February 27th, 2018 -- Taking in consideration that the 27th was my mother's Birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!), I decided to go to Newton Lake in Collingswood, NJ, to harvest some Bluegill for a catch-and-cook!
I hope you guys enjoy this very educational and lengthy episode, where I bring you folks not only the fishing, prepping, cooking, and tasting, but even an afterword on fish consumption guidelines!
The recipe for this video is below!
-- "Cumin 5-Spice Fried Fish, EPF Style" --
PLEASE CHECK YOUR ALLERGIES BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS DISH!!!
Ingredients for 1 serving:
(1 serving = 10 fish in the range of 6-7 inches)
10 fish, prepared whole
2 tsp. hickory smoked salt
4 tsp. grounded cumin
1 tsp. grounded turmeric
2 tsp. five spice powder
1 tsp. ground black pepper
6 tsp. olive oil
Prepping:
1. Clean the fish! Take the scales off. Discard the head. Slice the belly and clean the gut-pocket. Wash it and dry it.
2. drop all seasonings + olive oil and marinate it.
3. leave it in the fridge (covered) for 24 hours for the flavor to seep in!
P.S. As indicated in the video, there may be traces of heavy metals and PCBs in the integumentary system of the fish (a.k.a. skin, etc). Thus, make sure you harvest your fish from a clean watershed!
Cooking:
1. heat the pan and add an amount of olive oil that will cover HALF of your fish after all fish are in (summon your inner Archimedes).
2. Cook each side on high fire for AT LEAST 5 minutes. 7 minutes for extra crispness. And 7+ if you like your fish SUPER CRISPY.
Enjoy!

I hope you all understand that this catch-and-cook ain't your "entertainment" style catch-and-cook! By watching this video, not only you should be able to fully reproduce the dish that I have shared with you folks, but you should also be able to _responsibly_ harvest fish from your local waterways *and* care for your health and the health of your loved ones!!! If you are going to consume fish or give fish to others to be consumed, at least make sure that it is not poison, right? Heh.
Alright, folks...hope you enjoyed this video! Tight lines and FISH ON!
hey leo maybe iv broken the golden rule o YT and not wathed the entire video and commented but why not eat the hybrids?
Why wouldn't want to eat the hybrid?
Cuz they are rare in that watershed, BUSHCRAPPING. I always eat what is common, and release what is uncommon.
but surely by not taking the hybrids, blue gill recruitment would be slightly harmed but the hybrid recruitment would be up,
but by taking both still the hybrid recruitment would be up, because it is a hybrid haha
damn leo u savage im so jealous, i need to do a bluegill fry soon! keep being awesome!
I remember my mom taking us fishing for bluegills when i was a kid while my dad was at work. Then she would clean them fillet them and cook them for dinner. A few years ago my friends and i were camping and we decided to catch some bluegills and cook them like my mom used to. Man , it took forever to clean enough bluegill to feed 6 people then cook them. My mom used to do it twice a week. When i got home i gave my mom a big hug and told her i appreciated everything she went through to keep us fed when we were growing up. This was a good homage video to your mom. People dont realize what parents actually DO for their kids. 👍
Beast Man almost got a tear reading this lol but yes, our parents will go through hell for us to be happy and well fed
Same here, brother. My Dad and my Mom would clean the fish all the time. Crazy how long it actually takes to clean them that way, unless you are doing fillet! It tastes best when eating with others, though. Heh.
Beast Man foreals I cleaned 4 of them and it took me a while and that was my first time ever catching and eating a fish
1) Fishing out his dropped worms
2) Eating the bones
3) Chugging Dew w no burp
======> SAVAGE
John Frank lmao
Is this man just gonna throw away his worms because they got wet?
I love Leo! He's the common man's fisherman of youtube. Keeping things simple and providing a lovely amount of education in the process.
I tried this method amd i will never fillet my panfish again. This was amazing. Thank you Leo
I grew up here in Florida I've caught and ate bluegill all my life ,
Bluegill and crappie are my favorite fish to eat.
I am only a few minutes in and I can already tell this is going to be good! Chef Leo is in the kitchen!
I hope you enjoy the entire video! I put a lot of love in that cooking. Hahaha.
Extreme Philly I can tell! I want to try this now!
I am an avid daily fisherman and I have to say it is awesome to see the excitement and your overall attitude your true goal seems to just get people out there enjoying fishing like you and I do....great video keep up the good work and attitude my friend!
No rice? No 🥦broccoli? Mashed potatoes 🥔? Looks well-cooked & tasty. Well done. From the stream to a plate.
Dear Extreme Philly Fishing,
I love your videos man! I hope you never stop. Keep up the great work and I hope that your mother had a great birthday! I mean, who knew her life would go on to affect so many lives! Wish her a happy birthday from the EPF fan family! Peace.
This is probably the best catch and cook video on youtube
I loved this video, and a blessed happy birthday to your Mom, you were raised well as I can tell, you have PASSION in what you do which is the KEY to success in any venture, best of luck to you and your Family.
I grew up in Western Colorado. This reminds me of how we used to cook fish on camping trips in the mountains. We did the flying in butter (sometimes lard) and different herbs mix, but otherwise very much the same. It's a fantastic way to enjoy freshly caught fish. Lard was used in longer pack trips in the Summer where we could not depend upon colder temperatures to preserve the butter. It wasn't until much latter in life that I discovered that butter, like lard, does not really spoil under short-term heat. Even so, lard imparts a very desirable flavor to fish. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO! VERY ENJOYABLE.
As a kid growing up in Indiana I would ride my bike to a couple ponds in the woods, and bring home bass, catfish, crappie, and bluegill to cook all through the summer. Starting around 9 or 10 years old I didn't mind cleaning and filleting crappie and bluegill, but after a while I stopped because I was tired of harvesting so little meat from them vs. the bass and catfish. I never considered the whole fish method for these panfish, and now I'm getting a hankering to give this method a try. Looks delicious, and that seasoned fried crunch is making me salivate! Great video Leo.
I've decided to make these fish a fixture of my diet. Both for health and monetary reasons, this is sensible. Thanks for showing us your cooking style. I bet the turmeric brings these full fold. My inner cook says lemon would be at home here.
One of the best videos yet, very great information on selective harvest. Not a lot of people really understand selective harvest. Great job Leo!
This is why I'm so scribed Leo will tell you everything you need to know about fish trying to eat it how to catch it and how to respect it keep them coming leo good job
eating the bluegill? Next time bring them over here Leo and we will put them on the smoker. A collab catch and cook.
Fish Finder oh got any recipes? I've got a smoker and want to try out some gills or cats.
When smoking fish, you can go two ways... virtually no seasoning other than salt and then dress it up after. OR, go with a heavily spiced blackened type of seasoning. If it was salmon, I would go with an Asian marinade.
I wanna see that
When I get a piece of salmon I will do it, but I will most likely upload that video on my other channel where I do more cooking... Flannel Guy DIY
BEST youtube channel of all time, keep it up!! I really do enjoy watching these so much.
Thats the best way to eat small fish.
I really enjoy that you give us viewers education on the pollutants and such on the fish, I love this so much, great video!
Watching you enjoy them as much as you just did makes me want to do this
Your channel is amazing. You put so much time and effort into these videos. You entertain us, educate us, and even gave us the recipe! Good job my man
My man making me hungry when I’m trying to sleep
Every time My moms cooks fish and serves it I always go to the refrigerator and get some lime and put it on my fish
lime and salt is the best
beautiful way of showing respect to your mother by cooking a delicious meal..Respect..looks gooood!
Another great video. Oh man, you made me so hungry for panfish. My mom fixed the fish the sane way. Thanks for making this video and sharing it.
Well it's official I like watching Leo eat LOL! So now we will have to give Leo enough cash to book a few dozen flights so he can morph into my new favorite travel vlogger.
Curious what the thrown out fish with parasites/worms looked like
Exactly! So I know what to look for
@@ExistentialIntrovertblack specs/ a skinny worm looking creature
We smoke our trout whole. The cheek is one of my favorite part.
Great video, dude! Thanks for the info, and I really appreciate the demonstration on how to eat the whole fish. Thanks, and tight lines, Leo!
This fish fry was lit!! 😂 man I enjoy your commentary.
Love the explanation for why you cook that size fish. Thank bud. Keep er movin
When EPF said, "Savage" i was cracking up!
when you check the oil with the chopsticks was so funny for me :P cause I do the same thing
Holy smokes u devoured all those fish lol take it easyyyyyyyy
First time I've watched your videos and it was awesome!! Your personality is great! Thank you for this video!
Wow! I like your very informative style and explanations. What's fascinating is your enthusiasm and pure pleasure of fishing and eating. Great presentation. You should be on
a radio or TV show. Thanks, roythegourd
Eating bait? Taking the micro-fishing to the next level. 😆 love the channel
Leo I love your videos never stop doing what you love!!!!!!! FISHING
Brings me back to growing up in Indiana and catching a stringer full of blue gill for family cookouts. We always scaled and left skin on the fillets. I will try this method the next time I have a chance. Thanks for sharing.
Leo, that’s the way I was brought up to eat fish and to this day I still have my white perch that way. I grew up in the south and we were taught not to waste anything that we harvested. Loved your video, informative and entertaining. Tight lines..
I could watch this guy eat all day
UH HUH! You forgot Mothers Day last year, cause you were fishing,didnt you? Nice video Sir. Thanks, it brought back some great memories! Got to keep Mom happy!
Hi Leo, Another great video! Thank you for sharing your fishing adventures. You are a good son by honoring your mom. I've seen some of your other videos. Your parents must be proud of you and you must have an awesome understanding wife. I appreciate the education (and coaching too!) and the cooking sessions as well as well as the actual fishing. Tight Lines and Take It Easy friend.
We love seeing all the equipment spec'd out, please take the time !!!
Loved this video man taught me an awesome recipe and which bones can and can't be eaten. The super loud gulping of the soda was awesome also lol 😂😂
Thanks for teaching me how to eat blue gills. I use to only eat the meat part.
Happy Birthday Mom!! I Enjoy your time and effort Leo!
I'm from south Jersey... Gloucester, collingswood, haddon two area.... your videos make me feel at home!
A nice fish dinner with Mountain Dew on the side? That's class right there.
Always enjoy your videos, lucky save on your baits buddy. Lol, you fished them right out. Keep on rocking buddy. Thanks to you, knowing the right selection when winter fishing. Blessings to you sir.
That's just the way I grew up eating pan fish! Still do it today... Great catch and cook!
Wow - I used to fish on those steps back in the 70's! Collingswood does not change & neither has the pollution, but it at least it looks better then back then!
Great job, Leo! Happy birthday, Leo's mom!
Trying this as soon as i can catch some bluegill. Thanks for this brotha!
The creek next to my house is a little honeyhole for bluegills every time it rains enough to fill it! I have a little concrete pile in there, the bluegill can't resist hanging out in there once the waters recede a bit- dropshot heaven!
Yet another great video! Beautiful homage to your mother Leo!!
Thanks a lot Leo now my wife wants some bluegill I'm not complaining I want some to great video
My dad used to eat bluegill like this. He was born during the Great Depression and grew up during WW2 and the 50's. They would fry up the fish and eat them just like this.
I was the 65 person to wach and notification squad lol love the video and all the time you spend in all of your videos and love the video are the same time roughly
Great video and excellent recipe. You have a beautiful mom
What's the best way to dispatch the fish? And should it be right after catch? Or should it be thrown on ice?
This is the best video about eating bluegill, great job 👍
this video is awesome thanks for sharing extreme Philly fishing
If your worried about Heavy Metals, there are steps you can take to limit your intake of them including drinking a Charcoal mix for intercepting Mercury.
Extremely educational-awesome!!!!! Thank you
Happy Birthday, Mrs. Sheng !!
Gooooolly! You just munched 10 bluegills! Savage lololololol!
leo is a national treasure who must always be protected
only thing missing was the rice flower beer batter you have to try it Leo extra crispy on a fresh potato bread bun with lettuce and pepperjack cheese slice of tomato and onion ring on top of the tomato
Hello Leo 😊, Belated Birthday Wishes to ur mom .... she raised a great son 😊👍!! Alwys enjoying ur vids !! Eddie n Jill.
Yep, salt-water panfish the same way, scale 'em, clean 'em, cook 'em, Eat 'em (best part) They even had built in tooth picks. 😃😎 Homage to mom's and grandma's everywhere. 👍
I can't wait to get back on the lake this year. I miss eating some good ole bluegill. Delicious fish.
For sure one of my favorite fish to eat.
He talks about eating healthy while drinking Mountain Dew. LOL!
With bluegill, or any kind of fish, my dad would just scale it, take intestines out, score each side, then fry it. That allows the bones throughout the body to become real easy to crumble, like chips.
Sorry I’m late to see this one been working every day but take eaaaassssssssy Leo lol you devoured those little fellas #tightlines
When you bit into the fins it sounded so nice
Delicious looking fish, Leo!!
Yes sir. That's how my mom did it too... i gotta have rice with mines tho
rice a salad for me
great video man, getting better and better!
For everyone out there I know a good recipe too cornmeal spread on the fish and then just put oil in the pan and throw them in the pan tastes best with trout
Thanks for the advice on the dangers of polluted lakes.
Sorry for this late comment but happy birthday extreme's mom
Though im British, i was born in Hong Kong. I learnt to eat Fish in the "Asian Style" still love it that way, very cool video :-)
There isn't anything better than deep fried blue gill tail fins , smaller pan size channel cats as well. kids thought I was crazy....lol
I never outgrew this. take my kids bluegill fishing for catch and cook one my favorite to eat.
No lime after being cooked. 😂 😂 😂 😂
Wow now that you mention it I don't think I've ever had a filet while in South America. Red Snapper is one of my favorite fish to eat and I've only had that whole.
slaying them bluegill looking foreward to the next vid, GREAT content
I’m sure it’s past now but Happy Birthday Leo’s Mom 🎉 🎂
I appreciate your videos and explaining this to other people, I live in the Portland Oregon area and people always want to just keep the "big ones".
Right on time I was watching some of your old videos
Really enjoy your channel! plenty of saltwater fishing channels out there. But I really enjoy the freshwater fishing footage. keep up the good work
Thank you very much for all the love and support. I appreciate the feedback, Warren. Tight lines!
hey leo nice video, in jamaica we season the fish with salt and black pepper u can use fish spice as well and then fry it. we also make escovitch sauce by heating white vinegar with onion, hot peppers, carrots, and bell peppers its really good and i hope you'll give it a try.
We were poor when I was growing up and was raised eating fried whole bluegills too. We caught our dinner at least once a week for at least one summer.
The fins are my favorite part! Fortunately other family members never tried the fins. Their loss, my gain! 😜
Leo If you do catch and cook walleye or crappie you should clean the inside and scale it keep the head on then put it on aluminum foil fill, stuff the inside with lemongrass,whole chili(opinional),green onion, ginger and garlic and sprinkle some salt inside and cover the whole fish with aluminum foil and bake it in a oven till its ready.
P.s would work with other fish but best with either whole walleye,whole crappie and whole tilapia
Aye this what I was waiting for Leo. Nice video and you should do a catch and cook for walleye and other kinds of fish.
Hahaha Leo pulled a peric when he dropped the container of night crawlers
