Waterlands are made in Malaysia. Wonder what the work conditions are like there. You could just flip the W over to make an M, for Mugatu. And they're incredibly poor quality for something that's over $120. But you get a commission, so that's alright.
New Subscriber! I’m NOT AT ALL A Fisherman but my husband works on a charter boat out of Boston catching Stripe Bass and Tuna. My son is a big fisherman. Fished in Florida once on the lakes for bass,, OMGGG THEYRE HUGE down there! Gators were terrifying not gonna lie, we don’t have gators and Boston that’s for sure! Such great videos so informative! Doesn’t surprise me you do so well on your channel you’re very personable and a Go-Getter. You will do VERY WELLL in life!
Those red stringy things on the mahi (17:42) are parasitic copepods, aka anchor worms. I've personally noticed them a lot more recently on some of our northeastern fish species, especially adult menhaden.
I think you meant that those parasites were on the mahi, and you're right, we have them on our mahis in Hawaii too. They look like fringy parts of the fins and are a little off putting!
The Hammer head is my favorite fish. I'm 52 and have never even seen the ocean but i really enjoy watching you guys catch all these different fish. I also have a fishing channel- it's all fresh water fishin. Looking forward to next episode 👍
you have got to get to the ocean. i could never live any more than an hour from the sea. its the most natural thing you could experience, it just feels right.
Thank you for the information about ciguatera poisoning and the fact that around where you fish it is extremely rare. What I've heard that if you put a piece of the barracuda out and the bugs and ants start eating it, that is an indication that the meat does not have the toxins. I loved all the variety of fish that you caught in two days. That hammerhead and the sailfish fight was awesome! We have caught some bigger barracudas in the Bahamas. The locals had no problems cooking and eating it. It was delicious! Amazing video as always.
Not as into fishing as much as I was when I was younger, but I just stumbled across your channel tonight and I’ll say this, your content is the best fishing content on RUclips imo. In my younger days we’d take an all night charter deep sea fishing trip once or twice a year in Panama City!
Constructive criticism and this may be an unpopular opinion. But I’m not a fan on the enhanced edited teeth. I think the actual thumbnail would be gnarly enough . No hate, I’m a fan of your content . I also commented on IG about the fin deformity on the Mahi. The “webbing “ just didn’t develop.
I second this opinion. The fake teeth are too much. Viktor you have good enough content and enough subscribers at this point you don't need to do the clickbaity stuff.
It's not that serious. You must live a coddled life if that bothers you so much. Go experience some hardship. Grown men complaining about the silliest of things. Super cringe.
Oh no, enhanced teeth on a thumbnail. Come on guys, the dude is trying to make a living and you're complaining on his job site like a Karen of something so minuscule. Just enjoy the content and try not to be offended by the thumbnails.
@@katlislet’s get this clear . I’m not complaining nor am I offended . We (me, you, them) are the consumer/end user. Part of the success of ANY channel is feedback from the fan-base . Yes, I am a fan of the channel and I’ve been following from basically the beginning, my comment/suggestion was constructive criticism with no malice intended. I didn’t bash the page, Victor or the content. Just a fan suggestion and apparently I wasn’t the only one that felt it wasn’t needed. Simple simple, no Karen here.
I hate these fish, not to do with the meat. I am a spearfisherman, and when I dive reefs, often they stay hidden or hang around some bit away from you. As soon as you turn your back however, they come real close and give you that death stare same that they do to their prey. I’m not scared of sharks. I’ve had it once where a barracuda has followed me for a whole dive, I’ve had to scare it away, thinking I’m safe, only to find 10 minutes later this 1.5 meter beast with teeth like knives has followed and stalked me back to the boat and is a mere few feet from me. It gave me a jumpscare. I was kinda done for the day.
@@jamalregis190that’s what happened. I was taking all my spearing equipment off in the water so that I could climb into the boat easy. Then as I am taking off my belt, I see coming around the other side of the boat that same cuda. At first looking disinterested, a few meters away, I’m obviously shocked or surprised because I thought I had scared it away. Then it turns it’s head to make a straight b line for me. That’s when I get out of the water.
My old coworker told me about a time when he was learning to be an underwater welder, and one of his peers was wearing a silver chain. When they dove all together, they got to where they were going, and the instructor grabbed that person's head and shoved it down in front of his body. My coworker said he only saw a sliver of flash whiz by, and so the instructor immediately signaled to go surface. And once they talked, he clarified that the barracuda would've chewed that guy's neck up if he didn't react as soon as he did.
I'd love to fish like you can for a day. I haven't been able to fish for years due to work and trying to find better work and pay, which hasn't happened. Much love man. I hope you get some great catches soon! Good luck on the water, buddy.
Loved the video. We caught 7 or so in a charter in Aruba 2 years ago. Did a RUclips video of the catch, clean and cook on our channel. Cooked it as fish tacos and blackened like how you did. Both were excellent and you’re right about everyone knocking it.
The smell is caused by trimethylamine oxide (TMAO) in their flesh. When the fish is stressed or dies, TMAO breaks down into trimethylamine (TMA), which has a strong, unpleasant odor resembling ammonia or rotting fish.
Great video love catching barracuda out here on the West Coast. Thank you for the discount code. Just went and bought a whole bunch of Dexter knives looking to buy a case couldn’t find it.
Biggest fish I’ve caught so far was a 7ft hammerhead out of a 12ft kayak off of Destin FL. I hooked him half a mile off the beach while Cobia fishing and two hours later he’d drug me 2 miles offshore before I finally got him close enough to touch the leader before cutting him off as close to the hook as I could
I'm from Jamaica and we love barracuda. It's one of the best fish in the ocean. And everywhere you go in the Caribbean they eat it. It's juicy and full of flavor.
The quality of the fish is always determined by how you treat it when you catch it and dispatch it. Bleed out everything and ice bath it immediately. That's the golden rule. Then just don't be a bad chef. Victor, you're a great seafood chef. Appreciate you, brother.🍻🎣👍
Dang man. That looks amazing. You outta open a restaurant. You definitely know what you are doing catching, cleaning, and cooking fish. Nice work Vic. 🤙
Victor an Brook I live in a million dollar house I'm getting poorer by the day an I'm starving. Can I come over for dinner sometime! Lol 😂. Love the vid an always the family cook. People need to do this every week !!! I don't care if it's PBJ get together with one another. Respect from Readyville Tn! God Bless y'all.
I can say, from the stand point of someone who has HAD Bara poisoning. It was two weeks of Hell that I would NEVER hope to experience again. I was lucky. I was neither killed or blinded. But I PRAYED for an end before I got better. I will never chance it again. As much as I loved it before. 😞
Good job as always Vic, greetings from Nettles Island! Starting to catch some Pomps near the inlet (inside), I'm sure you already have them. Best wishes to you and your bride!
Hey! Great video! I was thinkin, why not try making a bait hoop net with some of Brooke's clear plastic she uses for the lobster nets. Im sure the bait hoops are patented but, you could try making one for you to use on your fishing tripsto see if that improves your bait catch when chumming. Keep up the good work.
Love the video as usual great content and I know what you mean cuda is awesome my son and I took a charter at Boynton beach last week all we caught was two cuda we kept them and took some to deck 84 for tacos and blackened it was amazing sooooo good the guy who seated us was surprised we even brought it in lol
Absolutely love all parts of your videos, but my favorite is the camera angle, showing the bite! Those take downs are awesome! The tug is the drug, thanks for sharing those parts. Keep up the good work, we need tropical fish to dream about up here in the Pacific Northwest
Victor it looks like you can make a mean fish sandwich 🥪 I been watching your videos for 4 years now one thing I got to say your cooking is getting. Better and better each time you cook I wish I can have one of those fish 🐟 sandwiches I am hungry good job 😊
Video suggestion for catch cook -flying fish -whiting (gulf kingfish) -lizard fish - striped red mullet (it’s actually a goatfish found in the Mediterranean Sea but maybe you could just do a goatfish species that’s closer to where you live I just know that species I mention is known for its taste)
Love the video, happy 2024 you guys are going in strong! Whats your thoughts on zip locking fish after cleaning and freezing in water for freshness if it will be a few weeks?
I'm from Massachusetts and live watching your videos if your ever down here again in the summer around August you should try pot hopping for mahi we don't get many big ones but it is loads of fun also love the vids
Great channel Vic! Not sure why I have not seen you before. Really great catch and cook videos and love how you do it in almost every video that I have watched so far. Keep them coming.
Definitely a ton of fish out there that outfight Muskies I agree with you on that! For me it's the thrill of the hunt, how the stalk a bait and hit beside the boat. As a freshwater angler in Ontario, they are definitely my favorite fish to target.
This reminded me of a deep sea fishing trip I went on with a coworker. My coworker asked me if I wanted to join the boat's pool of the largest fist catch of the day. I said sure and thought nothing of it after that. We were sitting in the gally talking on the way back to sore when we just happen to hear the crew begin comparing the pool catch of the day. So, not thinking we had any chance of winning. Someone pulled a halibut out of a bag and everyone said, "that's it. That's the winner". Until they opened the last bag that happened to be my bag. As soon as the deck hand pulled out my barracuda, the crowd all said "oooh"! at the same time. My barracuda was the largest fish caught that day. I took the pool. Shared it with my coworker. It paid for out total expenses for that day. I took it home and my sister cooked everything I caught. The barracuda was one of the best tasting fish that I caught that day. There was only one other fish that tasted better, but I don't remember the name of that fish. It was orange and had a spinney back that we all were warned not to touch because it causes swelling and a lot of pain if you are stung by it. That orange colored fish was one of the best tasting fish I have ever tasted. I think it is called a sculpin or California scorpionfish. The barracuda wasn't bad either.
Tartar sauce suggestion: add some canned diced jalapeños. I fry fish for several people and make 1/2 with jalapeño & half plain. The spice tartar is always a big hit.
best tartar sauce i have ever tasted was at the golden union restaurant on poland street in london (they offer several types of fish for their wonderful fish and chips), it was similar to what you made, but had lots of chopped fresh dill in it, hands down, the dill made it special
My mind is blown. I was raised in Deerfield Beach and fished on the pier many times. Every old man would tell me Barracuda were trash, and like the title says, "toxic." Now I need to find some barracuda to eat!
Some dolphin after birth have vibrisse or laungo, both usually fall off after birth but some still have it. Most of this information comes from pages of studies done on Dolphins and porpoises.
Barracuda out near the LA coast is more pink and so is the Mahi too. Barracuda here have smaller heads, need to be 28 inches to be legal, grow pretty big over here. Mahi are rare in Cali but the passed two years have been phenomenal and their meat is reminiscent of Yellowtail(Hamachi). If you're ever out in Cali again Vik, try catching Mahi, Cuda and Yellowtail to compare the 3
I’ll be in fort pierce Florida soon and I love fishing and I watch your videos all the time. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what I should target in the surf. I’ve never been to Flo before and I’ll be surf fishing and fishing the Indian river lagoon as well
I've noticed the Mustad brand on you a lot, and it's funny because even though it's a Norwegian brand, my roommate and I in the Downeast area of the Northeast pronounce it the way an old Downeaster would pronounce Mustard. (Muhstuhd)
Can you program a drone to follow a lure’s every movement? Say you’re using a big popper, would a big popper be large enough for the drone to use object recognition so you can get epic top water eats without having to control the drone? Would be wicked to see it capture the footage if it’s hovering and following 10 ft above your popper…
I ate Barracuda in Egypt when SCUBA diving in the Red Sea. The dive boat threw a lure off the back of the boat, caught a big Barra and threw it on the grill.. Wasn't bad!
I think it’s funny what you said about the smell of Cuda when you catch them putting people off. I have eaten them in Mexico and Jamaica. Delicious. You know what absolutely stinks when you catch them and is sought after and expensive world wide? King salmon. They absolutely reek. Nothing about them smells good when you catch them, yet look at the price of them. I think it has more to do with what you are told as a child than the smell. You grow up believing a fish is trash then you find excuses to not try them.

@@jeredalmeida1880 it was a female.
My first sub was the USS Menhaden SS 377 good ol boat .Decommissioned in Aug, 1971.
The agility of sharks is due to them having cartilage and not bones. Absolutely one of the most amazing fish IMO!

@@FishermanKyleyep turned down nice jobs to stay near the ocean. 52 and never seen the ocean??? That's unimaginable.

Unfortunately there’s no evidence of that test actually working. I wish it did work because that’d be really convenient

-flying fish
-whiting (gulf kingfish)
-lizard fish
- striped red mullet (it’s actually a goatfish found in the Mediterranean Sea but maybe you could just do a goatfish species that’s closer to where you live I just know that species I mention is known for its taste)

Awesome video guys!!! The restaurants wish they had fish sandwiches that looked that good! See y'all next time.
Hahaha thank you
Ontario muskie fishermen here! My brain can't help but compare cudas to Muskies, they're salt water Muskies to me haha. Awesome content
It’s a great comparison
As a fellow muskie fisherwomen I would agree 🪝.
They absolutely are!
Meh, Cudas actually pull some drag.
Definitely a ton of fish out there that outfight Muskies I agree with you on that! For me it's the thrill of the hunt, how the stalk a bait and hit beside the boat. As a freshwater angler in Ontario, they are definitely my favorite fish to target.

I’ll be in fort pierce Florida soon and I love fishing and I watch your videos all the time. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what I should target in the surf. I’ve never been to Flo before and I’ll be surf fishing and fishing the Indian river lagoon as well
Victor what is your size reel? That you're using for tuna. And what size test are you using
I’ve seen that on Mahi, it’s a parasite. I’ve seen it on a few other Pelagic’s.
I've noticed the Mustad brand on you a lot, and it's funny because even though it's a Norwegian brand, my roommate and I in the Downeast area of the Northeast pronounce it the way an old Downeaster would pronounce Mustard. (Muhstuhd)
Great job guys cool release
Wonderful food, beautiful family 🤍💙
Fun video. Your tartar sauce recipe is so good. I cheat and use dill or sweet relish already made.
Can you program a drone to follow a lure’s every movement? Say you’re using a big popper, would a big popper be large enough for the drone to use object recognition so you can get epic top water eats without having to control the drone? Would be wicked to see it capture the footage if it’s hovering and following 10 ft above your popper…
hey., maybe something bit off bottom fin on the way up? looks like my aquarium fish after a battle.
I ate Barracuda in Egypt when SCUBA diving in the Red Sea. The dive boat threw a lure off the back of the boat, caught a big Barra and threw it on the grill.. Wasn't bad!
Bro was trolling that hammerhead shark😂😂😂😂
That hammerhead was insanely powerful. You don't realize how powerful they are until you see them move all that water chasing prey.
Yeah, u had me till u threw the roe away. I love that stuff!
Wow..good😊😍
Just curious… why not scale the cuda first before filleting?
i’ve seen the comments of clickbait but i didn’t think it was this bad cool vids but damn bro 😂
WOOOW i tought hammerhead sharks were extinct im so happy to see this its always been my favorite shark.❤
Just curious why not use black cast iron when blackening the fish?
yall need to come up to lake erie and go out fishing for some walleye with me
Very amazing big fish strike, I hope your day is always happy my friend, the big fish was immediately processed 👍👍
I think it’s funny what you said about the smell of Cuda when you catch them putting people off. I have eaten them in Mexico and Jamaica. Delicious. You know what absolutely stinks when you catch them and is sought after and expensive world wide? King salmon. They absolutely reek. Nothing about them smells good when you catch them, yet look at the price of them. I think it has more to do with what you are told as a child than the smell. You grow up believing a fish is trash then you find excuses to not try them.
for me its conger eel....I cannot handle that smell
alright time for the ultimate vic cook off, MasterChef time lmao
Vik. Where can I score one of those landshark white long sleeve shirts. I want one. Thx!
Great job ❤❤❤
