Ice Fishing for Arctic Char in Alaska
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- Winter in Alaska ensures a thick layer of ice on the local lakes, so we dust off our tackle and head outdoors to target a new species. With the right jig, patience, and a bit of luck, we both successfully catch an Arctic Char. After a chilly day spent on the ice, we take these beautiful fish back home and cook up a delicious meal.
We appreciate you tagging along for our Alaskan adventure 😀
Thank you for watching and supporting our channel! 💙

That shot of the auger through the ice was AMAZING!!!!❤
My thoughts as well, super cool!
I came to the comment section just because of that shot, great work! Merry Christmas.
Absolutely. I'd love to see more of those. Maybe of the fish being brought up.
Yes it sure was amazing, beautiful
Watched it over and over lol so cool
I've been sick (cancer) and I was just thinking how much I would like to see a fishing episode with y'all! Takes my mind off of stuff. Thank you.
Hi Ann,
So, how are you now? Are you getting the standard treatment?
Sorry to hear you are sick.
Prayers for you.
In 1967-1968 I arrived to Canada, & went to Winnipeg, Manitoba, I was invited by an old French Canadian friend for an Ice Fishing trip in Winnipeg Lake. We catched too many big white fish, they were delicious to eat. But I hated that day, because I was frozed to the point that I can't open my hands flat. My Ears got frozen & very painful, I didn't believe when I returnd home, and I never repeat such an experience again. I even got angry, just watching you drilling holes inside the icing snow. You opened an old wond ha ha ha. Love your videos.
Seriously, that opening ice drilling shot was AWESOME!
Just Fun
That coffee is actually from the Canadian Rockies and the three sisters is a mountain range outside of Canmore, Alberta! Super cool they have that up in Alaska!
The chemistry between you guys is incredible. Power couple!
I sure appreciate your excitement and enthusiasm! No matter if you're fishing or gardening or building something, or cooking!
The shot of the auger going through the ice was 👌
Great!
I know I’m not the first, but I have to say that the shot of the ice drilling was so beautiful 🧊
Awesome another video.. fantastic!
Merry Christmas to the best YT channel! We are all so lucky to have a peek into your life. Thank you for sharing! Have a wonderful holiday season! ❤
Beautiful fish. Can't wait for chowder. Yum.
When I came to the US, I craved seafood a lot since there wasn't as much of the variety I was used to in my childhood country. I specifically craved steamed fish dishes. They can be slathered in chili and spices, or in a refreshing mint sauce. So I always get excited watching you guys fishing and preparing different types of fish. The char is mellow and fatty so you might have enjoyed it salted and grilled instead. It has delicate skin that can crisp up beautifully, so if you ever want to give it another go you can try that. It's similar to salmon and trout so it can also be baked in a soy honey marinade.
I was thinking the same. The recipes I've seen look like it can take a lot of strong flavors. I saw a spinach butter sauce, lots of big flavours like chimichurri, teriyaki, and one with chorizo!
Char, also known as 'brook trout' is among some of the lowest table quality meat i know of, they decimate cutthroat populations, i would ordinarily consider them noxious weeds but they have a slightly above average sport quality and they can reach up to 30 pounds. Of course i'm biased, i don't like much freshwater fish at all but i get crazy cravings for seafood like you. i like cod and halibut and and crab and stuff quite a bit.
Where are u from? I know in Indonesia they have a variety of steamed fish dishes with chili.
Artic char is my favourite! Yumm
I love char yum
now thats an organic fish dinner !! yum
Yay Canadian Coffee - love Kicking Horse!!!
Beautiful and tasty fish. Taste like a cross between trout and salmon.
Wow 2 great looking fish Happy to see that you both got one each man I love the way you cooked them looks so tasty Now I will have to run out and by some fish so My Lovely wife can cook them for me. Thanks for the great clips keep them coming they are Awesome I enjoy watching them.God Bless you both.
cool
Love my Calendar ❤ Thanks
I love Rainbow Trout, nothing beats them in my many years of eating fish... 🐟🐠
I love that it's fishing time again. I'll never get bored of the fishing 🐟 video's
Excellent!
So neat! Your fish looks like "starry night!"
I am truly loving every single one of y'all's awesome videos
Good times. Good eats. Excellent!
Super!!!
Kicking Horse coffee! Three sisters is one of my favourite blends. 🇨🇦
Ok that ice auger shot in the beginning altered my brain chemistry. Simply amazing.. the ice is so clear...
At 9:15 the coffee kicked in for Eric he was talking so fast...ahhhh coffee.🍵
Beautiful fish, dinner looked great too.
The auger shot was the best!!!
Congratulations you ! I love fresh fish . I often bake it and wrap with lettuce and fresh herb and dipping sauce . Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and all the best wishes ! Blessing all !
One of my favorite past times is ice fishing. When I drive out onto the ice and you can hear the ice cracking I always say it making thicker ice.
Smoked char is awesome!
Kicking horse is one of the coffees i restock in stores!!!!!
Amazing opening shot! All 3 fish are so pretty!
Three Sisters for the win! One of the most beautiful areas in Oregon. I love your honesty.. not every fish is going to be to your liking, but good food is good food!👍
Looks like it was fun
Your cinematography is out of this world!!! The effort to get some of those shots does not go I noticed and is appreciated! ❤
Great video thanks for sharing.
Great catch. Yummy.
I love watching them in the winter surviving and fishing while I'm laying in my bed eating chips and sour cream cuz at my age I'll never get to do what they do but I can get to go with them
That’s awesome you both got one. Mmmmm
awesome and what a lovely couple you make
Kicking horse coffee is awesome.
Eric measures the French press coffee so precisely, just like I do. Lol
Such a cool shot of drilling!!!
I do like your photography. I also like that you both work very hard to achieve your goals. This video shows that you try to balance the work with some leisure. That says you are probably happier than most.
Glad y’all could go out and have some fun after some difficult projects! Hope you have happy holidays ❤
I will go to Alaska soon it is calling me , thanksfor sharing!
That kicking horse coffee is one of the best that I've found. And it's not too hard to get. Yum!
Cool shot sequence through the ice!
That was a killer opening video shot!
This video was a nice little treat to wrap up the weekend!
So good.
Its so cool to watch the auger break through the ice. So amazing 👏
Awesome
Thank you for another great story in the day of the life of Eric & Arielle.
💚 Wow, seeing that auger drill down through the ice is so cool! I totally understand about not driving your truck out on the ice..I just get nervous about walking on it...Beautiful fish you caught. Congrats on the Arctuc Char 💚
Such a cool shot at the beginning
Fish for lunch sounds good
I love your videos! Thank you for sharing ❤!
The camera shot under water was epic.*And then I read the comments below. Yeah, you guys nailed that.
I love trying out new kinds of fish that I've never had before
Golly gosh!
Such a short episode haha love watching y'all! Hope to see more soon
I wish I was young and healthy again to be able to fish again. 🥲 I miss it so much 😢 Thank you for bringing this joy back to me.
Burr ! I am cold here but not like you two are. Thanks for sharing your beautiful videos. From Texas USA
The cinematography!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 Just wow
Good video nice catch ice fishing my favorite time of the year
Those are beautiful fish ! I’m so glad you got to mark something off for your bucket list !
Glad you each caught an Arctic Char. Both fish looked great. Eric's frozen mustache brought back memories of the three winters I spent in Alaska. Great memories! Thanks for taking us along on this fishing adventure.
That took me back as well. In my late teens to early twenties, I would go on my long runs in the Anchorage area. 5-10 miles, at 10-20 below zero. When I got back my hair and eyelashes were completely frosted up. What a magical time and place.
c1970s.
Looks good. Stay warm and safe
The whole video was fun - but that ending shot! Hysterical! Crazy mad - I'm-going-to-get-you - look from Eric! :)
Kicking Horse coffee is the best!❤🇨🇦
So glad you both got arctic char!! Have wonderful Xmas and hope your New Year is everything you hope for. Safe holidays and a peaceful New Year for all your followers.
Thanks Jeanne, right back atcha!
أنتم زوجين رائعين .. تحياتي من القاهره
So glad you guys are catching the fish and hopefully you catch a lot more this season

Great episode 👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Super fun to tag along on ice fishing. Love this style of vlog. Real exciting. Real beautiful area.
Love the little fishing pole. The fish had such beautiful colors. Both of you looked so cold. Wishing the best for you both for the holiday season. I am sure the dogs were nice and warm staying at home.
That was nice to see what happens under the surface when making the hole. Those fish were long, & pretty. So good to see you both. Have a really good week.
The two previous videos on the wood stove never made it to your playlist -- they need to be added. Love your videos.
Hi. I follow your guys. Amazing and different. I love your videos and your guys positive energy. Make my Sunday night relax. My favorites cabin videos. And love your dogs. And the tundra. I have one. 2017 limited. I love it. Thanks for your videos. Merry Christmas. To you guys and your subscribers : R Milan
Great Video!! Always love your catch and cooks👍🏻👍🏻😋😋
It's so good to see you guys out fishing and I hope everything's going well with your transition into your new Homestead Merry Christmas to both of you
Ohhh, I 'm so glad you are fishing again, they're my favurite episodes. 😎
"Let 'em know we're here" said no fisherman ever - *proceeds to catch the target species* ! Eric cracks me up dude
Well done. Arctic Char for both. I love seeing your Alaskan fishing adventures.
