ive been bit by the smaller ones we get here in the states the teeth went right in my thumb i didnt feel it till the blood starting to drip. they have a anticoagulant in the mouths so when you get pricked you bleed like a stuck pig.
It's braid mate, braid is good for weight but terrible for teeth. That's why you have a different leader with the braid. Mono tends to hold up a little better when agaisnt teeth, but with a wire leader you can literally ignore the teeth.
I love watching people that are good at their jobs but I especially love watching people that are good at their jobs AND enjoy their jobs. There's a certain respect they show to their labors that is indescribably satisfying. Thanks for taking the time to video this for our education and enjoyment.
My girlfriend and I make your videos a mini event! We watch them on the big screen together and aspire to catch and cook like you do! Unfortunately we live in Southern Ontario, Canada with very dirty waters so we're looking forward to vacations! Thank you for your content, Taku!!!
There's a similar species called a Scabbard Fish or a Cuttlass Fish that lives at similar depths off Washington/Oregon. If you want something a bit closer.
I enjoy the elegance of your videos, from your fishing to filleting to cooking. The music is superb and fitting. Unlike a lot of other channels that have tasteless music.
Another amazing video. Every time I watch you fillet a fish, I'm fascinated with how much precision and passion you do it. That's the spirit of great cooking.
What a gorgeous fish! Your videos have really bonded my brother and I. He hunts all sorts of game and loves fishing, and I love cooking and learning new recipes and techniques. It's really allowed us to see the skills of the person's craft. Thank you for your rad content!
The first time I had this fish was when I was around aged 13.. The way the chef on board the ship cooked it was so simple.. No fillet required.. I did the fishing and he cooked it... The chef just cleaned the insides... Rub with salt... Deep fried it.. And cut into sections with bones.. If the fish is cooked well, the top fins can be pulled out and it looks like a comb... I still remember the taste after 27 years... 😍😍😍
Taku must of Filleted this fish before! Such a master of his art. respect. So Many cooking ideas from Taku which I've embraced with much love. Thank you
It feel so good you both or showing us what japan have to offer and I really enjoy watching your catch and cook.. Keep it up!! Make a vid where she catch and cook...
Another beautiful day fishing out at Okinawan Sea and the exhibition of your superlative knife skills.Thank you,Taku San for sharing your adventure with us.
hi Taku, just wanted to let you know that your videos have opened my eyes and inspired me to do things that I would have never thought of. Im from Sacramento and hope my family and I can chill with you and Jocelyn one of these days. Keep doing what you're doing man. Such beautiful, informative content that's applicable to daily lives.
Greetings from Thornton Colorado!!! I have friends over there at AF base. They don’t fish!! I always say “If people would just concentrate on the most important things in life, there would be a shortage of fishing poles .” I like how you switch gears when faux Salamander doesn’t get hot enough. It’s all about the recovery. I think what you need to fillet something so long is a a sushi knife mounted to a garden hose reel. Just reel fish in, turn the handle and waa lah ! Lol. Ya know sometimes the best dishes are stumbled upon. Cheers to both of you and Happy Holidays.
Chef I really admire your dedication to the traditional Japanese way of doing things using skill, good technique, and patience when cooking. You make it look effortless.
Nicely done from the catch to plate. The fishing part was fun to watch. As noted, we call them ribbonfish in Texas and we catch smaller ones to use as bait for king mackerel. That was some impressive filleting. I almost gasped audibly however when I saw that toaster oven. But it was a good save and it worked well enough to be pretty good. I appreciate the honesty and low-hype of this video.
We used to catch these alot in Cocoa Beach Florida, we call em ribbons like you mentioned. You did great job cleaning! They fry up delicious, of course I'm from the south so how we fix em is just tossed in corn meal and fried, soo good! Great video!
Wow, those are some huge ribbon fish! Awesome video as always, watching that fillet was inspiring af. Thanks for making great content, Taku and Jocelyn 🤙
Looking good taku! Your channel has grown so much since i first started watching! 1st time tuning in for like 6 months man. this is crazy! so excited for you. love your content as always
@@score2high Sea sickness or car sickness is a reaction of the brain to the conflicting messages it receives. Your body says you're moving and your eyes say you're still. The brain translates that to the symptoms of being poisoned and immediatelly commands your stomach to empty itself in order to get rid of the poison. One thing that helps is to keep your eyes occupied on the horizon or at least on moving objects instead of looking the floor or a book or a phone.
Subscribed when u did the collaboration with fishermanslife. Love the content. Had to say the camera work was excellent this vid. Especially during the filleting.
I just want to say, you two are such a beautiful and wonderful couple. Always complimenting each other so well whether it be side-by-side, in the kitchen, or over the water. Also, I love your videos! Always ready for the notification to be sent to me that you've uploaded a new video. Keep the solid content coming! Happy Holidays from my family to yours :) Cheers!
Your skill never ceases to amaze me. Love these travel / Japan episodes. I need to ad scuba diving and fishing to my bucket list japan trip. Haven't missed an episode. Your channel has come such a long way this year.
@@OutdoorChefLife I am excited. Dont forget you have a place to stay, and a boat for ya if you ever visit the area. I can't wait to see what the future holds.
As a Korean-American, my mom used to fry up some belt fish for us all the time when I was growing up. Not as big as those obviously but they are delicious. Lots of Americans just consider it a bait or trash fish because of the bones but they are missing out. You can fry them bone in and all you have to do is pick the meat out with some skillful chopstick work. It’s one of the best tasting fish out there.
Those fish are beautiful! Like sparkly silvery banners. And the filleting was SO satisfying! :D I bet you could make some beautiful fish broth with all those bones.
Hey man, the Goya in our part of the world (Trinidad and Tobago) is called Carilie (ca-rile-ee), and there’s a way to get rid of the bitterness and make it very delicious, we put a generous amount of salt (3 tablespoons) and then let it sit for half hour until most of the water and bitterness comes out, and then we wash them out and you can basically cook them however you want after that.
Beautiful fish. Thanks for taking us on the boat trip and showing the food preparation. That O-tachiuo don had me scooting closer to the screen heh heh. Be safe you two, take care. 👍🏼🍺
awesome video and nice Bell fish for sure. And they do get bigger. Sorry that Josh didn't got seasick on this fishing Expedition. I think that fish would have been great with a tempura batter around it. As it is juicy white meat. Look forward to your next video.
Whats up bro? Good videos....my 2 favorite things....fishing and cooking.... keep them up.....im from trinidad in the caribbean....we call them cutlass fish here....if u really wanna catch them...you should take a trip here......in the 6 minutes that youre taking to reel in 1.....we probably catch around 30 or more....when they are in season....so yea.... keep up the good videos....positive vibes.....
TAKU 217k SUBSCRIBERS BABY! Also-That fish looks delicious. My dad always makes bittermelon Filipino style. Never though of eating it with fish! Keep up the good work!
Epic Knife Skills Brotha ✊🏼🧐!! Always a pleasure to watch you do your magic, that fish looked super thin. If possible upload a Taklyn vid 🙏🏼! Great catch & cook guys 😉👌🏼
hi outdoor chef i have watched lots of catch and cook but i come back to ur channel i think its the best you are great in vlogging, the way u prepare ur food and the people ur with are awesome as well. please make more videos 👍👍
Great catch , fillet and cook up of the deep sea fish Okinawan style ! Looks delicious ! I also cut myself when I reached for a peeler not thinking that it was so sharp ! Peace !
I like the way you filet a fish it’s the first time I see this méthode and it’s look to work really well and you never take filet knife so I can try this technique on my next fishing trip
The way the knife clicks along the spine while he's filleting... it's like cooking ASMR
Calvin Walker kind of sounds like the clicks a roller coaster makes when your climbing upward
It's like a zipper!
Awesome video stop by and watch us unboxing 4 mystery tackel boxes!
Yes, the knife is an extension of his hand. As anyone who fillets as bad as I do can see...
Glad I’m not the only one who feels this way...ah so nice!
watching you fillet fish is the most satisfying thing ever
Allen Chen awesome fishing
@@ThydaCookingTV Thanks
Allen Chen you’re welcome my friend
I agree!! I feel like that meme right now.
Beautifully done. As much a pleasure to watch as the actual fishing 🖒
I couldn't believe how easily that line was cut by its teeth!!! That's is amazing and scary at the same time.
agreed
braid cuts easier than monofilament
ive been bit by the smaller ones we get here in the states the teeth went right in my thumb i didnt feel it till the blood starting to drip. they have a anticoagulant in the mouths so when you get pricked you bleed like a stuck pig.

Take those teeth out and make a homemade line cutter

We just got a gimble so we bout to level up!
Shes a sweetie your lucky to have her!💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
@@OutdoorChefLife I'm sorry if to be rude Jocelyn is your girlfriend? She's so cute.

Knife is life!
This video is the king of knife videos I've seen
You guys are such a great couple. Your adventures are so cool. You are so informative about everything you do. Cant wait for the next video.
Another amazing video. Every time I watch you fillet a fish, I'm fascinated with how much precision and passion you do it. That's the spirit of great cooking.
Watching you fillet the fish alone is what makes your fishing video
uniquely your style of fishing video
What a gorgeous fish! Your videos have really bonded my brother and I. He hunts all sorts of game and loves fishing, and I love cooking and learning new recipes and techniques. It's really allowed us to see the skills of the person's craft. Thank you for your rad content!
Your filleting work have always been the best.
There was something super satisfying about the sound of the first few cuts.
Can’t wait to see what you catch! You’re living the dream..
The first time I had this fish was when I was around aged 13.. The way the chef on board the ship cooked it was so simple.. No fillet required.. I did the fishing and he cooked it...

the way you cut the fish is so satisfying.
Dude these fish are mesmerizing out of water with the sliver flare from them.
It feel so good you both or showing us what japan have to offer and I really enjoy watching your catch and cook.. Keep it up!! Make a vid where she catch and cook...
That is a beautiful piece of artistry in action. Many thanks

These catch and cook vids are my haven during finals. Thanks for the good content!
I like that you show the times that it doesn't work when you try new things.
We call them walla walla in South Africa and they are the best bait for big Spanish mackerel
peaceful music plays...
OOOOH THATS PRETTY CLEAN
I can’t get enough of your content! Thank you both for sharing your fun and expertise with us all!
WOW! What a beautiful fish, so shiny and smooth, mirror like. I’m so glad you get to experience all this!!

U are such a cool chef and that peace with ur wife at the end is so cute XD
The song is soooo soothing when you are filleting the fish
Your knife skills is a pleasure to watch. What an epic cut!

Ok Okinawa boy. No seasickness, must be that Okinawa blood.
I wish that was true. I'm Okinawan and I get seasick, as does my brother.

This guy has more confidence in his fishing rod than I have ever had in myself
Thats a nice looking fish, the skin is so silver!! The fillets look delicious!!
You know this guy is a boss when he's able to get his non cooked fish eating girl to eat cooked fish willingly and actually enjoy herself.
