Transcription:
Just before the merciless winter sets in, it's time for the Dainichi Koi Farm to harvest their biggest fish from the mud pond. The brothers Futoshi Mano and Shigeru Mano have been looking forward to this moment all year.
It's a short 10 minute drive from the farm that takes us to one of his grand mountain mud ponds. The Dainichi Koi Farm is one of the largest Koi breeders in all of Japan. Running the farm successfully requires discipline and care. Fortunately, you can leave that to the Japanese, who are known for their hard work. The brothers give instructions here and there to make the work as easy and safe for the fish as possible.
The emptying of the mud ponds is done days in advance. Millions of liters of meltwater are drained through special drains towards the great river called Shinano. When the water level has dropped enough, a grower can start harvesting their important koi.
With a polite nod, one of the staff gives the signal to Shigeru San to start. After months in the mud pond, it's time to see his beloved fish again.
While making our documentary in June this year, Shigeru San showed us some of his favorite fish or as he calls them: his pets. These fishes and this moment is an important moment for Shigeru. How have the fish grown and are they all healthy.
The work is physically demanding. Large bags of water and the fish are brought by the staff to the big truck. With this truck the fish are transported to the farm.
Hunter, the owner of SelectKoi in the US, can help with the harvest today. A completely free workout. Shigeru is having pictures taken for his company today. I decide to step out of the frame and film from the other side. Each round the fish seem to get bigger and bigger.
While we enjoy the fish I would like to ask you to watch my documentary. I made this documentary in the summer where I got exclusive access to breeding the Koi. I put a link in the corner of this video and an end screen that you can click on at the end of the video.

Aaaha I like koi fish
Absolutely stunning monster fish...WOW! I find it ironic that we koi keepers will spend thousands of dollars on filtration to ensure crystal clear water in which to house and see our koi when some of the largest and best koi in the world come out of mud ponds where they are barely visible even when the water is only a few inches deep. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more videos in 2023.
Nice broo, greetings from us in Indonesia
Lovely video Yvo. Thanks for sharing ♥️
Strange world: like it
They are pretty fish. I had a gold fish that was a solid copper color back in the 1970s. I loved that fish.
Shigeru Mano cool 😎 person

It's a whoot that they use a fluorescent pink kiddie pool to temporarily hold the fish before they go on the truck.
Wow nice koi
Another great video I thought my fish where big but those fish make mine look small keep it up love your videos happy new year 🎉🎉🥳
We always see the harvest. Hopefully next year we can see how they bring them back to the mud pond.
Yvo I’m having the hardest time comprehending the body’s on those fish 😮 simply incredible! What a special privilege that must have been to be apart of that harvest! Thanks for sharing with us! Great job Hunter sure you felt the burn for a few days after that workout 👍
Cheers Yvo. Wish you a very happy new year. Is dropsy in koi contagious & in anyway connected with overfeeding bro? Kindly share your knowledge.
How much the jumbo koi fish?
A bit late to the party! How old are these majestic fish?
Some are between 5 and 10 I think
@@TheKoiPartner Thanks!
❤️
Gorgeous ! I'm surprised the breeders call the fish 'pieces', something you'd call inanimate objects - they love their fish, so it seems odd to hear this ?
Well, they care about the fish, but they need to know how many fish are coming out of the mud pond. It’s kind of numbers game
Yvo this was an amazing video. Loved the mud pond harvest. Some large amazing koi filmed here.
Please check your Instagram because I sent you a message about a week ago. Thank you for doing such an amazing job filming this harvest. 👍☝️👍
Thnx mate ❤️
