The Ultimate Seafood Catch & Cook (Sustainable Harvesting)
Spearfishing Lingcod & Rockfish. Hand harvesting Octopus, Dungeness crab and Sea Cucumber. Digging for Manila Clams and walking the beach for Pacific Oysters. In British Columbia, it's all possible if you don't mind getting cold and dirty. In this episode, we have some epic visibility while freediving in Nanoose Bay, we have some luck while looking for crabs, I score on finding some old bottles and we have the ultimate seafood catch & cook with Jasmines family!
Must Watch if you harvest bivalves from the PNW!

The viz was above the water good! I love me a plainfin midshipmen. Thanks for the shout out! I hope the parent in-laws enjoyed it!

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

They did man! The family was super into it. It was a pretty rewarding feeling. The midshipman are awesome! Underrated for sure... And that visibility was crazy! Wish it was always like that.

I discovered your channel two weeks ago and I’m slowly going through all your content. What can I say… quality! Each one is a 10/10. Great footage, editing, knowledge, soundtrack. You are knocking it out of the park. As a person who has spent my entire life on Vancouver Island I am really enjoying all the learning I am getting through your videos. Respect!

@PNWSamson Год назад

Haha amazing man, thanks for the views and comment! I'm stoked people enjoy the videos. Freediving/spearfishing can be a big learning curve, especially locally in cold water. Vancouver Island has some amazing diving and it's a shame more people don't explore it. Happy I can light the fire for some and get them out there!

nice one Chris! amazing vis and a tasty looking feast.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Visibility was amazing. Don't see that this time of year very often!! And the feast was great, everyone seemed to love it. Lots of fun!

@vancity2349 2 года назад

That was a great video, the clear visibility really shows all the beautiful and diverse creatures in the pacific ocean. Man barefoot through those oysters everywhere, hope you didn't accidentally step on one...lol Nice harvest and 100% agree why do we buy our seafood from another country when its all here, and hope they soon close all the fish farms.

@abeach5420 2 года назад

Runnns around the house fist pumping the air-yelling" *SUNSTAR in NANOOSE BAY spotted* Ohhhh please let it survive n' thrive. Superior visibility & footage Mr. Samson! It is cra-cra how close to edge of land all the varied houses are! Wow---sooo 'the family' came afar and over yonder?! 'That' must have been fuuun. Am sure the babies were all-about-it. That Lingcod was like "...uhhhh that would be MR.LINGCOD to u" Rock sole was like "succkker you gotta be faster than that" #SalishSea - Bermuda 'vis I luv it.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Haha yeah it was great to see the sunstar! Definitely hope to see lots more. Yeah, Jasmine's mom is from Bermuda and dad is from Alberta. They've been together since Jasmine was 4. Pretty much all the immediate family came down, it was great. Some stayed with us, and the others rented an Airbnb. The kids had a blast!

@JSaltyfabricator Год назад

Yo man. Great videos and super positive vibes 🤙 I'm down in Victoria and I'm definitely inspired to get into freediving. Thanks for sharing the beauty of our island with the world. Cheers brother 👊

@PNWSamson Год назад

Thanks man! I appreciate the comment. It's crazy that more people don't jump in and explore. The beauty is so amazing and relatively accessible. Happy I can inspire others to take the plunge. Cheers!

You'd really like Grouse I bet, good stuff Chris! Rabbits & Squirrels are pretty good too. haha

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

I'd imagine! Maybe one day I'll eat some meat again. If I do, it will definitely be self harvested! I don't have enough free time for any other hobbies or sports though ahaha so won't be any time soon.

No Patreon needed man. It helps out with gas money but you sit infront of a computer as much as me. Absolutely zero pressure from anyone. I just appreciate the comment!

@MikeSmith-qq7gw 2 года назад

the plainfin midshipman are actually able to vocalize. You can hear them grunt/growl when disturbed/touched.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Yeah man! Super neat fish. They can live out of the water for long periods too.

@estrelassort6161 2 года назад

i wish someday i can do also that things.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

It's a lot of fun! Try it out for sure

@canucklehead0 2 года назад

Unreal visibility at Nanoose Bay! One of those gorgeous days, above and below the waterline the only thing missing other than some massive Ling Cod would have been some whale song! I hope your in laws enjoyed that feast as it looked delicious!! Take care!!

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Thanks man! And yes, it was a beautiful day indeed. Still haven't heard any whales yet. Can't wait for the day though!

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

I agree man! My wife, her sister and mom are about to eat a crab I just brought home. They are all super excited about it. Definitely a good feeling. Happy you liked the video, thanks for the comment!

@alexdurden2745 2 года назад

Hi Chris, great message for sustainability and an awesome video. Hope to see more awesome videos since its getting warmer and warmer.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Thanks man and hopefully more to follow! I have some pretty fun trips lined up. I just hope the weather holds it down!

@bretthodge2832 2 года назад

That is my one of my favorite, bike out to go swimming beaches. Still a regular smoker so I haven't tried free diving yet. Cool videos always.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Thanks man! Smoking definitely won't help your breath hold but many freedivers smoke. I wouldn't let it detour you from freediving. Even snorkeling is a good time. It's a wicked spot that's for sure.

@broke_Homie_Kwan 2 года назад

I’m curious if you are concerned about toxins and bacteria in our seafood in this area? Amazing at how much is available with a little knowledge:) great video!

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

I ensure I follow all the regulations and best practices when it comes to harvesting, transporting, preparing and cooking my shellfish so I'm not concerned. Figuring out the regulations can be a little daunting though that's for sure. I delayed harvesting shellfish until I had someone show me how it's done and it's much easier than I thought. If you harvest from closed areas you could definitely pay the price for it. Contaminated shellfish is no laughing matter! And for sure man, so much available. Cheers!

@pebbIe5 2 года назад

I was just near that area, but saw signs everywhere for red tide and warning against consumption of shellfish. Although the signs seem to be up all year round. I believe it is safe to consume during the winter as there is less of this paralytic bacteria around. How do you know whether or not you can consume the shellfish?

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

You have to check the DFO's website. Things can change day by day. Basically you find the area you plan on harvesting from. For example, most of Nanaimo falls under area 17. From there, check the sub area. Once you have that pinned down, look for sanitary closures within that sub area. Even though a sub area may be open, there are still places one must avoid. Marinas, sewage outflows, places with industrial activity and river mouths as they pull pesticides down from farming operations. Once you pin down the area, check what species are open and refer to the species table for your limits. You also have to read the restrictions for other information such as size restrictions and combined daily limits. It's confusing but I hope that helps! I'm going to make a 101 video I think.

@dannyhero2536 2 года назад

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

@Sea2Skyward 2 года назад

So you just put the oysters on the BBQ without shucking and then when they open you add some butter ? I love this I wonder if the oven would have a similar effect or have you tried it in the oven like that too before?

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

I'm sure the oven would work. Possibly even better for that matter. Get the oven nice and hot, throw em in, keep an eye and add some butter once they pop. The oyster Juices poor out and are super hot so get some gloves for handling them. They were amazing. Spring/summer is not the time to eat raw Oysters as Vibrio, a bacteria that grows in seafood, can cause food poisoning. Heating to the appropriate temperature kills that bacteria though!

@Sea2Skyward 2 года назад

@@PNWSamson Awsome. I usually shuck them before I put them in the oven, I love the fact that I don't really have too. Thanks for the info and great vids. Sea cucumber is on the next seafood menu for me. cheers

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

@@Sea2Skyward no worries at all. The sea cucumbers were a huge hit! Actually everyone's favorite. I've been told if the Oyster doesn't pop open then it was dead before cooking and could make you sick if eaten. If you take the shell off before hand you might be cooking a dead one. Hard to say!

@petrhermanadventures9509 2 года назад

I think it's ironic how sun stars were just this nasty predator blob to us and now that they're mostly gone it's an ecological disaster. The complexity of food webs can not be under estimated.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Agreed man. It's a pretty delicate ecosystem. Humans can't fathom how interconnected everything is. We are just one giant wrench in the gear. And not just in the ocean, around the entire planet.

@petrhermanadventures9509 2 года назад

@@PNWSamson It's true. I like to take the the long view. 10 000 years ago my town would have been covered by several hundred meters of glacier. 10 000 years from now it might be again. That does not mean I don't care, I'm huge on conservation and doing what I can in terms of personal choices to consume less, but also I don't cry myself to sleep at night.

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

@@petrhermanadventures9509 true, but your already used to diving in lakes haha. I don't want my ocean to be all (relatively) lifeless and boring. I get that we could be hit by a meteorite and every species known to man, including man, wiped out in a moment's notice but it still sucks. I think I have what they call "climate anxiety." I'm pretty pessimistic and although I don't cry myself to sleep at night, it does keep me up from time to time. Is what it is they say.

@vancity2349 2 года назад

@PNWSamson 2 года назад

Totally man. Makes no sense at all. We ship away farmed salmon to import farmed salmon? Farming salmon in the ocean is bad enough. So dumb. And funny you noticed, definitely cut my feet up! Still a little sore in some areas. I'm used to it though, you should see my hands from cleaning out my Lingcod from yesterday haha.
