Hey Rodney I would love to see your rod and reel arsenal! All big fishing channels have a rod and reel arsenal video, and I think it’s time you should make one! That would be soo cool!
Aggressive Loon! Not only will they come up next to your boat, they will attack you if you get too close to the nest in your float tube accidentally. Thankfully the only time I saw such a thing, an eagle and an osprey showed up and distracted it long enough for me to flipper my butt outta there! Great work guys, always fun to watch!
At Thuya Lakes lodge btw. Niel and his family are awesome and run a great lodge. Plenty of water around there to fish. They are near Little Fort, check them out!
Hey Rod, great video as usual. I'm a resident of the Okanagan but away from home at the moment so I love watching your videos when unable to chase the trout myself. Just wondering, you seem to do a lot of anchored casting/fly fishing for trout but rarely see you troll for them. Any reason you dont often troll for rainbows? Its pretty exciting when a big rainbow smacks your lure. Cheers
Thanks. It's just personal preference I think. I personally think anchoring off the shoals and focus on where I feel the fish are feeding works better than trolling around. I also prefer to have the rod in my hands when the fish strike.
always good watching your videos even when it was just you and the camera way back then, I do miss watching some of your cooking videos like the salmon gravlax after watching that video I made my own and man was it good. every year I go salmon fishing so I can make gravlax. you have some awesome stuff Rod and congrats on the 50k subscribers
I hooked a nice trout once and I knew it was about 2lbs, then suddenly it fought like it was a 6-10lb trout. Then up came a loon with my trout in it's bill. I was able to reel it out of him right away and netted it and revived it in the net for awhile so it could swim away from the loon if it needed to. A lot of noobs don't know to do that so loons learn in a hurry, free lunch.
lol... It really isn't a secret lake but I'm not going to name a specific lake here because that'd just draw too much attention to it at once. All of the lakes around the Kamloops/Merritt region can have productive days, but can also have awful days. It all depends on the weather, time of the year, etc. My advice to anyone who wants to try Interior BC lake fishing out, is to pick a lake that is known for reasonably consistent results, go several times, experience the good and bad days, and develop a pattern that can be applied to other nearby lakes.
@@FishingwithRod I just listened to your anchored podcast. And now completely understand why you don't name all the lakes. Thank-you for all your work.

Growing up there we used to go to heffley lake all the time. Beautiful lake
Great! :)
That's funny. I hooked a duck one time and had to cut the leader. They say the hook will desolve but not sure the duck would have lived till then?
Some solid trout action!!
Yes!
I know there was some dialogue in the video but I was completely distracted by those dark snappy eyes blinking cheerfully. Looks like fun. :)
I'll try to blink less next time. Rod :)
Yep, still in love with Kitty.
Great fish...great video!
Thanks!
Great video Rod 👍. 😉 those where some really nice fish🎣👍
Thank you again Andy!
That’s the old highway between Kamloops and Merritt

Thank you Jamie. :)

So many lakes so little time! I feel that pain my friend. Great video as usual.
Thanks!

Thank you Mike!

Hey what lake is this in Kamloops
Nice video, I did not know a loon could swim that fast. We have a few loon in Idaho they are a cool bird, and yes they need to eat too, sorry Kitty.
I love it when the loon comes over, all part of the experience. ;)
Rod

Another great video you two! 😁
Thanks Mike! :)
That was a good episode! I caught a loon!
Thanks Nick.

Keeping things pretty exciting
Congratulations, beautiful video, it seems where I fish here in *Brazil.*

Ernie
Thanks Ernie! I love both rainbows and brookies!
@@FishingwithRod Me to Rod me to 😃
I love it... cause she is going mushroom picking! Haha. Her heart is with the fungus. Slipping away from fishing slowly.
Shoosh, those fungi have nothing on this fun guy.
@@FishingwithRod Haha! That is a good one. Nicely said. I agree.
Here kitty kitty !! :)

Well, maybe Kitty was secretly feeling bad for the loon and wanted to feed it... 😆
Nice too see you guys fishing again especially on a lake I have fished 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for watching again Zack! Lots more episodes of both of us this summer.

Pennask trout must be in "blank" lake 😂😂😂
Poor loon has to eat also!!
That's probably the world's most well fed loon lol...
WHAT LAKE
🤔
Lol what click bait! I thought this was gonna be a video about luring fish to jump into your arms.
Im not even joking!
I guess we'll have to step up our game for the next video....
OOOOh Pennask trout at Pennask Lake.
They're offsprings of broods that originated from Pennask Lake. :)
Name the lake. Thumbs down.
👏👏👏
You mean lakes. He was fishing at 2 different lake, not one lake.
