Day two Al and Jason doubled up on 16"+ brookies out of their canoe. Outstanding, especially for a small pond. The wind slowed and the sun shined on us that day so we explored a few areas of the backcountry. I was paddling a Hornbeck Classic and Alex was in his Swift. All light weight gear allowing for efficient wilderness travel.
The last day was slightly rainy and overcast and so we had high hopes that the fish would be biting and they did! My trolling wooly bugger struck a pocket of Landlocked Salmon and I caught my limit of three 20" fish in ten minutes. I decided to keep two for the smoker. Their bellies were swollen with the same midge pupae as the brook trout which surprised me because they are known to target rainbow smelt and other smaller fish. If I had any fishing advice for those asking, it would be to keep your line wet and it'll tighten soon enough!! @natureintoaction

This video has minimal conversation and is edited as an Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response: ASMR signifies the subjective experience of "low-grade euphoria" characterized by "a combination of positive feelings and a distinct static-like tingling sensation on the skin". It is most commonly triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli, and less commonly by intentional attention control.

Video is meant as a learning experience, positive comments only.
Task : Tree and plant i.d.
Must positively identify two plants and two trees in your area. Must demonstrate two uses
for each. DO NOT make a video telling us what can be done with the trees and plants
without showing it. Show it. Because like Granny says: That big talk is worth doodly squat.
Please follow all regulations - catch & release and leave-no-trace. Let's keep these places special.
Task : Bow drill fire using full size axe
Tools: Full size axe (20" over all minimum length) and shoe lace
Must gather and make all parts except the string in the field using only the full size axe.
Must carve a notch with the axe, no two stick fire boards allowed. Show your raw
materials in the video before you make the parts. Use your shoe/boot lace as the string.
Don't bring one to simulate. Use your actual shoe/boot lace.
Within the first few days and nights the camera captured coyote, fox, red tail hawk, vulture, crow, red bellied woodpecker, blue jay and deer.
○ travel outbound min 1hr

○ do in area you’ve never been in before
-My first time, so a fun learning experience..not a how to lesson..
Lots of campfire cookery.
Thanks for respecting the woods & waters.
Pack in Pack Out!
Leave Places Better Then You Found them : )
Only cut "dead and down" wood, nothing standing as per n=NYS dec regs.
Fire with firesteel only
○ Find everything you need in woods
○ No blowing or fanning to keep fire going
○ no fat wood or birch bark
○ knee high flames
Trout are sensitive especially in warmer water after a fight. Quick release with minimal disturbance is key and allowing the water to flow through their gills will help them revive and swim away.
