    I rarely comment on videos, but I am so glad I found this. I saw an ad for Old Time Hawkey’s new cookbook on Facebook, which piqued my interest enough with its lovely cover and description to dig a little deeper. Found you on RUclips. This is the first video I’ve watched. I absolutely love it. The sounds, the scenery, The wonderfulness of it all, your lovely accents, all very foreign to me, a 46-year-old Mum from Queensland Australia. Thank you! I can’t wait to show this to my son. I can’t wait to watch more videos and I can’t wait to get that cookbook! 😊❤

    Epic collab. The stache power was overwhelming. Nice pickle rod. My brother bought me the same one. The perch roe doughnut changed my life. Just got back from a lake saint clair, mi. ice fishing evening and tried it tonight. Sad thing is I'm cresting over 40 yrs old and just found out about it from this very episode, although the younger me probably never would have tried it 😂 I could find nothing on a Google search for recipes. Put that in a cookbook! Well done gentlemen. Well done.

    I really enjoyed this. I have fond memories of float tube fishing perch here during the perch spawning season with some friends more than 30 years ago where we would cast flies (I can't remember what kind) towards the bank from a very short distance out in the lake. There were 3-4 of us and we would unhook each other's catch and fill up a cooler in short order. The rule was once you were unhooking if another guy hooked up you had to continue to unhook before returning to casting. There were times when one of us was "stuck" unhooking as we struggled to keep fish off our lines. I have understood that there was a boom and bust cycle in Cascade for perch for quite some time. This episode was very fulfilling to me in that it gave me insight as to the possible causes and how IDFG has sought to manage the fishery. I wonder if water quality issues, in particular, the affect of Deadwood Reservoir and harmful algae blooms, might play a role in the overall quality of the fisheries here. PS. You left us hanging on the story of the tagged fish!! This needs a follow-up.

    Only speaking for myself but this was a great video! I was very close to unsubscribing recently because of how many podcasts etc have been flooding my feed.

    Loved this video, my 2 cents is to do more of this stuff. 🔥
