Alex and I travel to the St. Regis Wilderness Canoe Area in the Adirondacks of New York. We hit the land and water trails as hard as we could in the face of long portages, wind, rain and mosquitoes and had a terrific time over four days. Five species of fish were caught and good food was cooked over the campfire!

Learn how to handle fish if you're going to release them. Chances of fish surviving when you run your fingers up through their gills is pretty slim.

@NatureIntoAction 4 года назад

@@phildlight thx for watching Philip. Right on, we are getting better every chance.

@lawrencenashett4577 3 года назад

That was a typo. Have fished. Haven't fished that particular pond.

@philbrown7847 3 года назад

What kind of fishing tackle is good to use there? I enjoyed watching the video.

@NatureIntoAction 3 года назад

I like silver lures like pheobes, swiss swings, roostertails. Sometimes it's more about placement, water column and then speed if trolling. A little worm also helps entice a bite from a sedentery trout. Good luck, keep your line wet and you'll find em.

@LostBoysMotorsports 2 года назад

What size cold handle skillet do you use? That looks to be perfect for a little trout dinner

@NatureIntoAction 2 года назад

8". Hard to beat it.

Just re watched this video, I think I need to do a trip up in that area, always looking for new areas, again great video !

@NatureIntoAction 4 года назад

hit me up with any questions or just share a plan and I'll let you know what I can but every bit of it is prime country.

NatureIntoAction Good to know my, friend. If I can help with any Maine trips, just let me know ! Cheers

NatureIntoAction I need to actually clarify where that area is, I will look on google maps, Peace

@jfenn89 Год назад

What’s the capacity of your fry bag? I’ve been looking at getting one like that with straps to make portaging easier.

@NatureIntoAction Год назад

I think it is a Sealine 115. Make sure you get a waist strap.. put pack weight on hips, boat weight on shoulders. I use a smaller sealine bag maybe 75liter now unless w carrying group gear.

@howardhermon1017 4 года назад

Been on Ponds many times. Many small lakers and some beautiful splake. Try spinning with mono and some lead line to sink a little, with hammered spoon(mine are homemade) and jerk. Have camp on St Regis River, always brookies. Use mepps black and yellow, size 0, 1, and 2. Rip them hard. Try canoe from Blue Mtn road all the way to Santa Clara, 10 plus miles. Great ride. Full day or 2. Jim

@Bvnbg0 2 года назад

do you clip your worm in half when the bite is on and inventory is running low?

@NatureIntoAction 2 года назад

I usually use half and hope the bigger fish take it whole instead of little nibbles by smaller brookies. If slow, I would use a full worm and try to find the bite. Barbless and with forceps for quick wet return if you plan to release.

@MeetMeOutside 4 года назад

Actually the Swiss Swing looks a lot like the Thomas spinners we use. Cool, have never tipped them with crawlers !

@jfenn89 3 года назад

How did you keep your meat from spoiling without a cooler?

@NatureIntoAction 3 года назад

I don't but if it starts out frozen it'll last a day or two easily in spring temps.

What time of year did you do this in? I know you said spring but early May? You dont seem to be getting nailed by black flies lol

@NatureIntoAction 3 года назад

Early May. It got bad midday when it was warmer out but was manageable on the water with some wind. Bring a bug jacket!

@@NatureIntoAction I was scoping out that jacket you had on with the zipper hood. I like that what brand? I've used 2 piece ones before and thos little suckers get into every little hole

@MeetMeOutside 5 лет назад

Another wonderful video ! I use a dry bag from Walmart that looks just like the food bag you were using. Great bags for the money. That big brookie was a chunk ! Heading up to Maine for a week of canoe camping and fishing tomorrow morning. Stoked ! Thanks for sharing ! Peace ✌️

@NatureIntoAction 5 лет назад

Good luck!! That sounds great. I'll look forward to the video. I'd like to learn more about Maine and canoe camp one day up there. Yup, same bag.

@bryan6449 5 лет назад

@JKellyNolanBioguide 5 лет назад

Great video... but carrying in Crocks? It's interesting to see the same carry/trails and the obstacles on the trails just in opposite directions. Thunder and lightning storms are my favorite when camping... just as long as it doesn't strike next to me. You did very well on the fishing... great job. What a brookie that was!!! I don't think they get much bigger than that in the Adks. Thanks for taking the time to post.

@NatureIntoAction 5 лет назад

In my defense they were new crocs so had fresh traction. My only complaint is they sound ultra sqeaky on video.👍 That storm was great, lightning and loons calling behind the campfire all watched from the lean-to.

@deerless2965 5 лет назад

I've been back 4 times since I meet you when you were filming this. Figured out the wabblers. Last trip used the silver and chartreuse. If you don't have one I recommend it.

@MichealBacon 5 лет назад

Nice surprise this morning as I had my morning coffee. Couple things; I admire how streamlined your gear is. Clearly you single carry (portaging) on your adventures. Do you single carry on most fishing/canoe trips, even during the shoulder seasons? Have you weighed your pack, including food? Also, why do you hang your pack - mice, squirrels? Gotta like those Canadian worms, eh? Lol. Btw, beautiful slab at 33:00! Incidentally, I never get tired of your venison dishes - nice touch with the baguette and avocado. Thanks for sharing another excellent adventure.

@NatureIntoAction 5 лет назад

thx 😁. Always single carry. I have a 115liter sealine pack so easy to fit a lot of gear and a partner can carry paddled and fishing rods easily without attaching them to the boat or pack. Yes, red squirrels n mice chew holes and potential for bear but very low.

@NatureIntoAction 5 лет назад

worms work! love venison and am lucky to live in a place with too many deer so the freezer is full. thx for watching.

@TheCoastalDrifter 5 лет назад

Great video! Found your channel by watching your Lake Lila vid in prep for an overnight trip. The fishing, canoeing, and camping in this one are top notch. You make it all look easy...especially the portages. What model Mad River canoe do you have? Any recommendations for someone looking to get into multi day canoe trips in the ADK? I have an Old Town but I would not want to portage very far with it. Keep making videos! Love the ADK!

@NatureIntoAction 5 лет назад

Thx. Mad River Explorer in kevlar. You can always rent and give it a try before you buy. Hit Bog River Flow next and if you still got the canoe camping bug you should rent and paddle the St. Regis loop.

heading there this weekend with some buddies, this video was very useful thanks! My buddies are more of beer drinkers and I am more of a large mouth and hoping to find a pike kinda guy, though I will be very happy to hook into a few trout while i'm there! Did you see bait fish? Did you see more bass or pike?

@NatureIntoAction 4 года назад

you may be way better off staying south of floodwood rd for that interest and group type. I've seen small occurances of baitfish but never been in June. Bring bug gear. good luck 👍
