Ahhh
I watched this video in December of 2020 and it suddenly popped up in my head on the drive home today. I really enjoyed watching it again. I’m four years late on this, but congratulations!
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching 👍
Nicely done, great presentation, thank you.
Thanks 🙏
My goodness, the entire nests are literally unguarded. Any predator would have an easy buffet there!
This is a hunter's paradise ‼️ Interestingly, chickens are left unprotected on the ground like big juicy packages of delicious protein ‼️
NICE DEER! GREAT HUNT! THANK THE LORD!
Thank you!
drum fight so fking hard its crazy. drum>bass sport fishing for sure
Absolutely
Thanks guys. I catch mostly drum or sheepshead in the Miss River here in sw Wis. Will try this. 70yo beginner at filleting, and ive been fishing since a little boy!!
Good luck out there 👍🏻
What time of the year is that
I just randomly found this video and am stoked that its in MB. I stop at Fairford every time I go up hwy 6 and all I ever catch there is drum
Haha, maybe I’ll see you at the river sometime
Pike get such a bad rep for a keeper fish cuz of the Ybone and the slime. I do the same thing but am out of practice hence why I'm here, way better than 5 fillet method, So much waste doing it that way. Only thing I do with my fish is I bleed them from a stringer and I've always noticed the meat is so much whiter and tender. And it makes cleaning so much less messy.
Yep, pike are massively underrated! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! Nice TH-cam handle btw 🤣
Why dont you bleed the pike?
I usually do
The big ones are fine to eat. These are thin fish. The little ones are not any more flavorful or tender. If you don't like eating drum, no worries. It is one of my favorites.
I find the smaller ones to be firmer and a bit less oily, but that’s just a matter of my opinion I guess🤷♂️
Great sled video.
Thanks!!
That is a pretty expensive bait. At least in Canada
lol, it is but also very effective 🤷♂️🤣
Why would you go and stress and disturb all these chicks like this??? Obviously you are not professionals.
Yes we “obviously aren’t professionals”, we visited it once 6 years ago out of curiosity and haven’t been back since.
Keeping suckers releasing trout? Hmmm first time seeing that
lol, first time for everything 😜
I can tell he doesn’t cut the gill artery and bleed it out.
We usually bleed the fish but it wasn’t done for whatever reason this time.
Drum are great. Easy to catch, tastes good. I cook them in a seafood boil and it's bomb.
Yes they are! I’ll have to try them prepared that way sometime 🤔
Seems like slow cooking or pressure cooking would solve a lot of the texture issues people have with eating this fish.
how their parents remember which one is theirs?
Good question haha
Someone brush hogged that cut?
Yessir
Love the videos your doing good
Thanks!
Even with Orange. Vest on he was Colored. Blind
Yep, mistakes do happen though unfortunately
Had that happen to
Sorry to hear that, definitely not a fun experience!
Two days ago, last day of season, got on two jakes with hens. Tried to call but they would only come so close then go back. Tried a decoy, they came closer but still went back to the hens. Noticed a guy set up about 300 yards down the field set up a blind right out in the middle. I thought that ain’t gonna help me or him. I kept trying these jakes but nothing worked and I noticed this guy was just watching me the whole time with binoculars. I finally decided to make a move on them and when I did he came out of his blind and pointed his gun at me and f’ing fired. Turkey’s ran off. I hid behind the hill because wtf. When I looked to see if he was coming for me he was packing his blind up and ran the f out of there. I called the police and dnr but he already flew out of there, I had no good description of him or whatever vehicle he was taking. So he got away. Now I’m going to be reluctant to go back out to that public spot and I will always be looking over my shoulder. That guy is asking for serious trouble.
Oh wow, that’s horrible! I’m glad you are ok though!
Is it true that some pelicans will steal surrounding newly hatched chicks to their chicks?
I’m not aware of this happening but I’m sure it is possible 🤷♂️
This dude sounds more like Bert than Bert does.
Lmao 🤣
What is a Mud Minnow? Could you write it in your own language?
It’s literally called a Mudminnow 🤷♂️
Glad we got to check it OOt.
Yeah bud 👍🏻
That's pretty neat. Like a permanent ice shanty but WAY lighter and more portable!
Yes exactly, I’m hoping to build a permanent shack for next winter as well
Been a hot minute since your last upload! Glad to see you’re alive! Sweet setup dude!
Thanks bud!
Cool setup :)
Thanks!
But is it strong enough to keep a wild chilibeck in line 😅. Cheers. Tight lines!
Lmao, no promises there🤣
bro where have you been
I’ve been fishing 😜
Those pelicans migrated here in Batavia Illinois what a wonderful site
Very cool
lol @ 6:39 "If you like firm white meat almost like a Chicken breast" fish in the background comes up out of the water like "I like Chicken Breast!"
Lmao 🤣
why are you using a net on ice?
The net allows us to keep the fish in the water and healthy while we get ready for pics.
Excellent video ! Try grinding the Y bones in a food processor,add seasoning,make patties,flour them and then fry them.. you won’t ever throw them out again, trust me ,they are excellent !
Thank you, yes I’ve actually thought about doing that or even saving the strips and canning them.
How deep were you guys fishing for those lakers?
I believe that was around 35 feet if I remember correctly
Cool no idea you can dead stick those for trout, jigging for sure though. You guys eat sucker😂, I hope you smoke it. I’d be eating trout…. Never caught a sucker through the ice.
It’s actually a very effective method. Lol and yes smoked sucker is surprisingly good!
How many ice fishermen are going to lose an eye leaning over their jawjackers like that….crazy
Probably quite a few lol
And then the babies and the whole colony was abandoned as they were disturbed🥰
You are absolutely incorrect! They were literally going back to their babies as we left.
@@darrensnorthernlife1184 if they feel unsafe and are disturbed again and again they WILL abandon the island
@@zyxiw well obviously, we went there once and filmed this footage, we haven’t returned since.
Retard
The slot size or size limit is not general to all of Ontario. Eg. in Zone 16 there is no size limit on Pike. Zone 5 on the other hand does have a size limit.
Noice 👍🏻
😄😄😄😄😮😮😮😮
😀
I am going on a trip with the same gun in about 2 weeks and am hoping to get my first deer
Best of luck to you 👍🏻
