On the Waters Edge Part 7 Shallow Weed Beds and Gutting the Catch

[@livincabolife]

Dave, i'm 23 yrs old and i have been watching your videos for the past four yrs or so and i just wanted to comment that your videos have truly jumped in leaps and bounds over the yrs in the sense of quailty and the information you graciously teach.And due to you,so has my outdoor knowlege and education.I just wanted to say thank you.

[@turk7sr59]

Watching these fishing videos really makes me miss my grandpa. I dont know anyone who liked fishing as much as he did. he could fish for 10 hours a day 7 days a week and love doing it again the next week. I used to sit on the sea wall with my grandpa and help him clean the 50 or so fish he would catch in a day(that was just what he brought home that doesnt include what he gave to the poor families on his way home).

[@alexmc09]

I really enjoy everything you do man, I have been a longtime fan since the first episode of dual survival. Thanks for all the amazing lessons.

[@wereice100]

Dave you have an awesome job, being outside all day fishing, hunting camping its awesome. Anyway im a huge fan of your videos and i just want to say keep doing what your doing.

[@Echo4PapaBravo]

The part I like about this is that you show cleaning it as soon as you get to the bank and pull the stringer from the water. Some people think its ok to just pack fish up for the drive home or the hike back to camp, but in the extreme heat of summer it doesn't take long to taint the meat after the catch dies if you leave gills and guts in. If you can't transport it live, clean it on the bank. Another great video, brother.

[@smirnoff46]

Thanks for the varied intro Dave. Nothing wrong with the other one but variety is the spice of life. Loving this series btw. You've got my interest in fishing going again. Thanks for all you do!

[@AlexDrieko]

Really enjoying this series Dave, keep them coming if possible and as time allows. Thanks.

[@neolexington]

Love Mepps lures, they have always worked for me. Thanks for taking us fishing!

[@phrankus2009]

Thanks for your continued contributions.

[@Science2Student]

absolutely amazing, even I don't have any boat, or other things to fish, because I am in a country with nothing, but your videos are really great. I appreciate your effort.

[@roundabout136]

Awesome video Dave. Digging the waters edge series. Keep up the good work and the great videos for me to watch in my spare time!

[@polemicvs]

Can't wait for the next vid Dave, really enjoyed watching Brother! Thanks.

[@hales41414]

i love those days i come home from work and see a brand new video from WildernessOutfitters. I really wish I lived in Ohio so i could take some of your classes, but New York is just a little to far for it to work. The videos will have to suffice. Keep up the good work buddy. Thanks for all the education so far and for all thats to come.

[@masterofce]

Great Vid - We appreciate what you do for us Dave.!!!

[@HunsValley]

Some of the best videos on the web...thanks...

[@northof50now]

ha ha! Love the way you through the PFD in the canoe. Can only imagine what was going through your head [based on yesterday's responses]. Of course you know...somebody's going to lecture you on the use of the tall boots in a boat. Face it Dave, you make it look easy, so everyone can be a critic. Thanks for all the posts.

[@RevolutionHappens]

Also, great way of making use giving information while it is still free. You're a damn good role model man. Sincerely

[@DarqueScape]

Long, hard day of work + coming home to THREE NEW DAVE CANTERBURY videos= A GOOD EVENING.

[@Shannon_Lacey]

I liked the underwater shots. That was great. Thanks for showing how to gut the fish. Some of us city slickers don't know how to do some of those kinds of things, but we are learning. ;-)

[@rudy52350]

i appreciate everything you show us !!!! thanks...

[@23Belligerent]

Nice catch. I'll have to try one of those lures out and see if I can finally catch something out of this lake in my area.

[@electrophile77]

What a fast and clean gutting!

[@anubis1335]

Thanks Dave. Great vids as always

[@shannonsmitification]

Another great vid. You have a knack for showing people what needs to be shown. Just the other day, I ran across a 40 year old guy who couldn't clean a fish. I guess there are some out there...but heck, don't tell people you can't clean a fish. Lie about it and learn how lol.

[@MiWilderness]

Dark colors on dark days, bright colors on bright days. That looked like a nice little Mepps.

[@shooter231991]

Get some Louisiana Fish Fry breading from any supermarket, then put it in a one gallon ziplock with your fillets. Shake it up until the meat is good and covered and slap em in a frying pan. This I think is the best way to enjoy smallmouth, largemouth, and crappie. With this method you don't have to be a world class chef to get the most out of your meat. When it comes to fish, smallmouth bass is by far my favorite fish to angle for and eat.

[@nathanlief]

Thank you so much for your great videos

[@CBGMaker]

Ha Ha over the scales comment. Dave I called the pathfinder indianapolis location and they were so nice to invite me over to look at all the different products you offer. I met your Dad and two other fellas, great people. Hard workers too.They had alot of stuff to ship out. We had a few laughs and I droped a few bucks on some good stuff. Your always thanks us, well thank you bro. and your family and your school.

[@jeepsnyotas]

awsome vid dave! theres nothing like learning how to survive the right way, looking forward to see how you cook that bass. also this is way better than the tv show

[@Vegan_Touring_Cyclist]

Hello. Now I see that you have a tv show. Sorry I missed because I do not have televisions for about 5 years. But now I started to watch. The first part has been checked. However, your KZbin channel is much better than the TV show. Your KZbin channel is my favorite. Thanks for doing that. And sorry for my bad english knowledge.

[@rgordon2012]

They aren't worried about you Dave, we've seen your show :), think they are just extremely curious about the gear you take. We love your channel brother, keep it going, we'll keep watching..

[@obiwanjacobi]

What a beautiful lake, such piece and quiet. Is dragging a line while canoeing a good way to fish? Thanx!

[@druface12345]

I like it! Look forward to the outdoors cooking video too.

[@Waldhandwerk]

Great video, good catch and lesson. Thank you very much. Sepp

[@missartist123]

Great timing! I needed to learn this. Thank you so much for posting this video!

[@Jonnyfriday]

Great informative video Dave

[@jonahwalker7717]

Never tried that type of bass before. Here in the Gaspe peninsula we have striped bass.

[@legokid-nf5de]

I went fishing yesterday caught fifty bluegill !

[@raistlin89108]

I have tried both and both are equally efficient; but if the weed bed slopes I fish linear to keep the bait in the target zone longer.

[@dlwlsinc]

Great video as usual. Could you make a video updating what you'll be doing in the future, video series, appearances, seminars, etc? Thanks

[@MrAlpineArcher]

hey Dave great video again. As much as you use Mepps spinner baits in your fishing series I was wandering if you have heard of their squirrel tail recycling program? Mepps will buy your excess squirrel tails or give you in store credit for each tail I think it's 29cents a tail or double that for in store credit... All you have to do is freeze them where they are straight and send them to mepps. They'll even cover the shipping! there's a form and more info on their website.

[@nerblebun]

I think Black Bass is about the best tasting freshwater fish around, especially if you get em in a pan or on the grill right away.

[@kylelee1911]

dave i got a nice fishing tip for you.if your in louisiana or texas get a boat and drive out to the oil rigs and sink a live shrimp about 15 to 20 feet down youll catch a lot of ice fish

[@BushMania4]

Hello! How long have you been bushcrafting and how did you get into it? Because im only fourteen, but I started about 3 years ago... I would really aprecciate if you would consider making a video on how you started... Thanks, Will

[@part270579]

Nice vid Dave! Glad you're doing more 'fishing' survival movies. Always the apprentice ;)

[@xzekkx]

hey Dave ive seen your pouch that you knife and was just wondering what you keep in it, whether its differs where you go or if its a set kit, thank keep it up

[@lazerbaconpro]

Thanks for the video Dave! Any chance we can get the old intro back?

[@zacksutt]

I need to take a vacation from ATL and come up there and learn from you. Great Video!!!!!!

[@1478953r]

I really wanted to come to one of your survival classes this summer, but just couldn't afford it due to some stuff coming up. Hopefully I'll be able to make it up there sometime soon though. Great video as always.

[@Memphistiger02]

Nice underwater view. Thanks for the videos man. I bought some stuff off your site yesterday and I cant wait for it to come in. I did buy a guyot 32oz bottle off of ebay last week for 15. Are all the guyot bottles single walled? I wanted the pathfinder bottle and cup but you are out for the next few weeks.

[@denialpb]

Nice video Dave those natural color mepps are the way to go

[@Echo4PapaBravo]

Compared to what? I love largemouth bass both pan fried and grilled. Butterfly it and grill skin-side down with lemon, garlic butter, a bit of dill, salt and pepper. Its a very mild fish, easy to overpower it. I like putting a little garlic in the melted butter I brush onto it and to sprinkle a bit of finely chopped dill onto it. If you oven bake it, wrap the filets in foil and add white wine to keep it moist. Be careful not to over cook it. Lemon, butter and dill are fish's friends.

[@Xxp3kerxX]

AWESOME FOOTAGE!!!

[@ziptiesnbiasplies]

LOVE THE VIDYAS MAN!

[@clinmo]

I noticed on your other video that you didn't have another paddle strapped to your canoe... What happens if you flip and the current takes your only paddle away? I do some kayaking and around here you r required to have a secondary paddle strapped to the kayak.

[@carter102]

What area is this filmed in? I'm up in Canada, seems like we have similar terrain. We have mostly bass, trout, perch and pickerel here.

[@01doubledog]

do you prefer rubber lures or plastic by the way im 11 and i love survivin brother thanks for teaching me so many wonderful things about survival also do you perfer rivers or a pond for bass

[@Fluentmotion]

Good stuff bro, love what your doin! Im looking into those meps baits, I havnt done much down here with those inline spinner baits down here in FL, will have to get a couple and try em out.

[@benboe97]

what was the knife you used to gut the fish? It looks a lot like one I got when I was in Germany.

[@wcfdemt]

thanks for the video... looks like that's a good all around bait...i bet it would catch crappie as well...we call em sac a lait here in louisiana....

[@OutdoorJunkie1992]

How do you like the GoPro? Im thinking of gettinh the Outdoor Edition and buying the night vision lens

[@nateshene725]

Do you have better luck fishing pike on the edge of shallow weed beds, 5"- 8" or deeper water >12"? Been arguing with my buddy about this. I really don't think deeper water means bigger fish when fishing pike.

[@briantheangler]

Thanks Dave!

[@FullmetaljacketJ]

Really cool they I watched all the Tv series seasons and we can watch Dave on the tube as well even better hes from Ohio as well.

[@backwoodscajun155]

nice bass dave and great under water view

[@kukri31]

freak yeah dude ive been looking for this. eh are u gonna show how to cook it too? id like to see that

[@jayjaybatangfrisco362]

Good to see u dave!!

[@dlvmark]

Nice catch! Hay Dave in the intro was that hog shot with the sling bow? If so what penetration did you get? He looked real close... Thanks for posting!

[@dwarning1]

looks like a tasty bass, mind doing a video on cooking it in the woods?thanks

[@LaneMaddox00]

we fish weeds with "pig 'n jig" blue and black rattle jig with a blue and black tail or pig by uncle josh...only thing with those are is that they are heavy so you gota have a open face real such as a abu garcia so thats not exactly light weight lol...great video glad to see some fishing videos!!

[@BigDH28]

Awesome! cant wait for the cooking part! :)

[@erickitt]

Do you know what the temp of the water was that day and what depth you were getting hits at?

[@ammary215]

Keep em comin Dave!

[@thomasnugent7602]

Very good. Thank you very much

[@RednecksGoneWild]

I love the Waters Edge Videos. Thank you

[@novascotiansurvival]

Love the new intro

[@G36Jeff]

Yea Dave... Do a vid on cooking it in the woods.

[@loboisfuzzy]

Dig the underwater canoe cam. Great vid, thanks.

[@Daffy711]

nice view! what lake are you fishing in?

[@123ninjab]

it would be cool to see you go over cooking methods and what not.

[@fastacker2]

Try a floating bass lure (looks like a bass green with whitish stripes) with the 2 treble hooks. I always had good luck with that one. No weeds, just lots of fish. Bass like to eat the young ones I guess. Always enjoy your vids.

[@eagleridge1972]

Always live your vids ..

[@1997michigan1997M]

is that knife you used a case sod buster and if not can you tell me what it is please

[@anubis1335]

You dont fillet out your bass? Or were you just doing it this way to show a simpler method?

[@live2fish1000]

hey im 12 years old i im a frost bitten Canadian boy who loves his fishing and archery as well as canoeing and wilderness self reliance i love you videos including this one although i saw you disobey one cardinal canoeing rule ALWAYS CARRY AN EXTRA PADDLE. other than that i love your videos it would be great if you could reply i have a few questions i would like to ask you.

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

Headlight or video camera on your head? Nice fish Dave!

[@afanofPanterA]

Hi Dave,Whats the name of the new intro song? I like what i've heard of it so far.Great vid too. I always apreciate them.

[@endtimer77]

bass are good eating we dont have alot of em here in BC.

[@whitestreak88]

when you gut a fish, if you find egg what do you do with them? Eat them or use them as bait?

[@ausselfreliance2900]

Hey dave, thanks for another top vid, but what diffrent breeds of fishes would you catch in these weed beds? ,thanks. and the lure is a thunderbug.:)

[@aspennelson3517]

Is that canoe hard to balance in?

[@bigfanofKp]

should try the Squirrel Tail spinner's I used them myself lure also good for bluegill

[@michaelcarter8209]

Outstanding

[@quackman7]

Way to use that sodbuster. Case makes a great knife

[@faron27]

cool video Dave how about a vid on distilling alcohol?

[@wcfdemt]

Any idea if those lures work on crappie...should sell at online store

[@Thejardos]

That was awesome

[@wildreliance]

Kind of off topic but are we going to see any SAN videos soon?

[@ambergassassin]

Nice bass Dave!

[@DrDoomic]

Dave, you should bring the knife with you on the canoe so you can kill it as fast as possible, so you don't make the fish suffer. I remember you say in Dual Survival you like fast kills when you hunt and so on.
