That was some nice backcountry and good bass fishing. Just wondering why use a fly rod when a spinning real would be more convenient? Awesome video 📹 looking forward to the next 1⃣ 💯 😎 🔥

Sydney was a champ!

Thanks Alex

Syd has officially caught at least 300% more fish than I have on a fly rod! Thanks for sharing. Cheers!!!

Great time following you two. I spend a lot of time kayaking the lakes in SW NOVA.

Nice to see the ladies behind the Scavengers

Came across your channel and must say I truly found your adventures so enjoyable. I grew up camping, canoeing, scuba diving and fishing with my folks and my grandparents and extended family. When is cousins get together we still laugh and share all the memories that we made. Thank you for a great video I look forward to seeing more of your adventures

Dude - She's a keeper...And your camp/cooking game is top shelf...

OMG, my father used to make peanut butter and bacon sandwiches by the Atlantic for my mom when they dated. She’d tell me about those, but never made one on her own. When I got out on my own I’d make them after scuba diving on the coast, toasted over an open fire just like you are doing but with bread. Then I had my own kids and would take them on walks in the forest, always bringing something to eat cause that’s how you reward kids for slogging through wet brush and green briar jungles with dad. I can still see and smell the bacon smoking and dripping as we cooked it on green sticks hanging over the flame. Bread got toasted on a rock facing the fire. Those sandwiches were heaven. My youngest named them LumGrun. What the heck? I asked him, which is the Lum and which is the Grun. He told me the bread and peanut butter was the Lum. The bacon was Grun. Lum Grun. Now they are grown and gone but I still carry the fixings when I go off into the forest or river. Nothing tastes as good as Lum Grun. Memories….

Can't believe it has already been 5 years. That is a tough thermarest situation but if it works, it works. Great fishing out there - thanks for sharing!

Great to see a new video and hoping for lots more as we head to winter!

Hello this is Meg from upstate New York and I’m back again to watch another one of your videos. So glad to see that it’s not that far out on the three months. Can’t wait to see what you’re doing

The portage was well worth the campsite, and private lake, I think Sidney handled the trip well. Cheers!

Water flowing through and under rock... yes, that has its own sound, you crazy poet you. Bravo!

Sydney rocked it! Great vid! Yessss on the Cabot Trail❤️

Thanks for posting. Looked like a grand old time.

Wow what a cool little camping trip,looked very enjoyable.

A fun trip! thx sso much guys

Not to state something others may have said but inflation sacks and pumps for sleeping pads make a HUGE difference. Lol Love your videos. Keeps me outdoors while in.

Awesome seeing you and your girl friend out together.

Nice trip! Thanks for sharing this video.

I'd rather gnaw on the gunnels of that canoe than eat humus. Lol. Great show, greater shorts!. It is impossible to catch a fish and NOT smile. Impossible. TY and God Bless.

Always enjoy your videos Alex. Where was this excursion? I have been paddling in Ontario for a few years now but as a Bluenoser only explored a few parks and rivers in NS. Gear wraps are a great idea. Why didn't I think of that during our Temagami trip, duh?!!

haven't seen anyone comment that those silicon straps are called "Heli Straps" if you were looking for some different sizes Let me know if you ever want to backcountry ski

What make and mod of axe are you using in this video?? How do you like it? Seems like it works well. Thanks and great video!

Great stuff Alex and Sydney! What is your fly rod length and weight? I am an avid angler but just picked up up a new fly combo and a couple used ones to try here in Nova Scotia. One is only 6ft in length (4 wt) which seems pretty short but for a canoe trip I imagine it could be perfect instead of trying to land a fish with a 9ft rod.

@NorthernScavenger

Yeah the 6ft would be interesting. I have the Echo Base and it is the 6wt and I believe 9ft in length. Tight lines!

I have the same mattress and it takes me 100 breaths! Also I'm wondering which lake you're on. You portaged away from a lake with cottages - only to find a lake with a designated camping spot?!

Too bad you didn't bring some big lures versus the flies as I suspect there are some bigger fish in there that would be attracted to larger bates.
