INVASIVE vs NATIVE Fish...Catch Clean Cook (Clown Knife Fish, Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.พ. 2025
- Fun day fishing lake ida with my buddy Johnny and Yames. Johnny is a licensed charter captain who specializes in freshwater species in South Florida such as Largemouth Bass, Peacock Bass, Clown Knife fish, Sunshine bass, and others. We used live shad to catch all our fish and kept a largemouth peacock bass and clown knife fish for dinner. Clown knife fish are often regarded as trash fish, but they are delicious if prepared properly. The traditional way to eat them is to scrape the meat off the fillet and use it to make dumplings, fish cakes or fish balls. We made them into hush puppies.

hmmmmm 😅🤔🤔🤔
Scar face casino good fellas

Peacocks were introduced by the FWC in Miami's canals to help clean out the other cichlids. Peacocks are not bass, but the largest of the cichlid family.
Clown knife fish are considered an invasive species and if bow hunters can go in there and shoot over 100, invasive is the proper term. Technically it is illegal to throw an invasive fish back, you don't throw snake heads back, but throw back a clown, keep them both.
Snakeheads are Kill on sight
And a largemouth bass is a sunfish
I love the trips you have shown with Johnny , he now has 1 more subscriber
Grew up in Texas fw fishing. I’ve fed my family, mom/dad and four sibs on lm bass, crappie, bream and catfish. Bass are delicious. Great job all.
Bow fisher here. If the clowns are invasive and DNR wants them gone, we should clean house on them. Even if people love the fish. IMHO you should never release invasive species.
100% 😂
Ay what’s up fellow bow fisher, I’d be down 😂.
As a bow fisherman I agree to a certain degree, a lot of these invasive fish also don’t do as much damage as they seem, if these guys’ lively hood depends on a certain species regardless if it’s invasive it not, I say let so it responsibly like he said, I’m sure there’s a middle ground as far as harvesting them and leaving plenty for the guides
@@samaoutdoors_ there should be no mercy for invasive species
You always amaze us with your Talents in fishing and cooking. You are truly a renaissance man. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I love ur videos they inspire to do catch and cooks 👌🏼
Hello, my friend, a fisherman. Thanks for explaining how to fish. I made you catch a lot🎣🎣🎣🎣🦈🦈🦈
Whoomp there it is, Whoomp there it is! James is in da house kill’n it as usual! I think James needs to be the head chef At Land Sharks.....I see the wheels turning and I’ve been saying Vic needs to get some investors and get that going 💪💪💪💪 I know there are some people that know people that watch this channel that can get that off the ground. I don’t know your sauce recipe bur I have an amazing Remoulade sauce I make for my oysters....would love to see you make some and use in a future video, it’s straight from Commander’s Palace in New Awlins.
As soon as I hear oysters im in. Id love to be involved in a restaurant, but not at this stage in life. Thats a second marriage and there's no way to juggle a restaurant and TH-cam.
I know I am late to the scene in posting a comment but I am about to move to Florida. After watching first 90 percent of this video I was going to charter the capt you fished with. As soon as he said you can only catch and release with him, sorry but never going to call him. If I am a paying customer that should be my decision! Thank you for the video, it was great as always .
Great video. I enjoyed watching ya having so much fun!
Ok, stop guessing what fish you got on haha 😂
Good to see all you guys together again from London here
what would we do without the ole yames myster
Those sunglasses😎. Good to see you guys happy and making good team👍
Yames is an insanely good chef 👍 love seeing his recipes
Great video your hush puppy dough suggestion …. Before you get a scoop of dough dip you spoon in a cup of water then get a spoon full of dough and it will drop into hot grease with no grease popping sounds crazy but it works
Nice video. James look like an amzing cook I like what did with all the fish. it's too bad Johnny is only a C&R guy. Would have liked the opportunity to catch a Clown Knife and eat it!
I used to have knife fish in my fish tanks. Crazy. Now I watch videos on TH-cam. Reel outdoorsy is my favorite right now
Forrest Gump or The Green Mile is my two favorites. They touch every emotion you could possibly have. Another great video Vic
The green mile is my second favorite. Simon birch is another great one
Jurassic park 3 is my favourite movie and I love pokemon detective pikachu
Wow! The peacock bass are beautiful fish, how cool is that?!!
I’m just impressed that there’s next to no jet skiers out there. They’re usually tearing ida up
Whats the spot??
Thank you Brooke for not relocating or killing the raccoon. There is construction everywhere. Habitat is being destroyed and there are so many that end up being road kill. I used to relocate the ones around me but didn't want to break up a family like you mentioned.
Last I heard, it's Florida law that if you catch a Raccoon must kill it. You are not allowed to release it. If you catch a possum you are NOT allowed to release it on anyone else property without signed consent and never are you allowed to release them on public land. It is recommended that you kill them too. We are in no danger of running out of rabies carriers so ammo up and bust a cap in 'em. On the other hand, many people leave them in the trap and drop the trap in the water to drown them.
Always a pleasure to watch this channel I can’t lie I be waiting for the next video lol
3:47 that was a cool idea 🤗🙂🤗
I thought Forest Gump was pretty good the first time I saw it. The second time I saw it, it hit me on another level....I LOVE the movie now. Definitely one of my favorites!
Brook is a phenomenal camera person... and yes I do know she's not the one filming now LOL....
Love the vids kids.
Love that Lake Ida Slam Vic!!!!
I absolutely LOVE this channel but the only thing I can’t stand and admittedly click off of some of the videos for, is you not lipping fish. Bass are perfectly fine to lip. I don’t know why you would hold em’ by the gill plate.
"Peacock bass, very peacock bass esque head shakes it's a peacock "
...
It's a clown
- vic
Lmao
Peacock sequence....Vick’s been hanging with the Movin Weight boys.
Just sayin, if it's an evasive fish, they should all be eliminated, we don't care that the guide makes a living on clown knives.... make a living on LMBs.... or othet native species! Love your channel.....
Why waste time on large mouth? Crappie or something other than bass 😂. Top water is acceptable tho
@@outdoorswithkaden1414 huh
@@clmwrx no bass fishing!
@@outdoorswithkaden1414 ok?
@@clmwrx ok
It always amazes me that people are so surprised that large mouth bass are delicious.
They are not anything close to good
@@1Ybndcg I personally think they taste great...but ultimately that boils down to your opinion. A lot of people do find largies delicious though
@@1Ybndcg I've had them vary widely from lake to lake. Always skin the fillets.
@@1Ybndcg you must be cooking them wrong....
Thats cap they taste like shit
Bass are so good Vic! Who fucking cares what everyone says, who cares if they don’t like that you harvested the bass! I respect you Vic!
Technically all three species are considered invasive species at one point in time. Great video! I always say the more game fish the better! Especially if they taste good!
North East as well, you were right. They are incredible fighters and get to a good size in PA so I'm sure it's the same everywhere.
Always a bangers! James is the man!
That Looks Amazing 👏👊👍
His clown knife petition is so close everybody go sign it no cost to you!
Great idea (rolling eyes) What's next, a Protect the Python Petition?
Why not, doesn’t hurt ya?
Kill every invasive you can. Some people are clueless.
I have 0 largemouth near me because of invasives
Beautiful day awesome fish good friends life’s good God bless
Love the hush puppy idea with the clown. I wonder how it would work with ladyfish, they have a similar bone structure.
Nice fish, and as always the food looks delicious
Pickling and pressure cooking fish with tiny bones is a way to soften them up so you can eat them. I would love to see you try some of those types of things with bony fish.
It Is Because I Found Y'all's TH-cam Channel that I now plan on taking my Father in-law and my 2 son's on Fishing Trip. If we come to South Florida, I'll be sure and book with you guys. MrScott54, BionicBlasters.
I love peacock bass, I gut them scale them gill them season and fry the hole fish head on. I'm a salt water captain and this is one of my favorite fish, better than Yellowtail and most snappers.
Ida is my favorite lake
I watch your video every time I love it wish we can do it together sometimes am from Jamaica I love fishing
The captain not only holds bass by the gills but lectures everyone to sign a petition to protect an invasive species from Asia? 🤡
If you look closely his finger is on the inside of the actual gill plate not the gills themselves
There's not a one good Pond around my area no more it all got over ran with Tilapia and armored catfish and sucker catfish I mean nothing it's a shame
My grandparents live on lake ida 😁
Great video Viktor!!
I am more of a saltwater fisherman here in Florida so it would be cool to catch those fish!!!
Life is Good 🐟🐟😋
Opa sou um brasileiro fã do canal
wow perfect fishing.... God Bless...
Loved the frying video honestly
Clown knife?! So cool
That looks so delicious.
Nice! There’s actually clown knife in Miami bro! Not a lot of people know the spot
Hey Vic, love the content. I appreciate all you guys do. I have a request. I would like to see what you use and how you sharpen your knives.
Work sharp ken onion
🤔 I don't understand.
I am watching from Kalam Valley...
Walk Hard. Dewey Cox Story, with John C. Reilly. Funniest movie ever!!!
Very beautiful fish
Mixed opinions , are Peacock bass good to eat ? If good why no keepers yet 4:18 into the Vid . Myself I fish to eat .
I love how y'all give each shit keep it coming bro love the videos
I love to eat bass.. largemouth, small mouth, striped...I harvest a few every year. Not many but when I feel like it I harvest a few.
If he thinks bass is white meat wait till he finds walleye lol
Let's do it👊
I love bass as a Beer Batter on white bread, lettuce
Good job👍
@Erdoğan Yılmazçetin Hayırlı ramazanlar çok teşekkürler👍
Thanks for the video I really enjoy it you always bring fun to the videos I was going to call Johnny until he said that everything we fish we have to release to I don’t go fish to release unless It’s no The right size by law but thanks for the video really good food
Fish and release can do damage to the fish. A high number die from being hooked.
What happened to the tomatoes, are they still on the grill?
Your guide buddy is more interested in his paycheck than the native species!
Forest Gump is my all time favorite too.
i seen someone for reel deep gut hooks on bigger fish, cut the line at the eye of the hook and just run the hook through. the eye will still do some damage im sure, but much less than a barbbed hook coming out.
Joining you from Virginia Beach ⛱
I wanna meet yall! And come fishing with yall! I'm trying to plan a little family vacation in Florida mid April this year.
Trying to bring my fiance and 2 year old son on vacation. It'll also be a birthday celebration for myself and my fiance.
I hope your boy is not petitioning to put some type of limit on a invasive species, in fact he should not be releasing any if its not native then it needs to go. I can only imagine what it has done to the large mouth population on that lake. And yes i know peacock bass are not native and I feel the same about them also. Good video by the way
Yo i have the answer to your racoon problem. They use your pool to wash their grubs and food they also wash themselves after they eat. They are actually really cool creatures and if you want the solution to your problem and by the way its funny and does no harm to the racoon. I enjoy you guys a lot and the least i can do is help you guys and that awesome racoon.
Can i email you the solution? i dont want to share it with others.
Maybe you guys have not seen this message!!! Or maybe you guys like swimming in racoon urine.
Here in Panama we got a lot of peacok bass.
3:33 for anyone who wants to learn how to get a gut hook out.
movin weights
I have eaten largemouth bass since I was a kid. It's just a fish. People freak out when you harvest one, like some do with permit.
Same here. Largest I ever caught was 11# 3 oz. But those little 3 to 4 pound males are about the best eating fresh water fish there is.
My best was 11 2. Using a broke back blue and silver rapala. The lure got stuck on a log next to her bed and was twitching the lure to get it off and it pissed her off and she nailed it. I let her go because she was oozing eggs . Beautiful fish .
Your right, work with what you got!
3:44 Ima use that for all the gut hook fish i accidentally hook from now on
Been spending too much time with Adam lol... very moving weightesque
Me Bubba go way back👍🤣
There's four kinds of bass down here you have the stripe bass the hybrid stripe Bass smallmouth bass and largemouth bass
Largemouth Bass make great fish and chips.
Largemouth looking nice
Come to Surinam in South America, lot of peacock....
The clown knife fish is native to indochina but it's known to be fish in parts of florida I might be wrong but I read it some wear brother . Also I think its native to bangladesh India pakistan etc to . I might be wrong . Excellent video brother good fishing 🎣🎣👍.
The Clown Knife fish, is native to SE Asia, like Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia. It is tropical and doesn't spread too far north.
@@MountainFisher that's true to brother
Did I correctly hear Johnny say he only does catch and release fishing only while he was seated at the dinner table.
He has a new subscriber thanks to victor here lol
Love this channel and have for years... let’s see something different you haven’t done yet?
Are you allowed to release non-native fish after catching them? I dont really know the rule, but most people just release them so they can have something fun to catch in the future.
Save yourself some time on your “Cajun” seasoning… get Tony’s and add garlic powder to taste…. I’m literally watching this on generator power so yeah in southeast Louisiana.
I wanted to subscribe to johnny.but unfortunately I love the catch clean cooks bro.
There is a lot of agricultural run off in all lakes and canals in south florida. I would still eat the fish but maybe not every day.
I'm from Southwest Florida and I've never seen a peacock bass or a clown knife fish there
Should get chef James on flim fileting a fish
less go
The food looked good but coming from a Cajun, that was NOT Cajun! Zatarain’s is a New Orleans (Creole) company! Great video nonetheless! 👍🏽
