- Took out Butter Boat 2.0 for one of the first times of the season. Had four crab pots to drop and let them soak for about three hours at a time. Ended up catching this the first time.... Dropped them again and went fishing, then ended up with this catch.... What do you think happened?

@@memehunter2943 Cool, I'll check him out.
I dont think I've ever seen a fishing channel that has politics in it
@@majikss good point
@@vision-gc4hyhes the only one ive followed.. got me back into fishing!

*Get's Tangled*
Hey, he's keeping it real tho
haha too funny! thats what I liked though, he didn't feel the need to edit out and try again to make himself look better
I'm addicted to your channel; lost hours of sleep every vid makes my mouth waters
"What a job this is" same here.
Gets my dick hard too
I farted in my pillow
Me too!
Look how far matts has gone! This guy started as a rock fishing dude. Now he's out in the ocean on his 2nd boat.
Named Butter 2.0
He's a beast
dude used to get so excited to catch a lincod but now it's, "thats a good size, see ya later". still has respect for the fish tho which is really awesome to see.
I'll never forget the first video I saw of you when you camped in the woods for 2 nights and 3 days best quality fisherman videos I've seen😎🔥
Here in the Virgin Islands 🇻🇮 some folks secure fishhooks on the ropes about 4 feet from the crab pots. The hooks are secured with the points facing downwards. A would be poacher would begin to pull up the pot to only be surprised at the last four feet of the rope. If they are lucky enough,they would escape with minor injuries. If YOU are lucky enough, you may not find any crabs in your pot, but the poacher will still attached to your line when you come to check out your catch. It’s cruel but so is stealing and for that,we don’t really have a poaching problem anymore .
Useful info thanks
Useful info thanks
@@lulu5827 Your welcome
@Usapang Pepe TV We been doing that to poachers for decades here to prevent them from poaching fish and lobster pots.
Cruel? Nah, thieves deserve this kind of punishment.
Absolutely addicted to your channel! From a fellow video creators perspective, I really appreciate the dedication to the production quality of your videos. Definitely going to try ocean fishing for the first time! Always been a river/lake fisherman, but now I moved to California. Seriously can't wait.
laowhy86 ADV crossover episode!
Am i mistaken but i thought u were in China/asia?
Love your videos too man keep up the good work on your side as well you have such an interesting view and outlook of China
Wow, we all thought your still in China? Well do I see fishing video in your future? I hope so
huge fan of both these channels!
I recommend zip-tying the doors of the crab cages with colored zip-ties to see if a poacher are hitting your pots. I know you can't do much about the nets, but at least the cages are secured. Love the vids! The new Boat looks SICK!! Look forward to more vids on it! Thanks for all your efforts!
Love your channel Fisherman Life Ima paraplegic suffered a horrible accident,n enjoy your videos helps me with my depression and forget about my life for a little!
Keep your head up high buddy
Damn colonia boy right here ha
Loonie Hahah that’s Right how you know that!! You from Oxnard? Well not active no more I’m paralyzed from my chest down..
This guy is just one of those things where you just have to know what happens next. I'm super inspired to get back to fishing, and camping thanks to this knowledgeable guy. I can see why people want to reach out to fish with him. I think I'm going to do more bay area fishing now thanks to him. Ocean beach is just 10 minutes from me. Peace to you Fisherman's life. If I ever see you I'm saying hello.
I'm also getting into fishing around the bay area. shoot me an email up if you want a fishin' buddy! craned70@gmail.com
When the line got tangled, I was cracking up.
10:27 you where so close to getting away but now you're gonna feed me B O N K
Happens here on blue crabs, people check your pots, I zip tie the dump doors closed at least make them work to get them out. Most time they don't bother to cut the zip ties.if that door was open when you know you left it shut? Someone is checking them.
I think this is a much better idea than putting a dead camera in. You know 100% for sure if someone checked them and it's a cheap tactic too.
It can make a pain for you to come back and check them too but it works. I had one time where he poacher didnt bother to take the crabs out but through my 5 pots into the marsh! Killed crabs and all. 5 is all we can set per recreational regs here in NC.
Threw not through?? Dang
Put a fake/broken GoPro in one of the crab cages and if the camera disappears you know you have a thief.
good idea
Why not realize that go pro is off and put it back in and take the crabs?
@@AA-bn3pm My thought was:
1.) Thief would not want to risk the possibility his face was recorded on the camera, so takes the camera.
2.) Thief cant resist taking a free camera, so takes the camera.
@@VadoseFish radio signals don't travel far through water; this is why submarines have to surface to communicate. If a military sub can't broadcast a powerful enough signal underwater, I highly doubt a consumer unit could.
@@ctsd623 The scenario that op suggested doesn't require radio waves travelling through water, I don't know where you got that. It's not like they're trying to get a livestream from the gopro at the bottom of the ocean.

“If you’re short on cash just save cash “ 😂😂
I don't like watching animals get hurt but when I watch you it just makes me hungry
Ive never ever fished but i keep watchin this guys channel. Idunno why but It just feels so satisfying and relaxing
Matt's, your a victim of pot pirates. Same thing happened to me when I left my pots over the weekend. Nice boat btw, lmk if you don't get your railing, I could possibly make you one.
Got a railing being made right now. thank yu for the offer Jose!
NIce, man! What you made there is referred to as inarizushi. And it's actually a type of sushi! You just made a 'catch and sushi' epsiode!!
The boat looks solid too man!
The famous cooked suchis.
LEL
@@zebilaweed crab sushi is always cooked.
I’ve been watching your videos since I was 11,( I’m 15 now), but seeing you get a sponsor is amazing! You’ve tough me so much about both the fish you catch and your tools. But all I really want to say is thanks and congrats on the sponsorship!
thanks man. that's crazy the amount of time that has passed. wishing you the best of luck wherever life leads!
You're killing it man.. Quality videos with nice editing.
Two videos from Fisherman’s Life in the same week? Hell YEAH! Love your content, Matt. Definitely looks like there’s some poachers in that bay though. Also, it’s awesome to see you got your first big sponsor for your channel, you definitely deserve it!
That,s what you get at halfmoon bay. crab poachers.. I drop a string of 10 pot & by the time i dropped # 7 or 8 poachers would be pulling
my first ones down. Sad that you have to sit out there with a gun to protect your property. If you watch people departing the boat ramp
only about 60 to 70 % even have crab pots with them, the rest are going poaching!!!!! 3 times i ,v come had to jump in the back of
another boat to take back my pots & crabs!!!! they always say they dont understand english LOL. Keep up the good work Matt.
Damn, that's sad. Next time I'll stay close to the pots and throw the drone up if I see anything suspicious
I was thinking maybe using the detergent jugs is what makes your pots more poach prone. Greg Wolfe, do you use detergent jugs too?
@@FishermansLife Yeah I was gonna say just stick around and fish within sight, even just catch-n-release. Then zip up on'em with the camera rolling for evidence for Fish&Game or police. The drone is a good idea because they won't see it coming until it's too late and the camera can get enough identity. Then go back and wait at the harbor... That shit really frosts me. People don't have any damn manners anymore.
Or just get small cheap padlocks because they won't have anything onboard to cut them off. But I would rather wait for them in the harbor and deal with them myself...
@@khalil8558 No i use boat bumpers white & orange with my name & boat numbers printed on them. no way people can mistake them for there own pots. poachers just pull every float they come across.
It wont matter if you catch illegal immigrats poaching. You live in a sanctuary state. Illegals can have a field day. The legals and locals are the ones who will face justice.
Pelican is a great quality company, my dad used to work for them 15+ years ago making their solid seal boxes and flashlights...awesome!!!
I love watching your catch and cooks. Your videos are very well-made and the food always looks amazing. I've only been subscribed for about a week but I've really been enjoying your channel. Thanks for the great content!
Like I told diehard fishing we use colored zip ties to close our crab pots so that if somebody poach from us at least we know that area is productive. It is better than second guessing or moving the pot from a potentially productive area.
Try flying your drone up high, while cooking, and see if people are messing with them crab pots.
This is a great idea
You guys are forgetting that drones are loud as fuck.
That’s smart actually. Especially if you have the ones that connect to your phone, you can literally watch those asshats pull out the crab traps.
Omg looks so amazing and I got my popcorn 🍿 I seriously thank you for creating videos also your boat is way awesome
often found myself returning back to this video when the weather is non forgiving for me to fish. It makes me longing to be out on the water even more. Kudos man
Checking pots with a drone is a great idea, or leave a crab with a mark on it in your pot and if it disappears you know someone is taking them out?
Ben Lastname,what a good idea! Thanx for sharing that.
But the mark, must not be recognisable by the others
Or put a go pro in the cages
@@jeeperscreepers3074 and the gopro will also missing 😂
Smart idea about leaving the crab in
**casually tosses fish off boat**
What a legend.
Have you ever fished from a boat? Don't get me wrong, I like the dude.
Usually, your videos aren't quite as long as this one...I wasn't sure I was going to watch this one all the way through...but you're full of surprises and it was more than interesting...Nice new boat...!!!
100% agree w/ you about dominant hand and reeling technique. Right hand dominant, left hand reel, all the way! Keep making the videos man. You are one of my favorites. BAY AREA Pride!
And I am totally going to look into these boats - i NEED ONE! Cheers
Man shoutout for the Devin The Dude track at the beginning!
Moe Bursey man you are right I heard it and didn’t even think of it. Cuddy really from the city tho
The way I cook my rice is:
1 cup rice to 1 cup water
Put both in a pot over high flame and let the water boil out. Once the water boiled out cover tightly and lower the flame to simmer and let cook for 10-12 minutes and it’s done!
Butter boat!!!! And catch and cook, you've made my day! That's an awesome boat, always cool to have something unique in your area, and even cooler that you're willing to share it with us.
I really enjoyed your videos! They are absolutely entertaining, educational and addictive. Keep up the great work!
Man you inspire me to go fishing and crabbing again thanks 🙏
That shot at 7:32 is gold 😂
For Whom The Bell Toll's :)
Thanks for tip on wrapping crab line. I've always just lived with it. I can tell you will have fun with your boat!!!
Enjoy😁
Best fishing channel on CZcams. Props to you my brother, your doing exactly what me and my cousin talk about and plan on doing. Keep enjoying life. One luv.
New fav CZcamsr, listening to Devin the Dude stay high friends ✌🏽
Great catches haha. You are such a great role model for many fishing youtubers like ME :)
Thank you for your video!
I am addicted to your channel .
Thank you for the great content.
Is there a rehabilitation place for ppl like me who just cant get enough of your videos?
Love this channel. Starting with Devin the Dude was a nice touch 😅 loving the zodiac btw 🚤
Dude I think your traps are being messed with by poachers for sure. I grew up in that area and I know for a fact that poaching is rampant I The Bay Area and especially Bodega Bay Area. My suggestion to you would be to either put locks on your traps or just stay there and guard them and see who comes around. Just be careful dude.
I've wanted to do this too! But isn't there a fine for locking your traps? I don't think they would be able to check but still if the fine is scary enough I might just risk the poachers some more. 2 out of our 4 traps were poached recently too! The other 2 a mile south got 10 keepers each though so not too mad
buy a gun bro
Read my post as to what we do here to reduce poaching our pots.
@@cfhstyo gl Its California
Locks are not advisable as they rust pretty quickly, to the point where you won't be able to open your own trap.
I love your videos bud,Nice boat! I do most of my fishing alone and i got an old
Lund that is on its last leg, just had to put seal coat on to get by this last season.Looking forward to Butter Boat 2.0 vid! Thanks Man!
Had my wife pick up a couple avocados the other week and sautéed up a grouper fillet. Topped it off with a fresh avocado, and all I have to say is I am sold!!!! Damn that goes together well.
Cool black Friday shopping at home, now this video..
I know... isn't that the best
Go to a Walmart Home Depot Lowe's look for a round clear plastic container that has colored zip ties use the zip ties on your doors pick one color that way if someone is rubbing your traps they will have to cut that zip tie and will not have something to replace it with
How are you supposed to get crab if u ziptie the doors
So waist a new zip tie every time you want open 🙄 NEXT
@@1jdm408 You can buy a pack of 50 zip ties for like $5 lmao.
@@sometallguy5905 so because some idiot is stealing you have to pay to 5 dollars now

I love the way you chuck the fish away it’s funny every time
great video as always and congrats on the new boat! looking forward to the new videos...
Dude I love that you are more active now! I'm a fisherman from Tennessee, but I still love your videos. could you do more freshwater trout fishing? I especially liked the fly fishing ones!
Since your from Tennessee... I was wondering do they have walleye's there...just curious... thanks
At least where I am, they don't. They do stock trout. Plus there is always bass fishing. @@jeffreyhebert5604
+The Doctor for me I just love being outdoors and catching fish is just a blessing. ..cheeers
I use detergent cans sometimes. They work fine but best not to use them in strong tides in large tidal range areas as if they get pulled under they can get crushed and split.
True. But one way to help is to fill the containers with spray foam insulation. Enough so that when it all fins up, it fills the entire container. That way, if it does end up with a crack in it, you don’t risk it filling with water and you loosing your gear.
I can't get enough of your videos.......thank you!
Think this is my fav vid he has ever made. So much variety
Keep up the good work!!!!
You should do a Q&A for the fans Matts!!
A reel is basically a winch. You use your dominant hand to wind. If you’re right handed you use your right hand to hammer, turn a winch, sharpen a pencil with a manual sharpener, use a screwdriver, write, etc. that’s why you’ll see commercial and professional fisherman use right sided conventional reels. Newer fisherman learn to use a spinning reel that is left sided because of the how it is set up and when they transition think the conventional reels are suppose to be on that side as well. Spinning reels are faced downward and spin horizontally. I guess it’s how you’re taught or how you learn. If you’re right handed and want to use your left hand for reeling more power to you. It’s pretty much your preference. You can also throw a ball with your left hand if you want.
fantastic video and production! Loving it.
Amazing production quality, you have some great shots! Love the vids man
Pay for what you get. That cooler is bad ass. I own one and I'm in Deep South Texas its in my car for three days and still my beer is cold.
Now you can drink a cold beer and drive at the same time nice!! Lol
@@alexramos9263 Why drive and drink? You could spill your beer. South Padre Island is just 30 minute drive away. Nothing like a long day at work and going to fish after with ice cold beer. Its nice having a cooler that can withstand 100+ degree days in your truck for a few days without stopping for cold beer and/or ice everyday.
Man I remembered I clicked that subscribe when you were at 23k subs congrats

Hi. I am an experienced fresh water and gulf coast fisherman but moved out to the bay area a several years ago. I am going to start teaching my 3 year old about fishing and we have been watching your videos since fishing in the Ocean is a bit different than what I have experienced. I think your channel is great. The only thing I can think of that would make it better is if you had a playlist where all of the videos were in chronological order so we can watch how you learned fishing in the bay area.
Great vid; man, I felt like I was out there with ya! The food you put together, wow!
I really like your vids my man, keep up the good work.
Great video. You are very entertaining.
Oh man, nuttin like dungeness crab. The way you keep it real it refreshing. Thanks!
Man , I learn so much watching you videos! I'm going the same route of a small boat , fishing by myself or with a buddy and just fishing and crabbing!! Never seen or even heard about these little pockets to stuff meat and rice in there....gawd dang , my mouth is watering!! Hitting the coast in 3 days!!
We have a crab theft epidemic in the Bay Area. They need to be identified and the tires of their rigs and trailers slashed.
Here in the Midwest DNR officers seize poacher's weapons , trucks, boats, etc and auction at seasons end. Karma is instant, provided they're caught.
Think public whipping would be good, nice good deep bloody scar gashes, 15 of them should do. Or just brand their face so everyone in their life knows they are sub-human trash.

You know, im not the least bit interested in fishing bc I don't liek water but DAMN i sure do love watching you do it. It nice n relaxing. Also, sorry about the poachers man! Hopefully you can get some more crab next time.
Ohhhh Devin the dude!!! My man!!
Love you have Devin The Dude as your score... I am from Houston and an avid fisher. Love your wildlife.
There is not nearly enough appreciation for legit whipping out inarizushi no moto
Love that you share your recipes. My family makes those for new years!
Cool channel. You're like the Bob Ross of fishing.
16:13 that rock crab be like "mother fblurp blurp blurp"
I love that you played Devin my bro keep up the good fishing
Yes I'm so glad you got a new boat i love a good boat video
I never knew you could get inari like that, that’s basically like cone sushi type deal. You said it correct aswell with the “r” technically its all the same the whole tomato, tomato or potato, potato you catch my drift
I always use pelican..pretty awesome sponsor.
I admire the way you fish, I wish more people slowed down and gave it the time it really deserves.
Old video for sure but I keep rewatching these dungeness vids because someday I want to go fishing regularly.
niceee finally the butter boat is revealed! crabbing has been generally slow, i have been to the jetties at least 5 times now so far i have only got three total lol
BECASE YOU GUYS ARE AMATEURS, PARTY BOAT CUSTOMERS BEEN TAKING 10 HOME EACH TRIP OUT & THEY JUST STAND AROUND & WATCH!
i think you got poached
“Sorry man you were so close to leaving but now you gonna feed me” 😂💀
That looks soooo good and I love your channel
When we used to crab up in Canada & Alaska, we used frozen chicken drumsticks, canned cat food, and leftover fish heads/carcasses. They'll eat just about anything. They also have crab jelly that is super smelly that attracts crab like crazy.

Well you ate having a great time fishing brother. Nice fish after nice fish... what can you ask for... and amazing boat. Really nice one
My grandma used to make inari sushi when I was young. They were my favorites. We used to call them football sushi. Vinegar rice and a few sliced carrots and I would eat them all.
