You Wouldn't Believe What Was On Our Crabbing Handline 

Joyce gets the prize for the biggest catch of the day!! I don't think he will fit in your steamer Joyce, but you guys ended up with a very nice mess of crabs. You all have got me ready to move to FL and I would in a heartbeat if I could afford to move. I am dead serious about wanting to move. Nothing close to crabs except crawfish in the mountains of East Tennessee. Thank you guys for all the great videos and stay safe.

Lol 😂my Howie and I caught several alligators 🐊 on our crab lines down in Pecan Island Louisiana. He always laughed at me cause I got so scared and angry. We were catching big crabs 🦀 Thanks for sharing Sam and Joyce 😘🐊🦀

Wow! I've never and I hope I never will I love the crabbing and especially love how Joyce prepares them. She's really something in the kitchen and now she's an alligator catcher!

Nice size alligator 😮 he would have made some good alligator fritters 😊.

Whoa! I'd scream and back off too. Wow. Mark that spot as off limits now. LOL

I could just tell how hungry Sam was for crab dinner! Good for you guys

Wow that was a 6-8 footer so glad y’all are ok. Mr Sam yiu need to keep a pow pow on your side for the 🐊. Mrs. Joyce that meal look delicious.

Yep, little Bertha, a 12 footer chased Jettie Rocks Fishing away from that very spot last week!

New subscriber here. I love seafood and there is nothing better than to catch and cook your own. I am retired and told my wife that if we lived on the Gulf Coast I would either go fishing, shrimping or crabbing every day! But, unfortunately I live in central Arkansas a good 8 hour drive from Galveston or Port Arthur. We love to go visit our relatives in the Houston - Galveston area. We usually go in early November, tourist season is over, and our various relatives have several beach houses that we can stay in for free! But when we go, I get the relatives to take us to their favorite seafood restaurants and I pay in exchange for the free stay! I do love fresh seafood! Shrimp, crab and oysters are the BEST!

You two are amazing. I wanted to see what Joyce was going to do to cook the alligator. Alligator sauce picant. The crabs looked amazing but the homemade rolls were fabulous looking. Stay safe guys

Nice day out there Sam. Im not sure right were your at but another RU-vidr crabs at that exact spot and his best day he caught 42 crabs. All good size. Hope you had fun.

I’ve watched this video several times, makes me giggle every time! So Joyce when you gonna show us how to cook Gator?

Send Joyce catches the biggest ones lol wow that was fantastic. I love it.

Hey guys, I'm watching, a little late. But when I saw your video up. I ran to it.

Your vid reminded me of my younger days crabbing on the tributaries of the conn. river at the long Island sound. If the flats weren't biting then we'd go inland and fish for crabs the same way you did this day. Oh boy I could smell that boil all the way over here in the Tampa area. Thanks for the memories of my youth! I'm 73 now and havn't crabbed in years but I wish i was!

I don't know why I torture myself by watching these videos. They look so good!!! We need to make a road trip!! I do enjoy your videos though!!!

Good morning. I hope you have a productive weekend.

like her reaction when the gator surfaced his head and tail. NIce job handling those in...

Miss Joyce said put it in the box lol she wants to keep all of them lol

To think, she could have gotten a new pair of boots. Just had to pull it in. Love you guys. Many times the high point of my day.

So glad you guys are ok. That was not quite what you where trying to catch. However what a great day. Love the new burner. Enjoy the weekend

I really like your videos....Even though I thought I knew how to catch crabs with a hand line, I've seen the type of nets you use AND the way you use the net to "Sneak up" on the crabs from the rear!!! Real crafty if I must say!!!! I always used the 4 sided traps....I never thought much of the cloth ring traps until I started watching you guys. There's a whole new world waiting for me out there !!! Thanks for the lessons!!! lol

That is a good amount of crabs to eat. I have many encounters with gators here on the Texas coast also. Nice burner.

We were out there today. So was the gator and his little brother. Caught a few, mostly small, but it's ok cuz they will become bait tomorrow. Also found a ring trap someone left. Gator must've forced a speedy evacuation, and they left without it.

Awesome video ! I live in CT and our season is from may first till the end of November ! It has been a good year and I love to go !

you guys truely enjoy life

Great catch of 🦀 they were a nice size too. Enjoy 😊

Started. Getting my crabs out at Rocket spot now you trying to get my Gators to😂😂😂

Hey I guess you kids are new to Fla. The one standing rule is "Please don't feed the long hairless dogs". lol Nice trip & great vid folks. I've been wondering about those things down there... 😁

That was a sneaky gator, good way to end the outing though. Thanks for taking us along!

Wow! That's a big Gator. Love your crabbing adventures.

WOW! What a surprise 😀. I think you guys were intruding on his private spot 😂.

What a great video! Great crabbing and everything else. even your olive oil commercial was good❤

When that alligator popped up out of the water it reminded me of JAWS 😂

so jealous how often you get out to get crabs, half reason i moved to Florida. looking forward to hit st johns in september for a crab, shrimp, alligator (lake poinsetta tags) combo trip. another great day catch for you guys,congrats.

HOWDY MY FRIENDS .. YOU LIVE A WONDERFUL LIFE ❤❤ I LOVE WHAT YOU SHARE. BIG TEXAS HUG'S Charlene

Love you guys 👍👍

Great video. Glad you guys are good.

Nice video. Stay safe . Looking so yummy.

What a feast, my friends! I have come close to some alligators by accident. No bueno!

You two are amazing, remind me of my mom and pop. To bad it wasn't alligator season. Tasting it now. Have y'all ever battered and fried your crabs.

Joyce should have coached that gator in... it was a keeper for sure...

You guys be careful out here! You'd need a real big pot to steam that 'gator.😁

Another great video! That feast at the end looked epic! I grew up going to the Jersey Shore. I don't think I'd be ok with a gator on my handline!

If you add a small cork to the line where the bridle connects to the main line the crabs won’t leave the net. If the crab is on top of the bridle they may run. Love your videos.

😮😂❤omg I would freak out lol 😝

Sam,, I just got to ask,,, did Joyce pee her pants when that gator popped up looking straight at her,,, 🤔🤣🤔🤣🤔 I'm happy Joyce is OK,, but you know I had to laugh a little just thinking about the look on her face,,, 😂😂😂 Great job to the 2 of you for enjoying your retirement and sharing it with us,,,, plus you might just help out the retirement fund by making a few bucks making these videos,, 👍👍👍

Eat the dam gators too, what the hell, go for it !

Great crab 🦀 video what a big catch did you keep it great meat 🥩

We could have had an alligator "catch and cook." I'm sure Joyce could have made a delicious meal out of it! 😋👍👍

Bad alligator! Well that's florida for yah😅

Unbelievable ! Great video !!

Every one is a keeper if you.ask Joyce she like to fill the cooler so she can take home and make magic!! Bet she could make good gator dinner lol

Wow put him in the box miss Joyce y'all stay safe

Disappointed in you Sam.. the master cast net thrower for shrimp.. blue crabs don't stand a chance.. Joyce had it on the line.. all she needed was a good net job and we could have blue crab and gator tail😂

That alligator could have the chicken, I'm out 😆 🤣 😂

lmao he musta been hungry

Wow that was a scary moment. I'm so glad that ya'll are okay. That gator better leave my young couple alone 😅. Now, once again the video was great and the meal looks good. I'm so happy that ya'll enjoyed yourselves on such a beautiful day..

I would have been horrified but it was hilarious to watch! 😂😂😂😂😂 I’d be scared to crab there now. Only because I wouldn’t that thing rushing the bank or seeing the chicken as a easy meal

Hey alligator ain't bad eating either. Come on Sam where's your 6 shooter lol

Hi Folks viewer from SoCal, I just thought about the fact that ya'll live in Florida, thats why you can multi-state down south crab fish. laissez le bon temps rouler.

Reminds me of the movie Jaws, you're going to need a bigger net

This looks exactly like the spot that Mike D from jettie rocks fishing was at. He did amazing there if it is the same spot

Alligators are a rude awakening. About a month ago, one ruined a wire 2 ring net for me. There are a lot of us out here relating right now. Thanks for the content

When I grow up I want to be just like y'all

Good crabbing guys. No gators for me. 🐊

Oh no Ms. Joyce, you didn't need that big crab(Gator).

Holy crap y'all! 😮 Better be careful with those gators!! Yep, it was definitely time to load up and get the heck outta Dodge! 🐊 Great load of crabbies though.....awesome job guys! Love it, you definitely made my day! ❤👍😁🦀

Never miss your show, my wife and I crab all winter long. My wife also has a problem throwing small crabs back. We do it a little different than most but would like to start some handlining. Where do you get your dipnets? Also you can keep the alligators!!!

Do you take dinner reservations? Never had crab like that, looks so good.

Looks delicious!

Great job! Excellent video. Where on the east coast of Florida is this place?

Coooool

Great catching, great cooking!

I would’ve dropped everything and ran with that alligator there. But are probably use to them. I just love watching your shows. I’d love to crabbing. But I live in Illinois and the only way I can get crab is in the store. I can always you guys. Love ya.

ANOTHER GREAT DAY

Just moved to Brevard county and new to crabbing. I would love to know where to go and /or my wife and I would love to join you guys. I just bought crabbing equipment and Ready to go !

When Joyce caught that gator, I would've beat her to the truck!! Yep, time to go home 😂

Nice catch but that gator no way y’all need to be careful close to that water….🦋🦋🦋

🐊🐊🐊 Ft. Pierce 🦀🦀🦀

do you all carry (a gun) just in case of emergencies (like if they come after you or get you?). love the crabs, i need a place here in va to sit and catch them but im too far from the potomac (river) now.

That looked like a great time and a great meal. Currently as I typed this comment I'm stuffed like a Pig but I couldn't help wanting some of those delicious looking crabs. Good job, folks ! 👍

Hey Joyce, make a Cajun crab gumbo your style. I’d like to see that.

alligator had the size of a keeper lol

I caught a doubler three days ago and put the peeler in a styrofoam cooler with some bay water and an aerator, and today I am eating a fresher than fresh softcrab sandwich with tomato and mayo. Why in the world would that gator prefer chicken over crab meat?

I have quite a few guy harvey shirts , get them when I stay at my place in islemorada

No thanks on that gator I can't move fast enough anymore. Love the cook's I use J. O. 2 seasoning from Maryland try it you'll love it. Stay safe please😂

I know that place very well. I always watch my back and front and sideways for them gators. I tell people not to let their kids in the water. But they look at me crazy.

It’s 2023. That wasn’t a gator… He identifies as a crab! 😂

The moon is full so the crabs are full

made me hungry

hey Joice, at 12:08 i love that shirt, where did you get it?

What area were you crabbing in..i asked another youtuber who crab,s also but never responded back to me and the surroundings look the same as he goes..thank you and god bless..

That was too funny when that Gator got that line I bet you somebody's going down there and feeding it that's why it's there and it knows about the chicken that or somebody's crabbing down there besides y'all and leaving their crab lines out there when they're done so now the gator has a taste for chicken

Hello where did you get that blue crab bowl its so cute

I caught an Alligator by the tail with a Rod & Reel. Had to get my Grandmother to cut the line with scissors.

What’s the name of that road?

😲😲🐊

Be careful out there wow

How do you get a alligator in salt water when those mangroves around or was that a crocodile in how can a alligator get over there in salt water unless it's brackish
