My dearest Stephanie and clay. My husband and I are huge fans. He was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer. He has gone through a transplant and it has been the hardest struggle of our lives. But he finds so much joy in watching your show. He gets such a kick out of watching you guys on the ocean fishing and catching amazing species of fish. The whole show just inspires him to get better so he can finally be on the water. So thank you and keep putting out this amazing content
Sorry to hear this Roxanne.. We will have him in our prayers. We are so glad that we can bring him positivity and joy. Tell him clay and Stephanie are rooting for him!
Just went for my first lobster trip on Thursday (first trip to the keys!) and got my limit, too! Amazingly hard work. Adrenaline got to me for the first hour or so, then I was able to calm down and concentrate on just swimming and looking. Catching my first lobster was something I'll never forget!!
You hit the nail on the head Matt that’s what it’s all about you just staying relax and just controlling your excitement. Really increases your time down on the bottom. Anyway congrats and we look forward to seeing you back down here in the keys!
Was it easy to find a spot to start looking?
I admire the love you guys have for the sea and passion you guys have for fishing/free diving and as a person who loves the sea as well, you guys make me appreciate how fortunate I am to enjoy these things during my free time. I’d love to see you guys come to Belize 🇧🇿 and make a video of your fishing experience here.
Thanks so much! We sure are fortunate people to be able to experience life by the water.
We hope to make it your way! 😊
I can’t imagine my life without the sea 🌊. Here in Belize 🇧🇿 we have second largest barrier reef in the world with pretty much the same fishery as you guys have there. I’ve got two uncles who are sport fishing guides with both having 15 plus years experience as fishermen and I’m sure you guys would have great time fishing with them.
You guys are seriously inspirational. Went to The Orlando boat show yesterday, and was able to narrow down the field of center console possibilities. Retirement can’t get here soon enough!
Really love hearing it Ricky appreciate your support and of course the kind words thank you for watching as always!
@@LifeByTheBow why did you sale the contender
@@salt-team-six5883 My guess, Fuel cost. Have a nice day.
I've been watching your videos for a couple of weeks now, and as a former marketing pro and someone interested in living in the keys, I want to congratulate you on the production values of the videos. The quality is way above other types of these posts. High resolution, slo-mo, in-water and underwater shots, especially of the fish biting, music and drone work are really topnotch. The chemistry between you and Stefani is great and the fishing tips and overall advice you share is helpful. It's a really nice touch to watch her prep it for dinners. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the kind words James
You two are great. Motivational and I learn a lot. I like how you two don’t assume the viewers know about everything you’re doing and why so you explain things. Keep it up! Great channel!
Thanks so much!
Good to see you including your camera operator. He's a big part of your channel. But Stephanie was the best full time addition to your channel. Her enthusiasm is the icing on the cake.
Stephanie is what makes it lol! Zack is also an asset teamwork makes the dream work, thanks for watching my friend!
Great episode guys and I appreciate Clay's love and care for the water and wildlife.
Thank you my friend we try our best!
You guys have what must be… the best backyard on the planet. Super technique on the lobster hunt. Nice to see Zack in the action and snagging bugs’ too. Your tips on the equipment were spot on and Stephanie has not lost her touch underwater. Really enjoy all your episodes and this one was superb. Over the top hood.
Thanks so much Lance we appreciate you more than you know so excited to get out there in Spearfish with the new gun!
Your boat is exceptionally clean, you must store it inside and detail it constantly. Also your videography is absolutely the best.
I wish! She’s been getting a little bit of neglect lately because we’ve been filming so much…
You two are the best and are the reason we moved to Fl and started doing what we love!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate the kind words
There’s nothing better than having a few extra lobster in the freezer, but ever time you fish or go lobstering, just taking what you need is highly commendable. Love your channel
Thanks Steve I can’t disagree with you there that’s why we don’t think others are wrong for stocking up however sometimes people don’t really think about how much they’re taking. Thank you so much for watching.
Great video guys! That tip about staying calm when you're underwater is a game changer! The weather on Mini Season was rough this year, but the important thing is to have fun and stay safe, and it looks like you guys did just that! Thanks for the great episode!
Thank you Sebastian! The weather was definitely a bummer of July so far August is looking amazing!
Just did my first florida keys lobstering video, sent you all a shout out, bc your videos helped me a ton! Love to come work with yall and shadow, im 3 hrs away!
Nice work. Going to go check it out! Thanks for watching the video.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us❤❤❤
Our pleasure, thank you for watching.
Incredible how modern trolling motors hold position like that in crazy wind. Great video and thanks for sharing!
Scott it’s truly a game changer! Thanks so much for watching.
I can`t tell it often enough. Everytime when I finished watching your videos .... I feel hungry ( it looks unbelievable delicious), I have endless wanderlust (the enviroment where you live is my favorit part of the world) and I have a smile on my face because I have exactly the same kind of humor as you all and last but not least my cameras and drones start twitching in the closet. Again thank you for these amazing results. Maybe I will have it too for a short time end of the year. I have two request of producing a resort videos on the keys. Have a great and sunny day. God bless you.
Thanks so much my friend, really appreciate all your kind words!
No matter what size the boat, you guys always bring the fun and excitement. Love it
Thanks so much Doug! Appreciate the support!
This guy is so cool. Inspires me to get into the boating life. Great video editing and just pure entertainment. Pretty freaking awesome.
Thanks David do it! Boating is a lot of work but a way of life!
Life is so peaceful.You guys are great.
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video… more impressive is the fact that you guys reply to EVERY comment. Don’t think I have seen that on a channel of this size. Mad props. Lots of love and respect for that. God bless y’all!
I really appreciate that! We try our best to get to everyone to show our appreciation for everyone’s support.
God bless!
LOVED hearing the "woohoo" on the underwater cam! Looking at my first time lobstering in the Keys in a few weeks. She did great!!!
Great video Clay and Stephanie. Amazing presentation and attention to detail of conservation of this magnificent species. The under water footage always my favorite, cause I can wonder around looking at other Corals and tropical fish too. 🐠 thanks for sharing have a great day 🌅
Thanks so much my friend!
Well done again guys I’m sorry to hear you sold your other boat 🚤 enjoy dinner with you guys thanks again 🙏🙏🙏👍👍I’m sure the best of you guys is yet to come love to see what’s your next boat 🧐🧐
Thanks so much my friend!
These are so relaxing. Thank you for the content.
Thanks so much for watching!
Zack, you are so lucky to be hanging out with Stephanie and Clay, I think there the coolest couple, I feel like I know them, just from watching their channel, great video, food looked amazing, be safe and healthy guys, take care, 👍🙏❤️😎🛥️⚓🌴🐬🌊bye
Ruth thank you so much we are all blessed. We appreciate your continued support more than you know. I always love seeing your comments!
Awsome content as always 👌 I always enjoy your videos and commentary! Thank you.
Thank you my friend really appreciate you watching!
For not lobstering on a while, Steph was kickin ass! Good job y'all
She was killing it! Everyone was at that matter!
Thanks for watching Mitchell
Super great video you guys, LOVED it. And those lobster rolls looked like they tasted amazing! Can't wait to take my wife down there and experience some of the things you guys do. (hoping next year) Thanks again!
Thank you Jim really appreciate you watching as always!
Just found your channel and im hooked, pardon the pun :) Beautiful lady, handsome man and great underwater footage, well done Zak. Whats not to like. Love you guys. All the best from the UK
Ha ha love it, thanks so much
Nice Lobsters. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun. Hey great job in letting your viewers know how to properly work your way out if you run aground. Always get out and push. A little extra tip: wear your boat shoes (sandals don't work well), be nice to your feet when you have to get out and push.
Thanks for your appreciation my friend!
Man I would give anything to be able to go out and spend a few days on the ocean, lobstering, and so on. I am going to die and only ever been able to just watch others do things I dreamed of doing. But being disabled and broke ... comes with with my life.
its my first time to watch one of your videos,loved it,thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much!
being from Canada Québec, I am drooling over here lol. I envy you guys because I love the ocean so much, this is the life I wish I had :)
Thanks Christine come on down and visit!
dude!! back to the Roots!! very nice show!! i will definitely share this with my friends!! and the wind is the Sahara dust out of Africa!! is been affecting PR too!! but is better than hurricanes !! thanks again!!
Couldn’t agree more, thanks so much Alfredo!
Your country's fishing area Just stupendous where easily you caught almost giant lobster. Your fishing technique, journey to offshore area and come back destination the whole journey attracting more for the people.
Thanks so much for watching!
I remember we did snoring in Croatia, and when we get back to the surface our boat was 50m from us because anchor wasn’t fixed properly, and we were in the middle of the sea , but I managed to swim this distance as fast as I could to get on boat . 😅 So it’s safer if some one stays on the boat all the time
Oh no, glad you were all okay. We usually have someone on the boat for that reason. We appreciate you watching!
The water is beautiful crystal clear❤❤
Thank you, it is beautiful.
Just found your channel, you are living the dream. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I just came across your channel and I have to say I absolutely love it.. you guys are great.. thank you for showing all the beauty in the Keys.. stay well and have a great day…
Thanks for your support Drew so glad you’re on board!
great video, that does upset me too when you see someone burning up the turtle grass down there, what most people dont know is how long it takes for that turtle grass to come back!
Very true Greg we need to start implementing butters licenses! Thanks for watching my friend.
Guys. I can't contain to keep saying the same thing... This just amaze me. Your production is awesome. Even reverb on Stephanie's Remix... Hahahaha. Great video as always, guys!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks for noticing George really appreciate your continued support!
We were heading to a lobster spot, first time in the keys in 20 years. In route, and coincidentally, we recognized your house off in the distance. Had no idea where it was but pretty unmistakeable. Beautiful place. We went on to catch several bugs but it wasn’t easy. Fun time.
That’s awesome David hope you guys got them!! Really appreciate you watching as well.
Clay and Stephanie - SUPER THANK YOU for your recommendation to Square Grouper. I took the family there this past weekend and had a delicious meal with superior service. Much better experience than Snappers in Key Largo despite it being a building within a dry stack marina. Have a blessed week!!
Glad to hear it my friend thanks so much for watching also very happy to hear you enjoyed your dinner!
Wht a great looking day! That dude who got stuck 😡😡 Love how Zack changed up his shirt 🤣. Have a blessed evening. Dinner looked delicious 😋
It’s funny we were actually talking about that prior to shooting the video looks like we are going to have to make some Avail rash guards pretty soon! Thanks for watching Julia.
Clay sick shirt brother, love that one. And absolutely on the “take only what you need”! Zack great job getting down there buddy points for the camera man. Steph, release the mixtape already we’re all waiting on it to drop! 😜
Thanks for all the kind words my friend! Appreciate you watching as always.
Thank you for sharing these vlogs. I’m from Ont Canada. So don’t live near an ocean. But love watching you guys.
You are very welcome we appreciate you watching more than you know!
Love watching you guys! Also, the editing in the videos is getting top notch! 👌
Thanks so much Michael!
My fave lobster roll was just with mostly butter and very little seasoning …… so good
Can't go wrong with a lobster roll. Thanks for watching!
i wish i would be part of your team and live with you guys .
you are living your life actually .
Thank you. It's all about how you look at things. We appreciate you watching.
@@LifeByTheBow
watching makes my soul more and more desperate .
but america is beyond my access unless somebody sponsor me for any reason .
i dont know when my destiny would start shimmering light
Thanks man. Always waiting on a new vid. Respect from Tennessee. Missing the beach
Really appreciate it my friend thanks so much for your continued support!
I used to do a LOT of Lobster Diving over the years. My best Lobster stories probably come from 43 years ago when I was stationed on Okinawa, Japan in 1980 while I was in the U.S. Marine Corps.
If I had 2 Lobsters or a 3 foot Octopus, I’d take them to Mamasan or Pappasan at whatever local Bar/Resturant and put it, them, on the bar. I’d Eat Yakisoba & drink Orion or Sapporo Beer FREE all night long. So would my Dive Buddy.
I saw a LOT of lobster while I was diving for a week in Roatan, Honduras several weeks ago! But being a Marine Sanctuary for most of our Dive Sites, we couldn’t really do WHOLE LOT OF lobster Hunting or Spearfishing.
Y’all make the Florida Keys look EXTREMELY INVITING! I may have to consider the Keys for one of our families’ Summer Vacation spots for 2023!
Keep the GREAT Videos coming. Y’all are doing a phenomenal job of growing your channel and other side-hustles.
That sounds awesome John thanks for sharing! Really appreciate the kind words 💪🏼
Fantastic Video...Great photography and editing !!
Thanks so much appreciate you watching!
Your drone has some really long range to it....another great video....
Thanks Brad!
Hollywood range camera shoot : perfect clearance
Thanks so much for watching!
Such a beautiful under the sea 🌊🏝️
Yes, paradise. Thank you for watching.
Great video guys y'all were bugging out , now that the contender is gone do we see a freeman cat with quads in your future 👍
We will see thanks Patrick!
Привет. Вам респект. Я тоже жить без моря не могу. У нас море. Чёрное море, до океана далеко. Но хоть так. Живу в море всю жизнь и без моря не могу.
Спасибо большое вам за прекрасные видосы. Удачи вам и штиля. 👍👍👍
Thank you my friend!
Nice job! So beautiful under water….thank you.
Thank you for watching J!
Hi guys! I loved the way you guys were swimming underwater for a long time! I loved seeing that from underwater way away from the surface in deeper water! I also loved the part where the waterline was showing when going all the way underwater when Clay was jumping in the water, waterline showing when moving all the way underwater from halfway underwater after moving halfway and then moving halfway, all the way out of the water and then moving back halfway underwater first and second time! And then the second time I loved seeing the waterline showing was when halfway underwater and then moving all the way back halfway underwater and moving all the way out of the water and then moving all the way underwater, moving halfway out of the water and then moving all the way back down underwater! I also loved seeing the waterline showing when moving halfway out of the water and then moving all the way underwater when I saw Stephanie swimming underwater in her beautiful blue bikini swimsuit! I also loved seeing the waterline showing when coming all the way out of the water with Stephanie! But I also loved seeing the waterline showing the last time when moving all the way underwater from halfway underwater when Clay was jumping in the water! Beautiful! Loved it! Stephanie you look pretty nice and beautiful in your blue bikini swimsuit swimming underwater which I loved seeing from underwater at the bottom of deeper water! And I loved getting a close view of you swimming underwater in your blue bikini swimsuit! I loved that a lot!🥰🐟😍🐬🦈👍💧💦🐋❤️🌊💕🐳👙
Thank you so much for that. We are very pleased to know that you enjoyed everything about the video. We used an underwater camera for this video specifically and just had a change of view. We appreciate your feedback. Thanks for watching.
@@LifeByTheBow That’s no problem! Most of the time most parts of the video should be underwater in deeper water with Stephanie swimming underwater with her beautiful bikini swimsuit! I love seeing that as well! That’s a nice underwater camera by the way!👙🐳💕🌊❤️🐋💦💧👍🦈🐬😍🐟🥰😊
Does lobster Rolls look really good, seeing you guys dive in the water it just looks so relaxing and wonderful, great video keep it up thank you.
That’s why we leave diving! So peaceful.. thanks for watching and try the lobster rolls!
thank you all!. take what you want. Love your channel!
Thanks so much!
Sounds splendid
Thanks for watching!
Your right about that . Take what you need . We have to start somewhere changing the saltwater mentality . Otherwise there won’t be any left
I couldn’t agree anymore my friend! Thanks for watching.
Spiny lobsters....absolutely delicious !!
Thanks Byron they sure were!
Congrats on selling your boat! Can't wait to see what you get next! Delicious looking sandwiches!!
Thanks Carolyn! They were delicious!
Zack , O’Neil shirt. Humm.
Ha ha after this video we began a discussion about Avail rash guards potentially!
Great video and totally agree about people powering through seagrass because good chance you will hit something and bend your skegs or props doing so so best to try and push or wait for the tide to come in
Exactly and worse comes to worse just SEATOW to pull you out. Most people are clueless towards what they’re actually doing to the environment I really do think that a boating license should be implemented in order to operate a boat. Thanks so much for watching my friend!
Another great video, y'all. Thanks for sharing the recipe. That looked delicious!
You’re very welcome Johnny thank you so much for watching!
This last Friday we were bully netting and had no luck with the full moon. We were by Tavernier creek ocean side.
That stinks Robert but great excuse to get back out there! Thanks so much for watching
Hey Guys another super Video. Thanks for sharing, Also Zach nice Video work
Thanks so much Bob! Appreciate you watching.
Great Video, Headed down this weekend to do some lobstering.... cant wait
Nice good luck! Thanks for watching 🤙🏼
great catching skills 😊
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed the video.
Great Video -Fantastic Job to all of you !!!!!
Thanks my friend appreciate you watching!
oh my gosh that lobster looks delicious!
They were! Thanks for watching!
Another excellent video, what a life! thanks for sharing!
Thank you my friend really appreciate your support!
Awesome guys❤❤❤
Thank you glad you enjoyed it.
Your freezer has to be the happiest place on earth!
It definitely does get it fair use!
good day, enjoy
Have a nice day, thank you so much.
Awesome Vid Clay and Steph!!..
Thank you Gunner!!
@@LifeByTheBow.. U all need to come to Cajun Country!! So. Louisiana !!!
Great video. I will miss the Contender as well. Seemed like a perfect boat.
We miss it too but she has a nice replacement coming! Appreciate you watching Tony
@@LifeByTheBow that’s awesome! Can’t wait to see it. We will be boating and fishing from Naples this December and can’t wait!
Great video. Looking forward to more sand bar videos too.
Thanks so much Max going to try another here soon!
Bite in the 🐶 Dog! Yeah! Stephanie said riding dirty 😂 Going to catch me riding dirty! 😆
Haha thanks Mark!
Great Video guys learning lots ...I have a bet going on your next boat with a buddy from work we are big fans or is it a surprise?
Thanks so much for watching William
Roughing it out on a Pathfinder...I think you'll be OK!! Great videos!!
Haha sure will thanks for watching!
Thank you for posting the recipe!!!!!!!!!
You’re very welcome Dean we appreciate your support on each and every video!
Hey congratulations on selling the Contender, I feel you on the bittersweet part but like cars, there will be other boats!! Excellent work wrangling those Lobsters guys, and what a pretty little reef you found to catch them in, but I couldn't help but notice that one of these things was not like the others,....Zack! lol That O'Neil shirt kind of stands out from the Avail shirts (which are obviously superior in every way) I imagine there was a fair amount of ribbing going on over your wardrobe choice, and lucky for you the ribbing will likely continue here in the comments section!! Stephanie, that dish looked Amazing, can you post the recipe please?! Thanks for letting us tag along on another "Life by the Bow" Adventure, no kidding it never gets old seeing that gorgeous blue water and the critters that dwell beneath those waves!!
Thanks so much for all your positive feedback my friend that’s why we keep these videos going! It’s funny you mentioned something about Zack shirt actually talked about this prior shooting the video and we’re talking about maybe doing some Avail rash guards. Sorry about the recipe, since your comment we added it to the video description our mistake. But thank you so much for watching!
@@LifeByTheBow Hey, I'm a disabled, fat, former jock. In my youth I played hockey and football and from High School on I played Rugby and even swam a couple competitions. I got my open water dive card when I was 14 and dove the Canadian West Coast and Mexico's Sea of Cortez. Now after having lost my right leg below the knee to diabetes type 2 I can only do as much as my prosthetic will allow, but I always keep pushing!! I'm trying to move into the closest major center, Edmonton AB so I can access public transit and get back to working again even something part time. I learned a long time ago that life is short and spinning your wheels is fun when your young but as you age you realize tires are expensive and you can go further being sensible over being brash. However while I am home and semi house bound, you have my complete attention!! lol Seriously, you shoot great footage and you tell a good story to go with it, I find you guys very fun to watch, you always make me smile, and that's a great thing in my World!!
Thanks for the recipe too!!
That is awesome! You are lassoing lobsters. Kind of makes you Key West Cowboys 🙂. BTW your shirts are great quality
That’s right we had so much fun using the snares for the first time! Thank you so much for watching and of course supporting us the Avail gear we’re so glad you love the shirts!
Nice video: nice choice of music, enjoyed the video quality as always.
Thanks Clay went really conservative and editing on this video took more time on sound design etc. always fun doing something different!
@@LifeByTheBow Mind sharing the track? It's very relaxing.
I don't think I can hold my breath that long.
With a little practice anything is possible! Thanks for watching.
Love watching you guys. I want to move to the keys.
Thanks so much my friend it’s an addicting lifestyle down here and we appreciate your support!
Hey Guys A big Hi from the UK we have recently discovered your channel whilst doing a bit of research for the Keys part of our trip in October.
Love the content, amazing photography,great fishing/florida life information.Keep up the good work.
Stephi I am a chef,recently moved back to the UK from 18 years in France owning a restaurant can i throw you some new appetizer ideas, ??love your ceviche
Sending you love Geoff & Nina
Thanks so much my friend really appreciate all the support!
@@LifeByTheBow Thanks for the reply We was watching your latest video at the time😁 Trip to Bimini looks amazing.
We have been to Florida many times over the past 20 years but not really got out on the water other than tourist boat trips and never fished but now want to catch and cook our dinner when we are in the Keys in October.
Is it ok for us to ask for some advice nearer the time and if you need a French trained Chef out on a trip You catch it and we will cook you up a meal😁 Regards to you all Geoff & Nina
Amazing nature
Thank you!
isnt it great to say "it just keeps on getting nastier out here" and the day is still magnificent?
Ha ha it is just Gotta make sure to get away from the wind thanks so much for watching Doug!
Loved the Clay is my man remix :)
Ha ha Stephanie always has a little jingles, thanks so much for watching Kevin !
I had to laugh. The scene where Stephanie was freestyling her new song. The drone pull away shot looked like she was just parked in the shallows singing to herself about her man and just couldn’t be happier. Kind of nutty, kind of cute. Happy happy happy.
Haha she’s a trip Al! Thanks for watching my friend!
@@LifeByTheBow no doubt!! You are lucky!
One AWESOME video!! Thank you!!
Thank you for watching!
Great video guys!!! Been a viewer and lurker since you all had about 4k subs.....awesome seeing you guys come up on the 150k milestone!! Can't wait to get our little 255 Sea Hunt down to the Keys from the NC coast....so jealous of the crystal clear water everywhere! We get some nice emerald green....but currents can affect clarity due to the Cape Fear River.....We wanna do a Bimini trip in 2023 so bad!!
Hey my friend thank you so much! Hopefully y’all can get down here soon.
That de-vein was a great tip!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks so much for watching!
Great video Clay and Stephanie,as usual! You mentioned the mask,I have a problem with water intrusion because of beard and mustache so I use a swimmers goggle. Is there a trick in using a mask with facial hair? Love you two and again great content!
Thanks for the input my friend! To be honest I’m not too sure!
