Algonquin Park September Canoe Trip- dutch oven baking, trout fishing & fall colours!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ต.ค. 2020
- Join us for a wonderful fall canoe trip in Algonquin Park! We portaged many kilometers into an unmaintained lake in Algonquin and camped under a tarp for 2 nights. On this canoe trip we baked cinnamon buns and lasagna in a dutch oven for the first time! It was also my last chance for backcountry lake trout fishing this year and I managed to catch a couple. To top it off, there was lots of fall colour and changing leaves to enjoy.

Great video - love the Dutch oven
Hey, thanks for watching my video! We really loved using the Dutch oven too. Just starting to get the hang of it. Any recipes you recommend trying for next time?
I know the feeling of fishing for hours and getting that fish!!! What a nice fish too! We’re going this fall and this gives me hope.
The nights are getting colder and the lakes are cooling down. Perfect for some fall trout fishing. I'm hoping to get out too. Thanks for watching!
Fun video. I like the Dutch oven cooking.
Hey Alan, it's fun cooking with the Dutch oven and it opens up many more culinary options while on trip. Not much fun on the portage though! Thanks for the support and comments!
Those makeshift tongs are so cool
They worked really well and so easy to make. Thanks for watching!
just discovered you guys, sooo much what I wanna experience camping. right on.
Great to hear, welcome to the channel! I love backcountry camping and I enjoy sharing my experiences/knowledge. Thanks for checking out the video!
I couldn't tell. Was that first Laker very dark or not? Haha.
New to the channel. Loving the vids! Helping cure the itch till I can get out and start doing my own adventures!
Welcome to the channel! Canoe season is just around the corner and I can't wait to get out too. I'm happy my videos are filling the void.
Cool video! just subscribed to your channel! Thanks for sharing your adventures! looking forward to your next one!

Welcome to the channel, I'm happy you found us. Thanks for watching!
Hey man! love your videos. We're going to Burnt Island Lake in August and wondering if you have any lake trout tips for newbies.
Hey Dev, the lake trout will be very deep in August so your biggest challenge will be getting your lure deep enough and in the strike zone. Burnt Island is a beautiful lake full of decent sized lake trout. I've never been skunked on that lake. Good luck and thanks for following the channel!
Thanks for the cooking show! And the beautiful healthy Lakers!
I tend to eat much better when Paige is on trip with me 😄 Thanks for the comment!
What wonderful food! I always want to go quick and light when camping but there is something to be said for eating well and your video made me think about cooking differently on future adventures. :) Awesome trip, thanks for sharing. :)
I often like to pack light too and cover as much distance as possible but sometimes it's nice to slow down a bit. I also have a reflector oven which is a little bit lighter than the dutch oven but still allows you to bake food on a camping trip. Just because you're camping doesn't mean you can't eat well. Thanks for watching!
Nice work on the Dutch oven meals! We love using it as well. Ironically, the next series I'm currently editing is all about meals with the Dutch and reflector ovens.
Thanks! What a coincidence, I'll definitely check out those vids. Thanks for watching!
You make excellent videos. Thank you
Glad you like them. Thanks for watching!!
Cinnamon buns were so tempting. Looks like a nice trip.
It was the first canoe trip Paige and I went on together this season. We had a great time. The cinnamon buns were tasty, next time I want to bring some icing to top them off. Thanks for watching!
No wonder you two love canoe tripping, you eat better on the trail than most people do at home! Lisa and I enjoyed watching this video around the kitchen island. Lisa congratulates you on the nice ethical move of crimping your fish hook barbs. Beautiful lake, it is nice there are more remote lakes like that in the Park that don't see a lot of traffic. Keep filming and adventuring!
I see you have your own account now Ian, that's cool. I don't keep all the trout I catch so it made sense that I start pinching the barbs for conservation purposes. There are lots of hidden gems in Algonquin and every year I seem to discover a few new ones. I have just learned that many kilometers of portaging and paddling are required to access these lakes. Thanks for watching!
@@AleconAdventures Not always so many kms Alec . But you have to know where .
PS how about using single hooks as well.
You two eat better camping than I do at home and you still got your trout too! Well done.
I tend to eat better on trip when Paige is around. On solo trips I like to keep meal plans simple and easy. The trout seemed to be shut off until the last day when I caught those two. Thanks for watching!
I just found your channel this week Alec I really love your videos! I have been to Algonquin a few times, your videos remind me of good times! Keep it up in 2021
Hey Hayden, welcome to the channel. I have many fond memories of Algonquin trips as well and I'm happy to share some of those experiences. Thanks for watching!
wow that lasagna looked great / delicious
It was delicious and there was tons of it. Thanks for watching!
Well done.. Cheers..
Thank you! Cheers!
What do you do for work that you were late for the following day? Dying to know now after this story
I work in the outdoor adventure industry and I am also a canoe guide
You are both truly living your best lives. Great content as always Alec. We def have to make that trip our spring trip. The fishing in there is so much better in the spring. It's worth the effort getting in there and that rock wall, well video doesn't do it justice. A bigger wheeled cart is way easier on that grown in trail. Cheers to you both!
A spring trip sounds like a great idea. I wouldn't mind catching some brookies out of there too. I definitely will use a bigger wheeled cart next time. Thanks for watching!
Great Stuff, I love seeing what others attempt cooking wise on trips. For our trips we love pizzas, berry crumbles, panino and what we call baconators... you likely can figure it out from there. Love the style of your videos Alec, good man.
will keep watching.

I like to see what other people cook on trips as well. We get stuck in our same old menu plan sometimes. Baconators! I'm definitely gonna have to give that one a try. Really glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for stopping by!
@@AleconAdventures Alec, have you done any loops in the Temagami region? Baconators not exactly meet the Canadian Food guide for nutrition but man they are good.
Yeah a couple years ago I did a loop in Temagami, it included a section of the Sturgeon River. I love bacon in the winter, all that fat is just what I need.
Great video guys. Looks like you really ate well!
Glad you enjoyed it and we sure did. Thanks for watching!
Awesome video. Loved it.
Hey, can you please share what equipments did you use to shoot this video? Specially while canoeing.
Thanks :)
Sony a6400, sigma prime lenses and a tripod. I strap the tripod in while canoeing. Thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot :)
Good on you guys for the fire wood you left.
It's part of good backcountry etiquette which is not so common in Algonquin unfortunately. Thanks for watching!
Nice video, other than the most detail food spreading sounds hahaha
Those were some saucy sounds😋. Thanks for watching!
I don't know when you were camping but maybe you were not having much luck fishing is because lake trout spawn in the fall and the season in Zone 15 (algonquin) for lake trout is January 1st to September 30th. They are harder to catch once they start thinking about spawning.
If I remember correctly we were out on that trip around mid September. You might well be right. Thanks for watching!
What time of year was this?
Mid-end of September
Hey alec. Love your content and awesome videos for algonquin. Any suggestions for how many colors of lead core to set up on a trolling rod. I wants to set up one rod for trolling for a spring trip, no sure how many colors to throw on it. Thanks for any info you csn share
Hey Tyler! Well you don't need a leadcore rod for spring fishing. The water is still cold and the trout are close to the surface. The leadcore takes alot of the fight out especially with smaller fish so I only use it in the summer when the fish are very deep. In the spring I use my spinning rod and will add split shot if necessary to get my lure down a little deeper. Thanks for watching!
While eating lasagna, there was really good ambient lighting. What source of lighting did you use?
I believe we were using a small led light from Mountain Warehouse that uses 3 AAAs. It's a decent light better than the similar Black Diamond one I have. Thanks for watching!
I know that lake...😉
It was my first time there but it won't be my last. Thanks for watching!
@@AleconAdventures Didn't seem to be such great fishing .
What was your route?
I can't give away the exact location but I will tell you that we were on the east side of the park in an unmaintained area. Thanks for watching!
@@AleconAdventures mentioning the cart trail at the end of the video is a fairly major clue, and I recognize the cliffs....but okay, I'll keep quiet. :P
nice fish!
😉 It's so much better for people to discover beautiful lakes for themselves.👍 Thanks for watching!
Nice Video! Don't know what lake you were on, I have fished Shirley Lake, Ryan Lake (Rainbow Trout), Crotch Lake and Grand Lake in Algonquin. My wife has family in the Eganville area. Bet that Dutch adds some weight to your pack! We Dutch Oven cook as well and it is great to show people no matter what kind of camping you do you can cook anything! Check out Dome Life You-Tube Channel. Also great cooking while camping. They are Overlanders (Jeep People).
I've paddled through Shirley and Ryan on my way up McKaskill Lake to paddle the Bonnechere River. The Dutch Oven does add some weight, probably best for river trips but it was nice to have on this basecamp style trip. I'll have to check out that youtube channel. Thanks for the recommendation and for watching!
