Absolutely LOVE your entheusiasm, bro!!! And I find you to be VERY informative. Haven't been fishing since I was a kid; and haven't been but a few times (I can count those experiences on one hand). But watching you and others here on YT makes me want to go fishing again! I've also never caught anything as big as what you've been catching... with the exception of the pike - caught ONE on Lake Ontario when I was 12 or 13 years old. I hope the Lord allows me at least one opportunity to go fishing [SUCCESSFULLY] again before I leave this world.
Another awesome day, this time lake trout... Yes I Know you wish you could have caught more, thankful you did catch some and wow what beautiful colors.. keep the great videos coming..
Sat down to take 5 at work and was greeted with this Shicky video… always wanted to say that😂 I truthfully enjoy your videos man and I’m real excited to see some hard water stuff soon!
Hey that Lund boat in the intro looks awfully familiar! Such a fun place to be and the fishing is incredible. Already waiting for the next trip back up there to Kenanow
Awesome video!! How deep are you focusing and what type of structure during the prespawn? I'm fishing Flathead lake Montana and having a tough time finding them.
Pretty fish, pretty lake, decent size, that looks like fun, Clayton. For me to fish lake trout I'd have to fish Lake Superior, and that's to big for me, or small lakes in the Boundary Waters canoe area where you can't get a boat like yours into. I have a similar Alumacraft but older. So I've never fished for them but I wish I could. I've got muskies, though, and that makes up for it.
This trip I was running 30lb braid and 20lb floro. On my big bait rods I was running 50lb and 50lb floro, you really have to match the lines to the lures you are using not so much the fish you are fishing for.
Id love fishing with you just to nerd out learning how to do all your filming and gear setup. One thing I started using was DaVinci Resolve to edit. Free but gave me what I needed to edit without the cost of Premier and still not looking like a middle school art project.
Hey Clayton! Saw on the live stream you are switching to a new craft next year 😃. Curious why move from the Alumacraft? Out of favor with it, to just looking for a change? We’re getting a competitor 185 in the spring. Always appreciate your input!
Few reasons I am switching, but I had wanted to get into a new boat this next year and the new 188T Delta from Starcraft is going to be a good boat for what I want to do. It is a lot like the 185 as well. You will like that boat, I have nothing against mine at all. But if its not too late I'd check out the 188T as well from Starcraft, you might be surprised :)
Another quality video, but what else would I expect from you? Question: I have noticed on most of your videos, when you hold up a bigger fish for the camera, you don’t often extend your fingers to cradle across the whole belly. What’s up? Are you hiding your hands so we can’t tell you are holding the fish three feet out in front of you? XD
As a guide, I have learnt how to hide your fingers for the best photo possible :) I also think my arms can only reach out about 2 feet, not 3 ;) Notice I also say fish sizes? I don't pretend they are bigger then they actually are :)
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors is middle water column is that a rule of thumb? There isn't much for lake trout in Alberta we have peerless lake, cold lake. A few mtn lakes with stoked lake trout and some lake way north without access. I uselly catch my Lakers in a mtn reservoir called Abraham lake it's the first dam on the the north Saskatchewan River vary close to banff national park. I noticed in the winter I uselly get me Lakers there in the middle of the column nothing big really biggest I've personally got there was 28 but is was actually in the river below the dam. Yes the north Saskatchewan river has some lake trout near nordegg.
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors but I have seen mid 30s caught in the lake just not by me. That lake is also bait banned do to the presence of bull trout which are protected in Alberta.
Every time you lean over the boat and I see your remotes dangling by that tinny ass thread if a string I worry it's going to break and fall to the depths
Hey Clayton Moose Jaw guy here! Love ur vids but there’s to much hum drum and yakking wish your vid were 5 mins of slaying vs 26 mins of fast fwrd. Love ya just saying guy not everyone has time for long vids so they skip ahead to the good parts anyway what do I know. Keep on keeping on Clayton you’re well On you’re way buddy and I wish I was in you’re boots! HAPPY catching FRIEND and thx for all the vid’s!
Thank you for your input, it's always appreciated. If I just did 5 mins of just fish catching and didn't take people along for the story I would have less followers. Most people want a story line and to be along for the ride. If you look around TH-cam you will see guys that make 5 minute videos end up having no following. Like I said it's much appreciated, and yes most of the time I feel like some of my videos are too long, but to be honest, my longer videos get more views than my shorter videos....
Well you know which works best guy. I love your content your a top notch fisherman and you always catch monster’s. GOOD LUCK on the lake and on YT. No disrespect intended, very humble and appreciative of your knowledge buddy and please keep the vids coming no matter how long✌️
Clayton Schick Outdoors, you’re constantly crushing by far the best fishing vids on TH-cam.
trying my best :) Appreciate the support!
That strike right at the boat was insane, great video! Can't wait for the underwater trout videos soon!
Cheers my friend!
I see “Clayton Schlick Lake Trout” video, instant LIKE before even watching it!
Thank you for sharing your adventure. The boat side strike was awesome.
Love your videos always makes me jealous watching you land some beautiful fish while i am stuck at work.
If you haven't set the hook on a rock, you ain't fishin' hard enough. I've spent my share of time hooked onto Canada!😆
HAH!! Right? Catching Canada :)

absolutely unreal, class act out of clay along with some beauty trout, looked like a good day of fishing
Was a fun day overall!
Another awesome day, this time lake trout... Yes I Know you wish you could have caught more, thankful you did catch some and wow what beautiful colors.. keep the great videos coming..
I couldn’t be happier to see lake trout videos start being posted again! Ice season is almost here☺️
Banger video. Thanks Clayton. Your content is really appreciated.
Thanks for watching man!!
Can't wait for your ice fishing season! Great work in open water my man! Awesome videos!
Won't be too long!!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors any specific species you are planning to target? I love your underwater pike and walleye videos!
@@peachypeaches62 Lots of Walleye and Pike. Underwater videos for sure!!
Sat down to take 5 at work and was greeted with this Shicky video… always wanted to say that😂 I truthfully enjoy your videos man and I’m real excited to see some hard water stuff soon!
Love it man!! Cheers to you!
Oh man! First those pike strikes at the boat now the lakers. Absolute 🔥🔥 the colours are amazing 👍👍
Boat side lakers are the best!
Man your videos are about as real as they get. Love them man
Try to keep it real my friend :)
Great video Clayton. Looking forward to the ice fishing videos. I know they will be stellar.
Beauty big laker Clayton. I know you said they keep getting bigger and I can't wait to see more
good stuff yet again my man
Great looking colored up fish ! That was a killer boatside strike .
Love seeing them smash right by the boat!
Another amazing video!!!!!!
Dang man what a Day !! Your 34 what’s a beautiful male funny when they are spawning they nip at the top fins like that ! Great job man!
Good stuff!! I can't believe how big their head's are!
Right? These lakers that were 33-34 had heads of 38" fish....
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors did your battery last the entire day..?
@@dalbert4991 Yup, I should do a test to see if I can get 2 days out of it :)
Great fishing videos, keep up the great work Clay. Cheers!
Thanks Clayton, for another great video! Appreciate it!
Thank you for watching man! Hope your summer went well!
Love the fall time spawn colours on those Lakers you were catching!! Oh how I miss catching Lake Trout!!
They are so deadly!
Looks like a great day bud. Really good footage.
Thanks dude!! cheers to you!
Hey that Lund boat in the intro looks awfully familiar! Such a fun place to be and the fishing is incredible. Already waiting for the next trip back up there to Kenanow
hahah!! Yup!! Cheers man!!
How come you weren't up yet Matt😁
@@randyclement2429 that was our Day 6 we were packing our stuff up so we could get in one last morning fish before we left 😂😂
Rock on Clayton.
Hello Clayton and thumbs UP !
Love your videos you have thought me a lot about ice fishing and regular walleye tight lines🙏
Glad I could help teach you some things! :)
Just took a break from work and book new Clayton vid. Day made.
Thanks Clay!!!
You bet! Cheers!
Awesome video!! How deep are you focusing and what type of structure during the prespawn? I'm fishing Flathead lake Montana and having a tough time finding them.
Love your channel brother
Appreciate that!
Another killer video......I do think we need more singing though.
HAH!!
Great Video!
What rod and reel combo is that? Thanks for the great videos.
This is just amazing. Thank you so much Clayton.
Of course! Thank you for watching!
Another great video. I think your weather is about to change. You know that white stuff.
Soon!!
Awesome video sure love my spot lock
Spot lock is so good!
YAY A NEW VIDEO!!! Do you think you will come to new hampshire at all?
Always wanted to see casting for lakers, gonna have to find some stocked lakes near me soon!
Yes! Go hammer them!
Pretty fish, pretty lake, decent size, that looks like fun, Clayton.
For me to fish lake trout I'd have to fish Lake Superior, and that's to big for me, or small lakes in the Boundary Waters canoe area where you can't get a boat like yours into. I have a similar Alumacraft but older. So I've never fished for them but I wish I could. I've got muskies, though, and that makes up for it.
Having Muskies close by would be amazing!!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors In my long winded way that was what I was trying to say about you having lake trout close. But I do like my muskies.
Lakers are so bad ass!
have you heard from aaron lately? if you do let him know i hope he’s holding up well. great video by the way. my favourite canadian fishing videos 🙂
Is there a reason you fish the 4 inch tickle tail on a regular knot and not a loop knot for more jigging action?
Awesome! The battery held up?
Sure did! One day I need to do a test and see how many days I get out of them.
Boat side strikes are money !!!!
I agree!
What is your line setup? Simular to your ice? 30lb braid to 30lb floro?
This trip I was running 30lb braid and 20lb floro. On my big bait rods I was running 50lb and 50lb floro, you really have to match the lines to the lures you are using not so much the fish you are fishing for.
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors thanks!

Wanted to mention never worry about the sun in the camera I would rather see a great fish in bad lighting than no fish in great lightening 😀😀😀
HAH!! True!
lets go !!!lakers

Fun
Very much so!
4 straight days of catsing and 27 trout caught. Biggest was 38.5" my arm was killing me by the 3rd day!
Dude, our stats are so close to the same!! 3.5 days for me 27 lakers, but biggest was 36.5" :)
I've got time booked a little earlier next year! I expect to see you up there, hopefully we get those cool Temps earlier.
Sangat keren mantap vidionya kawan seru mancingnya semoga sehat dan sukses
hmmmm Thanks ???

@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors Wasn’t accusing you of anything! Fair point to better pictures :)
Clayton if you where to troll what tactics would you use?
This time of year, I would troll pretty shallow 5-20 feet. Try to get the lure in the middle of the water column.

I love me some Lakers!!

haha :) It's a trusted lanyard :)
Always. ALWAYS. I am glad I am not the only one.
1st baby!! 👊🏼👊🏼
quench that first brother!
um might want to look again lol
