“It’s sensitive at the tip..” yes sir it does get that way. 🤙🏻

As a Long Beach native I commend you for your bravery eating fish from the Long Beach harbor lol

I just ate dinner but watching your videos make me hungry

A fisherman that doesn't eat seafood?? Wow!!! That is new to me. #ButThatOpalEyeTho *#TakuTuesday* is my favorite day of the week!

Best line in the whole show KR Guy: I don't eat any seafood.

Love how Shawn's uncle came in and took the bottle to pour your drink with both hands and the lil wrist hold you did. Very respectful.

Yay finally catch a video within a few minutes of it being posted! Love you and Jocelyn ❤️

This was really fun! That presentation was stunning Taku! And Jocelyn is so cute, like the fannypack? I can't.

Taku I saw you almost bust out laughing when you said "KACA life" Lmaooo I know I did

Deng taku! I saw the way you held your cup when Shawn's uncle is pouring you a drink. Mad respect.

I really enjoy watching your videos before bed, they're so relaxing and enjoyable, keep up the great content and collaborations.

Jus wanted to say you make some awesome videos. I enjoy how informational they are. Keep them videos coming I've watched them all!! You've got yourself a big fan from Texas! 👍❤️✌️

That presentation is gorgeous. Thanks for the content.

Been watching for about 6 months now and seeing that you’re fishing in my home town makes me want to get out there!

I was COVID19 positive but man I kept on watching your channel it definitely help me get my appetite back thank you

Wow! How fun! We have water treatment plants all over the US. It is clean and safe to fish in Long Beach. Some people are just not fond of eating raw fish, but so many love to eat sashimi, and sushi Great job you, three! Terrific food presentation. 👌🌺

Knife is life Great educational video. Love the content. Keep it going! We watch them all.

Another fish chef adventure, awesome on the preaentation, looked awesome

so glad to see this wholesome channel get more views :) keep it up taku!

WOW! I'm seriously holding my tongue with this dude Shawn/Sean or whatever... I seriously devour anything you made bro!!!

In no time you will have 1 million subscribers and more! ❤️ your channel! Keep it up bro!

I got inspired and made homemade sushi 🍣 it turned out amazing and was beyond my expectations of what I could do but I just did what you do and it was amazing! I wish I could share it with you!!

I guarantee you hit 1 million subscribers by next year my dude. Keep it up!

Kaca life had me rolling 😂

As a spearfisherman, Opaleye has become my absolute favorite for sashimi. Also, dry-aged opaleye is INCREDIBLE!

Your videos are so wonderfully refreshing, great to see your subs grow :)

So interesting...the uncle had great manners. Beautiful presentation!

I think your great with fishing... Other guys just have gear u don't have like boat and stuff but I see u fish.. But great video love the cooking

I love all of your videos they make me wanna go fishing with my family

So stoked you are getting sponsored now! As always , awesome video

Every catch is always mouthwatering !!!

yayyy good job man, keep up the good work!!!

Great fishing adventure. Taku is like "I'm not good at fishing, I just cook" the most important part is cooking/preparing. Kaca life is cool, I'd go fishing with him, sit back and take the fish he's not going to enjoy...my new BFF :)

Mejina sashimi! Skin on is tops. My dad and I used to fish with peas specifically for the opaleye. Caught opaleye, buttermouth perch, rubber lip perch, sargo, all kinds of stuff on peas. Fresh mussels work really well, too. Not sure about yellowtail, though. That's a predatory pelagic. I could see hooking a smaller fish on a pea, though, and a yellowtail maybe taking that fish. Great vid as always! Wish I had known you guys were down here!

Your awesome! My life is now complete. First, fishing with Hiro and now he catches a fish on peas

Awesome video! Also, way to bring beer for guests!!!

I started to watch your videos last month and today on opening day I caught my first salmon! Can't wait to cook him up. Your videos are so fun that I had to try it myself!

Yo you finally got sponsors good shit! You actually inspired me to want to kind of start a similar channel love the videos.

Dope video man keep it up im a huge fan.

Always look forward to your videos!

Such a talented chef and artist

I really love watching your videos!

It was really fun, Taku!! Your decorations skills are just amazing :) Cant wait to catch yellowtail with you guys! P.s. I changed my channel name to "Opaleye" lol

It's nice to see you two together.

Hawaii (island of Oahu) has a marine preserve called Hanauma Bay, and eventually there were so many visitors who wanted to feed the fish bread etc that it made the water dirty so the approved treat to give to the fish was green peas. Nowadays, I don't know if they allow feeding the fish at all, but the green peas didn't crap up the water.

Great that you both colab.

Awesome vid dude! I really like that boat cause it allows you to keep the fish alive in that cool tub it has.

Knife is life, never knew you could use green peas to chum!! Wow 😳

I like the new editing. You might make 1m by this time next year.

KACA means something very different where I come from! LOL! Just kidding! Great video and the SASHIMI looks amazing!

Not recommended Long Beach because most part of it is contaminated with oil from the ships and boats.

Love the videos Taku! Keep up the good work. I would love to hear you extensively talk about food safety of eating fish raw, especially perch. I've been doing it for years without a problem, but I know lots of people are concerned with parasites within different types of fish.

Man iv been watching ur channel for days and everything u make looks hella bomb u should do a sushi video next

Good vids need to keep coming. Let’s go fishing

Love how you couldn't help but smile when you said KACA Life. I wouldn't be able to either bro

I just realized you have 170K subscribers.... dude congrats! Been around since your first videos and its crazy to see how big your channels gotten!

The Opal eye meat, reminds me of red snapper. One of my favorite. Next time im in Cali i'm gonna have to stop by your restaraunt.

iso fishing is fun mate, we get big drummer, bream, treavally even rat kingfish (you call it yellow tail) with iso set up, groper, luderick, wrasse, morwong, it gets you absolutely everything!

Hello Chef. If you guys are still in the L.A area, and it seems that you guys like beer, go check out Smog City brewery in Torrance. They don't sell food, but you're welcome to bring your own. Enjoy!

I should've subscribed when you were with Hiro. But bro, you got yourself a new subscriber

My boy got sponsors!! WOOOO keep it up!

It's all about the camera work and the editing and the content. like

Ahhh the throwback Korean folding table!!!! 😁

You make filleting that fish look so easy.

18Ft rod? Man you could have been fishing the other side of the yetty. LOL, great videos, keep them coming.

Dude that was awesome!

ahhhh Taku being modest! " ahhhh as a fisherman im the worst out of all the other guys ... i just know how to cook" GET OUTTA HERE !!! You can fish, cook and more !!!!

Your vids are always YUM! Ignore those vegans giving you the thumbs down, you're awesome :)

This is my favorite channel

Very Beautiful presentation.

Awesome, looks delicious!

Wow.. you are eating sashimi.. I love it😋😋😋

I love this channel. I love Orion. I need to do them both at the same time 🤔

I love you! so rad! love your videos

Did you just say Kaca life LOL!!!! I am dying I gotta give it to you keeping a straight face =)

Mmm this makes me want to have sushi. I'll get an order of it tomorrow

@2:55 "That's what she said." ~Michael Scott.

Nice video Dude...always looks Yummy..

Orion rules with sushi/sashimi/wasabi. I'm 45 minutes from Long Beach...check out the Shoreline Village area and the 3 story restaurant Parkers Lighthouse across from the Queen Mary, you might enjoy that place.

Been waiting for you to upload. lol

Nice work.

6:42 in Houston n I'm hungry. With your video

LA !!! lets go !!!

green peas worked very well in Hawaii when i live there. i have no clue why though. it was used in snorkeling bays too, to get fish to come over to the tourist

That was YUMMY amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice!

Cool, best baits ever, cheap and effective...

Serious knife skills👍🖖👊

Looking good!!

Can't believe you were drinking Orion. I'm half Okinawan, i'm VERY familiar with Orion, I found a source here in the U.S.that I can actually buy it by the case. It's my favorite.

Looks like opaleye perch. Yup for sure. Shawn is an expert on opaleye.

You should do a beer review along with your eatting!

Taku - what about a catch and cook making miso soup with dashi from fish carcass and fresh wakami? Would love to learn from the master!

Beautiful Plating Cheff...

Holy moly those rods that you guys are using or almost like fly rods they been so much for such a little fish

Awesome video. I live 30 minutes from Long Beach and would love to catch some opal eye🙏

Damn you got skills bro

The Bay is home to me, so I'm bias but you guys are the new googans. Stick together.
