Every year bluefis by the millions migrate down Florida's coast and on average they are 1-3lbs. Every once in a while we get a huge of run gator blues which are 10+ pounds. These Giant bluefish don't always migrate down, but when they do it is abosulte mayhem on the beach. Bluefish are also considered trash fish by many people, due to their oily flesh, soft texture and poor shelf life. However when eaten fresh, bled and properly iced these fish make amazing table fare!

I have a great recipe for blue fish. Put it in aluminum foil with butter. Throw it on the grill with a brick on top to help squeeze out the oil. Cook for about 12 minutes then throw out the bluefish and eat the brick.
Lmao that got me 😂😂

I ONCE LIVED IN NEW JERSEY, & WAS AN ADVITE FISHERMAN OF DELAWARE BAY, WHEN NOVEMBER GAME AROUND THE RUN OF BIG GAME, WAS JUST AWESOME, I HAVE PICTURES OF 18 TO2O LBS OF EXCITING FISHING NOT TO MENTION THE BIGGER ONES THAT GOT AWAY, THEY LOVE TO THROW THE HOOK RIGHT AT THE BOAT,, BUT WHAT A WAY TO KEEP WARM,, AT ONE TIME THE BAY WAS LOADED WITH SO MANY VARIETIES OF FISH, INCLUDING BLACK DRUM,, TROUT AMEN!!!😊😊😊😊😊
Sounds like the way to eat carp!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love this kind of series! No trash fish, just trash cooks!
Congrats to you and Brook!!
Wrasse is trash, so is bluefish, couldn't pay me to eat this shit, why would i even bother when theres heaps of other fish to catch and eat, obviously if you throw enough spices and garlic on a shit fish you can make it taste good.
Thank you for posting this and highlighting how good bluefish is if cooked right. I’ve been catching and eating bluefish for 30 years. I love it smoked, fried, blackened, sautéed, or broiled. Great video!
In Australia we call them Tailor.
When small chopper tailor.
One gripe here. Brothers forgot to bleed them as soon as you catch them.
Do that and did it good. Does get rip of that "gamey ness"
In Greece, because we don't have a verity of fish that hit artificial, we consider blue fish as a trophy
same in south africa
Yes, but in Greece it is prepared the Mediterranean, not the McDonald way!
I grew up in New Jersey eating Blue Fish. It is absolutely true that they will bite just about any lure. In South Jersey, a white jig is a popular choice off a jetty or beach.
They love Mackeral, in stripps! & blue crab, iam from S.Jersey also awsome!!!😊😊😊😊
@@jond5925 When I was a teen, I was blue fishing off the coast of Atlantic City and mackerel was the standard bait on the charter. We weren't fishing....we were catching. lol I'm living in Florida now and need to do more beach fishing.
Some days they will eat anything I have seen them where they are very picky a lot of times and have to go through a lot of different colors and eventually find the right one
True story...shore fishing off Highlands early am with white diamond jig did the trick every time
Here in south Africa we call it SHAD and they are a fish that is loved by many many South Africans❤, love your videos, keep up the amazing content
Up in Rhode Island they're "snapper blues" at 1 - 3 lbs, and the big ones are just blues. Tons of big guys. Catch all you want (and often when you dont want).
I love these fish. Great fighters, crazy acting, crazy eaters. You catch them off the bottom, the top and anywhere in between.
I grew up eating them and never got their bad reputation. A bit oily, kinda soft, but unique. Not crazy fishy. Some folks dont mind fish that tastes like fish. Great smoked, great chowder fish, good in a lot of ways. They sell for cheap here, but they'll sell fresh
And keep only 3 now. Wtf. 3 snappers. Not going to fill you up. We used to catch pails and pails of them back in the day.
@@PaulyV56 I respect limits I just don't understand some.... like that one. Common AF, not hugely desirable, and they voraciously eat everything in ocean.
@@PaulyV56 That's why they put a limit on them, because to many people were bailing the gorilla blues all the time.
Listen to me and listen NOW. I first bought a bluefish at a fish market many years ago. I researched the best way to cook them on the Internet and almost exclusively saw that they were considered a trash fish because they're a very bloody fish and taste was considered very gamey. BUT....I also noticed a recipe that said to marinade the bluefish in milk/buttermilk for 24-48 hours before preparing. OMG, after baking with tomatoes, onion, and lemon slices, IT WAS DELICIOUS!
It's a baymen's truth that bluefish that eat bunker or menhaden do take on a stronger, oily and fishier taste. Here in Brooklyn, they aren't sought for the table, because of their primary diet. Out in Montauk, where bunker are much less common as a food source, they tend to taste better from eating less oily food fish.
That drone view when you hooked the fish was sick. Fish on 🎣
Hey Dude, we in South Africa love them. They get up to 5kg and plus here. Legal size is about 35cm and 4 per person.
I’m 66, been eating blues my whole life, love them. The grey meat and big blood line is almost the same as red drum. Fry them side by side there’s almost no difference in taste. I’ve fooled many a blue fish haters telling them it’s a red fish , they always love them. Reminds me of my late mother, grew up kinda country, she loved yellow creamed corn, hated white corn, so I made some creamed white corn and added a bit if yellow food coloring, she loved it. We often convince ourselves we don’t like certain foods, the mind is a crazy thing
bro manipulates two people and teaches a lesson
@@luhverx7905 that’s a great comment, makes you think a bit. Alls well that ends well
This will always be my favorite channel bro i love your work so much brother!
Here in Australia we call them Tailor - Bled / fillet & skinned they are amazing cooked fresh or smoked...
Yah down here we love them and commonly they don’t grow that big.
Blues ARE trash fish. They are extremely oily and VERY fishy tasting.
We in the mid-Atlantic also get large runs of them, early spring and late fall, mixed in with striped bass aka Rockfish. Blues on top, striped bass below.
The only way they are palatable is by soaking in milk over night or smothering them in Italian dressing and broiling on the grill. They will stink up your house when cooked.
Small runs of Blues on the surface, we call Snapper blues. They'll hit anything shiny, so a spoon is a great lure for them. Heavy leader required as the teeth are as bad or worse than barracuda.
Bon appetite.
KEY IS THE BIG ONES! Born in Spain, and we caught giant Blues off the pier. My mom made them with a light wine and butter, and it was great. With any Fish, Better to gut and bleed them immediately. The little ones are not great, because the bloodline taints the fillet almost immediately, but the bigger ones have a good white meat fillet.
I personally dont mind Bluefish at all. Blues get a bad rap no matter where you're at on the east coast. But I noticed you didn't harvest the cheeks. 10/10 recommend and it's not "fishy" at all.
my biggest blue that I weighed was off the beach in new jersey just under 18lbs. I couldn't release it so I ate it. a bit more prep than the smaller ones but still very edible.
Especially when fresh the day you catch it.
What a feeding frenzy! Thousands of them. The drone footage with the regular video combined makes an awesome footage. I've never considered bluefish as a dinner fish; however, after this video, I want to try it. Thank you for restoring my faith in bluefish.
My dad used to say(probably everyone used to say, but I heard it from him) “If blues were the size of sharks the ocean would be empty”
@Landsharkoutdoors..Vic i’ve been watching your channel for years and you are one fisherman who catch cooks most of the fish people dislike and turn them into amazing dinner. That's great , I'm one fisherman who would also taste trash fish and judge for myself rather than listening to other fisherman who disregard certain species. Great video Vic and that fish look delicious
Love me some bluefish! I love catching and eating them! They are delicious! Bleed em, Eat em!
I love Bluefish!!
delicacy in south africa
My grandfather lived on east coast in 1960s and surf fished about every day in winter at Wabasso Beach area for blues and spanish mackeral. Used to fish and catch blues all morning and remember he told me back then he sold whatever he didn't personally consume for ten cents a pound to recover his gas and bait expenses and head back to house for lunch and a nap. He just loved to fish as much as anything else. Enjoy the videos.
I targeted bluefish today and finally caught some that didn’t break me off and can’t wait to cook it tomorrow! Then came home to watch bluefish videos because I really love these fish despite their reputation of being “trash”. The sandwich looked awesome and I wish I could have caught some that were 12 pounds but maybe next time! 😁
Caught my first blue fish today. Had to find out how you cook it. Mine are super huge. Went out today on a charter in Connecticut and had an awesome time battling these monsters! Thanks for sharing your cooking style and fishing adventure. I got to come your way one day. I live in SC so I should be able to make it happen.
I hafta tell you I haven't watched many of your videos. This one won me over. I love fishy tasting fish but more than that I love to fish!! Thank you for showing your fans to not be scared to eat what they catch. I will be watching for more like this.
I spent a little time on Long Island, NY as a young man from another country. I developed a lot of respect for bluefish. Great fighters and always ready to bite. Good eating too if treated right.
Loved the vid vic. I wanna go fishing with you an Adam so bad but only when it's commercial. Lol Full contact fishing. Respect y'all. Thanks for taking me a long with y'all.
I caught and ate bluefish for years when I was a kid in NJ. They’re not trash fish. I loved them.
Why do you let the blue fish suffer in that box? Why not put them out of their suffering in some humane way?
I'm 59 and 40 years ago we used to catch "slammer" blues. We would go on Miss Chris in Cape May NJ at night. You got a giant canvas bag to put your fish in. When the bite started it was non stop. Bluefish were all giants. Pool winner was usually over 30 pounds. Your arms got tired after a hour of constant reeling.
Masterfully done as always, Vic. Loved the video!
I love bluefish I’m from St. Louis whenever me and my dad go fishing with a guid in Florida they look at us crazy for keeping blues and kings Floridians are the pickiest eaters
I love/prefer ANY and ALL trash and baitfish episodes. thanks man i've been patiently waiting
Being from the Northeast I am OFFENDED at the hate blue fish are getting here 😂😂
When those slammer blues show up, they often travel up inside the Loxahatchee River. I've caught them there many times.
One of the best recipes I heard from an old timer on a party boat; "you cook the fish, you make some rice on the side. You throw away the fish and eat the rice." But on a serious note I do enjoy fishing, cooking, and eating blue fish. Smoking them on the grill always comes out very tasty. #singing the Blues
Makes great fish dip !
Try cold water bluefish, they are great. We adore them here in Istanbul.
Congratulations to you and your new wife all the best and many happy years
From connecticut had many blue fish from small to large love eating. In texas now, I haven't from any here but not a trash fish to me being 67 and still joy eating great video
Great episode! Drone footage of the first catch was beautiful. Yes, the key to blues is to eat them quick. I find it is the same with spanish macks too or any greasy pelagic.
That fo pro view was beautiful. Just to see how they were chasing after the lur was amazing
Crazy shots!! Amazing work Victor 🤙🙌
You and Adam always drop bangers! s/o to Dennis as well for the cinematics 🔥
Great video Vik! There are just fish that I pass on eating. Bluefish prepared correctly are pretty darn good.
Stay safe out there!
As always Vic, you produce interesting, entertaining, quality content. The sammich looked delicious. I grew up in Boca in the 70's and used to head to Blowing Rock for the bluefish run but we never caught them that big.
I could not image reeling 10lbders all day. I'd be in the hospital.
Loved fishing for them on the outerbanks in early spring
Great video and amazing amazing shots! Wow. Best I've seen.
I know in Florida you guys eat mullet. In Louisiana it’s considered a mayor trash fish. Bait only.
New hampshire here an I LOVE bluefish!
Great video Vik! Sandwich looked very tasty! It’s definitely true on trash cooks. Cooked and handled properly, anything can be made delicious. Some people are just taught to be snobs on some things.
Thanks for sharing!!!
I mean its still a trash fish, sure you can make then edible but there's sooooooo many better eating fish and I can cook well
@@LordCowbxyRDRstick to RDR.
@@chris6054 Exactly!
@@LordCowbxyRDR There are millions of people in this world who don’t agree with you, including many Americans in the northeast and elsewhere. The problem is that some people who have access to so many fish turn their nose up at the possibility of bluefish without ever trying it or taking the easy cook out.
@@PSSKDerby I live in the mid east coast why would I wanna eat bluefish when I can instead use them as crab bait to catch world famous Maryland blue crabs. I understand it “can” be good but it takes a lotta extra bullshit that nobody wants to deal with, it’s still oily fishy and bloody regardless of what you do, I’ll take a striper, sea trout, red fish, flounder, sea bass, white perch ect all of which live right under my dock
Bluefish Fillet
$25.99
4 FILLETS (APPROX. 6-8 OUNCES PER FILLET)
There’s a special place in our hearts for those who love bluefish. This is not “a beginner’s fish.” This is for palettes that have been out to sea, tasted life, had a few adventures. Our bluefish is wild-caught by local fisherman in the cold Atlantic waters from Long Island to the Carolinas. Its rich color matches its rich flavor. Brushed with olive oil, grilled on an open flame, a little salt. The soft, blue-hued meat quickly transforms into a silvery white. Bluefish fillets are for the purists. We at Citarella salute you.
Well an add price 2 range… $1.50 a pound wholesale Wow what a difference. Well headed and gutted filleted out then profit added from processing.
Man, What a day on the water! We do not have blue fish that big in the Gulf, at least not that Ive seen. Awesome video. Looking forward to the next.
Watching you two fish is great, always following and supporting you two . i like
Haven't watched the vid yet, but big blues make the best smoked fish dip. Also one of the hardest fighting fish
Victor this is just what I asked for, more videos a month. I love it. Please keep it up, I thought you forgot about us. Also when are you going to get married??? You have been engaged for forever???😮😢😅😊
I live in New England and up here, gators are much more common and are so fun to catch. Biggest I've caught was 36 inches and 15.9lbs. They don't deserve the hate.
If I could give this video 100 likes, I would. Thank you Victor, for shining the light on this fish.
Grew Up on long island eating these things all the time. Ice them and soak them in a buttermilk bath and the gameness goes away. Loved cooking them in a salt bake. feels like childhood.
Love them! Wonderful eating fish in South Africa 🇿🇦 we call them Shad or Elf. It's shad season now and they are delicious
I was on the beach in NJ one time and looked out in the water which suddenly turned to white froth as a school of blues attacked a school of baitfish at the surface. Nobody else on the beach even noticed. Too busy working on their tans. I was like, man wishin' I was fishin'.!
yeah ive kept small bluefish before, 14 inches here in tx, the next day they definetely got mushier then the first, probably also because they were in fresh water ice as well as i never knew you werent suppose to keep salt fish in fresh water because it draws the salts out of the fish making it softer and mushier
Congrats to you and Brooke!
I grew up fishing for blues on Nantucket off the beach. It’s how I really learned to fish! SO FUN to catch!
Awesome video guys!!!
They are an increasingly rare sight in the north nowadays. Unfortunately, the last time the FL run was goodthe following year in the NE was poor. Hopefully, that was just a one-time coincidence.
I grew up in Jacksonville FL, and we used to routinely catch Blues and Jack's in the mouth of the St. John's River....even little ones fought so hard and were so aggressive. My dad never let us bring 'em home for dinner though.
Telling everybody all the secrets of all the pier fisherman can always tell when somebody started out on the pier because I know how to cook every fish
Great video always looking forward to this epic content!!!! Favorite fishing youtuber by far
Great video , top water action !! The very small ones are great pan-fried.
giant blues used to a dime a doz off of nj and long island...fun to catch, great fertilzer or cat food
Yeah, I used to go party boat on Miss Barnegat Light and Golden Eagle and Miss Belmar, did alot of night blues. Once hurricane Sandy hit it really screwed up the blue fish migration patterns. It hasn't recovered because the go further offshore and deeper water. Miss those days.
@@DaRealPhillyJawnI ve been on both those boats, plus the Doris May,Party Boats are no place for people who get sick,,, over 100 people packed like sardines on a sunny but rough day,, people were laying on the cabin floor, almost impossible to get to the head,, what a bad memory,, but i still caught fish!!!😊😊😊
So rad to see someone on the east coast finally throw a surface iron. You can get the cadence and swim speed of the jig more dialed in with a conventional or baitcasting reel.
Side note, as much as I LOVE the JRI stinger, yours is rigged upside down.
Hook should be on other end, and line tie is where the hook is.
A good bluefish bite is reallyyyyy fun. Thanks for the vid felt like I was rigth there in the action.
You have to switch the hook and where you tied it will swim better
Viktor, another great vid. I fish mostly Cape Cod and Islands. Fresh bluefish is staple of many restaurants in the area. I would just add that they are toothy critters for sure. Grilled fish sandwich is best but they are wicked good when smoked too. OK Best keep up good work.
Love the content, love everything you do. So I’ve got a challenge for you. It relates to your statement, “No trash fish just trash cooks” I believe that to an extent, but I wanna see you turn the ultimate trash fish into a good dish, let’s see what you can do with a Carp!
being raised in Brooklyn fishing out of Sheepshead bay in the 60's and 70's the summer fish was blue fish. I must have eaten hundreds of blue fish dinners Cheers
Like my mentor Papa Vik told me: “There aren’t trash fish just trash cooks”
When I was in Indonesia, they made these fish meatballs. Bluefish seem to be the perfect meat texture to make em. They put it in everything from soup to making open fire kabobs
Thank yall so so so much for making great videos
G'day there. Down here in Aus they're called Tailor. I grew up eating them as the old man loved his beach fishing. Never seen them here as big as this. Probably around the 9lb is the best I've caught up on Fraser Island. Anyway, we bleed them straight away for reasons you mentioned. Bloody beautiful when fresh. Love your content! Thanks, Peter.
In australia we call Bluefish Tailor, thry dont get as big as the ones in the us usually but there are the occasional ones that get to around 4 ft and 20-25 pounds
Biggest Tailor ever caught in Australia didn't even make 4ft
@@ebisu8824 Yes it did, Australia has some of the largest specimens ever caught, including multiple fish around the 25lb mark, infact for a long time a fish caught in Western Australia held the line caught record at 29lbs, and specimens of over 30lbs have been caught in set nets in estuaries along the south coast. To put their size potential into perspective, a captive fish in WA that was once a juvenile simply caught from the beach nearby and put on display, grew to 130cms long and 38lbs in weight... They aren't nearly as common at a good size in Australia true, but that doesn't mean they can't grow, they still get VERY BIG in Aus🤷🏽♂️.

WAIT!! WHAAAAAT?!! Dude! I am making it a bucket list to book a trip with Adam and/or Vic&Brook. I've been watching Vic and Brook TH-cam videos for probably about 6years now. One video I was watching on Vics channel , a couple years ago, he had Adam on the boat and said that Adam had his own TH-cam channel, So, i immediately searched and followed Adams content and have been watching his videos in addition to y'all's, for a couple years now. Needless to say, i freaking love all 3 of you guys content and would FREAK OUT if i ever had an opportunity to go out and fish with Vic, Book, and/or Adam. And, now that i just found out that could be a reality , I'm gonna have to figure something out to make this shit happen, lol. Thank you again Vic, for another amazing video.
Congratulations to You and Brook ❤ Literally my favorite TH-cam couple, with the most sweetest family on both Vics and Brook side.
God bless you guys ❤️
In the southern Caribbean bluefish is considered excellent eating. We call them ancho and it’s referred to as ‘fisherman’s fish’ as fisherfolk keep them for themselves instead of selling
That's one of my favorite fish nice video best cooking bro enjoy
Im glad the they show what type of lure the're using im going to try them
i love eating bluefish! i prefer it over grouper. Whiting, flounder, and bluefish are my fave fish to eat
Just subscribed. I have never seen bluefish that big.Awsome trip.The vid you made 4 months ago with lobster for big cueberas was amazing.Looking forward to your next video.👍🐠🐟🦈🤙
Back in VA, used to run a homeless house. State gave us Taylor's Blues a lot!
Horrid fish. Lol😂
I thawed enough to feed 40, plus samples... I filleted them all, grabbed some frying pans and started searing chunks in various spices.
Once several guys agreed on a spice blend, I went to town. Nobody knew it wasn't some kind of white fish.
Treat it right.
Now to watch the video.
That size we call them blue shad. We catch ours on pilchards or sardines. Am based in SA in the western cape. It makes great pickle fish and over Easter
Those drone shots are the best, thanks Vic.
I prefer the snapper/cocktail blues - I bleed them and bead and fry them up. Fun fact- bluefish are best when fresh as their meat doesn't hold up well when frozen "even when vaccuum sealed" their meat turns to mush when thawed. Awesome video!
Be watching. You and Brook from the be beginning
Loved the proposal and now that you are sporting a RING would like to see some wedding pictures
Great family channels
Some of my best memories are of catching big blues with my dad in New Jersey. Eaten fresh and prepped properly, they’re okay. Hard fighters. They’re cooler than jacks
I grew up in jersey to in point pleasant and I loved getting those giants in may every year
I LOVE catching blues. Get on a hot bite and you can absolutely destroy them on jigs. Great quick action packed fights. I make fish cakes out of them.
Victor: "I've seen Bluefish as far as Deerfield!"
Bluefish: "Dude, I exist almost worldwide and can be caught in five different continents..."
