00:00Good morning from the beautiful Florida Keys. We are down here in Marathon. We
00:04trailered our boat all the way down here and we are here for 10 days to do some
00:08fishing, some diving, hanging out at this beautiful house on the water, hanging out
00:12in the pool with the family. And today we are heading out to try to get on some
00:16mutton and hopefully some grouper would be nice. Rookie is leaving baby Lily. Lily
00:21is in the best possible hands. Her grandma. Have fun with grandma. I will. Look at her. She's
00:28adorable in her little pink hat. This makes me a little sad to leave her back at home. Bye. I
00:34love you.
00:36So Brooke, when's the last time we fished together? I don't even know when the last time I
00:40caught a fish was. We fished New Year's Day. We didn't catch anything. So it has been a
00:46long time since I have caught a fish. So I'm very excited to go out there. The boys
00:51went out yesterday and me and my mom stayed home with Lily and we played in
00:55the pool all day and they got some nice mutton snappers. So hopefully today we
00:59have that same look. So we're going to head out there and wish us luck and
01:01hopefully we crush it.
01:17Alright, so we are anchored in a hundred feet of water and this is what we're
01:20using. Fresh, dead goggle eyes. The first night that we got here, Victor and Dennis
01:25went out at night and caught about 13 dozen goggle eyes. Oh, my dad's on. Oh boy. That's good fish,
01:33huh?
01:34Oh man, I haven't caught a fish in my ears.
01:40What is it? It's three o'clock. I think we've been fishing for almost five hours and we finally have
01:48a good
01:48fish on. And we've been fishing either live pin fish or dead gogs, whole dead gogs and we can just
01:57pull him down.
02:01There we go. Hey, you got a fish. Alright, well, I may not have caught it, but this is the
02:06first fish that I've seen in a long time be caught.
02:09But that's a greater amberjack. We're going to let this guy go and hopefully we get on a species that
02:15we
02:15want to bring home for dinner like a mutton or a grouper. So, see ya.
02:20It was a nice fight though. I enjoyed it.
02:22So the first night we were here, Victor and Dennis went out in the dark and caught about 13 dozen
02:29gogs.
02:29So these are fresh dead gogs we got in the boat and we got it butterflied just like that with
02:35the tail cut off.
02:36And we're using a 40 foot 50 pound leader and it's working for my dad.
02:41You got to let your dad step on it a little. I'm stepping on one right now.
02:44You want to step on it? Get it, bro. Get it. Like you're stepping on a Lego, not too hard.
02:50Uh oh. I think I did too much. Yeah, you're good. Let's see if it works.
02:56Oh, he's there. Get him, get him, get him.
03:00What's this one going to be? A mutton this time?
03:03I don't know.
03:05You think so?
03:07Alright, fish number two for my dad.
03:10It's coming up much easier, not fighting as hard.
03:13It's a mutton!
03:15Woo! Nice one.
03:17Nice one.
03:19We did it!
03:21Well, first mutton of the day in the boat.
03:2321 inches.
03:25Second fish of the day.
03:28And I stepped on another gog.
03:31Fish are not biting and I stepped on another gog.
03:34But we're going to keep an eye on Victor to make sure he's not back here stepping on gogs when
03:38nobody's looking.
03:38That's all I've got to say.
03:42All right, well, I got my first fish on of the day.
03:46Come on baby, be a mutton snapper.
03:49It's going to be a mutton. You can feel him.
03:51Feel it in your bones?
03:52I feel it in my bones.
03:54It's going to be my first fish in 11 months.
03:57It's going to be my first fish in 11 months.
04:10Yep.
04:11Yep, yep, yep.
04:13Yep, yep, yep.
04:14I have bad news.
04:15It's a shark.
04:16You're kidding.
04:17No.
04:18Man, my bones.
04:21He's in that line.
04:22He's off.
04:23He's off.
04:24Sorry bro.
04:25My bones must be a little rusty.
04:27I haven't caught a fish in 11 months.
04:30Thought it was a vine and it was a shark.
04:32All right, my dad's on again.
04:34The silent slayer.
04:35It's not just the third fish of the day.
04:37It's the third fish on a stepped on gob.
04:41Oh no, he's still there.
04:43Charge me a little bit.
04:45You're not going to let that one down, huh?
04:47You ready?
04:49Wait, you don't trust me no more?
04:53I am a little rusty, but...
04:59Oh yeah, it's a mutton.
05:05Nicer one.
05:06Woo!
05:06Baby!
05:08Look at that thing!
05:09Oh yeah.
05:11Oh yeah.
05:15Hey Victor, I'm going to give you permission to step on a cog now.
05:18I got three fish.
05:20Can you believe this guy?
05:22I'm telling you, it works.
05:25We haven't caught anything and now three fish in a row on stepped on gog.
05:30I'm going to show you how to do it.
05:32Well, that's button number two for the box.
05:35Let's send Mom and Lily a picture.
05:37We, Victor said we were going to fish only until we were going to be back at the dock at
05:41three o'clock today.
05:42And so we just called my mom and Lily and we said we haven't caught anything yet.
05:47So we got to send them a picture.
05:48Here's the trick that's been working.
05:50Watch this.
05:54You see the gush come out, you know you did it right.
05:58That's three fish in a row on a stepped on gog.
06:01The gush?
06:01Yep.
06:03Silent Slayer.
06:04You're on again?
06:06Oh yeah.
06:08You got to give the cameraman a heads up.
06:10I like to make sure I'm hooked up before I tell Dennis anything.
06:13But I got him on there again.
06:15Oh there's sharks under the boat now.
06:18Is there?
06:18Yeah.
06:19See that?
06:21Sharks.
06:22That is sharks.
06:26Yeah, it's another amber giant.
06:27Is it?
06:28You can tell?
06:28Yeah.
06:31Live together, huh?
06:39All right.
06:40AJ number two.
06:41Not the mutton you wanted.
06:43Not the mutton I wanted, but it fought good.
06:45Fought good.
06:45Screamed the reel.
06:46I'm happy.
06:48He's going back.
06:52So as we wait for our next bite, I'm going to tell you about today's video sponsor, which
06:55is Element.
06:57Element is an electrolyte drink mix with everything you need and nothing that you don't.
07:01Element can help prevent and eliminate headaches, muscle cramps, fatigue, and other
07:05common symptoms of electrolyte deficiency without all the added junk.
07:08That means no sugar, no coloring, no artificial ingredients, no glue-in, and no fillers like
07:14you might find in other sports drinks.
07:16On a trip like this, you already know that I brought a ton of Element with me.
07:20I got a bunch in my backpack for the boat, a bunch back at home, and there is a bunch
07:24of new flavors if you haven't tried them.
07:26There's pink lemonade, there's regular lemonade, and there is a lemonade iced tea flavor that
07:31is also brand new that is very good.
07:33It's got a little bit of caffeine in it, so it gives you the perfect pick-me-up.
07:36This is the perfect thing when you're on the boat, hot all day long, to enjoy.
07:40So I'm going to mix myself up one.
07:42Anybody else want one?
07:43I'll take one.
07:44Listen, you need these electrolytes.
07:46We are covered in sweat.
07:47It's hot out here in Florida, and this is a must.
07:50That's my favorite now, the new iced tea.
07:53They're great on the boat.
07:54So if you guys are interested in trying at Element, right now they're offering you a free
07:57sample pack with any purchase.
07:58All you have to do is go to drinkelement.com slash brookechrist, or I will have a link in the
08:04video description, and you can try some of their most popular flavors.
08:07Now let's get back to fishing.
08:09Hurry up!
08:10Daddy's getting a bite!
08:11Get it, bro.
08:11Get it, bro.
08:13Oh, yeah.
08:13This is a good one.
08:14Good job, babe.
08:17Oh, I don't know.
08:20Yeah, that's a good one, bro.
08:22That's a mutton.
08:23Be a mutton, be a mutton, be a mutton.
08:25Not a shark.
08:26Not a shark.
08:30Come on, baby.
08:31Come on, baby.
08:32I think I have my mind now.
08:34Feel it in my rusty bones.
08:36Oh, no.
08:37I feel you.
08:38You feel me?
08:38Yeah.
08:39But it's okay.
08:40Just worry about your fish.
08:48Your rusty bones?
08:49Yeah.
08:50The rusty bones need to go back in the rod holder.
08:56Okay.
08:57Getting close, babe.
08:58Okay.
08:59Ryan, will you hold this?
09:00Yeah.
09:02Just hold this rod, because it's tangled in here.
09:05It's going to be a big mutton.
09:07Maybe it's because of you being tangled with me.
09:09No, it's off.
09:10Here, pull it.
09:17Is it my mutton, Mike?
09:19Oh, yeah, it is.
09:20It's a good mutton.
09:21It's even bigger than your dad's.
09:23Woo-hoo.
09:25Yeah, baby.
09:26Yeah, nice one.
09:28Get him, Mike.
09:29Get him.
09:29I'm done, Don.
09:30I'm going.
09:30Nice one.
09:33Yes.
09:33Good job, Ricky.
09:35Good job.
09:35Look at that thing.
09:36Now that is a comeback fish.
09:40Wow.
09:40She still got it after 11 months, huh?
09:42It's huge.
09:44Nice.
09:45That is a nice one.
09:46Oh, my gosh.
09:47Woo-hoo.
09:49Look at that thing.
09:52Did you guys get any big, this big yesterday?
09:54No, nobody gets them that big, Brooke.
09:57I've never seen one that big.
10:00Come on.
10:01Maybe you should mount it, Brooke.
10:03They're messing with me.
10:04No, that's about the size we caught yesterday.
10:06That's a great fish.
10:07That is a beautiful mutton snapper right there.
10:09I was basically pregnant all of last year.
10:12Well, for nine months of it.
10:13And at some point, I decided to stop going on the boat.
10:17So, I haven't been fishing in a long time.
10:20And that is my first fish back.
10:22And that is a very nice mutton snapper.
10:25And that's what we came out here for.
10:27Beautiful keys, mutton snappers.
10:29And we got it done, baby.
10:30Look at that thing.
10:32And Big Don in the back.
10:35Come on.
10:35You're not breaking me off this time.
10:41Get a double.
10:47Careful with my line.
10:48Yeah, there you go.
10:53That's a nice fish, right?
10:55Get him, Brian.
10:56Get him, Brian.
10:57Get him, Brian.
10:58It might be me.
10:59I'm not sure.
11:03All right.
11:05I'm playing with fire with the light set up.
11:07I wanted to get a rod in the water.
11:08No, this is two different fish.
11:09Yeah?
11:10Oh, yeah.
11:10All right.
11:11Mine's coming in a different direction.
11:15You got to fight him hard.
11:17That looks cool to get a triple, huh?
11:19They're really coming through.
11:20It's crazy.
11:21This is, you know, the last hour has just been non-stop action.
11:25And before that, it was slow.
11:26We finally found our fish.
11:30I got to get him out before the sharks.
11:32It's a mutton.
11:33If you want to hand me your rod when it comes up to grab it.
11:35Here, it's right here.
11:39Another nice one.
11:42Good job, Vic.
11:44There we go.
11:46How about that?
11:47Nice.
11:48How about that?
11:49Hey Vic, can you help me with mine?
11:51Yep, yep, yep.
11:51Right here.
11:52Another one?
11:53Yep.
11:54Oh my gosh.
11:55That's three back-to-back.
11:57I haven't even put mine in the icebox yet.
11:59Victor got one and now my dad got one.
12:03Oh, Dad, yours is very close to the size of mine.
12:07Close, but not big enough.
12:09Oh, of course not.
12:11Look at that deck.
12:12Man, they look like twins down there to me.
12:15Look at them babies.
12:16Wow.
12:17We got to get a picture of all three of us.
12:18Oh, yes.
12:19Let's do that.
12:20It's been a long time since I've fished with my daughter.
12:25She's been just a fantastic mom all this time and she got to sneak out and slay some
12:32muttons and she got the biggest one.
12:35And I'm proud of her and glad to be here with her.
12:38Thank you, Dad.
12:39All I know is...
12:45Baby Lily wants you to be out here.
12:47She knows you're having fun.
12:51I'm just very thankful for my mom.
12:56Yeah.
12:58Deb's back at home watching Lily and, you know, Brian's got an amazing wife.
13:02Brooke's got an amazing mom and I can see where Brooke has her genes for being an amazing mom.
13:07It comes from her mom.
13:09And one day Lily will be out here with us and then my mom can join us and be holding
13:14a big fish too.
13:15So we're going to get these in the box and maybe fish for a little bit longer before we head
13:19home to our favorite little girls.
13:38Look at the big fish Lily.
13:39What do you think?
13:43Wow!
13:44Wow, that's a big fish home baby.
13:46Alright guys, welcome back to the fillet table.
13:49So we ended up just going straight home after we caught those three buttons in a row.
13:54And we took some of our mutton to a restaurant and the restaurant cooked up our fish for us.
13:59Three different ways if you guys have ever been to the Keys before.
14:02It's called Lazy Days.
14:03And you have to get Lazy Day style.
14:04It is absolutely delicious.
14:06Smile.
14:07It's a video.
14:09It's a video.
14:11Well, this fish was swimming.
14:15Five hours ago?
14:17Maybe even less than that and now it's on the table.
14:19It's time to enjoy.
14:20And Lily's going to eat the first mutton snapper.
14:23Hey Lily, mutton snapper.
14:26Okay.
14:28Yum.
14:30Yum.
14:33Do you like that?
14:35That's the fish that your mama caught today.
14:41Wow.
14:43Good job.
14:45Yum.
14:47Yum.
14:48Good job.
14:49Lily loves mutton supper.
14:51Yeah.

14:54Bye.
14:55Bye, bye.
14:56Bye.
14:57Bye, pop.
14:58Want some more, pop, pop?
15:00Here.
15:01Here.
15:01Let's get some potato.
15:06It's so good, right?
15:10Lily's first shark.
15:12Woo.

15:13Bye, bye.
15:14Bye, bye, bye, bye.
15:15Bye, bye, bye, bye.
15:16Bye, bye, bye.
15:19she's unhappy baby but now it's been i guess two days since then and i'm finally getting
15:25to fillet a fish so now it's time for me to fly which i have not i don't even know
15:31where to start
15:36there we go just like i haven't caught a fish in 11 months i haven't flayed a fish in 11
15:43months but
15:46i think catching a fish is probably easier
15:50if you haven't done it in a while versus flan so hopefully i can do this fish justice
16:00the boys have been fishing every single day i've been hanging out at the house with my mom
16:09and we have been hanging out in the pool we went to lunch yesterday had a delicious lunch and just
16:19enjoying the keys on island time
16:24the nosiums are out right now and they are destroying my legs
16:34the boys have been on a grouper hunt but they haven't caught a grouper yet but they have been
16:41slaying the mutton snappers and catching a lot of sharks so here we go there's our first side
16:50i'd say that's not too shabby not too bad for taking 11 months off
16:57so these knives i'm using are dexter outdoors as always you guys can save 20 with my code brook20
17:05at dextraoutdoors.com i am trying to go as fast as possible because these nosiums
17:12are bad so there's that and then just take out those pin bones
17:24just like that we got a beautiful skinless filet ready for the kitchen and we're actually going
17:29to eat this tonight so i will meet you guys in the kitchen it's a manatee baby that's a manatee
