Never seen a rabbit skinned and cleaned almost without a knife - very informative

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Thanks very much!!!

[@DogsUnlimitedDaycare]

​@@prima164 I must agree with you there hahahaha, I'm a chef and could not have him clean a rabbit in my kitchen...no man😂😂😂

[@flycrew]

Really like the catch, clean, cook concept with all the b-roll. Teaches the whole process and shows people what they are missing.

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Thanks so much for the kind words!! 👊👊👊

[@Broley0404]

Hahahahahaha I clicked the “safe” video in description just out of curiosity. Laughed right out loud. Oh and excellent rest of the video. A lot of useful info for beginners. And now im hungry for rabbit but it’s not season. Thanks a lot

[@fishlovme]

Great informational video on how to clean a rabbit. Great sound. I could even hear all of the "fluid" inside of the carcass as the guts were removed. Awesome! And boy did that look tasty!

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Yeah Tyler’s chewing is pretty special too is t it.

[@johntryl8009]

I've never seen something like this before ... I don't know that I'll ever need to know this, but I'm happy I've seen it done now. Thanks for sharing!

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Glad we could help out! Lol.

[@megastick9324]

I keep drier lint , coated in Vaseline , in pill bottles in my kit. Never know when you’ll get soaked or lose something. I also keep a small container of salt, and some instant coffee, just in case. Making food a little tastier and a warm beverage is good for the mind if you get lost. A small daypack or Fanny pack can hold some essentials. TP, first aid kit, etc.

[@gaylecoombs5510]

Some fonder memories I have is with my older cousins when I was 7 or 8 they was big rabbit hunters with dogs every time we would go out hunting at lunch time we would skin 3 rabbits cook over open fire the dogs would get the 1st rabbit and half and we would get the rest. Man those was some great times

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

That’s awesome man thanks for sharing!

[@fishlovme]

I clicked on the link and was disappointed. Back to viewing the rabbit hunt now!

[@colt10mmsecurity68]

***Rabbit gutting tip: Hold the hind legs in one hand and swing the rabbit in a 360 like a softball pitcher does toward home plate underhand. Doing it right, and the guts come flying out in front of you in one nice near package and all at once. It’s very clean once you get the hang of it. Easy.m

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

I’m going to give this a try. Don’t the ribs hold the guts in place? I’ve seen guys squeeze from the front end while the rabbit is still unskinned and everything shoots out the hind end.

[@colt10mmsecurity68]

@@PlayinHookySportfishing Yeah I forgot to add…. You have to slit the belly open first from the bottom of the rib cage down to where the belly skin stops near the pelvis area. Then grab the hind legs and VAAA-VOOOM! Let her rib in a circular swing and the centrifugal motion gets the majority to come flying out. Don’t be gentle, you’re not going to “break anything.” But you do want the organs and such to detach cleanly from the chest and belly cavity in one package. The first time or two you’ll figure it out for a good technique. I can do it where I aim and “fling” the innards to the ground several feet out in front of me.

[@PassivePortfolios]

Excellent catch, clean and cook video. In the South we have two kinds of rabbits - cottontails and swamp rabbits. The cottontails are the best tasting. The swamp rabbits, not so much. If you hunt near water, the swamp rabbits will be the most numerous. Away from water, it's all cottontails.

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Interesting! We only have cottontails in my area, but just a bit north we have snowshoe hare. They used to be far more common but I think coyotes have kind of wiped them out. I tried eating one once but I really screwed it up. I’d like another crack at it some time if I can find a few more snowshoes.

Love the rabbit hunting videos! Seems like you hunt rabbit frequently, if you always record it then I’m sure the rabbit hunting videos will do well! Love from Michigan, I’m still a packers fan even tho I live by Detroit and the lions.

[@colt10mmsecurity68]

I love hunting California cottontail rabbit. Every dove and quail season I also look for cottontails which dwell within the sage brush. Give me my Remington 870 Wingmaster 28 gauge and it’s good times! Delicious white meat, first dipped into an egg wash, then a 50/50 mix of flour/breadcrumbs. Add a little bit of salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder and into the HOT cast iron frying pan using “extra light olive oil” (used for high heat cooking). Deeeeelicious.

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Heck yeah! 👊👊👊

[@danielthompson9503]

Thanks Gents! it was interesting seeing the whole process from start to finish.

[@MrFreeGman]

I would have liked to see more of the hunting part. I'm a beginner bow hunter and I can't for the life of me figure out how to locate rabbits aside from accidentally stumbling upon them. Great video nonetheless, definitely learned a new way to skin a rabbit.

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Thanks for commenting! Really appreciate it! I’ve got some things in the works that might be right up your alley.

Being from Eastern NC, we use the vinegar mopping sauce for pork with the rabbit. Very good.

I always said rabbit tastes like you crossbred a pig to a chicken. There's a porklike quality, but also like chicken in some ways. I use it interchangably for both. I absolutely love it.

How long do you cook the rabbit over the open fire?

It took probably a half hour before it was done. The rabbit sat quite high off the flame so it wasn't too hot.

Dumb question but is their no dangers from eating rabbit with a tick on it ive always seen wild rabbits an wanted to eat one but always wondered

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

We didn’t even think twice about it. A quick Google search just now tells me there’s nothing to worry about. Thanks for watching and for your comment!

[@richmorlan2402]

Rocky mountain spotted fever and Rabbit fever. Both caused by tick bites, then transmitted to humans from the handling of the rabbit. Most rabbits are fine, but there are a few out there. Personally, I always were gloves and inspect the liver. I usually wear gloves when butchering any wild game. There are other things that can be transmitted to humans from handling infected animals body fluids. The meat is safe when thoroughly cooked, it's just the bodily fluids.

[@WendigoACTL]

you had me at "two men" and "there will be blood"

[@PlayinHookySportfishing]

Is this privately owned land? If not what kindve places do you go where you won't get the cops called on you? My states parks don't allow any kind of hunting (GA)

Hi Dave, This is my friend Tyler’s privately owned property. However, In Wisconsin there’s a website with a list of public land available for hunting. I’m guessing Georgia has something similar.
