I had Cig from barracuda I caught off the coast of Cuba. It felt like an Acid trip + diarrhea for 12 hours and I was fine after. The neurological effects lasted for days. Thankfully I fully recovered without requiring hospitalization.
woah, interesting experience, thanks for sharing, and glad u all good now 🤙🤙
Crazy, never knew this existed! Thanks for info.
👌🤙
Learned a lot here, very interesting!!! Thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Well made professional video, nicely explained 🤙🏻
Glad you liked it
Really good video!!! Very impressed how you broke it down and kept it scientific. Mahalos for the work you out into it and I have to say it’s very reassuring. Wahanui is also a fish that I have had numerous times without getting sick whatsoever and it’s got a pretty bad rep also. I ate it before I knew about the reputation of Cig. Same applies probably as the Roi situation? Thanks again.
Jeremy Neill much appreciation for the support, this is gonna be an ongoing study so hopefully we’re able to get more information on it. I know the stigma for Roi is the highest for ciguatera but I’ve heard more cases coming from ulua. But yea we’re planning our part 2 soon.
Mahalo for the info. Always been scared to death of the ROI. Gonna try um. Keep up the great vis
yup , tryin to share what we can. the fear of Roi is real, maybe over exaggerated subjectively, but id say worth a try, or bite :p
My kids and I caught 3 Roi’s yesterday and one of them was about 4lbs. The 4pounder Roi gave us a mean fight to land it. So my diver friend said that any Roi that’s over 3lbs has Cig. well the fact that u guys gave more info and cooking recipes for Roi, we are having it for dinner tonight. Much Mahaloz for da info
Charles Cruz yea from the research we gathered there’s no clear indication of what fish of what size may or may not have signs of ciguatera, from what we found and from other divers ciguatera concentrations is more area based. And even though a fish may have ciguatera there’s a high possibility that it’s only stored in the organs. So yea with Roi it’s more of a reputation then anything. How did the Roi come out?
Did the fish carry cigs?
Keep movin broda ! Love the vidz! Super informative videos and great action under the ocean! 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Right on thx for the support 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Aloha mai kākou. We were taught to give the fish naʻau to the cats. If they don't eat it, then that 🐟 has ciguatera.
interesting, u think it would be similar with a dog? cuz sometimes we test that
Cherreh video! That’s some good info and sad to think of all the Roy’s that went to waste
Ikr right 😬🙏🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Berahh hilarious video (brilliantly) explained 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Peter Colburn appreciate it 🤙🙏
Right on. Watching out here on Guam..love n hafa adai
So cool! Aloha🤙🏼🤙🏼
I had mild ciguatera once after catching and then frying up and eating a moray eel. This was in subtropical Atlantic waters. I had diarrhea for two days and cold shivers and some muscle pain. No lasting damage, but it taught me to stay clear of apex reef predators, and release them when I catch them. Also, moray isn't good eating anyway, I found. It tends to be very oily and just not a nice texture for fish. Even the taste and flavor was kind of meh.
I’ve experienced this.. right before covid happened I got it from Eel that I had in my sushi. After only a few hours I had abdominal pain, vomiting every 20 mins, and diarrhea uncontrollably when I vomited. I was brought to the hospital after 6 hours of gastrointestinal issues for fluids due to dehydration. When I got there I was very dizzy, I had blurred vision, and my heart rate was 160 bpm. I was brought into ICU and remained there for 3 days. No one knew what was happening to me until I finally got better and they started asking me what I had eaten before this happened. They finally discovered it was Ciguatera. This was the worst experience of my life. I still have not eaten sushi or seafood since.
Oh man, was it from Restaurant Sushi or homemade sushi? Sounds rough, and are there still lingering symptoms
FINALLY!!! One video backing up da Roi… eat Roi, no shame… good tasting fish! It is invasive fish but good tasting. Rather eat Roi then one 80 pound Ulua
Mahalo piha… great video!!!
Yep 👍 been eating roi my whole life, grouper is a world wide delicacy and great tasting fish🤙much mahalos for you support 🙏
Well said bradahs! Mahalos for sharing! 🤙🏽
Appreciate your support 👌🤗
good on ya mates. good info
Thanks 👍
2 and a half years ago I speared a 4.5kg grouper off andros Island in the bahamas.
I ate it in a group of 6 people. There was a good 2kg of meat on the fish, and the group only ate half. I didn’t want any to go to waste so I ate 1kg. I was only 16 and didn’t know any better.
During the night i was very thirsty and so went to drink some cold water, and it felt like it was burning the tip of my tongue.
The morning after I had bad vomiting, diarrhoea, and dizziness. I nearly passed out walking outside to the car to get to hospital. I later found out my heart rate was 30BPM when my average is normally 80!
The local nurse put me on an IV drip and I stayed on it for the day, throwing up a few more times later.
For the next few weeks I was extremely weak, and hot water felt cold and cold water felt hot (mainly on my hands and feet). Urinating during these weeks was extremely painful as well.
After 2 and a half years, I still experience a burning tingling feeling in my hands and feet whenever I am fatigued from lack of sleep or too much alcohol.
Interestingly, on the 3 occasions I have smoked weed, my tingling symptoms have been made extremely strong. Ever since these one off ingestions of weed, my nerve damage has been much worse.
What did I learn? NEVER eat 1kg of anything :)))
Oh wow , thanks for telling your story, that sounds rough, I hope things improve.
Sounds like you needed a fat line of fish scales to up your heart rate
Mahalo for the info, guys!
yesssir
Next time I hit one Roi I going eat um!!!
My nephew speared a massive Roi biggest I ever seen, I wanted to try um after watching you guys but everyone was " Nah unks you going get sick!!" Brah after reading all the comments and watching your vids several times, I'm down forr try um!!! So next time its on Roi going get it lol and I going grind 🤙💯chhhhhhheeeeeeoooo fakafetai lahi my uhos for all your vids aloloha atu 🤙
Appreciate the support 🤙 Yea always catch and cook at your own risk. But Roi has always been on the menu since started Spearfishing and it’s very delicious. Give it a shot and let us know how you like it.
Thank you for making this but I’m still scared. Please keep making videos about cigs. Mahalo and awesome channel. I Subbed
Hey well right on, and thx! 🤙🏼🤙🏼
I got poisoned after eating a fried barracuda...within hours it started to take effect on my body when I woke up after eating the fish...I was seeing boils and swelling with red spots on My body I felt an awful feeling inside every part of my body started painting me my legs were swollen closer to the joints...I never felt like vomiting or having a diarrhea...I had a terrible fever...I was freezing lying in the hot sun with no shirt on ...in Jamaica when we get poisoned we grater some bizzy make a warm cup of tea with the bizzy so I had a few cups and some allergy pills drink lots of water get lots of rest and healed after a few days.
Can you guys make a video on fishing around sharks
We do have a something planned for that but we need more footage to present hopefully we'll get a shark episode out sooner than later
Appreciate it boys I just when catch and eat a moray eel and trippin out lol
Ohh right on!!! We did a moral eel episode and we were fine. We actually jus recently caught ciguatera from kole🤦♂️
No worries
😎😎
Was gonna say you the first ever braddahs I seen eat Roi lol. I going try um next time. My friends use to catch um, dispatch um then throw um away and I use to think “waste fish”.
808ainosked Glad to have provided some info for a better understanding, I’ve been eating Roi my whole life and never got sick. Jus be careful to not eat around the insides and the head. Hope you enjoy the Roi 👌🤙
Are you guys monetized through Adsense yet or amazon affiliate? Just curious to know how you guys split the revenue?
Nope not just yet, still need a few hundred more hours of watchtime before starting the monetization process
What, if any precautions do you take when eating roi? Avoid belly meat? Or just a really super duper thorough cleaning of the inside cavity when gutting.
tom stetler well belly meat is ok jus make sure you clean out the insides really good and don’t cook with the head on.
Ok.... I’m a bang em brah
SAVAGE the Pirate go gettem bu 🤙
Here on Kauai its “north shore kole in the summer”. Sure enough in 2017 me n my kane got cig from north shore kole. It was rough! We were itchy and temperature-inversed for two months and so muscle-sore we could do nothing but lie on the floor. So yeah, kole is a direct-seaweed-eating surgeonfish right? Not a predator i dont think. Anyway, not cute.
Yup check out our Kauai episode, we did get cig from then Kole on the north too, and ya, no fun 😬
Does palemeto have it? This silver fish has long pointy fins sticking out from the top and belly and 3 to 4 silver stripes on each side
if its a reef based fish it is possible to have it
Let them avoid the Roi more for me ! 🤙🏼
Roi is a delicious fish, jus Gatta be careful 👌
@@FishNGrillz That can be said for just about anything in life 🤙🏼 Aloha
Can fresh water get it
No, it's a salt water thing .
I always crack up how you guys pronounce certain fish and the word ciguatera. Lol. For real though your guys videos are action! I have eaten Roi a few times when I was younger. That's a good tasting fish. I got cig one time from Ahi!
Lol I know right and where not the best readers either 😁😑. Trippy u got um from ahi. How were your symptoms?
@@FishNGrillz lol! Most people I talk to say they never heard of cig from ahi. At first I thought I had the flu and then on day 2 I had the reverse temperature situation. Everything cold felt hot and everything hot felt cold. Was a trip! My doctor couldn't confirm 100% was ciguaterra but he said he was super confident. I was eating choke ahi from a fisherman friend for like 3 months straight... Had to slow down on the fish for little while. Keep pumping out the videos 🤙🤙🤙
It gave me gas, changed my dog from a boy to a girl and a flat tire on my truck.
hmmmmm
Is it like salmonella where you get sick for a few days then are all right or is it something permanent? Thanks
yea pretty similar , but have heard of some people that have life long side effects.
I've not eaten roi but I plan to next time. And every time I hear someone say roi is cig prone I say so is kole and ulua... Usually ends the conversation. Hahaha
Oh yeah and your second video of fish n science is private.
Yep 👍 there was jus a spike at one point but hardly had any cases within the last 15 yrs, still Gatta be cautious but its a delicious fish
My mom got sick for two years and never fully recovered. Now my buddy got sick from baracuda and he is in bad shape.
Wow sorry to hear, that is rough. Cig is such a bummer. 🙏🏽🙏🏽. Just wondering since then have you guys stopped eating fish altogether? What what symptoms are still lingering?
FishNGrillz my mom did stop eating fish and a lot of other stuff. The nerve pain lasts for a while.
I may have got this from canned tuna one time
Oh wow thats crazy
@@FishNGrillz i thought it got poisoned by some bad spring water but I think it was more likely it could have been this because I was living off grid and eAting a lot of spaghetti mixed with canned tuna
@@FishNGrillz they tested me for ecoli and stuff and didn’t find anything
@@FishNGrillz I have no idea if Tuna can even get it do you?
Interesting to know tho thx, i suppose it is possible
Mahalo for the 411 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
U know!
Foof i probably got ciguateria and never even know
Micah Boy well most fish carry it, as long as you don’t consume the guts then you should be fine. Ciguatera levels seem to be high in other parts of the world
You guys are awesome and this is really important information. My question to you is are their tests as I have heard there are actual ways to test a fish to see if it has the toxin. True or false?.
Also..You guys are locals and you probably have built up an immunity to the toxin thru small doses of over the years like the indigenous people of the Caribbean.
Bottom line who cares! Keep fishing keep eating we are lovin your videos.You guys are awesome. Those palani curl up tho man cmon you cant eat those!
terrance anthon Mahalo for the support appreciate it and well the test are waaay pricey and the results are never accurate, so it’s a waste of time and money. And I guess your right with the building up of tolerance, never really thought of it that way.
WAs told that once you get em, you get em forever? what's the facts on that? Idk
Joseph Domingo well in rare cases the toxins could sit in your body for a while, but eventually it’ll pass through your digestive system.
@@FishNGrillz sweet! Mahalos
I going try I think lol, shit I’ve ate alligator 🐊 acouple times 😂
haha alligator is great!
True story hawaiian main ting not poison we eat em
Kaironic Hayn yessssah bro 🤙💯
In these times of Pandemic, this seems the least of our worries. Staying home from getting the Corona virus vs Ciguatera from eating FISH 🐟.
This ones for you guys 🍻🤙🍻🤙
Stay safe get fed! 🍻🤙🏼🤙🏼
Ciguateria 😂
Lol 🤦🏽♂️
