This is awesome!! Been really liking your videos. Just started my channel maybe we could do a collaborative trip sometime. Keep up the good adventures my friend
Love your part of the world and this video made me want to explore more. I try to get down as often as possible. I'm in BC Canada about 2.5 hours straight north of Spokane. It seems like each time I go down I try to scout out new little creeks and streams. Love fishing east and north of CDA. Hope to run into you on a stream someday. Keep fishing and filming!
@@thegrinderdude5921 agreed 👍 I’m very fortunate to live where I do. Appreciate the kind words, BC Canada is also very beautiful. Been thinking about venturing that way someday.
I’ve had a few people tell me that, not sure what’s up with that honestly. If you turn on the notification bell it might help. I appreciate the support buddy.
@@Antler_addict yeah not sure honestly, the entire algorithm is a mystery. I just do what I enjoy, hopefully motivate and inspire a few people to do the same.
I appreciate you sharing your fishing... Thanks for that. I do think you can do this without hot spotting and naming places, water bodies, and fisheries. Takes the pressure off many spots that since COVID + YT are becoming overrun... it also puts the fun back in outdoor life - sense of discovery and even solitude - which used to be the original joy of outdoor pursuits and fishing... just exploring on your own and finding cool spots - not sitting on the couch looking at screens, and asking someone to hand stuff to you. Again, I appreciate that you enjoy the outdoors, just asking you to modify and reduce your impact. Thanks.
Valid point, appreciate the kind yet constructive feedback. I’ve had a few people tell me that, I’ve adjusted in my following videos. I do my best not to hot spot less know spots.
@@NWoutdoorsadventures Oh absolutely true… It’s easy for me to sit back here and make comments like that when I’ve done even more insane things out on the river, flyfishing and stuff like that wound up in the ER etc. it proves you were there :-)
@@nonewherelistens1906 it’s a complicated question yes and no. Between Idaho border and Spokane the fish are naturally spawned no stocking. Those fish are believed to be descendants of steelhead. Lower Spokane I believe have had some stocking (lake Spokane) in 1980s. I would have to research some online sources to give exact evidence based answers. To the best of my knowledge all fish in the Spokane river current undergo natural spawning process, that’s why they close it in the spring.
Isn’t it great to watch a first fish on the fly? I used to drive by the Spokane and think I need to get into fly fishing. Started 3 years ago, my home river is also “urban”, trash/meth etc.. but you can still find some pretty private beautiful places.
Got a review of that raft/setup?! I'm *shopping* right now. Just trying to think of brands, quality, durability, etc... I mostly ( 99%) fish alone so I wonder how the whole shuttle thing works. How/where to launch, get back to the launch, get back to my pickup... all that! haha
Excellent job guys, I was out on the River probably at the same time just further down on Long Lake. Beautiful Redbands and fish handling technique. I’d love to learn how to fly fish, I’m probably on the same level as Samong currently. I have a tenkara rod that I mess around with however. Love the content and hope to see you on the water sometime!
@@owe89us Please say hi if you see me! Hey we all started in the same keep getting after it man. Tankaras are great 👍. You can do practically anything I do with those rods when it comes to dry flies.
@@NWoutdoorsadventures respect the reply and glad you had a great day. Just was shocked at that launch....maybe you did it that way for clicks and comments so well played
Rad. I’ve been in Spokane five years now, still haven’t floated the river but I’ve always wanted to catch a red band. Do you guide at all? My father in law says he wants to learn to fly fish.
@@kristoffernewsom9954 I don’t guide personally, reach out to Silver bow fly shop here in Spokane. They provide great guided trips on the Spokane river.
@@NWoutdoorsadventures That's too awesome. I've got the Klamath about 30 min away, but that's in a holding pattern as it recovers from dam removal. Fingers crossed it will be good this winter
