My grandparents had a place off Dunns creek and it was so great seeing you explore the waters I grew up fishing and boating on!

I would salvage items from an abandoned boat with a clear conscience. Thanks for sharing.

New phone looks good, we call them Bluegills in Georgia. They are in the Sunfish family and the smaller specimens of sunfish are generically called bream around here. Fun to catch and great to eat. Hey to Wavey, thanks for the video, keep em coming.

I would have grabbed the cast net off the swamped boat if it was not tore up. A cast net is a good tool for catching bait. Looks like a lot of fun. If there's crabs there then there is probably red fish, flounder and speckled trout. Red fish are very easy to catch as long as you have some tide moving. A dead shrimp or a half crab near the shoreline. Speckled trout don't bite on dead shrimp as much. Live shrimp with a slow retrieve or under a float or plastic baits with a fairly fast retrieve in some fairly clear water. I bet there's some big garfish there. One of those brim a foot or two under a float with some good strong line, a good pole and a large net to boat them with. Cleaning garfish is a little tricky the first few times. Good luck. Thumbs up

One day someone will have to pick the boat up to clean the river up....let them get the spoils

That first fish looks like a shellcracker

Love seeing that area Florida on the water. I grew up fishing those Waters as my grandfather had a retirement home in hermit's Cove in Satsuma.

@@backwatersandbackroads we drove through that area today... We had some business back home in NE OHIO but made it back to our current winter stop in Vero Beach.. Soon to hook up the RV and hit Zephyrhills until the RV Supershow in Tampa.. Then onto Orlando then Kissimmee... After that who knows.. Love to travel and watch others do the same, such as you... Keep up the good work..!

Oh oh I wish I could be you. I wonder what the rich people are doing today? I could bet their not in shanty boat paradise. Love your videos.

Looking back I bet you wish you would have taken those fat bumpers to keep the house boats gutters safe... LOL

Have fun

camera looks good

Looks like the waters gone down sense the flood. It’s about time to get down there an catch some of them crappie.

Yes b'y! Some nice day to be fishing along that river! Interesting to see so many modern shipwrecks lying about, goes to show how much boating activity happens in that area. Excellent video quality from your new phone too. Loves it!

Pirates code... Take what you can, give nothing back! Arrrrrr. LOL!

Camera is awesome, bro.

Nice easygoing video. Relaxing. Good luck with your crab pot.

New camera works great. Good enjoyable video. Safe travels..

great way to start my Saturday! Thanks UPDATE...imho When salvaging off boat i would leave a small nominal amount of $ in envelope with kind note. At the end of the day, you didn't technically steal (who knows)and you may of helped some poor soul needing some money. Amount you leave is up to you. Leave a message in a bottle kinda thang.

Nothing beats a nice day of fishing! The new phone looks good I suppose? You should salvage what you can. If the boats are basically abandoned does it really matter? Not sure how that salvage laws work with boats like that. Anyway this was a great video. I do wish they were longer! 😉🤣

Great video, vid quality was excellent! My nomad now undergoing 2nd Refit, 12 months since you dleivered it. Can't wait for spring! Love to Wavey!

I've used bluegill for cut bait to catch cats. Legal if you catch them yourself. Nice times! Caught a few small mouth further south on the St Johns near Sanford - back in the 80's. :D Been a rough month but getting there, by gawd. LOL!

Video looks good In the UP everyone called them brim Down in Florida we call them sunfish

If the boat has been abandoned then I don't think you would get in trouble take what you want just make sure it's abandoned

So it's hot there, well not here my friend. Tom

Bone-picking derelicts can be a transfer of bad karma. Another thing to consider, everything you take of value makes the boat less rescuable. Finally, that you had to ask the question means that it is within the realm of wrong. Don't burden your soul is a good rule.

Hi Brenton, I think the new phone is better quality video than the old one.... I myself would not any problem morally taking parts off that swamped wrecked boat. I'd love to have that steering wheel for my boat.... What you needed to notice was the doors going into the wrecked boat, isn't that what you need for your shanty boat?, If not that should give you a new idea how you may want to make new doors. Love the videos.

I was thinking the same thing about the doors! ;)

Its working

Personally, I think someone should go into business salvaging those modern shipwrecks..I'm not sure how someone would go about that..but that's my opinion. Also, I'm convinced as we get more age under our belts, we become more in tune to the changes between the seasons

Like to pull the motor.

I never heard of any laws against picking off old ,known abandoned boats .

I have a suggestion as to what to do with the nimble long term and here it is. Hug um kiss um and call it George. That is ine great boat for your needs.

Bream is a hybrid it is half bluegill and half sunfish

Nice new camera. How was the crabbing? It is possible to salvage parts from abandoned boats in Florida, but you should be aware that there are specific laws and regulations that govern the salvage of abandoned boats in the state. In general, it is illegal to salvage or remove parts from a boat without the permission of the owner or the person who is responsible for the boat. If you wish to salvage parts from an abandoned boat in Florida, you should contact the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to obtain permission and ensure that you are following the proper legal procedures. The FWC can provide you with information on the specific laws and regulations that apply to boat salvage in Florida, and they can help you obtain the necessary permits and approvals.

My take on you taking something off an abandoned boat is to ask yourself how you would feel if the item you're taking belonged to you and you found it missing? Say hi to Wavey and be careful Brenton and of course Wavey.

It’s ashamed they don’t remove these vessels from the rivers. I wouldn’t take anything off the boats. Just me. If they’re abandoned, which it looks like they are, I done see anything wrong but I just won’t take anything off them.

unfortunately there are no vessel salvage rights in FL, legally it seems you cant touch a wrecked or abandoned boat regardless of how long its been there. for years ive seen perfectly good sail boats go to waste in the ICW. only way to touch it is to go through FWC and try and get the title for it. a costly and time consuming process.

Florida has alligators. They love dogs. In fact you can call a gator by whining like your doggie is doing. Please watch your dog close. Not a good idea to have him on the water in that canoe. Just a hint. Have fun.

@@backwatersandbackroads Alligators Although most Floridians have learned to live with alligators, the potential for conflict exists. It is rare that an alligator attacks a human but a few precautions should be observed. Don’t feed or harass alligators. Not only is this act illegal, but over a period of time, the alligator will lose its fear of humans and become dependant on us as their food source. Never approach an alligator closely. They are quite agile on land. Don’t swim outside of posted swimming areas, especially in the areas that large gators live. Be sure to check the area for large gators prior to swimming. Don’t swim after dusk/dark. This is the time most alligators actively feed. Avoid thick vegetation areas as this is the area a gator is most likely to call home! Don’t dump fish scraps into the water or on the shoreline. This will attract gators. Don’t allow your dog to swim in areas that are known to harbor large gators. Be aware of your surroundings and use common sense. If you encounter a nuisance alligator please contact the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission at (352) 732-1225
