I walked into my local outdoors store and saw your videos playing in the silenced tvs, amazing videos even without sound. I told the guy I knew who you were and he said he loves your videos too. Great job Xander keep doing what you do
Ofc you don’t only time you’d want some expensive gear is if you go salt water fishing at sea, but given iv caught a 15kg shark on a blue kids rod😂 but tuna no way
I know im probably not your intended audience but I love putting on these longform videos in the background while I do my nails, they’re so relaxing 😚🤍 and there’s some funny random commentary occasionally that also takes the cake!!
I couldn't believe that haul. I've watched so many videos where people attempt to handline fish and catch nothing, so when he started carving I just thought "Guess he's living off blueberries." Was impressed with the small fish. Then they just kept getting bigger and bigger. That last bass would be the catch of the day regardless of what he used, but man just extra awesome that was handline!
Bro, I was sitting watching this and wanted to let you know that this time last year was a really dark time of my life and your videos was one of the only things that I could escape to and bring me comfort. Thank you buddy
Kindred spirits my friend I hope today is a brighter outlook for you and I send my best vibes thru this comment I hope it reaches you. Also, I would definitely have to take at least 5 grams of reefer with me on this trip 😅
Sorry to hear that, Man. 2023 might have been my worst year, also. Not cool. Tried to camp and film when I could, but it's still hard. I know it shows in some of my vids, but I think I hide things well enough. I TRULY hope this year is a better year for you!
Good to hear things have gotten better for you friend. Let's never forget that Nothing lasts forever! all shall pass. I know, I know, you're probably saying "that's easy for you to say" We must believe this universal Truth even in moments of exuberance as it will keep us grounded. Something Las Vegas, the pastry companies, that pretty girl/guy DON'T WANT US TO DO.
Xander bro i have horrible anxiety like super bad man just wanted to lyk watching your videos helps me out so much found u yesterday haven’t stopped watching I’m on my lunch break watching u thanks man
@@XanderBudnickisnt it funny how many people say this same thing so often on your channel and Jon's, and others that film their time in the bush? This is why I live in the forest in Northern Ontario. Everything from the birdsong to the wind in the spruce, to woodsmoke, to going to sleep and waking up with the sun just seems to plug into the brain and make everything work the way it's supposed to.
Thank-you for your film and sharing it. And a big thank-you for not putting unnecessary loud music or any music. The forest has no music except for wind, bugs and animals calls. That's why I watch these videos. Also the tips on what to eat in the forest were excellent. Blueberries, I would eat bowlfuls up North. Morning noon and night. And walleye. Yum. The way you are filming is hard work and I appreciate it. Have a great day! 🙂
Xander, I'm not even halfway done with the video but I gotta stop and comment on the cinematography. From the close-ups of the plants and flowers to the fantastic drone shots of you and the landscape, everything is truly breathtaking!
Rain sounds nice. You are an amazing young man. Four great looking fish. Blueberries look really good. Lol, I wouldn’t be able to survive, did you ever get sick from the stuff you eat? Your channel is so interesting. Great entertainment for a 76 year old great grandmother. I enjoy going places and doing things I’ve never done before. I’ve seen so many beautiful places. Thank you. It was fun. 🙋🏻♀️🙏😊
Bit of a late reply lol but he did state that a food that’s been snacked on by snails or whatever made him do liquid poops which means upset stomach from it
you likely wont see this, i want to say thank you, several months ago i stumpled upon your channel, since then it has been the greatest motivator to sort my life out, i have quit drugs, quit smoking, started working out and started to go on camping adventures, all because of the inspiration and adventure you instilled in me, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for saving me
I'm not Xander, but I found your comment. Camping and the outdoors are the buzz you're looking for to replace the chemicals. I still drink a beer or two on occasion, but I'm done as well. Hard drugs are gone, and I don't even miss weed. You got this brother. All that money you'll be saving on getting fuctup gets you PREMIUM outdoor equipment. One 8-ball is enough to send you on your way in style.
@@rabbithole8592 there might be 1 keeper. 14" is the low limit in Michigan. It doesn't matter how clean they are. It's the law. Big $ ticket for undersized fish. Loss of lic. etc.
Amazing Xander! One of the things I notice about you (and your brother Max) is that the attitude is always gratitude and that's a lot more powerful than people may think. As always, thanks for taking us along on your adventures.
Watching your videos is like breathing fresh air. I really enjoy your content and your videos in a way have helped me with so much these past few months. I recently lost my dad who was a lot like you, you remind me so much of him and it brings me so much joy watching somebody do what my dad liked. Thank you.
This is the first video I've seen of your content and I really like what I'm seeing so far. Knowledge of local plants and edibles when foraging is very important, and detailed explanations of what you're finding are informative and entertaining. Keep up the good work.
Xander there are no words how I would describe your channel, such a breathe of fresh air and after hearing your struggles with alcohol and how you've changed your life around is so inspiring, to see you walk this Trailblazing path gives me courage to challenge the world and stand on my own two feet, keep going keep doing what you love and remember that I will always appreciate what you do
@@stateofmissouri5651 he told in a video that he was having problems with alcohol and was also using, and that he had been sober for quite a time and was trying hard in the early videos
@@torukmakto9255 It's my first time running into his video, happy to hear he's taking natures route to help him regain balance. Wish you continued strength young brother! I still wish to hear what protection you're using. Little tip, buy firecrackers which you can set off to chase off Bears.
I just discovered you, Xander. Now, I'm your biggest fan. I love the outdoor and you make surviving in raw nature look so easy. I'm learning and following you. Thanks for sharing
Man, you just made my Monday 100 times better! Looks like you had a great adventure at a location you'd never been to. Many thanks for sharing with us Xander! 🙂🙌
Xander, in late '20/early '21, I was really struggling and your videos helped me get through. This video reminded me of them. An absolute classic. Love from England, thanks, man.
Dude your channel is such a gem. So cool to see you get better at production, survival skills, your own style of comedy, editing and everything else that comes with making these terrific videos. Thank you for showcasing our beautiful province, and thank you for your effort in these videos. You kick ass man
i found your channel three days ago and all this time i just cant stop watching all these survival videos, theyre literally so good. thank you so much for high-quality and interesting content!
Very nice. These videos always make me grateful for our farmers and fishermen and all the people who invented and modernized our stoves and things we now take for granted. Some even show contempt for the amazing technology which we should all use with care and respect. Thanks for these beautiful videos taken in such desolate areas - many young people should learn and experience the contrast to what we used to have to do against what we now have. Love all of it so much, historically speaking, as I snuggle down in my warm bed with toast and a hot cuppa. I particularly like to watch the blizzards and snow videos as I live in a humid sub-tropical area. Thanks for your videos and your struggles to fill you belly. Regards to all.
Thank you for this journey with you….the simplicity of catching the frog to picking blueberries and eating while you collect was incredible. Loved it Xander, just loved it! 😊
I love watching your videos, I’m a 64 yr old woman who was always to afraid to be adventurous and go into the wilderness! I wish I was there, but I’m too afraid of bears 🐻, I just love the wilderness and I sure wish I was brave enough to go and enjoy it like you do🙏🏽
Superb storytelling, excellent cinematography and editing! You do an outstanding job on this video, and I really enjoyed learning from your foraging. Thanks, Xander!
Can’t believe I just watched a full hour of this.. it’s so relaxing, I haven’t watched your channel for a while but I now I remember what I was missing
Good morning to you Xander, thank you for sharing this awesome solo adventure , love the bird sounds, your nature cinematography is spectacularly , enjoying the fishing and how you prepping the fish, eating blueberries, drinking coffee from a pot lid, oh and the choice of music is spot on, thank you so much ⛺️🛶🪵🐟🎄🪨🫐
so happy i found this video and your channel. you are adorable and your videos are different than other survival channels i watch. you show the earth in more of a raw form. you don’t flick away the ants or swat at ginormous flying things. let alone the thousands of mosquitos that swarmed 24/7. you show the bees working hard and know what you’re talking about with wild plants and forgery. truly such an entertaining person and video all together
Xander catches more bass than me with just a stick, line, hook. Can’t even catch a bass with all my 10 rods on my kayak. Fell in love with all your videos been binge watching all your videos. Almost done with watching all of them already. Helping me soo much with the outdoors thanks!
I love the sounds of those birds when it was getting dark and you were sitting around the fire I can call them in right next to me. :) Thanks for another great video! Love the adventurous "we'll figure it out" outlook!
xander its crazy the amount of effort you put into your videos, like when you do a shot where youre paddling away from the camera, you have to set up the camera, paddle away, then paddle back. thank you for these peaceful and serene videos that make my night whenever I get to watch them
I get so relaxed after watching your solo adventures, it's like a meditation, it's so easy to watch and the nature is just so amazing, keep doing these! you are awesome.
What a peaceful place. I'd really want to go week or month camping myself but I'm a lazy person who just wants to lay down all day so thanks for videos like this 😊
Dude this was unreal. Thank you for sharing, I am slowly building up the gear required to go out on my own, and you're a huge inspiration. The fog in the morning was incredible, and the shots of you fishing. Thank you!
These videos are amazing I have so much in my mind lots of thoughts that never stop and just watching these videos really help my mental a lot. Thank you.
I really enjoyed this one, Xander. I lived in the Red Lake area for 10 years and every August was blueberry picking time. We'd take as many ice cream pails as we could, go to our super secret location and spend a few hours picking blueberries. A few times, a bear or two would be picking with us. Nothing compares to the taste of fresh wild blueberries.
Great video Xander...you sure did well with this one...getting so much better at getting food...great nature shots...loved the 🫎 going across the lake...good fishing for what you were working with...very impressive...take care...get some coffee 😊
This film is so calming. Even if it’s a vlog or something I can call it a light documentary. This was awesome! Just incredible how you get those shooting angles 😮 and excelent story telling! Next up on my list is your 12 days survival.
There has only been a handful of TV shows that has made me WANT to go & adventure into the outdoors... but I always wish I was with you, while watching your videos. Hands down, every time! I've NEVER considered moving to Canada, seriously, till I watched your videos. LOL! Every location you take us to is truly gorgeous! Thank you for taking us with you!
Stayed up late to watch this one, far past the time I needed to get to sleep for priorities in the early morning. Absolutely loved every second of it, Xander! Your Host style and mood settings are a lock in for enjoyment of viewing. So well done friend. Thanking you much with many shares. All the Best, .. Mike.
Fascinating experience. Love how you make the viewer feel like they are right there with you. Great camera work as always. Thanks for taking us on another educational and fun trip. Not surprised about the weight loss.
Absolutely phenomenal content yet again Xander, what an amazing experience to share with us all, especially enjoyed the slow mo shots and the knowledge you portray, thank you
Thank you for the video! Really well done. One small thing... I find that adding coffee grounds after the water helps avoid the spilling. Keep up the amazing content!
1:06:53 dude, some of my favorite things about your videos are the cooking segments. I totally enjoyed the camping part, and the braving the elements part, but I think I look forward to the cooking part the most lol. So when I heard you weren’t going to be bringing anything with you I was a little bummed at first. but I really enjoyed watching you fumble your way through and figuring out a way to not only sustain but make it look delicious lol. I really enjoy your content and look forward to the next one.
Very lovely video, I love when you go out by yourself and take us along with you and show us all the things you do to survive and share how you're feeling about stuff, Some of my favorite videos. Blessings looking forward to watching the rest.
i love the tune that bird is playin , its literally stuck in my head and it immediately makes me feel calm and gentle, what is that ? Idk but it makes me feel good.
Another great video Xander, as always! I really enjoy your adventures and amazing content. You are top of the class in adventure trips and videos! Keep them coming buddy! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤙🏼
Sweetfern is one of the most fragrant smells Especially on a hot summer day Indigenous people used to line their gathering baskets with it. Love that smell.
Today was a really hard day for me so I can't express the joy I felt after seeing that you had uploaded a video today Xander. This video was the first bit of relief I had from and otherwise overwhelming day. Thank you so much for what you do. P.S. really enjoy the educational bits you add in your videos (like the bit about Giardia)
Almost eight pounds in 5 days?! I have to try this… Grocery list this week: 6 fish, two bunches of asparagus, tons of blueberries, coffee, and one piece of bread (starch). Oh, and I’ll check out the mushrooms but choose not to get any. Awesome, Xander, thanks for this one!
Hey Xander love your videos man as a fellow Canadian. I was just curious how do you deal with all the bugs and ticks? Long clothing? I know lymes disease is a pretty big deal around my area I was just wondering if the ticks are bad or its a seasonal thing. Cheers
I love watching your videos , only thing u need to thank God for all the beauty and your time in nature everything comes from God . Keep camping and sharing👍🙏 .
Oh, here's ...again my favorite Canadian boy...Xander...love to see this new video of yours showcasing beautiful lakes and nature in Canada. Love to see you again... exciting watching over here in the tropical Philippines 🇵🇭...🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Looks like beautiful Canadian Shield country-the best canoeing in the world. Your 15 foot Prospector canoe looks great for a single person out in the woods. Great video-thanks : )
To the 99% of you, sorry for the feet shots at the beginning of the video, to the other 1%, you're welcome

Fascinating experience. Love how you make the viewer feel like they are right there with you. Great camera work as always. Thanks for taking us on another educational and fun trip.
Not surprised about the weight loss.
Xander has blessed us with over 1h of content👏👏
Absolutely phenomenal content yet again Xander, what an amazing experience to share with us all, especially enjoyed the slow mo shots and the knowledge you portray, thank you
Thank you for the video! Really well done. One small thing... I find that adding coffee grounds after the water helps avoid the spilling. Keep up the amazing content!
i never would have imagined how crazy the bugs are in canada.... beautiful part of the world.... enjoyed the video mate.... respect from Australia
Learning a lot through you man. Thanks for documenting your adventures, creativity and courage
1:06:53 dude, some of my favorite things about your videos are the cooking segments. I totally enjoyed the camping part, and the braving the elements part, but I think I look forward to the cooking part the most lol. So when I heard you weren’t going to be bringing anything with you I was a little bummed at first. but I really enjoyed watching you fumble your way through and figuring out a way to not only sustain but make it look delicious lol. I really enjoy your content and look forward to the next one.
Very lovely video, I love when you go out by yourself and take us along with you and show us all the things you do to survive and share how you're feeling about stuff, Some of my favorite videos. Blessings looking forward to watching the rest.
i love the tune that bird is playin , its literally stuck in my head and it immediately makes me feel calm and gentle, what is that ? Idk but it makes me feel good.
Something about you is so calming to me. Really enjoying your videos.
Another great video Xander, as always! I really enjoy your adventures and amazing content. You are top of the class in adventure trips and videos! Keep them coming buddy! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤙🏼
Always awesome shoot 🙌 always love your video Xander, truly inspiration 😊
That rusty barrel would have made a good smoker for your fish!
Great adventure... Very nice. These videos always make me grateful for our farmers and fishermen. Thank you for sharing!
Sweetfern is one of the most fragrant smells
Especially on a hot summer day
Indigenous people used to line their gathering baskets with it.
Love that smell.
ever thought of collaborating with outdoor boys?
Today was a really hard day for me so I can't express the joy I felt after seeing that you had uploaded a video today Xander. This video was the first bit of relief I had from and otherwise overwhelming day. Thank you so much for what you do. P.S. really enjoy the educational bits you add in your videos (like the bit about Giardia)
Your videos are always so easy to watch. Great adventures, beautiful scenery and quite possibly the best stick fisherman out there 🤣
You can boil that blueberries in water to give a taste to have some enjoyable tea 😊 glad i found your. Channel!! Thank you!
After watching several of your videos, this is the best in my opinion. You look for a lot of food, unlike the videos I saw earlier.
With how much time you spend out in the wild by yourself, I'd love to hear your weirdest or scariest experiences in one of your videos
Good call!
Almost eight pounds in 5 days?! I have to try this… Grocery list this week: 6 fish, two bunches of asparagus, tons of blueberries, coffee, and one piece of bread (starch). Oh, and I’ll check out the mushrooms but choose not to get any. Awesome, Xander, thanks for this one!
Hey Xander love your videos man as a fellow Canadian. I was just curious how do you deal with all the bugs and ticks? Long clothing? I know lymes disease is a pretty big deal around my area I was just wondering if the ticks are bad or its a seasonal thing. Cheers
Would never through that fish away, and only eat the filet!?
Never! Love the crispy parts.
Anyone watching this with their eyes?
No, just my soul. This shit is way too wholesome to watch with my eyes. It’s nice to see this type of content
I watch with my pp 🍌
How else would you watch it? 😅
not really

These videos are a unique form of meditation for me lol so relaxing and enjoyable to watch.
Those nature close ups are very nice. I really enjoy them
Oh, here's ...again my favorite Canadian boy...Xander...love to see this new video of yours showcasing beautiful lakes and nature in Canada. Love to see you again... exciting watching over here in the tropical Philippines 🇵🇭...🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
the long videos are therapeutic. really enjoy your stuff. keep up the good work
Looks like beautiful Canadian Shield country-the best canoeing in the world. Your 15 foot Prospector canoe looks great for a single person out in the woods. Great video-thanks : )
