Mussels Coastal Foraging Low tide - Catch N Cook

[@jameswick2439]

Never seen so many mussels in one area! Wow!!! Love this video

[@sreysoriyaphnompenh9785]

I never seen so much either

[@goldlotus7285]

Looks like no one has been there

[@westcoastfishing5187]

Never knew Oregon had so much mussels

[@washingtonlife]

Yea I got so lucky to see this

[@Ellemenopea97]

You are supposed to remove the "beard" of the mussels before cooking them. The hairy looking part they use to attach to the rock. It isn't harmful, but that's meant to be removed as part of the cleaning/prep process.

[@washingtonlife]

Thank you so much I really appreciate the advice and comment 🙏

[@ashleytailor4015]

OMG i wish i could be out there with you and forage for all these mussels!

[@washingtonlife]

Hahaha it’s extremely fun!

[@westcoastfishing5187]

The limit is crazy amount too! 72 a person 👌

[@rhondagesler3946]

Same!

[@klcskim2568]

Me too please! Would love to have a chance to go foraging with you as well Sal

[@jameswick2439]

Maybe one day he will be a foraging guide 🙏

[@billbobby6855]

Never seen so many mussels before! Crazy how you have to walk on them because there’s so many

[@washingtonlife]

Yea I was blown away to see all of them

[@HappyOutdoorsPNW]

Love these catch and cook vids!! Thank you for sharing. I need to plan a trip to Oregon now haha

[@washingtonlife]

Yes you should plan a trip to oregon! They have so many beaches to forage off from 😃. Thank you! 🙏

[@62schmidt]

a few suggestions, 1 call the shellfish hotline to make sure it is safe to harvest . 2a prime tool is a set of groove joint pliers so you can chose all the same size. 3 try not to take too many from the same spot as it breaks down the defensive "mat" of the mussel bed. 4 wash them alot, I normally rinse them 4 or 5 times in no sand seawater before leaving the coast and bring them home in seawater to cover them, it will help with any sand they have. 5, plan on the meat to be about 1/3 of the volume or less of the inshell mussels. 6, while picking them remove any small mussels from the ones you want to take, the limit on mussels is 72 I think and if the game wardens get picky,, you could pay 272 $ per over the limit, . 7 cleaning the mussels at home using the groove joint piers works good for the barnicles. after cooking ( steaming) any mussels that do not open should be discarded as they may have been dead when you picked them. I have kept mussels in sea water for 36 hrs before with no problems

[@washingtonlife]

Wow I really appreciate you taking the time to give me these very helpful advice! Thank you so much! 🙏

[@hanniemarie]

Oooo the starfish on the coast are so pretty too! Looks so fun there

[@washingtonlife]

There’s a lot of starfish out there with lots of different colors. You find lots of baby shrimps and crabs and stuff too

[@sreysoriyaphnompenh9785]

[@jameswick2439]

Mouth watering

[@sreysoriyaphnompenh9785]

[@AshleyBanks-rz1lc]

Wow those are huge!

[@washingtonlife]

Yes they sure are

[@smfow]

How fun! I’m looking for some adventure like yours with my husband and my son . Hope I can find near me! Thank you for sharing your story!

[@washingtonlife]

Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and yes as long as you can find boulder of rocks on the coast during a very lowtide you will usually be able to find them. Good luck and cheers!

[@jconsolini6286]

Wow I might have to jump a couple of states and go over to the coast and try mussels. So how about sharing where that beach is with us. Sure looks yummmmmmmy. Thanks for sharing

[@Yakplanet_tv]

This so cool bro. Love to see how beautiful the oregon coast can be. They have albacore tuna out there and heard they taste good raw

[@washingtonlife]

Bro I need to go find some! Nothing better than eating good raw fish with some soy sauce and wasabi!!

[@rhondagesler3946]

You should of have forage for the gooseneck barnacles! They are a delicacy in Europe

[@klcskim2568]

How do you eat those gooseneck barnacles?

[@jameswick2439]

They are delicious

[@goldlotus7285]

Gooseneck barnacles are crazy expensive

[@washingtonlife]

I’m not a fan of those

[@thiengsochetra]

Wow so many mussels on the rock next to the sea and you take them to cook look so yummy. 😋😋 I hope I can find mussel when I have camping next to the sea.

[@washingtonlife]

Do you have mussels in Cambodia?

[@thiengsochetra]

@@washingtonlife Yes mussel has in Cambodia but it is not easy to find like your video. We need to buy if we want to eat.

[@goldlotus7285]

Never would imagine a place like this… how come no one harvest them?? Or is there so much that people can’t harvest it all? So many!!!

[@washingtonlife]

Yes I was shock as to see so many! Limit is 72 as well so that’s so many! All you really need if it’s just is really a dozen

[@SayNoToIslam01]

Very cool video 😎

[@washingtonlife]

Thanks for the visit! 😃👍

[@klcskim2568]

Your cooking looks so good! I never had wild mushrooms before I wonder are they any different than store bought ones?

[@jameswick2439]

They taste way better

[@goldlotus7285]

Yes usually they are way fresher obviously and the taste is much way sweeter and you can taste the ocean in them

[@washingtonlife]

Yes they are much different than store bought and taste way better!

[@joshcult745]

Collect mussels from newer smaller clusters to get the best new ones

[@washingtonlife]

Yes will do next time and thank you for the advice 🙏

[@ThisAndrewGarden]

[@juvenciocastillojr2109]

I've been wanting to try these muscles what do they taste like

[@washingtonlife]

It’s hard to explain what they taste like you will have to try them to know. They are different flavor and texture from clams and oysters 🦪

[@carrie4579]

Where is the beach located? WA or Oregon?

[@washingtonlife]

This was over in Oregon

[@Lilkohart]

What’s beach this called?

[@ESter-hj7vd]

My grandma soaked any shellfish overnight so they can poop out the sands, because if you cook it the same day ,those sands gets into the meat. Don’t taste good at all.

[@washingtonlife]

Thank you for the great advice and cheers

[@jakesmith1591]

Did not know you can forage mussels in PNW like that tbh! -TP

[@washingtonlife]

Yes it’s so much fun!

[@facefirstgoodriddance2339]

Ok... now Im hungry!

[@washingtonlife]

Lol thank you bro!

[@phule1901]

Where is this???

[@yxie555]

Is there any harm to eat the very large ones?

[@washingtonlife]

@@yxie555 not that I know of but my guess would be the older it is the more toxic things it may have?

[@steffikim4228]

What's the name this beach?

[@Cambo_Blue]

Ahh… I think I know where this at, was just there last weekend….

[@washingtonlife]

[@Lilkohart]

[@Codikas]

Usa, Oregon coast, probably somewhere around Newport. You can go to many beaches and find these mussels in Oregon, California and Washington.

[@tiboragitoy4996]

Thank you so much 🙏

[@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385]

I honestly don't like seafood other than Cod and Haddock fish, I'm curious on why people like this, I mean no badness when I ask, honestly just curious. It looks gross imo. What is the texture or taste of it?

[@washingtonlife]

They are sweet and taste just like any other clams and some part of them can be very chewy sometimes. Thank you so much for watching

[@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385]

@@washingtonlife I've never tried it at all that's why, and np.

[@washingtonlife]

@@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385 honestly they aren’t my favorite, I prefer razor clams over them any day

[@chriscruz6486]

Blue mussels?

[@washingtonlife]

They’re more like black and brown mussels

[@VAJIN679]

washington fish

[@washingtonlife]

Yes 👍

[@ma.theresatravino2862]

Are you going to pay for getting the mussels?

No las lavaste antes de cocinar debes limpiarlas con un cuchillo se raspa toda la pieza y se le saca toda impuresa o suciedad. Después se prepara.

[@washingtonlife]

Thank you 🙏
