    Recently retired warden here
    California penal code 25640 describes the exemption to the prohibition of concealed carry of a firearm for licensed hunters and anglers.
    So while fishing, concealed carry by a licensed angler is legal. I always recommend an angler print a copy of that exemption and keep it with them because I have found many deputies/police/CHP are not aware of that exemption.
    Additionally, while on federal land avoid carrying into any structure of any kind.

    Matts, no need for one in the chamber most of the time. Pulling the slide takes a fraction of a second but leaving it out of the chamber makes the firearm much safer if you were to take a spill on your bike or slip and get banged up in the rapids. Just my two cents. I also carry while in the bush.

    I use the Hard Cast Flat Nose rounds in Idaho while in the woods; Hollow points may work on a bear without a fat layer (such as right out of their den in the Spring) but otherwise the hollow point will splatter the fat layer and may not not penetrate into anything vital... and it really aggravates the bear! I really like the copper Lehigh projectile that is loaded by Underwood. You have the best cinematography of any RUclips sports channel... your layout and angles with your drone are the best. Thank you!

      Agreed... I carry the G40 10mm longslide with the underwood ammo up here in Idaho as well. Even with the longer barrel of the G40 I wouldn't trust hollow points to get through and stop a charging bear. 10mm is already on the low end of bear defense....better to shoot over penetration than under when a bear is determined to put the hurt on ya.

    Awesome yet again! As a fellow outdoorsman and gun enthusiast, YES open carry while hunting & fishing, AS WELL AS spend some time at your local range/national forest/BLM Land with your firearm to get to know how the firearm operates. Just like cars & driving, firearms are tools, so you must learn to properly use them in the best of times and the worst of times; as well as understand all the rules associated. Cheers!

    The blood line you reference is actually the kidney of the fish. I've spent over 40 years romping through forest and wilderness areas in the West and have never felt the need to carry a firearm for safety. All of the bears I have encountered have tucked tail as soon as they realize you are there and the only lion I've seen is when it crossed the road in front of me. I'll carry bear spray in some areas like in Grizzly country. I only time I carry a gun in the woods is when I hunt.

    Man when I was a kid and I mean 9 years old, I took Hunters Safety school and when I was 10 I got my Hunting License from California Fish And Game. I used to carry a riffle or shotgun almost everywhere I hiked. That was 43 years ago. Even my buddy from school did the same thing and we would go fishing and hunting all the time together. So many rules now. Now the only rule I prescribe to now is "Don't break into my house". It won't go well. I lived in California then... I live in Florida now. .. I can legally wax somebody just for trespassing on my property. Of course that depends on a few things. Are they armed? Do they have criminal records? Did they try to steal things? Did they try to break into my house? Guy trying to break in my front door... I just shoot right through the door and call 911. Let the cops file the report. Matt you should file for a concealed carry permit. It's not that hard to do.

    Butter, avocado, trout, and Italian sausage yum! Best part of catching. Off season and where? Thinking of local mountains LA area but the fires have closed many parts around here, may head up to the eastern sierra for some last minute end of season fishing. Thank you for sharing!

    Fisher on!!! just decided to let you know since 2018,I've noticed in past videos, the bigger catch just somehow happens to come your way, without you even trying to impress.From the small boat to the medium sized upgrade out on sea to fishing and cooking with others on the channel..🙃 it's your gift ✨ you have the ability to attract decent to great catches with ease and you also kept me through the covid era (with my other yt account)..just taught I'd let you know that dude,you are the golden catch 🪝.okay I'm gonna go back to watching you in silence 🤐 again.peace

    Wild trout tastes better than farm raised trout. I've caught wild trout in Yosemite and Strawberry. Awesome catch and cook on the trout. I've tried using the crickets🦗 when I was fishing in Lake Camanche and the trouts were not biting it either. Nightcrawlers will guarantee a fish bite. Awesome post! 🤙🏽

    Ok, love the videos Matt, and what a location! But as someone who has spent a great deal of time in the outdoors in true wilderness (bush Alaska). I am a little disturbed by how much emphasis urban dwellers place on firearms when venturing into the wild. Those things will only keep you safe if 1) you are trained and competent with the weapon and 2) you can keep your cool when encountering sudden danger. Almost everything in the wild including bears and mountain lions will want to avoid humans so take your gun but don't be nervous up there. Also, get someone to teach you motocross skills such as how to navigate your bike safely downhill in rough terrain. Believe it or not, the Front brake is the most important! Gloves and good footwear as well as a helmet will protect you in a crash. You can take that stuff off while you're fishing. That said, best of luck on your adventures.

    Just a little advice, always keep the same type of ammo throughout the mag, switching rounds up like this will likely cause a jam and that is something you don’t want when running into a grizzley .

    When you hold the minus button and the bike is in peddle assist 1 or above the bike will go into walk mode into you take your finger off the minus button. This helps to walk up steep hills instead of feathering the throttle
