NATURAL WATERSLIDE IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY! When Colty told me about this place I thought to myself no way it could be that close. To my surprise, it was only an hour away from the city. Something to be aware of is that there are a couple of moderate to difficult parts of the hike where you must scale rocks and go through light streams - make sure you bring water shoes and snacks for your adventure. It’s only about a 20 minute walk from the road you park on so overall this is very enjoyable. Be safe on your adventure! #adventure #waterfall #waterfalls

TROUT CATCH AND COOK When I say catching a trout is the most demoralizing activity I’ve ever participated in I AM NOT JOKING!!! They swim up stream and stare at you as if they’re teasing the entire time. What’s more frustrating is every local has a different secret. You explain you can’t catch one and they say you’re doing it all wrong. Truthfully, every way to catch them works it seems. Salmon eggs, spinner baits, artificial power baits, I’d seen people catch one of these beauties with everything listed. The one I caught was at nearly 6 am right after the white waters. The locals say to cast downstream from the strong current because the trout will be laying in wait to catch prey stuck in the current. It is very popular to fly fish for trout, this is something I’d like to get into. The art of fly fishing is so methodical. That’s going to be my next mission to concur. RECIPE: Wild Trout Salt Black Pepper Garlic Powder Onion Powder Paprika Scale and gut the fish as shown in the video. Lather the seasonings above on the inside and outside of your trout. Cook for about 4-6 minutes on each side or until fish is cooked to your liking and enjoy!

I’m sorry for all the hurt I’ve caused. This was truly a foolish stunt on my end and I did not think it through. I’m going to take a few days from posting to reflect on how I can be a more responsible creator in the future and ensure nothing like this happens again. You all are valid in the way you feel towards me at the moment - I will do better in the future.

After I made this video I realized it had been 9 years after he passed and not 10. I had been building it up so much in my head that I completely lost track of time. Losing my brother early was so hard for my family. I remember his smile, laugh, so many little things about him. The tough part is forgetting though. Sometimes I’ll try to recall his laugh and the memory comes up blank. It makes me tear just thinking about it. You never think someone in your immediate family is going to pass away, and when they do, you realize tragedy is a very real thing, and that we’re not invisible. My sister texted me yesterday morning and said “last day with Alex, what would you do?”, it completely broke me down. I called her to tell her I was crying and she apologized, but truth is she shouldn’t have. I appreciate the fact we can talk about him to this day and make his memory live on. I’m 23 years old right now, next year I’ll be 24 which is the age he passed away at. You never think you’ll be older than your oldest brother - I must admit I’m dreading my next birthday. I feel so young and to think he only go to this age in life is heartbreaking. Alex is literally a genius. He knew a little about a lot and always knew the answer to a math problem. His laugh is extremely contagious, kinda like a low groan that continues on for a few seconds. He loved my sister’s cooking, he was warm, his smile is literally the best thing ever. If you’ve noticed I keep going from past to present tense with the words “was” and “is”. I’ve always struggled speaking about my brother in the past tense. To think I’ll never have a new memory with him is heart breaking. The last day at Jamba Juice was an amazing day, he came out purely because I asked him too even though he felt like crap. I get comments asking why I smile on my posts when I speak about difficult topics, the answer is it’s my job. I try to put a positive spin on everything because my goal is to entertain, inspire, and make you guys happy. The truth is I’m not okay today, or yesterday, probably not tomorrow either. I cry for hours everyday whenever September comes around. My honest thoughts are this wasn’t fair at all and he deserved so much more time with us. I deserved it, my family did. What happened is so cruel. The point I’m trying to make is it’s okay to not be okay, just like I am right now. Writing this caption, the blanket below me is soaked with tears. I love and miss my brother so much. I will be going through my day with a fake smile and fake positivity, and that’s okay.

FLOUNDER CATCH AND COOK You all kept tagging @Bassbanshee in the comments, SO WE FINALLY COLLABED!! Comment who you want to see me collab with next 👀 Growing up my grandpa would tell me stories about catching flounder and how they’re the chicken of the sea. I thought they were native to only the northeast United States so when BassBanshee told me they were in Northern Florida I jumped at the opportunity. Flounder are opportunistic predators, it’s very rare they pursue their prey. They’d rather remain camouflaged to the bottom and wait for an unsuspecting victim to pass over, then suck them in with their massive mouths. Flounder are able to get up to about 33 inches in this area. It’s cool what you can do with the different fillets because the top and bottom of the fish are different cuts. Our guide recommended stuffing the bottom fillet(thinner one) so that’s what we did here. RECIPE: Fresh Flounder Fillets 2 oz Boursin Cheese (Garlic & Herb) 4 oz Cream Cheese Onion Spinach Italian Seasoning Garlic Powder Onion Powder Salt Pepper Paprika STUFFING: Sauté your onion and spinach in olive oil and butter until spinach is completely reduced and onions are crispy brown. Once finished, add sautéed spinach and onion to a bowl with your Boursin cheese and cream cheese. Mix until all flavors completely combine. Next, add in Italian Seasoning, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Salt, Pepper, and Paprika. Mix and taste as you go along. Add more of whatever you see fit! FLOUNDER Generously season flounder with Salt, Pepper, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, and Paprika. Once finished, put stuffing at the end of the flounder fillets and roll them up. The more stuffing you can fit in, the better! Pan fry on stove top for 1 minute on each side, then put in the over at 375 for 10 minutes. Make sure entire fillet is fully cooked before taking out of the oven and enjoy!!

Full Disclosure, i am not sure i correctly identified this species 😂 As always do your own research before consuming. There are over 200 different species of Nopal Cacti. All i know is the bulb of fruit on top tasted great. If i did identify the correct cactus, that means there’s food literally EVERYWHERE cause these things grow like there’s no tomorrow.

SPOTTED GAR CATCH AND COOK You guys didn’t think I’d get surgery and NOT have catch and cooks in the bank ready for this exact moment did you?? I’d NEVER let you guys go more than a month without one of those. Growing up gars always looked prehistoric to me. The armor, teeth, even the eyes are reminiscent of dinosaurs. I remember one time I went camping and saw a 6 foot gar next to my canoe. At the time I didn’t know they got that big and was in complete shock, I thought it would eat me(I was young)! Gar’s teeth are made for holding and subduing prey, not tearing into bite-sized chunks like sharks, therefore they don’t eat things they can’t swallow. RECIPE: -Spotted Gar Fillets -Salt -Pepper -Butter -Oil (of your choice) -Starts by seasoning your spotted gar fillets with salt and pepper (maybe use less than I did lol) -Pan fry for 3 minutes or until meat is white and you can cut through it with a fork. This recipe is very basic because I wanted to taste the gar for the fish it is. You can do anything you’d like in ways of seasoning it. If I were to do it over, I’d use Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Salt, Black Pepper. Let me know what you want me to catch and cook next!
