    Kia ora Taku and Jocelyn. Taku, you never fail to impress me with your knowledge of rock foraging techniques. Since I was a 4-year-old, I've loved doing the same thing. My father introduced us to the ocean, foraging, fishing,netting,diving, and cooking over a fire after. Now, to be able to do this with my grandsons is exciting and fun. Your camera person always does an excellent job. Keep doing it bro, your a master out doors.

    This is my second time watching this video lol. Surprisingly your channel was brought to my attention by my outdoorsy husband. I usually don’t watch the same things he does. I was hooked by how you make sushi right on the spot. I LOVE sushi and watching videos of them. I can’t eat any now cause I’m preggo 😢. I love unagi!! Keep up the good work! You’re videos are soo interesting.
