I’m glad Taku didn’t edit out how difficult it actually is to fish! Patience is key and at the end of it all he got what he wanted! Great work

The main issue is that he's really was not very good at fishing for kings in this video. He doesn't know how to find fish and thought the issue was his line being visible. That's not it. Chinook aren't line shy. He's one of the guys who goes out to a spot where people have caught fish and just trolls all day hoping to get lucky. He's also really handicapped by the fact he is on a kayak with a mini downrigger. I limit my boat most every trip for chinook. You have to know where to find them and be able to put a bait in front of them. Chinook often hug bottom because the bait stays near structure, but he can't even get there with his equipment.

40 minutes and I'm here for all of it. You help me forget my worries for a little while Taku. Thank you and godspeed.

As soon as Taku starts his snack, I knew it was FISH ON !! 🙀👍👍

This video had me banging my chest like an intense football game, I was screaming in my room “THIS IS YOUR MOMENT, CATCH THAT DAMN SALMON” props man. You got a new subscriber for sure.

Wow. You definitely earned that fish. Five days of grinding to get that one fish. Thats pure will and determination. That video got me pumped up.

15 years ago, i was one of the rnd engineers responsible for designing the Shimano Tekota 300, 301, Shimano TLD etc.. fun time being a designer of what you love. I hope they still continue to produce it here in Malaysia.

man, i've been binge watching through your videos, seriously love them, I release about 95% of what I catch but i am definitely feeling inspired to start keeping some more fish and seeing what i can do. Keep up the awesome stuff.

love the instinct over tech! I'm the same way. Only way to build that instinct is to go fishing, and two generations of my family fishing in same river before me and all those tips helps too! I like to say I don't go fishing, I go catching! =)

I believe Ocean salmon are feeding, most I catch there is lots of food in their stomach. River salmon fishing is completely different as you say It's only aggression.

Another amazing video - thank you for making these!! Wow where to begin - the persistence, the scenery, THE WHALES, the epic struggle...and then a beautiful meal. Instinct over technology!!! 🤣

That was an epic catch Taku! My heart was pounding up until you finally landed the beaut! Congratulations! Now go on and do it again! LOL

40 minutes of pure adventure. Thanks for taking us along for the ride! Congrats on the Chinook!

I haven't been salmon fishing in 7 years and this video got my heart pumping so fast. Absolutely loved it. Thank you!

Thanks, Taku. You showed what persistence means. I enjoy watching your catch, filleting & cooking skills.

Awesome catch great job. I love that you show your skunk days it makes me and probably others almost feel the same joy as when u catch, it almost puts me there with you sharing the catch.... great job...

You are an excellent fisherman, congratulations your fishing was incredible, this place has beautiful fish. Stay with God always!👍🎣🐟😊

Might not remember me, especially since you blew up in popularity, but I've been watching since the OG catch and sushi! If possible you should try catching with a heart beat montior so we can see the moment you know there's a fish on the line. Especially when you were eating lol. Anyways love your stuff!

Taku!!!!!! this was one of the most exciting kayak salmon fishing video I have seen! I loved it when you were talking to yourself. Trying to calm yourself down and tire him out!!! Great job at getting one in the can!! Persistence pays off!!!

I love to see all the effort that went into catching the fish. I have watched many thousands of catch clean and cooks and people rarely show all the effort it really takes to catch a fish. This video was one that had me on the edge of my seat and I have to say awesome job.

I went around 35 times for king salmon this year so far and only caught 8. I usually don't go this much but because of covid, me and my dad have more time to fish!

That white tee "Outdoor Chef Life" is FIRE

I find your videos therapeutic, calming and nice and I like listening to your voice and the way you and Jocelyn laugh alot it's so cool 😊

Wow! I feel so happy for you especially hearing how long this took! Can’t wait for the next episode!

I’ve watched every video before this and he always said that he was out fishing for salmon... he never stopped and tried his best to get that content for his channel and to enjoy his catch...

For the most part you only see success in most vidoes and it looks so easy to find and land fish. This tells the true story and what an epic ending!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

Couldn’t imagine paddling for 6 hours + a day just to get a fish I wouldn’t be able to walk that kayak back up the shore

After putting in so much time and effort, and to finally catch that beauty, you just know it's going to be honored, and treated with the utmost respect in terms of prepping, preserving, cooking, and enjoying the taste. Too many times, with the big commercial boats, you see the fish treated like cheap slabs of meat. I love that rice tea recipe!

Good job man!!! I was so happy for you watching this video! Great work! The appreciation you give to the fish is very very inspiring! Thanks!

lol anyone who salmon fishes knows how nerve racking it is to net them especially with a barbless hook.

3:10 lol this fish is from 3030, or swims like a seal 4:05 wondering how water doesn't flood your kayak where the flippers go out of it 5:25 you guys aren't using sonar/fish finders or something?

Not gonna lie, I skip to the cooking

This was so awesome. Brought a big smile to my face thank you Taku!

Straight up have been binge watching outdoor chef life for the past few days, thanks for the great content!

So exciting just watching. Thank you for not giving up. Awesome!

Best catch and episode ever bro! I'm not gonna lie, I kinda teared up when you netted her. So much came down to that one moment. Doing big things brotha!! LOVE IT!!!

Amazing video. Crazy determination, Never Say Die attitude! Congratulations! Such a great lesson on never giving up!

Hey taku, i’m from Brazil and I’m trying to learn English, your videos helps me a lot to practice my listening!! I’m glad to be part of it somehow... when you hook up the salmon, i’ve been so exited to see if you catch him, and when you miss the net, duuude... my heart race! Thanks for everything, your channel is amazing... peace ✌🏽 🇧🇷 ♥️

Tempering the bowl in that grill also adds extra smokiness to the bowl for flavor! Great job Taku.. congrats on that fish you've been chasing for awhile and amazing presentation and cooking. Your cooking skills are off da charts.

Been here from the beginning of your channel and this was the most epic catch you ever did, on a kayak no less! So proud of your persistence!

Worth all the work... congrats... 8 trips for me last year to land just one 33" salmon. I steaked it, BBQd it, smoked it, and it was just awesome. Been catching more than my fair share of halibut this season... the salmon will be my target in the very near future... thanks for posting.

Watching your joy as you take the first bite of your very first salmon caught is priceless!! Way to persevere and congrats bro!!

This was amazing. Kept me on edge, intense. You're a fighter man!

This is why i look forward to Taku Tuesday. Solid episode! I was looking forward to this because of your IG.

So happy for you when you finally got it in the net!! So hyped man!! Awesome catch bud, great video.

One of my favorite videos so far. Congrats Taku!

Great video and congrats on your first king!!!! I was on the edge my seat. Good luck on the rest of your season.

Glad I got to see the whole process of your salmon missions! Congrats again can wait for part 2 !

That was sooo intense! Nice King catch, Taku! Instinct over technology. Thanks for the inspiration!

Congratulations on catching the King Salmon Fish, such a beautiful CATCH!!!

The most epic fishing video EVER. Bro you’ve earned every little scale of that fish. Congrats man. Can’t wait for the videos to come. Hope you make Jocelyn some killer sushi. 🤙🏻

Holy cow I never thought about how hard it is to singlehandedly catch a salmon 😧 Your actually so amazing for being so persistent and unbothered by your luck. Great episode so you get a like!

Youre such a good fisherman and even a better cook that's what's makes your videos so awesome

Nice sound setup/editing in the last bit. Super clear and no wind. Cheers!

This is the best catch and cook of all time, ALL TIME!

Amazing fight and win Taku ...best kayak fishing video I've seen so far ....Congrats buddy

Oh man...well deserved! Congrats on your first chrome on the yak! It’s a grind, but boy is it rewarding. First of many I’m sure. Tight lines! 👊

Congrats Taku San,Instinct over Technology! Love your resolve and determination.

All the whale action was so frickin awesome! Taku’s determination is so inspiring. Catch more salmon for Jocelyn!

This is the most exciting episode of Taku Tuesday ever. Loved it ❤️

This had me on the edge of my seat!! I was so happy for you when you finally got that big guy

Teared up a bit with tears of joy for you. Excellent video.

Excellent catch! There is almost no words to describe the feeling of catching your own fish, preparing it, and eating it on the same day. Congrats. :)

GREAT job on your 1st salmon catch !!! Hope you catch many more. Your cooking is always superb. "Ciao".....

DUDE.... your reaction when the salmon took the lure was AWESOME!!! That was an epic catch!!! Congrats!!!

I may be one of your only viewers who has heard of ochazuke and even eaten it several times. My mother is Japanese, born and raised in Hiroshima. She fed us ochazuke all the time, and she always made it for us when we didn't feel well as kids. To this day, I love genmaicha tea and it's a staple in my house. Love the flavor of the roasted rice and tea together. Your ochazuke looked great, and I could tell Jocelyn enjoyed it! Congratulations, Taku on your first salmon of the season!! Oh, and by the way, those whales were amazing! I can't believe how close they were to you. Awesome video!!❤️🌹
