I just found them and i can tell you, i'm probably gonna be up till 2 3 at night binging their stuff. They seem like genuinely amazing people and i like what i think their lifestyle is. So much of everything in todays age. I'm super young and wouldn't mind just living gardening fishing ect.
@@baileyhatfield4273 Yeah, I've only been watching the channel for about 2 weeks, but I've watched around 50 videos. If you're young, make a plan and achieve the lifestyle you want. Don't buy ANY crap you don't need... for starters. Minimize all your costs and redirect that money towards a life that you actually want, instead of the life that's convenient. You can do this, if you CHOOSE to.
I just turned 75. I really wish I would have tried this lifestyle about forty years ago ( not that I didn’t like my current lifestyle). It looks so satisfying. I love to cook, garden, raise animals for eating and I’ve done a lot of that but this just looks so satisfying. Little to old to start over. You two do such a wonderful job and use good use of your time and talents. I’m so blessed to have found your channel.
As someone who lived in the PNW for 20 years, nothing is better than good salmon. I now live in FL and won’t eat the farmed junk they sell as salmon. Sure miss the good stuff but it runs around $26 a pound.
Dread waking up before 6 am for regular life... Will set alarm for 3:45 to go fishing or hunting... You are a Lucky man to sort such a great wife... Any Lovely Lady that will kiss a salmon she just snagged and whacked in the head, repeatedly... Has her priorities straight. Well Done Both of you!
It's only a surface level contradiction. If you look deeper, modern popular culture is Satanic, therefore upside down. It's THIS culture that's uncivilized because of its true nature... so Alaska being 'raw' is actually freedom from the upside down Satanic realm... they're free to be civilized.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894 what’s “satanic” about the way of living in Alaska? To me that’s the way it’s supposed to be. Before technology and laws etc hunting and fishing was life. The world we live in today with the technology and fast food etc. I think THATS satanic. Like this phone I’m on right now I think it’s evil.
I've always wanted to move to Alaska and live off the grid but due to my health that has stopped me from living that life so the next best thing is to live vicariously through channels like this. Keep up the good work because I'm for sure enjoying this entertainment.
Here in the Philippines, we cook our salmon heads sliced into 2, lengthwise, with miso (fermented soybean) paste and mustard greens...making a hot sour soup...great for cold weather days...
@@metalangel01 “sinigang na ulo nang salmon sa miso”… there are you tube videos in english…tamarind soup base is sometimes added…available in asian stores
Try grilling the salmon collars over a wood fire, skin side down for 2-3 minutes, then turn and cook maybe 1-2 minutes more. The little bit of smoky flavor compliments the fish oils.
Love the videos. When my Grandpa used to be able to fish in Oregon he would smoke and can salmon, in addition to us eating it fresh. Using his canned salmon for "tuna" fish sandwiches were the best thing when I was a kid.
I'm Canadian From BC I've been watching for years now since yall moved to Alaska. Your channel influenced me to move up north close to Juneau Alaska on the Canadian side. So far it's the best thing I ever done! So keep making awesome content and inspiring people to live a sustainable lifestyle while actually living life. Cheers 🍻
im European and im absolutely horrified about the slaughter i see in the video... how is that sustainable?... i guess you are lucky that not many people live there... here in EU, climate change, predators and overfishing caused such a drastic change that rivers are very lifeless and almost no natural spawning occurs.... even with strong fishermen community that put hundreds of thousand of euros into increasing fish population, the situation hardly improved... it will come to every part of the world eventually...
@@Zoltan1251 all those fisherman combined in that video don't even come close to 1 commercial fishermans net full. Commericial fishing is far more damaging if unregulated.
Amazing how you both adapted so quickly to local customs. You appear as though you always lived in Alaska. Each video gives a curious Bluenoser another look at the wildlife,fish species and the spectacular scenery that you expertly film. Bravo !
Not in a great head space right now, was very happy to see this uploaded to get me out of my head for a little bit. Thank you guys, now to watch the video.
@@kaweah01😊I wholeheartedly agree!! It's 2 years after you commented this, and these two are STILL putting out epic videos! Hard to believe, but they've gotten even better!
Well done! All the hard work is paying off, you two are living the GOOD life. You should be proud of yourselves. And thank you for taking us along on the adventure.
so glad I found ur channel,I grew up with my grand parents in the 60’s on a farm in NC.everything was homemade,our own hogs,chickens and a garden every year.no electric heat,AC and for a while no running water.granddaddy taught me how to hunt and the old way of life.my brother and I own half of the farm now,we have deer,turkeys and a variety of small game.I plan on retiring next year after 10 yrs of DOD contracting.my wife and I plan to split our time between our home in TX and the farm in NC.God bless y’all for sharing ur lives and the beauty of the last frontier.enjoy,as always be safe🙏
Omg. Fish carcasses especially those with the heads make the most amazing fish stock. Add celery , carrots , onions , garlic cloves and assorted seasoning like salt , pepper. Strain, then freeze or bottle. The stock will be amazing to use for all sorts of fish and seafood chowders. It’s also amazing to use for poaching fish as well. The remaining bits I’m sure can be fed to the chickens afterwards.
The latest No 1 Hit ... "The Wasabi is in my nose" hahahahaha lol ... great fishing guys ... having lots of fun ... be safe always ... don't lose your sense of awareness while out there having all that fun ,,,
I’d be there all day…..love to fish. Wow, the amount of Omega 3, 6, or 9 in these salmon is so enriched with it. Nothing better than fresh sockeye on the grill. Sushi, yum! Those chickens must lay the most healthy eggs ever. Lucky hens.
Here in the UK we mix the scrapings with potatoes and make fish cakes with various coatings such as breadcrumbs done in the pan to make the outer coating crispy
This time next week I will be on the Kenai Peninsula, hopefully landing sockeyes, too! Thanks so much for all the inspiring videos and sharing so much of your journey, you two have really gotten me motivated to do some gardening, and now this fishing trip! Thank you so much for all the hard work you put in to your channel here on You Tube, and sharing it with all of us!
Seward is the only place really hot right now, unless you count Ship creek in A-town for kings. Still a bit early for the big run on the Kenai river, but there are places to go to get some fish, and if you really work for them you can catch some on the Kenai river this early headed to the Russian river(the run just started there and I am headed down there this weekend/end of week)
I love to see the smiles on your fur babies faces when they are going fishing,, or any place you take them.. Thanks for making my day.. Love the beautiful sits you share.
I just love ❤️ your channel. Have learned so much from you two-from gardening to fishing to cooking. I’m extremely impressed with the way you care for your animals-especially your dogs-they’re so well mannered and love you both immensely. Thank you so much for showing your Alaskan journey. Stay blessed!!!
Some suggestions: Use some carcasses for fish broth, can make great soups when your veggies come along, can add fish eggs to it, delicious! Can try baked salmon, just gut it, take gills out, season to your liking and bake it in the oven, can make it "en papillion", wrapped in baking paper, keeps the flavor of the fish. Also, "sushi" rolls using any fresh leaves available from the garden. Envy you:)))
Every time they feed the heads to the chickens I find myself getting jealous. Fish broth is how I make bone broth( I can't cook chicken feet where I live now.
@@pbnjammy Oh, yes, you're right, thanks for correcting me, should've typed slowly! Anyhow, I love how the wrap enhances the taste of the food inside:))
Love your lifestyle...fresh catch fish, fresh vegetables from your garden, fresh eggs , and no more sitting while eating...very simple life and lovely dogs...salute.
Piscatorial support pups! They look ready for the adventure. I so envy you folks (again) for access to fresh salmon. I also applaud your no-waste methods of processing. Thank you both for this video.
Lmao you can see how excited Eric was when he was making the sushi. It looks so good! I recommend making a bowl of sushi rice, with the cured salmon eggs on top, with a bit of soy sauce and scallions. Another way would be a fresh cracked egg on top of the rice with soy sauce. If you have left over seaweed paper, shred it on top. Very yummy 😋
Absolutely love salmon patties. My kids like them with a egg and some shredded bread (kinda like a meatloaf). This makes me want to move to Alaska so bad!!
When you are filleting most fish, I was taught to leave the first side you fillet attached - ie cut the flesh on the first side you fillet as normal but only cut from the top and leave the bottom attached with the skin so you can use the fillet to prop up the fish for filleting the second side. It makes filleting the second side easier and all you have to do is cut along the skin to remove the first fillet after you completely remove the second fillet. It can sometimes be awkward removing the second fillet after the first fillet is removed.
These are my favorite videos you guys make. Catch, harvest, cook... the whole process. And you utilize the whole fish. I respect that. It's lost in this throw away culture. I do alot of the same stuff, but very different varieties of fish, animals, plants, etc. Here in Iowa. Don't comment much, but keep up the killer channel you two!
Salmon heads cooked with sour broth with some veggies. Eggs for pasta. Salmon meats with olive oil , red wine and some onions, leeks and rosemary. Smoked salmon in groceries will cost around 2k Php. I am drooling. Yummy.. thanks for the video.👍👌
Those two meals of the FRESHEST salmon patties, stir fry and then the salmon sushi with the Ikura has me craving this big time! You guys are so lucky for this to be accessible to you. Great job!!!!
TRUE "combat fishing" is when you're ONLY one arm's length away, and casting out into the river in concert. Everyone gets into the rhythm, or they don't (and get their lines cut). LOL Try bleeding them as soon as catching (cutting the gills). Also, roast the heads and pick out all the meat. The cheeks are delicious, and a lot of good/tender meat on the heads. Love the scoop method for getting all that good meat for burgers! And the sushi looks too good!
I'm living my dreams through you guys! Nothing better than harvesting your own food instead of going into a box store. I would make soup out of the salmon heads and stock out of the bones.
That was so awesome. I like how you just be yourself and enjoy nature like it is. I just subscribed to your Channel. So now you have a new friend. Hope you have some more videos coming soon your friend Raymond from Foley Alabama love to watch more videos hope to see you soon. Right now it's over a hundred degrees down here in the Barefoot Nation LOL I don't know how old this video is but I'd watch it over and over again y'all are so cool keep up the good work love y'all.
We've been getting limits the last two weeks. I've been smoking fish for two days. It is delicious 😋. Glad you guys got your limits. Sounds like a long hard day. Next time you are down let us know. We have a travel trailer you guys and the pups could stay in, and process your fish.
@@downunderfulla6001 last time I fished sockeye in BC, which was a few years ago, you had to tie a piece of pink wool or something to the hook so it was technically bait. But we would floss, which is basically snagging. I’ve just never seen a fish legally kept being snagged in the back.
We need more great video's from you guys, I wait patiently between footage. Eric you are great with that knife. Thank you for taking the time to enrich our lives.
Living here in Michigan by the tippy dam area my 38 yr old son is constantly fishing for coho king steelhead, Lake trout walleye...our freezer is constantly full..... I learned the trick when I was a girl (58 now) from my grampa to keep the fish from moving around I use what's called a coil mat.. It's one of those rough doormats.. Tan like it's made out a really rough stiff straw.. And then you just spray it out when done and it works perfectly on any kind of fish even catfish.. just a thought
We always added soda crackers, eggs, a little vinegar or lemon juice, a few herbs to our Samon patties! Any fish bones, dad always dug around our trees and buried them for fertilizer! It really makes the trees flourish and healthy! I am always hungry after watching you eat...especially healthy food like all my family farmers grew everything!!! My parents lived in Alaska for like five years, but moved back to Ohio , but we snagged Samon in upper Michigan, took the motor home, then canned some of them right away! Love the videos!
Appropriate time to watch this video: yesterday the herring-season started in the Netherlands - as you may (not) know, we eat our herring more or less raw, with some onions or pickles, a white bun.
@@earthalydelights Being very Dutch and addicted to fresh herring, I find the canned rolmops extremely disgusting - but that’s easy for me to say, with herring-stalls and -foodtrucks at every shoppingcentre.
For those wondering about the Dutch and their raw herring: it’s street food - grab the tail and let gravity do its job. Here bravely shown by BBC correspondent Anna Holligan www.bbc.com/news/av/world-europe-33166980
@@margreetanceaux3906 I can't imagine how good rollmops are fresh. Being introduced to them by my Dutch in-laws here in Aus. But, having fresh fish off the great barrier reef made into Nummus (cooked in lemon or vinegar, no heat, like rollmops). The shelf bought rollmops aren't bad. I'd be very strained to call these guys' 'cured' fish sushi though. Every sushi shop here serves their salmon raw, as it should be. Fresh is best, pulled straight from the river or sea and sliced thinly, mostly. Not that that's likely here (to get fresh fish), away from the coast for normal Aussie fish and I live too far from the salmon farms down in Tasmania. I do eat salmon often though, three times last week. I do love a feed of Kookwurst/rookwurst and sauerkraut, with some mashed potato, too. I first found that in the German beer halls back in '88 when we had the World Expo here. My grandmother on my wife's side made big clay pots of sauerkraut before she came out here in the '40s... she was a sweetheart. She made many good dishes from her homeland.
@Margreet Are you by any chance referring to that canned fermented fish "delicacy", storsrtomming(sp?). If you can get past the putrid smell, it's actually quite nice, same as a really stinky cheese, the taste is amazing. I've had it 3 times now. First two times were a complete fail, "insert gagging sounds", but the last time I got it down and it was very palatable, besides the smell of course. Cheers from Georgia, USA
What I love most about this channel is the authenticity -- just normal people acting normally. Well, that and the excellent content.

Oh Alaska was a much wilder place back then. You probably would have loved it here!

Had some King Salmon the other day--yummy. I would eat dinner at your house any day. It always looks so good!!

Alaska is such a contradiction -- it is so raw, yet so civilized. It is so isolated, yet so busy.

Being able to eat good you worked for has to be a very rewarding feeling. Not to mention knowing where you food had been every step of the way.
Try grilling the salmon collars over a wood fire, skin side down for 2-3 minutes, then turn and cook maybe 1-2 minutes more. The little bit of smoky flavor compliments the fish oils.
Plus trim off the fins as they keep the meat from laying flatter.

Great show, love you both. My favorite shows is when you go fishing. Hello, from San Antonio, Tx.
Timing is everything I was there 2019 and struck out , Love it
Well done you two! I found this channel today and I look forward to tuning in later. Salmon season is a special time of year for sure!
TRUE "combat fishing" is when you're ONLY one arm's length away, and casting out into the river in concert. Everyone gets into the rhythm, or they don't (and get their lines cut). LOL
Try bleeding them as soon as catching (cutting the gills). Also, roast the heads and pick out all the meat. The cheeks are delicious, and a lot of good/tender meat on the heads.
Love the scoop method for getting all that good meat for burgers! And the sushi looks too good!
i cant believe they wouldnt bleed from the gills, thats like fish processing 101. also wish that they fillet better so there is less meat on the bones

I love your channel. Look forward to watching all of your content. Exploring beautiful sitka now!
I'm living my dreams through you guys! Nothing better than harvesting your own food instead of going into a box store. I would make soup out of the salmon heads and stock out of the bones.
Use sinigang soup base.
What a beautiful catch. I love the scraping out of the left behind fish meat.
Yay!! Next month is going to be crazy in Kenai! Salmon summer here we come!!
That was so awesome. I like how you just be yourself and enjoy nature like it is. I just subscribed to your Channel. So now you have a new friend. Hope you have some more videos coming soon your friend Raymond from Foley Alabama love to watch more videos hope to see you soon. Right now it's over a hundred degrees down here in the Barefoot Nation LOL I don't know how old this video is but I'd watch it over and over again y'all are so cool keep up the good work love y'all.
We've been getting limits the last two weeks. I've been smoking fish for two days. It is delicious 😋. Glad you guys got your limits. Sounds like a long hard day. Next time you are down let us know. We have a travel trailer you guys and the pups could stay in, and process your fish.
Beautiful fish beautiful scenery and looks like lots of fun work
It’s crazy that snagging is legal! Beautiful fish.
Everyone has their opinion. Personally it’s just a lure without the colourful body.
Salmon come out of the ocean to spawn and don't eat so they don't generally hit lures.
@@downunderfulla6001 last time I fished sockeye in BC, which was a few years ago, you had to tie a piece of pink wool or something to the hook so it was technically bait. But we would floss, which is basically snagging. I’ve just never seen a fish legally kept being snagged in the back.
@@explorebc4x481 unfortunately I only know the regulations for my state of Australia. I do wonder how the native people caught fish throughout time
@@explorebc4x481 Only in saltwater in Alaska. Anyway you can get them is legal. Freshwater has all sorts of regulation.
I really enjoy watching your videos .. they pull out any negative energy in me 😂😂😂.. Thanks a lot. 👏👏👏😍😍😍
Hi. would love to see the trail pics from the cabin. Cheers
We need more great video's from you guys, I wait patiently between footage. Eric you are great with that knife. Thank you for taking the time to enrich our lives.
I'm curious if you will see a color difference in your egg yolks after feeding the salmon to the chickens?
Yes we get dark orange yolks :)
Living here in Michigan by the tippy dam area my 38 yr old son is constantly fishing for coho king steelhead, Lake trout walleye...our freezer is constantly full..... I learned the trick when I was a girl (58 now) from my grampa to keep the fish from moving around I use what's called a coil mat.. It's one of those rough doormats.. Tan like it's made out a really rough stiff straw.. And then you just spray it out when done and it works perfectly on any kind of fish even catfish.. just a thought
I used to snag at tippy dam back when it was legal, hello from Mio ✌🏻
@@shanewells9067 hey👍
"Not everyone's a professional sushi eater" :)
The video is so relaxing. Nice to meet you all.
When I was a kid I LOVED the salmon cheeks. You get some awesome fatty meat out of them!
EDIT: I very much still love them 😂
We always added soda crackers, eggs, a little vinegar or lemon juice, a few herbs to our Samon patties! Any fish bones, dad always dug around our trees and buried them for fertilizer! It really makes the trees flourish and healthy! I am always hungry after watching you eat...especially healthy food like all my family farmers grew everything!!!
My parents lived in Alaska for like five years, but moved back to Ohio , but we snagged Samon in upper Michigan, took the motor home, then canned some of them right away! Love the videos!
Appropriate time to watch this video: yesterday the herring-season started in the Netherlands - as you may (not) know, we eat our herring more or less raw, with some onions or pickles, a white bun.
Oooh rollmops! There was a Dutch deli near where I grew up in Australia and their rollmops were the highlight of any visit to that shopping centre.
@@earthalydelights Being very Dutch and addicted to fresh herring, I find the canned rolmops extremely disgusting - but that’s easy for me to say, with herring-stalls and -foodtrucks at every shoppingcentre.
For those wondering about the Dutch and their raw herring: it’s street food - grab the tail and let gravity do its job. Here bravely shown by BBC correspondent Anna Holligan www.bbc.com/news/av/world-europe-33166980
@@margreetanceaux3906 I can't imagine how good rollmops are fresh. Being introduced to them by my Dutch in-laws here in Aus.
But, having fresh fish off the great barrier reef made into Nummus (cooked in lemon or vinegar, no heat, like rollmops). The shelf bought rollmops aren't bad. I'd be very strained to call these guys' 'cured' fish sushi though.
Every sushi shop here serves their salmon raw, as it should be. Fresh is best, pulled straight from the river or sea and sliced thinly, mostly. Not that that's likely here (to get fresh fish), away from the coast for normal Aussie fish and I live too far from the salmon farms down in Tasmania. I do eat salmon often though, three times last week.
I do love a feed of Kookwurst/rookwurst and sauerkraut, with some mashed potato, too. I first found that in the German beer halls back in '88 when we had the World Expo here. My grandmother on my wife's side made big clay pots of sauerkraut before she came out here in the '40s... she was a sweetheart. She made many good dishes from her homeland.
@Margreet Are you by any chance referring to that canned fermented fish "delicacy", storsrtomming(sp?). If you can get past the putrid smell, it's actually quite nice, same as a really stinky cheese, the taste is amazing. I've had it 3 times now. First two times were a complete fail, "insert gagging sounds", but the last time I got it down and it was very palatable, besides the smell of course.
Cheers from Georgia, USA
It only looks like you both are catching fish alone lol. Your a fish magnet.
I would have been so nervous dragging the fish up behind that kid who didn't look like he was paying attention behind him at all 😂
❤️❤️❤️ I always get hungry watching your videos lol love it!
The salmon in Alaska are a deeper reddish orange, compared with our salmon 🍣 in Scotland, I can’t wait to come to Alaska to do some salmon fishing.
Here in Sweden our wild baltic salmon is often almost colorless, really light pink but our smaller sea trout is red/deep red to the color.
My word you guys…that meal looks fantastic !
