@@chadhansen1146 Nah dude. She's got an excellent take on food, consumption and respect for ingredients. Good food is beyond words, people who know it are the best. Seems like she does.
definitely my favorite episode of the series! Danielle is a badass cook and Frank is just a funny and goofy dude. Can't wait for season Das Boat: Season Tree
This and all the other productions by this crew aren't just guys out flogging the water or flinging arrows or bullets. Steve and chosen cast always brings a thinking mans perspective to the experience that I appreciate. When out adventuring myself and being with folks that are on that same page. I find those experiences the most fulfilling. It fills that void created by the visual of that 30 lb propane tank full of bullet holes surrounded by empty beer cans we passed earlier. And the imagery that creates. Im grateful for the existence of this content.
As a resident of Louisiana, I can say that we have always known how delicious the drum (we call them goo) really is. We go out and catch these using live crawfish quite often. Our favorite is in a Creole style tomato gravy. Great video!!!
Freshwater drum are one of my favorite fish to eat. When I moved to Kansas to live with my wife on her family’s farm I got the bulk of our protein from fishing in the local creek. Our most memorable meal together was blackened drum and every time I came back from fishing, my wife would ask if I caught a drum. It became our favorite.
Das boat Canada edition! go across Canada! start in BC with sturgeon, then Alberta for mountain trout, Saskatchewan with the Konrad brothers, Manitoba with Aaron Weibe, Ontario with Jay siemens, and taro! or meateater in Montana for the next 39 hours
You can sight fish drum on the Great Lakes with carp/bonefish patterns as well as streamers as you would redfish. Super fun. Love this series highlighting “undesirable” species and repping the Midwest
Well I'm old enough to remember walleyes and bass being full of tumors in the great Lakes so I could ask you the same unless you believe that pollution stays at one level. No such thing as a bad fish or average tasting, just people that only fry fish and don't know how to be creative. The texture is different not necessary the taste.
I cannot put into words how much I love this series. You guys are crushing it. And 2 episodes in my home state to finish it off. Hope you enjoyed MN and her spoils.
I’m a huge fan of all the mugs in this year’s Das Boat series, but, I’ve got to say, these two absolutely crushed it. This has got to be the best episode of the season. I hope to see Danielle and Frank on more MeatEater content going forward. Seriously
Love what all you guys are doing.Content wise,entertainment quality,first and your most your obsession with bringing back a way of life that reingnites so many loved and cherished memories.Cheers cheers.
When I was a kid we would camp on islands in the Rock river and cook Sheepshead on green sticks over a camp fire. Raid a garden, grab a salt shaker, good to go for a couple of nights. Great vid. Thanks for all the hard work!
just make sure you put it right on ice don't try and keep them in the livewell. They usually don't last in the live well and they turn quick. Do what they did rip the gills out bleed it, and right on ice. Truthfully if your keeping fish to eat this is the best method to keep any fish for the best taste. I do this with cats, drum, stripers, gar really it helps any fish taste better.
@@joshuavanderschaaf5145 it really is pretty good, I learned the hard way one time while catfishing I caught a couple drum and decided I'd give them a go since I was going to be cleaning fish anyways. Well I just threw them in the live well with few channel cats I was keeping. Needless to say got home to clean them they were belly up. I cut into into them to fillet them smelled bad, not just typical fish smell while cleaning fish, but nasty smell. Never did that again. But if you ice them down quick they taste darn good I think.
Holy Moly! What a nice little fishing trip in Minnesota. And Holy Freaken Moly...What a fish buffet - Dannielle surely can put it together! Nice work. Great show!
My favorite episode yet. As a michigander i know the rep sheeps head get. The hosts were awesome and everything felt very real and unscripted. I love this series. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do another season of this!
"like if you had a shrimp that tasted like a walleye" That is the most perfect description I've heard of freshwater drum. It's one of my favorite MN fish to eat but I've had trouble describing the texture in a way that makes sense. She nailed it.
My biggest fish was a 25 pound drum caught on the Ouachita River. Had no idea what to do with it, so I gave it to a guy who said he cooks them. That fish was a heck of a fight. I thought I might have had a striper twice its size or something. I barely got it in with a beefy bass rod and 15 pound line. I caught it on a shad pattern lipless crankbait and ended up breaking a trebel hook in its jaw trying to get it out. Probably my second favorite fishing memory, after the time my dad hired a crappie guide for my 16th birthday. It is the only fish I recall having to actually fight with instead of just dragging it in. Had to fight against that behemoth as well as the current. I wish I could go back and do it again. Thank you for bringing back the memories. It's like finding your favorite childhood toy when you are 25 or 30 years old.
Excellent series, just not enough episodes. We had a 18' Starcraft, same nasty green, from '71 on, spent many a day exploring the Chesapeake and her rivers! Thanks for jump starting my memories! Need to gift the boat to a viewer on the condition THEY video document their adventures!
The reason that I watched this video is that I caught a fresh water drum the other day thought about keeping it but ended up throwing it back, now I wished that I would have kept it. Thanks so much for making this video.
GREAT episode. I personally love freshwater drum. I get them as bycatch when walleye trolling Lake Erie and the Detroit River. The two most important things that you have to do with this fish specifically, something that I think many anglers don't know, is bleed them and get them directly on ice. You guys did it perfectly. I sometimes take the fried fish and dip it in cocktail sauce and you basically get a Red Lobster style entree, lol.
I’ve caught a shit ton of those in Kansas rivers and lakes!! “Ivory” in their heads. 😁😁 used to have a handful or so of them as a kid. We ate them. They aren’t trash by far! Danielle you’re a beautiful soul!
We Love Freshwater DRUM!! Was to funny when Danielle compared to a shrimp... we often fix them that way, cooking with crab boil spices..even tinting the water with food coloring to give a shrimp like appearance. They are wonderful cooked many ways... the one thing one MUST DO, when keeping Drum... is to get them on ICE!!! Their flesh will go mushy extremely fast if not kept iced down. Glad you enjoyed an awesome eating fish that is not that hard to come by when one learns where to find them.
Can't speak for Minnesota but here in Kentucky the best bait to use for White Drum is live crawl-fish (Crayfish, Crawl Dads, etc.), and they are excellent eating if prepared properly. Grand father called them rock head carp, that's why many didn't eat the Drum.
This is one of my favorite videos of this series, appears that everyone had a good time. I caught and ate a lot of drum when I was growing up. I thought they were pretty tasty, not as good as crappie or bluegill, but close. Haven't had any in a long time and would love to catch some the next time I get a chance to fish Lake Erie.
I catch these in droves on the Ohio River in Cincinnati and on the Scioto River in Columbus where i now live. The are easy to catch from shore, big, great fighters and you can fill up a stringer in a couple of hours or even less. Here they are plentiful and can be caught easily by novices and kids as well as us "pros" lol. just a worm, hook, sinker on bottom.
I actually target these fish down here in Texas, especially in the spring. Super easy to pattern and an absolute blast on light tackle. I stumbled on a small 3" swimbait on eBay with an ice scent that slays them. Still haven't taken any home but I have caught my share!
Watched this then 2 days later caught a drum on Mississippi river in missouri and had to try it. After frying it in Andy's seasoning I highly recommend. Never knew what I was missing throwing them back all these years. I will def be keeping everyone I catch from here on out. This is why I watch Meateater.
You've peaked my curiosity on this one. My primary fishing spot is the Detroit River still with the pollution methods of cleaning up the river have been greatly successful I wouldn't eat a bottom filter feeder out of any body of water south of sarnia ontario canada but I may be more apt to try it out of an isolated northern lake or river. Have fun and enjoy everything outdoors.
I've been listening ro the podcast since he first started making it, I first started paying attention to steve when i found out his fish camp is right around the corner from where I live. It is super cool to see all the people and places he talks about on his podcast for myself.
I'm from South Louisiana, grew up catching them in hoop nets (targeting catfish). We always used them for crawfish bait or cut bait for turtles. As a kid I do remember eating a few freshwater drum. My dad and his buddies always called them gaspergoo (not sure on spelling).
As the worst walleye fisherman in Minnesota who catches more sheepies than anyone this was a fun episode. Southern Minnesota has tons and tons of the ol rockheads
My uncle used to target drum almost exclusively on the Mississippi River. He would put out two lines. One with a nightcrawler, one with a crawdad. Both on a heavy slip sinker rig. He said he caught more fish on the crawler, but the crawdad almost always got the big one.
Awesome episode, and I greatly hope there's a season 3! Gotta catch some drum now. There's a great article on the MeatEater website about the quality of freshwater drum. Great stuff!!
It sounds more comparable to black drum here on the gulf coast. The size sample in this video is the size black drum we keep here for eating we call them puppy drum , as they get pretty big when mature. Great video
Catching drum up here in Manitoba is quite easy during the summer months. Everyone regards them as trash fish as well, but the larger ones have been some of the best fights I have ever had. I catch them on everything from high low rigs to crankbaits.
In Louisiana and parts of Texas they're called Gasper goup. Having eaten them before, I'd definitely recommend it to other people. It's not red or black drum, but it's definitely not the worst.
FYI, I target and catch many drum up here in the great white north (Canada). Why do you ask? Thye are GREAT for smoking, birne in saltwater based brine for 12 hours and smoke low and slow for 6 - 8 hours. Everyone who tries my "smoked drum" and absolutely loves it. Give it a try, you may be surprized. Good fishing, Walter
You need to do more with Danielle Prewett. I like the way she thinks when it comes to cooking and eating.
Shut up you just think she's hot like everyone else
Go Sooners!
7:26 and OU still sucks
@@chadhansen1146 Nah dude. She's got an excellent take on food, consumption and respect for ingredients. Good food is beyond words, people who know it are the best. Seems like she does.
Is that what you appreciates about her?
“Have a great weekend!”
“It’s Tuesday.”

The amount of times I've said this is sad, it is also followed up with a mental facepalm

Not one that small

Best one liner ever!!!! :)

Can’t wait for season 3! Thank you to everyone who made this show happen. MeatEater and this are by far my favorite shows!
Josh has got to be a hockey player with that grin and flow!
He is, true bender! 😂 Josh is great dude I went to school with
He's from Northern Minnesota, yeah? Of course he plays hockey! (Says the Zamboni driver)
I'm legitimately upset this is the last episode of the season, and that I'll have to wait awhile for another
Yes I liked this season far better than the first.
More interesting fish, more northerly waters, more Steve sarcasm
this was honestly the best episode of the season
@@cameronbuttigieg9060 the Steve sarcasm was a great addition to this season 🤣
I thought you meant because it was the worst of the season
Not sure what I like more. Watching Steve playing QB, or Steve sitting in the stands roasting his friends haha.
Looking forward to Tres Boat. Come to the west coast!
Drei Boat?
@@FlyingBootable that's what I was thinking. Stick with the D theme.
Just watched the whole season and it took this comment for me to get why it was called ‘Dos Boat’ 🤦🏼♂️
Season 3, damn boat

@@JC-uq5gi It's like searing a steak, except instead of olive oil you use butter and butter has a lower smoke point so it looks like it's burnt.
I've heard there are a lot of them here in Texas. Might need to give it a try.
@@flowerfarmerscott Yeah, I caught bunch of them along the Trinity River
@ I'll look up how to do it. I've caught a few tiny ones while cat fishing.
@@flowerfarmerscott Yeah, I use cut bait and it works well, some people use the lure too. Good luck!
Das boat Canada edition! go across Canada! start in BC with sturgeon, then Alberta for mountain trout, Saskatchewan with the Konrad brothers, Manitoba with Aaron Weibe, Ontario with Jay siemens, and taro! or meateater in Montana for the next 39 hours
Only problem with Canada is that it takes a week to get across a province lol
That be a great show I was thinking of that as I read tour comments too funny
I absolutely love this show. It has encouraged me me explore the outdoors more and more with every episode.
Love the Das Boat Series, can't wait for the next season. Live on the Gulf Coast in Texas, love all the different fishing adventures. Keep it going.
Have Danielle on your shows more please, shes lovely :)
You can sight fish drum on the Great Lakes with carp/bonefish patterns as well as streamers as you would redfish. Super fun. Love this series highlighting “undesirable” species and repping the Midwest
12:30 legit thought dude wasn't wearing pants......lmfao
Went to see i anyone else thought the same thing lol
XD
Holly crap i missed that the first time. 🤣
Oh so true how funny. Maybe the fish will like his worm.
😂😂😂
I absolutely love this series. The snarky Rinella commentary cannot be beat! Please never stop doing these!!
I’m glad to see less loved species getting some coverage.
Wish you could find it anywhere south of Wisconsin...
Very good, have only eaten the ones I’ve caught which is disappointingly few
@@user-mz2ow4ky7v I catch them on Truman Lake in Missouri fairly often.
Thank you Steve Rinella. I am trying to get people to fish for the lowly freshwater drum aka sheepshead.
Hey I’ve had them ohh🤤 they are one of my favorite fresh water fish
Ehh. There are many more species out there and plenty better on the table.
do u eat the tumors?
Well I'm old enough to remember walleyes and bass being full of tumors in the great Lakes so I could ask you the same unless you believe that pollution stays at one level. No such thing as a bad fish or average tasting, just people that only fry fish and don't know how to be creative. The texture is different not necessary the taste.
Andrew yes they are just keep the same ones and cook in different ways like boiling, blackened, or grilled.
"I like the idea of fishing, but I'd truly rather just rig." Hahaha
#RinellaforPresident MeatEater Nation!
Yes
He has my vote. Callaghan for Vice President.
Hands down best fishing series ever. Thanks Steve and your hard working team kept them coming. 👍🏻👍🏻

Please make another season. I love the das boat series!! Thank you for making it.

People regularly leave seasonings in their garden in your neck of the woods?
@@Conda17 Not herbs or seasonings, cucs and tomatoes, ect. to compliment the fish.
Nightcrawlers catch everything! I'm gonna make my friends eat freshwater drum and not tell them what it is until it's too late

Caught these all the time in Long Point on the inner bay. Was always told they weee garbage fish. Next one is definitely going in my belly. Thanks.
I love the series. Can't wait for season 3.
Love the way Danielle handled being shown how to fillet a fish. I don’t think I’d be as patient
I never liked fishing or fishing shows, but somehow this method keeps my attention and is actually interesting
Another season of Das Boat comes to a close and Im left wanting more!!!
I can see people in the first episode driving up like "Look at this noob... dropping his boat!"
10 seconds later "Oh crap it's Steven Rinella!!"
Awesome episode, and I greatly hope there's a season 3! Gotta catch some drum now. There's a great article on the MeatEater website about the quality of freshwater drum. Great stuff!!

Burbot!
In Louisiana and parts of Texas they're called Gasper goup. Having eaten them before, I'd definitely recommend it to other people. It's not red or black drum, but it's definitely not the worst.
I love this series and you are a great narrator
Lived on Lake Erie, caught walleye and sheephead, loved them both.
This is a great series so glad I found it
FYI, I target and catch many drum up here in the great white north (Canada). Why do you ask? Thye are GREAT for smoking, birne in saltwater based brine for 12 hours and smoke low and slow for 6 - 8 hours. Everyone who tries my "smoked drum" and absolutely loves it. Give it a try, you may be surprized. Good fishing, Walter
We call em gaspergough here in south Texas. No limit and you can catch a bunch using cut bait. Love em!
Great episode. The painting came out really well!
I'm a new subscriber in Lyons Georgia and I love the videos ! And I love learning about different things doing to with fishing
