Brutal! No way that fish survived. Played forever than taken into the boat like that. No recovery, It didn’t swim off. Mike knows better fish handling than that… this was super sad to watch.
Love watching your channel this was a great episode. That tyee was a beauty. You guys seem like it would be fun to go fishing with. That conversation corner was great something really needs to be done. I would love to get myself and my family seal meat if they ever do culling.
Great Conservation Corner on Pinniped management. We need action on this ASAP. It blows my mind how slow the government is dragging their hands on this issue.
Rivers Inlet is a spectacular place to fish and enjoy the beautiful scenery. I was fortunate to start fishing there in the late nineties as well as working at a lodge for 8 years. Really appreciate your video's Mike and congratulation on your Tyee.
That’s awesome video thanks for sharing Me and my buddy were just there in June of this year we had a great time this place is my next fishing spot Oli Resort is awesome they now where to get you the fish We got our limits of salmon ,halibut,lings, and sea bass I loved it there I will make another trip there in the next few years Thanks again for sharing your video it brought back memories from being there
Great episode, came across your channel by chance, really great to see Sid, absolutely love Duncanby and all the staff at the lodge. Can’t wait to get back there and they do so much good work with the hatchery.
I agree with everyone else. No real visual as to how this works, just words. Slow motion didn't show anything. This cable looks much thicker than my stainless cable.
I've caught brood stock for a few hatcheries and have some tips for you; use heavier gear so you can get the fish in quickly, don't handle the fish so much. The survival rates go down drastically if you exhaust the fish by playing them for a long time on light gear, and they can be prone to fungal infections when you damage their slime coat by unnecessarily handling them to display for the camera. Also, get the hooks out quickly and get them in a live tank, don't hold them up in the air for minutes at a time. Also, don't use bait, it causes a lot more aggressive attacks and you get hooked deeper quite often, leading to damage to the gills which will of course kill the fish or severely injure them, possibly causing them to expire before harvesting roe/milt. So, other than doing literally everything wrong, good job!
I don't really believe this rule of thumb. The blowback is highly dependent on depth, so I could troll at 8 knots at a depth of 5 feet and have a 45 degree angle, or 0.5 knots and a depth of 300 feet and have the same angle. it also depends on the terminal gear; if I have a full size flasher, the blowback is a lot different from trolling with no flasher, no dodger and using a small anchovy. Also, is that with a 6 pound ball, or 20? What kind of speed will you be at with this rule if you're using a 20 pound ball, no flasher or dodger and a small lure and fishing a depth of 15 feet, say a bucktail or streamer? That's enough reasons there I think to say that this rule has more exceptions than actual applications.
It truly is amazing seeing these kids come out of their shells and enjoy an activity together! We will be back up filming the 3rd Annual Event this Summer!
Biggest fish I ever had hooked was with my step brother. Coached in on him on how to net in advance. Fricking idiot, had the fish in the net then because it was too heavy to scoop tried to use the side of the boat to pry, of course the handle bent, net back in the water. Fish says good bye, barely spoken to the guy since. This was at Hakia Pass
Hey Mike, I know I'm jumping the gun here, but I thought I would post about your Season 14 Recap Show I just on on CHEK TV this past weekend. It was great to see the highlights of the year (even though I watched every one on CHEK before). My absolute favorite fish, and maybe my favorite of all the fish I've seen on your shows, is the River's Inlet Head Submarine Tyee! What an incredible fight, especially it zooming about at the Surface. Just amazing. Perhaps when (if?) it gets posted here on RU-vid, I'll remember to show it to my fishing Buddies. Thanks for the show!
Wasn't that an epic fish!? Thanks so much for sharing and tuning in all season! We are already underway with Season 15 with our crew down in La Paz!! Season 14 will be released on here in a few months! Stay tuned and thanks again for sharing!
Hey Mike. Love your show and spent the weekend watching all of the Nootka episodes. We went up last summer and had a blast in mid-August. We are going up a couple of weeks earlier and am wondering if you could share some advice and spots to try. We fished out front of the Moutcha Bay lodge and found lots of fish but I suspect that they may not be in the bay in similar numbers a bit earlier in the season. Where would you start in the last week of July? Also, if I wanted (and I do) want to catch some lings, rocks, and maybe some butts, where would you suggest I look. Are there decent bottom fishing spots inside the bay so that we could stay out of the big water if the weather kicks up? You could pm me if you would rather not share all this intel with the world. Mahalo and looking forward to the next season - david
Hello David. At that time of year you might see fish at camel rock but I would fish the light house and the bay around to the right of it As far as bottom fishing I don’t have any spots Sam who was fishing with us took us out offshore I imagine most inside spots get hammered hard. Hope this helps a little. Ps try some green anchovies they really do work
It truly is an amazing spot and great for families!! Mike took all 3 of his kids up this passed season, episodes will air in early Feb! Thanks for your support!
Ive done a lot of salmon fishing this year catching them daily fishing from shore. Before I go out I make sure to bring a brand new microfiber cloth and some cotton gloves. Ive also found that getting the barb off my hook works so much better then having the barb on. So when I catch a salmon I take my microfiber cloth and get it wet and place the cloth over the head covering the eyes and the fish calms right down and I'm able to extract the hook without even taking the fish out of the water most of the time, turning the fish around and taking the cloth off and a couple of seconds later it takes off. Success!
Any time there are kokanee to be caught that's my target...l still get lakers as bycatches on kokanee gear....the ones under the schools hunting and aggressive.....ive got 10,acres on Bridge lake
This makes me want to get my 12' aluminum transom done and try for some rainbows on the fly in a couple mountain lakes before the rain hits the island this year. Does look like a really nice way to spend a weekend. Great video as always, loved the gear talk section.
I have used the electric and 1050 riggers for many years. ru-vid.comUgkxbjBedIFSQ6Y6rp8DrCC_aoWMZI8GUpmH I bought these lake trollers for my 15’ Grumman sport boat and they worked almost perfectly for fishing lake trout. The only negative is that they seemed sticky on the retrieval, so I removed the spool and greased the underside of the stainless steel plate with some lip balm (the only thing I could think to use that I had on the boat with me). Then they worked much more smoothly. I don’t recommend using these down riggers if you’re planning on fishing deeper than 50’ as you’ll spend more time cranking than you will fishing.
Wow just seeing this out of the box ru-vid.comUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.
