[@chrishooge3442]

This makes me wonder what I'm doing with my life.

[@chadlogansdad]

Who the F downvoted? I hope your power goes out halfway through a movie

[@froggleggers1805]

why bother to waste your energy on it.

[@leifmealone4749]

Vegans, but don't worry, they'll be too sick to do that before long.

[@pakde8002]

I have a theory that the first down vote on Coop's videos (and a lot of other KZbin creators) is made by the creators themselves because as soon as the video drop they get a down vote. Either that or a pissed off ex who just can't move on. But Coop never had a girlfriend so I'm thinking it's not like that in his case 😂😂😂

[@pocketpicker6613]

Lol that oddly specific curse

[@logancreed5041]

Its people who wish they can catch nice fish, like Coop and myself. Fishing world has haters too. Smh.

[@TexasVeteranFishing]

Cut the kingfish in 1x1x2 cubes. Wrap in dollar store bacon (seriously. Its paper thin) and grill till the bacon is done. The thin bacon will cook fast enough to not dry the fish out, and the fish will absorb some of the bacon fat. Brush with a tangy bbq sauce while cooking for added flavor.

[@chrishooge3442]

If he keeps eating like that he'll live forever.

[@jacksonmiller6929]

Coop trying to resist the urge to say “my man” after “cayenne”😳

[@pokeyellow9660]

Not going to lie i say that now haha.

[@jacksonmiller6929]

Poke Yellow I literally say it all the time too😅

[@samotmane5043]

"You dont need no gaff" --5 min later still trying to land it

[@dirtyjersey6748]

I honestly think it would be dope if you did some just cooking videos. Love the fishing but I think it's cool to see a non trained person kill it in the kitchen.

[@xavcar15]

Working in the middle of the desert hours away from home. Every time I watch your videos i feel like I’m back in corpus reeling them in.

[@MissionaryInMexico]

When camping or on a fishing outing, I don't season my fish while grilling or pan frying. There's plenty of flavor already. Hint: if you ever want to increase your fish flavor 5 fold, wrap it in banana leaf or aluminum foil and LEAVE THE HEAD ON. The flavor increase is unbelievable.

[@justingonzalez9813]

I’m 24 and it’s Crazy you live in my home town, I moved to Houston from Corpus Christi 3 years ago and just started watching your channel 5 months ago! Small world lol

[@waltertx.6020]

Man I didn't know that Coop was here in Corpus Christi.💥 Moved here 2 years ago.

[@anthonymartinez8976]

U should do a hard head next

[@DelgadoFishing5]

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

Try the Japanese Deba style knives for filleting and you'll never go back. Takes a little practice but the fillets come out perfect when you get the feel for it. Here is an example by a professional chef - kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJPGloOMaJ56ps0

[@jhrsmail]

Hey Coop...u should've put cayenne in the marinade for the fish. 😁

[@logisticsnail5014]

😂

[@ricky_ruiz6853]

Dude! was there yesterday and caught 4 Keeper reds and 1 king.

[@ricardocamarillo1957]

On what ? 🐟

[@randomcuriosity5147]

[@YakinwithJack]

[@jerrycordova6570]

I hooked up a tarpon in Port o conner yesterday

[@logisticsnail5014]

[@arlo2203]

[@limesrus1818]

[@joeadames6366]

Beautiful water

[@sethsanderson9699]

Dude your videos are so epic. Even on the days the fishing isn’t great just being out there is awesome.

[@col.billkilgore4341]

Your videos are really cool. And one of the parts I like most is when you cook the fish. Hugs from Brazil!... 💪🎣🐟🐠

[@ubaldoporto7605]

You’re Nutttttt filleted the king fish that way, but enjoy your kingfish

[@geoffreypalmer8482]

Thresherfishing - I appreciate that you edit out the “bad words” - you are one of the few fishing KZbinrs to do that and I want to say thank you because my 5 year old son loves watching your videos with me a “learn what not to do.” ;)

[@rupertmedford3901]

100% agree. I too have young children and won't watch if it isn't kid friendly.

[@natedawgtv7587]

Man those fish look like they give a good fight , going to check out this spot soon!

[@jakubkrzycki6868]

THOSE GRILLED FILLETS reminded me of a GRILLED Mexican Tuna steak I used to love having at a long gone place here in Dallas.....Marinated in Tequila and lime... must of had it a hundred times at lunch .....GREAT VIDEO and that water looked incredible.....

[@nathanielvargas3863]

Hi Coop

[@michaelguzman6494]

whats up

[@flashhonkey9431]

I seen you yesterday I think

[@wjstewdog]

Great video. Thanks. I like to cut their throats and bleed them out right after getting the hook out. How much fish does your dog eat?

[@251fishing]

Try puppy drum. Its my second favorite fish under mahi-mahi

[@gersontec6785]

Muito bom seus vídeos...👍🇧🇷

[@danielgc1970]

Best way to cook Kings? Cut the meat into strips around 6" by 2". Wrap the filet around a jalapeno slice packed with cream cheese. Then wrap that concoction in a slice of bacon and hold it with toothpicks. Grill it over mesquite or oak until done. Delicious. Sheepshead is excellent

[@stevehogan8829]

Holy crap...how the flipping far did you walk on that jetty... That looked like it was miles man. Spikes? hum must be really thick moss or seaweed or somthing,,,,ah I see it now. Wow, creat arial shots... now I see how long it is. Beautiful location, no wonder you fish there. That's a nice King Fish..Lot's O Meat. Surprised to hear how you rated the Kingfish over the Redfish but hey I've never tried either unseasoned.

[@rafaeldelaossa]

Excellent videos my friend, congratulations!! One question: it is a Penn Prevail medium or medium heavy rod? Thank you.

[@grantwilson4985]

I used to know that exact feeling as you brother. The tarpon seem like they’re all on top eating bait, but they are actually all on the deeper down, eating swimming blue crabs that drift with the current; they only come up to the top to gulp air. So, casting lures at them when they come up for air is not a good idea, because they are just going back to the bottom again to feed on crabs. You need to take a 5/0 or 6/0 circle hook with an egg and scoop up a blue crab with a dip net if you can and drift it along the jetties. It may seem wrong for tarpon but it works 100%.

[@gordonc615]

Caught some from the pier in PCB it was nuts with the bonita right on top of the kings

[@Mr._L30.]

You must be dating someone cause your kitchen is looking damn clean there Coops. AND! Your yard is looking clean too!

[@arlo2203]

living on the texas coast myself, it is true that the opinions on kingfish are evenly split regarding flavor... many cannot stand the taste, say it's too fishy, while others say u have to soak it in buttermilk overnite in fridge (there are a MILLION "old wives tale" type solutions like that for getting rid of harsh taste) and it will be fine. others say if u eat it immediately after catching, as coop did, it's the best fish you'll eat.

[@juansoto6025]

Beautiful beach dude.......... Could someone please tell me what beach this is?

[@ryden_jasso]

NICE🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@azwanaedie652]

we call it TENGGIRI..best cook with curry and coconut milk

[@uzo992]

whats up man I love your videos i just preordered a BOTE HD 12 ft that was suppose to ship friday but it didnt do you think i will get that Board?

[@bobbyiszt]

Best way to fillet a king fish. Or any fish is practice. Practice practice practice!!! That and a sharp knife!

[@adamsmith8533]

Sweet catch coop but that absolutely is not unseasoned kingfish. Edit, oops I missed that little piece.

[@iceetoxic9784]

And reds oofff man everybody catching 36 inch plus reds

[@king_lomas4266]

I knew you were going to say it tasted like chicken 😂 but damn bro wish I could slay the fish like you bro good vids keep it up

[@llshamelessll]

Gulf king mackerel is too high in mercury for me to eat anymore. The east coast king macks are not loaded with mercury however.

[@colinlaau9706]

Funny ur buying shit to help walk on the jetties. Where i am. They di everything possible to keep u off the jetties

[@robertpowser5624]

For sure the smaller king, reds and trout taste better to me. Small to medium shrimp have the same thing going on compared to jumbo.

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

My Man, Nutmeg.

[@muffinhater69]

When are you coming out with your own merch? You can easily make shirts for fishing or collab with someone

[@BertoFishingINYAngler]

Another awesome video!

[@motomax13]

[@mgrantom]

[@FerdzPerrera]

Congrats buds, nice size king fish mackerel

[@iceetoxic9784]

[@michaelcoonts1571]

I was told to never spray fresh water on saltwater fish. True? Idk but good video

[@danielmontalvo1984]

Bro you stepping up on the plates from the HEB brand paper plates ! Lol get em Coop!

[@swengallagher7526]

How do you have any taste buds left after eating that much cayenne pepper all time??

[@mikec8017]

Every time I go the jetty it’s wall to wall people. You had that place to yourself!

[@Fishin4Trophies]

Nice! Hope they still out there heading out in a few days

[@lukecondron1314]

“No seasoning”then makes a marinate full of seasoning and flavour ha

[@brentbillig5864]

Was waiting for the classic.. Lets Go!

[@michaelb6349]

Yo bring saltwater back with you to wash off the fillets! Freshwater is terrible for the meat

[@BMRFISHING]
