There were MILLIONS OF FISH - Dipnet Fishing Catch & Cook!!!
Спорт
Millions of fish were swimming upstream so we did a dip net fishing catch & cook! First time smelt fishing, so I had to do a Smelt catch clean cook. The Smelt are currently on their spawning journey from the ocean into the rivers where they will mate and secure the next generation. Smelt (Eulachon) were endangered through overfishing, but their numbers have recovered to where we can go dipnetting for smelt one day a year.

Always a good day when you upload! Smelt are way fun to catch, use to catch them in Maine as a kid. We would go to streams running off lakes in the spring at night with flashlights and catch them with nets. Good memories!
How do people dislike this? His excitement is contagious
Been dip netting with my dad and older brother during the smelt run and it was awesome. Even finished the day with sturgeon fishing. It’s awesome to see you doing what I used to do with my family.

I've introduced you to my dad, he's 78, but so very experienced in sea/lake/river fishing throughout the UK, parts of Asia, some parts of America, and Australia and New Zealand where we live now. He also lived in Germany for 3 years during his service. Anyway, he likes what you do, from what I could send to him to watch. Once I go down after Christmas, I'll show him how to connect to your vids. He'll love it. Thanks Leif x
I jut discovered this channel...I really enjoy watching it. I grew up in Oregon and as a teenager I would hike up in the mountains to the high lakes to camp and fish for a few days. This show revives good memories.
I was hoping you would drop a video tonight LOL💯 thanks man I have something to watch to go to bed nothing is more relaxing
Been waiting for this drop 💯
I am from Camano Island Wa. and I have fond memories of smelt raking with my Dad, grandfather and cousins while growing up. All of us had a WONDERFUL time! I also remember my grandmother and my sister cleaning the smelt using kitchen scissors, they make the cleaning quick and easy work! Looks like you had a great time! Thank you for sharing!!!
Happy to see you posting, Leif! It has been a while since your last vid! Thanks to your videos I've been inspired to begin putting together a little backpacking/fishing trip here in Washington this summer! Fish on, baby!
man our smelt are like 5-6" long and pencil thin when they run at our lake

Not gonna lie, after watching your videos i couldnt stop! I introduced your channel to my friends and now were planning for a survival trip to Norway, I even starting fishing in my sparetime. - Keep up the great work! Best greetings from Denmark!
Awesome video! Back in the day, like the 80's and 90's, me, my bro and my pops would go up all the time. We would get like two or three bucket fulls. We would always go after sunset since the fish were more inclined to hug the shore. It was always two to three dips per bucket. They were always great smoked, deep fried and of course as bait for sturgeon. However, we all know that all good things eventually come to an end. We got older, my pops did as well, the run sizes crashed and the fishery went away. I am glad to see a return of these great fish. Hopefully one day we will see a return of a great sturgeon fishery as well. Take care and thanks for sharing. You do it right and the way you treat the resource is commendable. Thank you!

The most high quality fishing videos on youtube right here. I don't know another youtuber that puts this much time and effort into fishing/catch and cook videos.
(I'd say it about time for a new video.) Glad to see ya back bro. Bought extra gear. Getting a canoe. Going full time by June. I've been homeless for 8 years on my land might as well be doing this. Thx again bro. Helped me get off my ass.
Wish I would have known you were coming to Castle Rock, would have loved to meet you. Love your videos.
Congratulations on buying the property! I’m glad you have a new place to explore and share with us that you can call your own!

Thank you Mansour! I appreciate your concern 👍 I wear a mask when it's required, but not outside or when I'm with family or friends.

Literally you changed the game with the cheesy tortillas . I can’t get enough of them . Did a couple trout catch and cooks so far this year inspired by you. Thanks for the tips!
