It’s remarkable how our primal instincts are rewired and made to adapt by the system of fisheries regulations. From that first visceral vibe the hunter feels at encountering a 15/20lb prey item to the casual disregard of that fish because it’s off limits. I’m not a fan of all the fishing laws, but I am a fan of the sustainable fisheries we have because of them. What a blessing for you sharing your life and inspiring others. The way you cherish and gratitude you convey speaks volumes to your character. I wish you continued success. Thank you for sharing this!
its very interesting thats for sure! it's a strange concept I agree but without them the greed of humans would ruin the resource unfortunately. thanks so much for tuning in happy to hear you enjoy the videos!
Can’t get enough of these vids man! Ready for that “how you got there” video to drop! Keep up the good work! Stay safe brotha!
working on it! want it to be a good one! gotta dig through some old photos!
That was my life in high school living on Marco Island, the Ten Thousand Islands were at my backdoor. Now at 65 living in Pa. I can only live through you Aaron, thank you my brother!
hear thats a lovely place but never been! love to hear you enjoy the vids!
If I could spend the rest of my days prospecting those little cuts and catching mango's for dinner... I'd die a happy man. Until then, I'll just watch you. 👍
amen! thats what Im going for! hope to one day know them all!
Thanks for taking us with you. I've lived in the Pompano bch. Deerfield bch. area for 53 yrs. Have to say you are living my dream. Always said to the wife when I quit working I'd love to live on a houseboat in the keys and have a small boat for fishing. When I was a child my grandparents would take me to their trailer in morehead N.C. They knew I loved to fish. Got a lot of great memories. Going to hit the subscribe love the content.
welcome to the channel! love to hear you enjoy the channel!
Won't miss one of your video's Aaron. You're calm nature and skill put you at the top of RUclips outdoor creators in my book.
Really appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
From catching a fish on a hook alone, to the goliath, to the ray, to that massive school of baitfish, I can't get enough of this stuff. Great video!
so glad you enjoyed it! thanks for coming along!
These are the best type. Back country in the back yard. Love it
never gets old!
First I want to thank you for letting me live vicariously through you in your videos that was some of the most beautiful underwater structures amazing abundance of life that those mangroves hold thank you for sharing my friend
happy to share! happy to hear you enjoy them!
These are some of my favorites when you dive right out back of your home. Great content as usual. I would love to free dive in the mangroves. Thanks dibs on bottom
love to hear it! absolutely love it back there!
These style of videos are actually my favorite of all
Love to hear it!
For anyone who’s never lived in the Florida Keys, Aaron and his videos absolutely epitomize the actual experience. If he comes off as calm, capable, simple, and real, that’s his Keys showing.
haha love it! thanks for tuning in!
@@KeyWestWaterman You’re a legend, man.
Speak softly and carry a luxurious, salty beard. May your lines be tight, your beer be cold, and your woman affectionate. #keyslife
Mondays can’t come quick enough, always anticipating your uploads! Documenting your start to finish of captaining a charter would be neat if you ever need a video idea! Thanks again for the videos Aaron !
always appreciate feedback! thanks for tuning in!
Great video. Can't wait for the back story of the legend of key west waterman 💯
Haha thanks for watching!
LOOOOOL....Throws 10' net perfectly without effort!! Just another day in the Keys....🔥
lol, that was an accident, normally its a banana.
Man you're so lucky.. I'm in Texas but I'm from the islands of Micronesia and I miss all that...thats life your living
wouldn't change it for the world! thanks so much for tuning in, would love to visit there some day!
I love Mondays. I’m a food fisherman like you but I could just snorkel those cuts all day long. Your jewfish reminded me of last week at the beach. Had a baby flounder hanging with me. Dropped a shrimp to him. To little to get the hook so I wasn’t concerned. Had it almost coming out of the water for it. Went on for a bit. Thanks for my Mondays.
love it back there! thanks for coming along!
Clear water and beautiful spot for fishing and diving.i like it 👍
glad you enjoyed it!
Great video Aaron. Thank you for sharing 🚤🐟🤜🤛💯🏝🎶🎵🌊🐟🚤🌾
Thanks for watching as always!
Should I start calling you Gimpy…haha Noticed the knee brace.
lol getting old! fishing every day will kill ya!
@@KeyWestWaterman son you ain’t old I’m 62 and I ain’t old yet…
The steady snapper fishing / spearing for dinner close to you're house is awesome!! Up here in Estero Bay we have alot of Mangroves but most of them are on the small side usually ,, Best snapper day I had was outgoing tide with tons of bait close to the mouth of New Pass ,,, Saw something blasting the bait on top and floated a bait through nailed a keeper snapper !! Ended up getting our 3 man limit of 15 nice keeper Mangroves !! That was best snapper day for me up here In Bonita Springs we definitely don't have the consistent big keeper inshore Mangroves like u in KW!! What a great food producing fishery 💯 for you !!!
Love to hear it! Thanks so much for watching!
I love the way the light bounces off the mangrove beds. Straight beams of beautiful light dancing on the bottom. Some ripples of light from the surface. Need more of that!
really is a magical place!
another day in paradise! excellent video and great dive. for someone who is not close to water i sure feel like i am tagging along, cheers!
haha love to hear that!
My best friend, Nice video... Beautiful place Enjoy watching this video... Have a nice day.
glad you enjoyed it! thanks for watching!
Epic Aaron,
Being from West Palm Beach and haven't been back in 40 years , knowing how the population has grown in that time. Its nice to see there are still tranquil spots like still existing. And it doesn't hurt being around the corner from your home either. This is a dream for a lot of people. Video was perfect from start to finish.
its my dream through and through! thanks so much for tuning in!
Another hit vid Aaron, as I stated before, you bring to people a some peace and relaxing time, showing at the same time how much fun one can have with so little if you are in the right place !! Blessings..
so glad you enjoy the videos! thanks so much!
Love your vids man. You know, I'm from the south of Germany and haven't been in the ocean a lot of times, maybe like once a year when I'm on vacation. But ever since my dad told me about the time when he used to live in Gran Canaria a few decades back, living on fish and octopus that he shot himself with his harpoon this topic has been stuck in my head. So finding your channel has been one of the best things happening to me this year and I'm extremely thankful that you keep putting these out so constantly. They relax me while at the same time educating me and I wasn't able to find that in other, similar videos. So yeah, keep doing what you're doing and thanks again Aaron! :))
really love to hear that! thanks so much for the feedback. this is the kind of stuff that keeps me going!
From one waterman to another waterman, one video rolls into the next and I’m glued! Great job all the way around.
Haha love to hear it!
Wow!! I can’t get enough of these beautiful spots. We use to catch redfish in a place called Cape Haze. It’s a huge Jessie of mangos that stretch for miles across from Burnt Store Marina in Boca. Throwing spoons tight under the mangos. We dove one time here and my goodness it looked the same as here where you are. I mean just sooo much life. Many more gag groupers. Juveniles. That’s where they go to grow up. All the life does. It’s a huge nursery for them before heading out to the reefs. I’m very surprised that you don’t see anymore than you do while spear fishing these areas. Do you ever see any gags? Plenty of Jew Fish for sure. They are eating everything in their oaths that’s for sure. I have to say my brother loves watching these with us. I cast your vids onto our 70” Visio with surround sound and we watch and watch and watch your stuff. I’m the guy that takes care of my brother man. I spoke to you the other night and sent you an email. I’m very serious about maybe finding a place a lot like yours somewhere down there. We did a fence for a guy that owns a real estate company there in Key West. I often wonder if your wife may work for them. They live here in Ridge Manor Fl right now but are in the process of selling the real estate company down there in Key West. I’m going to try to talk them into maybe selling me one of their places down there sooner than later I’m hoping. I may put a large chunk of change on something down there while I can. Any suggestions would be great man. Don’t want to commercial fish at all. Just would love to eat fresh fish everyday for the rest of my life that’s for sure. I am a native Floridian brown and raised here in St. Joe Fl. It’s close to San Antonio Fl. Keep shooting those mangos and the videos ok. Really would like to see you shoot some gags. I know there are plenty around those mangos as well. Just have to look for them of course. Why are you spending so much fuel to go out spear fishing in that 60’ of water when you can hit these 8 to 15’ of water to shoot these gags. I notice you shoot mostly blacks or carbos. Is there a reason for this? I know up here in HOMOSASSA and Bayport we find these gags in anywhere from 6’ to 20’. Much less fuel and just have to keep your numbers close to your heart for sure. Thanks again and how about showing us some shallow water gags on the Gulf side of course. Thanks again for everything. Love the way you do things man.
i'll be honest I wish I had enough time to read all of this, I try my best to keep up with every single comment but its becoming quite a tall task! can't thank you enough for watching and taking the time to share!
Every time I watch one of your videos, it reminds me that I need to move back as soon as I get the chance. Love what your doing man it’d be a privilege to see you out on the water someday.
love to hear that! thanks so much!
Aaron, this video was so cool. It was exciting to watch that grouper chasing the snapper. Nice shot on the mangrove along with a reminder, keeps your hands away from their mouths. Stingray, starfish, grouper. This one had it all. Your vids are the best. Thanks again for letting us come along.
so happy you enjoyed it! and yea it got me! haha thanks for coming along!
One of the many great. Concern is sizing the catched fishes keeping it more populative water inhabitants
thanks for watching!
Just discovered your videos, they’re extremely peaceful. Watching before bed is the best way to unwind, right after smoking. Rest assured you’re far happier than most. Wish you the best of luck on your channel, Aaron!
love to hear it! thanks so much for watching!
Mostly peaceful.
The Mangrove is always welcome at my dinner table!!!! Great tasting and versatile.
haha right!
Classic, thanks so much for taking us on your adventures, you are the real deal!!!
thanks for coming along!
Clear water and great bites, can't complain on days this wonderful glad we got to enjoy it with you!
thanks for coming along!
You do have a good life Dibs.Thanks for another great video. What s great day doing. What you enjoy. Thanks for making a better dsy.
thanks for coming along!
Thanks for all your videos. I fished the keys for the first time during the middle of May this year, and they were a huge inspiration (and source of how to). We had a lot of bad weather and only got a few days offshore/on the reefs, so we ended up eating a lot of amazing dinners from mangrove snapper, sheepshead, and yellow jack shot in/around the mangroves. The Keys are a really special place, and I hope to make it back soon.
love to hear that! thanks so much for tuning in!
Beautiful view …👍😍❤️
love it out there!
Love the underwater footage, absolutely beautiful. When you say that you live in Paradise you aren't kidding. I am looking forward to the next video, thanks bro!
its my version of paradise! glad you enjoy it, thanks so much for watching!
Great videos you've been posting. I like to fish and always wanted to spearfish since I'm also a diver. You make it look easy but I'm sure that's not the case. I like the way you care for your harvest to preserve freshness. Keep up the good work Waterman!
I won't lie its not easy! but only one way to learn! glad you enjoy the vids thanks so much for watching!
You,
Just wow . You are blessed . Be well , I’m glad to see that you are aware enough to stop and smell the roses.
I am! didn't come easy but living the life I dreamed of!
Fantastic video Aaron. Love your content and look forward to everything from deep dives to the shallow water ones. I’ll be in the ocean tomorrow morning but it won’t look anything like your backyard! Have a great week.
really love to hear that! thanks for tuning in, and thats better than any day on land!
Awesome video! Thanks again for bringing all of us along with ya on your adventures !
thanks so much for watching!
Some of the best segments are those in the skinny cruising the Mangrove Jungle!!👀🤿
truly love it back there, never gets old
Hey brother Aaron this was Awsome just chill and relax no agenda just chill with you… I have to rewind so much n pause cause I got two lil ones running a muck over here hahaha… anyways brother always great to see you

glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for taking us along!! Always a joy after a day at the office... Cheers !!
thanks for tuning in!
Hey there Aaron, thanks for the local video's in your back yard "Water Oasis". People now want to come with you and catch n' cook dinner in the Key's. I'd enjoy it, so many others must feel the same way. Keep having fun, that is what you are selling here!
haha glad you enjoy them! and im trying! thanks so much!
Always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!! Thank you for sharing.
love to hear it! thanks for watching!
Love the spearfishing clips. I'm going to Manitoba to snorkel spearfish walleyes in a wk; first time after two yrs off from covid .So stoked! Your hunting there is a lot like our freshwater hunting; fast action when it happens, with limited vis in green/ tan waters. Keep on making the most of it.
love to hear it! and shoot em up, hope you have a good time!
Ran into Aaron today as he was hopping in his truck. Thank you for taking the time to chat with me and for the pic! Love the style of videos you are putting out! Can't wait for the next time being welcomed back underwater! :-)
Ivan from SD
haha happy to brother! really appreciate you saying hey. and for the feedback! means more than you know!
Yet another great video, Thanks for the breakaway from our reality to yours, what a welcome relief.
thanks for coming along!
Always worth watching!
thanks for tuning in!
My grandfather would take me out of Tavernier to catch the majua. He would deep fry them and add some salt. They were amazing!
Majua?
ive heard all about it! me and will were gonna try to do it!
After a long day of work this is the best
love to hear it!
Thank you for showing us that beautiful eco system down there in those mangroves. Awesome video
happy to! thanks so much for coming along!
Love these videos with all the natural sounds without background music that drowns them out. Love ya work mate
glad you enjoy them! thanks for tuning in!
From Australia Hi Aaron, you have the perfect boat for the type of fishing and diving you do. Thanks for this adventure. Cheers mate.
its a sweet machine thats for sure! glad you enjoyed it thanks so much!
Love Mondays at 6!!!!!!
haha thanks for coming!
Gheenoe is the star of the show. Love that thing man.
I won't argue that!
Hey, Aaron 👋 Those mangroves are so cool! That is what I call an awesome day off🙌🏻 Enjoy 🐟 dinner 🍽
love them! thanks so much for watching as always!
absolutely love it. so peaceful….so fun. keep the content coming!
more on the way!
Keys is like a giant maze. Had so much fun watching your vids man. As always, one of the best in this genre, I learn a lot just from watching ang listening to you. Cheers kwwm keep them coming😁
it really is! love it back there, and glad you enjoy the vids!
That water looked amazing !!!
What a way to spend the day...
def was!
Great shots Aaron! Glad you got that grouper and all those bait fish from underwater. I’m a rod and reel fisherman and appreciate the effort you made to catch those fish. Cruising through those narrow channels was well filmed and edited. Keep up the good work.
glad you enjoyed it! thanks so much for tuning in!
Another great video Sir. Then the grouper came along and made it twice as awesome.
haha thanks for watching!
Still love that even after fishing when you go to spear you welcome us back under water. Thank you for the adventure
happy to!
Was fun to watch that grouper following you around like a puppy. Another great video...almost over Covid so thanks for the 'medicine' vids. Hope all is well with you and yours.
haha funny fish, thanks for tuning in!
Loving It, Brother Loving it.
Thanks so much!
Showing that gheenoe love again! Another awesome video....keep up the good work brother. Fish on!
that thing never gets old! thanks for tuning in!
Thanks for bringing us along!
happy to!
Like it a lot, waterman. Can’t say I ain’t envious.
thanks for tuning in!
Awesome content. So glad to see the popularity of these vids, not having to pay 200$+ for gas just to make a fantastic Monday segment. 85k and rising quickly! Congrats man!
haha im glad y'all like them too!
I already feel relaxed watching the footage underwater. Love the boat too
love to hear it!
dude I love your channel 🙌 always beautiful man I love the keys
love to hear it! thanks so much for tuning in!
Best fishing show doesn't act like the best fishing show. Great video.
just trying to have some fun!
Love these vids Aaron, I deeply enjoy doing the same types of things where I’m at in FL. You should get a 2500 size reel on a ultra light fast action rod for doing this, makes it even more fun! Alittle drag action on the small mangos is a lot of fun.
I had planned on it, trying to not buy more fishing gear if you know what I mean 😂 I have way too much already
@@KeyWestWaterman I know what you mean, but just throwing it out there! lol
I’m one of many living vicariously though you and your videos. I’m fortunate to live in Punta Gorda Florida, so I have access to mangrove “tunnels”that I enjoy on a SUP, but it’s tough to beat the Keys 😎 I’ll join others with a request of your journey that took you to living in the Keys.
Keep up the good work !
They sure are a blast! Thanks for tuning in!!
Great video, I actually like the cooking segments at the end, but still great seeing the "No Agenda" take. Definitely looking forward to the video on how you got started in spearfishing, bet that was a journey! Just came back from Florida day before yesterday, caught some snapper but hit a slew of trout for the table. Friend landed a 50ish lbs. Goliath Grouper, he took a couple of pics with it and set it free. I hooked a shark and it played with me a bit then snapped my line. I absolutely love Florida fishing, up there with fishing in Alaska, which I spent six years up there in the Army.
I try to get them in just crazy busy lately! didn't have time to film! thanks so much for tuning in!
Another great video thanks Aaron
thanks for watching!
Also question do ever film the People you take out fishing, or do you have to ask them if they want to be on you tube ? Just curious lol
Ive had everythin over the years from rebuilt jon boats to my current 2022 24' center console but man your vids have me really wanting a smaller boat again! Been looking at Gheenoes to rebuild so I can justify it to the wife since we JUST bought a new boat lol. Im gonna blame you when I bring one home HAHAHAHAH Super stoked for you guys making that keys dream come true. The wife and I are working on it. Hoping to be down there in the next few years but like you said, we're not trust fund babies so its a struggle. Thanks for all the great content
haha its not my fault! and stick with it and you will get there! make sure to call my fiancé Madeleine when you do! thanks so much for tuning in!
@@KeyWestWaterman we’ll definitely reach out to her when the time comes!
You really have the best life bro. watching your videos makes me feel great having all that stuff you have, even though I know it is very expensive that small boat you have is like for me if I can achieve to build that which is really my goal. It is my best life ever. Live your life to the fullest bro! Congrats.
doing my best to enjoy my time here! didn't come easy but was worth every second!
I love this guy for sure. Just the way he does things man. You know the small boat he has they are abundant here in Fl. Most people use them here on the rivers. But make very good trout boats if your not taking but one other with you. Very easy in and out as well. Even for a big man like myself. I just love his little makeshift steel bowl as a grill right on top of the water. Pretty bad ass if you ask me. You have got to watch this one.
You called it. “Snapper” is the name for a reason. Lol thank you for sharing.
lol you aint lying!
Hey Key West Watrrman you have a Good Life. Good Blessed You.
im tryin! thanks for watching!
Just wanted to say how much me and my wife enjoy watching your videos! We cannot watch others because they do not bleed, brain and gut like you do!! My wife is like, “they do not know anything”! LOL Keep them coming! When we are down in Key West next time, we hope to meet you and Paddlin Madeline!
haha I love it! thanks so much for tuning in and taking the time to share! 🙏
Nice video Capitan👏🎣🐟. Thank you
thanks for watching!
That Goliath, out of no where was awesome.
haha right!
Discovered your channel recently and have subscribed.
Absolutely love your mellow narrative and the pace of the videos. I feel like I am there.
Keep up the great work. I will be watching. :-)
welcome to the channel! so glad you enjoy it! thanks so much!
Rock and roll on the gheenoe, Aaron! Looking forward to another episode of KWW!!!!
haha thanks so much!
This video is great. Thank you for sharing your adventures in the Key West back country. Had you had some pin fish in with the live bait at that first spot, you’d be able to avoid all the smaller mangs. 😆😊
haha right!
all what I think about alligators are in the mangrove .....but Fearlessly this guy dived in it's habitat just wow !
lol they rarely make it this far south! thanks for tuning in!
Enjoyed it very much, Aaron! Thank you for including me; your videos make me feel like a curious child again, full of awe and wonder of God’s creation. At the tender young age of 71, that doesn’t happen often these days! ☺️
love to hear it! young in the mind! thanks so much for watching!
Those cuts through the mangroves are magical !
They really are!
Love that back yard 👍🏼💯
Me too!!!
That little boat packs a punch lol that thing looks like a ton of fun !
its a blast!
what a great show! really enjoyed it. Looking forward to viewing more of this type, as you can, of course. Wondering if you ever see any lobsters underneath those creeks. Thanks again Capt
glad you enjoyed it! and yes we do time to time!
I always enjoy the underwater shots. Looking forward to seeing what you cook with these fish.
love to hear it!
Incredible catching mangrove snappers on bare hooks. Great post. Thanks for sharing!!
thanks for coming along!
abundant fish in that water .. you are highly blessed
thanks for watching!
