Plecostomus - Suckermouth Catfish Catch & Cook - DELICIOUS! (How to Clean Armored Catfish)

[@Reza-1223]

Nicely done. I think that fish with the hard black shells is also famous in Guyana. Its called ' Sea Hassar'. ! Enjoy my friend. 😁😁🙏👍💯👍🙏🇬🇾

[@Shouldawornshoes]

Thanks man! It was very good. Is it famous like the regular Hassa?

[@Reza-1223]

This video was such a hoot to watch! You cracked me up several times. One piece of advice... Remember that your mother IS watching (your biggest fan) and that maybe the 'nearly getting killed by an alligator' anecdotes are giving me an new and not so delightful anxiety disorder. Love you! And the boys were darling, as always.

[@Shouldawornshoes]

Hahahaha sorry... I’m glad it was a hoot. 😂 Love you.

Dude I just watched a video where some guy caught one, poorly hacked at it, and dressed it in pickle juice before putting it on the grill to be cooked in its own shell. Clearly he had no intention of even eating it. One chick ate a bite and that was it. I appreciate that you don’t waste your kills and actually commit, experimenting or not. You actually prepare yours the same way you would if you did it every day. Thanks, man.

[@Shouldawornshoes]

It wasn't bad! It's super important to cook it right and season it. Thanks for watching and for the kind words!

Lmao are you talking about "catfish and carp" I think we watched the same video 🤣

Here in my country we fillet it and then we wash it with lime to get rid of the fishy smell and taste. And we fry it like a popcorn chicken. Delicious

[@douglashanson7489]

If you put the onion, and a little bit of the Seasonings/herbs in the foil alone, cook it a bit, and _then_ put the fish in there, you'll get nicely caramelized, or even crispy onions, without over-cooking the fish. Always consider how different ingredients cook slower or faster, for example: If I have a recipe that calls for both minced garlic and minced shallots (sautéed), then I'll put the shallots in the Skillet alone with the oil, and give them, like, maybe a 90- second to 2- minute head start. This is because I know that the minced garlic will burn much more easily/ much faster. This way, the shallots and garlic will both Reach that _"almost-burning-but-Not_ phase," at the same time, and then I can add the wine, and start building my sauce (for example). The same goes for anything. It could be as simple as baking some Brussel sprout halves with onion petals. Obviously the Brussel sprouts will start to brown in the oven _wayyy before_ onions. Simple Fix: throw the onions in a Skillet with some butter and oil, and Seasoning, and cook them like ⅓ of the way. With the sprouts, you just melt the butter, and Only use the Skillet to toss the sprouts, just to coat them, but without cooking them at all. Now, when you bake the onions and sprouts together, they brown at the same time. Nothing is worse than under-cooked onions with over-cooked meat, or whatever else. You have to stagger-in different ingredients, into different recipes.

[@Shouldawornshoes]

Thanks for those tips!

[@tominva4121]

Someone should start a restaurant in Florida specializing in serving these exotics! I would drive down to try these! Calls it a Central American restaurant too to gain interest!

[@rosysanchez7823]

Exotics ? Yeah right

[@TUKByV1]

I saw a horde of these in a canal in Broward. You'd probably need a boat to gig them, but I think a sturdy cast net could get you ten in a throw. Next to the IHOP at Sheridan and University Dr. Good luck!

Best armoured catfish so far! Bring me mode if you have some 😅 And avoid catching Gars if it is a catfish invasion.

Do you have a video of the parts and construction of fire pit... especially the swing about grill grate?

Unfortunately I don’t. A good friend of mine built it for me but I don’t think he videoed it. Maybe we can do another one and make a video about it one day! Thanks for watching!

I see them rolling in my local lake & was wond3ering about them. I know they are an aquarium fish & are invasive. Was wondering if they are taking insects off of the surface? Would only eat them in a survival situation as there plenty of bream for eatin'. Well done sir.

Wow... very few videos say that the fish tastes good. We need a solution it is proliferating in the US.

Are these legal to spear from land in Florida?

[@Shouldawornshoes]

Yes. They are invasive and have no harvest regulations.

[@franciscorabano1996]

Nicely done! I have eaten plecos in southern Colombia where they serve them whole on your plate (apparently boiled after being gutted) and you have to break the scutes with the back of your spoon to get at the meat. Not my favorite fish but glad that I have eaten them in case I have to survive in the jungle some day.

That was not a longnose gar. Longnose gar mouths are way longer and narrower than that. My best guess is that it was a Florida Gar

Thanks! Ill keep that in mind!

[@floridaaerialmedia]

How do you store your fish overnight? Thanks.

[@Shouldawornshoes]

Always better to just clean them right away but when I don’t have the time, I make a salt brine in a bucket and store it in my garage fridge over night. It works great for some fish but can make others mushy.
