  • We took a trip to the adirondacks for the last 10 days of the trout fishing season, another unforgettable trip. The weather was great, foliage was at peak colors, the fishing was a little bit slow, but I managed to net a beautiful brook trout that matched my personal best. I hope you follow along on our journey, and if you enjoyed it, hit the like button and subscribe to see more of our adventures.

    A man in the woods with a good woman and a good dog. It doesn't get any better than that !! Great job editing. The perfect mix of narration, music and the awesome sounds of nature.

    10 days in the wilderness of the Adirondacks ! Wow, y'all are some hearty folks, you 3 make a great team! That 18" fish was a Brook Trout?!!! I didn't know they got that big! Awesome! The colors were popping on this trip. I noticed your boat is a Prospector 16', I don't believe Nova Craft is currently making that model. It sure seems to be serving you guys well! Also, cool idea to bring the Dolly, especially for a 3 mile carry!!! thx again for sharing your well made videos!

      Thanks for watching and stopping by to comment, very much appreciated! Some brook trout get pretty big, I've gotten lucky enough to catch a few in this size range. Hoping to beat my record this year, which is 18". This canoe was our first, and we've had plenty of memorable trips with it, but we want to get something different this year. The boat can haul a lot of gear, but is terrible for fishing. It doesn't take much of a breeze to make it hard to troll with. And the outer gelcoat I've spent more time repairing than time out on the water. The dolly was a lifesaver for that 3 mile portage, I did not want to double carry our gear. Thanks again! Glad you enjoyed the video

    Such a beautiful place, so jealous. Lived just south of the Adirondacks when younger and hate myself for not exploring north. Now live in Tucson AZ. Your video makes me live my dream. Thanks

    Beautiful country,I live in Minnesota,been up to our Boundry Waters Canoe Area a few times,you all bring me back,l can smell the air.Btw,l am curious,how do you keep your meat fresh for those days,thanks for the video.

    • @AlansOutdoorAdventures
      @AlansOutdoorAdventures  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for watching and stopping by to comment, very much appreciated! I freeze all of the meat, and use a bunch of freeze packs to throw in a cooler. It usually stays cold 4 days or so depending on how warm it is outside. It does add a bunch of weight to our gear, but its nice to have a good meal at camp.

    Good stuff Alan. I canoe camped the same waters late fall.... during Tamarack season.. which was probably a week or two after your trip. Such an amazing area. Have a great 2023.

    Great video; I recognized some of the camps. I was up there mid-October last year. As I grow older, I end up camped on Floodwood Road quite a bit. I love the fall colors, and usually make it up there in late September through October. Nice 18 inch fish!!! If I see that yellow NovaCraft I will give you a shout next year.

And if you run into us, definitely say hello; we love meeting friendly people that enjoy being out there just like we do. Thank you for watching and stopping by to comment, very much appreciated!

    Brook trout fishing in the fall can be very very very slow. How well I know.

    • @AlansOutdoorAdventures
      @AlansOutdoorAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว

      It definitely can be slow, that's why I was so happy to catch that big one. Great to be out there either way, nowhere I'd rather be. Thanks for watching, very much appreciated!

    Two quick questions: 1) how do you register to camp remotely in the Adirondacks?, and 2) what maps do you recommend for navigation? Thanks!

    • @AlansOutdoorAdventures
      @AlansOutdoorAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You just have to sign in at the trailhead register of the area you're planning on staying, usually at the parking lot or a little bit into the trail. There are yellow "camp here" disc's at the designated campsites, or if you are disperse camping you have to be 150ft from the trail, or any body of water. As far as maps, the Adirondack paddlers map is great, it shows all portage trails, campsites, etc. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask, and thank you for watching- very much appreciated! Happy and safe travels!

      @@AlansOutdoorAdventures So there is no reservation fee?!? Is this true for St. Regis as well as the Raquette River?

    • @AlansOutdoorAdventures
      @AlansOutdoorAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว

      @@NikonF5user this is true, the campsites are all free and go by a first come, first serve basis. Usually you can tell how easy or hard it will be to find a site based on how full the parking lot is. I try to go during the week when it's not quite as busy, some places get pretty packed during the weekend but aren't too bad during the week. The raquette river has quite a few tent campsites and lean-to sites as well. St. Regis Canoe Area is great, definitely one of our favorite destinations. There are a bunch of different places to launch from and so many different routes to take based on the amount of time you have to spend there.
