love your videos and to my suprise i found my mum watching your videos one night and mind you she does not speak a word of english and she still really enjoys your content. such an amazing lifestyle u guys live. much love from Australian
These videos are just a pure delight to watch. Ariel impresses the heck out of me. What a trooper, wading with a strap to pull the boat through shallow water is awesome! My lady of 18 years was just like that. We would hike and fish together, process our venison and clean fish together. She was proud to be my Sous Chef, cutting up all of the vegetables and helping me brine meat and pressure cook. I lost her 7 years ago around Memorial Day and watching Eric and Ariel reminds me of all of those wonderful years with my soul mate Megan.
Yes, yes, yes!!!!!! You both have made my day soooo much better!!!!! But seriously, thank you both for taking the time to put forth the hard work that it takes to create these videos. It's not just a simple process to do what you do!!!!! You make so many people happy!!!!!
Shoutout to Arielle for do so much of the filming. Unfortunate that you get stuck filming so much but on the bright side you do it very well. It all equals out, Eric from what I see definitely cooks the most. So shoutout to Eric for all the fantastic cooking. ✌
What a beautiful fishing trip! This is my favorite channel by far! I have learned so much from both of you! So happy to see the boys, Bo and Bandit, enjoying all the adventure too! Stunning photography/video as always! Love your channel! Meal looked delicious!
Glad you were able to use the eggs from the pink my son gave you 😁. Beautiful silvers you both caught as well. Heading to Valdez this weekend and hope to catch some to end our season. Good luck with the rest of your season and will look forward to watching upcoming video's. Channing Hawkins
@@SimpleLivingAlaska We headed to Valdez on Friday night and returned Saturday night. We limited out after fishing for a couple of hours in the morning then a couple more hours in the evening. In the morning the bite was good with lures but had to snag in the evening to get the rest of our limit. Good luck to you both when you head down. Be watching out for your next adventures. Will there be a moose hunt in the future? Aloha Channing
It’s always a good day when I see a new post from you guys. I love watching you fish and the beautiful scenery, then seeing food prep is the cherry on top. Thank you for sharing your great adventure.
I am watching your inspiring videos this afternoon, instead of painting! Wow! Time for me to get some painting done and video clips shot for my own RUclips Channel! How do you kids learn so much about your environment to fast? It is wonderful!!
Wow, Eric & Arielle, that’s really the first time I’ve seen such a pronounced hump on a (coho?) salmon. I’ve only seen footage of them as they are very near the end of their journey. I learn something new each time I watch an episode. Thanks for bringing comfort and new knowledge to this old teacher as she approaches 3/4 of a century. I live vicariously through your exploits and love how you approach each new endeavor… Thanks for bringing quality to our lives! Simple Living is a gift! 💞
Hi Suzanne, great observation about the huge hump on the salmon. This is actually a pink salmon, as the adult males will get that hump before they spawn. I hope to go fishing for some here in British Columbia soon. Have a great day!
That video was really great fun! You took us to a salmon run and explained the whole process very clearly. I love when Eric gets really excited like today. He talks super fast like his words are absolutely bursting to get out and he's jumping around in his waders. Always a pleasure to see your smiles too Arielle, you lift me up! See you again soon! 😃😁🤣🐟
Awesome fishing. So nice and relaxing. 30:36 A glimpse of the orchard, lookin' pretty good. Could you give us an update on that orchard? I've been wondering how things are growing...or not. Thanks.
I am going to be honest with you, I think watching fishing is like watching paint dry, but I cannot stop watching y’all’s fishing videos. You make them so engaging and dynamic that I can’t wait for fishing season each year. ❤️
Magnificent fish from the ones you let go to the ones you kept. I’m always impressed by your vegetable garden I’ve always wondered how much more impressive if you had a longer growing season. Great video as usual
Beautiful scenery,looks like a great time to fish. Best of luck to u. I like how u spoil your 🐕 s. Nice salmon catch Eric and Ariel,the look on your faces is priceless.👍👍
I absolutely love that moment before you pull the fish up when you can see the outline under the surface. It's been a while since I went fishing, this is making me want to plan a trip soon!
I don't think I've heard Eric be so excited and animated before. Just like a kid in a candy store lol. Love your work, appreciate the effort! Cheers, Alby, Bathurst Australia
Wild and beautiful - great fishing. What great memories you all are accumulating. Some day you'll look back at these videos and will say, "we sure lived the life".
You should learn how to catch fish in a local river... trout, perhaps. It's easy and extremely good for your mental health. Plus, you can take them home and have a good meal.
Real nice to see Ariel putting the fish back in the water.let it go on its way. Very nice video. Keep that Seen.take care my friends from. The true great white north. 👌 ❤.
I love to watch those fishing shows I go back and look at them. I remember when I used to go it's so relaxing and so much fun every really had a good time on this one.
I love watching y’all catch the fish!! Your excitement makes me smile so much!! Love the beautiful nature videos. Your meals are amazing. Thank you for sharing!!
Living the good life and the dream. You two rock! Wonderful video (s) and experiences. I wish I had stayed there in '73 when I worked on a commercial salmon boat. Thanks for bringing some life and dreaans back to an old broken-down man. :)
Nice job! Another aspect of your videos that I love is checking back in a few days to read Viewer Comments. I've learned so much from you and them over the years ~ you have a much appreciated and super knowledgeable group of subs outs there!
Ooowee! awesome catches, and I grabbed from my memory, the delicious aroma of cooked salmon. mm. That salad looked so inviting. I greatly enjoy tagging along,,, remembering younger days filled with fishing adventures. 🤩 Thank you both. love and prayers hugs. Am most thankful for your wellness and safety. 💟🥳🤗 Peace. 🕊
Really enjoyed this fishing video but I enjoy all of your videos. Salmon is so delicious. When Eric hit the waves from the other boat and Bandit went airborne was scary and awesome at the same time. Good luck with preparing for winter. Love & Peace
Made my nite when the video popped up on my phone. Just came in from mowing. I enjoy all your adventures. From the video skills to the editing. To many people miss the journey an focus on having to get a limit to make it a successful trip an that just isn't so. That's what i enjoy about you two. You do so well meshing it all together. An love the cooking portion at the end. Also like how ya scraped the fish clean not wasting anything. Excellent video
Nothing beats catching fish! The worst day fishing beats the best day working!! The two of you are so lucky to be able to live the life style that you do! Another great video!
I'm 74,I live in the country in Indiana, I love your videos, they bring me joy. I wish you had them on every day. Love you both God bless
Hoosier pal here! From Dearborn County. But live in KY now.
We live in speedway Indiana. This is our favorite channel as well!!
love your videos and to my suprise i found my mum watching your videos one night and mind you she does not speak a word of english and she still really enjoys your content. such an amazing lifestyle u guys live. much love from Australian
turn the translator on
Your mom probably knows how speak more English than you think.
@@SEED_FF hello from Scotland
I had a good laugh, realizing that Australians can't understand Americans speaking, either.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894 I don't think it's about American vs Australian English in this case. OP says his mother doesn't speak English.

Thank you for watching 😁
👍👍👍👍👍
@@SEED_FF 👍
Why did the purple cabbage made me think of little shop of horrors 😂
Anyway, love your videos!
It's been 2 years... just had to watch this again! Awesome! Coho's are just my favorite thing on the planet.
Eric gets so excited you both have great enthusiasm and that’s what counts and you’re having fun
Always a good day when Simple Living Alaska uploads! 🎣🏔🏔🏔
😄Eric turns like 10 years old when he catches a fish... the excitement !! I love that enthusiasm 😀
Shoutout to Arielle for do so much of the filming. Unfortunate that you get stuck filming so much but on the bright side you do it very well. It all equals out, Eric from what I see definitely cooks the most. So shoutout to Eric for all the fantastic cooking. ✌
I believe Eric said he does the editing also.
Seems like Eric does cooking and she does baking.
I was so relieved to finally see Beau. I was worrying about him. Seeing the dogs is a highlight of your videos. ❤️
What a beautiful fishing trip! This is my favorite channel by far! I have learned so much from both of you! So happy to see the boys, Bo and Bandit, enjoying all the adventure too! Stunning photography/video as always! Love your channel! Meal looked delicious!

Lots of Omegas in Coho and they taste amazing. Incredible to be able to catch them in your backyard. Great vlog as always. Thanks for sharing!❤
Great catches and the meal was delicious looking
A flying Bandit!! 😂 He’s so adorable ❤️ All three of your critters are, Pepper looks so soft and Beau is so chill and such a good big brother!

It’s always a good day when I see a new post from you guys. I love watching you fish and the beautiful scenery, then seeing food prep is the cherry on top. Thank you for sharing your great adventure.
Bo knows... Bandit's ready ! Mmmmm... fresh silvers. Delicious.
I am watching your inspiring videos this afternoon, instead of painting! Wow! Time for me to get some painting done and video clips shot for my own RUclips Channel! How do you kids learn so much about your environment to fast? It is wonderful!!
Ein schönes Leben habt ihr dort . Danke für den Film . LG
That's a pretty wonderful day out fishing. And, you have the tasty reward of delicious and healthy salmon. Thanks for sharing a great video.
All I can say is, WOW!!!
What a combo of hard work and fun with a payoff of fresh Salmon.
Again I Loved our fishing trip, Thank You
Amazing underwater photography, and I could almost taste the delicious salad and salmon!

Coho get a hooked nose and turn red.
Gorgeous yummy dinner on those pretty blue plates! What an exciting day of fishing!!
The underwater filming at the end was a nice touch!!! It always pays to watch all the way to the end!!!
Love your dogs! they are such happy people just being with you!
That video was really great fun! You took us to a salmon run and explained the whole process very clearly. I love when Eric gets really excited like today.

Now that's entertainment! Thanks guys.
Awesome fishing. So nice and relaxing. 30:36 A glimpse of the orchard, lookin' pretty good. Could you give us an update on that orchard? I've been wondering how things are growing...or not. Thanks.
I think they mentioned it in their Q&A a few months ago that the orchard didn’t really work out
Such a true fishing saga… “we’ve been here for hours and no luck” (full of sadness) then you get a bite… then a catch and it’s a wonderful day LOL
I am going to be honest with you, I think watching fishing is like watching paint dry, but I cannot stop watching y’all’s fishing videos. You make them so engaging and dynamic that I can’t wait for fishing season each year. ❤️
If you've never caught a fish, I guarantee you'll like watching fishing videos more, after you catch your first.
There you go again. Making us feel bad,!!! Just don't stop,!!!!!! "LOVE YA GUYS".
Magnificent fish from the ones you let go to the ones you kept. I’m always impressed by your vegetable garden I’ve always wondered how much more impressive if you had a longer growing season. Great video as usual
Beautiful scenery,looks like a great time to fish. Best of luck to u. I like how u spoil your 🐕 s. Nice salmon catch Eric and Ariel,the look on your faces is priceless.👍👍
I know the fish is outstanding, but I have to say your veggies are something else. Well done guys. Eat well and enjoy. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Loved it all but have to give big kudos for the parting underwater shots - amazing.
You guys are by far... my all time favorites. Much love from Chicago 💯💯💯
