We spent two days fishing out of hillsboro inlet, Florida and slow trolled speedos and goggle eyes. We caught a multitude of species including amberjack, sailfish, kingfish, mahi-mahi and barracuda. Barracuda are a fish often disregarded as a toxic trash fish. When you first catch a barracuda they a distinct foul smell which gives them a bad reputation. Once you fillet the barracuda the fillet itself is actually great table fare. People think all barracuda are thought to contain the toxin ciguatera, which is simply not true. Ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP), also known simply as ciguatera, is a foodborne illness caused by eating reef fish whose flesh is contaminated with certain toxins called ciguatoxins.
I show you how we catch, clean and cook a barracuda for dinner!

What's up my boys and girls
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.
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!
Yes, after-dinner brain. Fixed.
Thought that fish was just becoming a man.😂
@@jeredalmeida1880 it was a female.
My first sub was the USS Menhaden SS 377 good ol boat .Decommissioned in Aug, 1971.
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 👍
never seen ocean? get your head checked! Missing everything in life there is!
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.
@@FishermanKyleyep turned down nice jobs to stay near the ocean. 52 and never seen the ocean??? That's unimaginable.
3:00 I can just hear the bait, "Bro!, pull me uuuup! I'm so close I can count the teeth! Put that reel to wooork!"
The agility of sharks is due to them having cartilage and not bones. Absolutely one of the most amazing fish IMO!
Love the channel!

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.
That’s fucking NUTS!!! I’m with you on that. I’d rather swim with a shark lol
My Dive instructor feed one of those with a fish in his mouth, Don't think that's allowed anymore. Lol
It's even worst when u scare them coz they double back when u think they're gone
@@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.
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.
Prime example of an old wives tale.
Unfortunately there’s no evidence of that test actually working. I wish it did work because that’d be really convenient
You are right. At this point only an advanced lab can detect this kind of toxin.@@alexanderren1097
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.
Couldn’t agree more. I get some enhancement of colors but even that’s going too far lately. There’s just no need. The fish are enough.
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.
Here in the island of Palawan in the Philippines we eat Barracudas we even make Civeche from it and it tastes amazing!
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 CZcams imo. In my younger days we’d take an all night charter deep sea fishing trip once or twice a year in Panama City!
Loved the video. We caught 7 or so in a charter in Aruba 2 years ago. Did a CZcams 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.
I hate that the fake teeth thumbnails work😂 I’m like «Those teeth look fake» *click on the video to check*
Lmao same that’s basically the point but content is the key
@@Dyeheartxfire doesn’t feel like you got tricked into watching when the content is good.
Thank god I thought it was just me 😂😂😂
Man I just love Landshark his videos are just awesome
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. 😞
i love watching your videos man. the family time enjoying a tasty meal is the perfect cherry on top. thanks for sharing!
I love watching your videos! Im about to go on a tuna trip myself!
Another good one as usual! 🙌
We LOVE eating Barra in Jamaica!
Dude! I saw you heading out that morning I work as a lifeguard right by there
I love your videos man keep it up
I love the respect you show for any different fish man, It's a pleasure to watch you display your knowledge man.
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.
Idk how many years I've been watching but I love your videos. Best fishing channel on CZcams
Hmmm... No mention of the Mercury levels in Barracuda??
its not a big problem with those small baras
Hmmm…gotta love those guys that start a sentence with a Hmmm. Who does that?
@@parmesanbeagle9827 Hmmm... I ... Quite a few... Hmmmm
Hey Vic - just wanted to say thank you for sharing your life with us! It wouldn't be the same without you!
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.
You are so right just like the jacks having worms but I still eat them
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. 🤙
You are the best victor. ❤
I always enjoy your videos 👍
First time trying barracuda as a result of this video. Wow, just delish! Thanks, Vic!
Good video! 💪 Sailfish clips were awesome as always.
Great Chef as always !!!
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!
Nice to hear more comments from your camera man keep up the amazing content and please do another collaboration with Taku 👍
That hammerhead was so cool
Hello again from San Diego California luv the show
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 wanna see a catch clean and cook file 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.
I keep telling dexter to make them!
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.
Amen brother. We dont refuse that. I like it more than Snapper.
That's what I'm talking about
Another great one, thanks.
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)
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
Vic I love/hate your videos . I always love the beginning, then I hate the ending because my mouth is left watering and hungry !
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.
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
Hi Victor I love your show it is awesome this is Errol the Jamaican sensation
Great job guys cool release
I LOVE Trash Fish Videos as I too believe that there's a place at the table for most any fish if handled right ! Thanks for spreading the word !!!
Best fishing vids on the platform
Awesome footage of the Hammerhead guys! 😎👍
Great job ❤❤❤
Love barracuda and need to try this recipe!!!
Bro your channel is dope! Just came across you from a black tip vid. How do you not have more subs… well yo have one from me!! Keep slinging rods🤙🏾
Awesome video guys!!! The restaurants wish they had fish sandwiches that looked that good! See y'all next time.
Hahaha thank you
That hammerhead was insanely powerful. You don't realize how powerful they are until you see them move all that water chasing prey.
Wonderful food, beautiful family 🤍💙
Man, i love cudas.. we eat em a lot here in Malaysia.. love your videos man.. always makes me hungry for fish..
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
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.
Fun video. Your tartar sauce recipe is so good. I cheat and use dill or sweet relish already made.
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 😊
He had a lucky day. I personally enjoy conventional reels for this kind of fishing. I like the way the fight feels.
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
Very amazing big fish strike, I hope your day is always happy my friend, the big fish was immediately processed 👍👍
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.🍻🎣👍
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
I’m not as uptight I get the humor of the teeth I think it’s hilarious. It goes with the theme of villain of the Sea. lol
Vic, when you get the speedos close to the bait in the chum. Have you ever tried throwing a cast net on them? Just curious. Great video.
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
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
Those file fish are some kinda good eating.
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!
Wow..good😊😍
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.
hey., maybe something bit off bottom fin on the way up? looks like my aquarium fish after a battle.
yall need to come up to lake erie and go out fishing for some walleye with me
What I enjoy about your videos is that you always educate us on so many aspects of the sea and the fish. I appreciate that about you!
I like it Thank you
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
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.
this is a dolphin fish aka mahi mahi
Top notch food. Simple and delicious.
Glad I watched the TikTok live before this video came out😂
Yeah, u had me till u threw the roe away. I love that stuff!
I’ve seen that on Mahi, it’s a parasite. I’ve seen it on a few other Pelagic’s.
Her dad is such a nerd but i love it. What a sweet man.
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.
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…
WOOOW i tought hammerhead sharks were extinct im so happy to see this its always been my favorite shark.❤
Victor what is your size reel? That you're using for tuna. And what size test are you using
Good 👍
Vik. Where can I score one of those landshark white long sleeve shirts. I want one. Thx!
I need to go fishing so bad!
I just wanna hit some jetties for big sheepshead
love your family
the frignge on the mahi what is it. also let me know if you like chef troy crunchy garlic sauce.
I believe the cudas use you (us) as his bird dog, at least in water under ten feet deep... As we swim along they use us like we use flushing bird dogs. We spook something, it takes off after it , .....cuda snack. Cudas that know what fishermen are, are EXTREMELY hard to get them to bite.(at least in my experience with dock cudas) They KNOW what hooks are and what they look like. They will surgically snip a bait all around the hook, but never take the hook if they see it. I had to bury the hook in the bait before it would even THINK about hittin it. It KNEW I was there, it could see me and KNEW what I was up to. I think they are REALLY smart fish.
hook worms & anchor worm is a better describing scenario the portion of this pericyte worm is imbedded in the fish and looks like a grapnel anchor. The are common in schoolie dolphin when you look for them.
Funny it’s so cold for you I’m up in Michigan and it’s abnormally warm
Victor, you will literally eat anything. I almost dropped my phone when you said you was going to keep that dolphin with all those worms attached to it.😂🤢🤮
alright time for the ultimate vic cook off, MasterChef time lmao
