Keepin' It Reel
США
Добавлен 30 май 2017
Welcome to Keepin' It Reel. I originally started videoing my fishing trips when my kids couldn't come, so they could watch me catch some fish and keep them interested, but it turns out they enjoyed the "fails" a lot more than the catches. So I started editing them to make them more entertaining, and they can access them better on RUclips, so here we are. Hope you enjoy. I start this channel a few fish short of 300 lifetime species, and if there is one thing I can say about catching new bucket list/life list species, it's research, travel and innovate. Three things. If you're lucky enough to live in the deep south, you don't have to travel far.

Took a weekend trip to Florida, looking ot do my first saltwater fishing in awhile. But first, on the way down, I made a quick stop in the tannin-stained fresh waters of the Sunshine State to try for some of the great native species that lurk in the area.

With Ozark Bass finally off the Bucket List and onto the Life List, I have a similar last shot at Strawberry Darter on the last leg of the trip. I caught one last year, but there was a valid question on the purity of the specimen, so I kept it on my daily species count, but took it off the Life List. It would be the last orangethroat complex darter I need west of Tennessee. SPOILER ALERT: Fish ...

hell yeah, let's go
Oh yeah another video 🎉
lol the audio of kids running up to throw rocks at your fishing spot
😆🤣Dude, it gets so crazy out there when kids are around. I love 'em to have all the fun in the world, but yeah, throwing rocks literally right on my line is wild. 😁
@@keepinitreel4306 I feel you man
Wauw men. Keep on microfishing. With a greet from Holland
Hello Holland! (I have some Dutch ancestors in my very wide genetic net). I'll keep doing it as much as I can, for sure.
Great video. I watch all your videos now. Your one of just a few guys who life list pretty consistently on RUclips where I'm not waiting for months to get a new video and I'm so here for it so thanks.
Oh no problem! I try to get out as much as I can. I'm not going to have as many outings next year (bunch of life changes coming), but I'll try to get as many trips and videos up as possible. The adventure is everything!
Hell yeah, lets go
😃
That was a huge madtom.
It's wild that it was only an average size among the ones at that spot. There were some so big they gave me a jump-scare me when I saw them.
hell yeah
My thoughts exactly! 😁
@@keepinitreel4306 LMK when you're out here, lol, I can get you on a few species I think
@@werftv4580 Oh definitely - thanks!
your old vids are coming up on my feed these days... giving you some watch time and a like or ten
Very cool. I cringe sometimes at how many bad IDs and how little I understood about range and the different species in my early videos. Hopefully it provides some comic relief. 😁
@@keepinitreel4306 That's alright, everyone started somewhere... you're a lot better at it than I am, lol
Congrats on that lifer darter..always great when they are aggressive towards the bait and a lifer! Very cool fish.
Absolutely. Having competition for the bait always seems to boost their aggression.
@@keepinitreel4306 Very true.
Love those sleepers. I haven't caught any of them yet. Still love those little flounder.
Yeah both are so cool. Unfortunately the sleepers are like 95% easier to find at night, which makes fishing a lot harder.
Looks like you had a good time wandering around at least, lol
Oh yeah. They don't call me The Wanderer for nothing. 😁
@@keepinitreel4306 lol... let me know when you come this way, I can get you a few I think...
Congratulations on the final catch! 👍
Thanks! That was my favorite darter of the trip by far.
Awsome vid as always❤
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed it.
nice vid
Thanks. It's funny seeing the old photo tank I used to use, and how bad I was at getting it wiped clean for clear pictures.
Nice sleepers! The critter twittering, toward the beginning of this vid., was a Carolina Wren. Cheers! 👍
Hah ha! Thanks. I'm getting worried about a tiny little bird. Sounds about right. 😁
Yeah I can't stand when people don't give you space when there's actually allot of space they can go rather than being right up on you. I could understand if there wasn't much space to begin with and allot of people where around but that beach looked like it had a bunch of space they could have went rather than being near the fishermen. Plus it's a hazard because you could accidentally hook someone because they didn't have the brain cells just to give you some space to throw your rod.
I agree. SO many people out there just not giving a crap that there's a whole world going on around them. I totally get that, especially on vacation, but when they are this obvious, and when they're putting their kids in danger with their lack of attention or care, it's seriously annoying.
Loved that leopard searobin! Very cool group of fish.
Me too. I was hoping it was a different species of searobin - there are so many of them.
@@keepinitreel4306 never caught a leopard. I've only caught striped and Northern searobin species. I might be able to get a bighead without too much travel.
@@johnaufderheide6117 I never caught one until a few years ago, and since my first, I haven't caught any other searobin species. Weird how that works sometimes.
@@keepinitreel4306 Location, Location, Location... 😉. We are in Maryland and have been catching those species from trips from VA to MA. Haven't caught one yet in GA or FL.
@@johnaufderheide6117 Ah that makes sense. I used to catch monster-sized Striped Searobin in the Long Island Sound. I often fished a double bucktail jig for flounder, and I'd get two of those big searobins on at the same time, opening their "wings" up against the current, pulling in opposite directions...the fights were pretty epic sometimes.
Zero thoughts involved in those parents.. lol
Truly....it just blows my mind sometimes
@@keepinitreel4306 here in CA it's the worst I have seen anywhere
@@werftv4580 It seems to get worse every year.
Really cool!
@@allkindsofoutdooractivities Thanks! These were sure fun to find and catch.
@@keepinitreel4306 I know what you mean!
Fun stuff... looks like a good time to me...
Definitely!
The spadefish were striking. Caught those off the Pink Pony Pub pier, in Gulf Shores, AL, when i was kid.
I didn't think much of them when I was a kid (probably because they usually weren't big), but as an adult I love them.
Loved the sabiki variety! Great way to make it happen when the fishing is slow.
Oh yeah, the sabiki has saved many fishing days.
Nice video
Thanks - I appreciate it. Glad it was enjoyable.
Congrats on the lifers! We love flatfish. My daughter caught a smallmouth flounder recently which I was reminded of seeing your bay whiff.
Oh man, I've seen pictures - really cool fish. Good for her!
Good job on the new species
Thanks! I've been wanting to find one of these for years. I'll have to just keep on trying to catch those tonguefish.
oh hell yeah.. another video
Hah-hah, I have a lot of them in the backlog right now. Ugh, gotta get to work editing. 😁
@@keepinitreel4306 lets go.. looking forward to it..
Love fishing FL. That nurse shark was the size that I would want to catch once. Get a photo and hope not to have to deal with any bigger ones😆. Can't wait to see what else you catch on this trip.
I really love nurse sharks for some reason. It wasn't what I was looking for on this trip, but they're really cool.
Yess your in florida🎉❤
Love my old stomping grounds.
looks like a good species session there...
Yeah, I didn't get many of the big fish I was after for lunches and dinners, but the species mix was pretty good.
@@keepinitreel4306 when in doubt, hammer the grunts, porgies, sail cats etc etc that plague the FL shorelines in the salt...
@@werftv4580 Yep, there is almost always something in the water that'll bite and keep you busy in Florida.
@@keepinitreel4306 not wrong there, probably headed to South Florida in Oct
@@werftv4580 Nice - good luck!
good stuff as usual
Thanks! It was a fun trip.
Just subbed Sweet vid man just started my own channel and love it keep up the good work
Thanks man - I got ya back. Tight lines!
Sweet bluespotted sunfish!
Thanks! It's been awhile since I've caught one, and it is one of the nicest marked I've caught.
hell yeah
I should have called this video "Florida Fright". 😁 Night fishing in this part of Florida is spooky because there are so many gators, coyotes, bears and wolves (there are still some red wolves in Florida - one literally bumped into me once when I was deep into the woods looking for a remote fishing pond). And they all get more active at night.
@@keepinitreel4306 no joke there.. FL is a wild place for sure... I miss living there plenty, though I never lived that far south, I fished it plenty as a young man for sure.... life is short, grind hard... lol
@@werftv4580 Hah, great advice to live by, for sure.
Congratulations on the new species! Long forward to your next video. 👍
Thanks! It was a lot of fun. Glad you enjoyed it.
heck yeah.. very nice as usual
Thanks! That Strawberry was the cherry on the top of the trip.
That looks just like a Warmouth.
They're very similar, but you can see the differences when they're side-by-side. And there are structural/morphological differences you have to zoom in on, like Warmouth having 3 anal fin spines, while Ozark Bass have 6.
oh hell yeah.. let me know when you come down here.. lol
Thanks! This species was so gratifying. Such a long drive, and so many failures.
Very nice work there
Thanks! Sometimes you have to get creative.
The darter diversity was very impressive! 6, 7 species? Where are you going from here? Or, are you already there?
Yep, 7 for the day, abut twice that for the trip. And I missed out on at least that many more. The darters are insane in Missouri-Arkansas. Day 4 is hopping across north Arkansas, looking for my first Ozark Bass.
Very nice!
Thanks! The fish really came through in this stretch of the trip.
A rainbow that lived up to its name! What a stunner! The madtom was cool as well. Looking forward to your next video. Where are you going from here?
Yeah those Rainbows can really bring it in the dazzling. I've got 2 more days of videos in the Ozark area Missouri/Arkansas.
Such a nice fish,. Nice video as always
Thanks! I wish I had brought a backup battery down the hill at the Stippled Darter spot.
It's amusing that the Ozark dsrters were more colorful than the rainbows.
Yeah it's wild how diverse and colorful the orangethroat species complex is.
9:30 Guinea Fowl
Oh yeah, that's it. I used to know that, totally left my memory. Thanks for identifying it!
heck yeah
What a beautiful shiner!
It's such a beauty
Wauw, Very nice, very nice shiner.
Thanks! It's really showing off the colors.
I tried that spot last Sat and got straight up skunked. I was using finesse worms and small whopper plopper. Think I need to get some inline spinners when I go back. Really fishy looking spot just no bites.
👍
Thanks!
