Awesome footage as always Kelly. Never a disappointment when one of your videos pop up. My 9 yr.old heard your voice as I was watching and came running. Had to start video over from the beginning. I don't know how you go from Panama to up north but keep at it girl, we'll keep watching. Atlanta loves you kelly!

[@IslandKey]

I was cringing at the cold weather coming from Pamana for sure! but it was a good time

[@ajyoung4530]

@@IslandKey I grew up all over Michigan! I’ve been to grand haven a few times… it’s the last spot to warm up it seems but god is it beautiful. I’m tbh really happy to see you continuing on like many others have issues doing. Congratulations on so many levels! Be safe out there!!! Wherever you are, now and in the future ❤🎉

Maria is a trip, love having her along on your adventures! Definitely pushes the excitement meter up a notch. Captain Kirk, excellent! Thanks for taking me along on this fun trip!

[@fishinguy7536]

I think this is my favorite video you've ever posted for us Kelly! You and Maria are a RIOT together! It's always great to see people ENJOYING fishing. That was proven even more-so when Maria threw such a fit catching that big drum (sheephead) at the Marina. Something that most of us Midwesterners find annoying...(only because they are usually caught by people fishing for Walleyes, or even flipping for Bass...but as wonderfully as they fight, they are usually lumped into that rough fish category, yet you guys found the beauty in such a catch and that was AWESOME! Kirk is a Cool Captain and would be a great guy to charter and go out fishin with. God Bless, and looking forward to more of that CRRRRAZY marina fish'n content!

[@carolmiland9665]

What a great time. Thank you capitan Kirk. Kelly..you and Maria always have a great time. Ahe is ao happy always. Take care ❤

[@sputnikalgrim]

More clear, cold, freshwater fishing please. I’m a Wisconsinite that’s fished freshwater his entire life. Back in the 80s we’d catch huge lake perch in Sister Bay, Door County. It’s not a fish fry without perch. I haven’t been on the big lake in years but I’ve fished inland lakes forever.

[@RockInMyBirkernstock]

get kelly on some jumbo perch! heck yes. sooo tasty, lil perch burgers

[@nissehult7008]

I fish in Sweden's largest lake for salmon just like you did. The salmon here is the world's largest lake salmon. They can reach over 20 kg (44 pounds). Some have been shipped over to the USA and released in Lake Michigan. It is an incredibly good fish and a fantastic sport fish. I have followed your channel for years Kelly and it just keeps getting better. Thanks!

[@IslandKey]

Thank you very much :)

[@proudgrandma138]

The salmon in Washington states river (Columbia River i think) were 6' long in 1968.

[@nissehult7008]

@@proudgrandma138 They were donated to Michigan in 1973 as fish roe. It is salmo salar (Atlantic salmon) that was closed into Lake Vanern 8000-10000 years ago after the uplift of the land after the last ice age. Sadly, they are highly endangered due to hydropower. The largest caught in Lake Michigan (1981) weighed 32 lb.

If you haven't figured it out I love and adore to your demeanor in your softness and your wholesomeness and you're sweet and just what a remarkable beautiful young woman you are I admire what you do and I love waking up and seeing a new channel, with Kelly young it kind of makes my day sweetheart I appreciate it thank you

[@rodewerk5034]

You need to go to Alaska and fish the Copper River. Fresh caught wild King Salmon is great, wait until you taste fresh caught wild Sockeye Salmon. Sockeye Salmon is the best tasting fish on the planet, June is the best time of the year to catch them. Thanks a lot for the wonderful video!

[@user-yf4zs3qq9n]

[@roberthutchison315]

Salmon and trout from clean cold water are amazing. I'll take a big fish, throw butter and simple spices in, and just throw it in the oven. The fat makes them hard to mess up unless you go nuts with spice or over cook.

Thanks John!

[@gilbertdelgado6703]

One thing we used to do with the salmon was after we filleted them was to cut the head, tail and fins off, and trim the stomach away if you haven’t already gutted them. Season it however you like and light smoke and strip the meat from the back bone. Make salmon salad, salmon dip, salmon cakes or whatever you like. That way nothing is wasted.

[@jayweaver8316]
