- Canoeing and Camping on the West Branch of the Penobscot River.
Donnie and I go for a canoe and camping trip on the upper West Branch of the Penobscot River above Lobster Lake and Seboomak Lake, below Chesuncook Lake and Ripogenus Dam.
It's Donnies 64th year recreating in the North Maine Woods.
Its cast and blast week in Maine. Salmon fishing with a fly rod and partridge hunting season is open too.
We bring a metal detector to search for treasures in the wilderness at the old long forgotten and regrown logging camps and logging farms.
Two part series.
Donnie talks about how he was indoctrinated into the North Maine Woods by his mentor Al and introduces me to their ways.

Millinocket is my hometown...lived here for 35 yrs...I work on the Golden road...God's country is a good way to explain the stretch of country
Absolutely I couldn’t agree more.
Love this Joe. Not many fellas like Donnie around anymore to pass along their wisdom and stories of the North Maine Woods. Nothing like it on earth. Thanks for sharing.
He’s the best of the best and I consider myself lucky at all times with him.
Trips just like this are why i have lived in Maine my whole life and will never leave. Truly blessed to live in such a beautiful place. Great video Joe! Hope to see more
Absolutely, we are incredibly lucky
That looks like a good time
We had an absolute blast, Episode two is action packed.
Thanks for the video. My summers were spent fishing on Moosehead, the Roach Ponds, Wilson Pond, Chesuncook Lake and the labyrinth of streams in this area when I was a kid in the 1970's. This brings back memories of how much my Dad loved that area.
Such a great area thanks.
You'd love the Explore New England episode "Moosehead On My Mind". 💕
What an adventure it must have been!
Donnie was great I could listen to him talk about his history all day! Weird that this video hasn't gotten a million views, if you're reading this comment you should share it with as many as possible to help it reach people.
Thank you! Donnie is the best !
That’s a hole lot of boys for one little boat 🚤 😂
That's funny, I have never seen anybody else making American chop suey. My Grandma used to make it all the time and now I carry on the tradition. I have no idea where she got the recipe. I love it and make it all the time.
It is sooooo good!
Love these videos. Reminds me of listening to my Gramp talk about the old days up north and DownEast. Memories I will cherish forevah!
Awesome I cherish my time with a Donnie too
Absolutely love this video. I could sit for hours listening to older people telling me about their adventures.
Thank you, Donnie is the best of the best
I could listen to you guys tell stories fer days
I could probably sit and talk to Donnie forever! What a wealth of information and nice guy. Great video as usual.
So true, I cherish all of my time with him.
Another great video, Donny is truly a wealth of information.
Thank you! He's the best of the best for sure.

Thanks for taking us along on your trip Joe & Donny!
My pleasure thank you.
awesome video!! id love to be on that trip
Thank you it was amazing. We are so lucky.
Excellent. Thanks for this. Love hearing about the old times. Donnie is a great outdoor companion. I have a hard time finding buddies who are "right into it". I got one good buddy... We fish and camp and have fun but most guys just aren't into it anymore.
That’s such a shame , keep at it the best place to run into great people is out there while doing it
Love your videos, keep em coming. It's my dream to have a homestead in Maine one day.
Awesome thank you
Good times joe. 👍
Thanks bud!

@@JoeHollandFishingI haven't seen Donnie in a couple of years sold him many axes threw the yrs please tell him I said hi thanks mark from dike in down east Maine
I just watched Part 1 and Part 2 in the wee hours this morning. Great videos! My father in law showed me around a lot of areas up there, did some hunting and fishing and a lot of just riding. Brought back great memories. Thanks for taking me along!
Awesome thank you. Greatly appreciated.
Me and my parents always have meatloaf sandwiches for a tailgate lunch while in northern Maine bird hunting. Then partridge for dinnah. That just brought back some good memories. I really enjoy your video’s Joe. It’s nice to tag along on your adventure’s when I can’t be out on my own. Keep up the good work👍
Love day old cold meatloaf sandwiches
What a great video. Can't wait for part 2.
Thank you. Part two has some excitement.
Just found this video . I liked it from the get go . Awesome 👌 .

@@JoeHollandFishing Your most welcome Sir. Thank you. 😊
great stuff love north woods and maine campmore was in Minn.son and i got all our gear for 6 week back country trip to Alaska about 35 years ago
Very cool! Thanks for sharing
you should get a pinpointer detector it makes it easier to locate your targets,also you should check that lake while its so low!!!
For sure thank you
“We are freighted”….
“Is it dangerous”? …
“well….”
Classic!!! Awesome series joe. Loving every minute
Hahaha, thank you.
Finally a post.
Finally!!
Great video Joe. Had a smile on my face throughout! Donny was a good companion for sure. Loved his old school boy scout tent from 50 years ago! 😂
For sure, I’m really looking forward to this years trips with Donnie.
To be continued!!? Awww man it was so good I hate having to wait!
Good information from our older generation. Sad a lot is being lost forever.
Can’t wait for the ice fishing
Thank you. Yeah I couldn’t fit it all in one video. Tune in for episode two it has a lot more action. I’m pumped for this ice fishing season!
Beautiful scenery, Joe!
Thank you
It's a detail but I think it's great that you give reference as you go.
thank you.
Great to see you back on the Tube, Joe!!!
Thanks for introducing us to another character in the saga of the north Maine woods. What stories have flowed up and down that river. Reminds me of the stories from Edmund Ware Smith and his band of adventurers, Jakes Rangers. A mid coast man, as well, from Damariscotta. A lot of history in that river corridor. Looking forward to the next segment!!
Thank you,
Missed your videos Joe! Great one, thanks for sharing the experience with us.
Thank you
Great video!!
thank you.
I snapped my leaf springs up on golden rd... What an fun time!
For sure.
Glad to see you back. I love them back roads all the way to Portage.
Thank you
Great to meet you and Donny! Looks like you got into the fish too!
Thank you so much for the flies and being a great part of the NMW.
Not sure if Donnie’s cooking or humor is better
It’s a toss up for sure!
That's awesome Joe!!! Makes me want to go North more often!! :-)
For sure, thanks bud
Had to watch part one and part two twice.
Awesome thanks.
great to have you back been a while.
Thank you.
We rabbit hunt all through that area in October every year.
Very cool, Hoping for a plentiful rabbit season.
Love this video! You have a truly wonderful friend there and mentor! I did get to meet him at the fishing day that you did. Really a nice guy.
Thank you he’s the best of the best.
@@JoeHollandFishing I could see that in what little I talked to him at the other weekend at Damariscotta lake
Awesome job again guys so cool I need to learn to fly fish myself bud 👍 😀 never got into that
You should! Thanks
Awesome Joe.
Some many spots are familiar.
I have wanted to do as you guys did for quite some time

Agreed thank you.
Been waiting for this notification to come back on. You're awesome man.
Thank you so much, greatly appreciated
Ice cream season is over... Joe is back!
yessir!
Great video, I love when I see Maine being showcased on youtube! Insta like and sub, yer in my neck o the woods! Ebeemee pond is where my gramps camp was. His neighbor and best friend years ago was named Al from Mass. Couldn't be the same guy right?
I don’t think so. Thank you appreciate it
Joe, great video glad to see you are posting. When you were on the golden road you drove past the road our camp is on. It is on the Greenville road and our camp is on ragged lake. You should really try ice fishing there this winter there are big splake and salmon in there. Great vid
Is it open for ice fishing?
Love the north maine woods! Caught a few salmon out of the cribbworks, hard spot to fish!!
For sure thank you
Can definitely tell you've swung an ax before when you looked up before you started swinging was the tell tail sign!
Thank you. I love axes! Especially using them .
Look at that. Chop suey
That batch was gas free
Not sundays😂
Fished up in Maine Labor Day weekend. Stopped by your shop on the way home for an ice cream and missed you by a day lol.
Oh man, we closed a little early this year due to supply and labor shortages. Thanks a ton for trying.
@@JoeHollandFishing where is this shop? I wana stop and spend some money when you reopen! Lol
@@Ray-Willey Thank you, It's the Jefferson Scoop ice cream shop in Jefferson Maine.
Just hiked katadin yesterday stayed at pamola lodge. Drove the golden rd for a bit after wish I coulda met up with ya
You picked a great time to be here!
That guy pulling Donny on the sled with the snowmobile is my grandfather My stepbrother still uses that old bravo
Bob?
@@JoeHollandFishing yes sir
I remember him well. Had a lot of fun ice fishing with him on the annual trips
That truck that's in the video with the blue lights is my boss
No kidding, I saw him coming and going.
@@JoeHollandFishing did you see the big green truck with a really loud exhaust and all green lights also?
Enjoyed your trip video. Did you end up camping a Little Ragamuffin?
Yes thank you
Joe I bet your friend knows my friend from up there ask him if he knows Donnie Morrison
I will ask.
Campmore was in NJ Bergen CTY
interesting, thank you.
Welcome back! It's been several months since you last did a video. Do you typically only make videos in the wintertime?
Correct. I work everyday no days off for six or seven months then just make videos all winter and a few in the fall now.
@@JoeHollandFishing wow! Construction?
Not anymore, it’s ice cream now.
It’s definitely time to run the road grader over this road a few times lol
So true it was twrrible
Great video? Do you guys have natural copper over there?
Thank you, Not that I know of.
Wheres all those Maine Smallies?
Try the search spot on my videos I have a handful of smalley videos with some Maine giants
