- I didn't realize how many bears were actually around us until editing this footage. See how many you can find in the background!
Join my friends Ross, Casey and I, as we set out on a multiple day adventure to the remote island known as Prince of Whales, Alaska. Our goal was to explore different rivers and search for amazing salmon fishing. 100% self guided and self filmed, this video shows an authentic experience of how we learn new rivers and find fish in unfamiliar waters. In this video, we were primarily float fishing with centerpin reels, but we also casted spinners as well.
Thanks for watching!

Ollie and I are now back on our Michigan adventures for the fall season. Hope you enjoy this one from AK🤙 Stay tuned!!
I've actually been missing Ollie's. "fish on baby" facial expressions.
I want to see a buck down this season lol.
We’ll be ready.
Hell ya, Kyle. Awesome adventure. Welcome home.
Going to use some silver salmon eggs as bait?
This is hands down the best outdoors channel going on TH-cam. 💯
16:42 bear walks right by while you got a fish on 😂
Y'all know the feeling....
Oh goodie, Kyle's got a new video up.
😊
Thanks for letting me see this great part of God's creation and our country through your camera lens. What a trip that was! Thanks for the video.
Did anyone else see the giant spider on his hat? Lol. Thanks for sharing.
I cannot watch your videos before a meal! Great trip. It was like watching someone fish in a postcard.
Kyle, I look so forward at the end of the day relaxing at home watching your videos! You never disappoint buddy!
absolutely wild man, wow!
You were definitely checking something else when bobber down happened at 16:32, lol that thing was drained forrrrevvvver,,,,,!
Hahaha!! I thought I heard something across the river and then in the next clip a bear cut through the gap. I didn’t notice it until I was editing because I was fighting the fish🤣🤣
One of your hunting videos played after an Alberta Mule Deer Hunt video I watched. Well… 5 videos, I love your channel, your passion and the great shots you take. Love them! I hope to get outdoors more this year but boy am I living vicariously through you right now!
Just found ur channel and binge watching ur vids and I love ur enthusiasm and excitement and Ollie is just the best dog 🐕
Wow, that is a trip that I have always wanted to do. You never disappoint.
That was a great Alaska adventure, but Michigan will welcome you back with open arms. Steelhead are waiting for you in the big Manistee. Enjoy those silvers. Fish on! Baby!
I’m excited!! Hope you have a great season👊
Another great video, Nature, The Lord sure knocked it out the park! So amazing and the bears, I need to take fishing lesson from them.😊 be safe be blessed.
I've got to say man you and your content are a national treasure. So pure and real
Yall need to do a video with Addicted Fishing in Alaska, that would be awesome. Between you and Jordan, the content would be awesome haha
That colored up silver was stunning! ❤
Sweet trip!! Definitely on the bucket list!! Good luck on the steelies this year!! ✌
Great video. I’ve spent a lot of time on that island. Brought back a lot of good memories.
What an amazing place👊
I was just on prince of whales this past August!!!! Love the salmon run!!!! Tons of bears too
Fellow Yooper living in Alaska, found your channel a couple weeks ago. Your Videos are wonderful Kyle! Really enjoy the UP ones, helps with my home sickness :)
I’m glad to hear that! We’ll have some good UP videos coming up🙂
Seems like you guys had the same start we did on our trip in September. Caught very few silvers first couple days. You guys fished about all the same holes we did. decided to eventually bite the bullet and headed down to klowak. Worth every penny. Great time and great people up in alaska. Jake - Belding, MI. Love the channel, keep it up
Incredible video what a trip to remember. Definitely enjoyed
Thanks Bob!
Great video as always! Glad to see I am not the only one who takes a swim from time to time😂😂
You’ll have that😅
@@AdventureChasing the most important part was that you kept on fishing!
Loving watching your videos 🥰😍😍😍.
Another awesome video!
Loved your Alaska adventures! Can’t wait to see your new fall adventures!

Thanks Rob! Hope you’re having a great fall!
Just started watching! Omgeezy! Awesome❤
Thank you so much for the life of me I can not cook love the simple recipes
Its so nice to see your just one of the guys, doing real stuff i did 5 years ago. I hope i get out in wi the cohos not great last few years. But i cant do the creeks like that without worry and pain lol. But it would be nice to do some canning.
Kyle I can’t contain my excitement for each and every one of your uploads! I look forward to the time you have your own show on outdoor channel! Much love and keep on keeping on ~ John
That’s great to hear and I’m glad you enjoy them! I’ll keep the videos coming!!
Remote SE is my favorite place on earth. Awesome video
Awesome video Kyle!
What a great video! I love the travel adventures and the longer format. I'm heading out tomorrow morning on the White river totally motivated by your adventure in Alaska.
I really enjoyed your Alaskan adventure!
Your videos are the best, I watch every new one that comes out, keep up the good work.👍
Thank you! I’ll keep them coming👍
Great work Kyle
The graphics on this are so much better than red dead redemption 2. I didn't even know that was possible.
Awesome trip.
This is what I needed today
One of my favorites seasoning especially fot grilled shrimp.
Oh man!! I need some of that action in my life🤣
Majestic!!
Sweet video and fishing is awesome 😊😊

Great adventure to explore Alaska during this late season.😊
It’s definitely a unique experience!
Awesome video, I'm new to the channel but I'll definitely follow along woth your journey!
Wish I was there wow amazing
Absolutely amazing trip.
Awesome video ! Been lucky to have been to Alaska twice. But we fished Kenai & hit the Sockeye run perfect .
I was there with my dad, brother and my dad’s friend! When I was about 11 years old and my younger brother 10 years old bear hunting! I missed a Volkswagen bear across a bay! Trigger happy I guess! My dad’s friend and I was flown into a bay and dropped off the pilot said see you in a week and dropped my dad and brother in another covey float plane and said the same thing! My dad and brother both came back with bears! It took the pilot almost 2 weeks to come get us! It rained every day except the first day! Learning that the tide went out 50 feet or more in the middle of the night we had to move the tent into the forest! It was insane!
Love the videos. Living the life a lot of us dream about. Sad to hear you’re not running guided trips anymore. Some of the best west Michigan trips I’ve had have been out of one of your boats.
Great video as always brother.....I'd love to fish in Alaska for some Salmon!!!!!
Best channel on you tube!
Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
Kyle commenting and focused on bringing in his fish while a black bear casually walks across in the background unnoticed until cut to the next scene. 😂
Kyle, I love all you shows, i watch them daily and can't wait to say hi someday to you and Oliver. What is a good time for someone to make the trek north and catch Coho from shore?
Michigan rivers better look out Kyle’s back in town! Hope to see you out there!
Say hi if you see me out and about!!
Great video brother
Thanks for sharing. No place like Alaska.
Love the videos bro keep it up!
I know you like those centerpins but dang catching them on the spinners looks to be a lot more fun. You get to hear the drag scream. Have you ever thought about using salt water fly reels. You could back off the drag to let the floats drift, then apply the drag when you get the fish on. Just a thought you know your stuff for sure. I love how you show the struggle to find the fish. That really makes for an authentic video. Looking forward to seeing Ollie again!
It’s hard to beat a spinner bite!! The thought has crossed my mind over the years but have yet to try it. Ollie will be back soon👊
Far northwest centerpin fisherman here from the Bering sea, currently use 3 different sizes for 15-20 lb Arctic char!
Ya living the dream brutha proud of ya
Great video, and sweet rental truck!
😊 I love fishing but I will not try fishing with bears.
God bless you for your fearlessness.
Thank you Casey for grabbing the spinner!!
Such an awesome video Kyle! Sending love and support from the home land, Michigan! What was your furthest hike to reach fishable water on this trip??
Thank you!! It’s hard to say but we put on quite a few miles each day!
AK was very cool but ready for “Ollie up!” Hope you are out scaring the deer.
He’ll be back soon!
Great video - I'm jealous! You know you don't have to go all the way to Alaska to catch coho though, right? 😉
Thank you! We go for the adventure and experience as a whole🙂
Silver/Coho love to hit the spinner, Alaska, Michigan, big hits!
They sure do!
Kyle I moved from Manistique to POW thirty years ago. Wish I knew you were coming! I use a Hoochie skirt on a Gamagatsu jig with a bobber and work it in the slow water and they hit it on the fall. In the hole where you landed your first one several years ago I landed and released 54 by 1:00 pm. My arm couldn't take any more. Back then there were no tourists and often had the hole to myself. Glad you don't give directions! I really miss the people and the year round variety of fish in the UP. By the way, there is no H in Wales.
Wow, thanks for the comment and grammar tip. I grew up in Manistique and lived there until I was 16. What a beautiful place POW is. I’m sure I’ll be back again and can’t wait. Best of luck this fall and your upcoming seasons!
U were from mano? I'm from esky. Small 🌎
That would be awaome
I need to buy you a Rod Tube for your adventures... I ordered custom length tubes from a place. They weren't cheap but expensive Rods deserve protection...
Reminds me of the Olympic Peninsula,
the Queets and Hoe rivers, in Washington State.
Sick em 😁
16:42 bear watching you fish😅
Keep up the videos man i love watching them. We should fish together some time. I have a cabin in welston.
Come back up to the Houghton-Hancock area for another adventure
🤙🏼🎣🤙🏼🎣🤙🏼🎣🤙🏼🎣🤙🏼💯 MANTAP 💪🏼
Love the videos Kyle! What size hook are you running with the 20mm bead?
Fantastic fishing guys - best 37 minutes iv`e spent in 2025 , what camera did you use to film this adventure ? Thumbs up and a sub from me 👍👍
I understand you edit the videos short to get more people to watch them. But it's OK by me, if you create extended versions of each trip!❤
I’m glad to hear that🙂
You should go to the Hancock Houghton area
You should go to sawdust hole by tippy dam on the manistee the salmon run is crazy i went last week and got 12 keepers 6 snaged/ let go and 2 zombie fish
Nice job!! I’ve spent many many days fishing the sawdust holes!

Another awesome video! How do you know how deep to set the float when float fishing for salmon?
I always change my depths. Salmon will suspend a lot of times. Typically I’ll set my float until I start dragging bottom (you’ll know you are on bottom when the float leans sideways and constantly goes down while drifting). Once I find bottom, I’ll set it so it’s just off then go from there. It’s always a good idea to run shallow first though, maybe 2-4’ deep. Hope this helps👍
When were you there? I was in Terrace had some big coho
Did the spider on your hat at 14:41 scare the crap out of you when you found it? LOL
I didn’t even realize it until I was editing🤣
Biutiful fiscing😂😂😂😂😂😂
I need to see a lake huron adventure…
I’ll be back at some point!
How was the cured skein for bait from those fish in Alaska? Dontou think its better bait than the eggs you cure locally?
