@@TheFishingDoctorsAdventures always. You guys are informative and those of us that care are very thankful for your insight to the beautiful Barkley Sound. What a Gem
@american_dane thanks. Yeah it's a smaller audience for sure. Not many anglers actually have boats to fish Barkley sound, so I don't always get the most viewers with these videos.... but I just love ocean fishing and the Barkley Sound. What a wonderful place for sure.
Us Washington boys have a hard time understanding the premise. 2 things to substantiate the bc knucklebuster. #1. 1:1 ratio man vs fish . #2 use really long rods and absorb the bite from 200’. #3 you never forget the monster that busted your knuckles while putting it in the net. Keep up you and your family’s solid work @spiltmilt
Haha, and I'll never understand Americans using heavy saltwater winches for salmon. Have you used mooching reels? I've used both. I have one set up with a level wind and 4 with mooching rods. I usually leave the level wind at home. I only take it along if someone is coming who isn't very good at reeling fast. In my opinion mooching reels are much more fun with the 1 to 1 ratio you feel way more intimately attached to the fish. You are the drill and you're the gears. I'm addicted to the sound and feel of drag peeling off the reel. Palming the reel on a running chinook. Plus it works better on the downriggers for me as well. I can understand using a level wind on a kayak or if you have a weight on the line. It is also cultural as well. Just like many of you Americans drift fish a float with a spinning reel. That's just bizzare to me why the Addicted fisherman and from what I hear many PNW people do. So I suspect it's a lot of learning from your neighbor going on and humans are creatures of habit. Canadian guides service a lot of American clients and they still use Islander mooching reels... guess the American tourists don't mind.
Not meaning negativity, sorry. 1,Never chase the fish with the net. Wait till he's too tired to resist, then pull him over a stationary net. When first guy has a fish on, get the other line in asap. But please have fun 👍
@NeilCarmichael-j8j I think it's a matter of style. Sometimes we even run 4 rods stacked. Most people leaves the rods down, leave the boat in gear a bit and angle the boat to keep the fish on one side. We've caught many double Headers that way. Save time and energy just leaving the lines down. So yeah we will net hotter fish cause they tend to come to boat faster if you leave the boat in gear and I'm not willing to have them swim where ever they want and get tangled around all the gear. I enjoy getting the net infront of a fighting fish. To me it's a matter of style rather than right or wrong. As long as you're having fun and success that's the goal. I'm not here to tell anyone they're right or wrong, but that there are numerous ways to get the job done.
Everyone has their own, "right way of doing things". Most of the time it comes down to experience... might just be at a different part of the road than other anglers. That's something I'd never hang over a less experienced angler. This is a positive atmosphere hoping to encourage interest in fishing at any level of experience. You don't need to know everything to catch fish or have fun.
Good to see ya back with some Chinook Dr. Happy holidays and much love to your beautiful family 👊
Thanks, Happy holidays to you as well. Thanks for watching.

Fun day out with your old man doc. Great piece of content keep it up!
Thanks a ton! Editing more. Was looking back through the archives and have some fun stuff never edited.
Great day on the water, great to spend it with your dad!
For sure... I'm a little short with him at times... but for the most part goes pretty well.
Great video 😊
Thanks for watching!
I'll never understand why Canadians use knuckle busters.

Just nice trip. …🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! Appreciate the comment.
Hey Brandon
Hello, how are you. You better turn your heat down in alberta so the Ice is Ready When I get there later in December.
Shows how good the fishing is. You can do everything wrong and still catch fish! 🤣
