Thanks for watching! More to come!

???

I haven't rented one in years but they never had them and I believe it's the same today. Probably bring your own. Just a heads up. Lake trout are deep in the summer months. 60/70 feet and more. In the spring they are close to shore. Salmon are deeper too now. 30/60 feet in summer.

No problem. You're welcome!

I believe they wanted to leave enough room (width) to fit any size canoe or kayak. Do you have one or are you planning buying one?

Thanks!

Thank you!

Did you connect the blue connector correctly?They have to be set just right. I've had to reconnect it again a few times for it to work.

Okay got running lights working going to replace connectors with shrink connectors instead thank you very much yeah blue connectors and ground will be replaced and fix better thanks again helped alot keep it up saved me money.

@@micheal7488 Ok, great! Glad I could help and save you some cash.

Yes, it does. That's exactly what I do. Also, I've put the coffee beans inside bottom half of the grinder. That way you don't have to carry them in their own bag if you want to save room, etc.

I agree! Same here. Excellent fishing along with all the amazing sights and sounds of nature one could ask for! It's always good therapy to get on the water at Quabbin.

I love the gomexus handles. Less stress on the wrist and much more comfortable than the T handle.

@@newenglandoutdoorlore, sure, I love them too. I changed all knobs to tune up my 18 years old reels. Gomexus is a great solution for me.

Very cool. Yeah, I love mine. Great boat. Perfect for one or two people. Easy to manage, etc. These are tough boats. Marine grade aluminum. Well made to last.

Yes, it is.

Thanks! It works good too! I rode up and down the canal last summer vacation chasing stripers and blues! I'll be down there this year again! Good luck!

You got it. Glad you can utilize it to make your own. Thanks for watching. 👍

I'll be there as well. Good luck!

Quabbin😊

Thanks Mike. At first I thought the smallmouth was a salmon. Thought is was much larger than a 16 inch smallie. No, they're good eating out of this lake but I figured I'd just keep the trout this day. Those were delicious! I baked them in olive oil, coated them with Louisiana Fish Fry New Orleans style, with a dash of dill and cayenne pepper!

Thanks! 👍

I almost always see a few eagles or more every time I go there. I had a few fly right over me. Pretty cool.🦅🦅👍

Thank you!

Gates open at 6 am. I was there last year at 3:30 am and there were 35 people ahead of me and by 5-5:30 am there were probably 20 or more behind me around the bend onto route 122. That is both rental and boat owners. I would get there no later than 2:00-3:00am or even earlier just in case. Especially, if the weather is decent.

@@newenglandoutdoorlore Thanks for the info!

@@haokunwu1236 Yeah, no problem. Good luck! If you rent a boat you may need to bring you're own life jackets.A life jacket is required to go out on a boat. I went to; www.mass.gov/info-details/quabbin-reservoir-fishing-guide#boating-information- DCR encourages all customers to bring a Coast Guard approved wearable Personal Flotation Device (Type I, II, or III PFD or life preserver) for each member of their party. DCR has a limited number of life jackets available for those who don’t bring their own, but can’t guarantee one will be available. Rental boats will be denied to anyone who doesn’t have the appropriate number of PFDs.

Thanks! Yeah, wool blankets and clothes keep you warm. It's chilly 30s here but not like the frigid weather we had back a few months ago. When it was in the teens or single digits or even around zero degrees but no ticks here yet. Soon enough I'm sure. When I go in the woods especially brook fishing I use a head net for the mosquitos and black flies. They start to come out usually sometime in April and May. They are nasty.

@@newenglandoutdoorlore Got to enjoy the bug free seasons while we can one way or the other for sure!

Yes, they are excellent tarps. Mine is also 10X10.

I picked up a 10x10 too and was like OMG this weighs a ton! Then realized I ordered the Defender lol! Worth it though, and seriously the weight is not overly that bad, not that light either mind you but...

@@tony7106I have the 10 X 10 safari version. Not heavy at all. Easy to carry in my back pack side pocket, etc.

Gate 31. I like the islands and structure gate 31 offers for fishing, the scenery and protection on windy days, etc. I feel April and early May is best for Lakers as they're close to the shoreline.

Thank you! 👍

I'll have to look and get back to you.

I measured the velcro strap and it's 22.5 inches. I would think if you find something and inch or two close to that it would still work because the velcro covers maybe like the last quarter of the strap and/or depending what you find for an aftermarket, etc. There is also a buckle on the end that the strap loops through and over but you may be able to just velcro it. I would think it would hold. Hope this helps.

Yes, it was a great day! Thanks!

Thank you! 👍

Yes, it was a great day. Thanks for watching!

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed my video. 👍 Firebox Stove is well made gear! Thanks but I don't have much time between work and making videos I'm out straight. How come you don't have any videos posted?

@@newenglandoutdoorlore that's a good question. I'm actually not a content creator. I just enjoy watching. As a sober dude, I'm trying to work with a local recovery center to teach a backpacking class to others in recovery who are a little further along in their recovery. My thoughts are to start with 10 essentials, move onto keeping your person warm, dry and or both and the importance of caloric intake as well as hydration. Start with that and slowly move into shelter, sleep systems, food prep, stoves, first aid yada yada... Plus my wife and I are primary caregivers of our youngest daughter who has a severe mental disability. She's 21 and works thank goodness.

Thanks! Likewise! It's been sometime since I've been to the Berkshires. 👍

Thanks. I will check it out.

Greetings from USA to Sweden! 👍
