Hooking Fish at the Homer Spit | Fresh Seafood Catch & Cook
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2022
- We head to the Land's End in Homer, Alaska to cast our lines into the ocean in hopes of catching fresh seafood. We start reeling fish in as low tide approaches and walk away with Flounder, Pollock and Sole. Often regarded as the Halibut Fishing Capitol of the World, this unique opportunity to fish from shore provided a fun experience to catch other species that reside in Kachemak Bay.
We appreciate you tagging along for our Alaskan adventure 😀
Thank you for watching and supporting our channel! 💙

Bo is legitimately the most gorgeous dog. My wife is a vet and always comments on his fantastic condition for a larger, older dog. Apparently the Alaskan lifestyle agrees with him too.
I just want to hug him!
I agree too! Be prepared for a sad video though, eventually. Take the good with the bad. I'm sure they'll make a good tribute video when the time comes! Awesome people.
I thought you were talking about his wife. Lol
I started watching your videos about two years ago. I love how you two make me feel as if I'm right there with you in your adventure's. That doesn't happen by accident. It takes hard work, thought and creativity. Thank you both!
Thank you 😊
@@SimpleLivingAlaska what you guys have is true love. Working well together, enjoying each others company, going on adventures and providing for your life (food/veggies/shelter) Beautiful to watch ❤🌹
I second that.
You threw back a delicious Monkfish. The tail is so firm and meaty, a huge treat to eat.
Love Homer.
If you get Flounder again, try pan frying it whole in butter and lemon. It’s really easy to eat and tastes amazing
Yes I agree with Cherree. Flounder is best fried whole. Either pan fried (healthiest) or deep fried in batter. The outer flesh is so soft and smooth yummy. Also you dont wast any of that yummy yummy flounder. Wish I lived there too but have to be ok in New Zealand. Thanks for your continued high standard of videos.
Oh once cooked whole peal off the cooked meat and eat it then turn over and start side two. Mmmm my mouth is wattering just writting about it!!!
I love love stuffed flounder with crab imperial, it's delicious and amazing!!! 💗
I agree, this is how we eat them in Denmark.
G'day from AUS. Awesome tips for cooking flounder. As for me I cook flounder Asian style (me being Filo' born). I pat dry the flounder, cut a couple of shallow grooves along the thickest part of the flesh. Salt and pepper (or any favourite spices) then a light dusting of flour on each side. Shallow fry to your preferred crispiness. I notice you use a lot of coconut oil which I awesome, enjoy. BTW: your videos are a hard habit to break! Cheers.
Hey Eric, instead of using a triple swivel, use a piece of tackle called a bazooka. It lets your line slide through so you can feel the bite. You can get them at sportsman’s. Also if you really get into shore fishing a 14’ rod really helps sling your bait out farther. Try clam gulch for some halibuts when the hooligan are running they bring in some big ones, cheers!
Back in the 1970's we did a lot of camping at Clam Gulch after we visited Homer. Stayed there for over two weeks at a time. Clamming for razor clams. When the tide went out it went out a long ways and you could find all sorts of interesting stuff on the sea floor.
Sounds like a Carolina rig.
You don't even need that, just use a crane swivel as a slider.
Try a slip sinker.
we call that a fish finder rig.. but might not be readily available up there.. amazon does sell them tho..
Hi guys, my son Eric and I always watch your channel on RUclips. He is 4 yo and always asks for me to contact Eric and wants to talk to him. We're in Arizona and I tell my son that Eric is too far to talk to. My son Eric is so happy that he can look up to someone who has his name! Anyway, thanks so much for inspiring my son to want to fish! It's so awesome what you guys do! Thank you again for just being you! ❤️
Tell Eric we say hello ;)
So y'all are just so stinkin' cute, I can't stand it... The love you have for food, adventure, and each other is blatantly obvious and quite refreshing .. Keep being you!!!!
Oh, no, y'all caught Patrick😁. Thanks for putting him back ❤.
In 1977 on a Salmon Seiner going from Seattle to Kodiak we stopped over at Seward. The dock was well lit and way down in that clear water I could see big fish swimming around. It was early May prior to Salmon season opening but we had a few rods and reels and I tied on a red and white spoon and dropped it down. They bit right away. They looked like that fish you said was Pollock. My crewmate thought they were what he called Tom Cod. We filleted them and having nothing else just sauteed them in butter, salt and pepper. I recall them being very mild and slightly sweet tasting. It was the only time I ate any. I was 22 and now know there are a lot of good eating fish in Alaska......though by the end of September having eaten so much salmon I felt like Bubba in Forest Gump reciting all the different ways to eat it...that it was years after before I could eat salmon again and enjoy it. We sure ate good that summer though. Traded salmon with Halibut longliners for skinless boneless filet of halibut. We sometimes caught hundreds if not thousands of small sole type fishes...a lot were blotchy mottled black and light colored. They weren't harmed but were a pain to pick out of the net and release. In short periods when salmon season would close in an area so enough would get up river to spawn we would drop a few pots for Dungeness crab or dig razor or steamer clams (Razors were fantastic. We all had subsistence licenses and we got a Caribou along the Alaskan peninsula and split it between our boat and my skipper's father's boat (the famous Alaskan fisherman who virtually pioneered the King Crab fishery...name of Ole Harder...I worked for his son Paul) We got two Sitka deer on Kodiak while anchored up near shore. Of course I love your channel and it brings back some of the best memories of my life. I had an offer from Ole to crab on his boat the winter of 77-78 but I'd flown back to Georgia to check on the girlfriend I'd left behind over a year ago and ended up getting engaged. She was a hometown southern girl...still is...we've been married 44 years. Had I not flown home I might have never left Alaska I loved it so much. All the beauty, wilderness and wildlife. And I found the people very unpretentious. On the way up to Kodiak we also stopped in Juneau because Paul wanted to visit his sister. I was on the boat which was docked and Paul was in town. A guy in a pea coat and watch cap came down the dock and asked if the boat was Paul Harder's. I said it was and the guy said that Paul's father Ole had told him Paul built a new boat. In Paul's absence I showed him around. I figured he was another fisherman. When he left he told me to tell Paul that Jay Hammond stopped by. When Paul came I told him and he told me that Jay was the governor of Alaska! No enourage or nothing! Very impressed!!!
What an amazing experience, Greg! Thanks for sharing. Cool stuff.
@@mnmoose11 Thank you...I know it was a long winded comment, but the video brought back so many great memories.
Nice calm action by Arielle to save that seagull at 19:10
Thanks for visiting Homer again! We love it when people who are so involved in outdoor activities can come to Homer and experience something new still! If you ever need a place to crash or some local tips, don't hesitate to reach out to me! My wife and I were both born and raised in Homer and we have some great connections that you should take full advantage of. :) Thank you again for your incredible footage and for enjoying yourself.
I've always wanted to visit Alaska, but never have. Now, I'm getting to old to enjoy all the awesome outdoor activities. So, I live vicariously through you two. Thanks for posting all the cool scenery and drone footage. Great job.
Dido, 78, with cancer, Love these kids' Plus so poor I can't even pay attention.
@@billparker987 We've got the money to go. But, my wife is a southern Texas girl and a weather wussy. 😝
Never to old. Go ASAP!
Never too old … you should go !
Where there is a Will, there is a, Way!
If you can afford it by all means go on that trip to Alaska!
So glad you treated yourself to that quaint cabin . You’ve earned it ! 😍
OK kids another perfect video I so enjoy my vacations with you lol🐟🐠 stay as beautiful as you are 🥰👵🏻
If I am going to eat fish, I prefer to taste the fish with very little spice. I like to taste the fish, not hide the flavor with a lot of spices or sauces. Everyone like their fish different cooked different ways and I am one of the weird ones that actually likes to taste the fish. I fry certain types of fish in a flour/cornmeal mixture with salt and pepper. Some fish I will place on foil, add a pad of butter, thin slice of lemon, and bake. Or some, I sauteed in butter, a little white wine, and capers. But only use small amounts so as to not cover the flavor of the fish. I love watching your channel with all the different recipes you all come up with, they all look so delicious. I just wish I could be there fishing too. I have been watching your channel for a couple of years (or longer) and love all that you do, experiment with, ideas, and succeed at whatever you do. But, please give those beautiful pups a lots of belly rubs and hugs from me. Stay happy you two and continue being safe out there. God Bless You All!
I just need to tell you guys, yours is the only channel that I've seen grow through the last 2 years without altering. Some other channels I'm subscribed to changed after the flourish of 2020 - they started making more money and their content became all about sponsorships and adding as many commercials as they could. Yours is the same. The 2 of you, your beautiful state, and all your trials and errors and teachings. Thank you for staying true. I've unsubscribed from a few, but always look forward to a new video from you guys! ♥
I bloody love Bo’s face 🥰
Oh my goodness that mystery fish was HOMELY! If you kept it, the body was so small compared to the head, I imagine that the largest part of eating would have been LIPS! I was glad to see you release it!
Another great video by the WILDERNESS Gourmets !
Lol the way Ariel grabbed that seagull!absolutely love it! ❤️
Hey from New Zealand, awesome catch. flounder is a fish you don’t have to fillet, you just clean them and cook them as is. Flounder can be cooked in cream or coconut cream or milk or fried with salt and pepper, but that just the way I was taught. Thank you 😊
Definitely agree, also from NZ, butter and cream all the way :)
Hearty kai. I love fresh flounder cooked in butter for breakfast with eggs. And a big cuppa tea ☕. I did chuckle when I saw them fillet those flounders. They're so skinny, those are some mad skills!
Flounder stuffed whole is delicious cooked on the grill also, but ya don’t file’ it
@@rachelleandrichard lol I agree
We do the same in India - there bones are softer.
Pollok and sockeye are my fav ocean fish. 👍👌🤟
In all that both of you do,you pretty graceful,doing all that you love.💞😇🇹🇹
"I was holding back for the car.era!"
Don't ever feel like you need to hold back for us! 😁 We love seeing you both enjoy the well-deserved fruits of you hard labor!
It's very hard to act naturally in front of a camera -- it's actually one of the things I like most about this channel. They do quite a good job of just being normal, instead of hamming it up. Most people can't even act naturally nowadays, even if there are no cameras around. Everybody is trying to be a celebrity, all the time.
Camera, not car.era
"it's fighting like it has fins" 😂 that was a such a fun fishing trip.
We stayed by the Homer Spit. It was soo cool. We went fishing and caught our limit of halibut. Best fishing ever
I just gotta say, Ariel is a Beast... She isn't afraid of anything... She grabbed that bird not caring it could pluck her eyes out to rescue it.. No matter the reason or circumstances, she just did it!!!...
Eric you are a blessed and, dare I say it, a LUCKY man ... Y'all are so fortunate to have each other...
Continued Bounty
My oldest son was stationed at Dutch Harbor for a year and brought us back cod, halibut and salmon he caught from the shore! It was the best fish I've ever had!!!!
I got to work for a contract up in dutch harbor and brought home 100 lbs of fish. My family loved it. Cod and flathead
My son lived there too. Loved the seafood he'd bring to us when he visited!
Wow. What a video. My hubby of 56 years got me started fishing when we were dating at 16. I've always loved it and trying new places was always exciting. I so enjoy your videos, whatever you two do. Brings back lots of wonderful memories for me. Take care out there you two and stay safe.
Your channel is THE only one I can watch for hours. Length of your content doesn't matter. It's like free trip to Alaska. Every time. Thank you.
sounds like the joy this week was in the catching more than eating lol
Thank you Arielle and Eric, you transport us with your videos to Alaska, showing us that doing your shopping at rivers is really fun.
The candid convos at the end of the videos are special. Truly make it feel like we’re just buds, hanging out.
-Much ❤️ from Washington!
LOVE SEEING YALL TOO!
Fun times! Flounder is great with a butter/wine sauce with capers- you are
Living the dream!!!!
Ariel’s pure fondness for animals is really coming out this video 😊😊 flounder are very cute too
The flounder is the perfect fish to eat raw. It is one of the main fish we have in Korea when we go for raw fish. Try it with wasabi and soy sauce or a sauce of blended red hot pepper and vinegar. For a milder sauce, try sesame oil and salt. Awesome video today like always! ♡ you guys!
Yes, halibut is also good for ceviche, with red onion, avocado, shrimp/scallops, and lemon/lime juice.
Yes, I can’t wait to see what they come up with. ❤️
actually flounder, and pollack are considered a "trash" fish in Alaska :) its why there is no limit on them .. vs salmon, halibut, etc.. there isnt even a commercial fishery for them if I recall, they dont bring in enough money ... yet (as the worlds oceans become even more depleted, it might become a fishery later, but the prices would have to triple on those fish world wide)
Halibut have parasites so I would think so do flounder!
@@Donnie9by5
Bottomfish have worms for sure. I've seen them in Lingcod, Halibut, Flounder, and Halibut among others.
Not worth the risk in my opinion unless you freeze first
great place to fish..great view to bring a chair and coffee
I find it so refreshing that when you don't know something...you say "We don't know" I think it really helps with trust in your channel.
The fish you caught at 16:00 looked a lot like a monkfish (comments saying it's actually a Great sculpin) . Amazing catches and fun to see a variety. Was surprised when you caught the multiple starfish.
あんこう，Anko
@@ZincTd monkfish
I was thinking the same thing.
Yes it's a Monk Fish,a very meaty texture 👍
100 % yep. Monkfish and in german speaking countries it's called Seeteufel. (Sea Teufel=Devil)
I love how Alaska is even beautiful on an overcast/rainy day!!! Awesome filming and editing - as usual!! Thanks for taking us fishing!!! That was fun!
Jus love watching Margaret Lynch SOUTHERN IRELAND 🇮🇪
Just beautiful God gives us all that beauty free! Love it!
That look Ariel made when Eric rubbed in the fact he held out eating the fish was priceless, I wanna know what happened after the take! 😂🐕🏠
Road trip and coffee and fishing got to be a great time
U kiddos are making my mouth salivate with those delicious food...😋😆❤👍
Flounder baked with lemon, butter and garlic is fantastic. It’s such a light fish I think it holds up well this way.
You guys deserve a lil cabin for a few days,thanks for bringing us along!!!🐠🐟
I like fresh cod,just egg&floured and pan fried in butter. I would never recommend trying a fish any other way, you have to know what things taste like before you start throwing handfuls of herbs and spices at them. Cod and most flat fish are best after a night in the fridge. Trout and eels should be killed as close to cooking as possible. Big Pollock make amazing fish curry.
I love it when you go fishing…. You always look happy and relaxed
Girly protect that gorgeous ring
You two living the dream.
When Eric pulled that “Irish Lord” out of the water I almost ran 😂😂 That was the scariest ugliest fish I’ve ever seen .. I’d have left pole and everything 😂😂. This was a fun video.
That was a massive prehistoric looking fish! So cool! Loved Eric’s meditation too lol 🫶🏽
I think that was a monkfish. Google it. That's what they look like. Yummy fish.
@@chessbaeninety-four8337 Yes you are absolutely right it was monk fish and expensive in europe
@@chessbaeninety-four8337 Close, but monkfish are an Atlantic species. Look up cabezon, a similar looking species native to the Pacific Coast from Baja California to Alaska. They're edible, but females with eggs are toxic. I've caught a few in Puget Sound but released them under the 'too ugly to eat' rule.
No, that was a hog of an Irish Lord. You can catch em all day right there and trust me when I say, it doesn't taste good. I've tried many ways and each time has been no bueno
It was a cabezon
Wow, the fish tacos cooking show makes my mouth water! Roll that footage again…
Wow, that fish still looks good!!!!! 😄
I only just discovered your channel in this last month but I've watched so many of your videos. Aside from all of the great content, of which there is plenty, I just wanted to say that I love your editing. The use of music and b-roll transitioning scenes is so well done.
Your channel is pure genius! You mix everyday life in rural Alaska off-grid, which is very interesting, with your trips, with all the adventure, with your cooking, which is always a high point. I cannot imagine a more interesting variety of content. My wife and I look forward to watching every episode. BTW - if you are ever in Florida, you are welcome to stay with us. We live in a 55+ community, but have an extra bed and bath. We would love to meet you.
I know fried anything isn't the healthiest food. Fish and chips is one of my favorite meals. Just fried up about 6 or 7 pounds of Lingcod this morning.
Fish tacos are an amazing treat! Love some simplistic fish tacos. Gotta say though, shrimp tacos hold my heart. If you've read this far, I'll get to the point! Something I stumbled across just loving fish as much as I do. I've already eluded to the knowledge of frying not being the healthiest. Winner every time in taste!
Broil, bake or smoke whatever fish you would for tacos, add whatever seasonings and condiments then roll up in a flour tortilla and FRY IT!!
SEAFOOD CHIMICHANGA IS THE BOMB.
The big headed fish you caught us a Cabezon… we sometimes snag them here off the coast of Washington when Halibut fishing out if Sekiu… they have LIGHT BLUE flesh and if you sauté them in butter taste and texture is just like LOBSTER… don’t throw them back!!!! (That first one you caught was HUGE)!!! Jen, my wife and I have see every one of your episodes and you’ve inspired us so we moved to the country on 18 acres and have started our own gentleman farm!!! Thank you!
Beautiful scenery and adventure once again! The view from the cabin was awesome, and a different place to fish! I just love coming along for the experience of Alaska!💙
Loved this video! So fun to watch you guys catching new species and having a great time. That last bit was pretty funny, I feel like I need Ariel’s restraint toward fried food 😂
ROAD TRIP!!! You're NOT made out of sugar ... GO!!!
Baked stuffed sole with lemon cream sauce. Pollock for the general consumer is imitation crab meat. Yummy!
Yippee! A new video! Thanks, guys!
It’s so wild that you caught starfish! They were beautiful!
monk fish! its really good like poor mans lobster! I screamed at the screen when you put him back!
Pollock is what is used for imitation crab. Ariel, your definition of what it tasted/felt like is exactly correct.
I’ve been waiting for another adventure! This old guy can only take so much gardening. 😂 Thank you friends for keeping us informed.
hahaha Todd, you old cat ;-)
@@maggiemaja822 , how did you know I like cats? 😂
@@toddunruh3998 I can sense it a mile away. 😁
You guys are killing me! The drive down to Homer is one of the most beautiful drives anywhere. Turnagain Arm is seriously scenic! I can't wait till I take that drive again. I love Homer, if I could make a living there, I would live there. Great video, I enjoy every one of them.
“ It’s fighting like it has fins”😂😂😂
Love your videos. You're missing the boat at Homer spit. Get something, row out to the end of the pier where they dump the fish carcasses, tie your boat off, drop a snarl of monofilament line with your hook and a fish carcass attached in the middle. Wait a couple minutes, reel it in and have the net ready. Beautiful Dungeness crabs await you. Keep the males. Check your regs but we used to do it back in the 90's. Best eating there is.
at 16 minutes looked like a monk fish which is excellent eating
my boyfriend said the same, and he's a chef who's been working with lot's of fish for a decade. and I must agree, it's an excellent tasting fish, if prepared right :)
Yes, that was a monk fish. Julia Child showed how to cook it right in one of her old videos. I have bought it once to try, expensive but it tasted like lobster meat.
How you bread salt-water fish definitely makes a world of difference. I’m not all that big on panko breading, so your beer-batter approach seemed to work very well.
Brining for an hour or so, while finding the spices you enjoy the most in the breading should be a fun adventure.
But yep, this type of fish is popular because it isn’t all that oily or “fishy.” You’ll figure it out over time. Keep a journal on your experimentation.
And, the chickens WILL love whatever you and Pepper don’t.
Lol watching the end Eric has me laughing that’s me .. holding back for the camera HAHA !! You guys are legit the best.
In Canada, we call the four seasons: "Fall; Winter; Spring and Road Construction" 🤣🤣🤣
There was a Japanese restaurant in Los Angeles where we used to go and get a whole, deep fried flounder. The bones are so small that you could just eat them. It was an amazing dish and when I saw you fishing for flounder, I thought of it.
What a great trip-it was fun to see you catch new types of fish in the ocean, and how excited you were about them all.
It's great watching you two fish because your enthusiasm and excitement is contagious. Congrats on the busy hooks!
Flounder so yummy 😋
Glad you washed your windshield. I enjoy watching you silly guys.
Good to see you guys smiling from ear to ear and enjoying yourselves after all the winter prep 💙👍
I love going on road trips with y'all.
Great video.. was glad to see you help out the poor bird who was hooked...
Good job guys
You guys make my day! I get such enjoyment watching you interact with each other and the camera. Thanks again for a great video! Take care!
Y’all are so fun! Loved the drone video and how Arielle explained how the Spit extended out a couple of miles into the ocean and then the drone showed us the Spit. Loved all the video you took of that area. Thanks! P.s., that big ugly fish, bless its heart, glad you put him back to live another day. I bet he has a great personality and can tell lots of good stories.
I love flounder!
If I was a wild animal , Alaska would be the spot. Those birds are in absolute paradise
“I was holding back”
Eric…never hold back; eat the heck out of those fish 🐠
I am so glad that you take us on your journeys. Alaska is beautiful.
I'm glad you splurged with the cabin ! you both work sooooo hard every day, you need to treat yourselves sometimes!!!!!
Just returned from Anchorage.
Loved it, yes; rained every day….
Yay, that was fun. Always knew that when the birds are flying, the fish are biting. The cabin is so dang cute, have fun guys!!
Another great show, because that’s what you give us. It’s better than anything on TV, and I am always so happy when I see a new one. Loved watching the shore fishing and how much you both enjoy it. Food looked so tasty, until next time, stay safe and God bless you both.
Starfish was like EAT ME! 😂😂
I am retired and our winters are like yours, you are rated #1 we are #2 so I watch a lot of RUclips during the winter. Your channel is by far and away the best one. There are a lot of very good ones, but yours is #1🏆 thank you.
I thought it was a monkfish but not sure , love all you adventures
It was a Monkfish. Good eating fish!
Monkfish are all over the place off cape cod.
I though it was
@@joancorbett9625 yes I agree looked like Monkfish, ugly looking fish but good firm meaty fish for eating and popular in restaurants here in the UK
Pretty sure monkfish don't live in the pacific.
Lots of memories of our trip to Alaska 3 years ago. We got to see the Belugas. Homer is beautiful, and we sat on the beach close to where you were fishing. 4 weeks until we will be back in Alaska to stay. So excited!
Did you guys get a new truck?
Congratulations, I'd love to move up there but my wife and kids say no!!
We just cooked and ate flounder whole with gut removed that's all.
I was born and raised in the Catlins SE coast south from Dunedin New Zealand. My favourite fish from all the fishing was the FLOUNDER. Caught at ebbing to low tide in big nets cos they're bottom of the ocean dwellers . Still my most fave fish always and forever. We had a freezer by my teen yrs and that's where the flounder went. Am drooling as you catch flounder at low tide an entire world away from my memories. OH WOW !!!!!!
So cool guy's ✌️ great fishing 🎣 Trip enjoyed your video very much 💯😎✌️💚🌱🎣
