Keep it up Andrew your a legend man! You've inspired me over the last 4 years to go live off the grid and become a fishing guide. I just purchased a property on Quesnel lake in northern BC. Big old lake trout and huge rainbows in there. Best of luck to you in life, love your vids and knowledge you share! Much appreciated, Doug

[@suemick8709]

Thumbs up for 'fucking healthy'. An old white broad brought up in the suburbs of southern Ontario. Love your channel. So much to learn and wish I knew more but haven't given up learning. Thank you.

[@zoranzuvela9856]

Fish head soup is delicious, traditional also at Mediteranian sea, head is the most sweet part of fish, specialy bigger head predators with lots of meat aroud jaws. 🐟👌 Gratings to you and your peoples, from Croatia, Dalmatia!

[@justinpeekin1256]

Good stuff Andrew I been watching your videos from the start, haven't missed one over the years. I've hunted, fished and trapped all my life. Your videos are just great, and you are one of the favorites I follow. Good to see you posting videos again. Take care Jim

Andrew, Soooo GREAT to have you back. We usually brown the fish heads first before boiling and as you did, lot of ginger. Wow very Yummy!

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

Fish head soup is a staple of many tribes and cultures Andrew. Chinese, Jewish, First Nations and even Aboriginal Aussies claim it. I love it. Cheers Moose.

[@tomcembrowicz2519]

Never get enough! You are my favorite Canadian .

[@rdccs5122]

My aunt use to make fish head soup. It's so good. The best I've had was salmon. Nice to hear from you again Andrew, I hope all is good.

[@larry323]

Good to see you sharing videos again Andrew. Thank You

[@BigBeavrSlayer]

Hey Andrew I haven't had time to fish for anything big enough to do this with since you posted the video, but I just finished cleaning 3 pink salmon I caught, I'll finally be trying this out this weekend thanks buddy hope the fires are turning down for you up there

[@zalaluddin5185]

Yowserbosse, a stimulating meal indeed. Just finished a bowl of ravioli by the great chef boy are dee. Howdy youngs, enjoy!

[@vincecamara3168]

you know it Bro Fish head soup is a staple in our house, thumbs up for being real.

[@roberthughes3861]

Its good to see you back to making videos, hope all is well and going good for you!

[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

Soup is superfood! I do similar with grouse and ptarmigan. I boil the stink out of it, add whatever veggies I got kicking around, spices, and my secret ingredient; apple cider vinegar. I tell ya, after boiling it with potatoes for a while, and some beef stock, it turns into a very hearty stew. Just watch out for #6 pellets, unless I used the .22 and went for headshots. Happy, safe and successful hunting to you and your crew down there.

[@nathanadrian7797]

How much apple cider vinegar?

[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

Nathan Adrian roughly three tablespoons or so.

[@bennystahl7348]

Thanks friend for the nice comment!

[@TheWildYam]

That looked like a really healthy soup. Love that there is ginger in it. I bet adding some rice towards the end would be good too. I'll try your recipe someday thanks for sharing.

[@geoffclark9820]

My grandfather used to make it all the time. Fish cheeks are pretty good too

[@TheWildNorth]

+Geoff Clark yeah I love the cheeks on walleye and whitfish tripes not sure if I spelled that right

[@geoffclark9820]

TheWildNorth, looks right but I can't fucking spell either. It was a nice day in Edmonton today, hopefully you guys get this heat too and melt that snow. Lots of gease down here lately too. Happy your back Andrew!

[@jacobeksor6088]

[@pwrplnt1975]

E bon doesn't look convinced about the fishhead soup...lol!! Great Video! We catch a lot of lake trout up here, but never made fishhead soup...

[@matthewvandevalk3008]

YESSSSSS! I’ve been waiting months for you to post more videos again. Glad your back to the tube.

[@tramontane3239]

I did Tiger Muskee. What was left after cooking down were paper thin wafer like bones and the lower jaw which has the spike teeth. Upper jaw are just small holder teeth. Initially I expected to find a cranium like skull for trophy but got just the lower jaw. Also when cooking down fish skulls look for the ear bone called Otolith (Sp?), these are trophy status items often made into jewlry like Elk teeth are.

[@lrecollet]

Andrew, i enjoy all your videos. Keep them coming. My family makes fishhead soup as well. I think next time have your buddy Petrena around, you should serve her this. Keep up the great work.

[@jimf1964]

Nice. I keep meaning to do this, but I haven't got any fish lately. I'll have to make a point of it though. You may want to try putting the veggies in for only the last half an hour to hour. They'll still add to the taste, but give a little texture. Unless you don't want to have to chew at all.

[@23sklar]

Awesome man... We are gonna try that.. Thanks for sharing this aboriginal traditional soup with your viewers.. I've been watching your channel for a while now and I through I was subscribed dam it.. Lol but anyway I'm subscribed now .. So nice to see you back on the trap line bro! and we can't wait to see what you share with us next 👍

[@edwinbrunink7254]

Missed your regular vids Andrew, so now that you have posted a few again in succession, I hope that means that you are back!? Can’t wait to see the evening beaver / geese hunt you guys went on. Is there going to be a pup in the near future? Would be great to see you team up again with your own 4 legged best friend...

[@ianstyles9759]

nice soup i think i will give it a go. i have had cod cheek and was nice so why not 👍

[@TheWildNorth]

+ian styles yeah same thing pretty much

[@steersman-zv2ng]

Fkn Eh! Actually Andrew i don't like fish soup! I Love it! Never tried with fresh water fish just our local Blue Cod with only chopped white onions added. Gonna try your Wild North recipe Andrew she's a real beaut. I worked with Maoris and Pacific Island people, many say it's an insult to give someone a fish without the head intact. That's because the head meat is considered the sweetest. And Ebon you're a man after my own heart for eating that eyeball, good tucker Fkn Eh! Thanks Andrew.

[@rielbouvier]

awesome

[@Mr1234justin]

Enjoyed it. Thx

[@ontariobushcraft536]

I bought beer from a Brewery in Ontario today because it was called the wild north. AND BAM new wild north video to watch while i enjoy my Wild North Brew. Good times. You ready for spring bear Andrew?

[@TheWildNorth]

+Ontario Bushcraft ha ha that's awesome someone sent me a photo of that beer once I would love to try it. Add me on Instagram send me a private message I'll shoot you my address my Instagram is Andrew p stanley

[@druinjun5668]

totally gonna try this out with every kinda fish this summer, my grandma used to make Catfish head soup and suckerfish soup. Unfortunately i was too young to remember the taste or anything. but she fed me everything from fish to Raccoon. lol i don't think i'll try Pike though, their head just seems mostly a mouth and eyeballs lol idk maybe break it down a bit.

[@TheWildNorth]

+Dru injun I would try pike for sure real slimey I bet it's great

[@Amir_Khosrowshahi]

Respect

[@dstevenpaisley]

[@jeffkraft8029]

Thanks for the Video. Good to see you back on your channel. As far as the fishhead soup. Hmmm no thank you! Stick to just Frying the Fillets Haha :) Jeff

[@mushercdn]

Fish head soup? No problem. Detox herbal tea? That's weird! Looks like Ebun added a little more pepper than he wanted. Check out William Larkin's channel (bigland trapper). He's a native food eating machine. Thanks for the video. Glad you are back.

[@gregknight293]

.................Very interesting meal......too much of today's society has gotten away from making the most of available foods..........Glad to see you still do. What is that military rifle on the table beside you in the beginning of this vid ?.....a sporterized British .303 by chance ? Please advise......would be interested in seeing more of it in future videos...... Glad to see you and e bun back again..................

[@TheWildNorth]

+Greg Knight yes it's a Lee Enfield 1946 303 brit
