I don’t think anyone else does this with passion like this guy. Leif is really living the life. I enjoy the hardworking video 100% all the time! Appreciate you
You're such an inspiration for me to get out and adventure more and do more fishing! Your channel actually got me into fishing and adventuring if I'm being honest. Keep up the good work!
After a long hard day of having to deal with the noisy world, I greatly appreciate your videos Leif. I always feel like you're not just talking to us, but inviting us to be a part of your quiet fun filled day. The way your phrase things like "we need to get OUR poles" just makes me feel like I'm right there with you. Not being able to get out as much as I used to, it brings a whole new sense of wonder and amazement to my life. From the bottom of my heart Leif, thank you.
Thank you soooooo much Leif!!!!!!!!!! You made my Monday sooo much better! I hope some day we could meet up and do a mountain adventure together! Fish on baby!! 🎣🎣
@@NWFishingSecrets I’ll try to see you there! Live in the plains of Kansas soooo…. 😄. Can you maybe do a high alpine lake fishing adventure or a gear review? I’m trying to become a high alpine lake backpacker/fisherman!!
Thanks for enjoying! And wow, several people asked in the comments just now. I'm actually picking up a custom trailer for it tomorrow! (been waiting 2 years for it) So boat adventures are coming in the very near future!!
YES Leif. I get so excited for your videos on every release. The farm updates, the adventure and your awesome vibe just helps me disconnect for a while and enjoy myself. Wishing you a good day from Ontario 🇨🇦 🤙🏻
I just found your channel about 2 months ago... my husband and I have been binge watching since then and really have enjoyed watching you grow over the last few years.. love your new farm! We are in our 50's and have just, in the last few years, started to become addicted to fishing and you've inspired us to be more nature conscious (taking garbage out when we find it, learning about mushrooms, wetting hands before touching fish, just to name a few things). We have a challenge for you! 48 hour - $20 "dollar store" challenge catch and cook! Get limit of 20 (dollar) items in 20 minutes and no other supplies. No poles, tents, things from home.. just 20 things from the dollar store (tax doesn't count) and make your shelter, fire, cooking tools.. water, bedding, lures (no bullet lure this time) etc.. forage, catch and cook!
You are the most positive person I’ve ever seen that has the ability to make every situation appear so exciting. You remind me of my half German half Chinese friend. Great content.
My son (5 years) loves your channel. He wants to fish every day and says things like “bobber down” and “fish on baby”. Tonight we are enjoying a meal of fresh pickerel and whitefish caught by the little guy! Keep doing what you are doing.
That’s amazing!! 😂 love hearing it. And that sounds delicious! I’ve never had pickerel before but can’t wait to try. Say hi to your son! Fish on babyy!!!
Something about your energy with animals speaks loud. The way you can handle the bees and all other animals I have seen without fear and not getting attacked is kind of amazing. I would have been stung haha😂
Hey Leif I love your mountain lake videos. They are so interesting and relaxing. Ive watched them all several times. I find it very hard to sleep at night due to pain. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your channel. Thank you sincerely 👍🙂
Hey brother, I figured I just needed to tell you... There has been a lot of good fishing videos that I've come across and channels on TH-cam that put them up, that eventually just end up talking about things that I disagree with or just being lame. But your channel has been consistently my very favorite fishing channel on TH-cam for quite a while now and I really appreciate that. Thank you so much for always sharing your awesome life. Cheers!
I am firm believer that energy doesn’t lie and you my good sir are the embodiment of your name!!! Your remind me that there still is good in this world and to always put out that energy , thank you!!! Means so much to me!!! Plus can’t get enough of your content 💙💙💙
My whole family watches your channel... usually at dinner time. Gets us all amped up and ready to hit up a mountain lake or stream when the weekend comes. My 6 year old son Ash (turning 7 on August 11) is a HUGE fan. Ive always taken him into the woods, camping, fishing, hiking... but you have really lit a fire in him and i thank you. He would love to meet you some day! He wants me to comment to you his favorite video was a squid catch n cook in Seattle. He LOVES calamri. Lol... anyway... thanks again. Love your stuff. Fish on!
Love how the compound is growing! Lake - as a name for one of the three other goats might be suitable? They are the cutest 😍 I love watching your videos thank you!! ❤❤
We missed your content. It’s been awhile checking your new video for a week and finally you are there. Man! We love your video and want to see one every week. Thank you for the show
Finally made upto our cabin in ID. got the fly rod earlier this past Winter, have been practicing, and am looking forward to using it on some of the creeks in the area. Good to see you again Leif, and thank you for sharing another awesome video. The Mountain farm is taking shape very well. Take care, thank you again.
Spinnerbaits are wonderful for avoiding reeds and debris in the water since the lure always stays upright along with its single hook, you can usually fish them straight through the reeds. Hope you can try one out someday in conditions like this. 😊
They are v shaped with a skirt that flutters, and a spinner that flutters as well. The V is always upright with the hook in the center of the v. Allowing for tight manuevers.
My family watches 100% of your videos, and on repeat. My 3 year old daughter asks to watch you as soon as she’s home from school. I love how much you’ve taught her too! We do a lot of overlanding and outdoor activities. She collects moss and sap to stay fires because you daughter her than. Colbie suggests Peach as a goat name ❤
Such a beautiful area. From down South all the way to Canada so many lakes. Fun to watch you explore it. Thanks for the great episode. Good to see the farm growing. Tell us what your plans with the goats are some time. Cheers
I was just informed today on August 6th that my great grandfather has passed away from what we believe to be a heart attack on August 1st… I’m not one to ever comment on someones video, although I have been a viewer of your channel for a fair amount of time now & I really enjoy watching your content, with that being said I really enjoyed today’s video. It helped put a smile on my face & I thank you for that!.. I also apologize for the late comment! Happy fishing!! 🎣
Stopping the car setting up the camera recording the car go by come back retrieve the camera, now imagine doing that multiple times. The lengths these types of content creators go to is amazing And the footage that comes out of all this stop, setup, drive, stop, retrieve is gorgeous Well done lief your a legend mate
Another fantastic vid, mate. Brings joy to my day whenever you upload. When I look at the mother goat, the names 'Kali' and 'Frida' jump to the top of my mind.
Pan- Greek god of goats Satyr- half man Half goat Bumper- if one of them bumps into things like a head but or something Love the vids, be subscribed for a while, really awesome to see you channel grow, keep it up, you’ve done awesome and couldn’t be happier for you
bobber and bullet are my favorite names so far! thanks for another great video. cant wait to see your farm grow and of course the catch and cooks i also look forward to
I just wanted to tell you this: "That I do not like you being lonely at the farm makes me sad + If this channel is focused on Fishing adventures then why are we moving towards farming"
Glad to see the family's getting all settled in Leif! Always love your adventures. The bees made me think you need to add some bee hives to the homestead!
My sister has a farm in Colorado . She has goats too . She had a video of the goats playing their fav game '. They come in the house they jump up on the coffee table , they jump off the coffee table , they jump up and back off again hahaha . I am not sure if that video is still up but , she does have other goat vids and some are funny . She is Karen Marie Garcia if you wanna look at her farm and the goats . Have fun : * )
With your roll cast, make sure you form the shape of a D with your fly line and fly rod. That D shape should be behind you before you make your cast and the contact patch, where the fly line touches the water MUST be in front of you. When you make your forward cast, think of it as a railway line. You have your fly line on the water in front of you (right side tracks), make your cast parallel with that line and as the line rolls out, it makes the left hand tracks. This would be reverse if someone is left handed of course. Was thinking just yesterday it's been a while since I've watched some NWFS and here you're!
For your fly rod rig, you can add a small split shot to the line when you have flies that don't sink easily. You can also use bobbers/indicators on fly lines as well. Another idea- look at the fly shop for a pattern that looks like dragonfly larva, then you don't have to keep looking for one !! :) :)
Something my father taught me about being able to feel the bight and set the hook the fastest when fly fishing is to keep your rod down. Even make some contact with the water and rod tip.
Girl names: Mallory, Lurena, or just Rena and Cora and for mama, go simple, Gmama for goat mama or Gildy or maybe Bee. I'm sure that any names you choose will be good ones. Thanks for the video, it's always a treat to venture outdoors with you.
As an experienced fly fisherman, if you are having trouble laying the fly out, go up a line weight. it is OK to go up a line weight, and it will cast much easier with both the wet and dry flies. You will not get the nice gentle lay-down with a dry, but you can still get it where you want it to go. You also cast the fly line, not the fly. You need at least 10 feet of fly line out to be able to cast effectively.
I legitimately just found your youtube, and I have to say, you're absolutely awesome! I haven't gone fishing since I was a little kid, and just watching you do it makes me want to do it again! Thank you, you're truly inspiring. I can't wait to see the next video you upload!
Finally a new video yes! Keep doing this is amazing❤ Im a new fisher going in to the lakes, im spanish and moved not to many ago to Norway and here its a fishings paradise and you are helping me a lot to understand everything more. If you could explain tips on how to put a bobber on the rod or which times is better to fish… Thank you so much for you work
i really want to say your video is dramaticaly impressed me a lot. i cant stop watching one of any video on your chanel before i go to bed . bc it healing me to much after entire work day ♥ love it . from VietNam
One of the only channels I watch 100% of the videos that are uploaded, love your adventures leif 🙌❤️
really means a lot to hear! Can’t wait to get out again more now that the animals are all more settled in :)
@@NWFishingSecrets they look very comfortable, super exited to see what the future has in store for you and the property
Yessssss
We would be foolish to miss out on this
@maruiacancer6Put God first n wait
Yes! 38 minutes of adventure! Let’s go!
I have never binge watched a TH-cam channel before, but this content is just incredible. So thankful I found this channel. My new favorite by a mile.
The King returns
I don’t think anyone else does this with passion like this guy. Leif is really living the life. I enjoy the hardworking video 100% all the time! Appreciate you

Thank you soooooo much Leif!!!!!!!!!! You made my Monday sooo much better! I hope some day we could meet up and do a mountain adventure together! Fish on baby!! 🎣🎣
Have a great evening!! I’m announcing a meetup for August soon! It’ll be in Westport at the Tuna Classic! Would be awesome to see you there :)
@@NWFishingSecrets I’ll try to see you there! Live in the plains of Kansas soooo…. 😄. Can you maybe do a high alpine lake fishing adventure or a gear review? I’m trying to become a high alpine lake backpacker/fisherman!!
One more question - what gear would you you recommend for a alpine lake backpacking trip? And lastly any tips on getting better at fishing?
The goat names are perfect! Good job to everyone who helped name them ❤
Can't wait to watch this video! Hey Leif, I've been wondering where the 'tugboat' has been, could we maybe get an update on that soon?!
Thanks for enjoying! And wow, several people asked in the comments just now. I'm actually picking up a custom trailer for it tomorrow! (been waiting 2 years for it) So boat adventures are coming in the very near future!!
Damn what a gorgeous lake
YES Leif. I get so excited for your videos on every release. The farm updates, the adventure and your awesome vibe just helps me disconnect for a while and enjoy myself. Wishing you a good day from Ontario 🇨🇦 🤙🏻
Man, your adventure is really my mood booster right now, so glad you upload this morning🔥
IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS VIDEO I swear we haven’t hade a trout video like this in SO LONG. Thank you for bringing me excitement Leif.
This is the most fun fishing channel on TH-cam hands down.
I just found your channel about 2 months ago... my husband and I have been binge watching since then and really have enjoyed watching you grow over the last few years.. love your new farm! We are in our 50's and have just, in the last few years, started to become addicted to fishing and you've inspired us to be more nature conscious (taking garbage out when we find it, learning about mushrooms, wetting hands before touching fish, just to name a few things). We have a challenge for you! 48 hour - $20 "dollar store" challenge catch and cook! Get limit of 20 (dollar) items in 20 minutes and no other supplies. No poles, tents, things from home.. just 20 things from the dollar store (tax doesn't count) and make your shelter, fire, cooking tools.. water, bedding, lures (no bullet lure this time) etc.. forage, catch and cook!
I love how excited you get for every adventure. That’s how it should be.
You are the most positive person I’ve ever seen that has the ability to make every situation appear so exciting. You remind me of my half German half Chinese friend. Great content.
Awesome way to end the evening, great video, thanks Leif 👍👍👍
Glad to be here
My son (5 years) loves your channel. He wants to fish every day and says things like “bobber down” and “fish on baby”. Tonight we are enjoying a meal of fresh pickerel and whitefish caught by the little guy! Keep doing what you are doing.
It is paired with Persian Baghali polo (dill and broad bean rice) and farm fresh sweet corn!
That’s amazing!! 😂 love hearing it. And that sounds delicious! I’ve never had pickerel before but can’t wait to try. Say hi to your son! Fish on babyy!!!
We also gave the crispy fins and tail a try on the whitefish. Yum! Who would have thunk it!
Just what I needed at bedtime 😁
Man i love your videos please dont stop with what your doing!!
Something about your energy with animals speaks loud. The way you can handle the bees and all other animals I have seen without fear and not getting attacked is kind of amazing. I would have been stung haha😂
Haha nah man those bees woulda given you the love too
Hey Leif

Love seeing all the animals being taken well care of!! Can’t ever see myself doing those chores but glad somebody else is
Love the farm. Word of advice. Before those males get too much bigger, they need to be separated from the females unless you're going to wether them.
Thanks for enjoying! And solid advice right there. Luckily I got them as wethers... 👀 🐐
Fantastic 🎉
it's the best part of the day after work to just sit down and watch Leif's videos
It's a beautiful Monday evening ready to relax and watch NW Fishing

Best channel ever. I liked it even though there was no catch and cook. Thanks for your work!
I gotta say everytime I see a new video from you i always get so happy, your spirit and good mood always gets me in a god mood. Keep it up man!
For your fly rod rig, you can add a small split shot to the line when you have flies that don't sink easily. You can also use bobbers/indicators on fly lines as well. Another idea- look at the fly shop for a pattern that looks like dragonfly larva, then you don't have to keep looking for one !! :) :)
Just arrived at blowing rock this is the perfect video to watch outside looking at the mountians
Something my father taught me about being able to feel the bight and set the hook the fastest when fly fishing is to keep your rod down. Even make some contact with the water and rod tip.
Cute animals with cute names and always a thrill when you upload Leif, Fish On Baby ! ❤🐾🌟✌
Girl names: Mallory, Lurena, or just Rena and Cora and for mama, go simple, Gmama for goat mama or Gildy or maybe Bee. I'm sure that any names you choose will be good ones. Thanks for the video, it's always a treat to venture outdoors with you.
Thanks nw the amazing video 🎉
Fabulous video as ever Leif, you never fail to make us smile! 😊 those goats are on another level - AMAZING! Keep up the great work 👍
