Florida Fishing Couple

Keys Locals helping fishing lovers & outdoor enthusiasts learn how to fish & explore the FL Keys!

Capt Dan - originally from New York and wife Elizabeth: from Illinois moved from the west coast of FL to Key Largo, Florida April 2017 (just in time for hurricane Irma) to pursue our dream of fishing and diving the Florida Keys. We found out there is a LOT to learn about tackle, species, regulations, weather, and location in the Keys. We hope you will come along with us on our adventure as we explore the beautiful and sometimes treacherous Florida Keys.

    Yeah, I know old timers like you need all the help they can get when fishing in deep water. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 You know my mother use to give me crew cut's like that back in the 60's and early 70's... Yeah the old man was a jarhead, I hated that crap 😂 Where's the wife? I wanted to see her out fish you again... Good video old timer, hurry up with the next one 👍🙌🤣🤣🤣🤣 Stay afloat!

    Seems pretty routine to me. Once they determined you weren't in compliance with the required safety equipment for your vessel, you should expect a thorough boat inspection and should be thankful for just a warning. You also seemed a bit annoyed by the fire suppression / flag thing which won't sit well with the FWC crew. Know the requirements next time and maybe be a bit more formal with your interactions and things will go faster. These guys are looking for additional violations once they have reason to believe they may exist.

    I too am retired military and respect our law enforcement and abide by the law. I understand checking the catch, safe equipment, registration and licenses but the full court press to look in every compartment just a little bit over the top and definitely goes into invasion of privacy category for me

The Piscifun Kraken is an affordable way to deep drop fish without spending thousands on an electric reel. 👍👍 Hope you enjoyed the video. The full video will be posted next week. Stay tuned! 👍

    I think it's fair to say the entire stop was justified. With that said, I was surprised you didn't end up in handcuffs. I've watched a lot of videos chronicling FWC encounters and believe they are more of a revenue producing entity than safety and fish & wildlife enforcement. I don't say that lightly; I am almost always pro-LEO. The FWC arrests sober people for BUI regularly and allows the legal system to sort it out. It really is too bad the organization as a whole is ok with ruining the live of law abiding citizens. And yes, I do understand they get dangerous people off of the water too. That is expected. But, you need to be pretty damn sure when you make an arrest. This guy posts some pretty good FWC vids - www.youtube.com/@DonnyRapture/videos

  • @FloridaFishingCouple
    @FloridaFishingCoupleКүн бұрын

    Well I hope you are wrong about them arresting people who really aren’t BUI just to harass the public and put them through the system. Those are the ones that abuse their power and cause the public to demand police reforms and defunding of LEO. That is not what we want. We want fair policing and those that are clearly breaking the law punished in accordance with the law making the public safer. What we don’t want is arbitrary stop, search, and seizures without true probable cause. Stopping someone for a “Safety Check” is BS. You would not tolerate a stop and search of your vehicle for a safety check; so why should that be acceptable when on your vessel?
