It was great to see the whole family out enjoying the day with you on the water. Hopefully in the future the little ones will take their kids out to show them how their grandpa taught them to net salmon. The fillets sure looked good. I'll be heading to Alaska soon and am looking forward to eating some good fresh caught wild salmon! You sure whet my appetite!
Was a pleasure really, was alot harder years ago when we were at this commerically & had alot more nets out. Yes actually had a few rock cods & some scolpins the gopro wasn't tipped down enough to see. Fishery officers take any extra & they are taged & given to older & sick people. Sure was, you pick the big out & let the rest dry up & shake it out. Thanks, appreciate it ..!!
Any extra caught are taken & taged by the Nunatukavut organization & given to elders & so on, its well managed. The commerical fishery was closed years ago so the stocks are very strong. Never trolled for salmon but works very well for artic char, will give it a try for salmon.
Thank's, i'm getting a little more sport fishing in than I normally do during the summer months & must say i'm really enjoying it. Take care, looking forward to some fall hunting ..!!
Thanks, the kids really enjoyed it we all did, was a much needed holiday. Certainly hope so that would certainly make me proud, enjoy your trip my friend, all the best from Labrador ..!!
Thank you, yes was good to get the kids out. Salmon fishing with rod is certainly a thrill, don't get to do it often but certainly enjoy it when I do. Thank you sure will, actually had some for supper today & gonna keep some smoked for taking on boilups ..!!
Those rock cod are pretty good eating....I got one of those nets but it is illegal to set them here...I still do though from time to time....I believe a man should be able to feed his family any way he can.
Nice vid william and nice to see good weather to get the family out. I love salmon fishing but just catch and release on rod and reel. I'm not a big salmon eater. Enjoy my friend
Those are Atlantic salmon, we use to fish these commerical, but the commerical fishery closed years ago, this is part of a food fishery, we get 6 tags from the NunatuKavut organization to fill. Had smoked salmon for supper, smoked salmon & cold beer ..lol Back out to sea tomorrow, so couple beers tonight, cheers buddy ..!!
Nice video! Haven't had the time to do any fishing this summer myself but looking forward to getting out more in the fall. Those salmon looked really good in the clear water!
You welcome, hope when you do you get it on camera, I had a trip up to Shinneys brook, didn't land either one but dipped a nice one for my old highschool principle. One think about fishing is you don't have to land a fish to have a good time :)
I no it's all work but it looks like fun work...Something I would like to try someday...Do you ever catch any other fish when you set the nets for salmon? And what happens when you get more than your 6? Like backyard said...Its got to be a pain in the ass getting all the weeds out of the net...Great video William....
6 per family, you can also catch salmon for another family but if they transfer a licence for you to catch for them then they are only allowed 4 salmon. I caught 4 for my aunt & 4 for a friend. Thank you ..William ..!!
Any chance you going to Old Crow and videoing some salmon fishing, checking out your country on that side of the continent? I saw some fish wheels in Dawson looks like it would really be cool to visit one, different than char in a net.
Hey Muskrat that would be cool to see, guess there like the ones on (Yukon Men) The feller that built the first one of those must of had a good imagination ..lol
Sure was, done a bit of salmon fishing last summer as well, we have a salmon food fishery that we do every year, but had computers troubles at that time, still could of made a vid I guess, would have been outdated a bit that's all. Looking forward again the summer as well ....!!!
6 salmon per family, other people can transfer a licence for you to catch their salmon but if you get someone to catch your salmon you only get 4 tags.
The fish traps I saw in Dawson were a lot less involved than the ones on Yukon Men. They seemed commercial made. Sorry I did not take a better look at them.
Thank you, this is part of a food fishery we get 6 tags to fill, you can transfer a licence for someone to catch your salmon but you can only get 4 on a transferred licence. There are regulations on mesh size, season dates & so on ..!!
Winters here are harsh we don't have any fish farms here in Labrador, there are a few further South around Newfoundland island. Our salmon food fishery opens in a couple weeks, looking forward to filling the tags, were only allowed 6 hopefully get a few large ones out of it.....
+William Larkham Jr (Bigland Trapper) no tags here. We fish year round. There are 20 salmon farms with in 1 hour of us. We fish year round. We have mild winters with little to no snow. I smoked 2 salmon yesterday. Jim
We have one quota of crab landed waiting for the ice to clear to get into another zone. Our season usually starts late May early June depending on amount of ice that made during the winter.....So looking forward to getting a salmon in the smoker, enjoy, its one of my favorite things to eat......
They sure are, most of the 10 - 12 pounders are already passed through before the season opens. They are a great eating fish, looking forward to filling the tags again the summer. All salt water, this is in William's Harbour, open to the North Atlantic ...!!
I have tied flies before but I don't get to fly fish very often, I spend quiet a bit of time out to sea during the summer months.. I fish traditionally, with rods, with pots, cast net, otter trawl & so on, I do it all.....
OK, I see, you´re an all round fisherman. I am a fly fisher and fly tier. So that is what I call sport fishing. That´s why I do not like fishing with nets... It is commercial and grabby and not enjoyable in my eyes...
I love all your videos! but people need to learn that Netting fish is not a sustainable solution to catching fish, would of been better to get those tags by trolling a spinner or spoon, cus what happens if you catch more than 6 in a net? sorry to sound like winer... lol Have you every tried Trolling for salmon? with abig red devil or rapala? work great! giver a shot sometime =)

Still no luck here on the rock, they look nice! Brings back memories... Thanks for sharing!

Hi William, the whole family out there fishing, great, thanks for sharing, take care Taro
Thank's, didn't take long to fill the tags, lots of salmon around the commerical fishery was closed years ago.
Nice vid william and nice to see good weather to get the family out. I love salmon fishing but just catch and release on rod and reel. I'm not a big salmon eater. Enjoy my friend

Thank you, always enjoys reading the comments, feedback like this makes it all worth while ..!!
Were allowed 6 per family, these tags are from the NunatuKavut organization as part of a food fishery, they have to be taged when caught.
Nice video! Haven't had the time to do any fishing this summer myself but looking forward to getting out more in the fall. Those salmon looked really good in the clear water!
Thank you, the kids really enjoyed the trip, will be doing much the same duing the Golden Cod Festival, hopefully get a few cod fish ..!!
Fun day on the water with the family,,nice vid.
Yes, didn't take long for the net to get dirty, if I never got my salmon that haul I would of put a clean one back. Thank you appreciate it ..!!
I bet getting all that sea weed out of the net is a bit of a chore, nice video and congrats on the fish!
Nice way to spend some time with the family .THANKS .
Thanks, certainly was, didn't take long to fill the tags ..!!
Thank's sure was, we were pretty much non stop for a few days, the kids love in boat ..!!
Cool way of catching salmon. Good catches

Another Great video buddy, 5*****Stars and a Thumbs up buddy.......
Thank you ...!!
Thank's, one of my favorite things to eat, goes great with a ceasar salad ..!!
I always like seeing what you got going on buddy. A whole different world for me.
What kind of salmon are those?
They’re salmon
I never tryed rock cod before but people say they are a little sweeter than cod. Totally agree ..!!
Any chance you going to Old Crow and videoing some salmon fishing, checking out your country on that side of the continent? I saw some fish wheels in Dawson looks like it would really be cool to visit one, different than char in a net.
Great catch!!!
Nice trip.... You can only keep 6 salmon each? or per family? Love the ending w/ the whole family... Greetings from nc tim
Yes sir it's a comfort when you can catch a few meals of fish & not worry about being turned into a criminal ..lol Thank's budddy, appreciate it ..!!
Looks like a good catch.
Thank's yes salmon especially smoked salmon is hard to beat for me, I'll be eating it often tell it's gone ..!!
Thank you ..!!
Look 👀 after the land with nets for salmon.
Can this be set far below the surface or is it restricted to top water application
Hey Muskrat that would be cool to see, guess there like the ones on (Yukon Men) The feller that built the first one of those must of had a good imagination ..lol
Looked like a great time!
Sure was, done a bit of salmon fishing last summer as well, we have a salmon food fishery that we do every year, but had computers troubles at that time, still could of made a vid I guess, would have been outdated a bit that's all. Looking forward again the summer as well ....!!!
Thank, really appreciate it ..!!

How many per season can you catch with a net?
Looks real fun
It sure was thanks ..!!
Nice video what kinds of regulations you have on them.
Thank you, this is part of a food fishery we get 6 tags to fill, you can transfer a licence for someone to catch your salmon but you can only get 4 on a transferred licence. There are regulations on mesh size, season dates & so on ..!!
Had some for dinner today but lucky that was from my brothers catch ..lol
Smoked Salmon, YUMMY !
I wish could fish for salmon here in Churchill falls
Good video
look like Atlantics. very nice fish.
That's right they are Atlantic salmon, they are a very nice eating fish ...!!
What size mesh do you use for Salmon?
Were allowed to use either 3 1/2 to 4 inch..... I use 4..
are you only allowed so many each season is why you tag them
We have huge salmon farms here.
Winters here are harsh we don't have any fish farms here in Labrador, there are a few further South around Newfoundland island. Our salmon food fishery opens in a couple weeks, looking forward to filling the tags, were only allowed 6 hopefully get a few large ones out of it.....
+William Larkham Jr (Bigland Trapper) no tags here. We fish year round. There are 20 salmon farms with in 1 hour of us. We fish year round. We have mild winters with little to no snow.
I smoked 2 salmon yesterday. Jim

No.16 comment. Really nice video!
Thanks, cant wait for it to open again..!!
try putting a hook at the end of your net so when the fish are swimming along the net they get trapped in the hook
Were not allowed to do that now but we use to do it years ago when there was a commercial salmon fishery...
Nice fish! I guess that's all salt water...
They sure are, most of the 10 - 12 pounders are already passed through before the season opens. They are a great eating fish, looking forward to filling the tags again the summer. All salt water, this is in William's Harbour, open to the North Atlantic ...!!
I could live on salmon pretty cool
This is called fly fishing for salmon...Have you ever tried to tie a salmon fly?
?????? This is called Setting & Checking Salmon Net !!!!!
You´re a real sport fisherman without fishing rod!!! LOL
I have tied flies before but I don't get to fly fish very often, I spend quiet a bit of time out to sea during the summer months.. I fish traditionally, with rods, with pots, cast net, otter trawl & so on, I do it all.....
OK, I see, you´re an all round fisherman. I am a fly fisher and fly tier. So that is what I call sport fishing. That´s why I do not like fishing with nets... It is commercial and grabby and not enjoyable in my eyes...

That's elagll
We have a food fishery, we get 6 tags to fill....
I would rather catch spiders or butterflies in the net than fish LOL
Thank you, appreciate it ..!!
