Thanks, I think every marriage is a work in progress but ours has progressed well for many years. I was in scouts too. Probably a big influence on my choice of hobby. :) ATB!
Well done my man. Thank you so much for making a point to mention the barbless regulation. I see a lot of Quetico videos of fish being caught on what SEEM like barbed lures. Hard to tell...but I see a lot of barbs on other people's rods while portaging. Thanks again for sharing. We head up again (from St. Louis, MO) in September for a 10 day. Have never fished the Dipsy Diver but did catch a fair number of nice trout in September 2017 on Tail Dancers (Expensive! Especially when pike tear them to shreds) Tight Lines. PMR
Thanks Pat for appreciating that little moment. Back in the day when I did a lot of trout fly fishing I would crimp my barbs all the time. If you throw any little ones back there is a lot less damage to them. And you learn quickly how to keep your line tight. When fishing for bass and intending to catch dinner I would rather have the barbs but I am happy to comply with the regulations.
@@golfish8589 In Ontario's Fisheries Management Zone 5 (where we were), there are no size limits on smallmouth bass after June 30. The 35cm size limit applies between Jan 1 and June 30 and there is no distinction between males and females. The catch limit is 4 fish each for the licences that we had. Unfortunately the waters of Quetico are teaming with bass they are an introduced species brought in by fishermen using live bait. In the 25 years that I have been going to Quetico I have seen a drastic rise in the population of bass and they are displacing other native species. In my personal view there should be no limits at all on bass in Northern Ontario.
Hey Kevin! Greetings from southern Michigan.I'm new here and spent a bit of time on your channel this evening. Great videos! Best of all things to you and yours.....Really great job!
I think Carrie had one of though Canadian "Attack Fish" they are know to jump out of the water and try and bite you on the nose lol , good fishing and supper with the fish after
just to let you know that i have cooked my chicken in crock pot last night seperated the meat from the skin and chopped some for the dehydrator will let you know when i finish dehydrating how it turned out using more than just the breast meat it was a big chicken
Simple question: When do/don't you need a licence for catch and cook fishing? My backcountry buddy and I have often talked of the fun of a catch and cook dinner, but a lack of familiarity with licences and rules have prevented us from giving it a go. We are only interested in catching one or two fish to be consumed immediately for that day's supper.
Great question ravcreed. The laws around fishing will depend on where you are. Here in Ontario most people need a fishing licence. The licence permits both the activity of fishing and keeping your catch. You can get a standard licence or a slightly cheaper 'Conservation' licence which has reduced catch limits - perfect for most people who want to catch just one or two fish. You also need to be familiar with the fishing regulations which specify how many fish can be caught, the season and any exceptions or restrictions. As an example there is no live bait permitted in Quetico Provincial Park.
@@KevinOutdoors www.ontario.ca/page/fishing-licence-fees-ontario-residents It would appear I even have the option of purchasing a 1-day license, excellent.
I don't because I generally keep my meals in the freezer and my trips are rarely more than a week. If they were going to be out of the freezer for a long time, like if I was going to mail the food away for a pickup later. I would probably use the desiccant packs.
Great video and a great relationship you and your wife have! Making me remember back to when I was a scout. Thanks Kevin

@@KevinOutdoors there are also regulations about keeping the large female bass.
It would be better to keep 4 small males.
Otherwise , nice videos

I want to go there fishing but that's over a 3 day drive I am in Alberta Canada
Thanks Cameron, yes that is a bit far to drive for a bass :)
That's good fishing when they're almost jumping in the boat, LOL.
It was one of our more memorable catches!
i was so excited the chicken did great it dehydrated fast and i am cooling it now so i can put it in jars in a while crock pot works goooood
I am glad that it worked out for you and that you are having fun with this! I thought it might work.

Thanks Craig. It was a good time. The "attack" makes the video in my opinion.

Thanks, let me know.

also when you vacuum seal meats do you put oxygen absorbers in the jars? if so what cc do you use?
I don't because I generally keep my meals in the freezer and my trips are rarely more than a week. If they were going to be out of the freezer for a long time, like if I was going to mail the food away for a pickup later. I would probably use the desiccant packs.
Did your wife use a pink dare devil to?
Hi Slim, no after trying for lake trout we switched to simple jigs with Mr.Twister scented bait.
