  • Being in the middle of nowhere is my reset button. You get away from everyone and everything, get your head right. I walk away happier, more focused, and in this case with a fine meal. Flatheads are a healthy fish to eat, I just happened to be given a recipe that makes that very unhealthy. It tasted too good for me to care!

    This is why I love this channel it shows the real struggles and the ups and downs of chasing flatheads it is one hell of a grind.. I have caught them on bank lines and hogged many of them but until I started chasing them on rod reel i have a whole new look on them its definitely not for everyone and anyone who chases them knows it takes hella dedication. Keep up the good work man I've learned alot from you and appreciate your dedication I share the same amped up excitement when i finally land a giant! Tight lines brotha stay safe out there

    I love watching your older videos. You and John, Creek adventure, are my two favorites. It's because you actually show us great stuff, plus you love what you're doing. I grew up in a fishing family. Mostly fishing at Wheeler dam with my grandfather Hill. Or fishing at Mallard Creek. Of course we didn't fish for giants. Papa never keep over a 3 lb fish for eating. The last all day trip we went I caught 22 cat, and he caught 21 cat. Of course they were what you would call babies😂😂❤. I sure miss my Papa ❤. I taught my two oldest grandsons how to fish and clean fish. Paxton is the one I want to set up with you. Hopefully I'll get the money soon to book a trip ❤ . And don't worry about the talking, you make it really. I love watching your wife fish ❤.

    Great Video. Soak the fish nuggets in franks redhot for 20 min prior to dreading it. Skip the egg wash and go directly to a dredge of 1 part corn meal 2 parts flour (add some salt and pepper). It gives is a slight vinegar hot-wing taste. I then use Sriracha ;) Simple and solid way to go. Happy Fishing!

    If i remember correctly last time i did flathead i used my gas grill. I soaked the fillets in milk for couple hours, dried em off and used a brown sugar rub with some spices for a little heat, sprayed with olive oil spray to keep the seasoning on and makes it stick less on the grill. Ive done chicken in the past and had good results, and doing the same to flathead left me remembering happy thoughts as i had purchased the fish at a fish market after a day of fishing cuz i suuuck at catching flatheads :-(

Bro it's amazing and try it with chicken breast too. Anyway I like it so I thought I'd share it with ya.

    My personal catfish recipe:
    Start a fire to get good coals burning.
    Items needed - Aluminum foil, cooking twine and long tongs for turning the fish.
    Ingredients- Seasoning, butter, 2 pounds of bacon, 1-2 large potatoes (cut into small chunks) and an optional bass or panfish, also cut into small chunks.
    Prepare the fish by removing the head, guts, fins and skin. Leave the rest intact. (Fillet, skin and chunk bass or panfish if using.)
    Cut desired amount of bacon into small chunks. Save the rest as strips.
    Stuff catfish with bacon, potatoes, and optional bass or panfish. Top with chunks of butter, seasoning and wrap tight with twine. Then wrap the catfish with remaining strips of bacon , then wrap again with twine.
    Season again, then wrap in foil with several cubes of butter to keep from sticking. Use at least two layers of foil.
    Place in prepared coals, turning 1/4 turn every 15 minutes.
    Cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes for 5 pounds of fish. Add 30 minutes for every 5 pounds.
    When done, slice the TOP of the fish open, remove all bones and ribs with a fork.

    Another good way to do that is using Rits crackers. Put them in a large zip loc. remove all the air and lay flat on a counter. Use a round glass and roll it across a few times. It will break them up into a fine dust. Similar to cornmeal. Then just fry and eat !! Taste amazing on chicken tenders as well.

    Peanut Oil.
    Long time ago my GrandDad told me peanut oil has a higher burn point temperature - once you burn the oil it's game over, as you found out.
    My favorite is half Andy's Red/Cajun with a little flour to help coat (add crushed Cayenne to taste).
    The flour THEN dredge was interesting. Not hating, just that Mom and Grandmaw always dredged then coated, so of course, that's how I do it as well. Maybe it's a geographical thing? Enjoyed the vid👍

    I don't eat fish, I just catch and release, but I'd say when cooking breaded this way to deep fry them. You would have better control of the heat distribution on all sides and less risk of burning.

      @@RiverCertified you can use a medium to large saucepan. When the fish floats, it’s done. Put the cooked fish in a brown paper sack and gently turn it so the bag soaks up oil. Keep the top somewhat closed while you’re cooking more fish and it’ll stay warm. We cooked a big batch everyday.

      @RiverCertified  Před 4 lety +1

      I keep thinking about it, but don't want to get demonetized. The simplest way is to use some pliars and pull all the skin off. Then fillet the sides and cut the belly meat from the ribs. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching Erich!

    • @SnowRite32
      @SnowRite32 Před 4 lety

      Oh for sure, I can imagine people being like that. Yes, that does help because I wasn't sure if it was similar to how you fillet a channel or not. That sounds easier to fillet after the skinning it because you have a better visual of where to cut. Thank you Spencer, for you videos and your time.
