home. This is not to say that I don’t love breaded and fried fish too. Removing the seeds from the dried peppers was in the recipe, and for good reason. The dish had just the right amount of heat without igniting our tongues. • How is it that Ms. Lulu always seems to get a more detailed picture of our neighbors’ lives than I do? Her understanding of them always seems to wreck the idealistic picture I get. Although I was thwarted once again this week, I have a new strategy to win her heart next time! • Now it’s sunny and much warmer today here too already. I should be out fishing! Good luck to you in your angling attempts, because it looks like it ain’t over, yet! 😁 Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your great comment my friend! All the best to you, Brenda, and sister, Lorraine, there in Jefferson City, MO!

John, fyi I went float tube fishing yesterday because we were in a heat wave (hahaha) with air temperatures in the mid 40s. The water was 40 and 41 degrees...quite cold. I'm working on the video today as I was able to pattern a goodly number of crappie with a bonus 19 inch bass. You will appreciate the pattern when you see it. Hi to Jeanne again, Don and the gang

Don't recall watching that recipe but I am sure I did! Looks delicious as you made it, and nice to see you are using guar gum like a true professional chef! Guar gum is helpful in lowering cholesterol too, and derived from a plant, is all natural. Beautiful beanie bass dish at 9:36 ! Never cool your jubilation Juanelo, just be yourself and keep cookin' great food for her! "Get out from under the bed and fight like a man!" Ha Ha what a surprise ending. Love it mi tocayo!

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi John! I didn't know much about guar gum except that it's low in carbs. Wow, you're an encyclopedia of knowledge on foods! You still have me pondering all you told me about bay leaves, remember? No, I must not cool my jubilation! It's nice to be jubilant! Ms. Lulu always knows the real story of our married friends, and it's never the pretty picture that I get! Ouch! Thanks a million, mi tocayo! It's always so good to see you again!

[@RivetGardener]

Hey nice to hear from you again Juanelo! No, not an encyclopedic, simply been in the food manufacturing industry for most of my civilian professional career, so I have picked up some stuff that is useful and I am willing to share. ("Food Safety" and its ups and downs are real winners, in my book) Yeah, go with Guar Gum over Xanthan for low carbs...always the better. Stay away from pre-ground meat (burger/chicken/turkey) in packs or chubs. Same with pre-made frozen patties of same. Just for general safety. Overall, we as a country do amazingly well as far as food safety is concerned. Anyway, please give Miss Lulu Cheeks a gentle hug from me and let her know I appreciate her being in your videos. You two look so nice at the end of each one....it is so sweet, regardless of the snarly comment! :)

[@Juanelo1946]

Ah, your expertise in food safety is invaluable! Thanks loads for the tips! It's a great pleasure to pass on your hugs to Ms. Lulu! She can't be blamed for those nasty words, she's merely reciting the lines that the mean, old scriptwriter gives her! LOL! Thanks so much tocayo!!!

11 15/16ths... how lucky can one man get 😁 Seriously though, watching you cruise out of your classy covered dock to brave the freezing elements, even frozen fishing line, and 'cool' breezes was a real joy to behold. The recipe looks great too! Thank you and Lulu for brightening our days. ps. have you considered making your own cauliflower/rice? it's really very easy and cheaper. I've started to do it all the time now. A few bumps in a food processor and bob's your uncle. It freezes easy and keeps fresh in the fridge too.

[@Juanelo1946]

Hi R.L.! It was 11 and 15/16, give or take a half inch. 😁 After 4 hours, the refreshing cool breeze was enough. I was frozen to the bone! I used to always break down and process my own cauliflower rice. In fact, you can see me doing it in my older videos. But cleaning out the food processor each time was just too much, not to mention the mess of little grains all over the place. I was delighted to see it finally come out in pre-riced form. So kudos to you for tackling the job eagerly! 😊 Thanks so much for looking in on us and for your kindness my friend!

The bass are not to small and not to large for fillets for the recipe. Just the right size. i think if you veer from the recipe you will make the the black bean sauce still come out delicious. I like your quality control tape measure. A Taiwan coworker brought me some authentic fish sauce fermented for two years. It smelled like rotten mullet. I hope yours is better. Your fish and black bean sauce Turned out great. Ms Lulu's zingers are getting more and more clever. You need to study up on how to combat zingers. LOL

Hi April! My immediate thought is that you could change one item in this recipe and call it "tofu in black bean sauce." Really, the fish is so mild, it does in fact taste like tofu!
