Always looking forward to Taku Tuesday.

[@freedive2370]

Braddah Taku, u r da man 😋🤙🏼

[@chuckrichards3501]

That is great! Congratulations. I used to fish sturgeon frequently down there in the 80s. Only caught 2 keepers. One was 44lbs right in the middle of the moth ball fleet. Second one was 32lbs caught at the tip of tiburon. Last time I fished the fleet area in the late 80s early 90s we caught a ton of 12-14" fish. They had just begun the planting program. Those fish are the oversized ones now. Eta; the spinal cord is bitter. We always removed it.

[@kahalamorse8910]

Oysters with Tarter sauce is great too mayo, mustard, garlic, and relish! Yummos!🦪😋🤙

Next is catching a sturgeon in your kayak. It's really fun when you hook up. Release your anchor and go for a ride lol

i saw taku cut the sandwich into rectangles instead of triangles and went “TAKU, NOOO” lmao

[@permaban9311]

I enjoyed this one, fellas!

[@KiwiCanadian11]

What an amazing fish!!

[@Sethonious]

Fish have a tendency to shrink when the warden measures. Good call on the release.

[@mahadevang2291]

Nice work

[@kickinitwithkaren]

That was a damn big fish and the sandwich looked delicious!!!!!!

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Your adventures are so awesome. This was great. Cheers! #TakuTuesday ✌️

Sturgeon spinal cord and guts in a simple stir fry is very good 👍

[@benjaminlaster3773]

nice fish Taku. I love sturgeon. Looks weird, tastes amazing.

[@Waaaaa2751]

Beautiful job bro

[@ComputerGuyAndy]

A beautiful morning with the sturgeon general.

[@justinnguyen4233]

Man i love the support while you were reeling the big boy in, felt like they boys hyping you up for a new PR in the gym LOL

[@gerberlee3170]

Spinal cord is very good but very chewy.. we had to BBQ it and some hmong dry pepper' fish sauce and lime is all we need

[@saltyspirateden]

about 82 or 83 a buddy and I went out in the bay in a 10ft aluminum jonboat from BlackPoint, we're out in mebbe 3ft of water and alla sudden the boat starts bouncing around, and the water is like glass, It was a MONSTER sturgeon gliding along under the boat, kinda scary...

[@kroutdooradventures]

I grew up fishing for sturgeon on the columbia river, mostly from the bank but out of the boat once I was an adult. They truly are an amazing fish, I've been lucky to have seen some monsters. It's awesome to see that there is healthy population in that area. They dont open it often up here due to low numbers from predation and over fishing.

[@Bassman94Firenze]

I was wondering that too, sturgeon is widely known as an endangered specie. At least not really sustainable.

[@davescheer5038]

Congratulations on the biggest sturgeon , I know the feeling I to hooked one 6 1/2 ft long back in the 80’s , up north , it took 2 hrs to get it in and totaled my line and reel , unfortunately mine was out of season and couldn’t keep it but I guarantee it’s something you’ll never ever forget, great vid as always, tight lines bro !

[@cleobridges5561]

San Diego beer is the best Taku!!!

[@picholine]

Well shucks Taku, I saw ya' cook em' up on the steelie vid and got pushed here and commented before I saw your vid. Now I gotta watchum...Aloha...soaking some mud shrimp on Friday...

[@Baughlin]

Sturgeon are amazing fish man. I caught a nice 53 incher in Washington a few years ago. They’re pretty tasty too

[@VibN117]

Great video

[@jericdavid7472]

Dope! Im a Bay Area Native and Flash actually gave me my first tattoo. Great people over at Lucky Vans Tattoo. Great content!

[@eriks9576]

Its crazy how different the features are on the sturgeon in the bay and the Columbia River in Oregon. Same species but the ones in the bay have blunter nose and are usually thicker. Either way they are one of my favorite fish to eat if prepared right. Greetings from Portland Oregon, raised in Richmond California. I miss fishing in the bay allot......

[@Bastis_Fitness_kitchen]

great video :-)

[@ameatperson6779]

seriously youtube.... how in the F**K does Taku not have 1 million subs???? amazing content, Taku!!! Thank You!!

[@northsidevillarat]

Man!...I wish they would let us catch them up here in Oregon 🥺

[@johnnysaechao6218]

Back in mid 90s we alway fish for them at Benicia Bay. I think the slot was 48” to 70” not sure I no longer live in that part of area. I miss fishing for them though!

[@poopoop331]

May be the first youtuber I buy something from since the beginning of the website

[@deltapromasterlauj4848]

10:46 Taku going into labor…….😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@WMRFNINJA]

Nice job with your personal best biggest fish taku! I know exactly how you feel catching that fish. I live in Wisconsin and we dont have white sturgeons, but we have lake sturgeons, which dont grow as big as whites but can still get pretty big! My best and biggest was 63 inches!! Seeing your fish reminded me of mine and the video just doesnt give respect to really how big your fish was. Great job brother and hopefully next time you get one even bigger, a goliath, break the 80 inch mark!!

[@mahadevang2291]

Feel good video

Yo.. I smiled the whole time you hooked up 😆

[@thelinecook]

That was awesome. Stelo sure knows how to catch sturgeon! Congrats on that monster Taku! Sandwich looked top notch as always. Sometimes the simple things are soooo good. It looked fried to perfection. Amazing vid!!

[@Eggroll420]

the crunch tho

[@dalvenp]

If you clean out the jelly inside the spinal cord and cut into strips, marinate and bake it crispy its like chips. 👍
