Wow, what a great video! And a huge shout out to the Freshwater Fisheries Society for installing these docks all over BC. As a wee lad my brothers and I spent countless happy unsupervised hours fishing on various docks on lakes such as Gallagher and Paul Lake in the late 1960s. (At the time these were private docks but we were little kids and the owners didn't mind) These public docks such as the ones in the video allow easy access to fishable water to those who don't have a boat, and are a way for kids to start to experience and experiment with fishing. A lot of sunny happy memories from those days. Fun fact - we used to catch little trout and perch at Gallagher with rolled up bits of Velveeta cheese, and one summer had great success at Paul lake with a drop weight, a 3 way swivel and small marshmallows. My dad caught a beastie of nearly 10 pounds using this method - casting out past the drop off. We actually took so many fish to be frozen and stored at the then Echo Lodge that we made the weekly fishing report on the local radio station. A great memory .Thanks again

Great late season trip Rod! Thanks for showing how fun it is late season as long as your prepared for the cold its awesome.

Nice relaxing change of pace. If your trout fishing, it's all good. Thanks Rod.

Yay for lake fishing! Carol, from Sydney, Australia

I really enjoyed the personality of you two.

Best trips are the spontaneous ones .

Since the salmon started running I’ve been having a great trout season so far! First was a 31 inch, 2 18 inch, 19 inch, 17 inch and 1 15 inch all brown trout. All on rooster tail

Yes i did enjoy the video. Beautiful rainbow! Linda hooked onto. I've noticed that the first week or two when the lakes just start icing around the edges at night and pretty much thaw during the day. The fish tend be a lot less active. You can still hook up if they decide to eat. And they don't seem picky. But ive had some close and no matter what I threw at them they wouldn't go for it. I think its an acclamation period they go through. But im no biologist. Hope theres enough ice for next week's adventure! Its still warm enough here to enjoy a full days fishing and not get cold. So im taking advantage of it while it lasts. Great video Rod. Linda, give the guy a break! He's what now, 0 for ten? 😅😅 Just kidding, its always fun seeing you both fishing. Thanks again.

Hi Rod. Thank you for sharing this video. I don’t fish, my friends do but I love taking videos. I went to Chilliwack River already for salmon fishing. I would appreciate for suggestions where to fish near Mission or anywhere in the Lower Mainland. Thank you.

what a beautiful place

Deer, Deer tracks ;-)

Happy Thanksgiving Rod!

Hi Rod, thank you for a great video and sharing your experiences. I'm looking at getting a trout rod/reel set-up. Can you refer me to a previous video that you have done trout rod/reel set-ups and recommendations? Thanks.

The only thing I could think of was your line might have been too heavy. I would use 6-4 lb test line. And maybe you should leave some of the shrimp without the scent. I use the pink salad shrimp for ice fishing and they can see that white color from a distance and they can smell it really good still. Or use a mini marshmallow with the scented shrimp but make a 2-3 ft leader with a sliding weight and swivel. It works with night crawlers as well.

Inflated worms on the bottom .use hypodermic needle late season killer i use a slip weightand swivel to leader but the three way swivel technique works well too

Wow beauty fish Linda way to out fish rod

Rod, do you think you could try to fish for walleye out there in b.c. thanks.

Rod, where do you think will be ready for next week ice fishing? I'm up in Merritt and thinking maybe up towards Tunkwa or Kane Valley

Good size for eating 👌

Through out the summer time I spent trout fishing and I was more successful with 1/8 black/camo rooster tail in first daylight with split shot sinker then I switch it up with blue chrome rooster tail.

I am not an expert such as yourselves but I am wondering the logic of fishing a foot or two off the bottom? If the lake is post fall turn over and about to ice up shouldn’t the fish be suspended throughout the water column?

NewSub good stuff

Is it stocked trout this size ?

Need to break out the ( buddy) burrr

I miss kitty😢

Great video but wish you would not advertise what lake you are at. These lakes get enough pressure as it is .
