Hard to believe, but this is the first new canoe tripping video in 7 months, and the first one with Erin in over 9 months. Another trip has already happened since this one, and another one starts this weekend 😁 Great to be back out!

The comfort is fantastic. Comparing to a tent, tradition hammock, and diagonal-sleeping hammock, the Amok is the most comfortable. Slightly more of a learning curve to them. Very well designed and crafted.

I've been watching your channel as I'm learning to fish and I finally hooked my first fish, from the canoe, on a backcountry lake! I was trolling with my new rod holder when a huge fish just slammed my lure, bent my rod right over, fought like crazy and spat my pinched hook the moment I made a mistake. It was awesome.

I do get to experience some of your birds though, either in late fall thru mid-spring, like the White-throated Sparrow, or birds just passing thru', like the Swainson's Thrush. My favorite avian song belongs to the Wood Thrush, for the same reasons as your affection for the Swainson's. I sure wish the Winter Wrens sang when they are here. Seems like you guys should call them Summer Wrens. Happy Birding, from the southern US.

I recently did my first hammock camping trip. Who would have thought it would have been such a comfortable and ultralight way to camp. I packed my fishing kayak with gear and headed out on crown land. Loved it. The hammock is much lighter to pack than a tent, and when the conditions are right, so much more beautiful of an experience to sleep in. Great video, those veggies and seasoned steaks looked delicious! Love how you always offer Erin the first sip of beer. Chivalry is a great trait!

Good video. I love my Original Bug Jacket, couldn't live without it, especially in the Spring. As for tackle, I've split the difference, replaced most of my trebles with single barbed hooks. Get fewer hookups but when I do they are way easier to release and rarely come off. Not as many snags either, or finger accidents.👍

You're freeeee!!!! And you got some bug shirts. Those things haven't changed one iota in at least 25 years, but they're great when the bugs are really bad. I think they're more suited to use a ball cap underneath that your fancy dancy hat though. You may find that more comfortable. They're a little annoying unless the bugs are really bad. Indispensable when I used to go fly fishing with my dad. And you'll have to tell me what you think of the new canoe, once you've put a few miles on it, and had it in some various conditions. I was thinking about the 15' prospector, but there's a possibility I'll need to go bigger. Though it won't be for a while anyway. Nice to see you out again my friend!

Hahaha a ball cap would definitely be better under there, but the brim is floppy enough that it makes it half decent. Loving those bug shirts so far. Same with the canoe...still early, but I'm extremely happy with it at this point. Obviously I wish it was 30lbs lighter, but that's the price I chose to pay for ruggedness and durability. Really doesn't feel that bad with the yoke pads. Thanks Jim!

Same here man, it was tough to give up on it. Funny thing was knowing we could've flown the drone over to it...but that's not how I wanted to see it. It's on the Gravel River which is in my plans but it's a notorious trip so we'll have to see...

We put that trail in in 1975 the same year we did the gravel and used it regularly till 200? it's always been a little cranky for first 200 yards and if left alone you'll need at least a hour and a half to clear it down 45 minutes back up. If there's been a blowdown event on the slope goodness only knows. I think the 2 Robs will up there this summer so I'll be looking for the return trip and was really looking forward to seeing you make it. So I'm subscribed Thanks.
