    So modest Taku. I think the salad looked amazing. Fish skin croutons and ikura made it 👌. I loved seeing you hop around different rivers and do some fly fishing. Alaska is just gorgeous. The vibe of this video is definitely a nice change. Super relaxing. Every video is really just amazing in its own way.

    Love the videos but if I could make a recommendation I’d recommend getting a net with rubber netting your flies won’t get stuck nearly as easy and just Incase you catch a fish you don’t wanna keep the rubber net also doesn’t wipe off nearly as much slime off the fish like the fabric nets do . Thanks so much for sharing all your adventures!

    Good job Taku! I love it when your trying things outside the box. For the future, after you fillet the fish or butterfly in this case and you want to keep the skin on. The pin bones can be removed fairly easily by cutting down next to them without cutting through skin. Then run the top of your thumb nail between the cut pin bones and the skin from the back to the front of the fillet. They will come of the skin fairly easily. This is how I get boneless fillets of trout with the skin on for the smoker.

    "get somthin' on the fly" love it. I gotta check my geography I don't know how you cross canada to get back to alaska. been a while. glad you check the local fishing rules they vary a lot. barbless, no keep, numbers, everything. bring back some sea otters to eat these urchins and breed, we need them back. benkyo nihongo shimas, but only on the hirigana, haven't gotten up to katakana yet, benkyo. and it's been like 20 yearsish but you've inspired me to check back into it. I think I have commitment issues I speak a little spanish, a little german, and a little french, a little italian, a little hungarian, but not fluent in anything. It's just hard to figure out what to study and commit to. Your production value is great, I don't know how you and joc do it, but it's high quality. Dang your knife skills are encrible' (that is the french talking) thanks for that. I never toss salad I leave the toppings on top and leave the different dressings on the table so everyone can get the right proportions and choose their own. You don't have that problem since you know your partner and you're alone together. when you gonna stop buying cameras and drones and get a ring? delete that if you want to.

I've never heard of that type of fish before, but it looks great with the way you grilled it, and also put it in a salad. It's also a bonus to get crispy fish skin.

Unfortunate that you did not get to Fairbanks as graying (12-15 inch) in the late '60's were very readily catchable in the upper Chena River (2nd bridge) on silver Hot Rod spoons. I love that crispy skin too.
