The latter has, however, built a devoted fan base of his own, many of whom enjoy seeing his exploits as he goes about living off of the land and sea.

His latest video on social media proves just that, as his followers reacted with shock and awe at his latest capture and the sheer scale of it.

Connor shared a video of the gigantic fish that he and his friends had managed to catch, celebrating as it was put on display.

"Got it done yesterday with the boys. 301# Warsaw on the hand crank," he captioned his clip, and his comments were filled with many exclamations.

Connor's fans reacted with awe to his new fishing video

"Oh wow Connor!!! Great catch!!! #catchoftheyear," one commented, with another saying: "What in the [expletive]!!! How many pounds was that."

A third even inquired: "I hope you ate it??? I kinda feel bad for the beautiful fishy, but hope it was eaten," with Connor clarifying that it was all ultimately for a good cause, responding with: "Don't feel bad! This fish went to charity and is feeding a lot of people."

Connor and his sister rarely share any insight into their relationship with their famous parents, keeping their family time private.

While there were reports that both were estranged from their mother due to their involvement in Scientology, the actress has dismissed any rift with her children.

The two prefer to stay out of the spotlight

"Motherhood is about the journey," she told The Sun in 2019. "There are going to be incredible peaks and valleys, whether you are an adopting mother or a birth mother. What a child needs is love."

Nicole added: "They have made choices to be Scientologists. It’s our job as a parent to always offer unconditional love."
