Florida Keys Reef Fishing and Deep Drop! (Catch N' Cook)
What's up y'all! We are back with another week of some awesome fishing! This time we have traveled with the Hatuna Matata all the way from Maryland to the Florida Keys. This is now Day 3 in the Florida keys and we have just gotten back from day 1in the Bahamas. It has been an absolutely amazing experience and can't wait to have you guys check in!
We start off with some simple reef fishing and wreck fishing to target mutton snapper, grouper, and other reef species. In doing so we got absolutely slammed by trigger fish and couldn't get our baits to the bottom.
We later transitioned into deep dropping the Islamorada humps and it was some slower fishing but we did land a few fish!
We then get back filet some fish and head up to the kitchen to make an amazing parmesan pesto covered trigger fish! Come along and check it out!
seriously, we appreciate you watching and look forward to bringing more content!

Maryland to The Bahamas with a 26 Foot Boat... Fishing in Bimini Bahamas
zhlédnutí 456Před měsícem
Come with us as we load up to drive from Maryland to Key Largo. As we arrive in Key largo we see a fantastic weather window to cross to the Bahamas. Bimini is about 52 miles off the coast of Florida and approximately 822 miles from the state of Maryland. We arrive in the Bahamas for a quick 1 day trip and make the best of it. Local Bahamian Dre jumps on the boat with us to teach us the beautifu...

SAVE THE BAY and Catch a BLUE CATFISH!
zhlédnutí 735Před 4 měsíci
In this video we head out with the skiff we built, to target the Blue Catfish. These Blue Cats are killing our bay by eating all of our blue crabs, what Maryland is known for. These are invasive species and the more we get them out, the safer our crab population will be. Hope you enjoy the video!

    Im not from your neck of the woods, im WAY far south of y'all so im gonna ask a few questions. Are these fresh water blue cats? Is the water fresh,salt,or brackish? There are ocean catfish that i have caught many times but im assuming these aren't those same cats? How are these catfish you are after invasive?? Where did they come from? From one fisherman to another i thank you for the info in advance.

    • @hatunamatataoutdoors
      @hatunamatataoutdoors Před 4 měsíci

      Yeah for sure! Thanks for reaching out! These are your typical fresh water blue cats that are native to Mississippi, Missouri, and Ohio. This water is going to be more brackish but the bluecats have developed a higher tolerance to salinity allowing them to over populate in the Chesapeake Bay more so than what was originally believed. These aren't going to be your ocean catfish, I believe those are hardhead catfish. These catfish are invasive more so to the fact that they don't belong in our bay they're in the freshwater rivers. It really wouldn't be a big deal outside of the fact that they are destroying our blue crab population. I am a commercial blue crabber and have had a heck of a time getting bushels due to lack of population. When cut open the belly of a blue cat (since they're bottom feeders) it is all baby crabs and blue crabs, females, and soft shells. I believe I answered everything to the best of my knowledge. If you have any other questions feel free to reach out to me on instagram @captn_ford or hatunamatatasportfishing would love to talk more!
