WINTER Salmon & Steelhead Fishing | Washington 4K

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.ย. 2024
- Watch my first hunt for Winter Steelhead, which ends with a surprise catch! December Chum fishing finally picked up again after some heavy rain, and the first Steelhead should be in the rivers. After a day of fishing a couple different Steelhead rigs, I hooked into a CHROME Chum Salmon on my pink Steelhead worm. The Washington Salmon fishing season may be coming to an end, however there are still some beautiful fish in the rivers.....

Honestly man, I started watching your channel recently, and I've fell in love. I would only dream of being able to do what you do everyday, keep up the great work.
Thanks man, hearing that means the world to me. So glad to have you as part of the team 👊🏻 🎣

So have I
Respect to you bro! Most people would've fish that creek and snag as much salmons as they can.
That must be such an amazing moment. The end of one life and the beginning of the next. Thanks for sharing and keep your lines tight but I don't think I need to tell you that!
It was an amazing day..... Glad you see it that way too - being out in nature truly shows the circle of life ❤️ I'll be sure to keep my lines tight!
Been subscribed for about a month now. What got me into fishing videos is that I wasn’t able to fish for about eight years because I was in prison. I fished every day before I was sent away. After a long years of doing timeI got out and didn’t have any gear. So I’ve been watching TH-cam videos. And you are by far my favorite channel. I love your 3 to 4 day survival videos. I wish there was more I watch all of them in a matter of two or three days. Thank you so much for the content. Your personality and attitude towards wife is one of the highlights of my day. Not only do I enjoy watching the fish but the conversation you have with us is incredible. I doubt you’ll see this comment but in the case that you do you’re an inspiration to me. I’m doing good now and I’ve been doing good for about three years now. I look forward to getting off work, Relaxing in front of the TV, and watching your constant. You’re awesome keep it up. (A shout out would be awesome, my name is Miller)
Bobber and egg fishing, It’s so satisfying. I was never confident that I was going to catch any with eggs, I usually put a beat down on them with jigs and spinners but man this year I hooked up and landed so many with eggs that I finally realized once you get the right depth you can’t keep them off. The bobber downs and underwater footage is what got me to suscribe. I caught about 28 salmon this year mixed between Kings and cohos but this was my greatest year combining the past 5 years I’ve went out. I’m 16 and love fishing. actually caught my first two beautiful steelhead on twitching jigs. Great channel Life!!! Keep up the great work and TIGHT LINES BROTHA. Good luck out in future ventures.
Hey I really wanted to thank you for writing this. Means a lot to hear this from you and that you've grown as a fisherman. I've felt the same way this year, and making these videos for us has really pushed me to learn new things. Can't wait to see where things go, and am glad to have you subscribed and part of the adventures!! Fish Onnnn!! 🎣
Great to see salmon fishing from Washington, I spent time up there and learned from old, old school fishermen and it was the best time.
Washington sure is a unique place when it comes to outdoors and fishing. Honestly a lot like Alaska, minus the endless dark and snow 🤣
Thanks for posting, man. You deserve as many likes as fisherman's life for sure! Keep fishing never stop!
Thank you! That means a lot to hear... 🎣👊
Love watching the fishing I'm into trout fishing and I'm addicted
love that shotgun on your back
Thanks! She wanted to come out of the safe for a day!
Same! Glad you are watching out for your own safety.
Yeah, i appreciate the mindfulness of the situation and environment. Nature is beautiful but the food chain is real.

Honestly I fell in love and make more steelhead fishing plz those are my favorite videos
I discovered your channel a few weeks a go and I love the length of the videos, not too short, and you always maintain the interest with the fishing action, beautiful locale's and your variety of video (aerial drone, underwater, GoPro) and your exuberance when when you hook up. I find myself throwing out a "Bobber down, or Fish on" when I hook up on the river near my Sacramento home. As for favorite video, I was raised trout fishing in the California Sierra's so the mountain trout catch and cook is high on my list, but those giant steelhead have to be my all time favorite (so far). Keep it up. I'm addicted to your channel. Keep doing your thing and I will be right there with you.
I haven't done much steelhead or salmon fishing, let alone know much about them. Thanks for sharing! Great drone shots as well!
Oh dude!! Stoked to see you here in the comments! I'll gladly go fishing together for some Steelhead. Sadly I don't know much about them either 😂 Love your videos man, let me know if you ever want to film together!
I've been watching almost from the beginning. .. Not much of a fishermen but
Always want to learn more, Love the way you explain all your setups and gear...
Your Huge Lingcod got me Hooked. .
Keep 'em coming!
Love the Drone Footage.
Thank you Alberto! Can't believe it's already been that long! Been thankful for your support and subscription since day 1!! Will keep em coming for ya. Including some more big lings!!
You crack me up. You tell us to watch the bobber and I do but you miss it so often. I knew you had a fish.
Starting fishing about 3 weeks ago with my brothers and cousins. We're new to the sport but are eager to learn. Your videos really inspire me to learn more about the craft. Love your catch and cook videos as that's what I find beautiful about fishing, to be able to provide a meal and enjoy the outdoors. Keep it up brutha!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤JAcKSoN.
I discovered a small pond near my house but had ZERO luck catching anything for 3 days straight.. one google search later & I stumble on one of your videos & you were just slaying fish on a pond. You gave some awesome tips that stuck with me. I went to that pond the next day with so much excitement lol ( I think your enthusiasm rubbed off ) I landed 3 bass. They were small but thanks to your videos I’m out of the house a lot more & my heart is full. I find your content therapeutic & your videos are now my getaway, when I can’t get away 😁🤙
Smoked chum is awesome. Great steelhead eggs too.
Thanks! Can't wait to try that smoked Chum.... And I'm using half the eggs for caviar, the other half for bait 🤙
You asked for some subscriber information:
I don’t recall when I subscribed, but I have been watching quite a few of your TH-cam videos during the past month. My wife and I are moving to Port Angeles soon, and your videos are a great source of inspiration and motivation as I work out the logistics of the move.
The structure of your videos, the focus on PNW fishing, your interesting lines of spontaneous narrative combined with your down-to-earth personality, and the way you show your delight while you are catching a fish all combine to make your videos very entertaining and informative.
Thanks for the work you are doing. You are giving great value and I hope you are being compensated accordingly. When it comes time for me to buy fishing gear, I will look for your links before I shop elsewhere.
Hey David! Thank you for the kind words and honest insight. I love the Port Angeles area so that sounds like a great move! Thank you for the support!
I subscribed about 2 weeks ago. The reason being i had enjoyed your kayak salmon fishing videos. My favorite videos from you are your kayak fishing videos
Love hearing that! Will be sure to go out on the Kayak more. Thank you for the feedback and being subscribed 👍
And seeing someone who respects nature so much, and watching the cooking parts always makes me hungry
I've been subscribed to the channel for about 5 months. I love all your videos. They remind me of why I loved living in Washington. My favorite videos are the alpine lakes video and shark catch and cook video. Keep up the good work and nice shotgun! Love your ethics and sincerity as well. It really shows in your videos.
That means a lot to hear! Those two are a couple of my favorites as well. Can’t wait to do more fishing in the Alpine Lakes! Everyone better be prepared for some more open carry up there 😂 Thank you for being subscribed and all your support!
When I lived in Juneau I'd troll and cast big streamer flies to totally bright chrome chums in the ocean in a small bay they would congregate in just before they entered a nearby river. It was like hooking into a dump truck - really strong powerful fish! They taste great cooked, taken off the bone and then mixed with yellow curry, onions, golden raisons and some cream to thicken the sauce.
That would be a fun place to fish for them! And I've definitely heard they are hard fighters, but this one didn't seem to want to fight until she was already on shore 😂 Definitely tasted delicious though! I was highly impressed at the flavor and juicyness of the meat even though it is very pale colored. And I just tried the eggs - delicious! Thank you for enjoying!!🎣
We first found you in the summer when we first started getting into Salmon fishing. We moved to the PNW from Phoenix. We are in Tacoma. We are totally hooked! Thanks.
Sweet! Welcome to the PNW!! How was your salmon season? Thanks for being subscribed 😊 🎣
Funny. We moved from Tucson to the PNW! 🌵 to 🌲
Funny...We moved to Phoenix from Seattle. Love it in both locations. We still visit and fishing is always part of the trips we make back to the NW.
Im a tribal guide and can take you on the beautiful Quinault river my Snapchat is Levi_noble 19 cheap cheap prices
Another great one bud hope to see you at the rivers soon I'll fishing the cow and chuck after the holidays with my buddies tight lines
Thank you Jason! Good luck on those rivers man, maybe I'll run into you guys down there 🎣 Tight lines!
We usually smoke our chum. Great video!
Answer:
3 months since your “Stopped by the US Navy” and that is my fav since I was in the unit that stopped you haha. I wasn’t there but that is what I used to do!
Half of it is going in the smoker!! Any recipe you recommend? Tips? And love hearing that! That was a fun video to make, and was one heck of a surprise!! The guy that stopped me actually turns out to be in the same boat club as me! Believe also a subscriber here 😂
NW Fishing Secrets usual brine golden brown sugar and salt over night and my kids like a little spicy on it so we put red pepper flakes after you clean the brine off and let it rest and I usually use a apple wood to smoke. But I have used more stronger wood like hickory or mesquite. It’s mostly up to your taste. But that’s how I do it!
Steve thank you! I’ll give it a try and post the results on IG!! 🐟 🔥 will Probably add red pepper! Sounds good
Keep it up!! Great work. Steelhead are coming soon
Hey!! It's Holymoly!!! We gotta get together and fish for some Steel. Glad you enjoyed the video 🎣
Yes we do man! Real soon
Just started following, subscription after watching just two episodes.
Thank you! Means a lot to hear that you're enjoying the videos so much 🎣
A little late to the party but i got into your videos from a friend who recently got me back into fishing during a free fishing day, i caught 3 stocker rainbow trout! Fav videos are definitely the alpine lakes! Been watching for a few months now! Fish on! 🐟
Wow, nice chum..very pretty where you was fishing..
I started watching when you went squidding across from Seattle..forget the name of dock..
I used to fish rivers but i like the salt water...
Thank you for letting me know! I'll be sure to do more Salt fishing 🎣👊 And the dock was Seacrest!
With deepest respect I love your videos. I am an avid fisherman in the Rock River of Northern Illinois.
I’m a bass fisherman but I’ve been trying to expand my horizons going to ocean fishing and also been trying some trout fishing in lakes (stocked of course) but one day I want to go somewhere in a river and do some salmon fishing..and your vids are so awesome I wanna try it one day
Thank you that means a lot to hear! I still need to do some more Bass fishing... You'll love salmon fishing rivers. Hard at first, but once you get the hang of it - it gets addicting 🤙 🎣
Ian Balauro I have a bass fishing channel. Check it out when you have the time!
Been subscribed for one week, watch because I enjoy your enthusiasm and sense of humor and I have ADHD, too, and I love how much you love the outdoors. So do I!
I love what ur doing..i cant do what u do coz i live in so cal..i learn alot from ur vids in case i got the chance..but great content always
Thank you! 🎣👊 What do you catch down in So Cal?
I enjoy watching you fishing and watching all your videos. There are no other that is so entertaining than yours.
Loving the vids like always man 🎣🎣
Thank you 👊🎣
I subscribed in September and ive fished the lake Washington area so running into a Western Washington fishing channel was the main reason why I subscribed. I've finished both Western and eastern Washington. Love your channel please continue to keep it real as you have been doing it.
Glad that you're local and enjoying the videos 🎣 I'll try and make it out fishing eastern WA soon too, and will be sure to keep it real no matter what. Thank you for your input and being subscribed! 👍
steelhead 4 like
Gotten any yet?? 👊 🎣
Yeah I caught one a few days ago in the yuba river in California
I caught it on the fly it was a nice fight you should try fly fishing
I love that your local, I’m glad someone is catching them and glad that it’s you man! Great video!
Alejandro Guillen haha thank you!! Took me 4 days to catch this fish and it meant a lot. Glad you are subscribed and enjoyed the video!! 🎣
"Then we'll bonk her, and we'll take a quick look at this fish"
*Pulls out shotgun with bonking intent*
😂😂
Dupflup boiiiiiii 😂🤣
Just started watching your videos and we are HOOKED!! Love your energy and all the great tips!! Keep up the great vids!
That's a great stretch of river buddy. That is my go to spot for about 15 years now.. awesome vid
Beautiful area.... Washington blows my mind every time I turn a corner. Just got to get out and explore new spots..... 🎣 Thank you so much for enjoying
what river is this
adrian hernandez puyallup river
adrian hernandez I keep river names secret, but you’ll quickly learn that most rivers in WA have beautiful secluded stretches like this... I use Google Maps to find them! Hope this helps 👍🏻
Paul P 😂
Only started watching about. Week ago but the alpine fishing videos have to be my favourite just an ordinary guy helping other people witness things cud never think of so respectful and humble even with all the fame 🤝
I watched the video of you giving a guy shit for snagging fish and I thought that was cool so I subscribed 👍🏼
Thanks man, I appreciate that 😂 🤙
@@NWFishingSecrets dude now way youre name is life thats my sheeps name sadly it passed away : (
but its a long time ago soo its okay : )
I subscribed because I love the places you fish , the way you set-up your camp , the ways that you cook , BUT MOSTLY BECAUSE I REALLY LIKE YOUR PERSONALITY ! I never been out west ( period ) ! A small tip for you ..... I went with a friend long ago fishing for stocked trout . I used worms, he used pink & orange mini-marshmallows. Let just say , he caught 6 trout to my every one that I caught !!!
Checkout his Shotgun he had on his back pretty killer are there Bear in that Area!
Lol or just an excuse to take a nice piece out of the safe 🤙🏻 🎣 tight lines
Ive been subscribed for about 7 months and why I subscrobed is because your an amazing person and my favorite video is this one
Thank you man 🤙 🎣
No problem man your very kind fish on!
I would like to see more saltwater vids. Salmon, Lings Rockcod and halibut.
Deal. I'll be out in the salt more this winter, and coming Spring will be out hunting for all the above 👊 🎣 Thank you for letting me know!
OK Awesome.
I subscribed because of your style. I tell people you're the Bob Ross of fishing videos.
That thing is so bright for being that old, love the open carry btw
Thanks! She wanted to get out of the safe and join me 👌 And the Chum was interesting.... Chrome on the outside, but like a pale Pink Salmon fillet on the inside. Any experience? First Chum I've ever cut...
@@NWFishingSecrets Yeah chum in some places will really cut well even if they are greenish and chrome, and other places will cut differently. They taste really good actually, alot of people think of them as trash fish but they are quite good if prepared well.
@@eddieb6845 Just ate half of that fish last night. Absolutely delicious! Meat was flavorful and very juicy!! Plus the caviar is amazing... Snuck a spoon of it this morning, but will save the rest for Christmas 👍
@@NWFishingSecrets Btw I strongly recomend you go steelhead fishing tommorow, high rains, and steady rains will push most of them into the area you fished in this video and the other river near by that you have thought about fishing, and if you fish roe, go smaller more natural colored clusters
@@eddieb6845 Thank you for the heads up man, I'll try and get out there...... Probably to the river with the hole by the creek 😂 🤫
Been a subscriber for about a year...love all the van camping videos
How easier is it to catch salmon than steelhead? And I think I know what river this is and stay safe because there have been bad stuff in that area in the past. - tight lines
Thank you, the river has had it's history..... And from what I hear it's easier to find Salmon - but hard to trigger a bite. Opposite for Steelhead! 🎣
Catching Salmon is like shooting fish in a barrel they refer to Steelhead as the fish of a 1000 casts... you do the math lol
Steelhead definately harder to catch. Thats what makes it that much better fishing...
@@NWFishingSecrets Agreed. If you find fresh steelhead they are usually pretty willing to bite, its finding them that can be the tough part.
Way easier to catch salmon.
Mountain trout hiking trips are my fav
What's with the bear scatter gun??????? Remind me again of the last time someone was attacked by a bear in our state? I guess you could be defending yourself against some pesky ducks and geese. Good luck out there, seeing how rivers are starting to close down due to the lack of 2-salt steelheads. Ditch the top worm. If you do happen to hook something on it, the odds are high that the trailer hook will either get caught on something during the fight, or caught in/on the fish and cause the top hook to pull out. Happens all the time for nymph guys. You are way better off just running a single offering setup.
Not really worried about bears or mountain lions. Just need an excuse sometimes to carry. Something about it makes you feel like it's 200 years earlier. Where I'm from (Germany) this wouldn't be possible. And thank you for the rig advice!! That actually makes a lot of sense. I could see getting more hookups, but you'd lose more fish and gear. I don't like leaving gear behind in rivers and especially not in a fish's mouth, so I'll probably just run single setups from here on. Thank you! I'll be sure to mention this in the next Steelhead video 👍
To be fair, there are more than just bears in WA state. There are even meth heads who I would not want to run into alone. I feel he is smart for carrying protection. There are both wolves and possibly even Grizzlies making a comeback. Mountain Lions alone are enough for me to be armed when in the woods especially when alone.
@@EndofDaysRadio Only thing I'd be worried about with a tweaker near a river is if and when the little crack heads break in to your vehicle to steal your stuff or to siphon our your gas. Past that, if confronted with a "wild and dangerous meth head" I'd whip the living snot out of some tweaker with my Loomis IMX 125c. As for a dangerous animal encounter - think you're about as likely to get attacked by Bigfoot as you are a grizz, wolf, mountain lion, or even a black bear. More than likely, the tweakers dog might bite you. I guess you live in a more dangerous, hostile and different Washington State than I do. PS. A concealed pistol works just fine as well.....AND...it's not drawing attention to yourself because you have scatter gun across your back. Just because one CAN do something doesn't mean it's a good idea.....
@@Elparquito him carrying that shotgun is perfectly fine and I for one would welcome that. At least I would know them to be law abiding since they aren't trying to hide their intentions. Here in AZ, it's not so much the animals you have to worry about but the people just like everywhere. I've encountered bears here and in Washington when I lived there. Both times I was fortunate enough to be far enough away from them that they left me alone. Another occasion I was with a group of four people and a bear snuck up on us. Luckily, he left us alone while we screamed and hollered and threw rocks at him and eventually he swam across the river and out of site. When I lived in Washington, someone broke into my truck while fishing on the sky. I was with my two little daughter's and I never felt so threatened before or since while fishing. Not even the bear encounters left me that shaken. And usually they aren't alone but have a buddy. I tend to fish alone because I enjoy the ability to fish where, when and how I want without having to accommodate someone else. However, that also makes you a target. Since he is carrying hundreds of dollars worth of camera gear in addition to his fishing gear, I would always carry if I were in his shoes. We live in a country where as a law abiding citizen you can carry. We shouldn't try to make someone feel like a criminal or that they are doing something wrong even though they are being lawful. With that being said, I hope you get out and catch some fish for me. There aren't any salmon in AZ! Take care.
@@romeo1550 That pretty much sums it up. Wildlife is really only part of the reason for carry, as statistically wildlife is safe. Tweakers on the other hand are far more dangerous and unpredictable. I am usually out there all by myself, and carry $2k + in camera gear and electronics with me that I have out very openly. Tweakers look for what they believe is easy money - so if they believe the risk is too high, they will leave you alone. Elparquito made a good point in that sometimes you don't want to attract attention by openly carrying, which I do believe is the case when I am in urban places. But the the reason for carrying there is different than in the country, as you are not protecting yourself from tweaker thieves, but rather more serious threats, which WILL target you first if they see you carrying a gun. That is where concealed carry is perfect. Either way, there is nothing wrong with carrying a firearm when you are out in the wild, and I believe in responsible carry and being non threatening towards others. I greet people in a friendly fashion, and no one has ever reacted weirdly to my open carry. I FULLY UNDERSTAND how some people might have an aversion towards carry, especially if they come from places where this is not common or legal. I am from Germany - where this would be considered crazy and absurd! But here, it is not uncommon, and perfectly accepted and legal. Plus I do know of plenty of Germans who wish they could carry btw 😂 Live and let live, just don't harm others or the environment 🎣
We are very excited and really like your creative ideas, made it enjoyable to watch and keep watching, hope you continue this great idea forever.
Does anyone know where this is? Or where to go for winter fishing in Washington? I wanna try this out but I have no idea where to go.
Lots of places you can go to! What I would recommend is look up your local rivers in the fishing regulations to find out which ones are open and have Salmon/Steelhead in them. Then use Google Maps to scout for secluded & fishy looking spots. Then take a day to drive the spots and see which ones can be accessed! (make sure to bring a pole 😂) This way you will find the best and most private fishing spots like I show in the videos. If you go to the spots that people give away, you'll probably catch fish as well, but expect crowds of people as the spots are no longer secret 👍Hope this helps!! Tight lines!!! 🎣
I've been subscribers for 5 years now and I subscribed because I get to learn new fishing tricks and I love when you go exploring
It looked like you bonked with the heel of the rifle
Don't give me ideas 😂😆
I just subscribed, I have been considering starting a fishing channel based in Washington State since there aren't many at all! I'm glad that there's someone else doing it!
Thanks brother! And you’re right, that’s why I started mine! Washington is one of the best States for fishing, the world just doesn’t know 😂 Glad you’re subscribed!
@@NWFishingSecrets it is honestly some of the best fishing! I fish mostly SW washington!
Nice home defence 12 gauge.
Thanks! Never know when you'll run into raptors.... 😂

I sure hope he never needs to use that unreliable, over priced paper weight.
I’ve been subscribed for a few months now, what made me subscribe was your salmon fishing videos, I enjoy watching salmon and steelhead caught with a bobber, it’s my personal favorite way of catching them.
Love hearing that - fishing with a bobber has become my absolute favorite as well. Just something about that visual fishing.... Plenty of Steelhead bobber fishing coming your way, thank you for being subscribed! 🎣
I have not subscribed but Im not sure if I want to but I liked the video from what I 👀... I think, May God BLESS you 🙏🙏🙌🙌
Ha! I appreciate the honesty! Don't subscribe, unless you want to enjoy regularly 😂 Tight lines!
I love your videos. I am a subscriber and I will watch all of your videos and you are a good fisherman.
I like the solo mountain catch camp and cook. I love the natural environment. I have been subscribed for about 9months. It is inspiring. I'm not physically able to do one myself. 16 year dialysis... I love to fish. Thanks for doing what you do..
It is fun just watching u explore and fish even if u don’t catch anything
Thank you!! Honestly, it really is a ton of fun to just explore and soak in the landscapes... But you know we always catch something in the end 😉😂🎣
So beautiful place, have a nice fly fishing
Thank you! I'll definitely do some fly fishing soon!
@@NWFishingSecrets You are always the best. Have a good time~
My son absolutely loves your videos. At 7 years old, he's wanting you to do more of his favorite, which are Catch & Cook in the mountains lakes. Your videos have been a household staple ever since we found your channel. Thank you for being such a positive inspiration to him, we all really admire you. We've been subscribed for about a month so far.
Subscribed about 2 months, bobber and eggs was what caught my eye but fish tacos was probably my fave. Keep them coming, love the adventurous nature of your channel.
Those the fish tacos on the boat that we cooked up? 😂 Those were so good..... Thank you for being subscribed and enjoying the videos, I'll keep em coming for ya 🎣
Good thing you got out before all this rain, it’s crazy right now. So glad I found your channel, I relocated to Seattle from MD about 5 years ago, and haven’t had much luck with my fishing since I’ve been here. I’m motivated to get back out there after watching you, I want to try for some salmon! And yes, I am subscribed, and I loved your lingcod and your alpine lakes catch and cook.
I bet the rain has flooded some rivers! Wouldn’t want to be there right now, that’s for sure! And definitely just stay motivated and patient! Those are the only tricks up my sleeve. Took me 4 days to catch that one Chum! 😂 Put in the time, and it will happen. Of course always remember to enjoy the ride 🎣 so glad you enjoyed the Alpine Trout video. That is still my favorite till this day and I can’t wait to return to the mountains...
I started watching you in 2016 and still watch you today.
That's a nice fishing spot bro :)
Btw my favorite video was your alpine lake trout catch and cook. I really enjoy that type of video. More catch and cooks and alpine lakes for me. Keep up the good work.
This means a lot to hear. That video is still my favorite as well. Best type of fishing.... Will be sure to make more 👍 Thank you for the feedback and being subscribed!
I have been subscribed since the first flounder video. I may be a single digit subscriber. My favorite video is the shark catch & cook. And what made me subscribe was your sincerity and passion that came through. I appreciate that and I think you will do great and eventually be a force in the northwest fishing industry soon enough. Keep up the good work and keep that rod til up lol
haha you know what, I think you ARE a single digit subscriber! I believe I remember seeing a comment or subscription notification from you right around uploading that video. Needless to say I didn't get a lot of subscribers at that time 😂 Makes me all the more thankful you subscribed and have been part of this since day 1 - especially at that time you guys kept me going... Let's see what 2020 brings. I know we'll have some fun 🎣
I’m definitely going to be along for the ride. I have been in the fishing industry for some time now. Recently changed the side of the industry I am on. Previously sales and now conservation but I have been around long enough to know that passion drives passion. If you ever needs support please reach out
I’m new to Washington bc I’m military and stationed here, I’m super stoked to get out and try some fishing spots around here, the channel is great sofar and good info forsure.
Love your laughing!
Been subd for a couple months, love the content and I actually live in the surrounding areas you fish in!
I'm sure you recognize a few of the spots 😂 Thanks for being subscribed man!
My friend and I fish in BC, and subscribed to you this past salmon season, BOBBER DOWN!!!
Oh BC... Beautiful place I want to fish one of these days! BOBBER DOWWNN 😂
I am a new subscriber. I recently moved back to Washington after about 25 years living in the south. Now I'm relearning how to fish the PNW.
Oh, and my favorite videos are the saltwater vids. Cod, halibut, flounder, etc..
Welcome back to WA! Fishing here is amazing, so I bet you're having a good time out learning! Will be sure to make more salt videos! Appreciate the feedback and you being subscribed 🎣👍
Really love all your videos, been watching since August To answer the question, I think your passion for catching fish is the most inspirational reason why I watch and subscribe. No matter how long you have fished in Washington, there is always more to learn.
Thank you for producing great videos.
Thank you! That really means a lot the way you said it. And you’re so right - this State will always teach you something you didn’t know.... I love sharing that 🎣
i really enjoyed your underwater videos, but also the remote lake trout fishing, although that sturgeon video was awesome timing, being at the right place at the right time.
Good stuff. My daughters 4 and 6 ask to watch you over cartoons. Keep this up.
Awsome chum are a lot of fun
Enjoy! 🎣
I have been watching for a while but just subscribed I like the salmon steelhead videos because that's what I mainly fish for. They are nice to watch.
Nice love salmon and steelhead fishing
And you make me really really want to go to Washington and fish!! Fly, baitcast, spin, river, don't even care. My wife and I are gonna go there someday for sure!!
I like your videos because of your personality.... how your always trying to pick up waste and litter when ever possible to keep our environment clean. Your positive and humble attitude. There are countless number of fishing videos but your personality is what made me subscribe. Keep up the good work and great attitude!
I have been subscribed for about 4 months ... I like your channel. Be cause I also live in Washington and i love fishing every weekend .. and watching these video make me think of what place to go next to fish. And catch

I've been subscribed for quite I try to smash that like button everyday started watching your show when you started picking wild mushrooms and cooking with kind of what I've been doing most of my life
Catch and cooks are my favorite.
Thanks 👍🏻 same here!!
Quick steelhead tip. Fish for them like you are fishing for stream trout. Steelhead behave the same way. Fish small pockets behind rocks and structure and cover lots of water. Getting a steelhead to bite is easy. Finding them is what is hardest. If you can go up to forks and fish the bogachiel river. There are quite a few in there right now. I got one last time I was there.
Thank you!! That really helps a lot, as I'm more used to Trout fishing.... Will definitely try and make it out to the OP again soon and will keep the river secret! 👍
