Catch, Clean, And Cook: ATLANTIC SALMON
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- This was actually the last video from my recent Cayuga lake trip, but I thought the catch and cook theme would play nicely with the holidays!
I fished Cayuga lake trolling surface baits and working deep for a few hours and hooked a 23" salmon on a 4" keitech easy shiner with a 3/4 oz jighead.
Mario, co-owner of Brooklyn's SottoVoce - sottovocerestau... was graceful enough to put up with me as we did the next step which was cold smoking a salmon. We are by no means experts on this but it was a fun way to do something different.
After catching, the salmon went into ice (well covered and bled) on my cooler for about 24 hours. After fillet we went with two different brines.
Simple Brine:
2 Cups salt (we said four in the video but it was two oops)
2 cups sugar
3 cloves of garlic
pepper
1 gallon of water
Spiced Brine
Same as Above plus
1 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon jerkseasoning
3 tablespoons pickling spice
Mario has a homemade smoker and set one for 24 hours and one for 12 hours after about a 16 hour brine. Both picked up different flavors and different unique qualities.

This was special and I thank Mario for putting up with me to complete this one. We also did a catch and cook skate and tautog at his place too. You'll want to take precautions if attempting cold smoking by freezing it at -8 degrees.
He doesn't serve this dish at the place but if you are in the area here's his restaurant: sottovocerestaurant.com/
This was great. I cant wait to see the Tog one!!
jay love Why you worrying bout another man's hair?
What kind of skate did you guys cook and eat 😮
EliasVFishing Never seen your face that happy with a catch and cook. Another cool video have a good day and stay safe
Have you ever considered doing white fish for a catch n' cook?
I want that. def the best catch and cook yet
Mario...MAESTRO!!!! Absolute Master!!! Cappo di tutti li capi!!
You gave everybody a lesson about how to honor a fish.
From cleaning, not spoiling a single piece (I'm sure you would make a broth or a fumet with the bones..LOL)
I'm very critic in how people filet/clean fish in youtube videos. I only have compliments for you...
This is one of the best videos ever seen on that subject.
Now about the cooking.
You put it in another dimension, the absolute upper level.
All your ancestors are proud of you at this moment. You brought heaven to earth. (hai portato il paradiso sulla terra)
Bellisimo!!! Wonderful!!!
Fred.
Thanks man, Mario did an excellent job on this and I am very thankful of that. I wanted to give a more unique and rare catch the respect it deserved.
Wow. Grazie mile fred. That was such a wonderful comment. As Elias can tell you, conservation doesnt end by throwing back short fish, it continues in the kitchen by reducing waste.
Cool, this is common with us in northern Sweden, cold smoked or cured or even cured and then cold smoked salmon or sea trout. It tastes amazing!
Your boy Mario made a work of art!!! Gotta be the best catch and cook I've seen.
Ramon Hernandez thank you. It was a lot of fun working with elias. Weve tried doing a catch and cook together for a year. Glad it finally happened
@@mariodibiase1576 Hey buddy im from RI but next trip I take to new York i plan on hitting up your restaurant! Would it be ok to say hello?
Killer how he left the head on. That had to be outstanding
Cheek meat was out of this world
Back in the day (late Dec 1980) temperature 10F there were large spawning runs of Salmon and trout. You fished at dawn/dusk preferably cloudy days and threw spoons out from Taughannock Pt and North Point. One morning at 7:10am a landlocked salmon hooked into my lure in 5'-6' of water. The salmon quickly jumped 3 ft and threw the spoon. Went there dec 31 in the afternoon this year 50F/sunny and the last day of the season. water was 3' deep. No one was getting any bites. Still wonderful.
Elias, this is the Pinnacle in your catch and cook videos!!!
WHAT A MASTERPIECE!!
You became James Bond...You earn a License to kill!!!! LOL...
No words are enough. Just INCREDIBLE, AMAZING!!!
Really fantastic episode. I know this one was a lot of work so we can't expect this all the time, but this is the sort of out-of-the-box video nobody really does on youtube, and we're so glad you did.
I was riveted the whole video. It was really good. One of your best. Can't wait for Salmon River.
your dedication is so admirable! another awesome adventure! good job!
Absolutely love the filet job. How he said he wanted to get as much meat as he could. Saving the head for presentation was definitely a chefs touch. Did you get the cheeks by chance?
Sean Curley i wish i could post pictures here. We tore up those cheeks.
That salmons orange color looks amazing. The farmed fish you buy at store look so different.
Good job Mario!
Data Recovery NJ thank you
Most wild salmon has a red color, I believe this one is orange because it is in the spawning phase.
For instance, I live in California and fish for King Salmon. The meat is nice and red, similar to the store. However it's wild.
Takes me back to the pacific salmon we used to catch and smoke. Even making our own salmon dip. Was sooooo good. Thanks for triggering some excellent memories.
Now thats one C&C I would love to have have joined you in enjoying, Elias. Excellent job man!!
When you get a Finger Lakes salmon that's been feeding on a lot of scuds (freshwater shrimp) the meat is solid bright red just like a saltwater salmon and tastes absolutely amazing!
Best catch and cook on the tube by far. Great Job guys. Cold smoked salmon will be on the
Christmas menu.
Just wanted to say thank you to both of you for the show. Sharing with my wife as it's great entertainment for both: anglers and cook. Subscribed too.
Nicely done! Smoke salmon is awesome especially the Atlantic Wild. Didn't realize the time involved in the whole process but definitely worth the work. Thx for sharing.
I want so hard to take a chunk of that darker smoked fish. It looks so good
Why would anyone give his video a thumbs down crazy
Atlantic salmon are great fighting and beautiful fish!! over here in ireland I started fishing for them last year and managed to catch three of them after many hours fishing for them and learning theyre ways!! Thats why I agree with youre friend,its definitely a fish of a life time,but its like that every time you catch one,trolling is good but fishing for them on a river thats three meters wide and then hooking up is something you never forget!! 😀🎣🎣
Awesome video! It was cool to see the whole smoking process. I got a chance to land some atlantics up here in CT they are a beautiful fish. Tight lines!!
Great collaboration, great video and the results one could just imagine the taste. Makes you want to go and get a smoker just to try and recreate but I’ll just go to his restaurant next time in town. This one really hit the mark.
Top quality video my man. Me and my moms watched this while we ate our McDonald’s and got a little envious I’ll be honest. Keep it up
Love it! Smoked Salmon is awesome. I have an Asian recipe for that too.
Asian sounds awesome!
yeah everybody loves a little Asian !!
I have never seen an Asian style smoked salmon recipe. Please share.
Wow awesome video. You have an awesome network of friends Elias. I bet that fish was top notch!
That was a great vid. Salmon cooking must have been a treat. Payed off for the catch. That woukd be a good catch and cook featuring mMario as the cook. Not taking away from your cooking but it might have something good in the future. Catching fish and having other people cook it in there best way.
OH absolutely. I am fine for a basic prep and to tell you about the fish. But the culinary work goes into the other guys. I'll never boast about my cooking skills ever. I like this format A LOT, but it's tough to get peoples schedules together especially when I have a fresh catch!
Everything feel right into place with this catch and cook. Hopefully elias will invote me back for some more
I never cared for smoked fish myself but I think that would make me change my attitude real quick. That looks delicious when it's all said and done.
Love Sotto Voce...used to eat there a lot when I lived down the street.
Mario really went all out and took great care of that fish. What was the total prep time, first cut to first bite?
Fishing With LardAlmighty workwise the prep and brine take about an hour or so. The rest is either refrigerator time (12 h brining, 12 h curing) and smoke time ( 12h or 24h ) the work is really in filleting the fish.
Awesome. I really got into smoking meets over the summer but I haven't cold smoked anything yet. Really, really want to do salmon! Thanks for this man, that looked really great.
Great to see Mario getting nothing but love, nice job.
Ak Fishing i just had a chance to scroll down to the messages. Im totally humble by all the love. Feeling awesome today
Fascinating video!
so mouth-watering..it's killing me. Great episode indeed!
Man, if Zabars Nova Salmon bagel with cream cheese is already delicious, I can't imagine how delectable your and Mario's salmon was.
Wow those are some gorgeous fish
Yeah they are really awesome. Some documented natural reproduction in Lake Champlain. Cayuga has a very healthy population of them as well but it is still supported by the government. The thiamine (probably spelled that wrong) lacking from their diet is supposedly preventing them from reproducing. However, the newly invasive gobies are rich in thiamine, so maybe there is hope on the horizon.
EliasVFishing that’s very interesting! hopefully! I’d love to catch some wild salmon one day.
Oh man that looks so good! When you busted the bagels out at the end I lost It... I want an invite next time lol
Thanks Mag, I got our salmon river vid coming along this week too.
This is definitely your coolest and most entertaining c&c. Thanks!
This was a super awesome catch and cook! If you ever pull any cool fish please do it with Mario!
best catch and cook yet!!!!!!!!!
Great Video!
The fish looked so good hands down he explained everything perfect I will try this I know it won’t come out as good as his but I will try it out!! Thanks for this video keep up the great work! 👌
What a great video. You caught a.fish and made. A very special event out of it. Thanks
absolutely gorgeous catch/cook, I need to start smoking something!
That reaction to the first bite of 24 hr lol
Really cool to see the time and respect given to the fish
I need to try that smoked shad. Shad fed the American colonies.
Very, very impressive. That one will be hard to top!
There was a time. That the bars on the Oregon coast had smoked perch just in bowls to munch on like peanuts. It was free with your beer. How times have changed.
I have brined and smoked bluefish and it is really goooooood.
Love your vids. In Maine, if you catch an AS, you have to release it without removing it from water. Great job with smoking it. Really makes me miss my Ithaca days.
I am due to get back to Duluth and try and catch an Atlantic Salmon.
That was a great catch and cook, it looked amazing, I've never had salmon before but after watching this I wanna try it now! 👍🏼🎣🎣🎣
Cape Cod Canal Fishing ya live in cape cod and haven't tried salmon? What's wrong with you lol
mt magoon haha I know man, just have always ate white flesh fish all my life, cod, haddock, striped bass, tautog etc. I WILL be trying it soon lol
EXCELLENT Video!!! You both were Spot On! Grazi
This really was great. Elias, I watch all of your videos and I love seeing how hard you're working and how much it is paying off with very high quality content. Your channel has moved to the next level this year.
I have long thought that you should partner with local chefs for the catch and cooks- nice to see you did that on this one and have a couple more coming. Keep up the great work!
Thanks man. I like this format of mixing it up with someone that knows how to prep something special. It's hard to get schedules to work out most of the time, but when I can do it going forward, I will! Thanks man, I'm hoping to spend a lot more time outside the tri-state area next year and finally get to go around a little bit.
Elias I had such a hard-on watching this video!!! Your friend knows exactly what he's doing bro!
E: Agree with everyone else. Your best one yet.
My buddy is moving to NY and i told him about Sotto Voce and he should be checking it out in a few weeks
Best catch and cook yet! Awesome video!
Best episode I’ve seen yet.
I love this video. You seem to enjoy making this video can see it in your face.
Nice going Elias, now I'm going to have to run out and get a onion bagle with lox.
Stunning show bud!
I'm going to have to try this with the salmon get catch out here in the NW. Keeping the smoke chamber below 80F if going to be the challenge.
Cool Video. It would be awesome if Mario showed the views how to make one of those smoking rigs.
Great catch and cook. Love the guests
Omg Elias I just have water in my mouth after that video 🤤🤤🤤👍
You should do a great lakes trip
This is my first video of yours, you are like a better sounding Ray Romano. Really liked your video and definitely jealous. I’m subbed.
I spend alot of time chasing salmon. Im surprised to see you catch one on that Keitech lol. Streamers, Mooselooks, and DB Smelts work great. You gotta know what depth they are running tho, hard to do without your fishfinder tho.
Mario seems super cool man! Would he ever go on a fishing trip and do a video with you???
Hunter M thank you. We've been out on the yaks together and yes definitely want to do the catch and cook from beginning to end toi.
Wow outstanding!👏👏
Nice job. Nothing like knowing a real deal chef
Mouth watering 😋
Great catch and cook. I have a tendency to overcook salmon
Elias is this the same Salmon I caught in Cayuga Lake. We got way more Lake Trout and like one Brown. I fished a week and got a few Salmon. I was fishing in Taughannoc falls state park. Had a blast and the people treated me good.
These guys are having a blast i love it
Not sure if anyone asked this yet, but I would love to know more about Mario's "jerry rigged" setup with the Brute! Looks like a winner!
mouth water drooling..i am thinking lochs and cream cheese..never had that but man I wants some lochs and cream cheese now.
best video yet Elias!
Mario is legit man.. Are his go kart skills on par with his knife and and smoking skills?
You guys looked like you had so much fun making this! Love the channel
Two Kids i had a lot of fun with this.
Nice , loved the vid ... beautiful fish , well caught and well culled. Let me know if you take a trip out to the Oregon coast!
That was just a pleasure to watch. Much appreciated.
I caught myself watching with a shit-eating grin, envious of the taste test. Great video.
nice video Elias that salmon looked great
Beautiful cut and color
Great video. I really enjoyed this.
Ik this is off topic but try smoking mahi mahi it's insanely good ive been using it with hickory in a homemade smoker and it's off the charts
Amazing best catch and cook video everything was unique about this one
You should get a couple crab traps and go get you some nice winter crabs and cook em up. Also, try a trash fish cook with those green crabs you use as bait... Curious to see if there's any real meat in them or anything.
That was awesome! I love locks on a bagel and to catch it fresh from the lake and smoke it! made me drool.
Excellent video. Enjoyed the smoking information.
Drooling.......
Heck yea man!!
Awesome video.
Thats on my bucket list.
Awesome absolutely
oh how I miss my NY bagels, my mouth is watering.
the shad really interests me.... I would have NEVER thought of eating them, I mean... they're bait. Then again, I love bluegill and to a catfish guy those are bait....
Awesome video. Maybe your best.
Thats is so awesome ! I think one of your best videos !!
Oh mama Mia ! Looks so so awesome !
