When your leg heals from the hook, you should get a tattoo of a hook there to remind you to stay safe lol

[@tommyfacekicker]

My mother in law used to go striped fishing every summer. We used to pick up the fish heads and bones to make soup when we didn’t catch any stripers. She would always call me over when she caught them and she’d ask me how I’d like it cooked. Sometimes we’d eat it as a soup, sometimes deep fried, and even ate it as raw larb too. She passed away last year. This video reminded me of her.

[@ejSTNC]

Been busy this months as I am currently working for my self, now I’m going to start binge watch your video Taku as I have now a free time. I miss watching your videos as much as I miss my dad. Gonna go fishing again using my dad’s reels that he left me❤

I was fishing when I was about 5 yours old. A stick with a line attached with a hook and worm. Caught myself behind my right ear and had to walk across all the rocks and back to Mom and Dad. I told them I cought a REALLY big fish and showed them the hook behind my ear. Lol

Love how Jocelyn gave an honest review for the family dinner, looks delicious!!!

[@Haiongames]

I already knew what the scenario was when it had the words fisherman and nightmare in the title. At first I was thinking it would happen when you were holding the first striper and mentioned "i don't have any pliers". That's hardcore that you kept fishing with the treble in your leg. I felt that shit when you pulled it out. Glad everything turned out okay.

[@4realtime783]

I honestly thought his gear got stolen I think that's the worst scenario when I saw the hook I was like " oh that's it? " lol

[@8mtwinin]

Literally every ingredient needed to be used up Ahahaha! Love it. You have a brilliant mind for the culinary arts sir!

[@alinaaseh3679]

Taku, I met you and Jocelyn at In N Out last month and said I’d leave a comment on the next video I watched. In Colorado, we only use single hooks, mash all of our barbs, and always wear sunglasses for catch and release trout fishing. Single hooks allow you to maintain three times as much pressure than trebles on the hook point, resulting in fewer lost fish. Last year, I hooked my cousin through the lip with a Dungeon fly after hitting him in the sunglasses. The hook slid right out. On an unrelated note, I didn’t know there were striper in California. I just caught several in Delaware, where they are rare and mythical due to overfishing. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@thefishinglor6931]

The foot accident is unfortunate but makes me glad to carry around a mini bolt cutter in my bag. Thanks for sharing the surf reading skills! Saving this video to show anyone new to the surf

Taku pulling that hook out reminds of those cartoons where they are "pulling a tooth by tying it to a doorknob." Should have put kelp chili crisp on the pasta

[@edwardhewer8530]

Thanks for posting another cheery positive video and really loved the way you smashed up that dinner. I really enjoyed this. Cheers.

[@InvincibleMumu]

Fish grip and pliers are a must while lure fishing for striper

[@TPoketMonster]

bro u really deserve it 🎉 remember old vids when u rushed to skulls of fish (specially on board with lot of birds,) and didnt catch any. now u have all the luck and catchesss 😂🎉 congrats my man.

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

Oh yeah Taku Tuesday 👍👍

[@captcs0474]

Last fall I landed a 140 lb bluefin, and trying to take the hook out It swung it into my finger. My problem was that the other two hooks were still buried in the fish's jaw. The fish wasn't dead, you can imagine the situation I was in. Flopping bluefin and connected by a 6/0 4x treble, basically jumped on the fish and brained it. You're the man for pulling that hook out on your own!

[@davidamato3690]

Dude!!! I'm not a huge pasta guy, but dang, maybe one of the best things you made over the years! Very creative.

Hey Chef, that was one huge mistake going barefoot and in shorts while tossing a lure that has 2 treble hooks. I’ve surfed fish for 40+ years and I’ve always wore waders. I hope you learned this second time. Keep doing a great job!!

[@ParacordPalsandHeroes]

😂Ol' Capt Ahab limping back into action. Only person getting 'hooked by the fish' instead. Funny show Taku. Man you get me when any fish caught brings out a "first fish" celebration from ya. Later Bro, Memphis, 10🇺🇲

[@oneonecoco]

A few months ago I hit Salmon Creek and right as I was setting my backpack down, on the way up I snagged my ear to my treble hook, pierced all the way through. I yanked it out, blood everywhere, went down to the surf line and splashed handfuls of water on my ear til it stopped bleeding. Fished for an hour and was done with that sh*t. At least you were catching fish! Cheers to cold waters!

[@titogreggy]

I swear I can hear your heartbeat on the camera in the beginning as you reel in the fish

[@robertlivingston5175]

I had a hook in my finger past the barb. My father used plyers to push the hook on through my finger to cut the barb off before pulling the hook shank back out. I think about that every time I hook a fish. I do enjoy fishing.

[@skitheface4207]

I bet that mixture rolled up inside of the lasagna noodles topped with a simple béchamel and then a pile of freshly grated parm would be good too. Throw the rolls ups in a casserole dish eith that sauce and bake them for a few 🍻🤤🤙

[@Skindog1105]

LOL! I just had to run a hook through last week after attempting 2 mighty jerks w the pliers. A 12''ish Corbina went flippidy floppidy and landed right next to my foot and........ presto! That Corbina set the Lucky Craft hook nicely and got a 200lb hook up LOL

[@CLFS]

Being an Australian fisherman I recommend crushing your barbs people say you lose more fish but that's a myth as long as your fishing properly and keeping constant pressure your not going to lose a fish and by crushing the barbs if you get hooked it will just pull out effortlessly

[@mosshark]

excellent advice for saltwater fishermen. freshwater, the hooks are smaller, I've yanked those out barb and all, with minimal blood shed.

[@CLFS]

@@mosshark fresh water is fine I use barbed hooks in freshwater because like you said there small. I should have specified for salt water or larger lures to crush them but that's just my personal preference there have been a few times when I was younger becoming connected with a lure what ruined a camping trip because it was to hard to get out lesson learnt and ever since crushing barbs I have been hooked 3 more times and it's been great being able to pull it out and continue the trip

[@mythraider1]

That's what we do in the PNW in USA . Barb less hooks for Chinook salmon.

[@SenatorBluto]

First you recommend crushing the barbs and then you say if you crush the barbs the fish will pull out effortlessly. WTF? Make up your mind.

[@jimmyrecard6021]

that's because you do lose more fish, even if you keep pressure on at all times, if they shake their head too fast they can dislodge the hook pretty easily.

[@CB-qb8hj]

Dude... I don’t even know what to think of this but I understand completely! Thx for that!!

[@TheGozman100]

If you will fill water above the fish and scale it under the water the scales won’t fly all over. Then put a screen over your drain they are easy to get out of the sink.

[@Garth2011]

You could roll that fish dish into that pasta too. Possibly add a touch of corn starch/water mix to the dish thickening it just enough to stick to the pasta as well if you didn't want to roll it. I think rolling the ingredients up with the pasta would work best. P.S. If you had a scalpel or a smaller sharp knife, you could slice your leg skin to open up or butterfly at the side of the barb on the hook allowing it come out freely without ripping/tearing the tissue. It would heal better in the long run. Ahhh...the risks of fishing in shorts vs. denim pants.
