I've been putting trips like this off for too many years. At almost 59 now, i have no excuses anymore. Time to start living! Thanks for sharing your trip and motivating!

I'm originally from Munising> I go back up north for a few weeks every fall, but now I live in Florida. I'm 80 and have been trying to get my wife to move back for 30 years. If you are an adventure-loving Michigander don't fall for the "Winters are too cold B.S" It's not a wise trade-off for 100-degree summers with 100% humidity and storms that blow your house away. I love the Lake Superior surf fishing videos. I'm an avid fisherman and I don't recall anyone fishing from Superior's shore other than myself 40 years ago. Manistee is my second choice for a place to live and play in Michigan. That area is possibly the best place to raise a family and build a life in Michigan. I'd love to see a complete float of the Escanaba or the Tahquamenon rivers. They both traverse through some beautiful country and are excellent fishing. Your enthusiasm and practical bush knowledge are informative, infectious, and light-hearted, however; I can't watch your videos before meals. I tend to take your enthusiasm to the table. Thanks for the seat in the canoe and by the fireside.

28:55 thats an amazing quote. "The Bacon is so crispy, the coffee is hot, life is good:

Oliver's cameraman... the only guy on RU-vid who's got a better woohoo than NorthwWest Fishing Secrets' Lief.

That was well done. Best drone shot ever with the fire smoke into the fog. Any michigam adventure is best.

That was unreal. There probably aren’t too many people who can say they’ve done that trip! ❤

6 day adventure on Manistee River amazing Kyle with Oliver so cool! Thanks for all that u do in making these videos!

Look forward to your videos every week.. great stuff.. I’m a northern Michigan native living in WV, PA for the last 15 years. Don’t get to get back much, so you’re adventures take me back to when I was your age.. good job man! Oliver is awesome!

That dog lives a better life than a lot of humans I know....keep it up!!

11:18, Love your excitement and enthusiasm. All my fishing buddies do is complain and vent testosterone.

You one up-ed me Kyle A little over 50 years ago I did about the same trip. Only I started at Smiths landing just north of Lake city and took two weeks. It was one of my greatest adventures and my 16th birthday gift to myself. You are correct though, the Manistee is a beautiful river. Great job with the video, I loved every minute of it, thanks for the trip down memory lane. P.S. If you ever want to take that trip again and don't mind babysitting an old man reach out to me. LOL

So excited to watch this! Your videos help take me back to growing up in northern Michigan. Thanks for what you do, Kyle!

Damn dude what a trip ! Glad to see they raised the bridge for you in Manistee !!! Super cool Kyle keep up the adventures.

Anything you and Oliver attempt makes for an awesome adventure!!!❤

You had to be sore as hell after that float.I know I would of beenGreat video as always.keep up the good work man.

Omgeezy, all time favorite! Best RU-vid channel by a million plus miles

The scenery at 38:10 seriously took my breath away. Amazing video🎉🎉

What an adventure you had! I watched the whole thing and am amazed not only with the adventure, but with the amount of planning you had to do to make this a reality. I'm glad your arm is better. I really love all of your videos, so just keep doing what brings you joy!

you are one of a kind man! Great job.

Wow what an accomplishment!! My folks have a place on Tippy Dam Rd right by the dam, I have fished up and down that river from Tippy to the mouth in my river boat but have never considered floating the whole stretch.. I don't think most people understand how far that is and that was only a 1/4 of your trip!!! Hats off to you brother.. Drone footage rising above the fog was truly the best shot I think I've seen!! Thank you for sharing..

Every time you make me nuts you are leaving the life bud Keep them coming 😂

I can't believe we got to do that with you! Thank you so much! Amazing!!

This is truly inspirational and what life is all about. I hope to do this someday soon. Once my little one gets a bit older

WOW that was such a awesome adventure love watching your videos there no pampering it's all the real deal keep them coming I'm always looking and waiting for them. Useing muscles you normally don't use I'll bet they were hurting.

Love your videos! I Michigan born and raised and love your excitement for the outdoors here !

Amazing and inspiring. So happy you got to cross this off the list.

This was another great adventure trip! My favorite style of fishing is adventure fishing and most of your videos are absolutely that. The camping, fishing and exploring is what I love to do and you have the best channel in Michigan if not the country. Keep doing what you do bro!

I love your energy. This makes me want to hit the outdoors for some real r&r

Wow what a trip enjoyed watching every minute of it.

Kyle! It was so exciting you did this! I have fished from ccc to 131 for 45 plus years. I have been trying to purchase something in that stretch for many years, its tough. I can't believe I haven't run into you in Fife area. You do great work, keep it up, might hire you someday.

A Klassic Kyle adventure! Loved every moment! One of my favorite episodes!

Love your enthusiasm! Great trip and video!

That feeling of knowing theres a lone mosquito in your room/tent waiting to feast on you as you sleep. Ahhh!

Awesome video! I love the Manistee River, one of my favorites to fish. The portage at Tippy is rough. But, at least it doesn’t involve the stairs from hell 😂

Wow, what an adventure! Well done!

IMO this is one of your best... You put out some great videos, for whatever reason this one just resonated.

Let's Goooooo!!!! I don't think I could ever leave Michigan.

If you find a flat rock you can rub the top of a can back and forth on it and it should wear down the steel so the lid can be popped off…love the videos..rock on brother!

Just awesome

Awesome video!!!, I went "swimming" twice in the Manistee, once with my g/f, and once with the wife, and yes after being told NOT TO GRAB THE TREES!!!!!......great job and thanks, be safe...

Great video kyle!! I appreciate the hard work involved.

Epic trip dude! Love it man!

@ 1:08 *pulls out a few sticks of TNT...* Great adventure as always. I've been camping on the backwaters of Tippy since the late 70's and absolutely love that area.

You do such a great job!

Excellent video brother!👏🏻 I loved every second of it! I myself would love to start doing more of this! I just filmed a trip recently on my kayak and it’s definitely a lot of work! You conquered that river like a champ!😁I also love the excitement with the trout I am the same way! Great video and I can’t wait for the next! Thank you for taking us along!🛶👍🏻

this really feels like home even when I’m 2000 miles away from Michigan now

Awesome drone footage!!

the deer were snorting at you great video!

Great video!! Very well done man!!

Great video bud!!👍😁

What a great video. ❤

love the video! i moved to michigan not too long ago and it’s awesome to see the cool adventures you can go on. can’t wait to get out there myself

loved it great vid

Most folks teach their dogs to sit, stay, or fetch. You; "Stay in the boat" ! Epic !

Great vid.

Hodenpyle has lots of smallmouth, lots of walleye, and more snags than any other place in the world. Put a p-38 on your keychain, and you'll always have a can opener.

That was a awesome video i would love to see you guys do that again in the winter doing some deer hunting camping and fishing

I hear you Bro when your dog Oliver runs after a herd of deer. That kinda of thing scares the shit out of me. Heart is pumping.

What an awesome adventure!! I totally love trips like that and I thought 32 km of canoeing and fishing was a big day you made it look easy !! Personally all ur videos are awesome keep on Keeping on !!cheers

Very awesome video I enjoy your videos I've never fished Manistee river always the pm
