I don’t know how I found your channel because I’m a 30 y/o woman who has never been fishing before. However, your content has proven to be something inconsistently enjoy and find myself inspired by. I can’t wait til I can take trips like this and try fishing in such a beautiful environment.
❤ it’s the best feeling
I'm vegetarian and love this content..so inspiring and amazing chef!!
I don't go fishing and I've been watching his videos for years. Watch his video when he's making crab cakes 😅 🎉
Or watch his recent eel video. That was very surprising and superbly efficient!
Been following him for 9 + years, you won't be disappointed ❤
Yeah, I've never gone fishing too but i love this guy's joy when he catches something,and even when he doesn't catch anything his love for nature and the outdoors make me feel good on the inside.. And he seems to be a freaking awesome chef so, ya, that's a 2 for 1 !!!
I dont know why this man doesnt have millions subs yet. His contents are so damn amazing
Taku, your patience and persistence paid off. Congratulations on a trout you will remember the rest of your life. You have joy and contentment in your heart, and it is wonderful to behold.
That's s really nice comment 👍
Well done bro🎉. Some locals have fished the canals for years and still haven't caught anything. Hats off to you my friend. Love the aotearoa (aka new Zealand) fishing videos. Keep up the good work 👏
Dude you’re living the dream 🙏🎣🎉
Been loving your NZ fishing adventures, Taku! Hope you keep making these NZ videos!
Kia Ora Taku,
Thankyou for returning the Big boy back, he'll definately help share the fishing love to many more little ones by reproducing great specimens.
Enjoy your time here bro, it's a pretty amazing bit of rock 👍🏽
Wow! Here in San Diego we have wind so not fishing today, having coffee and just watched your sister Mitsuki with a beach cleanup and fishing and then seeing your latest OCL pop up and what a show this is. Taku, Jocelyn, this is one of the best shows I have ever seen. Following your trip has been a joy and to see the both of you work so hard and pull off this fish is just amazing. I can feel and see the passion/emotion in Jocelyn and you after you landed that trout. What a feeling that is and you were able to bring that feeling out on this day. Great job! We wish you all the best. Danny and Kim, San Diego, CA.
Rainbow of a lifetime! That was absolutely incredible. And even with no fish your lunch still looked unreal! 😆 amazing vid Taku!
Nice fish!! And a delicious looking dinner!!
I've watched your channel for a longtime now. I'm not much of a saltwater guy but I am an avid trout fisherman who fishes in California and you just caught my dream fish,. Love it. If you fish trout, than New Zealand trout fishing is definitly on your dream list of places to catch the biggest trout in your entire life. Well done!
australian and new zealand lamb just hits different not gonna lie
Nice fish 🤙🏾. Love your fish videos always the true feeling of excitement
taku have you ever thought to do a bow hunt and cook? New Zealand is a hunters paradise. it has so many delicious animals to hunt from all over the world. I love bow hunting. it is a pure primal experience. i think you would love to watch the animal get so close before you decide to take its life to sustain your own. it takes a lot of discipline patience and practice to hit your mark with a bow. for me it is always a spiritual experience to take an animal's life and sustain my life from its flesh. wild meat is the best. i have a freezer full of deer meat. i love having the power to decide when and how to take its life to prolong my own. i process my deer myself. I taught myself.
I always follow you because I'm so happy to see it, especially when fishing gets the strike moment 🎣👍
Man’s voice so calming! I need you to narrate my everyday life at home esp when kids having a tantrum.
NZ rainbow trout is so good! Keep the tour going bro! Best scenery 🤜🏽🤛🏽
Well done man! Also, NZ is stunning!
Congrats Taku, what a nice trout of a lifetime at a place that only one goes in a lifetime. Those Lamb chops looked really good cant lie, can't wait for yoy guys come back California bay area and start kicking out some halibut and rockfish videos. As always best of luck to you guys,
Made my day when you finally caught the big rainbow. Thank you also for showing us more beautiful side of the country ❤
Great video! That water looks amazing. Your hard work paid off! Definitely on the bucket list for us. Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations! That feeling is incredible especially after fishing for 4 days! Makes it even sweeter!
Nice rainbow trout Taku. Your joy of fishing and superb catch got through! Greetings from Finland, on the other side😎🇺🇲🇯🇵🇫🇮👍
I was just fishing there the other day too! Glad that you managed to catch a monster trout! Will be fishing there more often to try and catch a monster trout too.
I love how much i learn from your videos. As an avid fisherman and proficient forager you both have taught me so many usual things. Thank you so much
Mad respect Taku. Your resilience is next level. On to the next fish!
Thanks for sharing your awesome trip with us. Made for great content. Congrats on that epic fish
That was an absolute tank for 6lb line! Congrats! Also cool to see the other stuff on the other channel. Place looks beautiful!
Taku caught a fish
A big beast of a trout
Successful release
Haiku for Taku
Awesome BIG rainbow Taku - great video. And the lamb and risotto looked amazing!
Well done Taku! Great angling! Not an easy thing to do but I'm not surprised you finally got one. No fun if it's too easy ;)
Well done mate! Awesome to see you were rewarded for the big effort you put in there 👌🏼
aaahhh!!! wow!!! that was 4 days of some crazy, amazing, epic, fishing.
congratulations catching the big beautiful rainbow trout! it truly was a big trout!!!
and
love that jocelyn is such a good luck charm for ye!!! waaay cool! 🕊
Amazing fish! Have loved watching your New Zealand trip around my home keep it up!
Big rainbows, big browns, big tench and rudd and massive perch. Every American course fishermans dream
Moral of the story here folks: don't give up...no matter how long it takes.
i love watching all your adventures. my line of choice is Ande 6 lb tournament green mono. i fish the lake erie tributaries for steelhead every year and my PB is a 9.6 lb rainbow trout. there's no better feeling than having that fish on your line and trying to get them in. when you set the hook you gotta relax and take your time. it is worth the wait. the rollercoaster of emotions during the fight is real. it is the best adrenaline rush ever to get them in and in the net. i also released my biggest trout. it feels good to catch the biggest fish of your life and release them and watch them swim away.
I guess that was a PB trout for you! Great job, you put in the time and it paid off!
Chur bro glad Aotearoa has "is" living up to your expectations 😊 Even with a friendly reminder- Do the Mahi get the treats 🤙
The canals are on my bucket list. I have a plan to try float/bobber fishing, so was stoked to see you give it a go! I think it could work with some refinement. Glad you got your fish, you deserve it!
Great you’ve got to experience this world class fishery Taku! Did you also get on to the salmon there?
The agony of learning how to fish, is not really felt all that much at the time of learning, but it is fun to watch for those who that know how to fish.
No one can doubt your commitment ❤
Lamb and Pinot Noir is a classic pairing. Great video!😊
Aloha, lamb and Shiraz for me!
Hello Taku, this is such a weird topography / looks not almost unfriendly for fishing...so happy for the fish you landed, a monster!!!, and love your cooking influence always! i wish i was there! Thank you Taku
The Canals is such an interesting place to fish, theres some absolutely massive fish and just so many places to explore. First time I was down there I caught a reasonable fish in about the first couple of casts and I assumed it was going to be easy man, was I wrong. Took me a few more days to catch something decent. Its almost like learning to fish all over again, but is very rewarding.
New Zealand Chef here. If I can give you advice with cooking lamb, use a unsalted butter with a neutral oil while searing, then cover on a medium to low heat for 5 minutes to start the fat rendering process, then after 5 minutes cook until all sides are caramelised. Obviously in a kitchen an oven will speed this up, but I've found the method I've mentioned works well in a camping environment
Glad you are living the dream, Taku. You deserve it. Even better you share it with your love. The best. You both enjoy and be safe!
that is crazy the rainbow trout in NZ get THAT big and have the bent snout like a salmon does in the US. I know they are in the same family but wow that is cool, i bet they taste amazing too.
That canal he is fishing is the only place in NZ where they get that big because of the salmon farms, the pellets they feed the salmons overflow into the canel. Rest of rivers and lakes here have normal size rainbows.
Congrats Taku! Great to see you both having a fun time. Your persistance was awesome, great job.
Crazy how that first “little” trout you caught would be considered a monster in most trout streams and lakes in the US
Nah. Come try fishing for trout here in Colorado. My biggest rainbow trout Is 11lbs 30in.
We have some absolute monster trout in 11 mile reservoir and Antero reservoir.
Google the lakes if u feel so inclined
@@-a-strikelures1212 true. Well I have fished in CO but only around Rocky Mountain Nat. park for greenback cutthroats. Was really fun but none of the fish I caught were over a pound. I’m from Southern California and some of the lakes here do have some enormous Rainbows but they’re still hard to come across
Not all lakes and rivers here in NZ have massive trout like the video. Where he is fishing is the only in NZ where you can get these monster trout because of the pellets that feed the salmon farms.
@@FranklinLive Im sure haha. But NZ does have many beautiful trout streams for all types of trout, especially for a place which never had any native species of trout/salmon… a similar case with Patagonia
Also, big shout-out to the beautiful Jocelyn for sticking with you for all of these years.
She's a real trooper!
Awesome video 🐟🐟
Beautiful catch 🎣 Taku. Best wishes for the both of you out in New Zealand. Fish-On & Tight Lines 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
This video makes me feel better about my fishing, I must quit too early
Congrats!
A bit of advice someone that taught me on drift fishing to help you out (egg rolling)
Shorten your leader, and have about a two inch gap between your egg and hook.
Again congratulations, thanks for sharing!
Man this is a bucket list trip for me. One day ill fish that spot also
🌴 well it looks like you’ve made it , the van is fixed and the next adventure is on , catching rainbows ain’t easy , especially on a fly rod , but I to use to drift salmon eggs that were in fine netting , and used mepp’s spinners on spinning gear , I’d up the line to 8 lb test , so happy for ya on that beautiful rainbow it’s a memory you’ll never forget, and then there was those lamb lollipops my mom use to make em she would use mint vinegar or mint jelly on them 😮oh so good ! Another great vid guys , have fun stay safe , oh and watch out for them dam hobbits 😄👍🏼
Now that was a proper Rainbow Trout and you earned it
Beautiful buck! When you get back to the states, hit WI or MI great lakes. Has some good salmon and trout, perhaps catch a sea ferelon brown trout.
That was a hog of a Rainbow! Well done, another one to check off the bucket list! Glad Jocelyn was there to help and be the lucky charm! Keep living the dream you two!
Dope vid and congrats on that pig of a rainbow. Was hoping for a ep.5 of the series deliciously invasive in NZ
Goodness when you get so excited I truly get emotional! So happy for you!!!
I was super happy to see him release that fish after catching it. That's the part I love about the sport
Rainbow trout is one my favorite. I've never seen one that big before
Crazy location, crazy fish, crazy good. 💛
for a minute, I thought it was like the California drought. Somehow you pull through for all of us in California. You save California. You are a hero in the wind.❤❤❤❤❤
Go to the flaming gorge in Wyoming and you will get rainbow trout like that
That fish was flying in that clear water❤
Patience, perseverance and dedication = huge fish :) can't say i would be able to do that if i am honest.
Awesome!! Grats, Taku!!
Absolutely amazing catch - congratulations!
Good Video Taku and Jocelyn 😊. Keep em comin.
Stay Safe 💕 💞 🙏 🙏
Nice Chef, nice fishing, nice equipment and cooking methods 🧿👌🍻🍻
I’m an old man and from when I was little, I have been taught to set your drag and leave it alone. A properly set drag for your line test will work well.
i got chills when you caught it finally. so happy for you man, i was celebrating too
Night fishing is where its at bro!! Glow in the dark eggs or spinners catch the monsters!😆🙌🏽
Absolutely love these series bro. I am still waiting for the day I see your van drive pass me! HUGE FAN!!! ❤
The zoom in each time Taku takes a bite of food and revels in its deliciousness makes me chuckle every time. I hope you and Jocelyn keep making videos for a long time! Also - where’s the Discord? I’d love to connect with fellow Outdoor Chefs to fish, forage and cook in Oregon!
garlic and rosemary for lamb is the best way in my opinion! rippa fish by the way would love to get a trout like that one day!
Would honestly love a hunting catch and cook. I know it's a little out of your element but outdoor chefs don't only fish and forage!
He's done a little on his other series. It's called something like "invasive and delicious". Or "wild and invasive". Something like that. I agree 💯, but I think a lot of his viewers weren't into it
I celebrate with you on this catch as well. Was so happy when you finally caught one👍👍👍
Beautiful place. Congrats on the huge rainbow trout. Jocelyn brings you good luck. I think some people call those lamb chops lollichops? Or not?
Beautiful spot omg
Massive trout - amazing location
That's a monster of a trout you caught! Twizel is a beautiful place. You would've had some of the best star gazing on the planet while you were there. I always stop by for some alpine salmon when I'm in NZ.
HELL YEAH! Been waiting years for you to cook some lamb bro! Thanks!
Leif would love some of that trout!
Loving seeing your content showing off our fabulous country ty😊
Glad you cleaned your hand immediately. I thought you were going to continue fishing like that. Actually, i dont think ive seen you get injured before. Ill continue watching the video 👍
NICE fish!!! Well done. Love the cook of the lamb....drooling here!
Don't be afraid to use tighter drag, Amigo. (:
Of course I could understand if you were fishing with 2# test and going for a light-line record.
Wow Congratulations on that huge Rainbow trout!
looks like a salmon
That is the biggest rainbow trout I have ever seen.
Heading to twizel this long weekend, hopefully get onto some good fish.
That was a dang good fish Taku! Being a fisherman myself i know the exact feeling you had from trying so hard to catch one (especially 4 days in a row) then when you do you happen to lose it.. it was very intense to watch and i had nothing but hope for you to catch that one you were looking for and im happy you did 😭 Also the relationship and support you have from jocelyn is beautiful! Nothing better than your significant other giving you genuine support in what you love to do!
Congrats 🎣🐟🎉
My favorite new channel, felt every moment of that catch and the release. What an amazing meal and setting to celebrate. Congratulations
I'm a cook that likes to fish and I hope you do more recipes with ingredients unique to where you visit. Technically its still a catch and cook you just didn't cook what you caught. Keep living it up for the rest of us and thanks for sharing.
The biggest bow I've ever caught was 5 lbs. in North Carolina lmao of all places...and I m originally from the North Island of Aotearoa. Ngatii Maniapoto/Waikato and Ngati Ranginui/BOP. Nice catch! Looks like a Columbia River Steelhead!
Chur cuzzy,,,, Nth Carolinas a heck of a long way from home bro😂😂😂😂 ✌️✌️✌️✌️🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
@@shanefraser7764 hahaha yep... Take care cuz 🤙😎🇳🇿🇺🇲
