    I'm enjoying this video 3 yrs after you posted, Jacob.
    What a pleasure to watch you and your dad enjoy a beautiful day on the water, fishing together!
    PLUS the good food you caught!!!
    My father was a hunter & observing his happiness when he brought home Elk and quail for our table is one of my earliest memories.
    (that would have been after WWII post 1945)
    As a woman, there is nothing as exciting and wonderful as having a man bring home food he harvested!
    (as a young mom, I raised rabbits for our table -- I was content knowing they were raised on clean feed in very large hutches.)
    Time on the ocean is time well spent.
    Congratulations on your lifestyle.
    Very admirable!

    When I lived in Alaska my other half's cousin went halibut fishing. I took some pieces, put McCormick grill mates seasoning... Three different ones...and corn meal. Placed the seasoning in a Ziploc tossed the fish in... Lightly coated... Heated a fry pan with just a little olive oil... Skin side down until halfway cooked, flipped them over and finished cooking... Don't over cook it turns kinda chewy

    Looks like fun. But one quick bit of advice. Buy a vacuum packing machine. It doesn't need to be a big expensive one, but I've had such good luck with meat and veggies frozen in the thick pouches with no air. But you can get a decent smaller commercial type one for about $300. But I've had a $135 food saver since 2005 that has only needed new foam gaskets every few years.
    It really keeps foods fresh and freezer burn free.

    Hey Jacob, do you have any videos of Lobster fishing? I left Maine way back in 1981. I sure miss it! I lived in Limestone for 3 years. Maine has a Great fishery that's well managed. I now live in California. I do a lot of fishing out the Golden Gate for salmon and halibut! Of course we have different species of halibut and salmon. Pacific and California halibut, and the mighty King Salmon and Coho. We also have many species of tuna off the Southern coast like bluefin! But nothing like the bluefin there! The bluefin tuna is definitely on my bucket list! Also I don't know if you can see my picture but we also do a lot of Sturgeon fishing in the Sacramento River. Anyway great video of you and your dad doing your thing! Maybe someday I'll make it back to Maine.

      I was really impressed with the long lining technique! Never seen that before for Halibut! Must be a commercial thing! Funny thing! I've actually started looking at property online for land off the coast of Maine. I found some nice property up in the Penobscot area. I remember the winters being a little rough compared to Northern California. LOL! By the way those were some nice size Halibut! What's the biggest you've caught! And where exactly are you located? How far North do they chase the Bluefin?

    • @jacobknowles5421
      @jacobknowles5421  3 года назад
