  • Ryan Myers and Sam go spearfishing in Hawaii in one of their favorite spots only to find few fish and rough weather. The dive was nearly a complete bust until Ryan discovers his "Tako eye" for the first time ever. They both catch a few and take them home to learn how to clean and cook them. Even though they struggled with the cleaning, they end up cooking an octopus feast over an open fire with friends on the beach. Sam shares her Tako Poke recipe and Ryan makes some simple fried Tako bites.

    Hey Ryan and Sam, I would love to give you a tip when cooking the octopus. When you have the water boiling, grab it from the head, sink it completly, and take it out just after, repeat 3 times... then leave it inside the time you need normally. The heat/cold will break the fibers and you will have a super tender flesh! ;)

    When getting the tako kind of be more gentle with it don’t jab it or it will wanna stay inside. And when it comes out grab the head not anywhere on the body it will be much easier to hold onto. And there is a knot between the eyes that u bite or cut with a knife. Sometimes if that doesn’t work I just flip the head inside out and that will kill it

    Awesome video! Yo tip for killing the tako, bite hard right over both eyes, right behind eyes get like one bone you should feel pop or crack and they turn white, no bite and pull! For cook em, just need 1 inch of sake and 1 inch of water in pot when start boiling put in tako, cook for 20 minutes and pau!

    Ryan Myers : I would love to see a video about how your hunting techniques or styles change in different conditions such as water clarity, current, heavy vegetation and so on. I noticed that a lot of guys in my neck of the woods (outer banks) seem to get away with a lot more movement than you recommend in your super clean water videos in Hawaii & Bahamas. Also do strategies change more so because of the target species or environmental conditions. Really enjoy the channel very informative and helpful. Thanks & happy hunting

    Once you manage to take it out of its hole. You should try flipping the head inside out and tearing off the insides for the kill. It seems pretty cruel, but it’s basically cleaning it at the same time. Plus, you won’t get eyeballs all up on your face😂🤙🏽

    • @RyanMyersExpeditions
      @RyanMyersExpeditions  4 года назад +1

    • @ShakaZoulou77
      @ShakaZoulou77 3 года назад

      Before fliping the head to clean, i put the wire from one to the other, that way crosses the brain kiling that, who don't use wire to carry the fish can use the knife the same way, you don't need to poke several times, just once and leave the the spear in it, after an while it will came out with the spear, poking several times, makes it to bleed more and atracts morey eels and you can lose if not all the tako atleast some legs, for me is easy to find tako, at the entrance of the holes look for "shiny" pebbles, the greener top of algae growth aren't exatly on the top anymore, empty sheels, or remains of crabs and sea urchins in the entrance too, and they are on the hunt there is always a few pilot fish and other bait fish near to try to grabe some scraps, so even far away when a see a few small fishes together pointing in the same direction i swim to there because i know will be there a tako

    @ThomasDMT 3 года назад +1

    Regarding on how to approach caves...
    The coast I dive is composed of granite boulders of various sizes, some are larger than a big house.
    The technique we developed is consisted of diving 20' or 30' before the entrance to the cave but never in front of it, always on the sides, out of the field of view of any fish.
    Sneak slowly with your gun by your side and your eyes partially shut so the fish can't see them and you are acostumed to the darkness of the cave in case you have to go deeper into it.
    If you show up at the entrance of a cave and a school of large fish such as Cubera Snappers are there, chances of being run over by them are real and dangerous. It happened to me once and another guy I know was knocked out by a large Cubera....so imagine a XXL Trevally coming full speed towards you...you better not be in it's way. 😜😂

    Tip : when cleaning the slime off the he’e you want to put a decent amount of Hawaiian salt and sprinkle it all over the squid. Then you want to grab the squid by the head and like hit it up and down against the sink over and over till the slime comes off and if you do it right the legs should curl.

    @ea575ider9 4 года назад +1

    After the first poke it will show you its mouth, then you can stab it in the mouth part so it’s legs will clamp down onto the shaft or hell start to come out and that’s when you grab It at the base of the head. Also that way if he tries to come out the hole and make a run for it when you go up for a breathe, you’ll know where it went cuz your spear is in him.
