There's a lot of marketing going on here. basically it's Chinook salmon, NOT a different sub species. They're just being grown to larger sizes. Also Chinook are not native to New Zealand, they were introduced, and New Zealand is the largest exporter of Chinook salmon in the world, so saying that they "didn't even know they were there" is disingenuous.
898792 Thank you for toning down the Hype and excitement about the farm raised King Salmon that is being farm raised in New Zealand . I am not sure if New Zealand had established natural Salmon runs by transplanting them from one of the Native runs of the Pacific Salmon.
So basically, there's something fishy going on here ?
@@fasx56 King is an American term. They're Chinook, or blackmouth in the fish trade.
@@898792 let's be fair, they never called it a species of salmon. They called it a "type" of salmon. And to say it was "discovered" is still pretty accurate.
"We can't tell you where it is."
1. They use water from the Te Waikoropupū Springs.
2. Seals come "all the way from the sea" to eat the fish.
In other words, it's near Golden Bay, New Zealand.
I laughed at that too. New Zealanders know where that place is.
@@caravanlifenz haha yeah I just google earthed it . its right next to the spring
Can't you walk NZ in like 2 hours?

A fence to keep the seals from trekking through the forest to get these special salmon? People paying $17,000 for one farmed salmon? Farmed salmon who's flesh is gray until it's dyed pink? I live in Washington State in the US, Tyee just means it's a big Chinook salmon. Fishermen get $15 a pound for wild Chinook (Sockeye only gets $10 a pound). It is neither rare or mythical, just more upscale that what you would find in a can. Fact checking this on the internet probably would have only set you back only 5 minutes.
I think he said $1,700 for a 60 kg ( 132 lb ) fish = $12.50 per lb. approx.
@@harrycurrie9664 I spent 3 more minutes of my life finding that part and you're right, 17 hundred, which is in the realm of reasonable. After another 2 minute investment of my time I learned (from a sketchy AI summary) that salmon farmers now feed supplements to their fish so their flesh isn't grey anymore. Maybe if this guy fed them some of that wasabi to give them a spicy kick he would have something special. That or feed them coffee beans and roast what they poop out. For some reason people pay big money for coffee that was naturally processed by exotic animals. Who knows, maybe that coffee would be high in omega-3's.
I use to fish for those and not as uncommon as the video says. Wild fish always taste better than the farmed ones like that
All depending.
Growing up in Milwaukee, WI, my family was poor enough that availability of meat was sometimes an issue.
During these times, we'd go down under the viaducts and catch Steelhead and Coho that liked to spawn near a water treatment plant.
Those fish basically tasted like rubber with a fishy aftertaste.
I don't want to think of how many PCBs we might have taken in from the meat.
These are just farmed raised salmon. The best Chinook salmon are wild caught spring chinook from the pacific northwest. Meat tastes like it butter.
Damn straight
Over 100 pounds?
I live at the tip of the Olympic peninsula in port Angeles. The fish here are wonderful.
@@adrielburned6924 I lived on Whidbey back in the 80's. Beautiful back then.
@@gregpierquet5818 Rivers' Inlet in BC has had Chinook (blackmouth, American named Tyee or King) well over 100 lbs. in the fish count barrel, BUT that's loaded with eggs or milt for spawning. They only go up about seven miles to spawn.
Goofy New Zealanders are falling for this marketing scam lol. I am American, these salmon are common.
I haven't seen a salmon over 100 pounds in the states. Where are you fishing?
@@gregpierquet5818 Alaska
@@gregpierquet5818 the 100 pounders ran in the Columbia river in Washington and Oregon before the grand coulee dam was built. There’s pictures of Native American fisherman holding them at the mouth of the Columbia river nearly a hundred years ago. The dam basically pushed that sub species to extinction.
@@gregpierquet5818and I think op is referring to chinook salmon being common, which they very much are.
Using world’s cleanest spring to farm a non native fish
the freshwater trout in NZ are also invasive.................and delicious.l
I should have never clicked on this... advertisement... misinformation...inaccurate...silly...
This is definitely discouraging.
Another invasive species and it was introduced!
Damn. And I thought the American media was full of shit.
I remember seeing salmon over six feet long going up the fish ladders at the Dalles Dam on the Columbia River in The Dalles ,Oregon in the 70s.True story.
World record line caught King is 98 pounds. They've netted Kings over 105 pounds.
free advertising for a multi million dollar business. why dont they give a struggling business free advertising?
because its not "free" mate :)
and they wrap it like news to camouflage lol
Because you are not a member of their club and neither am i , they only do favors for their own
@@optimumpcyt whew??? what club? dur
@@geomundi8333 it's a brotherhood, if you know you know, if you don't know you should read the Bible. It tells you the world is ran by people in high places and the ones they serve are not flesh and blood but spiritual beings. This is a foreign language to you if you don't follow Jesus. You will just be lost in a storm with no direction. You might of heard of this club though. It's the one that actors and singers have to sell their soul to join and become famous.
He's a New Zealander who has done well for himself and employs other New Zealanders. Why shouldn't we be happy for him and celebrate his success? Why be just another bitter Kiwi guy with tall poppy syndrome who is jealous of another Kiwi?
The most ancient and noble art of tricking rich people out of their money. Imagine being able to convince someone that a farmed salmon is worth 1700 dollars its almost art.
So someone from BC here (caught a Tyee) 1. Tyee = King in "Chinook jargon" which was a pigeon language between first nations and white traders. 2. Tyee is given as a measurement of weight over 30lbs and Spring Salmon.
Just so long as its not mushy. Same goes for Steel Head Trout. Mushy = gmo
100 people? bullsh*t
The news is full of lies. So the fish was just recently discovered but the natives already had a name for it right. Tell me both the truth and the lie at the same time.
Yes doublespeak
in the mid 70's used to catch king salmon over 70lbs on the kenai river in Alaska but over fishing by commercial fisheries and un restricted native fishing is destroying the salmon population.
Wow. Another fish farm. Big deal. Nothing natural or exciting about it.
amazing, you can tell the guy giving the tour is passionate about what hes doing!
an old car salesman doing what he does best...
Seafood, untrustworthy 😂
I'm Australian and I'm having trouble with the ascent lol and I'm sure that station won't be getting ads for seafood ever again
Fish farm fish are disgusting....
@4:10 the woman host says, "Oh, I do love semen." See, New Zealand? THAT'S why you need to learn to pronounce vowels properly.
What if she just likes semen, and wanted the audience at home to know?
What if she just likes semen and wanted viewers to know?
The only reason they are growing large is they are unable to swim up a fresh water river to breed. That fresh water causes salmon to deteriorate as they search for a suitable place to lay eggs. The King salmon in Alaska become very large because there are less dammed rivers that keep total numbers down.
i’m not sure if freshwater is what directly causes the deterioration of salmon. In the great lakes, salmon spend their whole lives in freshwater and only deteriorate after entering the spawning system, some even spend their whole lives in very large rivers. however, I am unfamiliar with the exact reason why they decline so rapidly after entering streams.
Lmao dude just making shit up
They’re going to be disappointed bc they DO NOT feed king salmon the correct diet.
Most farmed salmon fed petroleum based feed banned for land animals but fine for seafood
… the gmo’s are mushy before you cook them.
Great discovery, but do they still taste of putty like farmed salmon?
I guess they idiots didn't realize that they pretty much gave away the location of there super secret farm ,that no 1 is supposed to know the location of .. at the end of the clip they say that the water comes from some very specific natural spring , it's definitely narrows down the location of a farm for any would be poachers..ughh that's the end of that species...lol
I remember seeing pictures at the oregon maritime museum. Where they showed really really big long over sized salmon being harvested. These do not compare to those older giants of long ago.
No salmon could even feed 50 people let alone 100.
Jesus could do it.
no its just a selectively bred king (chinook) salmon
Now I’m starving.
100 people in one city? wtf, why the "in one city", 50 villagers?
Salmon is meh, Kahawai is without doubt the most underrated fish ever
"We can't tell you where this is" like that has ever stopped the internet. lol
I want 150 lb wild catfish
Largest salmon we ever caught was almost 6ft long and 100lbs out of dry creek in California before they rerouted that water way it's since almost dried up after it almost dried up we found an old wagon and the creek bed was littered with ol blue medicine bottles.
That would break the California state record of 88 pounds.
John McHatton
Fish so big it could feed 100 people. "It has been here since god knows when". I would think a fish THAT BIG, would be a little hard to miss....especially in a FISHERY!
It's not a secret when I already know where the place is
so Jeremy Wade didn't caught all monster fish in the world... he missed this one
I think it’s a gmo. ….but we just didn’t know it?
They say the Alaskan king salmon can pull a man into the freezing water to his death.
I have to agree with the guy at the end. Always be wary of seafood
Takata south island new Zealand
There were runs on the Oregon coast ,not gonna name the rivers, the late 70's into early 80's with dinosaur kings pushing a 100 & quite a few well over that , they were amazing.
they must have named the salmon after the lund tyee boat
You can catch King Salmon in the wild off San Francisco boat charters via the harbour or in North California rivers like the Sacramento get up to 30-60lbs huge fish. Better for you than farmed salmon !
She said she loves semen lol
If they are from BC and this guy says he was invited to catch one there it seems strange they would be in NZ. Clearly this is a fish farm, hopefully with the nice spring water there is no need for toxic chemicals to keep them healthy.
I have issues with that host on the right suggesting that fresh caught fish is somehow bad for you. Host on the left was looking like she was about to smack him too after what he said 😂
“So when do Trout (salmonids) have the shape of an Anvil?”
Wut in the world?!
Got those in my local bass pro tank
„I‘m Not into it“ hahaha
Farmed in fresh water.....yuk.
Yeah i need a bannana for scale
farmed Salmon is disgusting
I grew up fishing salmon of the pacific cost off Washington an Vancouver. A 60lb king maybe. But the chinooks are olny 20 to 35 on the larger side.
After eating an eel from a swamp I'll eat fish from the sea anytime
How much they coast per pounds
Omg this is the “Emergency Deffecation!” Lady
Over dramatic. These fish are part of a breeding program . They have them up to a massive size in 2years. What is not kept for the breeding program go to sea cages. These fish are then harvested. The breeding program is about getting the best feed conversion possible in as short a time as possible. The breeding program based on selecting the best and not on gene manipulation.
The tyee salmon is just a Chinook salmon aka king salmon that just get big. 40lbs or more.
A fantastic story about King Salmon.
In Canada they catch them every year and there wild .
Farmed fish is gross.
I think King salmon are not mushy before you cook them.
Farmed fish are no good. I live in Ireland 🇮🇪 and I just go to a river for an Atlantic sea trout or a salmon.
I sincerely hope you know what you are talking about.
Salmon aren't native to NZ.
May I point out hedgehogs?
What's the matter with their voices?
And you’re certain it’s a good thing?
I have caught 15 in a day kept 2 in Canada there very common up here
Farmed salmon are apparently one of the worst cancer causing foods out there because of what they're feed , pity cause they look mouth watering .
These aren’t regular salmon, they’re looked after differently
Not even good money if you have to grow them for 6+ years
It’s salmon…..🤷🏻♂️
These are farm-raised salmon guys they're not even going to be able to get their color of meet naturally from the ocean they're going to be feeding these things pellets is it just like Atlantic salmon it's all farm-raised and you don't eat that you don't eat anything that comes out of fresh water the specially raw
Gee wiz . A fish for the elite. They have their names on it. It would figure that this is centered in New Zealand .
They should share with the seals.
The waygu of Salmon lmao. In my language Tae means shit, so it makes sense being called Tyee Salmon, funny enough as i was typing this comment the reporter said its from Poo Poo spring 😂@4:00 lmao
Mercury content?
Poachers? Like the crown poached Māori land.
I think king salmon get bigger
Farm raised salmon are nasty🤮🤢
Just genetic modify. Is it good and safe for humans? They will say yes for sure. Where are the proof is safe?
Because it’s farmed and not wild I am good thank you probably more than not being said you know this is the world of deception
Nz farm salmon no good.
Beeg fush
Takaka
Over priced
Farmed fish are 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
😲😲😲😲
The cleanest river in the world is called poo poo💩😴
Franken fish
