Ok👍
Really good episode! That seafood looked amazing! I didn’t realise Guga had multiple channels! Would you be able to link them above incase it helps anyone that’s looking?
Yeeeeeedssssssssds @guga with sonny
From northeast boy., Love your videos❤
Why is there no link to the gunshot video?
If it's a 80% mortality rate for the clawless crabs, isn't that a,lot of wasted crab
Can you eat the body? Honest question - I have no clue.
@@learnedhand8559 Illegal as they said
@@learnedhand8559 it’s illegal. They harvest the claws to help maintain population of the crabs
I used to snorkel for them when I lived there. We never took 2 claws. Seems rough.
@@learnedhand8559 yes
I’m glad we agreed on the lobster! :)
Thanks for having me brother. You the man!
Guga is the man
Great to see you on this show!
Love the crossover!
It's really cool seeing you guys collab
Cuga if you are in mystery meats then I have a surprise for you from Greece. We love it here in Greece southern Greece for being specific...
“These boys were swimmin yesterday” 😂 I love this random mafia member joining for dinner
If you wanna see stone crabs caught by hand 🙋🏼♂️ Thanks for the video credit! Great episode.
Love it!
So cool! Key west waterman
Ayyyyyee! KWWM is the man!
"Hello boys and girls!" KWWM 🦀🐟🤿
Awesome kWW!
Imagine how low the chances are for a crab with no claws to survive.. That's why us casual people leave that one claw on..
Leaving one claw leads to a higher mortality rate.
Leaving one claw makes the crab think it’s still capable of defense and hunting but it’s severely compromised missing a claw. When you take both the crab goes into scavenger mode and eats food off the bottom, stops hunting and stops picking fights lol. Taking one is only for females.
@HunterBidenscrack That’s not true, but taking both claws doesn’t increase the mortality rate enough to justify only taking one. If you take one, take two because the statistics support it. One claw is about 50/50 mortality. If taking the second claw only raises mortality to 80%, take two. The math works out, especially since females (which are protected) produce a ton of baby crabs, but they only need one male. I’ve been drinking, but I’m pretty sure that’s basically how it works.
ya, last time I checked If I go diving I'm only allowed one claw, but that was a while ago. maybe commercial fisherman have different rules.
@@Sniperboy5551I too have been drinking, but the 80% figure was also the high end. It could be lower
AI generated B roll does not work sunny.
Lmao shut up
I agree, I want to see historical photos or real videos, not something that is swirly and fake
agree, that was a very jarring and unpleasant addition, hope it doesn't get used again

Sonny's right, the idea that a crab with no claws will be able to successfully fight off the crabs with claws intact, and reproduce, is utterly absurd
Yup, 90% of the crabs with no claws will die.
Its a stupid fucking policy to only look good on paper.
If they changed it to 1 claw, it would DRASTICALLY increase survivability.
no such thing as for or off or fight or fx ofx about reprodx or not, cepuxuax, self beinx s givinx valuex, and any perfx any nmw, doesn tmatter, idts
@@MrTumbleweed video stater 46%to 82% where did you get 90%?
@@zes3813 did you just call me an idiot?
@@frankmacleod2565 don't worry brother with that language he made himself look stupid nothing else
Somebody got a little A.I happy for this one
It's such a waste considering barely any of the declawed crabs will survive for long
Yeah I wonder if they can take one claw, or protect/shelter them until the claws grow back?
@@nettaleanne my auntie is missing both arms she’s doing fine
The mortality stats vary quite a bit depending on which study you look at. The current system works, so why change it? Even a declawed male crab can still reproduce and they don’t harvest from egg-bearing females. 20% survive, so I don’t see how it’s a waste when the ones that die end up back in the food chain anyway. I’m not good at articulating the rationale, but it makes sense. They’ve done plenty of statistical analysis in implementing the policy.
Depends whether or not they reproduce before they die
Consider almost every other seafood we harvest. We take it all. Leave the understanding of sustainability to the people who invest their lives into it.
I really dont like the a.i animations yall been using lately the show seemed more authentic without it
It's still authentic. It's just a cartoon image
Youl be ok its just a image
Wonky images have no place among expertly recorded videos.
Agreed. AI images are essentially the same as those character drawings you can get at fairs.
the word you are looking for is Caricature @@rbwirth12
Those Ai video clips are rough as fuck and completely noticeable.
"It's pretty choppy out here." LOL That's a calm day on the Pacific.
I agree with Sonny about Maine lobster.
The 2 claws!? How are they supposed eat or fight 😂
Crabs with both claws removed tend to favor scavenging behavior, and they use smaller auxiliary claws to pick food off the sea floor
@@roberthershey5476'Tend to favour scavenging behaviour' you mean they haven't got a choice other than to scavenge 😅🤣 that's akin to saying a one eyed man, tends to favour his left eye to see.
They don’t fight. They hide.
They mate and scavenge. 20% survival rate is actually quite high when you think about it. 80% mortality sounds bad, but it’s better than 100% if they let the fishermen take the whole thing.
The AI is so unnecessary. It just makes the video look cheaper.
Cry a river.
@@verts_tv I can generate one with Dall-E
@@verts_tv
Look, someone with cheap taste trying to make an argument.
@@verts_tvbetter not be an AI river..
I agree too. I find it weirdly interrupts the script/storyline
Why did you feel the need to use generative Ai for fish 😂😂😂
Cheap
@@Grom-rl8bm yes it really CHEAPens the viewing experience and breaks immersion with the wonky visuals
@@brugbru7412 I refuse to believe that someone cares this much about something so trivial.
@@ghostsanity2193
Loosing immersion is not a trivial thing. It makes everything look bad, even a good video. No matter how good the video is, once the immersion is broken it won't be better than dog excretion.
Also, AI images have no place among well recorded videos and the high quality of the production this video have. It simply is like putting dog excretion among perfectly ripe apples.
Connecting that with immersion. Once you see dog excretion on perfectly good apples, will you eat those apple? It makes the apples look cheaper and disgusting.
Once there are dog excretion on apples, they will no longer look as good as they were. A smudge of dog excretion on good apples will reduce their value and they will no longer look as good as they are supposed to be. Will you eat an apple if you see dog excretion on it?
Really enjoyed this series. Fun to see how the food is sourced in addition to the cooking!
Agreed!
Loved your East coast series Sonny! Great Job!
You’re new collabs are dope boi fresh
Glad you went with the Maine Lobster...I'm from Maine, But also lived in S Florida. Also Lived in VA and LOVE Blue Crabs...steamed and soft shell...nice job Sonny
Love the videos sonny, especially the east coast trip. All my favorite TH-camrs, Jacob, CJ, Luke and guga. Keep up the good work!!
A mouth watering series. Thanks a lot, Sonny. 😉 I've had drool down the front of me the last several Sundays!!
4:44 bro just chucked him like nothing💀
Sonny got no respect for Mr. Krabs
@nathans1996 Especially after harvesting his big, meaty claws
omg as someone from maryland i was so happy to hear that your experience was the most memorable! now i’m moving and i’m gonna miss blue crabs but i’m kinda excited to try FL seafood now!
No stay in Maryland. We don’t want you here.
As a former Marylander, don’t get your expectations too high! You really need to pick your restaurants carefully and make your own crab cakes! Fish is usually the best!
I agree with Sonny, Soft Shell Crab is the most Amazing Seafood!
so how does that work? you just eat the whole thing?
@@ijustwannaleaveacommentony6511 Yes, one of the best experiences you'll have. You eat the shell and everything inside. Sauteed or fried, alone or in a sandwich, it's the best. If you want to try some anytime, order a Spider Roll in a sushi restaurant. That uses soft shell crab.
@@ijustwannaleaveacommentony6511yup fried and eat. all in onr
@@ijustwannaleaveacommentony6511 yes, right after it molts when the shell is soft.
Ive never had it. Always wanted to
I just think it is wrong to take both claws . A crab needs to eat too . Now how is the crab going to survive to eat when it takes 2 years to grow its claws back just take 1 claw .But anyway you might as well put it out its misery and eat it all .
What's with the creepy A.I. fish? Come on Sonny, your vids are excellent because they are so real!
CJ from FV Miss Paula is gonna love Sonny's comments at 16:57!
In my country its actually illegal to break off the claws of the crab, and throw it back out, alive. The crab uses its claws to eat, and defend itself, so when you remove both, they have a high chance of dying.. Slowly. From hunger. Or if they are lucky, you break it off at the wrong spot, so they bleed out quicker. Its a dumb practice that simply doesnt work for the intented purpose.
That AI rendition of a Mahi had me in shamples.
Unpopular opinion, but I kinda like it. It adds extra comedic value to the video 😂
Yeah that was fantastic!
@@Sniperboy5551 could've paid an actual artist tho instead of a job-stealing AI
Thank you BEFRS team. This channel has quickly became my favourite watchable not just on TH-cam but in general
Definitely loved this seafood series. Great content.
The growth of this channel since the pandemic days is Massive! Happy for you Sonny! 🎉
Great run down the coast. Wonderful tour
Im so happy to see Jacob on here. Good stuff man making it big.
Manatee, they don't call them sea cows for nothing 😂
A.I. generated pictures of humans makes me feel weird inside. They tickle something in my tism brain wrong.
what timestamp
Your Autism brain?
What brain?
Not everything is about having autism. Sometimes things are just weird to people of all kinds.
Hogfish will absolutely blow your mind. The great thing about it too is that it’s not really a fish commercial boats go after because they’re so finicky. Keep up the good work Sonny!
Another AMAZING series WELL DONE team :).
imagine aliens abducting humans, removing their arms and then throwing the human back.
Poor camera man lol I give him props bc its never fun to throw up while on the waves
Great tour, fantastic video
That beat up chicken mesh crab trap, is the same as I was using on the west coast of Mexico, they were brought in from Maryland. It caught well and was very light to work with, it even had the rebar surround on the bottom to anchor it.
Key West Waterman has the best fishing TH-cam channel in the keys!!
Every sunday here in Philippines @8pm .it's like im i a cinema watching your show Sonny.love your videos soo much.since pandemic time.
Awesome to see some of Will's * Key West Watermans * footage making it to your video , Great Video cheers for taking us along ,
Aren’t the claw arms for defense and pulling apart food? How tf are they supposed to eat with no hands for 3 years??
I only have 1 arm and I do okay.
Florida fish looks absolutely phenomenal. Can't beat some good ol' East Coast seafood!
Florida is actually considered down south love.
awesome series!
I've had deep fried soft-shell crab in a restaurant in Coral Bay, WA one time, and it just blew my mind, but then I've had my mind blown by Australian seafood a good number of times...
Soft-shell crabs though really is an experience not to be missed...
we're AI-generating our stock footage now? wild
I like it
I noticed that too lol
the Ai clips are weird ngl
You make me feel happy Sonny, such a sweet smile and sunny nature...give me a guy with a sense of humor any time. Your buddy John is one of my favorite guests, he really loves his food as do you. Have a great food day wherever you are!
I know texas is known for bbq beef, but don’t sleep on the seafood. Also Houston has a huge Vietnamese population dishing out some amazing Cajun fusion. Just a suggestion for a future show maybe. Love the content sir.
All the Vietnamese eat in Houston is the crawdads. They can't claim that as a cuisine.
Pre oiled shrimp
Love this series seafood is my absolute favorite dish
Funny how I can spot Key West Waterman's underwater scream when he gets a good stone crab
100% a give-a-way. Lol. Dibs is great. Amazing channel here on TH-cam as well. Has me Jonesing for some crab right now.
I had a feeling this crossover was coming! Guga said something recently, I can't remember what exactly, maybe it was, "aaaa-peace!", but it just made me think there would be a crossover. So cool! My two favorite food channels, together! YAY! ^_^
5:00 if they want to preserve these crabs then why it is allowed to take both claws
Yeah, makes no sense
they sometimes lose both naturually in fights, sometime sharks lose fins in fights, thats why its okay to fin sharks and throw them back.
They rarely lose their claws because of fight@@pluto8404
@@pluto8404 Firstly did you even watch the video, crabs with both claws removed have 46-82% mortality rate, crabs sometime lost both claw but it is very rare and those that do also don't have high survival chance either. Secondly shark need fin to swim and need to swim to be able to force water through their gills for o2, without fin they will drown or being eaten by others fish. No it is not okay to fin sharks and throw them back neither is declawing crabs but at least for crabs it is illegal to declaw a female which give them a chance to repopulated, for shark they fucking died
@@PandaCraventail okay, maybe we only fin male sharks and take 2 non symmetrical fins. Then it is good.
Typical Guga, telling people that they’re wrong for liking what they like 😒 ANYWAY! Excellent video as usual Sonny!
Yeah he's just annoying.
that last chilled seafood tower looks great
LOVED THIS SEAFOOD SERIES
Sounds like some dumb 'conservation' for the crabs. Indicator of how well it's working is the amount of clawless crabs they clearly aren't re-catching
I live an hour from Billy’s stone crab! I got to check that out ❤❤ great episode
Lucky! I want to try that so bad.😊
Omg. I wish!!!!
An very interesting,tasty and eye-opening upload.
Thank you Sonny 🦀🥰🦞🤤🦪😍🦐🥹!
16:55…. That blue shell soft crab though… my god! So good!
Another great video. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
Totally agree with Sonny. Maine lobster is far superior! Yes, because it has claws and because the tail IS sweet! You actually have to pay more for higher quality lobsters that yield sweeter, larger tails.
I’m with you on this one, have had seafood from the top of Maine to the tip of Florida, and all points in between, hands down, Maine Lobster 🦞 is the best! 👍
7:37 Sonny, another amazing informative video 🎥 8:27
That's awesome you loved the Maryland soft crab that much!
Maryland represent!!!!! Softshell crabs 💜🙌🏻
The Make a Wish comment made me laugh out wine all over my laptop! You owe me a new laptop! 🤣🤣
he brings the cooler everywhere and i love it
How is the crab suppose to eat with no claw?
Yea I'm not sure why they are taking 2 claws now, used to you could only harvest 1 claw so the crab could defend itself and eat. I guess the laws have changed now that I was unaware of
@@__G___ You could always take both but most fisherman didn't. These guys only care about money
They filter feed
@@ThomasTheTankEngine22 ahh ok. I worked in a seafood market for about 3 years and when explaining to customers about the harvesting of stone crabs I always mentioned how sustainable they were because only one claw was taken. Was definitely under the impression that was law.
it cant that's why 80% die
i grew up in the center of the keys moved out late 80s and tbh imo they are completely wrong about which is better spiny all day better texture not as sweet and you can dive off the end of a dock and get em all day during season but still a great watch
I have to agree with Sonny, the soft shell crab tops them all,an the soft shell shrimp is awesome too, I'm born and raised in south Louisiana,so I grew up on those types of foods, nothing like them...
OMG the AI generated scenes are sooo effing cringe and gross!!!!! PLEASE NEVER USE AI GENERATED VIDEOS AGAIN!!!
the AI shit is so lame, buy some stock photos ffs
I LOVE that the fisherman you met with in Maine was Jacob Knowles! I love him hahah 😂
I'm hungry now.
Thank goodness Dungeness Crab season starts tomorrow here in California ❤
I'm going to go crab fishing 😊
Best crab in the world. Even better than Lobster.
Yeah buddy, we have the other crabs beat in flavor town bc Dungeness rules!
🦀❤
@@kmoecubReally? Lobster is my favorite. I have never tried Dungeness crab before
Not even close to over. You didnt hit the Gulf coast! Dude you missed some of the best seafood in the US.
I loved seafood from the gulf, haven't eaten it since the spill
@will1631 gotta go back man lousianna,Texas coast. Best food on the coast.
Yeah I love grouper, haven't had it in years, probably my favorite fish to eat
@will1631 heck ya love me some grouper too. Nothing like a fried grouper cheek sandwich
This is a great documentary I never knew I needed
Keep things as original Sonny, AI interruption is feel so inauthentic 😅
Adding AI generated clips seems lazy. On the contrary, the ending monologue edit about fishermen was very nice.
By the way Sonny never touches Indian food for bad hygiene
These videos keep me cracking up laughing all the way. This guy Sonny is good. The guy pukin' on the side of the boat😂😅.
Whole fried softshell blue crabs are delicious especially when made into tacos here in Merida Mexico at Villa Rica by the Maya Museum.
0:44 ai goes wildin 💀 what kind of swordfish is that
Crabs without claws have 80percent mortality rate.
What's next shark fin in Hong Kong?
Soft shell crab 🤪🤪 hard to beat something you dont have to break apart
I Love your video keep up the good work 😇
Hogfish is amazing but Maine lobster is better than spiny
great video 😍😍❤❤
The sustainability of the crabs is a awesome way for generations to enjoy and experience for futures to come
How does taking their claws not cause them to starve. when two claws were removed properly 46-82% died (view related publications).
Okay peta
@@jaay1186 😄
*sigh*
Ai
Just use online images, they are better than whatever wonky shit that is
If you haven't yet, please do a video on the Southern California lobster fishermen and include a piece about the illegal lobster business in Mexico. Also, the Pacific marlin fishing is spectacular. Always great, great videos.
Kudos to whoever chooses your music❤
Y’all should dial down the ai images
Another home run Sonny. Can't wait for the next series!!
