Another GREAT video! The only mistake here (and is a normal mistake In America) is to make a "Taco" with fish. the Mexican "tortilla" does not help with the fish flavors at all...is very practical indeed, but its own flavor overwhelm fish flavors... You are getting into a new world of flavors (Man, I encourage you to keep going!) I hope you are aware how big is your contribution to "eating better" for people. Trash Fish Vs Prime fish"...in your future cooking decisions always remember there's no trash fish. Normally "bait Fish" is the most flavorful fish (because fish are not stupid) if they are ugly, poisonous, full of bones...means they are protecting a "supreme taste". So, we need to learn the trick behind how to enjoy them. If they are a web of spines we can fillet them and spoon the meat out, making our new creation. If they are poisonous, we need to skip the poisonous part, and cook the flesh... If they are slimy or they rotten very quick, means their inside is great. Sometimes we skip the skin, when that part gives a superior taste protein (nutritional and tasty) And many times we skip the head or entrails, like the roe or swim bladder because we ignore their true value. Besides that, I strongly ask you: Be clear "Where are you fishing" so we have a good direction. Everybody dreams to replicate a stisfactory fishing day... Show "The things you use", and please put a link in descriptions so we gladly buy from your store, Saving fuel and "valuable time" buying from your store instead spending a day in Bass pro shop or Cabelas . (Don't feel ashy to do it, will be very appreciated, at the end is the most practical and cheap solution...just a clic away) Keep going on this direction, your show is getting better every day!!! Big Hug. (You've got a huge like, again!!) Fred. I will find you hopefully, and we'll catch (and cook) something together. So I can endorse what I say. LOL.
Thanks man! I throw as many useful links in my video descriptions. The fish taco thing is a bit weird, and it ends up resembling nothing like a fish dish (fish omelettes anyone?) Always appreciate your take on it, thanks!
FISH OMELLET! Man, you are beyond of your time! (Never heard, but great idea! LOL) Sounds great! (It deserves a try) About the useful links, location or etc. Just put them "inside" the video at beginning or end, because not everybody is aware how to deal with this "internet thing"...and it may be obvious for you, but is not really. Thanks for your response. And. finally, we thank you for what you are doing. Fred.
Caught a 7lb halibut a couple weeks ago and made tacos. Pan fried strips of fish dredged in flour cornmeal and salt. Good corn tortillas, lime and cilantro crema,Pico de Gallo and guacamole. Delicicioso! California style
It really depends on what sort of tortilla you use. Fresh homemeade tortillas will absolutely compliment fish. Store bought tortillas taste like chalk in comparison. Pico de Gallo on top of the fish is fantastic as well as a bit of salt and lime. But that's your preference on toppings.
Yes, Almost NOBODY has a Mexican Abuela (grandma) still making home made tortilla. Is a fact. Industrial made tortillas are the standard, and not suitable. And Pico de Gallo ( or salsa criolla, or the name it has in hundreds of countries) ...depends...if you put flaming hot habaneros in it, there is no flavor to taste...just fire and tortilla.
Your cooking skills are getting better by each video...got an awesome BBQ fish recipe for you. 1 Cup OJ 1/2 Cup BBQ sauce 2 Cloves crushed garlic 1 Gallon Ziploc Mix all together, add fish, let marinade for no longer than 1 hr.. Cook away...your fish will be slamming.. (Works best with firmer fish)
Here in Florida we have a fish that is referred to by some as a sand perch. We catch them offshore near to structure/reef but not on the structure/reef. They are only about 8-10" long. Very white firm flesh and very tasty. Don't know their range.
DAMN BOY!!!! 42k Subs, Elias. Seriously well done man!! Well earned though, so shouldn't be any kind of surprise to me really mate. Thanks again for another great video :) Edit: Gilt-Head Bream perhaps??!??!
Try to cook the left over fish head and bone with Japanese miso, green onion and some tofu, so those leftover will not go to waste. It will make an amazing soup!
Hi Elias its been a good idea to move to new area with new challange and new fishing adventure the last videos in ny become repetetive, I lean a lot of new stuff thanks man
love your videos bro. next time you make tacos though, use corn tortillas and fry them in a little oil first. you were eating raw flour wrapped around good fish, but you gave it a good shot for a dude from the east coast.
Nice one, never seen you keep that many fish. Tacos looks good for a white boy. Next time you keep that many fish send one to me here in South Carolina.
Nice vid man. Been watching you for a few years now since your channel pretty much started. If you get a chance check out our stuff. You videos influenced my filming a good bit. Keep it up man. I like your channel because you don't over hype excessive fake act, like black tip h haha. Your a real dude and a good fisherman. Liked and sub'd cheers.
How deep was the water / structure where the fish sustained an embolism? How often does it happen, and is a slow ascent the only preventative? ( Though it might also increase the chance of a "tax-audit" )
Please bro, please get a steel mesh glove. I have watched you for years. Every time I see you start filleting I cringe and get nervous. Watching you cutting toward your self I squint because one of these times your gunna stick your self!... Any ways awesome video as usual. Keep giving the south that beat down!
"Crappy bucktail" ... "Some weekend warrior's bucktail' ... I don't know how you boys do it up north but down here in the south when fishing a wreck we rarely go with the $30+ lures and stick to the cheaper WalMart $2 tackle. Being as we know we're likely to lose tackle on bottom structure like that, we generally drop the "crappy" stuff and don't sweat it when it gets left down there. Other than that, I enjoyed your video. It's really cute how you guys (Yaks) peddle & paddle your little water bicycles out in search of fish. Very hipster.
Another GREAT video!

Another awesome video, thanks for letting us tag along!👍👍
That's a Jolthead porgy..... nice.
You’ve single handedly made me want to get back into fishing again
Catch & Cook the secret recipe with 11 herbs and spices. Man those porgy filets look yummy !!!
I like the underwater view. It's always interesting to see what things look like. Add some more to your videos???
That was a White Bone Porgy and it is literally the Lobster of the fishes.
Very honorable of you to not let that fish suffer a worse death. No sarcasm 100% respect. Love the videos
HOLY SHIT THEM SHEEPHEADS......nothing but kings, spanish, ladies and reds out in the gulf
Your cooking skills are getting better by each video...got an awesome BBQ fish recipe for you.
1 Cup OJ
1/2 Cup BBQ sauce
2 Cloves crushed garlic
1 Gallon Ziploc
Mix all together, add fish, let marinade for no longer than 1 hr.. Cook away...your fish will be slamming..
(Works best with firmer fish)
I'm a weekend warrior fishing for Sheepshead that's a great video I learn new tips and techniques every time I watch your videos👍
It's good to see you in North Carolina my friend
Really love your Catch and Cook series.
Cooked a porgy whole on the grill yesterday. The way you did Black Sea bass. My nephew loved it. Said it taste like chicken.
Love that underwater camera view. I would really like to see more of that in the future.
Another great video bro thanks. Tight lines always !💯👍💖🐟🔥
Nice video I'm from NC. It cool to see you bring down the northern methods down south they work!
like your fish !
Another killer vid keep it up
Here in Florida we have a fish that is referred to by some as a sand perch. We catch them offshore near to structure/reef but not on the structure/reef. They are only about 8-10" long. Very white firm flesh and very tasty. Don't know their range.
You make a great taco man keep it up
Damn that's a jumpo sheepy. Great video man!
Oh no this is something bad !!! Best way to start a video ! Priceless
Whats ur favorite strain...mine is gelato
platinum OG is better
Keep catching Elias, awesome fishing and vid as always. From the other side of the pond 👍
Hey bro grunts are the best, just have a scrubber to clean the inside properly. Fry dry is the best way .
need to stop by beaufort and come do some spear fishing on the wrecks out here .
Next time CATCH & COOK: Winter Boot! (Surprising results!)
Porgies in Baha are great taco meat. Lady sells torts on the beach even.
Nice! Looked really good! I need to get out there and fish.
Love your videos! I am extremely late to the party being a NY saltwater fisherman. Glad to have found your channel though. Tight lines!
Seeing how clean and white the meat is I would even consider doing sashimi since the main thing it looks like it might eat is small crustaceans
DAMN BOY!!!! 42k Subs, Elias. Seriously well done man!! Well earned though, so shouldn't be any kind of surprise to me really mate. Thanks again for another great video :)
Edit: Gilt-Head Bream perhaps??!??!
Another awsome video elias! Love watching your videos man. Would love to have the chance to fish with you someday
Looks like you got a new camera on the boat. The resolution is amazing. Nice job.
Awesome vid as always!!!!
Aye nice
Try to cook the left over fish head and bone with Japanese miso, green onion and some tofu, so those leftover will not go to waste. It will make an amazing soup!
looks delicious
The only standout fish taco i’ve ever made was with cobia
Put a crunchy taco inside the soft taco, the added texture is awesome. Regardless, the tacos looked bomb
“Weekend warrior” lol most people have a job that they work during the week
I would love to link up with you and go fishing , your vids are awesome.
A weekend warriors bucktail lol didn't know there was one.
A banana shape and 3 oz too heavy!
yea man, jolted is a lot like the porgy you had in florida. nice firm white meat.
yum
I can't wait for you to hook into a skate or something.. that will be funny. Would make for an interesting catch n cook too.
The spots on the porgy disappeared after being in the fish bag. Weird.
Subbed
Hi Elias its been a good idea to move to new area with new challange and new fishing adventure the last videos in ny become repetetive, I lean a lot of new stuff thanks man
Elias got that chili P
You should do more catch and cook
love your videos bro. next time you make tacos though, use corn tortillas and fry them in a little oil first. you were eating raw flour wrapped around good fish, but you gave it a good shot for a dude from the east coast.
Nice one, never seen you keep that many fish. Tacos looks good for a white boy. Next time you keep that many fish send one to me here in South Carolina.
Ring tails are the shit
Whitebone Porgy? Almost looks like a Grass Porgy, but more like Whitebone. Tastes better than Scup to me. Grass Porgy is good too is you spot one.
Do a catch and cook grass porgy
Probably a species of sea bream related to a porgy. Similar but probably not the exact same species from what we catch up north.
A lot milder also
Man look good
Hey E, just an FYI. Most of your subs are weekend warriors.
No shit right
looked awesome bro!!! when you coming back to Tampa?
Nice vid man. Been watching you for a few years now since your channel pretty much started. If you get a chance check out our stuff. You videos influenced my filming a good bit. Keep it up man. I like your channel because you don't over hype excessive fake act, like black tip h haha. Your a real dude and a good fisherman. Liked and sub'd cheers.
Think sardine family you can't loose
come down on the sound bound in the Long Island sound. We fish for porgy and catch our limits within 30 minutes
Which reef are you fishing?
Ring tails? Is that like a spot fish, atleast that's what we call them in Florida
Does kastking not have prostaff team anymore? I noticed you and the other guys are not on the website anymore
Hey great video like always. Glad to see your doing good down their. But quick question is that fish bag the large or small one on your yak ?
Jose Cerqueira large one
Nice fishing.question Can I catch a striper whit this rod tsunamy coastal
Yep!
Thanks elias for answer my question.
How do their intestines blow out like that? Do they just herniate from fighting too hard?
Kyle Russo fast change in water pressure,
How deep was the water / structure where the fish sustained an embolism? How often does it happen, and is a slow ascent the only preventative? ( Though it might also increase the chance of a "tax-audit" )
Woody Stemms 50 foot. Rare but it happens
Please bro, please get a steel mesh glove. I have watched you for years. Every time I see you start filleting I cringe and get nervous. Watching you cutting toward your self I squint because one of these times your gunna stick your self!... Any ways awesome video as usual. Keep giving the south that beat down!
Daammm Elias did you eat all of those tacos lol
You know it
What does it mean when you blow out the fish's intestines???
They explode from being reeled in from deep depths
I really enjoyed your videos until this one
Where are you?
North Carolina
Daiwa fuego ?
Crisfar Toscano R.I.P.
EliasVFishing how it happened? It broke down?
Are we just brushing past "fish taco" and not laughing like teenagers? Ok
Surprised it took that long for someone to nail it.

The people who gave this a thumbs down must of been white! Lol
SHEEP....head

Nice job on the fillet and cook ! Look so dam good !!
Gotta love the Chili-P
