Key Largo Lobster Mini Season 2019

[@MichelleFitchgoomba98]

I love you guys! You are my newest most favorite channel! Xoxoxo oh yeah Heiko sent me lol!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Wow! Your new favorite channel?!?!? That makes us extremely happy!! -Capt. Dan & Elizabeth

[@badfishingbissanschlagdril3637]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@otbfishing6408]

You guys killed it! Not a ton of people got their limit this year, great work.

[@skigod22]

Loved watching you catch lobster!!! Looked so easy! Wish I could do that! Once Elizabeth got in the water though, I lost track of what you caught! Keep up the great videos!!!

[@AbbyBrian]

Looks like you guys had a fun day. Nice to have your son along with you. All the best. Brian

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Brian O: Yeah, always fun fishing with my son who is an avid fisherman in his own right. Great day for everyone! -Capt. Dan

[@merrywissemes]

Thanks for taking us with you through ol’ KZbin. If nobody has told you already, your production quality gets better with every video. When we go down to FL next summer, we might make a side trip down to the Keys during the mini-season and give catching lobsters a try. I guess I better start reading up on rules and regs, eh?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Thank you SO much!! All of this video production really has a big learning curve. Our goal is to make each video better than the last, so REALLY appreciate your feedback on that! Back to lobstering, YES - seriously review those rules and regulations BEFORE you come down next year. Actually, go ahead and save our lobster mini season prep video, because we show you exactly where to find the regs and give some good tips - all of which will still be relevant next year. kzbin.info/www/bejne/inrakKtnhrx2pqs Please hit us up when you head back down here!! We'd love to meet you guys!! -Elizabeth & Capt. Dan

[@merrywissemes]

Elizabeth and Capitan Dan. We will for sure watch that video again and review those regs. I’ll also have to start collecting equipment. It would be fun for Stella and I to meet up with you guys and maybe literally FOLLOW YOU out to some of these spots! 😄 Hey, how deep was the water in this video anyway? About 10ft?

[@wegottafishdude]

🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 Awesome stuff dude

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Thank you!

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Wow fast work on the editing! Good work guys loved it! They were so tasty. Love the laugh out of Elizabeth after she says the lobster is bigger than her head!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Heiko, great day on the water bro! Can’t wait to see your vid. Hope you are feeling better soon! -Dan

[@wicholee1]

Awesome teamwork and Elizabeth is a rock star!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

WOW Luis! Thanks so much for that!! We really do make a great team! -Elizabeth

[@icimblind]

Do you ever see any sharks while fishing for lobsters?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

icimblind: Yes, we see sharks quite often while snorkeling and diving. -Capt Dan

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

icimblind: Do you lobster where you live? -Capt Dan

[@icimblind]

@@FloridaFishingCoupleWell, I am currently living in the Maritimes, that's eastern Canada. They have licenses (Up to a million dollars) and lobster boats, but that doesn't mean people don't go out and get them illegally with a landing net. So I will not comment any further than that. Huge fine if you get caught but I know people do it. And so does the DFO.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

icimblind: So it appears our laws differ greatly, especially for recreational lobstering here in Florida. We get to take 6 per day here in Monroe county during season which lasts from late July for the 2 day mini season and then August 6 through March 31. Thank you for watching, subscribing, and commenting on our channel. - Capt Dan & Elizabeth

[@markfranks943]

Another superb upload from captain dan and Elizabeth great footage and the water is Crystal clear .beautiful nothing like the murky waters of the uk. And your upload with heiko last week during the storm wow helm master dan would feel safe fishing in any weather with you's florida fishing is on another level.keep up the good work guys cheers

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Mark Franks: Thanks for the heartfelt comment. I grew up in New York where the water was murky to say the least. Love diving here in Florida where the water looks like gin! -Capt Dan

[@markfranks943]

@@FloridaFishingCouple hopefully in the not to distant future will make the big move there been wanting to since the early 90s we were lucky enough to do vacations to florida ever since we were kids and think my kids would benefit from that way of life,the only draw back is trades in the uk an't trades in the us so without a sponsor we have to go the harder route and plow everything in to my home here and with a bit of luck in a few years it will all work out.lol

[@averagenative]

I love y'alls videos! Keep em coming! Make me miss Florida

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Thanks so much!! Really appreciate you watching and commenting! Where are you now? -Elizabeth and Capt. Dan

[@averagenative]

@@FloridaFishingCouple I'm out in Portland Oregon. There's some river fishing here but nothing like fishing the gulf! Used to live in Tampa

[@kimmiekoolbeans]

Good job y’all! Especially using those snares. I can’t seem to use them underwater I gotta grab em by hand but we keep one on the boat to rescue pelicans. They got a hell of a snap. Wonderful video & fantastic job getting it up timely! Bravo Capt. Dan & Elizabeth 👏🏼👏🏼

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Thanks Kimmie! This is one of the videos we try to get out RIGHT away! Appreciate the feedback! -Elizabeth

[@MrBrymstond]

Just looking at the smiles on the thumbnail makes me happy, but not as happy as being there catching these beast. ❤😍

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

MrBrymstond: We love lobster season here in the Keys - makes us very happy! Really appreciate you subbing and watching our channel. -Capt Dan & Elizabeth

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Michael Plesch: Welcome to our KZbin family Michael. We appreciate you subbing and supporting our channel. Hopefully, lots of vids coming soon. -Capt Dan & Elizabeth

[@mkw707]

Hi, thx 4 sharing. Nice bounty but didn't get much adventure out of this vid, though again, very bountiful

[@danieldawson5004]

Man I really miss those days! However, I know how the normal public goes crazy on those two days. Went through 19 seasons there during mini season and caught lots of bugs down there.

[@SeaSquatchFishing]

Nice job y'all! We're in Marathon, and our vis is no where near as good as the vis up there in Largo.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Sea-Squatch 1: That surprises me. We were in Key Colony fishing last week and the water looked pretty good. -Capt. Dan

[@coyotefeeder]

How deep was it there?

[@glenngonefishing2474]

Great video as always! One of three channels I always like first then watch and never disappointed 😀..... Awesome job guys congrats on a good catch!

[@NEIL812]

Same here. Like and then watch, no exceptions and I have yet to be disappointed.

Captain Lou: was a GREAT day on the water! Lobster for all! -Capt. Dan & Elizabeth

[@megamattoutdoors7648]

Great day yall. Awesome how Elizabeth emphasized the safety in the beginning. Sucks I'm not there this year. Doctors orders. Maybe when the regular season opens

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Matt Irwin: Sorry you missed the sport season, but hope you recover soon and your back for regular season knocking them dead!! -Capt. Dan

[@nyjay75]

Another great video. I’m fairly new to the channel, so I may have missed it....but have you guys done either of the following videos yet??? 1; how you 2 met... 2; detailed review of your boat and gear.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

nyjay75: Welcome to our KZbin family! We do have a video about our boat and I included the direct link below. We do not have a video about how we met (maybe an idea for the future!) Anyway thanks for watching, commenting, and subbing our channel. Here is the link for the boat review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZqufmOtoatppqs -Capt, Dan & Elizabeth

[@InfantryOutdoors]

Great video! New here and I just subscribed. I am near Ft Lauderdale and really enjoy seeing other Florida KZbinrs. I will be watching for the next one!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Infantry Outdoors: Awesome! Welcome to the channel! -Capt Dan & Elizabeth

[@anomie1040]

Can you plz tell me the depth of the water you are fishing in.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

TRUE ANOMALY: For lobster between 8 and 15 feet. -Capt. Dan

[@adamblum3096]

Guys how deep typically are you diving?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Typically 8 - 20ft. Capt. Dan has full dive gear and does deeper dives, but Elizabeth is working on that certification. So, it just depends on the day. This day, we were in about 8-15 feet free diving. -Elizabeth & Capt. Dan

[@NEIL812]

Looked like a great time in the water, thanks for sharing it with us and letting us follow you in your adventures. A question to compare notes though, did you see any lion fish? We limited out in The keys also but did not see a single lion fish, that is a good sign! Also, another reason for a person in the boat is because the improper store of gear can even make some measuring sticks shrink a tiny bit with time, having that second person double checking the catch is a safety net. I mean look, FWC was on site and a boat was boarded. Thanks for the great video, and thanks for posting. Can't wait for what's next!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

We must have been fishing the same waters because we did not see a single Lionfish either. The FWC boarded our friend Heiko’s boat as well as a few others but not ours. -Capt. Dan

[@NEIL812]

Great story of the day Dan and Elizabeth. Those tails looked amazing coming off the grill. My friend brought me a few back from the keys since I can’t dive this year. Tight lines

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Man, that's a great friend!! When you're cleared to dive, we'll plan a lobstering trip down here, bro! - Capt. Dan & Elizabeth

[@waternwoods6160]

Check for a hole between the Cowpens and Ironwood pass my family found it in the early sixties caught a lot of red grouper out of that hole.🤪😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@douglasthemis9954]

great vid you got me jonesing for some lobster! Keep it up you folks rock!!!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Man, they were SOOOOO good!!! There is nothing quite like lobster!! -Elizabeth & Capt. Dan

[@MichelleFitchgoomba98]

Why do they call this the mini season? Is the limit just smaller?

[@NEIL812]

It is called mini season because it runs for a couple of days only. Then it closes until regular season opens for a few month's time. There is more to it but, that's the watered down version.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Michelle Fitch: So mini- season is a two day sport season open to divers and recreational lobstering only. The regular commercial season opens Aug. 6. Mini-season gives everyone a chance to catch lobster before the commercial guys are allowed to set their traps. -Capt. Dan

[@MichelleFitchgoomba98]

Ahh thanks Capt. Dan, Umm I am hoping that some day really soon I can come fishing with you and Elizabeth. I have family in Sarasota and have been pondering being one of those Ohio people that gives up on the winter weather and just pick up and move south. I hope I can hitch a ride on your boat to fish lol...Thanks for the entertainment. Keep up the wonderful footage!!!@@FloridaFishingCouple

[@ProjectReel]

Beautiful morning in the water and grilled lobster afterwards 👍🏼🔥 what did you place on the grill to cook those lobster?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Fishing with Jeff: We use a copper grill plate to cook all of our fish and lobster on the grill. It stops bits of fish from falling in between the grated but still leaves grill marks. It’s great to cook with. I’ll have Elizabeth reach out and send you the link to where we buy them. -Capt. Dan

[@ProjectReel]

Florida Fishing Couple Thanks Dan! I also have some pictures to send you guys from our trip with Ryan. Have a video up as well.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Here is the direct link to the grill mats we use amzn.to/2LHVl6g Send those picts our way! :-D

[@ChopperOutdoors]

Great job!! I may need to join that convoy next year lol. I went out day two in Broward and got my 12 lobster limit.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

ChopperOutdoors: Yeah, we only get 6 per day here in Monroe county; so 12 for the 2 day mini season. -Capt. Dan

No. I missed this year since I went down for 12 days at beginning of june/July. But killed the Red Snapper, 2 weekend mini Season. I saw everybody killed

Let me tell you something at 50 I could tell you all kinds of grouper holes you could in Everglades National Park in Florida Bay where you could tear the grouper and the Crawfish up. By landmarks. But no longer allowed.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Water n Woods: You can still fish there can’t you? -Capt. Dan

[@WoodenBoatGuy]

I achieved my primary goal for mini season - I didn't get run over. As for lobster, well, I didn't get skunked :) How deep were you?

[@rd._874]

You guys want to know my spot and have an unlimited amount of lobsters? 😎 Go to Cudjoe Key, take a road called Blimp Road, go all the way straight down until you get to a boat ramp. At least 200+ lobsters we found in no more than three feet of water. Good luck, happy lobsters 😂

[@waternwoods6160]

7 feet or less

[@Pandaairplane6]

The quality keeps getting better. Which is not great for the small facehugging water aliens that sound horrible! Can you not wave flags or mark the water somehow?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

This whole thing is a learning process, so we try to make every video better than the last. We have a HUGE dive flag up any time there are snorkelers or divers in the water. Boats kept getting so close that we finally also put a floating dive flag in the water with Ethan and Matthew. It's a pain to drag that around with you in addition to everything else you have to carry for the lobstering, but better safe than sorry. -Elizabeth

[@Pandaairplane6]

Yes... we just kept streaming and watched your tip video which stated all of the above. That’s what we get for not keeping up!!!! 😳😬

[@waternwoods6160]

When I was a kid in the seventies we got all the Crawfish in the Bay. Never had to go on the ocean side for crawfish. But that was before Everglades National Park. Man X was so good back then.🇺🇸💪 there were basically no people in the keys back then.😁😁😁😁😁😁🇺🇸
