Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup czcams.com/users/postUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.
There are at least 10 comments that have been posted asking where this spot is. There is a reason fisherman don’t “spot burn”, or give up there locations. Just imagine if they said where they were and everyone asking where it was showed up? It’d get fished out and ruin it for everyone. I’ve actually fished this exact spot and it’s tiny, especially dependent on the tide. Do your own research as to where fish are and reap the benefits, just as these guys have done.
Research literally means asking other fishermen where good spots are. Some of us live too far away to go saltwater fishing every weekend. We ask for information to make those rare trips worth the time and expense.
First foraging video I’ve watched was on Craig’s channel, then yours! Since then, I’m hooked 🥰 Learned a lot! Now, I’m eating wilds 😅 I even bought the “BAY AREA FORAGER” book ‘cos you’ve mentioned it in one of your vids! Sending you some love from Japan! Keep uploading 🥰
Been following the firebox channel for a couple years now. Such a great cooking tool. Love the radiant heat and direct flame it delivers. Shoutout to Firebox Stove and the family!
Damn, you should have kept that 60-70 pound sting ray you first caught. Grilled sting ray is crazy delicious. The meat is stringy, juicy and slightly more dense than fish. Hope you will return to the same spot and catch one to try on video.
To all the people that are saying poor shark and disliking the video it's not his fault it's your, you shouldn't have clicked this if you don't like watching animals catch and cook it's part of life by the way I'm a new subscriber! ❤
Leopard shark... yummy ! We harvested about a 5/6 pounder an cubed the meat in small pieces, wrapped up in tinfoil with butter, lemon garlic and let the cubes simmer while we ate our Calico Bass fish tacos. None of had ever eaten a Leopard shark so we were tentative (early 90's), but we knew at that point we had been ignoring some great eating shark during our dives ! Angel shark also very tasty.
*Overall **enjoyable.fishing** recommend I feel the Shadowfire 360 offers excellent value for those who are new to tenkara and don't want to break the bank on their first rod purchase.*
instead of grabbing your pliers and opening your beer,find a flat surface with a edge,then place the side of the cap on the edge and smack the cap down. it’s fun and works
Actually sharks tend to hate the taste of human flesh which is why they don’t continue to bite the victim also why many people survive the attacks... or die of infection and blood loss
To the other anglers out there, please be responsible when harvesting leopard shark. They’re one of the slowest growing and reproducing species in our fisheries.
You've got some of the greatest videos ever, I've never tried sushi but I'm considering on trying it because of your videos and how you prepare the food.
Would be cool to have a drone up in the air. Imagine seeing the shark fight with the line from a birds eye view as he glides through the water from side to side!
Bro! Keep that extra samurai sharp knife on you at all times! You never know when you’ll have to get rad. Especially you! So stoked you’re keeping on the videos. Keep them wild. Keep them Japanese. Keep them about that beautiful ocean life. You will get exponentially public! Stay up.
Though I love catching Leopard Sharks (45" yesterday morning along w/ four 28-30") the Bat Rays are the REAL beasts. Got one w/ wingspan of 38" yesterday afternoon.........took a solid 20 minutes to bring it in...........on the point, to the left and just downstream from where you're standing.
those fillets on the firebox reminded me of that catch and cook scene in WaterWorld. always wondered what kevin costner was eating, thx for helping me imagine it lol
Local fisherman here; Leopard sharks DO NOT pee through their skin. They are vertebrates, they have kidneys and a urinary track. This misconception, however, stems from the fact that they have a high Urea content in their blood plasma. Lots guys soak the meat in milk overnight to hep leech it out but I've had them fresh like this and never had an issue with the quality.Great vid, thanks for sharing.
Greetings from Thornton Colorado! I used to fish there in the 70’s and lived in Monterey Bay. You could clam there too. Yeah Firebox is badass. He has awesome equipment and channel.
Shark is such an amazing tasting fish. We eat heaps of them here in Australia. We eat mostly 'gummy' and 'school' sharks... bottom dwelling and docile but mighty tasty!
hey dude , just a suggestion , you can boil the shark pieces after cutting and then cook it or fry it or do what every. there will be no bones /cartilage is edible too
I’ve been seeing loads of farmers markets selling specifically strawberries! Maybe you can do a catch and cook and implement them. It would be cool interesting and unique
Great video! Personally I like them a little longer, show the fight of the fish and more of the process off cooking. I love when they’re nice and long and relaxing. Regardless, amazing video, beautiful fish and delicious food!
Just wanted to say you're the reason why I bought myself foraging books lol too bad I don't live my the coast would be fun. But Lake Michigan has a lot to offer too :)
Really sad to see that someone cut its stinger and tail off. These rays can dissolve the hook in their mouths so if it really comes down to it you may as well cut the line and leave the hook. Don't maim the fish
Why not, people do it with sharks all the time with their fins and no one really seems to really care enough to actually do anything... At least the flapflap gets to live, even if disabled.
draggy76 it’s actually illegal in many countries to just take the shark fin so clearly people care. Idk why you’d even argue this, the Ray needs the tail and stinger for defense and to get bigger food so you’re essentially consigning it to die by cutting off the stinger and tail. It’s so easy to unhook these guys without hurting them, I’ve done it literally hundreds of times since I was about 10. I know you’re just trying to get a rise out of me but really, that’s your argument

Jason Jones no but like what general region is this spot located in
@@halfasgrey7380 US west coast.
dude this spot is beyond burned. its not a secret especially since matts made a video here a few years ago.
true but leopard sharks are everywhere

One of the few catch and cookers with some real chef skills! Keep it up!!
because he is an actual professional cook lmao. he makes a living as a cook first and foremost and he does this on the side as a hobby/passion!!
@@henlolneh noooo shit...................
A stick of butter and some garlic is more than enough.
That is straight facts
@@MiguelGarcia-vj7oo 😂 this dude cooking 🗑
I used to eat those when i went pking in runescape
Only chads ate tiger sharks.
f2p can only eat up to swordfish : (
Wait until this guy gets the monkfish
The fact that I'm afk slayer training and decided to watch videos and scrolled down to see this comment is amazing.
Lmao
Ah, this was one of the most exciting and fun fishing days I've had lately! First time eating shark and it was D-lish-ush.
Thank you God for putting this CZcamsr on my recommended
Mad Monkey agreeeeedsds
God is fake lmao
Miso Horny damn that’s crazy but who asked
AstralDugong _YT god
Agreed
I kinda wish that they'd show the dispatching and cleaning process for this one, but still awesome!
Andre Hooper 69 unfortunately knowing CZcams it would get demonetized
They nerfed CZcams
Also nice Andre

Beautiful creatures.

How comes your allowed to catch them
S Sav not endangered and abundant in that area

nothing like a great day getting hammered on the river!!
Can we all have a moment of silence for that fishing pole at 1:52?
Good to hear Craig Evans given a shout out. Glad, also, that the leopard shark isn't endangered....

Best Catch and Cooks on youtube man and i love your humble approach to fishing, thanks for sharing. Cheers!
I saw that firebox and i was like "hell yeah!"
The firebox guy can cook too.
"I didn't expect the taste to be this good." Said every shark biting into a human. Oh, sweet irony 😆
Actually sharks tend to hate the taste of human flesh which is why they don’t continue to bite the victim also why many people survive the attacks... or die of infection and blood loss
@@toomad4636 i can back that up, they dont intend on hurting humans they may feel threatend amd have to defend
@@jasonat1052 or they think you're a seal, then they figure out you aren't.
@Augustuvi Primce dea.V. I live in kerala and Shark fry and Shark curry is my favorit... Shark meat is a part of our culture as a hindhu.
I understand that this is a joke but it's very dumb because it's so inaccurate. Make it at least a bit logical.

Really cool! I think it’s really neat that you know the law when it comes to your catch as well!
Wow these leopard sharks are beautiful creatures! 😍
Would be cool to have a drone up in the air. Imagine seeing the shark fight with the line from a birds eye view as he glides through the water from side to side!
Check out PhilosophyD’s video of the same catch and cook. He has a drone up and good video of the catches.
@@jasonjones6428 This is basically the same fishing trip as one of Philosophy D's just "as told by Taku"
Bro! Keep that extra samurai sharp knife on you at all times! You never know when you’ll have to get rad. Especially you!
So stoked you’re keeping on the videos.
Keep them wild.
Keep them Japanese.
Keep them about that beautiful ocean life.
You will get exponentially public!
Stay up.
@ 10:38 puffy daddy, "take 1, take dat, take dat!" Lol🤣🤣🤣🤣
And we do apologize for eating in front of ya', But this is what we call fishermen's privilege ... :)
The Seven-Ups.....
I've had black tip shark and it's delicious! I'll have to put leopard shark on my bucket list.
Yo next time do a spiny dogfish shark fish and chips catch and cook. Dogfish are such an underrated fish here in North America

Epic chef skills
I almost cried it looks sooooooo good

i always chuckle when he puts the rocks back and crushes a dozen craps and seacreatures. or his dog snacks them. absolute legend
Makes me want to go catch some rays and sharks now
yeah l don't know why they didn't keep the rays
@@RenaldMusic cause the meat is terrible and rays arent really used as food
Yes!!! Get Jocelyn to do more catch and cook. And it was good when she stood up to the grizzly bear
That Ray looked kinda adorable. I want to cuddle it.
Damn, the arms on this guy :') easy reeling in!
Those tacos look stupid good. What a great show.
Already seen this video but I'll watch it again.
Aaron Xiong other youtuber did it but here's great too. Taco sharks lol
The best fish vid ever

Shark is amazing and so is alligator and so is sword fish ... I really like white meat fish the most
New favorite channel.
You rock brotha! Bless u for the videos, your knowledge, and your transparency in great food adventures.
awesome idea for a rod holder. I'll have to try that.
Samphire is like the best costal vegetable ever! We do many on our coast in the UK
That was scrumptious. 👍 thanks for sharing.

Any chance you could do a catch and cook with the bat ray
Here’s a video that got over 250k views about just that...

catch and cook with a shark?
That is incredible!!
Thank you for the video :)
Nobody sponsors you but you advertise something every video. I love it.

1:45 I went fishing here before you and Peed on the stuff you were eating. Sorry man
Up you go sir

I remember catching these at SF with my pops, they were good, RIP dad, cancer sucks, 2019.
RIP your dad bro, nice to have those memories, cheers m8

very cool!
I liek et
My professor showed us pickle weed when i was back in college its pretty darn salty but definitely has a good texture like a little green bean!
Making me jealous with these awesome dishes... 😂😂

Its a bat ray, not a sting ray so there isn't a so called stinger.
Christopher Noe it would be called a barb, and it essentially performs the same function

Gotta have those beers when fishing!
We just call it samphire in the UK. It goes amazing with fish.
Great vid! I like that firebox!
Damn that looked great. thanks for the video!
Wow....that Ray almost caught himself a Taku, wonder what he's going to tell his friends back home :)
Feel kinda bad for the rays, they're so cute!
@alex carter same, they look so innocent and just flapping their wings. Glad he didn’t eat them lol, but I guess that’s just life
This video is very Long ago . I can’t wait for your newest video. Keep it up brother.
What?
I just ate. Am stuffed. And my mouth is still watering, watching this!
Thank you for mentioning Craig Evans.. great guy.. ❤️❤️❤️
Finally get to see your POV of this catch and cook.
Love the firebox channel. Really want one
Sick video. Maybe next time a stingray catch and cook??
Good to know as we have an abundance of leopard shark in my area. Looks the thing is to prep it in the spot!
Nice catch and great presentation !
We've caught halibut at this location before. Definitely one of my favorite spots to fish thanks to my lovely husband. Lol
