Fishing 17+ hours offshore Key Largo | Beer Battered Fish Catch N Cook

[@NEIL812]

Tell you why your channel is one of my favorites. It is because you not only post videos of good catches but also, you show your miss attempts, your break-offs, your troubles. You show real life as it happens even when your videos run long ( which to me is an advantage really) Keep'em coming, especially the long videos. Much love from your backyard. ( Homestead FL)

[@RichieLott]

Aniel Abreu I feel the same way. Normally I'd pass right on by, but keeping it real seems to be the trademark with him. Win or lose, It is what it is and he'll show exactly that.

[@keeganwinter8535]

And I love the way he celebrates and is thankful for every catch even if he has to throw it back.i never skip a vid and my favorite one was the swordfish one

[@kasefiles2190]

You're great!

[@dymalcartwright3696]

Yeah I love his vids for the seem reasons.

[@chuckhenry407]

I feel the same way. Keep them coming. your doing great.

[@usmcgt911]

The most POSTIVELY HAPPIEST KZbin fishing channel out there...even with 2 those Stroke problems !

[@SFFC-highlights]

[@joeyatl8940]

Love love love you. I’ve been hooked on all your videos and the World you live in. The Mangroves are awesome. Keep up the Excellent work Heiko you and the amazing Lady make a great team. I have a ton of questions. But I’ll keep watching. Have a Fantastic day buddy. My name is Joey I’m from Atlanta Ga

[@traceymays1974]

Good stuff . Your vids give an honest representation of what it takes to make it happen . Keep persevering.

[@topsalt1012]

I really like these long videos. Great for watching with popcorn.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

i like melting chocolate on popcorn. I think i'm going to do that right now

[@topsalt1012]

South Florida Fishing Channel also when you are out there do you leave a flat line with a live bait on it out.

[@haydenstarr8066]

I just cracked my phone. Your channel is the only reason why I even get on KZbin really. Don't mind me if I show up at your doorstep in the "islands" in a bit because I can't go an upload without watching you. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK BRO!!!!!👌👌👌

Sounds like some fish were deep! A tid-bit closer to the next moon and I'm betting you'll smoke pole em'! Warsaw have made a slight comeback in the past 2 years. A couple of NICE ones were caught last week around the ole humps with less fishing pressure since the hurricane.. Can't wait to see round two! Thanks for sharing and happy holidays. Fish on!

[@outdooraddictiontv5325]

When you dropped the coffee I Burst out laughing

[@ivansuarez3987]

i just cant stop watching you. i caught two sharks during my life like the one shown for my profile pic your one of the best fishing youtubers out there you showed me fishing rigs for deep droping and other cool things keep up the good work. i will deffinitly recomend to my freinds and famly we live in the keys as well

[@kvartekmedia]

Good video brother 🙌🏽 Fellow Floridian here 🙌🏽

[@gavin7261]

I was waiting for you to post for so longggg. But of course I can understand it’s because of family and holidays

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I'm back in action now! I'll be here over new years too. FISH FISH FISH

[@urbanangler1576]

I love that you guys were watching Reel Time Florida Sportsman while frying up those mangos.

[@BarryAdams777]

“Dude, the bugs living in your dreads attracts bigger bugs which eventually attract larger species & maybe we can catch a juicy snapper, some yellowtails or a juicy mangrove!” LOL

[@SeaSquatchFishing]

Those "juicy" mangos saved the trip! Fun video to watch too.

[@StreetbeatDesigns67]

Great video as usual Heiko!

[@jayweathers9295]

Guessing this is going to be another good video ;P keep it up even though i can't go saltwater I love watching catch n cooks and learning new things

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Cheers Jay!

[@amazingnature1885]

you are skillful guy !! i wish i could see other video !!

[@grandmamaspif6094]

Manliest cup of coffee I ever seen

[@KylesHooked]

Watch videos all the time and comment as well. But, I have never had a comment back from ya.. Lol. Maybe because I'm a smartass. 🤣. Still a fan.. & I do love how you & your boy never gave up & fished all day & night.. That's fishing.. Mangs are the best of snapper.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Hey Kyle I try to answer as many people as possible. So hard to fish, edit video and run my company at the same time. I wish days were longer! Cheers man! When there are no ladies on the boat we will fish ALL day/night if we have too

[@KylesHooked]

Right on bro. Just busting your balls. Keep the videos coming.😎

[@chrish5096]

I’ve been watching your videos for about a week now and overall really enjoy them. The one thing I’ve noticed, however, is that you very much dislike buying fuel. Lol. So I have a few tips on how you can save some gas and money. 1. Try trimming your engine up a bit while underway. This will help because you will notice your speed and rpm increase therefore allowing you to let of the throttle a bit to maintain the same speed as before 2. Consider purchasing a gas caddy or just a few fuel cans and filling up on land. If you are concerned about the ethanol, (Which I wouldn’t be because how often you use your boat) just use a stabilizer, such as sta bil to counter balance the ethanol. Then if you are low after a while fill up at the dock. This is just my advice but heck, what do I known I’m only 14 but these are things I’ve learned over the years of boating/fishing from my father and neighbors. Great vid btw

[@chrish5096]

Also if u don’t already know how to trim boats.com has a great video

[@ryanvanfleet5281]

Got a pay to play.

[@chrish5096]

Ryan Van Fleet I understand that completely but y throw cash away when you can save

[@goodkarmasportfishing5053]

All good... Great tips.

[@windowclean100]

❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Fl-Pride]

Addicted to your videos! New sub here 👍🏼. Man I miss FL

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Thanks!

[@michaelross5674]

Love that cup and kurig coffee thing ....where did u get thing for coffee grounds.... And I have a cat just like yours but I have a girl MIDNIGHT..AND SHE IS ONLY A YEAR OLD

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I ordered it off Amazon =)

[@lukemoore8811]

Relatively new sub but ive watched most of your videos! keep up the good work and happy fishing!

[@lukemoore8811]

also i like that you show those 4 or 5 little mangrove clumps in every video! its like a book mark!

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Thanks! What are the mangrove clumps you're talking about? I'll be sure to keep adding them

[@lukemoore8811]

2:50! Its kind of a dumb thing i just appreciate the journey!

[@williamhommel4252]

Subby so jealous! Subby want fried fish fritters! Subby want Florida blue water! I can't complain too much, though. We have lots of good fishing here in Sconnieland, USA. Offshore just looks like an A-1 First Class Blast! ALL THE BEST FROM THE FROZEN TUNDRA! GO PACKERS!

[@paulvargas2467]

new to the channel love the life style

[@chrissechelzski8340]

Love the swordfish vids

[@dylanattard3240]

GOOD JOB FOR GETING ONE

[@reynaldobalisi9008]

Fish-on bro, power na power

[@myketo-fastinglifestyle5504]

Sword fever 🤒😂😂very important whe u drop, boat has to be moving North with the current the u ether turn around face South with the bow since u have an open transom, you do this to avoid tangles between lead line and leader, Good luck brotha 💪🎣

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

yea I will try this next time. Cheers!

[@gavin7261]

Man that looks so fun and relaxing cooking burgers on a boat at night

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

It won't be the last time! It's better than any therapy =)

[@Mrimtoreal]

more night stuff. love the long vids. try going for tuna!!

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

yea i'll be trolling ballyhoo again real soon

[@florocks7761]

You will catch more yellow tail if you free line for them. Happy fishing.

[@timmythompson76522]

You should add green lights around the bottom of your boat brings in bait Wich will bring in big fish

[@Bawdog4]

Over here in Louisiana to catch mangroves we hook up next to the rigs and free line little pinfish and catch hogs all day long, you guys rig fish over there?

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

yea, we just didn't have any live bait. We honestly were not planning on fishing the reef for snapper originally lol

[@randalllangston79]

Watching one of your previous videos I noticed a bag that you had that can store large fish do you recommend one planning on a swordfishing trip to the Keys in August. Will be staying in Big Pine. We've never swordfish before with the exception of a trip to Louisiana on a charter boat that kind of showed us the ropes of how to do it I've been aching to try it ever since on my own. We have a 25 foot Wellcraft. I think it's big enough to do the trick but we don't have an ice box big enough to hold the fish if we catch one. just looking for some advice. PS if you're interested in a swordfish and trip August the 6th give me a shout.

[@dyyl29z20]

man i live i miami makes me wanna go out fishin in the keys we dont have a boat its pretty rare to go out.

[@RalphBarton-fishing]

Awesome job

[@bluewater_1142]

Is bringing it up off the bottom 70 ft normal practice ? I thought I remember watching a video of someone explaining how the weight bouncing up and down on the bottom from the boat created the noise needed for the Swordfish to come hunt. Lights + noise = curiosity. But I also understand not wanting to get stuck and loose such expensive lead. Keep posting these videos as I try to learn to shorten my learning curve when the new boat gets here lol Man, hopefully a Warsaw is next

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Someone told me to do it, but next time i'll try keeping it lower. I'm going to go all our nothing next week for swordfish

[@bluewater_1142]

Im just throwing it out there. Hopefully you don't come back asking for a couple hundred dollars in lead lol. Side note- I know its a lot of money but maybe one day you can take a charter with Nick Stanczyk out of Bud n Marys and see if he would let you vlog the trip. He is my sword guru but since theres not many videos with him ( huge plus for the channel lol ) its just left to social media posts.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

yea I've seen his posts. He kills it catching swords. I'll shoot him a msg.

[@crobinson3128]

Been waiting for a new upload.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Lots of footage coming this week! It's been hard past week with christmas!

[@jerryadams5401]

Ever catch gators? Didn't find in search. Love your blog

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

nope never. But just for you I will! heh. Gator Season 2018. I'm coming for you. I'll mention you Jerry Adams

[@HDZGaming819]

When you see the fish is fight really hard go lighter on the retrieve so that you stop popping the leader, also using a light on the humps might help too.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

yea, I will go back there very soon and be more loose with the drag. Mabye use a longer #250 mono shock chord. Like 100ft this time instead of 10-20ft.

[@HDZGaming819]

10-20ft should be fine but maybe add a swivel to the shock mono. so it would be : braid,swivel,mono,swivel, then the rig.

[@portageediver8252]

Just Tried that Yuengling Beer for the first time when i visited the keys last summer super bummed they dont sell it on the West Coast. Great Vids!! sub'ed

If I'm not mistaken, that's a thresher, or a white tip... I may be wrong.

[@swfloridareeladdiction8129]

Hey Heiko, I emailed you a couple links to some forecast sites a week or so ago. You might already have had them but wanted to see if you got them? They were NOAA links to wave height predictions by the hour for specific locations, such as the humps and Floyd's wall. I sent it under my company email so it might have been spammed?

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

i'm looking for it. Not sure if I received them.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I've been looking for it but not finding it.

[@swfloridareeladdiction8129]

I guess I sent it on the 11 of Dec. I guess it was a little longer than a week or so. LOL, I sent it again.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Got it

[@TheOffshoreShow]

Once you deploy your lead for deep dropping for swords then you head down the current with your engine around 7 knots for 500 feet. Then you stop and let your lead reach up to your boat. This saves tangles

[@dean512]

is that the tiny net challenge???

[@marceltaylor2516]

liked your video keep up the good work

[@baked4113]

Cool video man, but just a suggestion/question: Could you put time stamps in these larger videos in the description?

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

Ah gotcha, yea i'll see if I can do something like that in the next video.

[@williamvaldemar4154]

South Florida fishing channel let's go fishin and burn one.

where do you dock your boat I fish key largo and stay at the moose lodge I am from key west love your show

[@danielborgia6832]

Hi I've been watching your videos for a few months now I live in Tampa fl I have a sea hunt bx 22 but going offshore here 30 miles your only in 100ft of water I want to come down fishing with you!!!

[@thebeardedfishermanfl8766]

I live over in st.pete! I run a j16 so I never go offshore :(

[@maverickhunter5057]

Florida Sport Fishing has a whole seminar on daytime swordfishing

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I'll check it out thanks man

[@dilloncwwaters4442]

Is it not wasting enormous amounts of gas keeping the boat running the entire time?

[@taylorpaoni2128]

You need a tripod or clamp mount for making coffee 🤣

[@FishingLikeALocal]

Love Your Videos Man! I Recently Started My Own Fishing Channel Out Of South Florida And Couldn't Wait To Subscribe And Be Able To Say Thank You For Showing Creating These Great Videos ! Videos Like This Is Where I Get The Title For My Channel! Thanks For Keeping It Reel And Keeping It Authentic ! Great Stuff!

[@vicbanks9079]

I dunno man, I like the try, but the electric reel, and the wayyy overseasoned batter. Dunno, ya wont know the fish from the batter.

[@awesomegamer3561]

How fast do you go about on your boat

[@doloahcnig5231]

Long day man

[@bubblef8073]

Please can you post the gps coordinates for this spot 30 miles out?

[@jbettss]

Your channel is pretty bad ass I must admit, and the reason I’ve been asking a couple questions about your engine is because I have a mercury 150 that has been giving me problems left and right. It’s a 2001 and I know exactly what problems you had with yours. It’s pretty nerve-racking, but unfortunately, just like you, I would love to have a new engine but they’re so damn expensive right now. Oh and what do you think about using OptiMaxx oil over the penzoil? I read a ton of stuff saying the OptiMaxx oil is legit but then again the Pennzoil seems to work as well. Just curious,

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

yea man, the 2 strokes are great WHEN running. It sucks leaving the engine on when deep dropping. It's so loud and smoky, but turning it off could end in a disaster if it decides to not fire up again...

[@yamahapeanut44]

Two strokes are so simple and usually very reliable, at least in the MX world. I did see a new Zuk 200hp four stroke advertised in south florida for $11,800. I didnt call them it was in a hotel magazine.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

yea I love my buddies 2 stroke Kawasaki. BRRRAAAAAPPPPPAPAPAPA. lol

[@Guerrilla727]

South Florida Fishing Channel Getting a string of lights to hang underneath the boat would make the snapper go crazy. It would look good for the camera too.

[@hookednrolling2009]

hi I have a 08 300 etec as long as the oil is tc-w3 rated you can run any oil in it I have motor computer running tc-w3 that is just under break in oiling ratio evinrude has xd50 and xd100 oil which is leanratio if injector runs lean it will wipe out cyclinder I bought a used 250 fict it blew up 30 hrs later save your money by a engine trade in with warranty that is what I did haven't had problem you r carbed so add three oz per gallon that is a little extra thanks keep lines tight john

[@Bruiser38]

Fish for seventeen hours, clean fish, cook fish, and eat fish while watching Reel Time. Wonder what you dream about. FISHIN!

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

hah that's funny that you could tell we were watching a fishing show lol. Yea all we do is fish

[@Brock_Landers]

See man, I'd love to bring my Penn Battle II 2000 and my Favorite Defender 7' Medium one-piece and fish for snapper. I'd also bring my Shimano Stradic 2500FK on my 7'6" medium heavy rod and tear up some cobia, snook, and redfish on the flats. I have a couple 8' Berkley Catfish medium heavy rods with some Shakespeare 7000 size reels and an Anvil Smash heavy rod with a huge trolling reel and 80 lb braid on it that would give some grouper and bug snapper a fight.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I just made some foam plugs for my transom, will see if that helps tomorrow. Yea the ttop folds. Shoot me an email and i'll send you the contact of where it was done [e-mail]

[@MrHunterkill90]

[@iamremyAdventures]

That’s like 3 different salt products 👀 👀 👀

yea that was def. a mistake on my part

[@codyhead737]

Do you not trust your boat motor at all ?why do you leave it running the entire time

[@billpugh1548]

Why is it that you keep using mono and loosing your fish?

[@gimmysola9553]

WHAT DID YOU FORGOT THIS TIME ????

[@kasefiles2190]

You're great

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

thanks =) So are you!

[@carls.6746]

From the batter I would have dipped them into cornbread crumbs.

[@dragon_skyshadow4484]

Why dont you keep them alive intil you going back?

[@Davysgravy]

Losing all those fish was hard to watch😫😣😥 Oh well live and learn I'm sure you'll figure it out. At least you got a nice mess of Snapper for dinner not so bad.

[@dennismills685]

Bro, you need a new motor! Yamaha all the way!!!! No oil, sips gas compared to the 2 cycle you're running now…..win win.

[@dennisbell2583]

Lol Rick Scott ad in the beginning for a catch and cook, if the gulf/florida stays in his hands there won't be anymore catch and cooks. All the fish would be dead.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

hah oh gosh LOL. Sorry I don't pick the ads they run =(

[@hookednrolling2009]

heilko get a jump box off ebay that what my son did we used once motor wouldn't start you can get from napa too

[@TheRubenGalvan]

Why do you not just chum the waters about 20 feet deep around a reef, and catch you a bunch of Snapper?

[@TheRubenGalvan]

I know you are wanting swordfish, but after spending so much time with no luck, catch you about $400 worth of Snapper, or grouper.

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

I have caught tons of snapper and grouper my whole life. Swordfish is a new horizon of adventure. I love putting meat on the boat but I also love the sport of running out and going after new species.

[@hookednrolling2009]

shark says I smell a fish but I don't see one

[@jamarhoffer]

Loose the black socks. It's the Florida Keys!

howcome all the fish that get away are all ways monsters lol

That's the name of the game =)

[@dustindavenport463]

I don't think you're supposed to keep Porkfish. Not that you did, but you said they were good pan fried. They aren't porgies They are considered ornamental reef fish

[@SouthFloridaFishingChannel]

porkfish are a type of grunt, they are an unregulated species.

What orange jugs? Thanks for trying to help man, just not sure what exactly you're talking about

[@dean512]

you mean gaffs not harpoons right!!!!!

[@brandonwhitson1611]

You dont need salt with Everglades seasoning cause it has salt in it allready. Its the best seasoning out there and is a complete seasoning, you may use pepper but no salt with Everglades, also you used way way to much Everglades, its pretty powerful so i bet that fish was awful, like eating pure salt rocks, maybe you were drunk or high, i know from experience that its best not to cook when drunk or high, stick to drive through or the microwave for those times, i once went camping and we all ate super raw steaks and burgers without knowing till i looked at the leftovers that morning, i puked for days
