Very much appreciated! I usually get sick of hearing my gums flappin' by the time I'm done editing so I'll cut it all and just have mostly ASMR lol I have a few videos in mind once this heat packs off. 🤙🏼
Awesome video Matt, great information and clearly explaned , wish I was close to tag along. Good luck on Saturday and Tight Lines Cod tight not shark tight 😅
Hey Mike, I figured it arrived with no problem as I never heard from you since. Good ol' Canada Post. That's long lost now. I'll do up another package and get it out to you. I'll see about adding a tracking # this time lol
@@canoeanddogexplorers Thanks Matt. Here’s my address again if you need it. Michael Favia 7651 north Waukegan road Niles Illinois 60714. If you ever travel to the Chicago area, hit me up. I’ll take you out for one of Chicago’s finest. Deep dish pizza 🍕. If you have any stickers that you can spare, I’ll rock those on my five gallon fishing 🎣 bucket. Thanks Matt. Would really like to see more of your videos. Thanks again and we’ll see you on the next episode. ATB Mike
Really great lesson! I am sure your fishing outing will be a success! Hopefully you are able to film some of it. I think it would be a good video to watch!
Thank you, but it did cut my finger. It was braided line and it sliced right through 3 layers of skin and bled pretty bad. The line was only wrapped once so I was lucky. Had it been wrapped even twice then I 100% would have lost my finger. I've never been one to panic in any situation, and that's a good thing when you're doing foolish things like this! Lol 🤙🏼
Yeah, I read the same articles, but there's an endless amount of links and federal documents online that show them at 12' and possibly bigger. It surfaced just 15 - 20 feet away from us(gopro footage is horrible for gauging distance) so we could see that the dorsal fin and tail were 6-7 feet apart and with the dorsal fin being ever so slightly forward of center, that definitely puts it at 12', if not more. Scott(the guy who hooked it) worked on fishing boats for years and has seen ~ hundreds of porbeagles pulled up onto the deck so that plus looking at the shape of the dorsal fin we figured it was a Porbeagle. I'm not too upset that it didn't come closer for us to be 100% sure though lol
after doing this for 18 years, this one day I will not forget, part of the reason we do it. 2nd or 3rd most memorable kayaks, that laugh is also up there..lol kayak on
Same reason I carried an almost 3 lt stainless steel pot instead of 500 ml titanium pot and a camera to film it all because I had it and wanted to try it out. I like to practice with as many options as are available. 🤙🏼

Hey Quenton, sorry that I'm only now seeing this comment, but for some reason I never received a notification that you posted. I appreciate that very much and I'd be happy to send you out some stickers. 🤙🏻🧡
I've been troutin' for 40 years but only the last 5 or so years have I been primarily using the fly rod. It's a 4wt so even the small ones feel like a good little fight lol
Thanks very much! The real fishing trip is next week! I'm doing an extended version of a trip I done this time 2 years ago. I have a video on it called Into the Wilderness. This time I'm going to be focused on fishing.
I've definitely had worse lol To make the best of it, before I even started fishing I went to the spot(in the woods) where I lost the foot from my camp chair while I was ice fishing and I found it, and I also found a $50 sit pad not far from there so I cleaned up before I even started catching! 🤙🏻
Babbling on again.. (-: About a decade ago I ran across another live working blacksmith at a reenactment show/actors campout. He sold me a Pigtail hook of 12"+ length, which works perfect for my 3 piece tripod rod using one section/leg. Height adjustment in a jiffy at the upright. ~ Since it looks like you canoe camp often I thought the simple item, although wrought iron-esque would do you well with slightly heavy gear. ~ Any branch of proper dia. stuck to earth yer done, with ez adjustable. Keep your eyes open for one. (-:
I generally only use this method in winter as the snow obviously offers practically limitless options for anchor points. I'll often times make a tripod this time of year and carve a little pot hook so then I can adjust the height to whatever works for what I'm doing.
Looks like a 14cm Zebra Billy with modded clips. I have one and wanted to steam in it without drilling holes in the bowl as some did. ~ I found that a 5" folding/collapsible as butterfly wings basket fits inside and opens when inside just enough for steamer use. Not much space below the basket for much water, but just enough before all boiled off, and I grabbed a SS plain Jane cookie cutter (tall as can find round) to sit below the basket giving just a smidge height for more water. ~ Water being a commodity it steams with very little water. It steams up full load load veggies just fine. I've not tried fish yet, but some steam their fishys vs oil 'n such. (can river water be used for steaming without being treated? ~ there's a plus) ~~ Both steamer basket with cookie cutter nested in basket nests inside the Billy, wrapped in paper towel for no rattle. (dew rag prolly betta) Stainless steel steamer baskets vary in size and not costly. Aim for one with tallest legs that can find. My 5" will expand to 9 or 10" with center post for lifting for other pots/pan use. ~ Cookie cutter? ha, there's one in case 1day you try biscuits ay? Before use I took a hair blow dryer to the huge Zebra sticker and it peeled right off. Someday it'll be a pain I thought. If Zebra tac welded a pivoting ring on the side for a lift aid it would be perfect.
It is the 14 cm but the clips are factory, and they're a game changer! Great for pouring water when it's too hot to touch once they're clipped onto the handle, and they're the only way that the inverted oven will work. I don't bother with steaming anything while I'm camping, so I haven't used it for that or researched any mods to make that more practical. And biscuits are on the list! Lol
Yeah it's a shame that was approved. I remember the first time we portaged into Old Sea from Peak Pond and came across that road. This was before it was shown on Google Maps so to say that I was beyond shocked is an understatement.
I can appreciate that and I completely understand. The main reason is the audio quality of the GoPro cameras that I'm using lately. I have no shortage of ideas for videos that will contain plenty of commentary, a lot of which are going to be gear review and fun challenge videos, and shout-out videos, but I have to get a few things figured out first, so bear with me. I appreciate your support!
Another great video my friend , so relaxing I feel like I was right there listening to the padle stroke and the water go by. Thanks for taking us along
Yeah I don't mind the rain. At least I had enough Gore-tex to keep it off me. I went back in a few days later and didn't have any rain gear and it turned out the forecast wasn't very accurate so it was a less than comfortable paddle out lol That combo is definitely pretty neat for having at camp.
