- A little Summer fun at the creek. The Bluegill were hungry and so was I. In this video I show how the Bluegill go from the creek to my fork (or more accurately, my Spork). I catch and filet 4 bluegill and fry them up with some cornmeal and vegetable oil.
Camera: Canon SL2
Lenses: Canon 18-55mm and Canon 24mm
Stove: MSR Pocket Rocket
Skillet: Snow Peak Titanium
Spork: Snow Peak Titanium
Brings back memories in Gordon, Wisconsin summers in the 1960’s and southern Illinois lakes in the 1980’s - 2000’s. Best time of my life. Bluegills and crappie soaked in some beer and thrown in a bag of Ritz cracker crumbs……mmmmm.
Heck yeah, that sounds pretty good. Crappie is my favorite but I’m definitely not gonna turn down bluegills. Glad I could bring up some good memories for you. Thanks for watching!
.Wow my friend, I have camped in many places, on the seashore, in the mountains, in the desert, etc. and the feeling of peace is indescribable. It makes you very hungry and you eat everything with great pleasure. Wow, wow, wow, excellent video my friend. Speechless.
Hey Coyote, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Not sure what I enjoy more, catching fish or eating fish, haha! Thanks for watching, I appreciate hearing from you!
That was fun, Dale! glad to see you out.
Holy Cow, how have you been Ben?! My jaw kinda hit the floor when I saw the Tribe of Benjamin left a comment notification. It’s been forever since I’ve heard from you. I sure hope life has been good on your end. As you’ve seen from this video, I still get out in the woods from time to time. I had surgery on my knee last year and that has slowed me down a lot more than I like to admit. It’s gotten better but now this Texas Summer heat has pretty much got me hibernating indoors these days. Oh well, Fall has got to get here eventually, and when it does, I’ll be back out there. You can’t keep the “white Indian” down, haha! Man, it was super awesome hearing from you! Take care buddy!!
Excellent production. 🤠👍
Wow, I don’t get too many comments on my production, which is kind of a bummer. I do spend quite a bit of time editing and piecing everything together trying to make a cohesive story, so thanks for noticing! I appreciate that. Take care!
That’s a hell of a lot of work for a snack lol 🎣👀🍿😎🤣 great vid 🔥
Haha, yeah those bluegills are like popcorn compared to the big crappie I’m used to catching, thanks for watching!
Oh man the fried blue gills looks delicious!!!!
I will admit that they were in fact delicious, haha! Catching and frying up bluegills right out of the creek…it don’t get much better than that! Thanks for stopping by, it’s always good hearing from you.
Man great video theses are my favorite videos because there is no one talking and you can just enjoy the video
I hear ya, they are my favorite type of videos too. It kind of works out for me since I don’t like the sound of my own voice, even the videos I do talk in, I only talk at the bare minimum. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
@On the Trail with Dale lol I hear you, man. Thanks for making good content. I appreciate it.
It’s good to see some bluegill fillets, most people eat them whole which is good too, but there was something special about this meal
Crappie is the main fish I catch and eat, but bluegills are a pretty close second. Thanks for watching!!
Bluegill are my favorite fish to fish for. Great video.
Looks like it's been around 3 years since you made a fishing video. I hope you catch the video bug again. I enjoy your outings.
All the best, John.
Crappie is my go to fish but bluegill is definitely a close a second. They are both fun to catch and eat. Yeah, my video output isn’t what it used to be. Some of it is lack of content inspiration, and some of it is because I had minor surgery on my knee last year. That surgery has slowed me down a lot more than I thought it would. All and all I’m doing better now but we’ll see what the Texas heat allows me to do. Thanks for watching!
@@OntheTrailwithDale brother, I understand.
I got a new left knee almost 5 years ago. Thinks haven't been the same. Catch 22, the more I move the worse I hurt. The less I move, the more weight I gain, the more I gain, the worse it hurts...
Looked good my friend! Nice work!
Hey Todd, those Ol bluegills looked pretty good, huh? Yeah, I’m not sure what I like more: catching them or eating them…glad you stopped by bud, always good hearing from you!
Nice video 😊👍
Thanks, I appreciate you watching!
Such a relaxing video. Loved it!
Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate you watching!!
god I love fishing for panfish in the hill country creeks.
You said it man! Crappie is my passion but it’s hard to pass up on bluegills. The perfect time for catching them is just around the corner too. I might have to grab my pole and camera and make another video…
@@OntheTrailwithDale oh yeah, I hit some parks in cibolo or the guad between NB and Mcqueeny. Lots of fat bluegils. Crappie are the best eating but bluegill do almost as good.
You know what would be cool, going mountain man style and using a cane pole to catch them and camping with fresh caught bluegill cooking on the fire
Yep, doing anything mountain man style would be cool, haha! Thanks for watching!!
Just subbed
Welcome aboard! I appreciate it
Makes me hungry and I just ate a Ribeye.:>) I love fried fish but unfortunately the corn meal breading which is my favorite no longer works for my pre-diabetic situation.I've tried eating them different ways but nothing I've found beats the corn meal bath.
Ribeye…well, now you made me hungry, haha! Man Laner, that’s a real bummer about the cornmeal. Hope the day never comes when I have to give it up. Those bluegill are too much fun to catch and eat. At least Ribeyes are still on the menu. Thanks for stopping by buddy. It’s always good hearing from you!
@@OntheTrailwithDale I wish you the best .Long live the corn meal eaters, and the doughnut eaters and pie and pastry eaters, crackers, bread, corn, potatoes, all sugar both natural and added, flour, ice cream, beans, pasta, rice, and anything with carbs which ultimately turns to sugar. Glad I can have meat, butter, bacon and eggs, a little veg and a little nuts with my water.:>) Don't get me wrong,I had a fun time getting to where I am.:>)
@@FlintSpall the struggle is real, I will stay strong my brother!! 😃
deep-fry the whole fish it's more beautiful let you know and help you eat the whole fish survival 101 don't waste good part of and animal that give you life to survive
Luckily for me, I wasn’t having to survive that day. Just having some fun by the creek. Thanks for watching!
