Mushroom Hunting Catch and Cook (80lbs Found!)

Forrest Galante goes mushroom hunting for golden chanterelle near Santa Barbara, California. This is a rare event in Southern California and I'm always very excited when it happens! We made a delicious, gourmet wild mushroom pasta meal and it was incredible!

As a chef and mushroom forager, I really enjoyed this segment. Having made this exact dish before, you did good boys.

[@6catsinacoat781]

Please sir, Go on the Unsubscribe podcast and drop some knowledge on the boys. We need this.

[@shaunkelley4131]

The new generations Steve Irwin. Happy to ride along on this adventure.

[@dbbentertainment8134]

Galante + Shroom hunting = instant click. simple maths.

[@MontTheBeatMaker]

I'm from southern IL & i'd love nothing more than to bowfish for the first time with forrest & crew

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- 2:40 THANK YOU. I always tell people, "I love you but *DO NOT* DO a balloon release when our love ones pass away && for EVERY anniversary after, they normally end up chocked around s sea turtle." It is something more people need to raise awareness to. 🙏🏽 Бог благословил

[@SH4GN457Y]

Seeing you guys so excited over this made me so happy, Im glad to see you had a great time

[@tokyotaylor]

Literally asked for more cooking vids last week and then Forrest delivers! Love it bro

[@baileyhead9261]

Forrest Galante is my favorite super hero.

[@DJFourie]

I freakin love this channel. Thanks Forrest

[@temoorta4864]

amanita muscaria (mario mushroom) kinda basic but they grow everywhere out here by the west coast and they're just always cool to see during the rainy season.

[@ivan6139]

Forrest really took eating like a king literally ❤

[@ohhVrtx]

Would definitely be the trip of a lifetime! Love your content man and what you stand for!

[@ethan5.56]

I just found 3 pounds or so of Morrell mushrooms this afternoon here in Arkansas. Great video as always

[@trav550]

Watching your videos makes me want to go back to school. When I in elementary all I ever wanted to do was be like Steve Irwin but I think my young heart was too heartbroken when he passed so I unfortunately lost interest. Here I am at 24 and you’ve relit that fire. Keep doing what you’re doing Forrest!

[@RER2477]

I love your channel and the pod so much, an adventure with you would be one of the highlights of my life!

[@Lugen]

Calm down

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- 11:47 That was so incredibly.. a nice big "I'm better than you" kinda comment.

[@micahgrove4518]

That's awesome, the most I've ever got in a patch was just over ten pounds it felt like we would never get through them. I've still got those chanterelles in the freezer from last fall and have never tried them with pasta. Also, you're very luck to have people to show you where to find them!

[@Spriggan6000]

Been following you for years and I’m still so excited to see any new content with you thank god you made a KZbin channel lol

[@Robert-FishingGuy]

Amazing video, makes me want to learn more about mushroom foraging.

[@samfling5907]

I have never been bow fishing. I would consider that a highlight of my year to bow fish with you.

[@NightmaresGirl]

Been subbed, liked, and commenting!

[@shades9723]

I’m down. Picked many mushrooms, love fishing. Love foraging, and never get enough time for it. Pick me Forrest! I can promise more than a few good stories. Been a fan forever! But.. how does B.T.G not go on your next adventure?!

[@pentakacle]

Amazing! I would love to try that dish in that setting! Not the version you would buy in a restaurant!

[@peterman8848]

I liked and subscribed, have a bow, live in Santa barbara, have hung out with you before, and would love to go bow fishing! Let's gooooooo! Also, garrick is a G! Love that dude, can we please have more videos with garrick in them? He's the best

[@chaysereis1637]

I saw you in Extinct and alive it said you were looking for the ivory billed woodpecker!

[@palmarolavlklingholm9684]

I have never seen a chantarelle a third that size here in Norway. But here we are lucky enough that the only mushroom that can be mistaken for the chantarelle is one called false Chantarelle. And it is also edible.

[@axlholmes]

I am a big spearo and fisherman. Have always wanted to bowfish!!. Sick vid too

[@peterman8848]

More videos with garrick in them! That dude is the best! You just know he's got some more funny quips in him.

[@mccari09]

I totally thought he said "the magic kind" when he had that magic mind drink... was thinking how can he film a tv show and be trippin' balls 😂

[@VanceMoriarty]

That looks so good

[@Phuskooz]

I already got my bowfishing rig dialed in! Let’s go!!

[@treetrunk8794]

Bow fishing sounds amazing.

[@KHeinz_57]

Hope you’re at animalcon again this year!!!

[@dansage8937]

My dad and I are such big fans of Forrest, would love for him to be able to go bow fishing with you guys. We’re in Illinois too🤞

[@Snakeyess]

[@jenniferg8460]

My aunt lives in Monticeto, I had no idea Chantelle grew on the west coast!

[@dakotamiller6326]

Been planning on buying a mushroom book for Illinois and and Wisconsin since we are always hiking and would be awesome to forage for our own mushrooms. Last we were up north hiking by Lake Superior I found so many thimble berries made for such a great little snack mid hike wish I had grabbed some in a tub for dessert that night

[@mheberer]

Perfect I'm from Illinois so i can just meet ya for the bow trip

[@brodiot326]

Boat fishing with the Broologist himself! Sign me up

[@tristanburke456]

Man a fishing trip sounds amazing rn

[@johnfkennedy416]

Honestly that would be so cool if you researched to see if Mountain lions still exist in Upsate Ny / New England

[@F4834N]

I was not expecting to get angry but I'm hungry. That dish looked delicious 🤤

[@TheDadFaxs]

Whoever wins that trip with Forrest will be one lucky person. Good luck everyone 😊

[@FATBOYCANFISH]

Love the videos man. I was looking into bow fishing recently but the bow setups are like $400 at fleet farm!!

[@funonvancouverisland]

Love picking mushrooms here would love to give it a go there

[@RunicRaptor]

Oh, i know that species in my country are called "finferli"

[@marcinp9769]

Nice!!!

[@bradmitchell3765]

My favorites are morels and giant puffballs. Giant puffballs can be fried like steak and, if done right, are delicious.

[@infin1ty850]

I have always been absolutely fascinated my mycology

[@micheallee5655]

Fishing is the BEST!

[@circasurviver3]

What I would do to mushroom hunt with Forrest! He is my favotire biologist, and mushrooms are my favorite 😍

[@thewolfsbane8110]

Man that much money for that much mushrooms? I might have to get in on the gathering. Awesome video as always!

[@CanadianFitted]

As a Canadian I always find mushrooms fascinating because for everyone great one there is a close mimic that basically wants to kill you and grow on you 😂😂 Great video as always brother

[@MrDirtDive]

Oh a bow fishing trip would be amazing 😮

[@robbyschannel9258]

Great video. Might even try the mushrooms. Never been a fan but had some Afghani soup with some type of mushroom. Was great for someone who won't eat anything with mushrooms. Tho I didn't eat the mushrooms. Dont eat them but i onow many places in Washington that have amenities, mario mushrooms.

[@jurassicroom7673]

Much better than the last video.
