Kind of an unexpected catch and cook on my end. Didn't expect to encounter this fish on my little trips but I have heard nothing but good things about them. I also briefly discuss the poisonous side of these fish...basically one strain has them but it still is a cultural phenomenon.
I basically jigged 1/8 oz jigheads with assorted Gulps (shrimp & nemesis) for a standard back bay assortment of fish like snook, jacks and the puffer. The weather was going to get ugly so I made the most of this trip in a limited amount of time.
Here is where I was lodging for this trip: sanibelislandbe...

I would love to try the fish you catch trash fish or not love your videos keep up the awesome work and be safe.
I need to catch a fugu
EliasVFishing we have a ton in the summer down the shore
Hi. Can you please tell me where you bought your Hobie kayak and how can my dad become a member of the Brooklyn Yacht Club.

Also for anyone wondering these are Northern Puffers also known as "Sugar Toads" due to their delicious meat. Unlike other species of Puffer their meat does not contain poison.
I've had them before, they are excellent! But when I catch a pufferfish I find them too cute to kill :/
It did look pretty adorable. Poor little bugger.
poor little TASTY bugger!
That makes you a not nice person! Evil!!!
lol!
Fish Crazy you must be oriental.....With that kinda attitude how much fish will be left for your kids? And your grandkids
Best real world fishing channel on youtube for guys who don't want overboard sponsor fantasy and 60K bass boats.
Super stoked for how far you're going with this thing Elias! Keep up the awesome content, and stay humble bro!
"is he gonna pop" hahhahaa
tdfitch I was cracking up when he said that 😂
Eats it like a drumstick, meanwhile Japanese chefs train their whole lives to prepare it. 🤣😂
Splash Attack TCG they're not the same kind of pufferfish
that puffer was a toad fish only the skin is only toxic.
That is exactly how you prepare and eat a toadie. They're delish
The only deadly pufferfish live in Japan. In America there aren't any pufferfish that's gonna kill you
drew13600 except this is a toadie. Not a Japanese fugu. And no, you don't need to "be more careful with it"
Years ago on Long Island my family would go to Robert moses state park and people would use crab traps with Squid to catch them 3 of 4 at a time - they would take home buckets full in a hour . I can't remember the last time I caught one.
I love seeing these "oddball" catch and cooks. It really goes to show that there's plenty of good table fare most of us aren't aware of.
@EliasVFishing I was sitting here watching this video and i was like oh man he looks like he lives in the same state as me. Then I saw the pink house there and knew exactly were your fishing. I fish there all the time.
Did he just say hes going to feed the most poison parts to the birds 😆
That species is not poisonous at all.
9
That's a toadie bro
@stuff I find INTERESTING
That is fugu. Just a different kind of pufferfish.
Lone Wolf that's not poisonous
fisher man: oh, we got him.
Fish: it's MA'AM!
OMG THE PUSHER FISH WAS SO CUTE WHEN HE PUFFED UP😍😍😜🤪
Ah yes the pusher fish
You know what this means...
Turn back now....
I’m warning ya
🥕 🐡 æugh*
I caught a half dozen nice big winter flounder fishing off a small jetty behind Ryanoids Channel during the early 1980's and hooked four nice big blowfish, I took the fish home and my late dad sautéed the flounder felts with the skinned blowfish in some olive oil and put the fish in a marinara sauce and those blowfish where just like big beautiful drumsticks with the flounder over a plate of spaghetti and those blowfish were so good you could eat the bone ! To anyone who hasn't tried sea squab and if you ever have the fortune of catching some blowfish don't hesitate to bring them home and cook em up, you just don't know what you're missing - they're so good they are to die for !!!!!
Finger Licking Good !!!!
Never knew Ray Ramano was such a Fisher.
Been watching you for couple years and just noticed you only have 34k sub that’s some BS everyone that watches Elias needs to tell their mother father friends uncle everyone #EliasVforpresident
Yet people like First state fishing and senko skipper. Who are beyond clueless......are exponentially larger. Really is very sad!
Tackle Advisors spot on beyond clueless Elias is one of the handful of guys I watch and look up to because you can tell how much passion and effort they put into all this and funny you commented because I watch and support your channel as well so thank you for doing what you do also!!!
lol senko skipper...
Tackle Advisors hit the head on the nail with that one! Don't understand why senko skipper has so many subs when he's so clueless smh 🤦♂️
Thanks guys, I don’t clickbait hard or treat my audience like idiots. People get in this game to make money off TH-cam. And coincidently Fishing was the platform they chose. I started as someone that lives off Fishing and added TH-cam as one of my platforms. It’s a little different.
Guess I'm really old - I didn't read all but No one here I saw said the NJ bays were filled with them in the 60s. There should be a limit on them. Back then people took home hundreds at a time. I remember when I was 10/12 my family brought home like 250. Something to be concerned about is the turtle type jaw. Yeah, if they clamp down you can have real trouble. BUT - IN THE 60s IT WAS REPORTED THAT PEOPLE GOT VERY SICK WHEN BIT DUE TO SOMETHING ON THOSE JAWS.
2:25 white sand perch. Good eating
Fish Crazy no she's a mud fish
No that's a mojarra great tarpon and snook bait
Yes, its a Mojarra
Sand perch and mojarra are the same species
Kagiso W also called a squirrel fish in Tampa
2:45 is a sand perch I believe. Great snook bait, and quite nice eating as well.
Majorra actually. Sand perch are totally different looking fish.
One of my top fish to eat. Super easy to clean and they freeze very well. No rib bones to deal with either. We hit the OBX in the early spring and load up on em when there spawning.
Pufferfish Are Just ADORABLE..
This was alot of fun to watch, 2 thumbs up!👍👍
At 2:50 we called those sand perch or silver perch. They seem to have different names depending on where you are.
That little puffer is sooo cute why is the noise it makes so adorable
(Edit: ok yeah that looks delicious)
Omg when they have no spikes and they puff up when they are baby’s it’s sooo cute
Wife used to buy by the bag full,maybe 5 lbs. cost about 5 bucks. Then they disappeared. Delicious. We used to catch them plenty at Highlands out in the bay. I've heard they are coming back.
Well the vid is up, you must have lived thru the Fugu experience. That's so cool! Had I known that our pufferfish weren't poisonous I would have been eating them for years, THANX, NOW I KNOW. Very cool vid!
I grew up eating these in Florida. They were our favorite . We use to catch them abundantly along sea walls with cut bait.
I began to cry when you didn’t butterfly it 😢 Amazing videos keep em coming.
It's actually a cute lookin' fish, but nothing I would ever eat. Not if my health is at stake. This is such a great channel.
2:28
It’s a silver dollar fish
Looks like ocean fish fight so much harder for their size. Another great video man!!
I eat all fish but last year u got my first puffer fish at ocean city maryland and I feel in love lmao..the cutest lil guy had his tounge out and all and I could not bring myself to keep it but I did film it lol..
You deserve so many more subs. I love your videos more than any other fishing TH-camr. Keep up the great work!
For absolutely perfectly cooked fish try sous-viding. It's like poaching but brought to perfection with no timing issues which both poaching and frying share. To my mind fish is more sensitive to cooking than steak. And like steak, it ends up a compromise of the outer part over-cooked and the inner nearer perfection, but that's only if you get the timing right. I converted my anti-fish sister with poaching (but also with a sauce, as below). With sous-vide not a bit of it is overcooked and timing makes no difference; it's completely evenly cooked. Once poached/soud-vided, I may also make a Crème fraîche sauce (french-style soured cream) with 40% fat, maybe some lemon, with the results of frying a chopped up scallop. With a steak or frying fish (without the batter/flour) I may just dump the Crème fraîche on top of the fish/meat and reduce for 30 seconds to make the sauce. Over-reduced results in an oil-slick or too thick sauce. Crème fraîche at 30% fat goes a bit sludgy. Not good for frying but fine for making dips. In france the 40% stuff (which is anywhere between 35%-42%) is premium and called Crème fraîche D'isigny. Currently Dairy issues mean a shortage of Crème fraîche and butter, sadly. I can't find it in the UK currently. No one is selling it.
hats off to you man, you have a strong heart to cook and eat the pufferfish. always catch it and put it back. it do look like chicken. happy fishing man!!
Atlantic pufferfish aren't poisonous
I've been eating them forever. I just peel the skin off and take the back muscle. Taste like frog legs. I have heard that the poison is in the liver, and I don't eat fish guts
+SIFI,
Only certain parts of the pufferfish served as fugu contain tetrodotoxin.
The liver, gonads, the eyes are the most lethal parts, and puncturing or damaging these organs during the preparation is where the danger lies.
Cleaning puffers is not all that difficult, though accidents do seem to still happen.
My understanding is, daring chefs will allow for the slightest bit of toxin to touch some of the fish, so the diner feels numbmess on the lips and tongue.
Perhaps a little too much, and...
indeed they are, that is not fugu though. not that id trust eating any kind of puffer fish anyway as a lot of them are toxic
stuff I find INTERESTING it’s probably not an actual fugu
all puffer fish are poisonous ALL of them this is a blow fish so he wouldn't be in any danger
Omg I was laughing so hard when he said “is he gonna pop? How far can he go?” 😂😂
0:34 fish jumping near the dock. Looking at the rod, you will think the fish is somewhere deep under the boat.
From wiki: United StatesEdit
Cases of neurological symptoms, including numbness and tingling of the lips and mouth, have been reported to rise after the consumption of puffers caught in the area of Titusville, Florida, U.S. The symptoms generally resolve within hours to days, although one affected individual required intubationfor 72 hours.[23] As a result, Florida banned the harvesting of puffers from certain bodies of water.
Ruslan Kudlai I don’t think it’s the right kind of pufferfish
Yes, the kind of pufferfish that he caught is the one that in certain parts of Florida, is poisonous. myfwc.com/fishing/saltwater/recreational/puffer-fish-prohibition/
Mark Apgar ciguatera
Ruslan Kudlai i
Ruslan Kudlai Is it really that good? Lol
Lol the fish at 2:10 when u put em back, it looked like you one handed hard touch down it’s ass into the water hahaha nice vid btw
Hope you dialed 91 and held your finger over the 1! Seriously though I really like these videos, keep them up
Man I'm so jealous. Been requesting this one for awhile. They're easy to catch, easy to clean, and easy to cook. By far my favorite fish to eat. I could eat these every day. They only have the spine down the middle, so you have huge lumps of boneless meat on each side. I'm drooling watching you eat that lol.
They are pretty cute, he tried his best to look fierce so you would drop him. I sort of felt bad for him, lol but then I saw how easy he was to clean and how content you were when you are eating him. I use to play with them on the sea wall in New Orleans as a child.
Chicken of the Sea!
Keep rocking it Elias, I catch a shit ton of them, now you gave me the urge to gobble up
we catch alot of those here in Sarasota florida,and I can't wait to try one next time it jumps on my line.thanks elias!
Tbh my favorite catch and cook page
One of my all time favorite inshore eating fish , ever !
Fish at around 2:52 is called a mojara or man perch some people call em sand perch, super good bait for snook they get huge too for a bait fish
A man that can fish is so attractive. I don't know what i like watching more, him or the fish. Lol
Shayla Miller you can watch me fish anytime 👀👅
„A man that randomly kills and eats animals just for his enjoyment really gets me wet“ ugh....
Miss Neko FOR HIS ENJOYMENT? YOU HAVE TO EAT TO SURVIVE. SMH LIBERALS
YES of course....omg he does NOT have to eat puffer fish to survive. This guy does not live in a 3rd world country does he ??? there are SO many other options available for this person to eat to survive (vegan/vegetarian/and meat if you incist which I know you will...) he can easily buy stuff at a supermarket or bio food, or grow his own stuff to survive. So yes this kind of eating behavior is purly for enjoyment and I do judge that kind of reckless and indulgent behavior concerning food when others don't have any and it is on top destroying eco systems (fishing does) and endangers species. You very well know he is just killing and eating this animal because it is his hobby, NOT to survive. So yes I also do judge people fishing ONLY as their hobby, for their own enjoyment. Your ignorance and lack of education is very obvious in your comment. "Liberals" is not a slur, so yes thank you for that compliment mr. backwards conservative. I'm also not from the US so I guess that category doesn't quite fit me ...I guess for Americans all Germans (which I am) are liberals :D and I guess we are....oh so much suffering living in this awesome contry where I can study for free, have perfect cheap but great health insurance, the social security here ohhh my suffering :D so yeah...mic drop
Miss Neko Tons of fish in the ocean so not a problem.
At 2:54 that fish is a muhara/ sand perch good snook bait and the bigger ones are good to eat like a the one you chaught
It's funny how no one balks at vids where trout, bass, barracuda are taken and eaten, yet when a fish has a semi-human like face, it's bloody murder.
Thanks for sharing.now that I have your bait it’s going to be a good summer,fall 🎣 fisfing
Always enjoyable to watch your channel i usually hit the thumbs up before i watch it. Should definitely have a tons more subs a real fisherman. Have a good day and stay safe Jimmy from North Attleboro Massachusetts
You have no idea how happy I was to see your video in my sub box.
Puffer fish is very good to eat. Used to catch them in Maryland with cat food. Right off the Motel .The Roe from these fish are excellent mixed with scrambled eggs. Caught them for years.
I always called those silver fish mojarra. No idea if that's what they really are or not. I'm going to try puffer this summer when I go to FL now, thanks for doing that.
I haven't had puffer in years, but as I remember it was very tasty. One waning 0 for the poisonous varieties, the toxin is *not* neutralized by cooking.
Unknown fish was a mojarra, and they are excellent eating
You should get a creel they are pretty nice to keep fish alive in
That fish was so scared he's like I'm going to be buttered what
Not poisonous! Very tasty. I never throw back the larger ones that we catch in North Carolina. To make them easier to clean look up a utensil called the Toad Tool.
I am so keeping Northern pufferfish now whenever I get them as bycatch fishing for porgy and other stuff
Hey Elias, how about a comparison video between your outback, compass, and revo? Overview, pros and cons, your thoughts and preferences. Tight lines.
ITS SO CUTEEE UGHHH 😭🐡
2:40 yea that's a mojarra, they look like giant sand perch basically. Great eating
Hey at 2:50 how about that shadow in the water bye ya.
That looks delicious actually. Great catch man they’re some really cool looking fish.
NJ in the 70's we caught puffer fish by the garbage can full in Barnagut bay. How we cleaned them: Use a nail threw a board, impale it through the head, cut around the head and peel the skin off like a banana. Then gut it. Bread and fry like a drum stick. It even tasted like fried chicken.
Oh, I didn't know there were branches of puffer fish that were safe to eat. That's neat.
At 2:23 was the "What is that?" Possibly a Mojarra which is also called a Sand Perch?
He is soooooo cute I went to Virginia Beach and I found a baby pufferfish it was adorable
The thing about puffers... DON'T GET YOUR BODY NEAR THEIR MOUTHS! Seriously they will cut nice little round chunks clean out of you in a heartbeat.
You want to try something good, bash up some chips to a nice breadcrumb type consistency and use them to bread your fish before you fry them...
Same family as triggerfish. Serious chomp
Ha so true ! Had one in aquarium as a kid. Took it out to see if would puff up
Lil bastard bit me 😮
there's an episode of River Monsters where Jeremy Wade found out just how much damage they can do.
Hey brother props to u buddy, but Robert Arrington from deer meat for dinner puts the smackdown on the Toadies I highly recommend you check that video out. But I say you did a great job kudos to you bro.
As long as you don't eat the skin, the roe, or the entrails, you'll be fine. I ate a ton of it as a kid in NY. There were so many in the Great South Bay that we were catching them in crab traps. Alas, no more are they that plentiful.
“Unknown” fish was a massive mojarra:)
You have subs in Sweden as well, great channel that even inspired my own cooking a bit.
The fugu was adorable 😂😩
That thing looked so good with the chips and lemon mmm
Was just in that part of Florida last weekend, had a great time even though we only got one keeper (spotted seatrout)
It wasn't the Simpsons in the 90's that made people think all Puffers are deadly. It was the Japanese dying from eating puffer fish in Japan and it's been that way for decades before teh Simpsons.
LovedIt! Looked really good, the meat was so clean and white! Easy to cook...what’s not to like right?
Every video starts with “eahhrigh guys” lol love it
how much did that blow fish weight? 4 ounces?
You never had it up north? It was one of the first fish I cooked myself. Used to fish for them on the Rockaway side of Jamaica Bay
As a north easterner who finds himself displaced in Florida for college I'm gonna have to find a way to catch some of these for myself :^)
I'm still stuck on catching & cooking bluefish out of Ponce inlet (guess you can't take the Connecticut out of me)
Silver jenny's are small aren't they? that fish looks like a Silver piranha..im most likely wrong, but it has the structure of one, which is why im confused
Surprised you never caught them in Jamaica Bay, we used to fill 5 gallon buckets with them when I was a kid in Shinnecock Canal
Great vid yummy fish.I watch key west Steve,but not so much any more he seemed to give up on catch and cook.A lot of people luv catch and cook to give them ideas,and to know if fish is good or not. Thanks for your show!!!
He will start doing it again in time I’m sure
Key West Kayak Fishing awesome channel him Elias and Sea Money are my favorite TH-cam channels
You can filet the meat of the bone and fry them like chicken fingers too. they are one best fish to eat.
3:38 "is he gonna pop" hahahaha
So fugu is only poisonous if you puncture their liver right? I thought they had poisonous fins as well?
Chef train like years to prepare this dish, and you fried it, good job😂😂
Great video. I never thought to eat them puffers. Next one I catch will be dinner.
How about a review of the Dark Matter rod? Think it could handle stripers?
Poison, poison, poison, oooo tasty fish!
Great video n catch
I do catch alot of those but I put them back fear of them as the poision ones
Its so Cute like a Fish Ballon or a Ball😂❤
