Also thanks to all of our new and existing subscribers.. We love you all!
I’m sorry but I have to respectfully correct you at 0:05. Marmoreal Day isn’t meant to show respect for those who fight for our freedom but it’s actually intended to pay respect for those who have fallen while fighting for our freedom. I still love the video though! I gotta say, down here in Key West the sandbars get crazy too, my favorite sandbar is Snipes out in the back islands of the FL Keys on the Gulf side! Happy Memorial Day!
Thank you.
You said it before I could.
The production value on these videos is amazing! Great work!
Literally my new favorite husband and wife duo! These 2 together are couple goals and beyond! I found this channel last week while daydreaming about fishing and so happy that I did. The quality of every video almost seems better than the last. BIG HI5 to you both!!
its 2 men
Great job setting expectations for the Sandbar experience. We’re there just about every weekend and you really nailed it!
Thank you!
Dude just totally vibes respect on the water. I am a rookie boater. People see I am working to improve my technique, boaters respect it. He would be the first boat lend a helping hand.
Great job setting expectations for the sandbar experience
Your editing/production is getting better and better. Literally a mini movie. Great job and congratulations on your subscription growth!!
The best thing about boating is the ability to get away from crowds and sandbars & other shallow waters are places to avoid.
Absolutely! Couldn't agree more!
WOW, just WOW. Stunning, beautiful footage. Sure looks fun there at the sand bar!
Your videos just keep getting better. We were there about three weeks ago and rented a boat and tried to anchor down at the sandbar but it was a bit too windy. Beautiful spot. Love the keys!
Not trying to be a dick but memorial day is not about the ones who put their lives on the line. It about the ones who made the ultimate sacrifice for their brothers and their country
Yep. Veterans Day is for the living. 👍🏻
@@DocStanley there are so many vids on youtube of ppl making this mistake. i know theyre trying to be respectful but not knowing the true meaning of memorial day is disrespectful in itself
Great video. That Contender is a beast of a machine!!
Great proven boat company, made in the area too... well tested 😎
Thanks for showing that it's not always easy pizy handling a boat and fishing. Like you said and did, be ready for any hiccups and just keep moving Forward , just like in LIFE. 🤜🤛🚤🐟💯👨👩👦💯
great video, sand bars can be a blast and yes you are 100% correct about if you care for your boat then dont get up in the middle of it. Thanks again.
What a beautiful "Gas Gessler" Love it!
What a perfect closing statement! Thank you to all of those who have served our country!
Thank you Kevin.
Every Time you guys post a video, have to stop what i am doing, cause i know its going to be GOOD and I don't want to miss out. With that being said. Great video, Clay and Stephanie. Thanks for the shout out to our military that made this all possible. Great fishing and party mix. Now back to my 🍯 Do list.
Thank you my friend appreciate you!!
I love thisssss , more behind the scenes please 🙌🏼🙌🏼 ! This video was great 😂😂😂
Wow that sandbar really gets crazy! Great video!
Great video you Guys! Been watching y’all for a while now and I love everything about your videos!! Hope to see you one day! And keep coming out with these bangers!!!
Good call about being understanding and helping someone having a hard time. I remember when I started boating and some people were rude jerks and others were super helpful. I prefer the helpful attitude.
Great comments Clay..not everyone is on the same level with handling their boat..a little patience goes a long way!
Wow! Another great video! The old Green Turtle 🐢 on Islamorada was my favorite.
Awesome content! You guys are killin it!
Another great video. You are amazing Capt Clay. You are a gift from God. God bless you always
Such a well put statement at the end. Much respect ✊🏻
Thanks so much!
Blessed for sure. What a great blessing! Enjoy gents. Loving this new found channel.
Thanks so much Paul welcome to the family!
Hey man, this is the first time coming across your channel but I love your outlook. Glad to subscribe!
Clay I Love your attitude in life. May God continue to Bless you, Stephanie and baby. ❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic, glad to see you guys had a great time, and also I am glad that you guys are still my favorite channel, I love when you do videos like this one, wish these ones could be a Lil bit longer, I love them all really, I miss having the water right out my front door, well til next time 👍🙏❤️😎as always, with love from Upland Pennsylvania, bye
Y’all’s video quality is amazing it’s like a tv show
Making the “B” reel cool again ! Awesome stuff !
last few lines were spot on. you got a great attitude
Appreciate that. Thank you!
Awesome video dude!! first time watching your stuff, love your editing!
Thanks so much welcome!
Great video! Thumbs up for the Ridge wallet - I’ve been using mine for a year (safe too - blocks RFID scans)
This channel looks awesome! You got our sub!
Thank you so much!
Clay, great footage!! Your videographer skills have been steadily improving this past year and the footage you post in these episodes looks Amazing!!! Here's to the Heroic Men & Women who keep our values safe and defend America!! I may be a Canadian, but as far as I'm concerned we're all on the same page and neighbors always help neighbors!! I hope You & Stephanie and your Friends all had a Magnificent time!!
I like your carefree forgiving attitude. That is what my home state is all about.
Thanks got to keep it cool or you’ll never have a good time 😎
One of my favorite videos here besides the Bahamas and Dry Tortugas trips, Also thanks for letting everyone know that no matter how good you are at anchoring in current and wind you aren’t always safe because the guy next to you could be out on his boat for the first time. Also you shouldn’t get all bent out of shape if something minor happens and help rather than yell at the people who are having trouble like you said. I personally haven’t been to Islamorada sandbar although i have been offshore there, but most of the east coast FL sandbars I’ve been to seem to be the same way. Great video anyways
Awesome video like always!
Buddy falls into shark infested waters. "oops there goes the mic" lol most classic guy thing ever🙂
love it clay, and We as Veteran's appreciate you and your family. Hope to come down and meet you and Stephanie. Ranger Griff (Ret)
Thank you so much for your service. Appreciate you watching and supporting us.
I love your channel!
Hey, I’ve watched a bunch of channels along with yours and I’ve seen lower units pulled, filters changed, batteries changed, bilge pumps replaced…. I can’t remember ever seeing a video from anyone regarding fuel, additives, ethanol….?
I go to Haulover Sandbar in North Miami Beach. It’s big and the sand is amazingly great throughout. This is something you just can’t replicate at other sandbars in South FL or the keys as the bottom can be full of muck!
Another Banger as always!
Thank you!
This content deserves more views
Love the videos! Can you do an ASMR style video? Loading, starting and running the boat! Engine noises, dropping anchor, dropping the motors etc. Am I the only geek that would enjoy this? 😅
Great quality filming🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
love the sand bar. I lived in marathon from 70 to 90 when the tiki bar was king. many great memories hanging on the sand bar.
@Deborah Smith I'm great how are you? Life rocks with great friends and good times
You Rock!
Thank you so much, glad to know that you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
One of your best videos! 👌
Love your adventures!
You sometimes ask about content suggestions. Something I would like to see as someone who vacations to the Keys would be insights into how we can duplicate your lifestyle for ourselves on a 5-9 day vacation for a reasonable price. Not looking for Priceline or Orbitz or anything like that but with a decent / not excessive budget.
The bar’ is sort of the Keys’ answer to Coney Island on holidays but with clear warm water and a setting for parties into the sunset that are hard to beat.
Best fishing channel and best people ever 👌
Great video Clay.. great footage captured.
My brother Gus, always a pleasure seeing you here. God bless
Thank you my friend!
@@LifeByTheBow 👍
Awesome video!
We lived in Key Largo for 18 years. Loved it! We upgraded to a red anchor line to stop other boaters from running it over.
Great suggestion and good ide!
Great job setting expectations for the sandbar experience
Thanks tried our best!
I avoid that sandbar like the plaque on holiday weekends!!
Living the dream! Enjoy the hustle.
Thanks my friend!
You guys are the best, wish all boaters had your thought process, back to your fishing trip, can’t agree more, out few months ago with my son fishing 6 mile reef in Stuart , killin’ it, cobra, dolphin and snappers, had a great day until we were trying to leave, anchor stuck, ball couldn’t get it up, 45min later I decided to cut the rope, lost fortress anchor, 6’ ss chain and 200’ of rope, oh well was a great day with my son and filled the cooler with fish 😎
We all have those days. Just have to think about the memories at the end of the day. Thanks for watching along.
You are helping me set my dreams and retirement up. Your vids are making my goal a reality. I hope one day to pull up and just say Thanks!!!!!!!!
Top notch vlog as usual. Thank you.
Great video
Great attitude about the sandbar! Well said.
Thanks so much Russ!
I been down here in islamorada for the last few months. I just passed the weekend after memorial day weekend. It was packed out there. Then the weekend after we had our first tropical storm of the year rip through us for 2 days. 2022.
Lol im the guy throwing the anchor on the century. Great video!
Now this is the life! Love it.
We love it down here Shawn really appreciate you watching us. Love to see you subscribe and join every journey with us!
Living the life, I Envy you. Absolutely beautiful in the keys. Thanks for the awesome video
Thanks Donnie! Thanks for living it with us 🏝
Great video. What camera mount are you using to attach that camera to the helm?
Had the chance to meet you that day I was the one in the colorful stripes boat you ended up floating against when they pulled your anchor awesome video’s man 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Thanks my friend appreciate the help that day!
I am leaving today to come to Islamorada!!!! And fire video 🔥🔥🔥
This is great!
Thanks for watching!
That was awesome!
Thanks James Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey guys, I enjoy your channel a lot, keep up the good work! Our first time to the keys with our boat is coming up for the 4th of July week. What's your recommendation for visiting the sandbar, where to anchor that allows us to participate but not end up in a mess? I'm thinking north east end maybe. We are in a 24' cabin cruiser, so need at least 2' to stay afloat. I'd love to see a video geared towards a first time visitor's bucket list.
You're going to be swimming in urine with that many people so close together.
So I am new to your channel. I’ve been binging for a week now. As I started to watch this video, I had to double check and make sure it wasn’t a spear it animal video. They use that music you’re using as their theme song. It’s a great sailing channel by the way.
Welcome to the channel! I hope you’re enjoying the channel. I appreciate all the support.
Freaking love your channel. You two are awesome to watch. I had a couple of quick questions...What kind of knot did you use for that Leader to Snap Swivel connection? and what type of Snap Swivel is that? Kinda new at this. Thanks for what you guys do.
Thanks for shouting out our troops at the end
Of course!
That seemed like a really nice time...I notice that you have radar on your boat..do you use it often?? and why?? I am debating adding it to my boat
Good video, thanks,
Thanks for watching!
Clay, are you guys planning to release avail performance shorts you are wearing? If so when are you estimating that they will be available?
I really love your videos and I hate to give you a hard time but as a veteran I should NEVER be thanked on Memorial Day. Memorial Day is a day to remember my brothers and sisters that gave their all to the call of duty and will never come back home. If you want to thank a vet on Veterans Day do it but not on Memorial Day.
Keep up the great videos guys. And be thankful that the difference in those days isn’t overwhelmingly obvious to you.
Thanks so much for the support. We couldn’t agree more, thanks!
My favorite place to hang out when I'm down in the keys.
Agreed! Such a cool with a great atmosphere
love them gear and logo cool
We love to hear that. Thanks for the awesome feedback. Appreciate you watching the video.
50 Wides is a bit much targeting dolphin! I think it would have been more fun fighting with a nice spinning reel or even like a small Avet conventional reel. Maybe it's just me I like to use the smaller setups to fight is a hell of a lot more fun. And I'm glad you had a good time you videos are great!
Hey Clay, do you guys offer Mens shorts?
been twice and was a challenge getting anchored up, cant imagine when that busy.
Ever been to Crab Island in Destin, FL… makes this sandbar look small. 🤙
My husband and I are new to your channel. Excellent job! A network should pick y’all up. You’re that good! I love Stephanie’s hat she wears. Where did you purchase it?
Thanks so much! Welcome aboard. She gets all of her hats at TJ Maxx
@@LifeByTheBow, Thank you!
Memorial day is not about the ones that serve, it is about the ones that never make it back and have it their all.
Agreed but I like to recognize those that serve past and present.
@@LifeByTheBow that is what veterans day is about.
Exactly.
@@LifeByTheBow Understood, however it means such much more when you care enough to get it right rather than just a blanket thanks for each of the holidays. This is America and you can celebrate how ever you like, I am not saying anyone must do it one way or another. I am just saying it is noticed and appreciated when you show that you know the difference. Past is Veteran's Day and Present is Armed Forces Day. Memorial Day is for those who made the ultimate sacrifice and never came home.
@@muddpuppy07 if you want to get it EXACTLY right, you gotta mention the fact that most of those that gave all were America's best and brightest young men in their prime. What a different country we could be if these young men were allowed to mature and achieve their dreams!
Nice wallet 🔥
Capt run a 12V Aerator to one of those live wells. If the pump ever goes out again at least you will have it as insurance. I have mine permanently installed in our main LW.
It was actually the fact that we park on top of the aerators at the bait shop 🤦🏻♂️
Great tip though, thanks!
Just found you two on you tube pardoned the pun’s but I’m hooked
@Deborah Smith are you part of life on the bow?
Hey man my birthday today 65 years old Ocala Florida do a shout-out next video the old man Nelson thank you God bless you you got a beautiful wife I love her attitude I love it is very fun
cool vid man..subscribed... Just left there and my New Orleans fiancé has never been to KW..next trip we make out there I will rent a boat
Thank you!
Awesome !
But next time don't let Dom fall, mind you ! Please ! 😁😍
🤣😂😅
That many people in one place would make my head spin! Are there any sandbars you can go that are much more secluded even on a holiday weekend? Maybe something further out in the Ocean? Just curious.
There are other sandbars in the Keys that aren’t as crowded. It all depends on which Key you go too. Thanks for watching!
@@LifeByTheBow I am taking the family to Islamorada in early May for a week, bringing our 32 ft whaler to keep at the house. Any suggestions of things to do, none fishing related? Alligator Lighthouse, this sandbar, what else do you love doing in this area when not fishing per se? Love your videos, huge fan!
Looks like paradise to me 😍 Do you “brain & bleed” the fish prior to their ice nap? I’ve watched others do that and the bloodline seems to be less or, perhaps I’m mistaken. 🤷♀️ Love the content; keep ‘em coming!
Hey Clay, who did your custom cutting board? Want one & some of your knives for Father’s Day.
Love the American flag wave on the dock!
Thanks! We do too
Oh good lord lol. We used to tie our boats up together when we did the 4th on lk Monroe Sanfod fl.
Thanks for watching Lisa!
