2 Nights Aboard | Catch & Cook 1st Speared Fish!

- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Finally made it happen! This 3-day overnighter on the C-Dory 22 had a few firsts. First time spearing and cooking a fish aboard, first time testing the ICECO Fridge running off the solar panels and first time flying the drone around the boat! I will say it was a great time even though I ruined my camera in the water.... Now we are better equipped and experienced for bigger and better adventures!

Trip! We just found a 2008 C-Dory 22 Cruiser and picked it up yesterday. I've been binging your videos since we found the listing last weekend, crossing my fingers that we'd complete the sale (and the travel - which included putting it on the Cross Sound Ferry). Your videos are so entertaining and inspiring and informative - especially to a couple of brand new C-brats!! Thank you!
Wait what..... An hour long episode and a drone!!! I'm happier than a pig in slop right now!!! Always a pleasure Trip. LET'S GOOOOO!!! 🛥️💪😎
BOOM! You are welcome sir!!!!
watching your videos has really inspired me to “get out there” i just picked up a boat the other day and i’m ready for some adventures! hoping to make a skif rally or a rock a dock adventure soon
Trip you throwed your Crab bait away ( Fish Carcass ) I think someone cleaned you out . Enjoyed it
I think you did a great job on the crab traps, what I do believe is that somebody got your crabs.
Lol Thanks Cristina! Surely not.....
Honestly this has to be the best sponsor I've seen for my personal health.
Great video as always Trip. I really enjoyed it and appreciate you taking us along. A real nice escape for me on a Monday morning. God bless buddy
Thanks Kenneth! Glad you enjoyed it bud.... Have a great week!
enjoyed your clip about spearfishing..glad you made it work....
and Im puzzled by the chicken necks being gone completely....who knows? but anytime you catch a fish...save the leftovers to put in your crab traps...
Thanks gerald! Yea... good thinking!
I knew that fridge would be fine on your solar setup. It's simple math! And a big vote here for the Bahamas. So much more to see and do than the Tortugas.
Yea..... When I calculated the power usage I didn't account for the fridge cycling on and off.... lol Bahamas, yea you are right... much more to see!!!
man, you are living my dream, getting out on the water with this little boat that has so much comforts. solar power and refrigerator are surely an extra plus for longer trips. personally i'd expand more on the galley, cause i like cooking, and maybe a proper berth up in the bow. Great job on all the fixes and customisation, especially after that lightning strike!
Doing my best! Thanks for watching and for the great comment doc!
Great video Trip. The boat is awesome. Glad you are enjoying it. Keep the videos coming. Thanks
Thankya Dave! Will do my freind!
My suggestion for everyone to read is "With The Old Breed, on Okinawa and Peleliu". By H.E. Sledge. Everyone needs too, that values their freedoms.
I dont know how Gulf crabbing goes, but here in Oregon what works best is Mink, or if you are using chicken, let it sit in the sun in its bag for at least 4 hours. The smellier, the better. Depth for what I have done doesnt matter. Ive dropped shallow and deep. When trying out a new spot, let the pot sit for about 30 minutes minimum. The bigger the catch, the better the location. Awesome videos Trip. Watching your kayaking trips is what got me into hammock camping and kayaking. Keep it up and God bless
Trip.... That lure you were trolling with is a MR17 used for trout fishing. It a cast and retrieve lure. Try trolling some clark spoons with a planer board, a deep diving hard plastic, or a soft plastic with a paddle tail on a heavy jig head next time. Throw that lure you were using in grass flats and points 8-15 ft deep and you will catch some trout. Best wishes brother and I hope this was helpful. 😎👍
That boat is awesome
I love her Mike....
I love your the food choices it never gets old
Dang Trip you have the coolest time. I love the boat. You got the life , man.
Trying to make the best of my time ;) Thanks for watching!
Trip Dip.....what's up my sardine loving adventurer.
Ha! High on life!
Love the boat trip videos. Can't wait to see more trolling and spear fishing on these trips.
Quick drone tip, open up the camera settings and turn your camera grid on. Then you can center your boat or whatever your focus is and it’ll look 100 times better
I work remodeled homes and renovations. I just use a regular wash rag soaked in regular water. To wipe my neck and face. The evaporated moisture cools you instantly without a cost besides missed production when you would wipe the sweat from your face anyways. When the wet wash rag gets to your body temperature just toss it like pizza dough in the air and it will feel ten degrees cooler.
Man you got it all figured out
All 3 trips sound awesome
Very nice boat .. good times I love the water as well .. and you make some awesome videos 👍👍
Much appreciated Anthony! Got to love the water!!!!
I kayaked 10 miles of the pea river yesterday thanks to you btw. I really enjoy your videos, very informative of the areas I want to go.
Oh very nice!!!!
The Keys or the Dry Tortugas would be awesome! Heard the fishing is second to none out in the Tortugas.
I agree MoFo.... I think the weather will be the main determining factor.
Hoping you film the installation of the permanent solar panels. I'm kicking around the idea for my 22 as well. We presently use an old Nordic ac/dc fridge that serves us well. The biggest thing I've found is to cool it off a day or 2 before heading out using shore power. Initial cooling with the compressor running constantly is a heavy load on batteries.
Take a look at "Out on the reef " on here. He just returned from the tortugas. Hands down, one of his best trips ever.
Oh yea, I'll be filming the install. Yes, I pre cool my fridge and my coolers before heading out ;) Maybe I'll go check that video of his out!
@@TripSmith this is actually a series of videos where he did this trip. All in his 21 Parker. He's done some pretty amazing additions to that boat too.
Trip is good at EVERTHING except... fishing.
Best boat ever, exercise, repairs, RUclips channel, being a cool dad, cooking, living healthy, being positive attitude, efficiency, EVERYTHING.....
but.... catching a fish? Nope. And I can't understand why?
It's Florida. He should be STROKING the fish. Literally a shoestring on a hook and you'll catch a trout.
But.... in his defense.... He never claimed to be a fishing show. It's a mini yatch show and having fun in Florida.
I wish I could spend 2 hours talking with him.... I could knock out 90% of the learning curve. It's easy to get decent and desent in Florida is GREAT compared to the rest of the world.
Thanks for the great clips Trip.
I always like a Trip clip.
I enjoy seeing the snacks. I don't eat anything between my one, two, or zero meals a day. I actually only eat when I'm hungry and it's not normally regular eating time. But I've been 6'2" 187lbs for 23 years now. I turned 40 today. I'm a Texan though and only try to eat things that are deep fried and fattening. I had avacado and lettuce on my spicy carne assada taco yesterday though.
Love seeing your content as always and glad you are enjoying the C Dory! Especially after the whole lightening thing.. You are an inspiration to many sir. Still a little surprised you dont have a kicker motor. Just something to think about. Keep it up!
I would love to have a c dory. I never seen one in person but I know l could have some fun with it.
Got my T shirt... fits great!!...... now to make it to a sand bar......
Hey awesome Johnny! Glad to hear that buddy. Yes, find yourself some Sunshine & Sandbars!!!!! (see what he is talking about here - tripsmith.live/product/sunshine-sandbars-tee/)
@@TripSmith you should of told I whould came by and said hi
I have a large rigid solar panel new if you want it. I could bring to rock a dock.
When ya get that second panel up, it would be epic to set up a jam session on the sea 🌊🎸
I’m over in fort walton beach, and would absolutely love to help out with that 🤘
I want to see a Bimini Trip dip.
Love that boat 🛥 👍😎
You and me both Joe!
I think someone stole your crabs.
Well, I hope so because I hope I should have caught something.....
Thanks for the video and sharing your adventures. Love the boat! Glad you got some drone shots too. Drones are fun. I have a couple myself.
I’m excited
Glad to hear that Michael!
Bahamas but any of those would be awesome!
You know ur gonna have to do this trip all over again with ur underwater camera now 😂
@ 55:10 i miss the sound of that motor starting up when i had a boat
Bahamas for sure
Dry Tartugas!!!!!
Great stuff! Completely empty crab traps ? Seems like someone emptied them for you. ?!?!
Why thankya! Yea man.... surely they wouldn't have been empty lol
I dunno, sounds like my kinda fishin lol
You could go to the bahamas :)
Move the compass to the area next to the windshield away from metal.
That might be a good move..... I need to compare it to my GPS I guess?
You mentioned solar power, a time or two. A lot of van/bus conversions and off grid houses use solar. Might be worth picking some of their brains. Also, I hope your other spear has a detachable tip. They seem to hold the fish better, according to the RUclips videos I watch(which makes me, practically, an expert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Awesome video. Keep them coming.
What hat is that? Looks awesome.
You got any paddle board or kayak trips coming up?
I thought I saw you in the bay!
The Bahamas
Bahamas first! Great video as always.
I hope so! Thanks Smak!
New sub ! Liked ✌️👍🙏🙏
watch out for that Cipro if you like your tendons.
Huh? I don't follow.... But it sounds interesting
Nice video man (looking buff btw)
Glad you enjoyed it! lol thanks....
What is the brand for your Bimini extended from the roof? I've been trying to find one that looks and fit that well.
TRIPPPPPPPP DIP!!!!
Yea!!!!!!! lol
Do you have to switch of the lights in boat, is it not a hazard for passing by boats? Always a pleasure to watch your adventures.
Yeah, the boats cool but I subscribed because of the kayaking, not really into the whole boat thing...are you getting back to paddling or will it be just the boat from here?
I want to see the Bahamas please and thank you sir
I'll do my best for ya buddy!
Put your traps in the muddy bays.
That sounds like a good idea.... Thanks K H!
Rewatching this video, I’m almost certain someone dumped the crab pots
Man who knows.... I would hope folks wouldn't do that very much......
that boat is great dude..is it hot in the cabin......
I do love the boat.... Nah, it's not hot in there. Great to able to get out of the ☀️
Great vid man.
Are you still happy with the c-dory purchase?
There is one for sale like yours at PC beach.
That book was a good read thanks to your recommendation. I hope she improved with preventative maintenance as she got older. What kind of fish did you catch?
Glad you enjoyed it! Mangrove Snapper 😎🤙
if you are going to the Keys you should check out Key West Waterman channel
what's that hat you are wearing? I totally need one!
The shrimp boat was somebody’s I know. Boat caught fire and got big to fast so couldn’t get back into the cabin to get life jackets so pointed the boat to shore and jumped off with coolers and flagged down a tug boat with the flash light on his phone
Oh wow! Crazy...
Trip would starve if he had to rely on his hunting and fishing skills to feed himself
Hey trip did you have the cages set out while you were getting it through the water? Cause maybe the water dissolved the bait enough to go through the cage as you were traveling… just a thought buddy. That was a thought I had as I watched the video.
No.... I wouldn't not be dragging the pots for any reason ;)
Ohhhhh please do the Bahamas. where would you leave from? I wanna see that. Hek, I wanna do that. I'm from dothan as well btw.
Trying to make it happen. I'm not exactly sure where I'd cross over from.... I need to do more specific research on what area I want to first explore....
Whats the size limit on mangroves there? That one looked short, lol
About that short..... lol
I think ur letting ur crab traps soak to long. I’d try letting them soak 6-8 hrs
Commercial crabers use shrimp heads
I need some! lol
What drone did you get?
That's the DJI Mini 3. Pretty neat thing...
What kind of drone do u have ?
That's the DJI Mini 3 ;)
Go to the keys first
The water is so hot on the flats this time of year which why you weren’t seeing more fish on them.
Although you can catch them up there at first light.
You really need to maybe take a few trips with a guide or buddy who knows how to fish inshore saltwater because most of your trips are in phenomenal inshore fishing areas.
Either way you’re trips are always entertaining but you would definitely eat better if you’re fishing skills were better but maybe this spear fishing deal will be your thing.
I agree with you 100%! I need to get some local guidance... Hopefully the spear will play out well
With your popularity I would think local guides would jump at the opportunity to take you just for the amount of exposure it would bring to them if they allowed you to film the trip.
For that matter you’ve got plenty of fellow RUclipsr’s close to you that are great fisherman.
Maybe you could do a few trips with Angler up with Brant he’s just south of you in Pensacola that would definitely be entertaining as both of you guys are hilarious.
Salt is salt. There's no difference in good and bad. NaCl is just salt.
Trip check out the key west waterman RUclips channel.
I've peaked at his stuff. Never watched any....
@@TripSmith I think it would be an interesting day on the water diving and spear fishing with him down there.
@@Jerryshipping12 Oh there is no doubt about that. I thought you meant I need to go watch his stuff
The Bahamas could be cool to see, but I don't like that they demand everyone register.
FYI......The Bahamas are a foreign country, everybody must register.
@@ericmarks6322 The pirates would be rolling in their graves. What a disgrace.
someone pulled your pots. you would have had bones left.
Yea.... who knows..... I would have loved to have had them full!
Love your videos. You inspire me but I could use your Christian brotherly advice to help me on more than one way. Doubt I will here back from ya sir
Yo, what's up?
Your content was way way better when we got to see more than the cabin of your boat. Everyone changes just like your content. I've seen that Alaskan crabbing show and this is just depressing honestly. Put a hammock on a tree again. It's kinda sad you've became a boat glamper.

I’ve never crabbed on the East coast, but if it’s anything like catching Dungies, you’re likely leaving your pots out for way too long. Check those ones every 30 minutes. You could also try ring traps - leave those down for 10-15 minutes.
