Catch, Clean & Cook. Kayak Fishing In New Zealand's Winter

[@dalebusby8298]

Your Chanel is the best I’ve ever watched on KZbin I suffer with anxiety so don’t go out and fish much myself these days but I feel like I’m there with you cheers buddy !!

[@herbjah230]

"Bet you never had a bone up there before" 😂😂 real slick there Clay

[@Flakintosh]

09:00 This was my favourite part. I couldn't stop laughing when you tossed it back into the ocean. "Piss off & don't bloody come back, okay!?" i clipped that.

[@norbertvasquez6703]

After a great harvest, it feels that much better feeding others and them truly enjoying it. Great vid, brother. Thanks for sharing.

[@ClayTallStories]

You got that right!

[@omarkhalife8501]

[@norbertvasquez6703]

Hope everything is ok, bro. Haven't heard from you in a while. This is the only way I could think of to check on you. 😊

[@ClayTallStories]

I appreciate that. All good. My content is mostly just on Patreon now, but I will have a video on KZbin next week. Thanks for caring.

[@Walsallgrower]

Hi Clayton, im from the UK and find your videos absolutely brilliant, i think the skills you have should be taught in schools and colleges, thank you very much. 🙏

[@ClayTallStories]

Wow, thanks David.

[@DR0NE_BEE]

The bone comment, followed by "sorry" made me smile and chuckle. That's so relatable though 🤭 Also the dog who needs to get off some KGs. Im new to this channel. Survival video was the first things i saw.

[@ClayTallStories]

Welcome along mate.

[@Ttvswerve0o0]

I didn’t know 80 % of New Zealand had no one living there and do you stay on the north or south of New Zealand they say not every many people live down south but idk these are all things found online can’t be trusted to be 10000% correct keep up the videos love them mate

[@ClayTallStories]

I am in the South Island. Not many people.

[@INEPOIN]

Brilliant 👍😅Loved this ha ha ha ha h a

[@GentalmanLout]

The music around 25:00 sounds like it was played by Jarrad Wright, Which would be awesome for the setting. I've only just found your vids today and I've been watching for hours. Really awesome stuff.

[@michaelpowell2140]

Hi clay I work at bws jurien bay west Oz and have Ur music playing all the time. I like the possum song and it reminded me if the great war on emus we had here. Do you reckon you could make a song about the great emu war here in aus 😅 cheers

[@ClayTallStories]

That sounds like a great topic. I would need to do some research on it. Any help would be appreciated 🙏

[@markdawsonbruce4457]

[@kaiwairua7981]

Awesome days fishing Clay. Great video. I love Kahawai, raw or cooked. Yummo

[@N1Champ]

Too right u are clay top notch bloke 👌

[@MrPup1979]

I’m not in NZ anymore but I have fond memories of smoked Kahawai, Parore and Mullet - bleeding that Kai Moana and smoking is the best way IMO. If you got left overs flake the Kahawai and try some home made fish balls or fish pie.

[@stevEN-es7pd]

Bloody dog sharks, theyre a pest here in Tasmania too! Sending love across the Tasman!

[@Del-kosto]

Hey man, you are are a tough survivor, experienced, Iwe got a lot to learn from you... got a question: Why you dont harvest the sharks, are they not good eat?

[@ClayTallStories]

Not so good eating, and they contain ammonia

[@leonardvirtue5753]

Nice 😊 🤠👌🤙🤙

[@bushcrafters3909]

Feel like I can taste the fish. Good one.

[@jaymannewell]

Here for the 100k, looking forward to the see the 1 million. For the record i was Apple from my first spit in 98 and smoked/cooked with it till 2008, since then and after my first time i am Apricot all the way. I used to raise X breed pigs on saltbush pasture, and when i changed to apricot smoked hams everyone asked after a decade noticed without me telling them and said it was better. Thanks for the content mate. Regards J.W.Newell

[@shaunmccaw2911]

What a cracking days fishing mate you did work hard for them but look at the end result looks delicious mate 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ClayTallStories]

Glad you enjoyed it mate. it was in the end very rewarding to watch everyone eat well and to be able to give fish away

[@guttavontusck4094]

[@ClayTallStories]

Great to hear!

[@nercoG]

I´ve found you a few hours ago on YT and been really enjoying your videos. You´re a great person and very good at this. I love how you develop the story over a whole video. The title is just catch, clean and cook, but it´s really a whole adventure of fun, where you also say a lot of clever things. Thank you for making this! You´ve got yourself a new fan!

[@ClayTallStories]

Welcome aboard!

happy days!

[@jacobfellows2787]

Nice

[@Dave.2023]

When cutting wood for smoking fish I think you would get a small amount of chain bar oil in the saw dust. Just something to think about

[@ClayTallStories]

For this very reason I run the bar dry.

[@Dhamere]

I'm still waiting for you to do survival again like in the sea or in the forest, from there I learned a lot about how to make things that are needed in the wild.

[@ClayTallStories]

Not too far away. The winter is going to make it challenging as can only live mostly off animals or fish.

[@adamcopeland773]

excellent vid, loving all the content. keep up the good work 😉

[@vincemcmanaway1558]

As always great vlog matey cheers

[@jacobfellows2787]

Top stuff bro. Cheers. 👍

[@riptide4776]

Bloody good vid, just what I needed, thanks Clay ❤😊

[@jacobfellows2787]

Clay your a good man 💯 ❤

[@downunderdan]

As long as you kept some fish for Clay

[@markrobinson9288]

Great video buddy keep them coming 👍

[@Skelloter]

Great video as usual mate, I have a question though - is the fish served room temperature or do you reheat it? If reheated, what's the method?

[@ClayTallStories]

Reheat in an oven wrapped in tin foil if the fish has already been cooked. 170degr.

[@gobacktorussia]

I love your videos! When you were making the sawdust, does any chain old end up in the sawdust? Do you run the chain dry?

[@ClayTallStories]

Run it dry

[@taranscott155]

Sharing is caring 😊 I often drop rabbits and pheasants off to some of the older folks in my village. They appreciate the food in these hard times, and they know how to handle it. I offered some to younger folks but they turned their noses up at it - the modern generation hasn't got a good handle on food, where it comes from, and how it becomes a meal... Great video - thanks 😊

[@atstar8136]

How come you don't remove the scale for the fish fillet you smoke? I'm curious.

[@ClayTallStories]

stops it sticking to the grill

[@russelljenkins4660]

Those spotted dog fish aren’t bad eating mate Just don’t want to eat too many as I think they’re a bit high in a mercury count

[@markdawsonbruce4457]

It's been 3 weeks since your last post you good bastard, are you still above ground❤

[@ClayTallStories]

Currently on a mission mate

[@juditharichards3394]

Morning Mr. Clay, It’s Sunday July 16,2023 and the time is4:42 am. I am sitting at the table, old man is in his bed, recliner chair watching the boob tube. Still recovering from working in the yard a couple of days ago. I think I have been having mimi strokes; not completely sure; I haven’t mentioned it anyone but you at all. I haven’t even said the words out loud yet; and I don’t plan to either. Yeah, things are crazy here now no more gasoline, for cars, stoves,furnaces that idiot said everything has to be electric ⚡️, or wind powered. He even threatened the American people that he would have all gas lines to your house, place of business you get the drift. I the that Civil War, needs to be fought again; must be a sign of the times. ❤you Mr. Clay ! I remember my Grandma telling me when I was a little girl maybe 4years old. I would stand behind her, she was sitting in evening an old big chair. We spent many hours each

[@MegaMarclar]

As my uncle would say.... "Dogon, DOG-ON"

[@Avi-dq2sh]

You alright mate? I’m getting worried about you since you haven’t posted in 3 weeks. Hope all is well

Just home today after another mission close to home. All good mate.

Where can I get the orange jig with two hooks you're using

[@ClayTallStories]

search Junkie Jigs on Facebook. The Orange one is the Falcor.

[@JpRules123]

@@ClayTallStories Thanks, looks like an awesome jig. Sadly they dont seem to ship to Canada.

[@lifesahobby]

Great set up man , experience is key to the setup you use . I used to kayak slot , but bringing fishing gear was always outside my feeling of safety . I preferred just going out and scaring fish to death by stealth .

[@ClayTallStories]

plenty of fish in Ireland :)

Use your car window to sharpen your knifes. It works a treat!
