September 2, 2018 Midge Hatch in Tranquil channel
Переглядів 1216 років тому
Coming home after dark I ran into this midge hatch. It’s been going on for three weeks. Walleyes, perch and birds are feeding heavily on them. Many boats from Canada and Minnesota are seen fishing the mud flats south of Tranquil for fish that are feeding on the emerging insects. Walleye sauger and perch bellies are full of chironomids when you clean them.
Snapping turtles fighting

I was down at camp And a big turtle 40 pounds looked like it was mating with a smaller 15-20 pounder. Then another 40 came in and fought on and off for the next 5 hours. They are now both resting in shallow water. Enjoy the fight. Al Smith Smithcamps.

A new feature on my phone. It compiles fun videos. Oh and the model 29 Smith on my side is legal. A young male bear bluff charged my wife that day. And I have the Wilderness Handgun permits to carry on the trapline (I live on the trapline) and for protection when dealing with threatening bears. 90% of the time it is adolescent males.

    This is by far the BEST pike deboning video I've ever seen. This is the way that I learned to debone pike. I really wish I could delete %95 of UA-cam Pike deboning videos that waste a tonne of meat & over complicate it with unnecessary cuts. I've watched this video many times and still enjoy it.

    • @smithcampsonlakeofthewoods2570
      @smithcampsonlakeofthewoods2570 3 роки тому

      Hi Gerry, You sure can carve out the mud line if it is to strong for you. Our whitefish are very clean and I dont find the mudline a problem. I have removed it if my wife is making chowder as she feels it is a little strong sometimes. Most of our whitefish is smoked with skin on so as long as the brine penetrates to the skin I enjoy the oil in the mud line. Cheers Al Smith

    Thank you Dave, There are ways that are faster But We always get the highest yield. Carving around the rib cage works and doesn't open the gut. We have never had a problem in 50 years and we think our way is best for a line of 3 or more cutters when we get a couple hundred pounds of walleye at a time to fillet.

  • @smithcampsonlakeofthewoods2570
    @smithcampsonlakeofthewoods2570 5 років тому

    The way I find the bones in all the species of fish I deal with is using your knife gently scrape the fillet from head to tail removing the blood so you can get a visual of the bones. They look like little white dots. run your finger tip gently over the dots and you should feel them. Remember the bones you are removing are no wider than your knife blade and thats how wide your cut should be. pin bones run to the skin. cut gently enough so you do not cut through the skin.taper both cuts so that the cuts meet under the bones at the skin and you can then lift the thin strip out. many chefs use a hemostat or suitable pliers and pluck the bones individually. Problem is on very fresh fish often you will rip the fish flesh. Plus it takes a lot longer. Good luck! Tight lines and Straight Shootin!

    Experience clearly shows in this vid. That’s a heck of a fish. I’ve recently started targeting whitefish and plan to keep some occasionally. I’d like to avoid wasting as much as I can. I am curious how easy it is to locate and remove the pin bones. You make it look easy, I have a feeling that might not be true. Thank you for this demo.

    Had him in the dryer drum on the beach and someone let it go. I saw a 15lb snapper keeping an eye on the beach one day and we saw another baby turtle heading to the water and I think the bigger turtle was trying to intercept the little hatchlings as they tried to get to the lake for the first time in their lives. We relocated the big turtle. We used turtle soup and stew even Gumbo. but the new law forbids us to harvest snapping turtles. Winnie Duplechene from Louisiana said I cleaned a snapping turtle better that anyone she ever met. The ultimate complement from a true Cajun. Bless her Heart!
