- Catch And Cook - Key West Scavenger Soup.
The plan was soup. The ingredients was up to what I could catch. I pulled a nice 16" Mangrove Snapper from the Backcountry Mangroves using my new Shakespeare Ugly Stik GX2 combo. Although that was the general plan for the soup, I figured that adding some additional components would make it a more appealing "seafood soup". I hit the pipes to catch a few Shrimp (I got a few but they were small so mixed up some bait shrimp I had in the freezer) and lucked out by spying a really nice size Spider crab hiding amongst the rocks. That quickly became an addition to the soup. So, in the end we ended up with a nice "seafood" soup made with snapper chunks, spider crab, and Shrimp. I decided to go with a bit of Italian flair on this one.
Soup Info:
I created a fish stock using the head and skeletal remains of the Mangrove Snapper. I threw in some yellow onions, celery, carrots, garlic, green onions, and a can of vegetable broth. After simmering for around 15 minutes, I drained the fluid which became the fish stock.
For the main soup, I used the fish stock, shrimp, mangrove chunks, spider crab, and added chunks of celery, red onions, bell peppers, garlic, green onion, and a can of whole peeled tomatoes.
For toppings I used some chopped Basil and Cilantro with a side of hearty toasted bread.
Yea, it was great.

Stand up kayaking, pole bending, grunting, "OH MY GOD HE ABOUT TO BREAK OFF!" action the first 40 seconds of the fishing video...That my friends is how you know you about to watch a good fishing video lol
Gotta hook the viewers that first few seconds. Then you just gotta wind them in with good content.
Key West Kayak Fishing I see what happens when you "hook things in" lol
Key West Kayak Fishing that was a small mangrove tbh
Not only are you an incredible fisherman but a fantastic chef as well. You have truly mastered life in the key's.
Awesome catch and cook. This just put the keys in my "might retire to" pile.
I think it gets on a lot of peoples lists. Definitely pulls down the people for winter time.
Key West Kayak Fishing thats

Realistic Fishing good luck 👍🏽👍🏽

Hi
Realistic Fishing : At least on a place to visit list!
I would laugh if that spider crab would have eaten the shrimp
Shrimp stuffed crab fish soup. It all ends up in the same place. LOL.
Your videos are amazing no click bait just you doing wgat you do keep it up i subscibed
james coyle the lobsters do that to me
bruh when he smelled the fish and said "smells like soup" i was dead
By the thumbnail I thought it was a HUGE spider until I started watching and became pleasantly surprised.
If only the internet allowed for smells. Looks delish!
That could be a double edged swords. Remember the trolls.
Key West Kayak Fishing have you watched "how to basic"?
Imagine the smell that would put out...
Siedler Joe Like maybe you'll smell a butthurt keyboard warrior and sjw feminists and shit.
Siedler Joe come on go into detail
Damit boy.... That looks great. As always keep them great videos coming.
Will do. Gotta keep everybody hungry.
That looks awesome! I'm sure it smells great, too. Thanks for sharing. More, please.
Very nice video! Reminds me of another youtube channel Deermeatfordinner, i love these kinds of videos where it shows the catching of the fish and stuff! Subscribed for sure!
Lol, i love Deermeatfordinner channel as well. That dude is awesome
Your videos are entrancing. Everything looks so amazing!
I've gotten hooked on to catch and cook videos. I don't know why but they're awesome.
what an inspiration. with a moped scooter and a kayak , living the dream in the Florida Keys . absolutely incredible , thank you !
Wow looks amazing
that is th first time I've seen the spider crab added to a dish. Well done and thanks again for showing us all something new and different
A crab is a crab albeit a bit of a scary looking fellow. Top shelf tasting though but not a lot of meat.
Looks lush!
Sweet Jesus that looks amazing! Just wow!
Yea, it was good.
by far my most favorite CNC vid I watched yet! good going, keep it up!
Yea, the Spider Crab was a good kicker. Thanks for watching.
Excellent cooking video - delicious looking soup - THANKS!
Your welcome. It was fun to catch, make, and eat. LOL.
Looks Fantastic!
It was a lot of work but it tasted amazing.
Outstanding Catch and Cook ...

Thanks a lot underscorekyle. Thanks for the support.

A real soup that eats like a meal! I just subscribed Sir... really enjoy your videos and looking forward to viewing more. Thanks again! Keep safe.
So that final product looks amazing.
Wow looks really good!
Yea, it was perfect for a nice cold mid 70's night. LOL. Definitely a hardy soup.
This video has inspired me to go catch my dinner today.
Good deal. Now going through the drive thru is not officially considered "catching".
Key West Kayak Fishing, Who said anything about drive thru lol.. I never fast food, I'm a chef and cook all my organic meals.. plus, I grow all my veggiez.. I said catch cause it's been a while since last I went fishing.. now I only have one reel working and all thee others have gone bad.. Sucks going with one rod and reel combo... cutting the line to change hooks, weights, gulp, jiggs, etc everytime you change up thee targeted fish..
Journey Is The Way : I know! That little outrigger on the kayak was cool, too! I live in Washington state so if I fall into the water at this time of year it is going to be one cold ride home!
My friend, I'll bet that soup ROCKED!! Looks delicious!!!
It did. Good stuff and I'm not really a soup guy.
Looks amazing!!!!
Tasted amazing. Thanks for watching.

Cheers from Canada love your videos :-)
Feels like I'm watching tv but it TH-cam... you deserve a show
Really love your videos. Reminds me of when I was 5, me and my dad would fish. I'm only 16 but brings back great memories. Keep your up the great work friend.
Best fishing videos on TH-cam. I SUBSCRIBED!!!
Looks amazing
Thanks. It was.
i did a soup inspired on your recipe but instead of snapper i used snook... and used those spider crab-like crabs from here... it was the best soup i ever tried. im going to do soup more often. Thanks for being such a good inspiration for both fishing and cooking!
Good deal. I am not much of a soup guy, but when you pack it full of seafood, it is pretty good.
Looks delicious
wow Blown Away... I watch a lot of catch and cook videos but you took this to a whole new level... that soup looks absolutely amazing Michelin chef quality..great video!
Appreciate it. I'm not a soup guy, but when it is filled with substance, it is pretty darn good.
Key West Kayak Fishing exactly..Seafood soup is a super charge..And a good hangover cure.LOL
Damn, you a chef. I'm hungry. Thanks.
Appreciate it quercus. That is how I know it worked.
Nice catch n cook!
I had to subscribe, had me drooling again! I'm a cook, & this looks like something I would make. Look really delish!
Great video as always, made me hungry lol
That's how I know it was a good video. LOL.
Top chef and a master angler. Hard to find such a great multitalnte guy like you these days.
Thumps up.
LOL. Thanks. It's one of those things that are fun to do and you get to eat it.
Nice video, keep them coming.

Nice ending to a good outing. Made me wanna eat seafood.
Dang man that looks good!
I'm not a soup guy, but it was.
God damn that's art.
Holy cow that looks delicious.
Much better than a holy cow steak.
Key West Kayak Fishing the addition of cooking the fish is awesome. What an awesome channel
Now that was interesting. That spider crab did it for me. Lol
What happens when you run the Cutter aground on a deserted island. Spider Crabs for breakfast lunch and dinner.
Another episode of the "Paddling Gourmet". Nice job Steve
Thanks Bass Star. They are fun (fishing), interesting to do, and I get to eat the results. They are popular as well so definitely keeping them in the rotation.
Awesome content. Love the catch and cook videos. Happy fishing regards from a very jealous maryland fishermen
Appreciate it Scrubs. Yea, that cold weather fishing can be rough. I don't take it for granted. Except for the wind.
YO the Man! Great video, even better cook!!! I am looking to purchase some property on Big Pine soon. Maybe see ya!
Smith
Just subbed after watching you cook and eat that horseshoe crab! Love it!
This looks criggin delicious
I'm watching shark documentaries one day, and now I'm watching this guy catch and cook his own food. Needless to say- I'm headed on a fishing trip with my buddies now.
Can't wait to try this. Oh I felt like I was there. I love me some gumbo!
Set a place for me at the table please! Those crabs are so lethargic, I remember brook and I caught one that was sitting on top of someones bait pen and we thought it was dead.
Yea, it didn't put up much of a fight. Not a lot of meat in there but really sweet meat. Definitely not passing them up anymore.
That spider crab was like trying to extract meat from a thorn bush...forget that. Lol
Yea, the pain versus benefit was kinda low. But we were scavenging so gotta go with what you got.
Oh lawd that crab... Who would have ever guess that something so damn creepy looking would taste so good?
Plus plenty of them around as people don't take them. Definitely worth it.
Oh that crab was the kicker nice!!!
Yea, it definitely put it over the top. Mussels or clams would have worked but not many down here in the Keys. The crab was the perfect touch.
Wow!!! Save me some of that soup!!!!!!!
Nice,,,,,He just jumped up into the boat with the reel. Yummy.
Delicious soup sir! Nice video
Yes sir it was. And I am not much of a soup guy. Very hearty and heavy on the meat.
looks good!
Thanks Flips. It turned out great and I am not even a soup guy.
this is the first video I've watched of yours , and you took catch and cook videos to a whole new level.. and I like all your comments and replies I'm definitely subscribing
Welcome to the channel. Catch and cooks have been very popular so I try to intermix one per week.
this just made me hungry!
I got some new ones coming. Hard to beat that Spider Crab though.
I love your your videos and have learned so so much from you. Now let me pass on a tip. I'm from MD and grew up eating crabs. Boil, simmer, or steam the crab whole with what ever your making. Or you could even cleaver it in half. But what ever you do, dont get rid of the guts. Cook, clean out the gills/face and the fat will turn a bright yellow. It's like the ultimate dipping sauce for the meat. Man ol man. Also during disassembling the crab, pull the apron off. This gives you a gap in the back of the shell that you can get you thumb in easy. Then lift the shell off like your opening the trunk of a car. One last tip, after the shell is cooked and taken off the crab, take a butter knife or something and check inside the shell in those points (what you measure for keepers). Its the same taste and consistency of lobster claw point meat. Super easy. Tight lines!
Crab gills a great bait also. Catch perch all day with them.
You did it again Steve! I'll be over for dinner next time!
Bring a spoon.
"God ugly stick, your reels suck" Couldn't stop laughing
Looks great a must do for my self but going to have to use different fish n crab since we don’t have either Of the species out here thanks for sharing
very nice!!!!!
Thanks vincent. It hit the spot.
great content keep it up
New subscriber here Steve. Great video! I catch a lot of spider crabs here up north stealing my bait, but never knew you can eat them. Now I know. I will definately try your recipe. Thanks!
Welcome to the channel. I gotta believe a crab is a crab. Some good stuff.
You know how to cook brother 🤘🏼🤘🏼👍
Appreciate it jay.
wow does that look good. it would be neat to see something similar with some bluefin tuna maybe even cut up some sushi out of it. good video I like these catch and cook videos
I will do some other Tuna videos. Just need to catch one. LOL. I get them often enough so probably soon.
Wowww awesome video!!! It's been a while I've had fish soup specially fresh out the ocean!!! This made my mouth water!!! Just missing a little bit of salt and pepper for my taste ha...Unless I got hipnotice and missed it!! Love all your videos!! Watch them every day, can't wait till the day I move to Florida!!! One day, one day!!
I put a bit of pepper but didn't need much salt. I always like to add at the end to taste. You can add it but you can't take it out.
Key West Kayak Fishing that is very true!!
Dudeee, nice man....
Thanks. It came out awesome.
niceee video!!
Thanks Sergio. It was just as good tasting.
Your content quality has ( improved ) so much
keep it up!
Thanks 5aled. Will do.
I got a DSLR camera so that has helped with these type of videos.
damn that looks good
What an awesome vid
Thanks Jacob. It was fun to make....and eat.
It's great because it shows fishing is worth it in the long run
looks good
It came out great. Even for the non soup people.
Fantastic dish- well done! Reminds me of cioppino, and it's one of my favorite. You are the second person i know that eats spider crab, he said the meat is really sweet. I'm gonna give it a try.
Pretty much a thrown together Cioppino. Very sweet meat. Just not a lot of it. I wouldn't throw one back.
Ran across your channel. I'm living vicariously through your channel.
Lived in the center of the state back in the early 90's.. If it weren't for the lack of quality jobs? I'd still be there..
Keep up the great content.
Thanks Steve. A lot of people use my videos as a bridge until they can make it back.
Please can someone just explain to me how the crab was still moving when it has been split in half?
I'm not a soup guy in any way shape or form but I have to say this looks amazing
Me too. This one was low on liquids and high on meat so very acceptable soup.
what kind of crab do you prefer for a soup?? because here in my country i only see soups with blue crab, none with spider crab or similar, some people said to me that they werent good to eat
I think most people are afraid of them because of their appearance. We have Stone Crab (claws), Blue Crabs, and the Spiny Lobster as our base crustaceans.
Magic man
Was the crab still alive when you splitted it? Trying to figure out what to do at that part when it comes to cooking.
