I just wanna say that hours of watching these videos subconsciously taught me how to break a fish down and ended up being very helpful when I went to Pohnpei in the Pacific for research. We went out with our friend on our day off and caught a bunch of yellowfin and mahi mahi (I have never fished out in the ocean on a boat before), and he let us keep 2. My years of watching this channel out of pure entertainment and I was able to cut it up (very roughly for a first time) back at the house! So thanks for that lol
10:58, nice Kagami! I think they call them African pampano and diamond travelly in other parts of the world. You could actually see them next to the shore when you thought they were omilus. Awesome strike and way to land it from shore! Such a beautiful fish!
Diamond trevally and African pompano are very similar but they are not the same. Diamond trevally is an indo pacific fish and doesn’t come to the Atlantic. That’s 100% what taku caught. I’ve caught AP before and that’s not what he had. The African pompano inhabits pretty much all warm water areas of the world so it’s possible to catch one in Samoa but don’t think that’s what he caught. AP at that size have lost their long dorsal fins, at least in the Atlantic. Either way, I bet they taste very similar and AP is maybe my favorite fish. So good cooked or raw.
Awesome Job Taku!! The Shiney one is called a Kagami in Hawaii. They usually travel in pairs. If you catch or shoot one, the other will be close by. Nice job!
Can’t wait to go back home in Faleaseela. Been away for 14 years now.. out here slaying Uluas in Hawaii now😊. Definitely going to try out those spots when I go back Samoa lol. Taking VILI with me.
It's so great that whether you're Japanese, Indonesian, Polynesian, or Micronesian, there is a culture of using every part of the fish. I get so sick of fishing channels where the heads and collars are tossed away like garbage - such disrespect for the ocean.
@@harrymiram6621I put all of this in my instapot 1/4 c vinegar 2T fish sauce mushrooms of choice 2 C of chicken stock or water handful of Thai chili Hot and sour soup so good. Had firm tofu at the end. And noodles too. Yummm
I’m white and grew up fishing with my dad who had that mentality of waste. He grew up working on his dads charter boat that just gave clients filets and tossed everything else. I learned from TH-cam channels like takus and many others about how to use everything. He’s so mad at himself for what he’s wasted after I’ve made him collars, grouper ribs, fish cheeks, fish head stew, pasta sauce made with snapper racks, crispy fish skin, etc, etc. People really don’t know what they are missing out on and just need to be educated about how easy and tasty it is use everything from a fish. Still need to get bold and try to use organs but my dog sure loves them haha.
Samoa looks like a great place to visit for people like me who like to camping simply. Also a great place of our group of friends who like the simple life too❤. The fishing looks great and the relaxation is good if you want it. 🎉
I remember I watched your vids few years ago, and I totally forgot about you unfortunately. But gladly youtube algorythm made your vid pop up in my feeds. This is what I love about you and your channel- the real people, cozy atmosphere, some genuine folks and culture . Honestly makes me feel like home and gets me feeling that Im travelling as well. Thank you!
Also I visited Samoa en route to Kanton Atoll in 2015. Beautiful spot. Didn't mind the Vailima! Wonder what happened to our deckhand, Taula. He'd get all excited and call bluefin trevally Bluvalley!
Enjoyed your catch and cook. It’s nice to have friends and family to share it with. Food is the best way to incorporate in celebrations. Ty so much for sharing it with us. Cheers to more! God bless
Thank you taku that was an awesome video bro🤘love all the recipes that you come up with,and incorporating local fruits And vegetables into your dishes.so cool 👍
Awesome food! That breadfruit tempura looks delicious, not to mention the sashimi man I wish I was sitting at the table and to wash everything down with that Taula beer my favorite whenever I visit the motherland…God is good ! Fa’afetai for another great vlog 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤙🤙
Just gotta love the cultural aspect of these vids great job taku I really look forward to Tuesdays now seeing the different countries and cultures it's amazing.
OH SHAAAAT SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATI DEGREES OF SEPARATION.....Didnt know you knew Malosi!! AWESSOME and send Briggsy and Cavi our love! Malosi with epic lures and loves to fish in his crocs
Been watching you from your foraging days and full time sushi chef. I would love to see you forage on a foreign land and use local ingredients whenever possible. Love the contents❤
I believe that is called an African Pompano, I could be wrong but here in Florida we catch them on the wrecks and it look exactly the same. nice fish for sure. nice job Chef.
Those tacos looks amazing. Rock fish is such a meaty fish with silky flesh when I make a creamy fish soup. Here in Hawaii, we'll I live in Maui. Rock fish is called Po'opa'a. Just love your fishing videos. ❤❤
Just for some information, Kagami is the species, the word Ulua refers to any of the trevally species that exceed 10lbs in weight. Smaller ones are called Papio. Nice fish!
Reminds me of a guy rock fishing when we went to Lord Howe Island he was hooking massive Kingfish drag would scream out then ping! Every cast almost impossible to land you guys did well

Thank you for visiting our homeland of Samoa 🇼🇸. It was so beautiful to see you with the locals. Malo uso

I rate how you show the whole filleting of the fish its satisfying as to watch
You're an awesome ambassador for humankind. Thanks for visiting my homeland and sharing in its beauty 💗

AGREED! Fish head/collar +carcass make for A-1+ soup stock
