GIANT Mountain Cutthroat Trout (Catch Clean Cook) - Cutthroat Taste Test

I have been wanting to go fishing in the mountains for a long time but the timing was just never right. Fortunately, I found the time to sneak out into a mountain lake for some cutthroat trout fishing. I was planning to cook an entire meal, but I forgot my veggies in the refrigerator at home lol.

ABOUT ME
My name is Samong, and I am an avid outdoorsman who creates hunting and other outdoor videos on KZbin. My videos primarily consist of what Eastern Washington has to offer hunters, fishermen, and other outdoor enthusiasts, but when opportunities arise, I will wonder outside of Washington for more outdoor adventures. Regardless of where I am, I strive to entertain, teach, and inspire my viewers to get outside and enjoy the outdoors.

[@blueyes0152]

I'm 52 years old and have been doing this stuff my whole life. It's awesome to see the younger generations out enthusiastically enjoying the outdoors! Love what you're doing!

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Should of cooked up the crawdad 😂 awesome catch man, congrats!!!

[@SamongOutdoors]

I'm not hardcore enough like you to do that 🤣

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Samong Yang Outdoors would have been undersize anyways 😆

[@sangerbois]

You two need to colab. At least for one video.

[@MissionaryInMexico]

I'm a little older than you and have been fishing (AND catching fish 😁) for over 50 years. It also does my heart good to see these youngsters fishing and caring about the environment of these fish and for the fish themselves... Even if they keep some to eat. Like I do. There are good people still on the earth.

[@Scablands_Scavenger]

Awesome fish Samong!! If you ever want some free greens to go with your meal...here are a few that grow everywhere and are in season year round: Stinging nettle, delicious and very tasty steamed or sauteed with meat even stewed (they don't sting after cooking). Plantain: grows everywhere a little bitter raw can be cooked and is decent in stew. Dandelion: good in salad or steamed sauteed in small amounts (can be bitter). All of these compliment meat and eggs very well topped with salt pepper and a splash of balsamic vinegar...best part is they grow everywhere and are generally in season except winter!

Or you can hit tacobell on the way.

[@Tater79bj]

I still don't know why you don't have more subs, you definitely deserve them. You make quality content with great camera work, in amazing and beautiful locations. What more could people want lol. Great video as always my friend 👍

[@madss8886]

Little late but I love no name! There's another lake down further! It comes to a y and you take a right. It's beautiful. I use little trout eggs out there!

[@josephhinton2709]

Just what I would need to get away from work etc and just relax over looking crystal clear waters, mountains and catching some big trouts. Great video dude!

[@theninelivesofsandy9773]

I miss hiking the backcountry and fishing small streams for food as you go. Great vid!

[@barrykramer9125]

Great job Catching that cut through trout and the shore lunch looked great can't wait for the next video.

[@juanscott6670]

That first reveal of the lake was SO BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait to get back into the mountains. Excellent work, dude!

[@duanegertsch5768]

Your videos are awsome Samong .I grew up in the Valley aka Veradale behind Central Valley Highschool .

[@WagonBurner1868]

as a fisher and hunter brought me to steve rinella which brought me to fishing with rod to fishermans life to nwfs who introduced me to you. you all basically fish trout like i do and love the catch and cook!

[@jasentonguepowersaws4206]

[@maxwelltarantino643]

Love your videos man. Now I gotta get my a** out there and fish. Btw, from NYC, never seen water so clean...HAHAHHA.

[@FuryJDM]

always watch to see you catch and cook. Never caught a trout, but hopefully I can soon in Colorado and give it a try. :)

[@Jake-xy9lt]

Gorgeous fish, man! You've got me wanting to hop in the truck and drive West. Have you gone after any Grayling by the way?

[@SamongOutdoors]

I have never fished for grayling, but it's on the bucket list!

[@stephanienavarro4670]

Awesome catch & cook! Love your channel - always learning something and it’s awesome that you have such an easing way of being. Your vids are entertaining yet relaxing. That was a beautiful fish and location :)

[@madhatter6549]

The meat of the mountain lake fish---- bows, cuts or brookies seems to always be more firm.. Cold clean water...

[@SamongOutdoors]

Good to know! That was the first thing I noticed when I first tried the meat!

[@randysmith8604]

I totally agree with that. I've had the same experience with the meat.

[@michaelvl494]

Agreed. Mountain lake/stream char/trout have a lot of flavor.

[@calilife805]

So true ! Cold creeks are the best 🔥

[@ronnuttman100]

another great Vid man , hunting season around the corner your killing it with the great videos keep it up brother.

[@belvahoppe3334]

Appreciate you take time to give thanks to the Lord. Keep up the AWESOME videos! We are going fishing at lake Roosevelt soon - hoping for Walleye!

WOW! Props for cleaning the fish on film! Nice catch!

[@fishn_aaron_outdoors4984]

That lake was awesome man. Would love to come up to your area and fish. For a stocker that trout looked bomb. Thanks for the content man. You always deliver bro. Blessed on all your adventures. 🙌🔥🎣

[@NachoKitty6969]

Doesn't look like a stocked trout... don't they cut the adipose?

[@NWoutdoorsadventures]

Glad you got up there! Beautiful little spot, sadly people have been really trashing it in the past few yers, me and my dad packed 2 full size garbage bags of trash out of there, last time we went up.

[@MinuteontheMountain]

Congrats, man. That was a beautiful cuttie.

[@jordannelson7052]

Wow! Nice work brother! If you are ever on the west side near Arlington I’d love to sync up for some waterfowl hunting or fishing!

[@peterdiebel7372]

Sami, wow, beautiful trout. Ive been watching u & your family pull together on many successful hunts and now your pulling large fish as well! You must have a gold horseshoe hidden somewhere . Great vid as always, cheers from across the border.

[@nathanielriesterer9103]

Eggs and trout is one of my all-time favorites.

[@zapsdiputs]

I caught my first cutthroat, at a lake, literally within 50 feet of my tent this weekend. Needless to say I am having microwave pad Thai tonight as I'm watching you also catch cutthroat and I love it.

[@LucidStorm101]

Awesome vid! planning on heading up to a mountain lake soon and go after some brooks and browns

[@kvang254]

great video Samong. I know i'm planning to move back to washington next year and I look forward to exploring random lakes as well instead of my typical go to. Maybe i'll run into you, also hope you'll be at 100k subscribers by then.

@@danielg4085 nope not happening. Washington born and raised. Going back to my roots.

KOU IZZLE just joking man haha thought you were one of the million New Yorkers moving here everyday. Welcome back when you’re back !!!

[@kvang254]

@@danielg4085 no worries lol. I feel the same way. People in Minnesota/Wisconsin always ask if it rains in Washington everyday. I tell them "YUP" so they don't move there.

[@yesimernie]

Man this is crazy! I went to this exact lake today, caught my first cutthroat on a similar lure, and cooked it on the bank with Salt and Pepper. Then I come home to see this video on KZbin 🤔

[@toonbigwolf7218]

Great vid!!!!! You have inspired me to go out and more and do catch and cooks!!!

[@anthonymartinez4780]

Cutthroat are the most beautiful trout imo. I could be biased as I'm a Colorado man myself but they are gorgeous and fight the hardest pound for pound

[@brent338]

One of my favorite lakes, I stopped by there a few years ago and it was trashed... Some meth-heads camped out there and tossed garbage all over the lake, I was Soo sad to see it... looks like it got rehabilitated! Those cutthroat are amazing in there, glad to see them make it. The slide on the other bank across from you is my go to spot.

[@SamongOutdoors]

There was still quite a bit of trash so I picked up what I could. Next time I head there, I'm gonna bring an entire trash bag with me.

[@Truth.Keeper]

What lake was it? I can't find it..

[@ASAUCYKOALABEAR]

What lake is it? It looks really familiar

[@bradpolmateer4965]

Good job son! Nothin like catchin and cookin on the bank! Enjoy!!

[@rperkins637]

Awesome job, Thanks for another great video

[@sirtango1]

If you cut the gills on the underneath side of the fish then cut up from the vent to the base of the gills. Don’t split the gills then stick your finger back through the gills and peel back towards the tail. This will remove the gills, pectoral fins, and all of the insides in one quick motion. I usually cut from the vent to the base of the gills first. Then with the fish belly up I cut the front of the gills loose. Then it’s like you created a pull tab of sorts. Peel back and you’re done! 😊

[@xyoojboy95]

You should do some kind of sponsor and fish with subscribers lol. Me and my cousin from alaska love your vids, keep it up. But corona no good

[@michaelhilderbrand5025]

As always Samong, great content and cant wait for the humtimg season to start. Looking at getting a bow tommorrow to opeen more hunting areas, since rifle is so restriced over here on the west side. Any tips?

[@SamongOutdoors]

I'm not the best archer, nor do I know much about bows in general. I would just recommend going to your local archery pro shop and shoot all the bows within your price range and buy whatever bow that feels the best for you. Archery is something that I need to start researching more about.

[@Longtrailside]

@@SamongOutdoors Picked up a Bowtech carbon icon dlx all black for shooting from a blind. No sting in the hand, quiet, and i shot it well, even though the handle isnt the most comfortable to me. Have it set at 70 pounds and the pull is smooth. I think once i get used to it will be a serious harvester of game.

[@artax_dies6813]

Next time try parking at the campground gate and walk in. Its only like a 5 to 10 min walk to the lake. It gets you to the other side where it is much deeper water with a faster drop off. Very good fishing that whole other side. I get good catches with a black/orange or black/red roostertails due to the crawfish. I love those alpine lakes up there. Theres a few other lakes close by that are amazing.

[@housebuyer]

whats the name of this Lake?

[@jerzrue2555]

Cool video! Love some trout fishin!

[@timberg7377]

Mountain fish is always firmer and the flavor is much better, I think it has-to do with colder water temperature and cleaner eating. Just my opinion. Fun stuff bud. Great fish.
