    I'm pretty sure I heard a banjo playing back by the boat graveyard...

    That green boat at 10:15 is the same one I found in the mangroves right after the refugees that came over on it abandoned it. I did a video showing it back in April. Guess I know where it ended up.

      that's awesome, I just checked out your video and that's so cool, it's amazing that that boat is still floating.

    I miss hearing your “it’s a beautiful day in the Florida keys”, felt like that was your catch phrase.

    Steve, that was such an awsome ride. That's why I love the keys. You'll always find a new spot created or undiscovered. I hate seeing boats, that were once beautiful, just sitting there destroyed. But I guess that's what makes those spots interesting.😎 🎣 🙏

    I visit Marathon 1-2 times a year and usually stay right next to Boot Key. I've always wanted to explore around there but it's too shallow for the rental boat. Glad to get a close up look. Thanks for the tour Steve!

    Good adventure. Reminded me of my flats days. The grave yard would be spooky at night.

    14:34 the boat being shown half sunk looks like the boat used to find the gold ship Atocia. that treasure is on display in Key West at a museum.

    Boot key looks cool as hell. I would love to get a bike on there and ride around.

    In Hawaii there are tons of urchins everywhere and it sucks when you get spinned they break off very easy. We also have bonefish no permit or tarpon though.

  • @agawied2910
    @agawied2910 Před 2 lety

    I saw a moray eel in those mangroves that you were fishing at the beginning. Super cool to watch it chase bait.

  • @hermw1541
    @hermw1541 Před 2 lety

    I think the guy in the boat said "all about the bait". Love the video. Awesome job.

    This was a very cool video. Love seeing the channels, like at Book Key, as well as the off shore areas. Have to wonder if nefarious things happen back there, lol.
    Interesting that someone would put a monument on a small lump of land like that. Probably the Boot Key Yacht Club. Any members here? If they had the forethought to bring the materials for the signage, it might be a regular party spot.
    Next time, leave a note!

    Great video Steve, we’ve been watching you for years. I was wondering if you’ve come across any crocodiles around the middle to lower keys, don’t believe I’ve seen you come across any? I’ve heard of sightings there around boot key.

    The tonal quality of your voice is very similar to that of Don Knotts. I bet that you could do a good Barney Fife impersonation if you tried.

  • @gotchewie420
    @gotchewie420 Před 2 lety

    Have you every considered getting a insta360 or dji's 360 degree camera? Would've been very cool if we could choose our own angle to look. Still a cool ride. Thanks

  • @gotchewie420
    @gotchewie420 Před 2 lety +1

    Also, have you considered using circular polarizer filters to help remove some of the reflections and stray light?

  • @randyruney5704
    @randyruney5704 Před 2 lety

    Such a cool video. If it weren’t for the bugs , I could get use to it. Cheaper than the rest of the Keys

    I'd love to watch more of this video, but I'm getting motion sickness from the rapid back and forth motion of your camera.

    Wonder why they closed the bridge going to Boot Key?

    Will a nurse shark actually get aggressive if there’s no food or bait that they’re going after?

    Steve, thanks for the video. Coming here tomorrow with my piranha and you have really sped up my learning curve. I’m aware of your on line services but what if I’m in Marathon? Are you set up for retail?

    do you think the realisticness of the Vudu shrimp helps when the water is real clear

    • @miamiwax5504
      @miamiwax5504 Před rokem

      U will never land a tarpon on vudu shrimp. The hooks are way too dull and a tarpons mouth is all bone. I have hooked many but the hook always comes out.

    I could swear I heard banjo music when you went up that channel... watch your booty Steve 😏 there's probably a reason why they call it pirate Island.
