I sure miss your videos of all fishing you 2 do & the collaborations with Fisherman's Life. I hope all goes well and you are still fishing and working in Alaska.
Hey man. You probably don't remember me but I stayed at the Chinook shores lodge and went fishing with a friend of mine a couple of years ago. I just wanted to say that you inspired me and I am now a deckhand in homer alaska. Thank you very much.
Look like box crabs to me ??..had too Google them..I learned something new.. Puget Sound king crabs are larger than the similar brown box crab, with an average size of 6-10 inches. ...
@HahThatsWhatSheSaid what pollutants?? In Hawaii we eat some raw seafood. Unless your ocean is polluted that nothing is living or barely living in it I’m sure it’s ok. Sea salt if originally dried ocean water
"The Puget Sound king crab is known to live in the subtidal regions along coasts which means it is part of a diverse community of marine life that interact with each other to create a dynamic environment. This species is in a position where it must catch prey and avoid predators in order to survive and thrive. L. mandtii is known to consume sea urchins and other invertebrates, such as starfish and sea cucumbers.[1] By controlling sea urchin populations, more seaweed and kelp will show up since there will be less invertebrates that consume those primary producers. In turn, the seaweeds and kelp conceal the Puget Sound king crab from its predators in the sky, such as pelicans and other birds that consume marine life. This is an example of a changing cycle within this community because a disturbance or change any species population could alter the rest of the community altogether. L. mandtii is becoming more uncommon in the areas it used to thrive in. Part of this is due to increased use of fishing nets of different sizes which the crabs get caught in and brought up.[6] The Puget Sound king crab has been put on the protected species list by the Washington Fish and Wildlife Department which means it is not advised to catch and collect this species.

Good stuff guys!!! All I could think of the whole time is "SAVE SOME FOR MATTS".... LOL.... You should definitely parboil some, and freeze it up and send it to him, or wait for his next visit to let him try some. While your add it, send me some down here in Miami too!! 😉 👍 Thanks for the upload.
That first crab that he opened dock-side, I would've added gochujang(Korean chili paste), garlic/ginger, sesame oil, shochu(Korean alcohol), chili pepper powder/flakes & marinate 2-3hours....
Hey man , I too am a free diver / spear fisherman down here on the Oregon coast. The water up there is really clear ( looks cold as hell ). Where you were diving , it looked for the most part pretty shallow. May I ask about where in Alaska you were.? Diving for those type of king crabs has always been a dream of mine. Thank you for this video!
Great video! Never stand on that little shelf next to the transom. It’s not designed to hold you and you could easily fall into the water and the motor prop will chew you up if you are in reverse. I am thinking this is likely one of the first times you have operated a small boat like that.
The reason why I gave you a thumbs up ! Is because, you returned the female crab 🦀 to allow the repopulation of their species, I don’t like to watch people who make bad decisions! Good for you!
If you're not in a harbor with all of oils and "other stuff" that gets into the water from boats and people... just grab a bucket of seawater for the boil. No need to spend money on salt. "Because that's how we do", here in WA State. (Besides, it's sea salt. According to people that make such claims, sea salt is better for you)
If that soft crab was soft enough that you could tear it's shell with two fingers then you totally should of kept it and deep fried it!!!!! Imagine being the first ever to eat and cook a softshell KING CRAB hahaha
You are from the Puget Sound area? That's where I live. Been crabbing for over 25 years here and I've never went for rock crab. And there's no limit for them here in Puget Sound?
It really depends on the weather. Water conditions are good if we do not have a lot of rain the day before you go, if has not been super hot and there is no algae bloom, and if it is not too windy on the day you go. 😃 Best of luck to you I hope it’s an awesome trip! 👍🏼
OMG do you sound naive. Maybe you’d like to erect a little privacy tent for them? Adfg sets the rules for harvest fully aware of breeding and life cycles. Grow up.

I really glad you included the cooking part. I'm so jealous watch this. Very cool.
No one can resist crabs ♥️
Those crabs are officially on my bucket list!!🦀🦀

You added salt from a can to water to boil the crabs? You just came out of the ocean! Call me crazy but we just use sea water to boil them.
You don’t get all the dissolved pollutants if you use treated water and food grade salt.
Two smart people on your hands here....
@@pold4837 lol
@HahThatsWhatSheSaid what pollutants?? In Hawaii we eat some raw seafood. Unless your ocean is polluted that nothing is living or barely living in it I’m sure it’s ok. Sea salt if originally dried ocean water
because usually when you boil with water from the ocean, the meat tends to stick to the shell more
5:14 to what are you referring to when you said “yes they are beautiful “?
The crabs, duh Kappa
@@spinster4000 i think there's something else that's more beautiful then the crab 🦀 😂
Those crabs look like the monsters I used to fight on a Harry Potter PC game lol
You can also do stir-fried crab with ginger scallions recipe. You all will love it!
Thanks for the tip! Sounds great.
I really enjoyed this you guys! I even learned somthin' new today! Cheers! Where can you purchase the big Crab Steamer??

Amazing country thanks for your vidéo
Where you guys been??? Time 2 post 👍

Thanks for the upload.
We catch those crabs all the time longlining in Metlakatla just south of Ketchikan
You really need an orange road cone with glass on the big end for viewing the bottom from inside the boat
Good idea. Would have been a huge help having one.
That first crab that he opened dock-side, I would've added gochujang(Korean chili paste), garlic/ginger, sesame oil, shochu(Korean alcohol), chili pepper powder/flakes & marinate 2-3hours....
Those crabs are dope as hell! Nice work
Awwwghhh.... Those looks SO tasty! ❤️🍴
Buy why aren't you catching sea urchins, they are super delicious 😋

Thanks you for sharing. Very nice food
Sound like some solid life advice "There's no point in trying to keep a soft female"...lol!
😆 😆 It’s amazing what the great outdoors has to teach us.
We are the Stewards of this planet, nice video!
But you kept her boyfriend/husband?! Lol
He kept another female though
Great video! Never stand on that little shelf next to the transom. It’s not designed to hold you and you could easily fall into the water and the motor prop will chew you up if you are in reverse. I am thinking this is likely one of the first times you have operated a small boat like that.
Your attention to detail is impeccable. My guess is that your a certified Scuba diver. N.A.U.I. certified?
Saw you guys on Fisherman’s Life. I am subscribed now. Loving y’all stuff!!!
Awesome. Thanks for being a part of the channel. We love Matt’s. He’s the reason we are here. Tj and I appreciate your Sub 👍🏼☀️
Congratulations! You are living my dreams!
That was cool those looked super delicious 😁👍
The "crab shit" is the best part of any crab!
my mother always told me to stay clear of women with crabs - reckon id ignore her this once
These crabs are very expensive in Japan. You're lucky to just be able to pluck them out from the water.
It was special finding them. Cheers!
Never seen king crab with such short legs
“It looks nice enough to eat”,🤣
Here from Mat's channel Fisherman's Life. I subbed!
Man...my mouth is watering...
I'd love to try them!
That PUGET sound king crab is my bucket list crab , cant seem to find anyone who has a SPECIMEN for sale
Had my mouth watering for some crab, great video my friend thank you.
Ps. We have nothing like that in Florida, only stone crab and blue crab.
Fantastic, with ya!

Looks like I gotta go dive Alaska soon.
Those kings look amazing!
Sure are a great pair 👍🏻
Now that is what I call LUNCH
All that pain and suffering paids off
Nice video friends... Hello from San Diego 😎 !!!
I must have missed the king crab.
No shit lol
Good catch
Next time cook them in the same water you pulled them from it works good with octopus
Wish we would have. Great idea to try with octopus. Have you cooked octopus often? We catch them occasionally.
Yah. I spent most my life on the big island. That’s how Hawaiians cook.
Would have been nice to see you put the crab out of its misery with an ice bath before you cleaned it 🤷♂️ but did look tasty!
bro its a crab, calm down.
2 most beautiful crabs i ever saw 5:13
I’m not gonna act like I ain’t looking at them to but you don’t have to be immature about it.
5:25 nice pair.
.....of crabs
Watching from PH

We do it in Maine too John.
207 represent!
Amazing..king crap👍👍🤔🤔😚💓
that looks so good never tried crab looks better than lobster
We have Scallop here in Saint Joe bay but they’re only a quarter of the size of those. Good lord
SO cool
WOW TO THE CRABS!
HOW MUCH DO THEY WEIGH
Crustaceans are definitely aliens from outer space
Isn’t that Knudson cove marina in Ketchikan
Ross Brand it is Knudson Cove Marina
If that soft crab was soft enough that you could tear it's shell with two fingers then you totally should of kept it and deep fried it!!!!!
Imagine being the first ever to eat and cook a softshell KING CRAB hahaha
So freaking cool. I'd love to do some day.
The highest quality productions for fishing videos! Keep em coming.
It’s been a year since your guys posted a video. Did you quit you-tubing?
Looks like you are having a great time. Any tips on rental cabins?
@Kristine Gunnels thank you
Almost Home Vacation Rentals is a great option in Ketchikan.
What month did y’all go in to get these crabs and scallops?
You are from the Puget Sound area? That's where I live. Been crabbing for over 25 years here and I've never went for rock crab. And there's no limit for them here in Puget Sound?
wow never seen those before. grab some urchins! 😫
Maybe I missed it but where were the scallops per your title?
Hey just seeing you guys on Fishermans life sent me over to your channel hope you guys make it up there in Alaska looks amazing take care y’all
Those crabs were jurassic
hey how is the water clarity there in august? im going on a diving trip this august and im not sure what to expect
It really depends on the weather. Water conditions are good if we do not have a lot of rain the day before you go, if has not been super hot and there is no algae bloom, and if it is not too windy on the day you go. 😃 Best of luck to you I hope it’s an awesome trip! 👍🏼
Damn those crabs looked amazing
Where is this located at in Alaska
Awesome!
It took a lot of energy because you're supposed to cook them before opening them!
I thought water will cold at all time in Alaska. He dived with one bare hand open.
great video
reel sweet!!!
They are Puget sound king crabs
No no they are not.
Easy enough to Wikipedia. They sure look like Puget Sound King Crags
"Puget" sound brother. haha. nice vid tho. got my sub!
Appreciate the correction and Thanks for the sub!
She's soft because she's recently molted. Probably be tastier that way.
Neat Vid...
Awesome shit man, if I lived anywhere near there I'd be a very very fat man
I love Alaska Jeff Fischer
Where can you find these crabs in Alaska?
Imagine what you could do if you had decent equipment
Of course their good because they have not been frozen, fresh from the sea !
No air tasks allowed?
Do you need a license for this and where in Alaska is this?
Alaska sportfishing license. We are in Ketchikan AK.
Looks like you're taking breeding pairs. Not how I would roll.
OMG do you sound naive. Maybe you’d like to erect a little privacy tent for them? Adfg sets the rules for harvest fully aware of breeding and life cycles. Grow up.
Someone should report them
Read the “about” before you judge
@@jasonjones846 Yup. You're right. Should have done. Sorry all, I humbly retract my previous drivel .
Im ready
The apron has THE BEST meat if the crab is big enough, trust me you're missing out
Kelp Crab - never seem them that large
anyone know what species the tiny jellyfish is t 4:52
No scallops?
Where is this area?
I think the crabs are in pair.. put them back in the water.
Hanaki crab I think that how you spell it i don’t know but I have seen the crab but I know they are rare.
Why are they not trying to escape?
