Catch and Cook of a Lifetime on a Death Defying Cliff

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Appreciating the moment is easily forgotten but easy to do when you look at all the things you have❤ glad the baby is healthy! Thanks for trying the kelp chili crisp and supporting. You paved the way for the rest of us in the bay💯

[@TiMsDC5]

Truuuuu I found all y'all through this channel and I love all the content you guys push out!

[@johnavery9764]

Amen.

[@elmclovin1]

Been watching both of you for sometime now. I enjoy your chanals very much. Maybe when I move to Vietnam in 7 months you 2 can come visit and do some content thier.

[@jmgmusic1979]

Matt...I truly enjoy watching both you and Taku do your catch and cooks. Y'all's content is just so soothing and relaxing to watch. Sending both of you love and best wishes from the Lone Star State. My wife and I are planning a trip next year to San Francisco. It would be so awesome to hang out with the both of you and maybe you guys can take me out to do some fishing together. That would be freaking AWESOME!!! Congrats on your newborn daughter, Matt. Much love from Josh n Holiday!

[@reymysterio8866]

Man this is like when Kobe and Michael Jordan first met, 2 legends! Love both channels !

[@ItGetsReelFishing]

Had me on the "EDGE" of my seat watching you scale that cliff. Awesome catch Matts and superb content as usual.

[@tamalpias]

Matts congratulations on your healthy new addition. You take calculated risks to produce these videos but please recalculate how much risk you should take going forward so that you can be around to watch them all grow.

[@rf5381]

Poseidon's been subbed since like 15k so he's good.

[@marke.1021]

Should you get some "spare" time add another rebar spike so can get closer to s slippery spot, what rebar is $5-10 ? same us some worry also and let gear down on rope then follow as hands free, same on way up. Love your videos and congrats on addition to your family.

[@cringealert9320]

Bro thank you so much, about 2 years ago I came across your vids. They inspired me to activate that fisherman inside of me that I didn’t know was even in me. Since then I have gotten off my rear end and have been fishing my heart out and actually have been catching a ton of freshwater fish. It has been like a new reason to look forward to things again ! Thank you so much for inspiring me, I think fishing will be a part of me for the rest of my life now 🎉

[@heruhcanedean]

Keep on fishing. Tight lines my friend.

[@tho464]

Every year I look forward to the different fishing and crabbing seasons. Stay strong and keep on fishin’. 🎣

[@Rottenkirsche13]

Same here! I found him and outdoor chef and been wanting to go fishing no one wanted to not even my ex of 7 years. But after the recent break up that’s all I do and it’s helps me a lot with stress in everyday life and those demons.

[@mikeyfishin]

Yep you’re toast. Got the bug now hehehe. Tight lines!!!

[@susankoonce8397]

I totally love your excitement an congratulations on your new baby girl. I also know what you mean and getting all emotional about your kids is so understanding . Enjoy them now as they get older and pull away it harder on the parents than the kids that is for sure. Thanks for sharing your videos. My boyfriend and I totally enjoy them.

[@SteveFromWyoming]

You are right on about the youngsters in the family. Appreciate every moment you can with them. At 68 and having lost a son a few years back, I can only think of the memorable times we had together. On a happier note the Ling looked delicious, thanks for taking us along.

[@rbd6661]

Your creativity for fishing keeps your content so much fun to watch. Best KZbinr alive.

[@adamw8469]

We want Matts to stay alive! Maybe some simple trout fishing in a mountain lake? But damn that crispy Lingcod looks incredible… needs Avocado!

[@tommyska40]

Minute 17...I know exactly how that feels. I have a nine and seven year old. I wish I could spend more time with them even when I'm with them. The present may be hard at times, but even those moments become precious once they pass. Savoring and enjoying every single moment with the kids is the best you can do. Congrats on your daughter's birth and I'm sure the future holds many great memories for your family. God bless.

[@evaninja451]

This episode had it all man, you're not only a fisher but inventor and a Dad and you have so much to be proud for. I love that you're supporting OCL as well. Stay safe you've got a lot to live for 🙏

[@BearPapa49]

Keep on fishing . Wow . You took this to another level with technology. But also raising the bar with risk taking with your climbing . Be carful . I’m a long time follower of yours . I want to continue to watch so don’t get hurt . Take care Roy

Congrats on your new little one! You could not have described what it feels like as they get older any better. My two daughters are 26 and 22 doin their own thing and doing well. You will transition from the day to day worries and concerns of parents with smaller kids to truly having companions and family that you enjoy as they grow into functioning adults.

First he takes his life into his hands with the cliff, then goes and does it again by taking the footage home to his wife. Not sure which was more dangerous.😬😆 Taku’s chilli paste looks fantastic btw! Going to be picking some up myself.

Because of that I have hours of of my dad and my son on our boat he passed away this man but I am extremely grateful I have all those hours of footage. My son was only two and a half and he can still pick out Papa out of a photo and it makes me happy that he also will have those memories forever. As far as being emotional it just shows your a good dad! God bless!

I want you to know that I watched the entire video without fast forwarding…that was the hardest thing I’ve done all day! I think you should submit this video in a film festival, it was that well done. I like how you respected the Ling Cod and I like the respect you have for the time that you have with your children, they grow up way too fast. I wish you much love and much blessings.

It is hard not getting caught up in looking back at how great those moments were, and you lose the "now". I have 10 year and 8 year old girls, and I love thinking about how sweet and innocent they were at infant to now. I tried to live in the moment and appreciate it, but sometimes I catch myself looking back as if it was the peak of goodness. But every day and every stage is beautiful. I love that you expressed your appreciation of those perfect moments in life. GOOD JOB!

This is what I call dedication!!!..... I love fishing but I'm NOT going to risk my life for it!!! Amazing adventure, thank you for sharing it with us!!!..... YOU keep on doing it so 'I' don't have to!!!... Balls of steel dude!!! Edited to add: I didn't know where this video was going , as I commented half way through, but what you said about your kids is more true than you know.... I'm an old man, my only child is grown up married and has gifted me two beautiful granddaughters now 11&12yrs. old.... It seems like only yesterday that my own baby was born, I blinked and suddenly she's all grown up and a mother, now the next time I blink my grandbabies will be grown and maybe mothers also, or who knows, maybe I won't be around for that; but the moral of this is.... You are right, enjoy those moments with your kids, they come and go all too quickly and in the end those memories are all you will take with you to the 'other side'....Thank you for sharing that with us also, as for you getting emotional, that tells me YOU get it....Love to you and your family.......

[@alexmendoza1363]

It’s definitely bitter sweet. I have those moments probably once or twice a week. My daughter is 6 and my son is 2 and it’s just crazy to know that they definitely grow up fast.! I definitely tear up when these moments happen so it’s okay to cry because it’s tears of happiness that you get to be the lucky one to raise them and nurture them the absolute best you can and see them become more independent while doing so.! Thanks for always making videos so inspiring and motivating.!

[@joecorrero6763]

May our Lord give you a long life for you to enjoy your grandchildren growing up, its a hard thing to " let go " of your children.

Clarified butter or ghee. Olive oil has a low smoke point. On the other subject of children. You're right about growing up fast. I've got 3 boys fully grown now. My 8 year old son would chase me down the street on his bicycle when I would leave for work. He didn't want me to leave. Tear your heart. I also remember #2 moment when he was 13 and we both sprinted across a busy road and he grabbed my hand. I remember thinking that it would be the last time he would hold my hand in that way. Seems like yesterday. I grew up in San Diego. Got to fish from Point Loma to Lake Murray. Love your channel bro. Take care on those cliffs.

[@muleasfy1862]

Appreciated the little advice about the fleeting moments. Needed to hear that 💜

[@communityspread]

Before I had kids a mom I know said, "Kids just break your heart." I asked her what she meant and she talked about how they were just always growing away from you. I didn't get it at the time, but now that my girls are closing in on twenty, I've understood what she was saying so many times over. Breaks your heart and fills it of any afternoon.

[@peterfuchs4596]

Feel you bro. And 50/50 no matter how hard you try. I'm batting .3 with my 3. Wasn't for lack of trying and hurtful seeing a loved kid just keep taking wrong turns. Took me 25 years to understand I should shed the guilt and be happy they are alive and not in jail or sick. A lot of parents deal with way worse and make it thru. Can't blame anyone but if you tried your best you take that.
