BEST SMOKED FISH IN THE RIVER Whiskey Maple Glazed Steelhead

[@akaratechop]

Thanks for letting me try the food Taku. If you guys think it looked good, you should have tasted it. Amazing food and amazing person. Tastes just as good as it looks in the videos.

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Thanks man, glad you got to try some!

[@User5260jo]

Mouth-watering food! Thanks, Taku!!! That was great food and good fun. Wonderful!

[@Гена-ю9д]

Super fishing🎣 🐟👍

[@racerex340]

Man, I love Nick's energy and attitude! Nothing better than going out fishing with friends that get super stoked and are as genuinely happy to be there as you are.

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Hypeman energy💪

[@Benjamin-tl8pn]

Yeah dude amazing

[@arisespeleta9194]

These collabs are so good to watch. Just homies fishing, catching, cooking, and having a great time.

[@mikezaragoza4473]

THATS WHAT ITS ABOUT CHILLING N EATING WITH FRIENDS!

[@sfckrbec]

That knifework was beautiful, thanks for letting us watch.

[@williamowings6857]

I caught the flu and been watching your videos to beat the boredom. I fell a sleep during one and woke up when you were processing your catch. I could literally hear how sharp and well made your knife was in my sleep. Woke up hungry. My wife went and got some Tilapia for me. My stomach is still sensitive. Light fish helps me recover. Love that woman. She's good to me. I am going to try some of your recipes when I well enough to go fishing. Thanks for sharing.

[@TommyVs33]

liked it since the whole crew caught a fish. good vibes baby!

[@fonzmendez6917]

This content fills the void in my soul.

[@---zg7ex]

wow that beginning intro to open coke glass is epic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@lukesingh87]

Nick is such a vibe😂😂😂😂

[@brigieschliesman9163]

idk why but I love Ensei

[@DRMREM1]

Meeting Taku while fishing and trying his food….that would make my day. Keep up the great content Taku!!!

[@mamababylifestylevids4416]

So many other fishing channels fish at the same locations and do not mix up the cooking after. It is great how you mix up your content with new locations and a variety of meals each time. Your plating is also very creative and looks great every time! Keep up the great content!

[@ABVang]

Damn. Watching this makes me really want to meet Taku in real life. Such a humble and loving person!

[@chakksriloy1708]

Dude he is. I ran into him and he socialized with me without being like “ew don’t don’t talk to me” plus, I was too flustered to ask him anything because I didn’t want to annoy him. 😂🤣

[@teerycruz8025]

You a groupie Lmmfao

[@NickFish007]

Man that was special! You're a good friend Taku thank you

[@tannerfreeman5817]

I would like to personally thank you Taku as you taught me how to be not only a better cook but a better fisherman of all fish species. You are by far the best catch, clean and cook channel. I thank you for that as you made me be able to make others delighted with my meals. - Tanner F

[@41BTH]

Absolutely the best to see Nick's reaction on landing his first Steelhead. Great content. Really nice to see a group of friends enjoying the river. Makes me think of my youth and My River Buddies. You Rock Taku.

[@PsychoticWolfie]

Lol seeing Nick get his first Steelhead after trying so hard so many times is great. Definitely well earned and deserved. Also nice butterfly-bottle-opener skills!

[@Crytica.]

The way you sliced those cherry tomatoes blew my absolute mind! Thanks for the great content Taku, keep on living the life man!

[@kennygee6627]

I had to go back and look… Yes, that was pretty awesome 🤟🏽 A lot to learn from Taku 👍🏽👍🏽

[@xmozzazx]

"Next level stuff here guys." Is exactly why I am watching, that is amazing!

[@OutdoorChefLife]

🙏

[@phengvang1441]

That’s humanity right there sharing your food with everyone in sight.

[@BroTortuga]

The vibes this video are immaculate, love how all the bois caught something ❤️

[@stormydazeASMR]

Oh man, that final product looked absolutely delectable! My mouth was watering! Great video Taku! Congrats on everyone getting a fish!

[@dayabloom9634]

21:47 it really looks like you’re not just adding water into it lol, thanks for you’re videos man atmosphere is so cool 👍

[@MCorp66]

That was smooth 😂 the beginning 👏

[@saltyjoesfishing460]

Right! That camera shadow was on point bro!

[@OutdoorChefLife]

😉

[@thedarksideoftheforce6658]

It's just a butterfly knife man. Lol. I learned that at 8. Not difficult. Would you like me to show you how to do it?

[@Vexatedcanicus]

​@@thedarksideoftheforce6658 Whoa buddy, you're too cool, we get it. Dial it down a bit so we can all get the chicks

[@MrSaljstn]

Thank you for picking up after yourself the bottle cap is symbolic to many that watch to do the same. It’s the little changes that change the world

[@melanieyoung8881]

Sooo happy you made us a new video. It’s like a Netflix show. Always looking forward to you and Jocelyn and dang that looks sooo delicious 🤤

[@williamwinsor7376]

When I first moved to the south or coast I got the steelhead salmon fishing disease really bad and I used to hear the old timers talk about all the catching they did and then it was my turn to become one of the good old boys that constantly caught fish. Now I’m the old timer with no energy or balance to fish. It’s your turn now so enjoy it. The last fish I hooked I gave to a friend to fight and enjoyed harassing him as he fought it.

[@jamiecope5382]

One of the best fishing videos I have ever watched. Blessings to all of you up there in the bay.

[@DanielW.91]

Talk about a flex with the balisong 😂 Nice skills, dude! I really enjoy your channel. I have extremely little foraging/fishing experience, but because of you video's I have been getting out there more. Thank you for your content!

[@stevewilliams7852]

Reminds me when I was young and my family would go with grandpa, grandma and all of my aunts uncles and cousins and would meet on the San Juaquin river around Gustine to camp and fish for catfish in the day and go coon hunting at night. We learned to shoot, fish and live in the outdoors. It was one of the best times of my life.

[@BenjieKimFishing]

As usual, another beautiful video Taku thank you so much. I can't imagine how much work it must be to get every camera angle, lug all the equipment, all while trying to focus on getting on the fish. Great vibes with good people, amazing food, all while showcasing your expertise. My day gets a little bit better every time I get to watch all of you slaying it up there!

[@ThydaCookingTV]

Hello good morning from Cambodia Taku! Happy Wednesday !

[@gus473]

🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭 ✌🏼😎

[@chadveez4908]

You're so wholesome man love the content. Food fishing and friends is what is about

[@nomadhomad3685]

Nothing like that first steelhead fight on light tackle 🔥congrats to Nick!

[@SamSulekShortss]

Just got out of work in time for TAKU TUESDAY BABY!!!!!!

[@THX-vb8yz]

This one video I'm saving for later.... reproduce that salad and dressing. WOW.

[@DanielLipari]

Love how you are always drinking some kind of good craft beer.

[@JigginwithG]

Hell ya! Just Smoked my first steelhead this weekend was delicious 😋🐟🎣

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Noice🙌

[@lukeweeks5400]

A bunch of legends. Congrats Nick and shoutout Walter!

[@brt124]

Just beautiful... ain't nothing like a successful day when all the homies catch! "NO HEROES!" is what we call it... in relation to "Zero the Hero"

[@jeremymaccarthy1180]

God, I love this channel. Taku is always so positive, enthusiastic and friendly. Not to mention creative and generous! Excellent video. Ty. Taku Tuesday baby!

[@jamesrank8983]

Smooth on the switch blade bottle opener 👌

[@ozzleoni6609]

The balisong makes for a good impact club for bonking.. or opening beer bottles. Good show!

[@DanielTorres-iq3mz]

Love the fact that this video demonstrates the open kindness of a fisherman.

[@siamdejrudee6058]

Taku with the bottle opening skillz xD

[@jcmacias9631]

Awesome smoke fish hell yeah sounds delicious. Nick With the happy dance I like that

[@swivels]

Balisong knives are awesome! Such a fun hobby that has a "fidget spinner" effect.

[@jimm4533]

Love it when others get to experience your great talent like the “bat ray chicharonnes“ video.

[@lizzzp]

man, this video was amazing to watch! chill vibes and i have never seen outside food look that good, from the smoked salmon to the salad. great job👏🏽

[@xenobis81]

Taku-sama the smoked trout looked absolutely amazing, brother! You make me want to go out fishing and try to duplicate your efforts. That salad dressing with smoked herring sounds spectacular and looked even more so. Great job all around!

[@zomthegreat3279]

We all need a taku as a fishing buddy so they can whip up such an awesome meal during fishing trips

[@NorCalFishermen]

i love your steelhead vids but whats cool is how you can enjoy the day with your youtuber buddys all catch fish and all have footage but then each one of your vids are a different perspective of the day! keep killin it boys!

[@tropa1481]

best relaxing day for me is tuesday i get to see this wonderful chef Taku with Jocelyn or the group in action with catch and cook.

[@savageortiz6401]

So happy you all got a fish. That was so awesome. Was literally clapping for Entei.

[@lulual6350]

I would say Taku got the best cooking channel. Of course one of the best fishing channel too but we all knew that :)

[@kiwikible8899]

BRO taku with the flip bottle opener, i like him like flexing everything he can do at the beginning, like calisthenics

[@mylife4137]

Your style and flavors are so different than most Americans man what a treat! You made a 200 dollar plate creekside and shared it with friends! Thats what's it is about.

[@funsky77]

Looks amazing. Taku can really make a killing on a side shuffle, make pop.up restaurants with these items on the menu!

[@LargoRicardo]

At this point, running into Taku in the middle of a catch and cook is fully on my bucket list

[@greghelton4668]

For what it’s worth, I soak the wood chips in water, then place the damp chips on aluminum foil, and then put the foil on top of the coals. One gets a cooler smoke that lasts longer and therefore imparts more flavor.

[@phiology1983]

Bro I love you. Watching your videos are peaceful therapeutic

[@mukmusicdiary]

I absolutely LOVE these Collab's!!! They make me so happy, it's so fun to watch. Keep it up everyone :)

[@daniellemiller8073]

THe skill you have with the butterfly knife(that's really a bottle opener) was so flipping smooth!

[@kevinluong6364]

Kind hearted taku offering food for everyone

[@reelin_it_with_jake]

Steelhead killa! Gangsta with the butterfly bottle opener 😳 😆!

[@raiderraider84]

The Title is an absolute 10/10

[@Jaimitoeloso]

Great job Taku, really great job. From one chef to another, these videos are why I subscribed to your channel. Will be buying some of your merch. You and Jocelyne take care, all the best mate.

[@tylerlane5505]

favorite channel on youtube; keep up the good work Taku

[@4shorefishing779]

So much fun meeting subscribers in the wild!

[@Burrfection]

did Taku just whip a butterfly like it was nothing?

[@brodiwheeler7583]

Whilst sippin on a Mexican Coke. 🙅🏼‍♂️

[@ron.hertzberg]

Bottle opener

[@chronicawareness9986]

damn thats such a cool idea smoking it on the river like that..i love it.. always love your videos you always come up with the coolest stuff

[@betzaidavazquez5579]

Thanks for video Taku. Nice collabs, different fishing spots, and delicious recipes. Always keeping it simple and real, Love it 😍🎣👍

[@angielundboater]

Finally! I see dill used on fish! I only eat my fish with dill on it. 💪🏻❤️

[@napoleonwilkie4985]

Team efforts are always good experiences

Tu equipo de pesca es fantástico, capturaste hermosos peces. ¡Felicitaciones, eres un pescador muy exitoso! Me encantó el video.👍🎣🥰 Dios los bendiga siempre y buena pesca!

[@omarchirinos5010]

Great video Taku. Enjoying the videos way across the states in South Carolina.

[@moblack5883]

Top notch quality content. I’ve been hooked for like 2 months since finding your channel.

[@StevenDelCastillo]

Such a wholesome video. Thanks a lot Taku!

[@fredkimmark]

Salad looks super pleasing… thanks for the vid taku!!!

[@kakrot3]

Fishing with the boys! Doesn't get any better.

[@made-for-this]

Thanks for another feel good episode (and the earlier mushroom vids too)

[@LifeMotivations64]

Love Nick's energy lol. It's like watching me got my first salmon. Good job guys 😁

[@jackburton6085]

Nice one Taku, and nice one Nick, glad you got one. Food looks excellent as usual! ✌️❤️🍻🖖

[@Thebigmilkfish]

Frisée lettuce is my favorite for salads. Excellent choice chef!

[@dogface3215]

Wow what a meal, and great fishing. If you soak the wood chips in the river for a few minutes, much easier to use. More smoke less flame.

[@cjackfly]

Otaku gives new meaning to, "Smoke on the Water..." Fire in that guy. 😄

[@martyphillips2175]

Dude 2 videos in one week amazing keep them coming taku

[@McShag420]

Oh man, bringin out the Suntory! I don't even really like whiskey, but I love that stuff! Great vid as always.

[@kye2090]

Dang salmon season is almost upon us. Can't wait to prep a couple hundred strip and jars love your content man. Been subbed for years

[@sungsam3299]

Thanks for keeping the banks clean.

[@thomasflores7817]

“Don’t worry guys it’s just a bottle opener… hehe” This dude the uncle Iroh of fishing 😂

[@BigHeinen]

The trick to adding the wood chips is to soak them in water for an hour or so prior to adding them to the coals. I think it would be awesome to soak them in the river water that the fish was living in - WOW!

[@johnfishingclown6415]

liked the video! very creative, Smoked Steelhead on the river, thanks for sharing Outdoor Chef Taku!

[@lxXFearXxl]

was gonna jokingly comment about the cap the first 20 seconds, but he's got it covered lol. good man

[@dastarfishpat15]

Thank you taku for uploading on my break ! 😁 watching this whole vid while I have the hour to myself & congrats to Nick 🎉 on the steelhead ! i would of been hollering for 3 mins straight 😂

[@noreloliva8691]

Now I get to watch it on my train ride home.

[@itsmemaaaark]

Such a rad balisong bottle opener!

[@askal857]

Neat trick with the tomatoes! When I used to work garmo, I would take 2 deli cup lids and put my tomatoes in betwen and cut it in half that way lol
