I love that you guys are genuinely happy out there with negative temps and bone-chilling windchill while catching dinner. Your enthusiasm is simply infectious! Love Eric's joy with catching that fish!
I can barely stand walking from my front door to my car after a hard freeze, and then have to scrape ice from my windshield...let alone even think of living in such frigid conditions. Eric and Ariel are both amazing people and they're a beautiful couple to watch.
@@RhinoDNA You are being fooled. I'll help you out that being that you can't do your own research. Check out OUR WINTER TRIP TO THE OFF GRID CABIN IN ALASKA video.
@@RhinoDNA Our Winter Trip To the Off Grid Cabin. Watch it. This cabin is NOT their full time residence. People that follow THINK it is. It is not. All you are watching are two people going to their cabin for a few days and they are running to the bank with viewerships.
Hunting when I was a kid my uncle would keep a few chocolate covered raisins in his pocket and pretended to eat deer poop. He’d act like he knew all kind of stuff about the deer by the taste. “Still a little warm in the center so definitely fresh…..slight hint of berries so it’s been through the eastern side of the property “. Still chuckle looking back at his glorious dad joke. Enjoy your meal worms. 😉
I was scared when you drove onto the ice! Eric's excitement when he caught the trout - priceless, and those wraps looked tasty! Trust Bo to sniff out a meal 🤣❤️
Hi! It’s a very common thing for us to drive on the frozen lakes. It’s just important to know the thickness of the ice and beware of temperatures. 🌺 Jen
I've been fishing in SE Alaska for the past 30 years and I still love watching folks get excited when there's a "fish on". That expression on Eric's face at time index 15:58 is priceless. Part of why it's so fun watching your stories. Great job.
I’m so glad you two found each other (and decided to share your life/interests on utube.) it’s a treat to see people happy together doing (some weird) stuff🎉
I smiled so big when Eric got his fish, and even bigger watching Ariel’s run with the Pita Bread. Thanks for sharing a bit of your life and adventures with us!
You guys make me so happy, you have no idea the light you bring in to my days, rather nights for I’m in bed. As I told you I am a senior living alone and you come like a blessing with lots of fun and love among yourselves which reaches me as bright light. Have more fun and a good meal. Blessings. More videos please, beautiful people!!!
I am so happy to see humans being so happy as they make their chickens happy LOL that’s a lot of HAPPINESS being shown and going around…love your videos and the two of you all together ❤
I love that you guys take good care of your dogs and try to make sure that they're warm and comfortable. Sleeping on something soft and have blankets and stuff. ❤❤
I swear, if you opened a destination bed/breakfast/dude working ranch getaway and I was rich, I would book a week in a heartbeat. You both inspire me in your beautiful relationship and how you are totally a team. All the best to you both!!
Yes, I am a ski instructor and use my hands a lot outside in frigid temps, but have learned to wear a thin pair of cheap, knit mittens under a thick set of warm gloves. So when I take my hands out, the skin is not exposed. It's worst when touching wet things like fish, or metal like packing the car. Note that they opted to go home and warm up before cooking over the fire!
Well, it’s still true. Every time I watch your videos, my jealousy comes up at how beautiful it is there and how much fun you have as well as my mouth watering!
I had so much fun watching this (3 times!)...it's like I was there (almost) to feel the excitement and the thrill of catching such a prize! Way to go, guys! And thanks!
Wow, you struck gold with that large trout. You had our mouths watering when you made your fish tacos. So enjoy you two. Its just great to see you live life. Till next time, be safe..
Love this fishing trip. Puppies stayed home for this one. The trout are so beautiful. My daughter does block prints. Her fish prints are awesome. Hubby just asked me to cook breakfast outside😳y’all grilled out Feb 5th on my 51st wedding anniversary👰Sending our best to you guys from Alabama👫
Cheers to kindness The thing that need to be done you two do them together. You both bring an energy that's infectious too everything you're doing . It's so enjoyable to watch. With what's going on in the world your positive and kind relationship is encouraging. Cheers
Yumm delicious!!! I’m currently making Crab stuffed Salmon filet for dinner! A video from you guys is always such a great treat! Stay happy, warm and blessed!
To Eric, please don’t take this wrong because I love ya brother but there are LOTS of guys that like to live like you (and I) do. On the other hand, there are very few women that truly love living like you all do. It is very apparent that not only does Arielle love this lifestyle but she is exceptional at it - she is that ‘one in a million’ woman. You are one blessed hombre! I have no doubt that you already know this but I just wanted to point it out to recognize your very special and unique woman. Regards from the Kenai Peninsula.
You 2 bring fishing to the next level! My son is on a fishing boat in Alaska catching Cod, about 250 on a good day, but your excitement catching the 1 big trout was priceless! A campfire on snow, so interesting. We are only 77 degrees today in Hawaii so a bit chilly for us. Stay warm & keep being so cool!! Thank you for your enthusiasm & sharing your amazing lives with us. Be safe.
Seeing Eric's reaction to catching that monster trout, I can relate to the rush. You stuck in there through all the small ones and it paid off!!! I like your adventures please keep it up.
I love your picnic with the furry child, Bo! Those pitas look delicious. Your fishing trip made me giggle, too. Those little fry just couldn't wait to nibble your bait! ☮️ Peace and love 💜 from Kimberly in South Dakota 💙❤️
The absolute joy you two radiate when you got that big fish, is so infectious. I'm sitting at my desk in Australia with fans blasting eating crumbed fish, laughing with you two, as you stand in the freezing cold, catching live fish. You bring such joy to so many people.
When I started watching, 3m after you posted this, I was Like #99. When I finished watching (no breaks), you had over 1,000 Likes. I do believe people are hungry for anything SLA fishes & dishes up!
Oregon born and raised here. We live off grid here and alaska off grid is my dream! Thanks for the informative entertainment and inspiration as always guys 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love watching your videos. I just ate, but that beauty of a fish with garlic paste, selfmade Pita Bread and Jalapenos made me hungry again. I love the harmony in your relationship! Greetings from Berlin, Germany. Wish you the best!
Your show is one I never get tired of reruns. I live for your new year, because of all the great adventures. Thanks again for all that you do. God Bless You.
Enjoyed going fishing with you two. When Eric caught the big one I celebrated right with you all. Always looking forward to the next adventure. Thank you for a fun time.
There was a time in my life I was so broke in college expenses, it's not funny but when you are really hungry, I think the game give them self. I had only Dove and field corn. I went to Horsetooth lake and caught trout and a man there told me about his son how had cancer. We cooked the fish that night and we shared words, he told me all about his son and I knew how fortunate I was and how small my situation was. We ate good fish and potatoes. You are really blessed. I know you deserve good fortune. I really admire your living style. God Bless You each day.
The small ones are worth keeping when you're fishing to eat. It might surprise you at the yield and the taste! Love your videos and approach to life! I bet your wife has caught a brook trout, if so that is the first char she's caught in Alaska and she has caught char in other places in the world. ;-)
Eric, instead of using the slush spoon to clear your holes, use the auger to clear out the ice/snow after you've cleared around your hole. Makes things a lot easier & your not pulling the fish up over a mound of frozen waste. Just my opinion, always enjoy the vids you and Ariel put out.
I’m obsessed with you two. The new video really made my evening. I watched some old videos from 3 years ago, while I was waiting for a new one. Keep them coming 😍
I am a true Eric and Ariel fan, have seen every video It is a joy to see that they have slowly built their little slice of heaven. I wish them every success. I can't wait until we learn what the next project is.
1,000's of people smiled when Eric caught that trout.
I know. It was thrilling.
thats true- I was as excited as Eric- lol
Yep, I was one of them. True excitement right there guys.
That was the best part, he was excited understandably.
Arielle running out with the bread was my highlight! lol Eric and the trout were a close second!
I love that you guys are genuinely happy out there with negative temps and bone-chilling windchill while catching dinner. Your enthusiasm is simply infectious! Love Eric's joy with catching that fish!
I can barely stand walking from my front door to my car after a hard freeze, and then have to scrape ice from my windshield...let alone even think of living in such frigid conditions. Eric and Ariel are both amazing people and they're a beautiful couple to watch.

I’m eating oatmeal with nuts, too! 😊
I’m nuts about oatmeal!
And I'm a nut eating oatmeal !!!!!!!
I'm eating oatmeal with fruit! It's like a little oatmeal club in here.
@@agnesskibicka nice to hear from you. I will check out your channel and btw, my wife’s father was born in Poland.
Small world. Have a great day!
The comraderie between you guys is so good to see. You two are a team. That's one of the attributes that is so enjoyable to watch🦐🐟
I honestly believe that they wouldn't know how to live apart.
Their dynamics are uplifting and make me a better spouse, just saying.

You two are my FAVORITE RUclips couple. You are so beautiful and perfect together. Thank you for all you do. Blessings of grace and peace. 🙏🏼

More videos please, beautiful people!!!
My heart hurt a bit when you used your windshield wipers over ice :D :D
I love that you guys went out by the bees to cook and eat your trout. The scenery out there with the snow covered trees is just amazing!
Excellent combination of outdoor life and simple cooking Alaska!
I know I’m not the only one who broke out in smiles when that fish was caught. Thanks for always making me happy. ❤️
I am so happy to see humans being so happy as they make their chickens happy LOL that’s a lot of HAPPINESS being shown and going around…love your videos and the two of you all together ❤
Love when you guys cook!
I love that you guys take good care of your dogs and try to make sure that they're warm and comfortable. Sleeping on something soft and have blankets and stuff. ❤❤
You two are a hoot. What a team. Really appreciated the first 2 to 3 minutes as a view of what Alaska is really like. Keep up the good work.
'Living the Dream' is all that I can say, well deserved because of all the work you two put into that dream!🥰
My heart was thumping for you, Eric, when you brought in that trout!!!
I absolutely love your excitement on the “huge rainbow”. Makes me smile along with you
You two are so good at putting a story line together. That was fun to watch.
Genuine excitement is so much fun to watch. I think God smiles when we enjoy the world He has created. Praise Him for good days.
I swear, if you opened a destination bed/breakfast/dude working ranch getaway and I was rich, I would book a week in a heartbeat. You both inspire me in your beautiful relationship and how you are totally a team. All the best to you both!!
I smiled when Beau came around and got a nibble. No really, I love it all!
I’m always amazed at how long Eric can be out there without gloves on. My hands would be freezing.
I always think the same thing. Makes my fingertips burn seeing it.

My favorite part was the pause for a kiss in the middle of all that fun!!!!!!
You guys make my heart smile 💜
oh my gosh the excitement when eric caught that fish love it...your videos are so enjoyable hope you keep them coming..
It is obvious the trust and love you have for each other, the adventures and outings always seem perfect even when you don't catch fish.
Yum! Arctic Char! I used to sell them to people as 'salmon without the salmon aftertaste.
Living the dream guys. I think you caught half the fish in that lake. What a day to have you guys had.
“Oh my gosh” Simple Living Alaska T-Shirts please!
Well, it’s still true. Every time I watch your videos, my jealousy comes up at how beautiful it is there and how much fun you have as well as my mouth watering!
The sheer excitement of Eric catching an eatable rainbow was delightful! Well done guys! 👏🏻👏🏻👌...oh hello sweet Bo, you gorgeous dog you! 😍
Eric's reaction when he caught that fish is priceless.
I had so much fun watching this (3 times!)...it's like I was there (almost) to feel the excitement and the thrill of catching such a prize! Way to go, guys! And thanks!

Beautiful looking fish, so glad you had some luck today. Really enjoy seeing you both and the joy you find in your days. Have a fantastic week.
I love how absolutely excited Ariel gets every time you guys go fishing. She's like a kid over Christmas. I love it.

@@serena.kunstwerk ty hun yes it was I’m on The east coast and crabs are major here anything crab stuffed I can make or crab cakes I’m game lol
I hope you both never loose your enthusiasm for fishing and life together.
U guys caught MANY big fish before. But the excitement Eric portrayed when he caught that one was still priceless. Put a smile on my face 😊

Great job Eric I was so excited when you got that fish I keep saying ‘Let’s see it let’s see it’. Love love love watching y’all! God Bless you guys.
I would be so scared driving, walking, camping and fishing on a frozen lake. Wow! you two constantly amaze me.
You 2 bring fishing to the next level! My son is on a fishing boat in Alaska catching Cod, about 250 on a good day, but your excitement catching the 1 big trout was priceless!

That was a pretty meaty fish. Your both the happiest couple and can have a blast no matter what your doing.
Oh my! Chills up my spine! I was very concerned for you guys driving on the lake! Glad you got home safely!
Your backdrop while you're eating your fresh everything is beyond splendid, This is find dining at it's best.
Love all that snow!!
The look on Eric’s face was nothing short of priceless when he got the big one! ❤️😊
Eric’s reaction to his big fish was priceless! Glad you enjoyed your time fishing and your dinner! 🌺 Jen
A true Oregonian…”a quick stop at Freddie’s”. Love it. 💙

Love the excitement when he got the big rainbow awesome reaction.
Loved Eric’s excitement when he caught the trout , you 2 make the finest videos ❤️
I love to wake at 2am and your video smiling at me you both are so committed to your expertise for the outdoors God bless you both

pink or bubblegum are classic colors for trout!!! So good.
I love how the comments are super supportive. Most people in California shame people for keeping fish of that quality! Keep up the catch and cooks!!!
Thank goodness they are in Alaska.
well yes they do,,,they shame someone for steping on a flower but have nothing to say about aborting babies......
Do people in California fish?🙄
@@dinahquillen9380 we do actually. But like I said some fishermen think it’s okay to shame fellow fisherman for practicing their rights.
Doesn't matter what you cook, it always makes me hungry!

Just another day in alaska: Moose on a trailer!
Best thing I've heard all week.
Persistance pays off! Way to go guys! Love your vlogs! I feel as if I am there!
How excited Eric was when he caught the larger rainbow. All I could do was smile at both of your excitement. Thank you for sharing. Love your videos.
You are not required to taste the bait! 😂

You should make a outdoor cookbook! You two make the best food!
Great catch! Loved the way y'all enjoyed it too.
I love Bo. He's such a good dog. Love you too, Bandit.
Don't forget the beautiful fluffy Pepper.
