    Congratulations guys. My husband and I were together 7 years before we got married and fished the whole time. 35 years later we are still fishing and you guys have inspired us to check out fishing in Florida. We are so excited.

    Late to the party (story of my life), but wanted to tell you both how much this old land locked Texan who fishes the Keys every chance I get enjoys your fishing videos as well as the way you two have so much fun together. I started watching your content a couple of weeks ago beginning with your most recent to your oldest and have loved all of it. Keep up the good work and enjoying quality time with each other. Tight lines!!!

    Anytime you two are up north in Michigan I would be glad to take you out for a salmon or musky trip. Not sure it could match the outstanding fishing and warm weather you have but it would be a change of pace if you ever need it!! Right now the water is still frozen, Watching you guys enjoy the water year round makes me soo jealous but keeps me going till it finally warms here. Thank you for all your videos of different species and how to cook them! I look forward to everyone of them!!! Congrats again on your wedding. If there is ever a picture of happiness it is the smiles of you and Stephanie when you are together.

    Great video!
    My wife and I spent part of our honeymoon in Key West in 1994, the first three nights we stayed in a motel in Marathon . We had to move to another motel after my wife saw a few bugs in the room in marathon (guess I had a lot to learn about being married)! So we got a room at the Key Wester motel . We had a great time in Key West and even caught some fish on a night trip on a head boat.
    We plan on coming down for a vacation later this year.

    • @LifeByTheBow
      @LifeByTheBow  Před 3 lety
