Scalloping in Florida is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. In this adventure I find myself camped on a uninhabited island in a popular scalloping are, St. Joeseph Bay. Just east of Mexico Beach Florida which was devastated by hurricane Micheal just weeks after I was here....

What would it take to get you to try a raw scallop????

@braydenhardy5188 5 лет назад

Not much

@braydenhardy5188 5 лет назад

I don't know though.

@braydenhardy5188 5 лет назад

I would have to try it

@blakehurst8695 5 лет назад

That sounds like something that might be tasty, after a six pack

@tnt421 5 лет назад

I'd try it. Not much different than eating raw oysters?

@sagetscippio8878 4 года назад

Man, I'm so glad I came across your channel. Love your attitude and positive energy!! Those crab traps, lol... fun stuff! Out here in California, always planned to do some diving but, unfortunately in 2015 I had 2 brain surgeries and they told me I could never go diving again, or swimming underwater due to pressure on my skull possibly causing a seizure or stroke. But you're very inspiring! I may ease my way back into the water. Even if it just some shallow stuff in our rivers, lakes, or along the coast! #Blessings to you, man! Keep up the good work and videos!🙏🏾✌🏿👍🏿

@TripSmith 4 года назад

I'm glad you came across the channel as well! Yea, ease back into it. Lots of adventure Out There!

@FreeUrMindz 4 года назад

You make it back in the water yet my friend? I'd say you'd definitely be safe for some shallow water fun as pressure doesnt build much in the first 10-15 ft.....i have countless friends who have been told they'd never do this or that again in their whole life and a couple years they were back doing what they love so dont take any doctors word as gospel....good luck I hope your conditions allow a safe return to the wild!

@justjayjustjay5054 5 лет назад

Wild hog jaw bone. Pig Island apparently got it's name for a reason.😉

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

That's probably the right answer ;)

Hi, Trip 👍🏻👍🏻 Belated Happy Birthday to you 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Awesome paddle board and hunting for scallops adventure. Thanks for sharing, enjoy and have a Blessed Sunday !!! Danny

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Thankya Danny! Glad you enjoyed it!

@patrickholcomb9628 5 лет назад

gather some sea grass in your mesh bag, put the bag on top of the crabs and it will keep them cool, calm, and hydrated fresh more easily until you get home/camp. sea-grass or seaweed is a natural insulator... splash it ever so often with saltwater and your good for 3 -4 hours...add a wet towel over top 4-5 hrs live (just keep splashing them) 30 yrs+ experience, I'm 40 y.o.

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Oh dang, what awesome advice Patrick! I get a lot of tips from folks, this one I won't forget! Thanks for sharing!

@wayneburbage8900 5 лет назад

@tidetalkwithwebb5391 5 лет назад

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Thanks Webb! Great area to spend some time.....

@TheGetty666 5 лет назад

Trip I love your videos I'm from wales we don't get the weather you do and the water is ain't as clear as it is where you are but that don't bother me😀I'm getting a sup board soon they looks loads of fun!! Keep making your videos they cheer me up on these cold days thanks👍🏻👍🏻

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Glad you enjoy the video way over there! Oh yea, grab you a SUP and have some good times bud. I'll keep filming!

@PADDLECAMPFISH 5 лет назад

Been waiting for this video! We saw your truck at the kayak launch, and camped on the same island! not sure if it was the same night. We camped on the end of the island out from that sailboat and too ate raw scallops! They were actually good and sweet. Day two we found the spot and harvested a few gallons but they were picked through. Also got into a school of redfish on the backside of the island. Great video! Next year I'm going early and cashing in!

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Haha! Yep, I think I would have seen yall if it was the same night.... I think I'll be heading back next year as well. I wonder if the new Eagle Pass that Hurricane Michael made will have much effect on the ecosystem?

@decapolis01 5 лет назад

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Me too Charles... One day when things open back up down there I'll go investigate the changed landscape

@markdonohue772 5 лет назад

Great video trip. I’m guessing it looks nothing like this anymore. I’ve been slow to watch this one because of Michael. Looking to get up there and help rebuild. Saw the live video on Facebook, never thought about eating them raw, but I eat oysters raw. Why not!

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Thanks Mark and you are right, it looks a bit different now. But a year from now we can look at it like a new beginning maybe? Heck yea! They were great raw!

@ArbitraryLifestyle 5 лет назад

Kinda cool to see a pine tree so close to the water.

Sweet adventure! Looking to get that same SUP and wondering how does it handle in rougher waters?

@TripSmith 4 года назад

It was awesome! Oh cool, it's an awesome sup and handles rough water really well. It can't sink.... The question is how does the paddler handle rough water ;)

@ingelri2 4 года назад

More likely the smaller cousin of the hammerhead called the bonnethead shark. They are frequently caught inshore and are supposed to be good eating.

@TripSmith 3 года назад

Oh cool! Good info!

@rickyshalf9636 5 лет назад

its a yetti mandabal a hog im pretty sure look at the teeth flat grinders its more than likely a pig skunk ape lol mayby a life jacket pallet on the deck? just thinking and looking around the boat

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Gotcha, I'l take your word for it ;) What is a life jacket pallet? Never heard of one of those....

@wayneburbage8900 5 лет назад

Cool. I used to pry scallops from San Diego bay bridge Until fish and game enlightened me to the bag limit. I was young and stupid I paid off the fine by cleaning the judges office. I found a silver dollar and gave it to him while polishing his oak desk. He thanked me and gave a job recommendation with his letterhead. Funny how things turn out.

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Awesome! We have all been young and dumb lol Oh how cool! I guess it worked out in the end.

Going down to scallop next week. Would you recommend this same area or after your experience, would you prefer somewhere else?

@TripSmith 3 года назад

Awesome! I'd say Steinhatchee for sure.... Still lots down there

@LarryTalbot_1313 5 лет назад

When I was a kid my father taught me that if we ran out of TP (and it has happened!) to use leaves for taking a dump. Use green leaves but make sure you know which are which. The last thing you need to do is pick up some poison oak leaves or something! You can use brown leaves but they break up easily. Then you have all that water to clean up, just in case something goes horribly wrong.

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Yep, I've used many many leaves over the years when I was younger. They were my last resort ; )

@LarryTalbot_1313 5 лет назад

I never said it would be like Charmin, I only said it would work!

@TheDcrocks1 5 лет назад

Trip is not camping that boat is his air b&b for the night.dont let him fool you. Awesome gwtting on the boat.i kayak all the time around abandoned boats and never thought about doing that.

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

You got me figured out! Well, it can be a little sketchy but it's an adventure!

@TheDcrocks1 5 лет назад

Hey trip thanks a lot for answering. Hey I got a pretty awesome idea for a video, hopefully you can consider it. A cool video would be to ask some of your patreon, fans, family basically whoever we want to join in and see who can do the best Tripp Smith imitation. And what I mean by that, have people quotes some of the lines of some of your videos, in there bus trip Smith voice.

@littlebuddy3049 5 лет назад

Is the kyak better then board?I like to be covered up.?

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

It depends on how you look at it. I like the SUP much better than a yak ;)

@christof705 5 лет назад

if I had to guess I'd say that jawbone was from a deer, but I'm not familiar with what species are down your way.

@TripSmith 5 лет назад

Yea, we certainly have deer... WHo knows lol

@Alexmqouthere 5 лет назад

I guess there is no more kayak use in this channel, but anyway it a great video..

Better tip for TP is to just use LEAVES. If you need then wash you self on in the OCEAN. Why make more wast. The Packet Gourmet looks like it generates a lot of trash.

Trip, take you a piece of meat (raw) my Grand maw always used a chicken neck tie it to a string and just sit there on your floating devise and throw that meat that's tied to the string out in the water, when the crab gets on it it will try to take the meat with it and the line ( string) will slowly tighten up and you just start easing the string in toward you,and simply with a dip net scoop the crab up when it gets with in reach,I realize you are performing for a video but this works....Johnny B.
