Remote Beach Camping - Everglades National Park (Catch/Clean/Cook)

In this episode we take the 28' Freeman back to Everglades National Park and camp on the beach at Cape Sable. We do a little bit of fishing on the way back and catch some jacks and a nice sheepshead (which we cook up for dinner). While on the beach we put out a couple rods and catch a variety of sharks before sunset. The next morning we pack up the tent and start our run back toward Islamorada. We wind up getting in on a hot tripletail bite and catch one really nice one at 14.7 lbs!

Great video Guys. Boating, fishing and camping go so well together. Fun stuff!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Aloha. I agree on good quality sunglasses. I’m a hobie guy myself. Polarized, glass, been wearing the same pair for twenty years. Hawaii, Alaska, and California. Great on the water, and just in general. I’m 61, and I need reading glasses now, but otherwise my eyesight is great. I attribute that to good quality sunglasses.

[@StanzFam]

Well said!

Nick, I'm surprised you didn't find the lean-to that Bean and Astrid live under on that island. He's really taking care of her after the marriage. 🤣

[@donaldoakjones2739]

I'm sorry..I just about peed my pants when you netted a sheepshead with a bait net!

[@StanzFam]

😜. When we caught the Tripletail we really could have used a bigger net 😳

[@TheSpadre]

Where do you keep finding Madisons? I was missing the old one, and this one showed up.

[@ingoodmusic]

finally smth new

[@Utilitylocatorman]

You gotta leave those guppy nets at home. Lol

Shrimp net for the livewell* But we will have a bigger landing net next time for sure

To start off love the content A one .quick question what type of boat you got

Thanks for watching. This is a 28 Freeman

[@michaelmalden4115]

We are hoping to do the same trip in Feb. Did gullivan key in 10000 islands a few yrs back and was great. In tavernier so gonna make the run to cape and see how it goes. Did you do east or middle cape sable?

[@chris6054]

I've actually tried recommending they go to 10,000 a year or two back...I've heard it's a "winter only" or after a cold snap trip because that's the only time the bugs die down. But the fishing potential, hopping between islands just exploring, looked very cool. Definitely a trip I'll be making soon!

[@michaelmalden4115]

@chris6054 it was our first camping trip for my 9yr old at the time. Area was perfect and did a lot of research with the extreme tidal changes. Posted a few vids on here (gullivan island) but I highly reccomend. We had the whole island to ourselves. Bugs were pretty bad even in spring break of March but bug spray was our friend. First night wad a little rough as winds picked up to about 30mph which made for a sleepless night. Still an awesome trip and ready to try cape sable this time since its a little closer. Should be about 1.5hrs from tavernier if I don't stop and try for tripletail!

[@StanzFam]

We did middle cape! Good luck if you go. Fingers crossed for good weather

[@snomofilms]

Madison ❤

[@davewylie654]

So Nick have you ever had a group all mount the same fish???? Makes for a great day 😂 we caught a Blue one about 200 one day and all 6 dudes mounted it and a 30 pound Bull six ways as well. Immortalized to Kentucky via Pompano Beach via Key West 😂😂 Hey I can write that Tripetail up for you guys?,😂😂

[@StanzFam]

6 mounts off one fish is epic!!! I haven’t ever done that 👊🏻

[@davewylie654]

@StanzFam 6 mounts off 2 fish the Blue and the Bull 12 total on a 3/4 Day 🤣🤣🤣

[@davewylie654]

@StanzFam we don't do alot of it but they brought it up and I broke out the special priceless 🤣🤣 we have some dudes down this way that are just gross with it and I can't do it

[@georgeb6079]

Ok I found lion fish called girl crush the lobsters with blue nomads. Only one fish I saw but lots of lion fish with Scott and his son miles and lots of lobsters miles first. With Gabe and deer meat they get there's with tanks usually deeper water took me 3 years of looking on to next vid

[@TheUglyHooker]

How do you like using that Penn authority reel?

They’re awesome! Super smooth and great drag

Yes 👮🏻

[@daniellemay3058]

Wow😢😮😅😊3 sharks in a couple hours, food for 2 for a year????

[@mdv2043]

Did yall see any rats on the island. Last time we were down in the keys we camped out on an island way away from everything and after the sun went down I shined a spotlight back in the brush and there was litteraly thousands of rats looking back at us. They were fighting all night low and a couple came up and nibbled on the tent. Not alot of sleep like you.

[@prod.roadrunner]

Sounds like I’ll have to bring my cat if I ever camp there!

[@georgeb6079]

When you tag small sword fish you say people will know how big he was when you tagged it but how never seen you measure ?

[@StanzFam]

We can guess them within a couple inches usually.

[@georgeb6079]

But do have to make a report to someone or place not sure how all that works

[@StanzFam]

We submit a tag and release card with a number that correlates to the tag. The billfish foundation is the organization we work with , and they keep all the data

Sounds like fun right? EXCEPT, for one very important thing. Be very very carefull as for the time of year you try to do that. There is no place on earth having more mosquitos than the Everglades.

[@Thomas_jefferson69]

That's the net you brought. What is your favorite cocaine?

[@Tyron-tj4rd]

why do you leave the hook in the first sharks mouth, that causes major health issues for them.

[@StanzFam]

Sometimes if we can’t safely remove the hook we leave them in the fishes mouth. We catch lots of sharks with multiple hooks in their mouth so it does not cause major health issues for them, think about it like a little lip piercing. Also some sharks shake hooks out when they start corroding
