- COMMERCIAL TUNA FISHING IN THE MINDANAO SEA.
I joined a trip out of General Santos, one of the southernmost cities of the Philippines, into the Mindanao Sea (the northern part of the Celebes Sea) to see how commercial tuna fisheries work.
This was a tiring, but really interesting look into a side of life that many have not ever considered.

As a foreigner living here full time, I truly appreciate foreign vloggers like yourself and Kyle. You guys are authentic and show the true beauty of Philippines. ❤
they're actually documentarists no makeup, no script, real life, the true reality show ! I'm thankful for them a lot of good ones like KD here. !

Hi
The peak of Vlogging. No crew, just one man production team. Amazing KD! You are on the top of your game.
I will apply a crew of my kumander D we go anywhere,anytime and anyplace 💪
KD, one of your absolute best blogs yet. Dozens of “foreign” vloggers in the Philippines now, but only a tiny fraction, maybe no others, could have done this episode. I’m not even sure I can use the word “foreign” anymore when referring to you and the Philippines. This is where you really excel…showing hard working, everyday, Filipinos with a compassion, care, and camaraderie no one else can beat. More like this please.
A vast deep ocean. A huge school of tuna. The amazingly raw, intense and hard life of this crew of skilled Filipino fishermen. And one curious British vlogger who took a boat ride to an adventure of a lifetime.
Anselm/Kumander D, your video CAPTURED several vignettes of the life at sea that these fishermen and their families will TREASURE forever. It's a GIFT you've given them - documenting their livelihood.
For your viewers like me, it was a feast and a treat. Next time I see a tuna at the Public Market, I'll remember the hardwork of the CREW that brought it there. A new APPRECIATION indeed.
I am a professional fisherman, I have fished all my life!
Thank you my friend for the wonderful reminder of my hard work.
Now I'm disabled, but I often want to go back to the sea!
Yes i agree the the fisherman his life is not complete if he is far away from the sea
salute to all fisherman!!I respect a lot of them cus my father he is fisherman to.
Helo
These fishermen are legends! They deserve so much respect.
Give the exact salary and incentives
I agree

YOU ARE UNDENIABLY A LEGEND K. DAOT!!!!! A vlogger who goes not only beyond the icing and cake itself!!!!! WIshing more subscribers and viewers for you and people who you help !!!!!
My salute and gratitude to this hardworking fisherman !!! Wishing them and their family stable and comfortable life!!!!!
I also wonder why he can handle this job since its a hardworks compare to his lifestyle in uk, we really respect his humbleness to go beyond and level up these harsworking fishermen. We really loves watching these kind of documentaries.salute kumander D!
What a great vlog! I bet not a lot of Filipinos see how hard these fishermen work. They deserve to be recognized. Thanks for trusting your camera to the diver to take underwater footage. He did an amazing video. Your content for this vlog is awesome. I truly respect these hardworking Filipinos that I won't ever make "hangyo" with the price of fish knowing how much effort is involved in catching them. Looking forward to more adventures.
Teresita = You and I watched this vlog with the same lens!! 🙂 👍🏻
Amazing! I just hope their employer takes care of them with all the benefits covered...
12:47 Amazing underwater footage! 😱👍 This job is intense!
agree, that part is amazing
I knew it!. Kumander D can make a very good documentary. And what I like about this is his ability to make a personal connection that makes the crew warm up to him and talk more on the personal level. Many people can make documentaries but only few can personally connect
You’ve outdone yourself once again with this award winning vlog Kumander! Amazing!! 😊
.. so much respect for fishermen and farmers alike.. they labor for the food that are served in our tables.. Stay healthy and be safe out there or where ever you are. Same for you Kumander.. stay healthy and be safe always..
It is like a National Geographic Documentaries. i really appreciate on how you tell such awesome adventure kumander. But this will be good if you can translate all your talks in filipino. Go kumander!!! keep safe
Agree!
Subtitles will do..
Thanks so much! I really appreciate this 🙂 Unfortunately my Tagalog/Filipino isn't so great so I'd have to find a translator para sigurado! In the future 🙂
Ok....
Bisaya dialect still a Pilipino.. 😊
This is timely. In England and Ireland, there is a growing call from fishing boat operators to loosen immigration requirements to allow Filipino Fishermen, not just seafarers, to work over there.
Apparently, even before the Brexit, and further compounded by the pandemic, the regular source for migrant fishermen, Portugal and Greece, have dwindled.
Indeed, but not for the right reasons. Only one, because they're so much cheaper labor.
@@Ben-rw7wg To be fair, there are fishing boat companies that ARE paying their migrant fishermen from the Philippines and other nationalities with extensive commercial fishing experience well.
The British government's issue is with the language barrier.
And this video somewhat sheds some light on their concern.
just bring them in, no need to pay them welfare like all the other freeloaders, all they want is a job to support their families back home. They're quite happy to just work most of the day, sleep 8hrs and eat the rest. Simple life.
Awesome video kumander need some serious award recognition for his videos
Greetings from Cebu!
Highest respect for you and the FEARLESS fishermen of Mindanao !👍👏🇵🇭
This vlog is needed at this moment, the tension in *West Philippine* sea is getting high, together with illegal importation of sea foods.
This is one of a kind vlog, love it! Kudos to the fishermen.
Your best video to date in my humble opinion. 💯 A.W.E.S.O.M.E (When my 3 5 and 8 year old all want to watch it from start to end 😮 it tells me its a video for all ages) 🎉 Very very well done.
Oh wow glad your kids loved it too! Thanks so so much!
@@KumanderDaotKD, Told you it was good look at the views!!🎉 Congrats. Could be a Mil view in the making! ❤
@@LeahandBlair I never expected it to go like this! It has twice the views as Sitangkai did after 10 hours... Crazy! Worth the 4 days of tiredness haha
@@KumanderDaotIt has ALL the elements that make a great video!🤫 Always story first, then emotion, tension, music, educational, intriguing and fantastic camera work. Everytime you do a video include these elements and you have the recipe for retention. 🤙The Al Gore has rhythm checks these off.. somehow! 😮
@@LeahandBlair thanks so so much... I just try to make videos that I'd love to watch myself... Slowly but surely! By the way, loving your videos reuniting people! Those are some special moments!
I have eaten tuna from a can all my life. Sometimes I forget the incredible hardworking men who make it possible for me to enjoy a fish that I love half way around the world. Funny to think that I will be calling GenSan my home in a few years. Thanks for the great vlog!
So many canning factories there! The tuna is so flaky! Stay safe!
The under water footage,is the best part😍❤️
This could go down as part of a proper docu series, kumander! Salamat bai!
Youre doing a great job, kumander. Thank u for taking us there.
Pls hug our fishermen for us. They deserve our love.
Wow...what an amazing documentary. The life of fishshermens of GenSan Philippines. Thank you KD...with this, we know the dangers facing by these men. Thank u for their hardwork so that the people wil have fish in the market to buy.
It feels fulfilling to see the big catch and thankful to these fishermen for their hardwork. I was born and raised in GenSan but I never experienced such tremendous job of fishing. Kudos to our fishermen!
16:13 Dolphin photobomb!😮
Commander Daot is a very nice british story teller🤘
Out of all the videos I've watched, this one impressed me the most. I admire your effort and talent in telling stories about these legendary fishermen. This is not a normal video content, it's even better than the Discovery Channel, the effort here is truly amazing.
KD was not blogging actually he was documenting...more power KD
Overwhelming love and support gained by the fishermen. Thanks to the brilliant content of KD. This job is dangerous, adventurous and fun at the same time. Even as a woman, I would love to own a fishing boat and fish with employees if I would be young 😂😂😂
Salute to those hard working and very patient deepsea fishermen! They deserve tons of respect!
Ur a legend for vlogging this...
Really appreciate u.. I'm from gensan.
These fishermen don't get paid enough for their hard work at sea..
WOW! 😳 I've never seen this side of Philippines. Your vlog is amazing.
what an effort salute to those fishermen, thanks kumander and to all the fishermen
Love to see dolphins in this vlog even in your background while you speak commander daot. Thankful also that our ocean here still abundance.
Flipper in the back ground was classic-and the underwater footage so supreme Pina in slow motion
This is tremendously astonishing episode, knowing and learning the extra ordinary lifestyle of the amazing people, this is how truly becoming a Filipino pages. More of this. Cheers
Kumander Daot not becoming filipino vlog
Trusting your camera to the legends and thé scenes is amazingly rewarding., i salute you ỉn both hands together in the same time.,, long live kumander 🙌🏽
My uncle from GenSan used to do this. This is hard work, not only physically but mentally. They would be at sea for months, imagine in the middle of the ocean with no communication with your family, in a small boat crowded with men. He told me stories of some people going insane and taking their own life, there was one they had to tie down because he was threatening to kill everyone, and the scariest part was the weather, the ocean is unforgiving and can claim your life anytime if it wants to. He's retired from that job now and does tricycle deliveries and preparing food. I do miss the abundant fish and dried fish ((bulad) we used to get before but its better he is safer now
Woow so amazing, kudos to the Filipino fishermen!!! And thank you so much KD for filming this! I do hope there will be a next generation fishermen like them in the future. You capture every aspect of their working life. From very hard working, to the very innovative or ingenious tools they are using, to the working traits they are showing, that they seems they're just having fun doing fishing. Anyway, I just hope they are well compensated by their agalons. 👍👍👍
salute to kumander D for featuring our fisherman
Much love and respect for this fisherman who always provide fish for our table 👏👏👏❤❤
Being from General Santos I’ve always know Tuna and Fishing to be the main industry of the city early in my childhood I vaguely remember being aboard a Fishing vessel and seeing how they caught fish using nets. This is the first video that gives me a prospective of what it’s like to Fish tuna in deep water far away from the coast line and occasionally facing the elements is a different league from those who fish closer to shore!
Looking forward of the continuation of this documentary.Will watch it over again with NO ADDs skipping🙏🏽
Kudos to our Fisherman...Mabuhay kayong Lahat....may the Fish God's bless there voyage and keep them safe ..no one can Kill the Filipino Spirit..No One...
Amazing coverage of real, tough work out there to provide fish on our tables! These men are examples of pure grit, effort, and camaraderie. They work flawlessly in a system that regardless how manual some parts are, is fluid enough to ensure success. And the dolphin popping up behind you in one shot was awesome! Thanks for bringing this to us. Can't wait for the next one!
Really impressed by these guys. Such a well oiled machine
@@KumanderDaotThe new commercial model of Mega Sardines hahaha
@@raymartmirando8102 hahaha crikey
That's one for the book Anselm, showing the hardworking fishermen out there in the deep blue sea.....hopefully our people will appreciate these fishermen, the hard work that they are doing for us and for their families....Ingatan nawa ng Dios.....God bless 🧡❤❤❤❤❤
You should continue doing documentary-like contents like this kumander
The best documentary I've ever watched so far from your channel kumander. Padayon kumander ayaw undang ug vlog .
Thanks so much! Really appreciate this!
Hoping to see more videos like these. One of the best documentary I've seen. I hope you can also upload about big fish/tuna.
I can attest to the fact that the people of the Philippines are very, very special. I have done international trade with them for the past 40 years. They are hard working proud people that have earned my utmost respect.
Wow.

the genuine excitement can clearly show in your face and glad that you have covered one of the most underrated jobs here on the PH documenting fisherman's daily routine catching fish. God bless you amigo!
