48H SOLO Backpacking & MOUNTAIN TROUT Fishing! (Catch, Cook, Camp)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 พ.ย. 2024
- I am solo backpacking for 48h, to a remote lake to go mountain Trout fishing! This catch, cook, camp adventure took me through the Washington wilderness, across creeks, through the woods, and into the Mountains to a pristine, alpine lake, FILLED with hungry Rainbow Trout, while at night, I was visited by curious salamanders. Besides a delicious Mountain Trout Catch & cook, enjoy beautiful scenery and nature.

This man is the reason as to why I went out and bought a bunch of backpacking gear for the summer. Will be my first time backpacking/mountain trout fishing. Thank you for all of the fantastic and inspirational videos Leif. Fish on bud!
Have fun and be careful!
Dude, same. These videos just give me the itch.

That’s a fact
Good dude
What did he appreciate?
Im not even a fisherman - but your videos are great. And that scenery is to die for. And i love that you advocate keeping the nature cleaner than you found it. Youve got yourself a subscriber from Sweden.
Thank you my friend! Glad to have you subscribed and greetings to Sweden from Seattle 🤙🏼
@@NWFishingSecrets where is this fckn place it's heaven on earth?
Meeeee tooooo
Your appreciation for life, nature, and freedom is absolutely inspiring. Too often do I catch myself cursing, pissed off, angry, and/or just frustrated with crap in life. I know all obstacles can't be avoided and what not but you really make it look so easy. I am going to try my best to continue to live my own life obviously but with the positivity that you emit.
Feel you bro. Stay happy. Assalamu alaikum
I'm very chronically ill, and when my episodes hit I'm bed ridden. It's been hard, but stumbling across your videos has reminded me that life isn't just the sickness. Thank you for giving me hope and also excitement for my treatment and recovery periods. One day I hope to live beautiful experiences like these. May your cast always be good, and line always be bitten. ❤❤❤ I hope you're so healthy and happy, and that ever adventure feels as good as the last.
anyone here in 2024 and loving this video??

Your energy on a solo trip feels like I’m watching myself, I love it! Glad that other people enjoy the same things that I do no matter how small they may be❤️
You said it! The feeling I got from watching this was just that kindred spirits exist. And, while I may not know him personally, the connection with his ethos and his sense of adventure is real. There are many of us who probably live life and think this way, and knowledge of that fact alone grants me/us power and strength.
Most excellent.
Bro whenever he eats something it always feels like its the best meal he has ever eaten on his reaction xD i love it
The passion, and peace this guy has is astonishing. I would love to just go one day with him and have him manifest his peace onto me.
Praise God the prince of peace ✝️✨
Wow, made my day watching this. Open my eye to see that there’s more out there than just my current situation. This is awesome.
Life gets even better man
Hello Bobbie
Everyone needs to find someone that looks at them the way Leif looks at a fish being Danish sea salted.
😂 👌🏼
@@NWFishingSecrets awsome
This guy is amazing
Class act
Nw the best
Yet another reminder that we all love the content Leif. Tight lines!
I’ve watched a lot of fishing videos before being an avid fisherman myself but your videos and attention to detail and overall positive outlook on enjoying nature has been making me want to go out more on these trips in the mountains of the south thanks for all you do man keep catching and keep exploring!
These views are like a magic adventure, those mountains, forests, the life in it feels like you are truly in a calm and adventurous place. Sadly some people dont care about it and just destroy everything not realizing that bc of them we live and without them we will just be no more
When you clicked on a video so fast that you didn’t even read the title because you know it’s gonna be good
lol true
Fr I was like um yes pls thanks recommended gods
@@Ken-i5o He really is amazing, isn't he?
Had to go back and read the title after I started it too Haha
I just saw the notification and became more happy:)
"We got granite countertops out here." Your comments always put a smile on my face
Its not granite. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granite should look like this. Unless that mountain granite is a leucogranite. Granite is usually all orange, black, and white
@Anthony Hallam im a geologist, i gotta lol.
i came here to comment the same thing lmao
I’m so sick I have long Covid and I can’t fall asleep and I can’t keep calm somehow I find peace watching your videos. That just shows how thankful I am that you exist and your channel
Eats 3 berries
"Alright that's enough berries for right now" XD
This is the personification of everything I dream about doing in life
then do it. don't wait until the best time. It will never come. Trust me
@@mrgreen6968 Some people like the idea of chasing dream and have no intention of ever grasping it.
@@mrdude88 and some people can,t
i agree.
Same
This was the most beautiful & most well produced video I’ve seen in a long time. Getting all my gear soon so hopefully I’ll be in the mountains backpacking soon living life ❤️
I bought gear too after watching TH-camrs. Good luck!!!
You're the one dude who has every content i would be looking for.
Hiking
Camping in the wild
Fishing
Cooking
I'm so happy because of you. Thank you.
NWFS has earned way more subs than it has. One of the best and most positive fishing channels on YT. Not to mention the absolutely stunning footage. Keep it going my man.
first time in this channel. all i want to say is WOW. this is the life man
34:10 damn, I'm crying in joy watching that trout fighting and able to see it because of that crystal clear water. Feels like I was there. Capturing beautiful moments in a beautiful environment... Amazing!
God bless you 😉
I get annoyed very easily these days by the sound of every people be it in real life or in online videos ….but these guy’s short chuckle sounds so pleasing …sounds so honest and real
It’s always a good day when nwfs uploads. It’s not every day that it happens
MY DAY GOT SO MUCH BETTER WHEN I SAW YOU UPLOADED. You have no idea how much your videos impact me man. Hope you’re doing well.
Who else finds themselves piking up trash a little more after watching a NWFS video? Thanks for keeping our mountains beautiful Leif 👍
What a refreshing vibrant soul you are!!! I have watched many videos of hiking and solo survivalist and there is no one out there that matches your enthusiasm, spunk and natural love of the land! Thanks for making me smile, laugh and want to get out there myself!!! Cheers
New drinking game: take a shot each time Leif says "Oh my goodness" lmao.
Love the video as always my man!
😂 🥴
Oh my goodness
Salam kenal
@@wisconative8647 your profile name is beer vision how ironic 😂
I love how you always put the fish out of its miserly as fast as possible!! You truly care about the earth and the living in it!! Well done,sir
I'm baffled by people who dislike this content, just so good. Cheers.
I disliked this comment in spite lol
I love how this man is so kind to the nature and the little things of life keep it up man
Your filming and editing skills are like top notch, props to you man
this is what i watch when i need to sleep, its so relaxing.
same
One of the most beautiful videos I’ve seen on TH-cam in a long time! I suffer from anxiety which causes me to not want to travel far distances from home or do anything really that makes me uncomfortable, but this left me feeling inspired and hopeful! Captivating man, I subscribed!
good for you, have you been getting out more recently
Go on a nature, take a deep breath and relax your mind. It helps! You will appreciate your life. Nature feeds your soul.
I totally agree with your comment and was thinking the exact same thing while watching. I subscribed too.
loving the outdoors, the gratifying expressions on your face, this is the feeling from god.
Leif, what a banger. These outdoor camp/fish vids are sick! Your enthusiasm and care for the outdoors and just being in nature, doing what you enjoy is why you’ll always be the favourite! Keep it up man! 🤘🏻 BOBBER DOWN BABY
Epic video. Thank you for sharing your enjoyment of the outdoors, fishing, cooking skills, and making discoveries. Loved the astro time-lapse, the drone shots, underwater salamander interlude, and that final cooking segment with that incredible view in the background. Greetings from Seattle Seattle!
Thank you so much for enjoying it, as well as your kind words :)
“The earthy onion” You almost hit us with the earthy undertones…I was rooting for it but you went with onion 😂. Great video as always.
This gotta be my favorite channel for outdoor/ camping and appreciate the fact that he keeps place clean.
What makes this even better is your genuine enthusiasm and passion for this while detailing and educating us. You have so much respect for the earth and fish. Keep up the quality content and cant wait for me! Subscribed!!
I can’t express how much I need your videos. They have gotten me through so much. They are extremely beautiful to watch. Your videos have inspired me to get fishing and it has become my therapy. I love each and every video you put out and I can’t believe how much work you put into them. Alpine lakes, backpacking videos as well as van trips to creeks and lakes are amazing to watch! Keep these up! As always I literally can’t wait for the next one.
Your enthusiasm and passion is infectious and comes through in every word you say. It’s people like you that motivates and inspires people to get out doors. Great job, my friend
Dude, you are adorable. From listening to the birds sing to each out and kissing the trout you caught after thanking it.
This is what life really is! Enjoying life and nature at the same time! ❤️

@@magnagermania9311 he mentioned pacific northwest i think
I’m so glad I found your channel. Amazing video.
So happy I came across this video. Your appreciation for nature is so warming and genuine. This was an excellent reminder of the little things throughout my day that I’m so quick to take for granted. Thank you truly.

This makes me wish I never moved away from the Seattle area. I really miss the close friends I made, hiking, and the mountains and their distinct air. All your videos bring smiles to my face even though I don't fish. I do work in a fish department though lol.
That’s scenery is right out of a Bob Ross painting.
Loved your energy, the way you look at the nature, they way you cooked the trout. Made me wish to walk those alpine lakes, creeks. Always stay like this. Love from India.
Bhai bhai
go smaller on the fly. "match the hatch" trout have amazing eyes and can see a scud 10yrds out. they tend to turn away from bigger presentations.
I really love this guy full of energy n excitement😍❤️
You faced every bad situation with smile, joy and PMA. What A Man. I envy
This was perhaps the most entertaining and well made episode you’ve done yet brother. I would watch this sort of content all day
You definitely should do a lot of stuff like this during the summer
watching this was so calming and beautiful
Ok Chan pink
@@medicineman6093 yh
Im here at 2am watching this. Seen this feels like Im there, and os soo relaxing. Maybe this is what I need to stop stressing with life!
I can truely understand that feeling cause i feel the same way too, damn gotta love life.
Your shots of the rough skinned newts (Taricha Granulosa) is gorgeous 💜 we actually had one we kept as a pet because he was injured by our hook during a fishing trip, and he just passed away last week. Seeing this reminded me what amazing and beautiful creatures they are. So lovely that you included that.
Glad I saw the comment :) they are amazing creatures and I was pretty stoked to film them in the wild. Glad you had the chance to help an injured one out 🤙🏼
Hello Elizabeth
I get baked and watch the whole thing right before bedtime
Broo same here. It trippy
I just love all of his videos because he makes it feel like we are with him
For food, for life, for raiment, for opportunity we thank thee o lord!
The time lapse of the night sky was worth the cost of admission. Thanks for taking us along on your mountain trip.
This is such an amazing site to find and your presentation is incredible! Thank you for taking us with you! I was a survival instructor for 30 years in the Pacific Northwest and this is not just one of the best, but the best sites I have ever seen!! I’ll be following this from now on!
I went “awwww” when he saw baby dragonfly larvae and said they’ll be beautiful baits 😩😩
20:27-21:37
I love that whole interaction
“Ooooo..he didn’t like that”
Such a great video Lief , keep it up
Such a great video. The nightime Salamander sequence under the stars was fabulous. Get this guy on mainstream TV. Its so positive.
This is one of the best videos in YT
love how excited he is after catching those fishes and how he enjoys nature ✨
This continues to be the best video footage I have ever seen on TH-cam, I know you prob work harder than 98% of all you tubers out there. Sad you don’t have 1M subs yet, but keep going amazing stuff and it wouldn’t be the last thing I expect if you get there by the end of the year!
Salam kenal
Ahhhh yes yes exactly the content I was looking for! The classic forest adventures!
You can’t throw a streamer like that right on the water in front of a trout. If it’s a dry fly or a hopper it might be interested but streamers imitate baitfish and crayfish so something that size hitting the top of the water is just gonna spook it. If you cast past it and strip it in front it may have taken it but you need to be careful about the floating line as well.
I started doing high land lake camping and oh my its amazing Washington has so much nature love the content keep it up
Me: just chillin watching nwfs
My dad: what the hell?!? You’re supposed to be studying for your exam!
Love your vids man
Fish on babyyyyy 🎣👌💙
is summer theres no school, only summer school but im pretty sure they havent done any exams
@@otxbrandon4620 nope I’m still in school we have different schools not the same one
Yea Washington schools are stupid.
A tip and an observation: keep the shorter, more plump trout for cooking. They are fatter and more flavorful because they have yet to spawn. The longer thinner fish are not nearly as well flavored. The observation: your enthusiasm is the key to your video. If I did this , it would be sort of ho-hum, but a lot of info. I think people like the scenery and your joy more. Cheers!
This is the first video I watched by this channel. I highly enjoyed it as it brought back memories to me of my younger days hiking and camping in NW & SW Montana's high mountain lakes. I was very impressed not to hear even one curse word. All positive, beautiful scenic footage. I subscribed and will be watching more of your vids.
"Come on where do you see these kind of stuff?"
"Oh, i've got the answer for you"
"In the mountains"
"Hehehe"
😂
You make the most beautiful fishing videos I’ve seen. It’s amazing to watch the footage you capture in my very own state, it makes me want to get out and try to have experiences like the ones you document. I’ve been a sub for over a year now, and I can’t wait to see what you do next!
He really does such an awesome job with these videos! You can really tell how much he appreciates being out there and the respect he has for nature.
@@KFBR392 exactly. It’s so refreshing to see his content whenever it crosses my homepage. He’s a one of a kind TH-camr.
i cant remember the name of this lake but seeing it my dad took me here when i was younger. They called it Salamander Lake. went up with my uncles, They all caught nice Trout but all i caught were a few salamanders somehow. Its a Core Childhood memory to look back on. Happy to see it again on Video!
24:10
Turn your phone upside down. It's so mesmerizing
😮
This guy is by far just the most wholesome fishing/nature youtuber I've ever seen. Production quality is an added bonus but I'd watch this guy regardless. Love the the content man!
Tip for fly fishing, instead of putting the fly on the hook keeper and having to get the leader knot out of the eyelet each time, go around the knob on the reel with your Line and then put the fly on whatever eyelet allows the leader knot to be outside the last eyelet.
Nice tip! Noted
Why do I always wave and smile back when you do, while launching your drone? Your positive demeanor is contagious, and I thank you!
He reminds me always a game called 'The Trail' hiking game over the beautiful mountain and forest.
Living the dream 💭 wow that was beautiful.
Beautiful scenery and nice camera work. My only suggestion is that when you're drinking your last bit of water at a water source like you were, NEVER pass it by with an empty canteen, expecting to get to that next water source. If you roll an ankle or break a leg, that's a bad situation to be in. That being said, great video!
First Time Here.....Enjoyed Watching It Full😃😍
Such a dream to be doing what you’re doing man keep it up. I’m sure you’ve inspired people to get into this hobby
Where do you get one of those water filters ?
YES, FINALLY, I CANT WAIT TO WATCH THIS, LET ME GET MY POP CORN FIRST!!!!
bigfoot getting all pissed off at you
"LIMITS ONE BUDDY!!"
😂
What a wholesome man, I got such a realisation of life and how the simple things can bring so much joy watching this video
Some duck eggs that I’ve been incubating just hatched and when they get old enough we’re going to release them into the wild but they are wild ducks and the mother abandon the nest
Good on you ❤️ all the best! I've done the same in the past with abandoned baby birds
Me too, also with robin young when the roosting parent got taken out by a cooper's hawk.
@@NWFishingSecrets Most beautiful video I’ve ever seen
@@NWFishingSecrets that sunset was pretty good but the ones along the Pacific coast are some of the most beautiful in the world. Along with the mountains
find me someone who looks at me the way he looks at the fish while pouring the sea salt in
Lol
Bro I swear this guy would look at dirt and just say: "Oh wow, look at that Fan-tas-tic pile of dirt right there, my god. amazing."
So positive it’s infectious, could do with a lot more people like him!
It’s my first time watching him. I’m already in love 😫
Best creator on TH-cam. Hands down
You can reuse that corn
Lmao
