  • Settle in guys and girls, because this is a long one. In this video, I set out solo (with the exception of spending the first night with Stephanie) on some new waters to canoe, camping and fish for a week. I was not sure what to expect when I was planning this trip, but I was not disappointed in the slightest. You will see some of the best Trout fishing I have gotten to experience here in the Adirondack Mountains of New York while out a canoe trip. Besides the fishing, there was plenty of wildlife to see and hear, and even a bear that decided he wanted a closer look at my campsite.

    Great video as always! And we had a very similar bear encounter at Ross Pond. Something big came in and would not leave, probably at like 8pm. We yelled and banged stuff and it sat and watched us for almost 10 minutes. We saw eyeshine as well. Finally, it left on it's own, but slowly. Always unnerving when they don't get scared off!

    If you put a spacer between the bottom of the muffin tin and the Dutch oven, you shouldn’t get that burning on the bottom of the muffins. You need about an inch of air between the two surfaces. Small (1 inch diameter) stones or balls of aluminum foil work well.
    “Shug” Emery has a (old)video on ‘dry baking’ which is what you’re doing there.
    Have you ever watched the 3 Minutes with a Maine Guide channel?

    • @DaxWoodsWanderer
      @DaxWoodsWanderer  Год назад +1

      Lol I actually watch both Shug and Lisa from 3 Minutes! I know the video does not show it super well, but the tin actually did not go all the way to the bottom of the dutch oven, it was so wide it kinda "balanced" in the middle. I do definitely still need the risers though for some future campfire cooking ideas.

      Yes. The whole deal was a sham. The club was an extraordinary steward and DEC is ruining the fishery. The beaver dam has backed up the entire chain and has caused eutrophication. The deal made hedge fund owners wealthier and caused a lot of problems for the local towns.

Trout are one of my favorites to both catch & eat (most almost always go back) I did pick up a Coleman 1 burner butane hot plate (funny i collect old Coleman lanterns & restore them) can you tell me a little about your griddle...is it aluminum? Looks like the perfect size for the 1 burner and great for doing fish & breakfast. C'mon Spring...i so need to get out there and wet a line as well as a paddle. Thanks bub...keep em coming !

    • @adk_mtnlife
      @adk_mtnlife Год назад

      @DaxWoodsWanderer I'm sure it is for the " leave no trace theory," but don't hold me to that. If people just throw their entrails in the water close to shore, it'll look like a landfill before long..

    Great adventures, really enjoy watching! The reason you should never throw fish guts or clean fish in the water is due to the parasite that causes whirling disease. If you have never seen a trout that has been affected, it is a very sad sight for sure. The parasite is in Adirondack waters, unfortunately.

      @@DaxWoodsWanderer You can shave down the barb, this is less traumatic, but you're going to have more fish flop off the hook. I use a seven-inch hemostat that is curved. grab the fish by the bottom jaw this is well tolerated and you can hoist them out of the water with little damage. If you are looking to get photo control the head with the clamp, with the other hand cradle the fish in your palm as close to the tail as you can maintain control. Not that it matters to me I have really had a hard time trout and landlocks. The water has been warm and the bottom vegetation has grown to the point its a challenge to get my fly to the fish. I've been told the booming population of Loons and Osprey could be the source.
