2015 Fishing Videos
« on: February 03, 2015, 02:29:27 PM »
The previous YouTube videos thread is getting quite long so I thought we should start an annual one instead. Here's my first one to get 2015 going.

We finished filming a Stamp River steelhead fishing episode on the weekend with Murphy Sportfishing. The above is just a short clip of what we got. Enjoy.

Is fishing with rod slowly becoming fishing with kitty? I'm not complaining, just an observation. ;) can't wait to see the entire video.

I'm retiring, training interns to carry on the torch.

Here is a 8 minute video I just finished producing on the Fraser River white sturgeon recovery program.

Here is a quick look at what I saw on my adventures this past year. More about the fish rather than the fishing (as I didn't catch enough with my fishing gear to make a video).

Nice Ambassador. I'm guessing you used a drone. Amazing the shots from those things. Rodney when are you getting yours?

Thanks everyone! Yeah, I picked up a Phantom a while back and have tried a few passes over a few rivers and lakes. Word if warning when flying over water - they can have a bit of a mind of their own. It went a bit haywire today at Jones Lake and came down like a rock on top of the truck from about 40 ft up (full battery - full gps - calibrated). Luckily built tough and back in the air shortly. Now if we were over the lake like moments earlier - bye $$$$!

I guess there's no ice on Jones Lake to catch the drone… ;D What's the water level like there right now?

I'll wait a bit longer to get a drone… Invested on too many camera toys already.

Here's another new video.

Nice dogfish, Rod! That was the first fish I saw caught when I moved to the coast years ago. Never bothered skinnydipping in the ocean after I saw that.
As for Jones - no ice at all and it was the lowest that I have seen it. Lots of stumps exposed and about 100 yards of sand to drive down to get to the shore just south of the creek. The water was crystal clear and like glass. Little snow on the peaks and the road was quite good - just keep an eye out for skidders, cranes and such as there is heavy logging going on up there at the moment.
Do you think the Kokanee in there could be hungry for a fly? There were a few mosquitoes there already :o
