It was a good a day as we can ask for. Thanks for the invite on the butter boat. Looking forward to many more adventures in the future brother with you. 🙂🙂
Keith learned that there are even more tasty fish in the sea, you learned that you're ready to invest in a larger cast net. Sounds like a great day for both of you, thanks for sharing.
I really like the positivity of sharing and letting the whole community grow together. We all need to bring each other up. It's such a rewarding feeling.
I spent a year in Sweden as an exchange student. Herring is so big there! Pickled, in cream sauce, etc. Only, I never had them fresh! Would love to try them one day! I love them in cream sauce and pickled. Which was saying something for a 16 yo at the time! Learned to eat all kinds of foods since then, and I know, that is a good thing! Thank you, for an impressive show!
I learned from my good friend Robert Cerny, to eat pickled herring in wine sauce at 12 midnight on new years eve in 1968, for good luck and $ fortune in the coming year. It's worked very well, I am 75 now and have a net worth of over $2M! Try it!
We used 50/50 cornmeal and flour, just take the head and guts scale them roll in flour/cornmeal mix and shallow fry in oil or butter. Season the mix with your favorite seasoning. Delicious 🙌
Awesome job with the net. We dipped for smelt in upstate New York as a kid. Great memories with uncles on the water. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
This is an awesome collab! I learned alot from Keith's teachings. I think you guys ought to go troll for salmon together and talk about the differences of methods between kayaking and boating.
Hey Dude, here in Germany we pickle hering and eat it as a salad with cream. Sounds strange but is lovely. When you add beetroot it turns pink. Raw onions and potatoes. Super quick meal.
I have watched both of your channels for awhile now so it was great to see you both do a trip together. Looked like great fun and the Herring looked pretty good to eat as well!! Also, nice to see you still have the Whaly.
Ive heard of "spot burning". People complaining, about fishing spots, is so overrated. Let people fish and have a good time. Good Vibes, happy fishing, and positive thinking. Fishing wouldn't be called fishing if it was easy, it'll be called catching
These simple videos are always the best videos. Nothing better then catch clean simple videos. I think a lot of RUclipsrs are forgetting this. I like the surf perch catch and cook shore fishing videos more then the exotic marlin fishing videos. (Ps I like everything Matts does just like the simple ones more)
Great video! Brings back memories of the 1970's, we used to snag them with a large treble hook, when thousands of Herring spawn at the Coyote Point Park in San Mateo.
Lost Anchovy fits Keith to a tee! I think I have fished around you before when I was in California. Love my contacts from the NCKA. Great bunch of guys to hang out with on the water
Loved this one Matt, please do more bait fish catch and cook, but straight fried, salt, pepper, onions white and green, garlic, butter, and few splashes of lime and white vinegar and please tell me how it goes if you try it.
Used to eat for lunch almost everyday at work, my boss used to make a big deal of the smell, so 1 day i flipped his seat upside down and poured the juice from the fish on the bottom. he never complained again.
Fishing in the area you’re in makes all the difference. Living in NM is hard especially this winter. But I’m hoping with the improvement such as fish habitats and better quality waters things will change.
Drowning is biggest safety risk for waterfowl hunters and fishermen on the water- consider making a "no waders" rule on the boat. its one thing to rescue a 200lb person, and a another to try and rescue them with another 200lb of water in their waders.
Spot burning leads to increased pressure on the environment, not just the fish population. It means more trash, more crushed mussels, more plants trampled on, in what maybe was a more pristine spot that fewer, more responsible anglers used. There's plenty of public places the city, county, or state list for beginners to find fishing spots.
I think it is awesome when guys share secrets on whatever when it comes to fishing. Because a lot of fishermen are just trying to feed their families. And just trying to catch fish. Love his videos
In the Philippines we dry herring. afterwards you can grill or fry them. but whats best with it is what we call paksiw, it's boiling it with vinegar,ginger and tomatoes until the vinegar is almost in a saucy consistency and the herring bones are soft.. dip with chili lemon and fish sauce..eat it with rice..
I'm surprised that Herring is considered to be a 'bait' fish in the States, as it is a very healthy oily fish to eat. Tthough it has lost popularity since the 1970's here in the UK, herring has often been eaten. When cold-smoked, we call them 'kippers' and again, though they've lost popularity, they are thought of as a breakfast food or tea-time treat. I personally don't like kippers, and have never tried unsmoked herring, but I do know Mum and Dad liked kippers. Mind you, seeing the size of the first fish you caught, perhaps I shouldn't be surprised at all. The Herring in the UK are only landed if they are at least two or three times that size. As they have a lot of pin bones in them, they need to be a good size to make them a worthwhile fish to prepare and eat!
Believe me, in Seattle herring are very popular, especially among older Scandinavian folks. Ya, sure, you betcha! Lightly grilled over alder to get a bit of smoke. Yum.
@@MK-qb5qv I often see something called 'Rollmop' Herring in the chilled fish section in our supermarkets, which I believe is something similar. As I said, herring was once very popular here in the UK, or perhaps I should say England, because I don't know if the other three UK nations have followed the same trend. I believe kippers are still quite popular, as is Herring Roe, but the fresh fish itself isn't eaten so much now, as far as I can tell. I suspect it comes down to a familiar tale: herring was over fished round our shores, the stocks crashed and for some time, Herring wasn't fished to allow their numbers to recover.. By the time they had, a generation had grown up without eating it, and forgotten about it.It can be a fiddly fish to prepare and cook, and being an oily fish, gets strong tasting and 'fishy' as it gets older. These days, people want fish they can just shove in the oven to cook, or better still, get it from the fish and chip shop, and they've lost the taste for Herring and other oily fish...
Herring is a delicacy in Northern Europe. The Dutch fur example eat them raw with finely chopped white onions served in something that reminds me of the container a NYC dirty water dog is served in. It's held up by the tail became and bit from the bottom. FRied anchovy in Portuguese dishes are delicious as well! YUMM!
Awesome Matt when my notification bell came on and seen it's Fisherman's life I immediately stopped what I was doing and turned on the big screen. I believe with this pandemic going on and the price of food skyrocketing some people that's all they can afford to live off the land. Anyways epic video Matt and you stay safe out there and have a blessed day and continue the great video's you do. Aloha from Kansas
Cant wait to see the future videos when you use those for bait, thats if you dont eat ALL of them lol. Great to see TLA in the video, always loved his videos and the knowledge he shares. I would read his blog years ago to learn which tide is best for the different bay species and how I know that today is because of him. Loved this collaboration!
Electrical tape weaved around the weights keeps the net from closing too early. As soon as the net hits the water, it starts closing, especially when there is a little tension on the line. I've got one arm and have been throwing nets for 30 years.
The spawn in NorCal and the Lost Coast has been very early this year. Glad you’re taking advantage of the free bait. I’d get on it if I had a freezer in my car im living out of lol
@Jersey City alot of fish actually, seabass, flounder, cod, are some of the fish that are here alot. Herring is something dutch people eat alot of because it tastes really good! We eat it with union and pickles. Rich in omega 3 and vitamines.
Atlantic herring is fattier then the pacific herring and therefore better suited for raw eating. I grew up in Holland and had no idea it was raw till my mom told me. After getting past that idea I went right back to enjoying them green herring. Pickled herring is also good if raw herring is not available. Great video.
Nice work mat 👍 love the new Collab still being your self. That's y I can watch you bro you love to fish and help others the man. thanks for the content.
Another awesome video. Not sure if you knew, but that was Nick Fish on his AI kayak netting right under Spinnaker. I paddled over in the blue kayak when you guys were wrapping it up. So GRATEFUL to have finally caught a herring spawn. Love watching your videos but I must say that it's even better seeing it this stuff in person!
In the village up in Alaska we cook then whole. Scale then and make x’s on the out side skin to allow the bones to get crisp and you don’t notice that the fish has bones when you eat it. Nice to see other still eating herring. Right on man.
Glad to see you guys enjoying herring as a food fish. It has a bad reputation for being fishy and not freezing well, perpetuated mostly by people who have never tried it. Breading and frying is a crowd-pleaser, and it also makes great ceviche, believe it or not.
Good catch, I'm glad you got a decent meal out of it. up here in Maine they sell cold smoked herring at some of the local stores. It is very salty and has a strong flavor. You have to eat it in moderation because one fillet contains enough sodium to make most people sick. I respect you guys for demonstrating that any fish can taste good if you know the right way to cook it. The areas where I fish contain an abundance of Atlantic mackerel. They make great striper bait, but no one around here would even consider eating them. unfortunately people don't realize that mackerel are a good eating fish if you know the right way to cook them. The trick is to keep them fresh. Soon as you land them you need to clean them out and throw them on ice because if you don't they will spoil. It's also important to peel the skin off before cooking otherwise it will taste like a bait fish. I'm sure the same would apply to herring as it is a soft fleshed fish that is prone to spoiling quickly. I love your videos and I look forward to seeing more content in the future.
Take the gills off and wash. Throw the whole fish in the grill..scales on. The scales will burn , oil will drip..prepare kikoman soy sauce..spicy with a little lemon for dip. With steamed rice...yummm..island style
great show and I did go to lost anchovy and subscribed to it . i live in bay area for work for about 2and 1/2 years i did go crabbing and fishing in fresh water but had no idea you could do so much in the area . i am form Louisiana and fish hear all the time and crab ,crawfish ,shrimp love the out doors ' thank you guys !!! I watch you and 5 of your friends . if you ever come to the south please let me know !!!!
Herring (nishin) used to run in large numbers in Otaru, Hokkaido near Sapporo. They barreled them and used them for fertilizer. These days the runs are small but fresh nishin is a wonderful sushi fish. I did have a frozen nishin for breakfast and it wasn't nearly as good. I also tried nishin sushi at the airport...also not as good as the really fresh sushi-ya in Otaro. Im a fan and intend on catching fresh herring in WA state soon. Love your show.
Congratulations Matt's on the herrings. I still can feel the rush. It was so surreal when TLA and I got them a few days before this trip. Nice to see you and TLA got together.
Man...I love watching your videos...I started fishing watching your videos and use your tricks and teachings a lot. I hope to one day make my own little videos and give a shout out to your channel...wont be any time soon but who knows...keep em coming brother.
Hi Matts....my granma used to scale the herrings...sprinkle red pepper pwder, turmeric, salt ginger garlic and 'curry leaves' and then deep fry them....try that someday!
Love eating herrings too a lot of people sleep on hearing don't want to eat them but they are great fish as long as you season them properly and cook them hard you can eat it with no problem
@@FishermansLife if you could post it i would really appreciate it.We always bleed out the bluefish mainly it really does improve flavor. Thank you for posting and thanks for the reply
Thanks bro , another episode as I sit back with my bulletproof coffee it don't get no better...... And Lost Anchovy on the Collab , that's what's up , do more collab's you 2 ..🤝🏼
Hello, your videos are great! If its a fat fish try to barbecue intire with salt, only for a few minutes each side, here we do that with sardines when they are fat and its a national dish, very tasty 👍🐟 Keep on with your amazing fishing!!!
Up here in the North East ( Long Island) we usually catch them by pole from local piers with sabiki rigs. Worst season this year as the Atlantic Herring fishery is facing major issues.
It was a good a day as we can ask for. Thanks for the invite on the butter boat. Looking forward to many more adventures in the future brother with you. 🙂🙂
Carlos said we should all go out together lol I'm down for that too one day 👊
Keith!!! Lemme get a herring! Fisherman's life, you should join us all chasing salmon this year!
True about Herring: ruclips.net/video/sOwCah4aymU/видео.html

Thanks for taking me where my wheelchair can't go....fishing with you everyday after work and on weekends. Cheers . Aloha.
What's good about being in a boat fishing is you can forget about being handicapped for a while. I know.
Here Keith's own channel if you haven't seen it! ruclips.net/video/gG4pDE0OnXQ/видео.html

Awesome keep the videos coming to keep us all that can't go out busy
Forget about the fancy species, just give me your fattest herring and I'm good. Always choose the fattest Matt!
This fish is very underrated. GJ guys.

Yummy; herring is a Swedish staple-fried in butter with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam💗 or just eaten as a snack, on itself 🙌🏼
We use rye flour as batter!!
Thank you sir, Awsome seeing someone else eating them fresh . I always put some aside before I brine them
Loved this one Matt, please do more bait fish catch and cook, but straight fried, salt, pepper, onions white and green, garlic, butter, and few splashes of lime and white vinegar and please tell me how it goes if you try it.
I saw where Ketchup was originally made from fish and other seafood. I want to try and make some.
Nice video Matts, glad you and Chovy had fun in your first collab. We have to do a kayak collab next time with Chovy, Moo, and Fishing247 😀!!!
I’m so glad that he has posted another video I like watching the catch and cooks with my nieces and my dad

Yeah that is true. Idk why it didnt even cross my mind that day. I only ever wear pants waders on the boat but that could still be dangerous

I love pickled Herring. Maybe you could do a CCC on that topic?
Great vid per usual Matts!!!
I love his " lost anchovy" name.. great collaboration!! totally enjoyed it.
Too much fun for the both of you.
LOVE HERRINGS. It can be cooked in so many ways and TASTE FANTASTIC !!!!!!! Use to get $5 per bucket ~~~~
awesome video of netting bait fish from one of my favorite fisherman youtubers
In the village up in Alaska we cook then whole. Scale then and make x’s on the out side skin to allow the bones to get crisp and you don’t notice that the fish has bones when you eat it. Nice to see other still eating herring. Right on man.
Fishing on the Whaly Boat!! (Thought you may have sold it) I got me one because of this channel....love it!!!
Love these vids man. Even when the fishing isn’t popping where I’m at I know it’s popping on this channel haha
Glad to see you guys enjoying herring as a food fish. It has a bad reputation for being fishy and not freezing well, perpetuated mostly by people who have never tried it. Breading and frying is a crowd-pleaser, and it also makes great ceviche, believe it or not.
Those look delicious to me. Very cool! thanks for posting.
Been subscribed for a long time and haven't commented but I love your videos and this one was awesome! Good luck in the future videos
That fisherman’s life jacket, though. 🔥🔥🔥
In Holland we eat the herring raw, we just scale them and rip of the head and then with some unions
Hering is revered in Northern Europe.
The fact that the other side of the Atlantic thinks it's just bait or even trash fish is mind blowing
Never knew people cook Herring, learned something new.
Here in the Netherlands i dont know beter than eating them raw.
Love your vids man.👍

try a japanese style preparation of mackeral...and eat with rice...it rocks.
Take the gills off and wash. Throw the whole fish in the grill..scales on. The scales will burn , oil will drip..prepare kikoman soy sauce..spicy with a little lemon for dip. With steamed rice...yummm..island style
HERRRRRIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGG TIME!!!!!!!! GOOD VIDEO BRO
Awesome! We catch freshwater herring in Lake Superior they make good fish tacos. And fish cakes
Do they fry up like Smelt? I don't mind Shad...which is a Herring....just too boney for anything other than pressure canning.
He seems like a great person to be around
This is wonderful!
Been waiting to see a catch and cook ! Keep going matt
great show and I did go to lost anchovy and subscribed to it . i live in bay area for work for about 2and 1/2 years i did go crabbing and fishing in fresh water but had no idea you could do so much in the area . i am form Louisiana and fish hear all the time and crab ,crawfish ,shrimp love the out doors ' thank you guys !!!

Smoke em, pickle em Herring are the food of the real fishermen.... making me jealous....
Awesome video! I have to ask though, we’re you using that knife backwards?
Dude, pickled herring and fried top shelf action...now for popcorn lol
Nice catch you guys but I do have one question what is the name of the restaurant that was above you kind look like spinnaker very good place to eat
I also love fried herring. I wish my husband would catch some then I can cook it on my channel👍
When the net opens fully we call that a silver dollar when it doesn't open well at all we call that throwing Maggie drawers thanks for the video
I always enjoy your videos, well put together. Tight Line
Congratulations Matt's on the herrings. I still can feel the rush. It was so surreal when TLA and I got them a few days before this trip. Nice to see you and TLA got together.
It was a great trip. Had lots of fun and learned a ton!

Let me know when you do that!
Another awesome video, thanks
Very very small compared to what i am used to here in Norway but they will do the job both as bait and food for sure.
What was that on the left at 8:40 ?
Awesome video 👍🏼👍🏼. One question, did you dredge them in the same frying mix or in flour ? Thanks
You once posted a link to by those throw nets what is it again?
Hi Matts....my granma used to scale the herrings...sprinkle red pepper pwder, turmeric, salt ginger garlic and 'curry leaves' and then deep fry them....try that someday!
Oooh that sound like a huge simple upgrade to my friend herring
@@FishermansLife save you the trouble of cleaning all you need is scale and gut
Love eating herrings too a lot of people sleep on hearing don't want to eat them but they are great fish as long as you season them properly and cook them hard you can eat it with no problem
Is that the new GoPro 10? If so, thoughts?
Great vid. Looks good thanks. Have you ever tried bleeding them out right after catching them.before cooking and eating them.
Never tried that...I could next time because they do have a good amount of color when cleaning them.
@@FishermansLife if you could post it i would really appreciate it.We always bleed out the bluefish mainly it really does improve flavor. Thank you for posting and thanks for the reply
