They were so sweet. His little chuckle was adorable. I so wish Paige had landed that big one. They must've really appreciated you. You have such a way with people. 😊
Awesome hunting Awesome hunting video , really really American style of living , just like my father taught me!!! Excellent video brother man excellent hunting
Stalking is hard work, especially tracking mature buck. Getting one miles from your truck, ugh! Going to your hunting area well in advance to locate trails the deer move on. Post in different locations along these trails. Tree stand is the best.
Hi, beautiful video you have here! Thanks for sharing! Do you think this section of Machias is runnable in early July? Or the water level is expected to be extremely low?
Thanks, another enjoyable video, my family has had a couple of moose camps at that put in, I always wondered what that stream looked like. Great drone footage too.
Nice to see you two get away for a little trip together. A mutual friend and I, who cut some trees for us, were just talking about you guys a couple weeks ago. It seems you really are as nice as you appear to be. Loved the video as usual. 😊
One never really knows when the pole will be flubbed. and it happens so fast and often not in the easiest places. Looks like water levels up that way are on their way down, extended weather shows a bit of rain and we need it! I'm doing a couple days on Old Stream just east of the Machias this weekend, taking out at Smith landing. Fun to think I could go all the way and with a bit of tidal water and some up stream travel paddle all the way back home as well. but work gets in the way.
@@feenerproductions The top end was some nice poling water, a couple ledge drops we lined both, but the trees in the river was over board due to the multiple big blows we had this past winter. and to top it off the fish expert guys have been dumping trees into the river for fish habitat. Two sections of that one older that is blown out and an easy run but the other one was a real mess close to 75 yards long and a dozen trees dropped per side, they chopped the roots and pulled them over leaving the remaining roots an an anchor. I'm not fully supportive of this practice as it greatly reduced the canopy over the river from the tree crowns that are near touching from each side, these were large decent spruce and pine trees couple of the pine with 24" butts. The log jams were tough, but it was a sweet trip, the last portion near 10 miles was flat water. Kind of like a small Machias.
@@downeastprimitiveskills7688 Thanks for sharing that. I've seen that habitat practice on the upper Narraguagus as well, must've been tough at times. I wonder when the last time someone's done that trip? Thanks again for the info.
I was scheduled to start a trip on the St John from Fifth pond next weekend but the flow rates are making it hardly likely. I may pivot into the Allagash instead.
skip that clogged 5th st.john steam and you'll save a lot of energy and time in there. start at baker unless you are going to cut all the fresh blowdowns.
@@feenerproductions Just got off river today. We started on Baker Lake on Saturday. Awesome trip but the water was on the low side. The royalex on my canoe is showing a lot more white than I remember.
Arms must be on fire after the first mile out. My wife and I raced Maine white water before kids, now my oldest it is hitting race ready age so maybe we will be out for the Kiwanis River Race up in Dover-Foxcroft.
I clearly remember leading my first trip on the St John in the early 80’s and hearing about the Mad Poler RC. Been following his trail ever since in Maine, the Southwest and on the Soper River on Baffin Island. Always great to catch up with him from time to time. He’s an Icon!
