What a great video, Gabe!!! can't wait to see what you put out next!!!

[@miguelcjr777]

Whaatttttt you have your own channel... awesome can't wait to see your vids

[@eligioflores5134]

Nothing like two brothers supporting each other. Big fan of Rob!! Gabe you're doing a great job!!

[@changbang7038]

He sounds just like you lol

[@gregjohnson9681]

Giant bluegills always have a place in my heart😊. Did you brothers grow up on that lake? The Midwest is my home country but I sure wouldn’t mind spending some time down where you guys are! I don’t get around much these days due to my disability! Up here in North Dakota I run up to Devils Lake and get giant pike. Most people don’t like the northern pike but once you learn how to fillet out the Y bones northern pike are just awesome! But nothing compares really big sunfish or bluegills when it comes to bones for bone fight! Not to mention they taste incredible! Most of us northerners don’t have any idea what grits taste like. But you make it sound really good! The one thing that stands out about you brothers is you don’t make any bones about your faith! I really respect that in today’s world! Take care and God bless! Greg Johnson

[@cozy_af2090]

Been watching Gabe since this first video. The fishing and hunting is cool, but honestly there are thousands of channels doing that. Hats off at the table, saying grace, no swearing.... that's why me and my girls are still watching. Same with Rob.

[@russellroberts2356]

My favorite part was the honor you showed our Father by thanking him for the meal.

[@edwinlopez4795]

I have seen a bunch of your videos and all of DeerMeat's videos. Going all the back to the beginning with your channel. Keep up the great work

[@BluegabeArrington]

Thank you

I started as a kid catching those.....30 years later they are still my favorite thing to fish for

[@stevenboyd7254]

I have got to try that! Thanks y'all so much for the prayer before you ate. That was a blessing

[@charlesbell7036]

Fill the sink up with water and scale while submerged. No problem

[@myqalguluski1015]

Charles Bell I like to do it at the launch site

[@kevinmencer3782]

Or scale it outside and clean up with the hose.

I lost count the number of times I come back to this Video. Childhood memories has me teaching my step son and daughter how much fun I had in the past.

[@dennisnorkaitis9726]

Thank you . I was born n raised in southern California . I miss the sun fish blue gills . me and my Grandpa would catch a mess of blue gills . one time he was bringing in a blue gills and got a 10 lbs large mouthed bass . on same line . Thank you for Reminding me! I'M 54 yrs old . I appreciate your spending time with your Family ! Beautiful !

Glad to see you on KZbin. Much respect to The differences between you and Robert. My pleasure to be a subscriber 🇺🇸 Best wishes on this platform 👍🏼

Thank you for showing the Lake Okeechobee, great fishing, cooking and especially thank you for prayer at the end. Many blessings to you.

[@dorawarden4007]

Man this really hit home for me, just brought back so many memories of me and my grandpa catching bluegill out of a pond and frying em up with some grits for Sunday dinner ❤️ awesome video

[@ryanhelgerson2829]

Rock on Gabe! Can truly tell you're genuine dude, and I wish you much success with this. I'll be a supporter all the way!

[@tedchu8888]

I like the evening sky over the lake - just so beautiful!

[@JoelWetzel]

I'm impressed by how neat and clean your house is; the same goes for your brother's. Since you do so many manly things like hunting and fishing would you consider showing the world, and my son, that real men also clean up after themselves? Thanks, and keep up the good work.

[@BluegabeArrington]

Great Job, Gabe! I look forward to seeing your channel grow! I go back every now and then and watch my first video on Deermeatfordinner, I"m sure you'll visit this video many times over the years!

good job brother, I love seeing couples fish, clean and cook like my parents used to do!

[@watchman316ly]

Loved how you n your wife prayed and gave thanks! Amen!!!

[@jasonnorton9604]

Full disclosure, I came across your videos before Robert's lol. Watched a couple hundred of yours but wanted to make it back to the first to appreciate your beginnings. Now I share your videos with my boys, who are close to Jake and Luke's ages, and they are also fans. Thanks again for great content with wholesome values. Keep'em comin'!

[@tylertyler6112]

Love the video can't wait to see your channel grow and just show the world what Florida has to offer season-to-season

[@pomexfishing5061]

Awesome!! I love your brother Deermeat channel and so glad I found you now. You both are very informative and fun to watch! Tight tight lines.

[@jayseaem]

Watched a couple of your vlogs while watching DMFD and just loved em, so subscribed before starting from beginning. blessings to you and your family from the UK

[@prideauto102]

And you cook for your LADY! AWESOME!! also how you treat the FISHES with respect.

[@ericsmith1244]

My step dad lived in Florida for a while. he would tell me stories of all the fun he had fishing out there at lake Okeechobee.

[@jerrylove4844]

Great video Gabe! It’s nice to see a proper bluegill clean and cook. I’ve filleted many thousands of bluegill but if I had to pick one method for big gills it would be scale, head, and score. Crispy fins are the potato chips of the water!!

[@coreyg638]

Now that is some tasty groceries! First fish I ever caught was a bluegill at 4 years old. Good ole lakes of central Florida.

[@coreyg638]

Bluegill, shellcracker, and specks (speckled perch) are some of my favorite eating, especially for freshwater.

[@fluffyone675]

I enjoy watching deer meat for dinner channel and yours as well. Yall are ever family friendly. I now when i watch them with my family i dont have to worried about my daughter picking up a new vocabulary. Thank you to you and your brother for making them that way. O and we can not leave out deer mom!!!!!!!!

[@flippindocks8183]

Enjoyed everything about this video. Well spoken host. Family oriented. The dog! Prayer. Great food. This video has it all. Thank you for sharing.

[@scragmanw]

If I’m not doing it, in South Carolina, I’m watching it being done by folks like you. Thanks for the video.

[@hunterharrington1639]

For the longest time I’ve been waiting for you to have your own KZbin channel so when I’ve watched all of robs videos I can watch you! Your family is god fearing and AWESOME!

[@crossmfarm1925]

Thanks for the prayer and loved your video.... Keep up the great job

[@danielestrella7165]

Thank you for showing me now to cook bluegill. I tried it once and I mess it up by adding egg wash and the corn meal did not cook all the way. 🤣🤣🤣 but I like the taste of the fish. Thank you again. God bless you and your family.

[@sioragiannapasirio8368]

Hey Gabe, thought to rewatch your first KZbin videos while waiting for your newest. It’s great seeing how much you grown your channel. You kept going and just being yourself. Glad you didn’t listen to all those negative reviews. Great Job Bro!

[@ginnymoon2710]

Had to rewatch to make sure i Cook my first perch of 2021. Thank you so much for teaching and getting me back out in the world again.

Man you have come so far, didnt even know this was your first video until I saw a comment and had to see if it was true. Very awesome to see where you are at now, very inspiring! Keep it up brother!

[@larrypatterson2096]

The catch and cleans are the best. The cooking is always an added bonus

[@scottleggejr]

Perfection brother. I grew up in the swamps of Louisiana and Mississippi and cough "brim" till I was blue in the gills myself! You got a new sub out of me!

[@robertguthrie1894]

I was born and raised in Florida and never heard of cheese curds until I moved to Wisconsin. now I love cheese curds

[@squirrelgunsmith1131]

Hmmm, we always called it cottage cheese, although granted, home made curds are some different than store bought "curds and whey". Country is country no matter where you go. Ex. a good friend of mine did college at US Military Academy in West Point, NY. He was from around Daytona, FL. He said one time, "You haven't seen a hick until you have seen one from West Point, NY!"

[@hhills8512]

I was raised in Canal Point Florida and we Fish Lake Okeechobee everyday I miss catching those bluegills very good eating I enjoyed the video

[@BucketList-zk5me]

Man that takes me back to when I lived in Florida. I love the coastal stuff your brother does, but I do miss gigging, bowfishing for tilapia and gar, and just plain old fishing in the lakes down there. Keep up the good work!

[@finnwhite3257]

So happy to see you are making grate videos also. I've been watching DMFD for years and wish you the same success. I have had the pleasure of fishing Florida many times in my life and hope to return soon and run into you. God speed brother!

[@kingkerce9253]

Lake Okee was once under the ocean and still has mullet, snook, tarpon, cravelle jack and flounder present.Also manatees come in from both coasts.

[@mram7634]

Great video! You should try scaling fish inside a bowl with water in it or do it in your sink filled halfway with water. I use these methods everytime I scale fish indoors or the kitchen. Saves me the trouble from my "significant half" 👍🏼🤷🏽‍♂️

Brings back a lot of memories, thanks PJD

Thought I had seen all your videos but this was a new one to me. I grew up country so bluegill fishing is nothing new. Thanks for all the super videos on stuff that interests me. Really respect you not being embarrassed to pray on your videos. Our America would improve so much if everyone would do the same. God bless!!

Gabriel, sorry but you owe me a fishing trip! No I don’t want to go wading with gators ! Another great video 👍👏🇺🇸

Hey I am from Ukraine originally, but my favorite food is fried bluegill and a bowl of grits with cheese salt and pepper.. Thanks for sharing. God bless.

Nice job Gabe. I lived off blue gill when I lived in Orlando. Blue gill and grapefruit juice. You know there’s nothing as sweet as a grapefruit goin too seed. You find em in the ground, hard as rocks under the trees. Thanks for prayin bro. That’s the best part. Thanking God for the stuff He gives us.
