Happy you didn’t shy away from showing your emotion here, most people wouldn’t. I commend you for it. Nature has a funny way of bringing that out of outdoorsman, it captivates you and reaches you in ways nothing else can. Besides the birth of my children, and my wedding day, few memories touch those that I’ve made in nature, when nothing else matters time seems to stand stills and everything else is shut off and it’s just you and the water and the woods. Some days having to work for it is more rewarding than slamming fish, humility and respect for nature goes a long way, and when lessons are learned and dues are payed it all comes together. Thanks for sharing your life long memory with us. I look forward to making my own, tight lines.
I have 2 more years before I retire as a corrections officer in Michigan. The first thing I plan on doing right after spending 24 yrs of my life working in a maximum security prison is go spend a week in Alaska. I can’t wait. Trust me.. I’m counting down the days. I guarantee you when I leave , I too, will shed some tears on my way back home. Awesome video again Kyle ❤🎣🎣🎣🎣
I just got caught up and then you blessed us with a new video! Thank you for bringing Michigan to me for the last few years while I haven't been able to make it back home -- your videos are the next best thing! Hope you had fun in Alaska!
“ you should never go to Alaska as a young man because you'll never be satisfied with any other place as long as you live.” John Muir Maybe someday I’ll make it up there. Awesome video man!
I absolutely love all your videos. I travel up to Michigan several times a year to fish a lot of the same waters as you do and absolutely love to see all of your content. It's an absolute crime that you don't have a million subs or an outdoor channel show by now!
What a great trip. I’ve said it before, your enthusiasm is contagious, and I love that you aren’t jaded by spending so much time fishing. Makes me wish I had more time to spend on trips too.
Just wow. I loved this. I watch Addicted's Alaskan videos too, but this one really struck a poignant note. Being from NW MI myself, I too have always wanted to do a trip just like that. When you teared up, I did too. I hope I can visit Alaska and go fishing within the next few years. I'm so happy for you.
I just love your enthusiasm over every fish you hook big or small that's what it's all about. Love you channel and all your content. You are living a dream. I hope someday I will make it to Alaska as well. Trip of a lifetime.
I am so happy for you and your buddies. All my life I have wanted to go to Alaska. I couldn’t wait to watch this video. Thank you very much for sharing.
New subscriber. Looking forward to your channel and journey. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻
Look like a awesome trip! Can't wait to finally go there August 4 for 10 days. We have a bunch of charters lined out. The only difference is my wife and I are 60. Really enjoy the videos you put out , your always are exciting and having a great experience.
@djfglobal3377 It rained every day and only the kayaking trip was canceled because of unsafe conditions. BUT my wife and I had the time of our lives, we caught lots of Halibut, Cod and Sockeye Salmon. We are already planning on going back in about 3 years!
Great video. I’m originally from Gaylord, now live in Eagle River Alaska. We do Yakutat every spring, it’s an awesome place to start the spring-summer fishing season. We always stay at Leonard’s Landing so I could really relate to the video. I love your Lake Superior fishing episodes as well did live in Gwinn in the Yoop for six years and love the Yooper land…and pasties. I will be back this August, staying on the Ausable River in Frederic, definitely bringing the fly rod. We always have space during our Yakutat trips if you want to jump in, you’re always welcome. Great video and awesome channel, keep it up👍🏼…BOBBER DOWN!!!!!
Omg how did this not pop up on my feed! I searched you out because I ain’t seen nothing in a minute. 3 minutes in and I am super excited! True story, I did this same trip 3 years ago and I think we stayed in the same exact duplex cabin. ❤❤❤❤❤❤. I am going back in 25!!!
Truly thank you for taking us on your life changing adventure! You personify passion, fun and adventure! Feels like we’re right there with ya. You took it all the way down to the bittersweet end. That was awesome. It’s so hard to hang it up and leave the river. Damn can I relate. Good shit brother!
Great video Kyle. Having lived in Alaska three times and back there numerous times😅 fishing. I can see how you can get teary eyed on leaving. You can take the man out of Alaska but you can’t take Alaska out of the man.
I feel you man! Alaska has always been my dream and I finally made it happen last fall. I tear up still just thinking about it. It is truly an awesome and breathtaking place. Keep up the great content and tight lines man!
AK is addictive to the right person. I first went as a visit in 1997. There's a group of people (now old friends) from all over north america up there every year who make it an annual trip. I was on a flight out of ANC to SEA this weekend and the couple in front of me were up for the first time, they mentioned the places they visited, and they're already planning their next visit. ...maybe I'll run into you one day. There's another YT guy (Mav from MN) who went to AK for the first time a bunch of years ago with another bunch to make a video and he seems to go up there at least once a year on his own channel.
Kyle I've watched many videos about fishing in Alaska and this is by far the best and most realistic, keep on making it real! Too bad your best friend Oliver wasn't there.
Kyle that was an awesome trip!! I went 2 years ago in May, did the same fishing you and your friends did. Salmon and halibut. BTW I cried when I got on the plane 😂
Love you're adventures! Would you please consider a sister channel that goes through the setups you use and how to use them? Really looking for that and looking forward to your next adventure !
I love Alaska SO MUCH!! Been there 2ce but next time ill be doing more fishing for sure! Loving your videos today. Glad i found you. Your excitement is even more than mine hahaha ❤
Awesome video. Alaska is on that next level. Been there twice ,fishing for Reds. 100 fish days were the norm. Yes we released all but 5 per day. Dolly varden are excellent table fare, even though the ones we caught had a light orange/gray hue to them . We caught ours in the Kenai river. Sure would like to know where you were fishing.
Heard it texture like chicken taste like the best fish ever! I’ve had a cold piece my buddy brought from his family camping trip that was good! But I’d love to try it fresh!
What a awesome adventure what a great time thanks for sharing with us on your adventures did you guys carry a pistol while you were walking in the bush thanks again
Hey Kyle James Williams here fort Worth Texas I have had a lot of adventures here in North Central Texas. Striped bass channel cat Flathead blue cat black bass and brim like you wouldn't believe, deer and hog hunting in turkey hunting, but I've always wanted to go to the north woods. I have so many questions. What type of wading gear do you use? What are your rates for your guide service? I have family in Milwaukee. I would very much like to meet you I have a lot of stories and experiences to share I would like to meet you, Kurt and Casey I don't have any friends anymore fishing and hunting and adventure Friends. I really miss it and the camaraderie you sound and look like my kind of people thanks for sharing your experiences
Hey I'm in northern Michigan I saw a couple of your videos one in particular where you went down the Manistee River. I was wondering if there's an app or how you figured out where you could port or camp at off the rivers because I can't find the information online anywhere and I'd hate to just keep going down the river until I find a place to sleep LOL if you could help me out that would be cool. Thanks in advance!
Just some constructive criticism…. You keep getting your tenses mixed up. Become vs. became. Have become is the present perfect tense. Became is the past tense. In terms of formal grammar, 'have become' is a present perfect tense While Becoming is in the Present particle; example : catching steelheads are becoming less frequent. I hope that helps you understand.

Why not 3 weeks? You’ll be retired!!!
June/July is the best time to come.
Don’t wait.
I just got caught up and then you blessed us with a new video!
Thank you for bringing Michigan to me for the last few years while I haven't been able to make it back home -- your videos are the next best thing!
Hope you had fun in Alaska!
Your love for nature is evident in every frame. 🍃
Thanks Kyle!! Great trip!! Appreciate you taking us along!!!

Maybe someday I’ll make it up there. Awesome video man!
I went when I was 47 for the first time. I’ll be back this spring at 50! I can see atleast a dozen trips before my desth

I have buddies that go to Alaska every 3 years. They been doing it for 20 years. They can't hardly wait to go back when they get home.
Great video, good time with friends....only negative, no Oliver!
dude cryin chrome tears of joy.. love your program. rage on
Awesome adventure!!! Glad that you made the opportunity happen!!!
What an awesome trip you had Kyle. Going to Alaska for the first time definitely changed my life. It’s another world for avid outdoorsman up there.
DUDE!!! You’re the man!!!! Can’t wait to watch this!!!
So much joy in this video! Cheers man for getting to experience your dream!

You’re the best outdoors show on TH-cam! ❤
Seeing how everyone else views my home makes me feel so grateful to live where I live🎣🤝
Your positivity is contagious, another great video!
I just love your enthusiasm over every fish you hook big or small that's what it's all about. Love you channel and all your content. You are living a dream. I hope someday I will make it to Alaska as well. Trip of a lifetime.
Welcome to Yakutat!! hope you enjoyed the views of the highest costal mountain range in the world! (St. Elias range)
12:42 random clip slapping the fish over the head with a paddle has me dying 🤣
I am so happy for you and your buddies. All my life I have wanted to go to Alaska. I couldn’t wait to watch this video. Thank you very much for sharing.

Those Halibut looked huge, had to be a blast catching them.
Beautiful Steelhead there in Alaska! Thanks for sharing your trip with us ❤

Hey Kyle James Williams here fort Worth Texas I have had a lot of adventures here in North Central Texas. Striped bass channel cat Flathead blue cat black bass and brim like you wouldn't believe, deer and hog hunting in turkey hunting, but I've always wanted to go to the north woods. I have so many questions. What type of wading gear do you use? What are your rates for your guide service? I have family in Milwaukee. I would very much like to meet you I have a lot of stories and experiences to share I would like to meet you, Kurt and Casey I don't have any friends anymore fishing and hunting and adventure Friends. I really miss it and the camaraderie you sound and look like my kind of people thanks for sharing your experiences
Let’s go!!!
Hey I'm in northern Michigan I saw a couple of your videos one in particular where you went down the Manistee River. I was wondering if there's an app or how you figured out where you could port or camp at off the rivers because I can't find the information online anywhere and I'd hate to just keep going down the river until I find a place to sleep LOL if you could help me out that would be cool. Thanks in advance!
What lodge did you stay at and rent the drift boats from?
Lenard’s landing
Also there is glacier bay and yakutat lodge all great companies
When I went the Dolly's were so full of Steelhead eggs they were literally puking them up when you caught them.
Nice
Maybe fish the Boardman for some nice Brooke's
Could you give me a mine's bar and put this on tv I'll be the happiest guy on earth.
Hi, love your show, but I don't understand why you aren't keeping those steelhead, at least 2?
I’ve been dying for a video!! Is this the part of Alaska you used to guide in?
Looks like Yakutat
Just some constructive criticism…. You keep getting your tenses mixed up. Become vs. became.
Have become is the present perfect tense. Became is the past tense. In terms of formal grammar, 'have become' is a present perfect tense While Becoming is in the Present particle; example : catching steelheads are becoming less frequent. I hope that helps you understand.
I was wondering where you have been
What clear 8 gr float are you using
Good move, lower river less crowded there.tawas whitey guy

I thought Gabe had a mullet? Did he get a haircut or something?

Great lakes rainbow are fun but nothing compares to Ocean run steelhead!!!
I plan to build a huge home in Alaska this Year
