The video documents a fishing trip on the Edisto River, one of the longest free-flowing blackwater rivers in South Carolina (0:09). The group, including the filmer's granddaughter Krisleigh, sets out to check set lines that were placed the previous day (0:16).

Here's a breakdown of the video:
The Edisto River The video begins with an introduction to the Edisto River, highlighting its length and the presence of large flathead catfish (0:09-1:10). The video also mentions the challenges of navigating the river due to logs and fallen trees, emphasizing the need for small boats (1:14-1:48).
Checking Set Lines and Initial Catches The team checks their set lines, explaining their bait choices (1:52-2:00) and the technique for setting and retrieving the lines (3:06-4:20). They encounter some lines with no fish or just bait remaining (2:27-2:59, 8:26-8:33, 11:19-11:21). However, they successfully catch a flathead catfish (6:14-6:40) and later a larger flathead (10:04-10:20) and a blue catfish (16:17-16:40).
Fish Cleaning and Preparation After fishing, the video shifts to the process of cleaning and filleting the caught fish (19:31). They differentiate the meat color between blue catfish and flatheads (21:19).
Cooking the Fish The filleted fish are prepared for cooking, cut into nugget-sized pieces, and battered with a Cajun-style seafood breading mix, panko bread crumbs, and Old Bay seasoning (26:41-27:07). They deep-fry the fish along with crinkle-cut fries (27:26-28:49).
Family Meal and Wrap-up The video concludes with the family enjoying the fried fish and fries, with Krisleigh, who helped catch the fish, getting the first taste (31:27-31:50). The hosts thank viewers for watching and invite them to join future adventures (32:21-32:36).
