+dadgad68 Thank you very much, yes we have a time of year for everything, hunting, fishing trapping and harvesting make up a large portion of our life, love it wouldn't change it for anything ...!!!!
Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time to show the world your adventures. You live with enthusiasm. Really nice to see that you include the family. Best, Jim.
please good sir! stop putting out the best outdoor videos on youtube! i need sleep! lol. took only 2 of your videos to subscribe and just can't get enough of them! i am in total awe of your love , respect and knowledge of the land! I am outdoors as much as possible here in ontario but, for you it is a way of life! Just a superb job filming,narrating and making us feel like we are right beside you on every adventure!
+Huntnfishnuts Yes was the only chance we had to get a few for the winter, actually going to stew up some char tomorrow, outdoor cookup. Thank you, appreciate it ...!!!!
Always wanted to go to Lab. and catch some arctic char...had a uncle who taught in Postville for 10 years or so & i never made the trip!! Maybe i will in the near future !! You got some beauties there Bill & what a beautiful spot!! Great stuff there as always i really look forward to your videos!!
+rodney newbury Hopefully when you come I wont be busy, we'll certainly have to go a fishing trip some time. I done a little smelt fishing not far from Postville this past winter, Postville is know for their large smelts, I wanted to see it for myself but tides weren't right when we were there and never had a lot of time to spare, that's when I was on the way back from polar bear hunting. Fishing in Adlavik is amazing, winter and summer ...!!!! Thanks buddy, looking forward to catching up on the vids, season winding down, one more trip of shrimp to go, forecast bad for a few days so heading out tomorrow for a hunt and work on the cabin, and outdoor cook up as well, can't beat the outdoor food, you know all about that ....!! Cheeer's buddy, havin a beer and picking a goose ....lol
As always, another great video Bill. Some of those fish were dandys . Good to see you found time for family. I know at times when your fishing a lot it's hard to do. Later buddy and all the best to you all.
+NSTRAPPERHUNTER Been a extremely busy summer, took on a extra quota of crab, that chewed up extra time. This sure was a much needed break, had a great time. Hope everything is great your way,, all the best ...!!!!
+SwampDonkey530 Yes they are very lively, they don't stay out very long before they go back in so they are very aggressive when they are out. The further North you go the better they get, they are adapted to a very short summer. I actually never fished lakers before, going to try get out for a ice fishing trip this winter. Yes we always has a time of year to hunt, fish & gather something, to me its the tastiest and healthiest to eat. Thanks buddy, appreciate it ...!!
+Wallace Vivian Thank you's, was a wonderful trip, kids had a blast as well. Char I would kinda consider between trout and salmon, and cooks them the same way.
Hard life William, but guess we all got to work. Nice vid; lots of char, good fish eh. salmon are on here now and easy to fly. Lots of fun there too. Cheers bud stay safe out there. life is good!
+hunt4fish Yes sir life is good, always try get out and enjoy it when I can. I don't get to fly fish for salmon as much as I use to, always a busy time of year for us but try and squeeze in some fishing when I can. Take care buddy all the best ...!!!
NLGhostWolf Thanks always enjoys the time in Adlavik. That will be a amazing trip Charlie, looking forward to making that trip some day also, looking forward to the vids .....!!!
How nice ! Seems like your living in a paradise with interminable fish source. In these days, ppl never treasure what they can get from the sea and keep contaminating it. Enjoy it while it still lasts.
Yes I often gets comments from people that are against hunting & fishing but yet they live in areas where they destroyed the environment. I think i'ts much better to look after the environment & harvest from it, thank you....
looked like a few flies hanging around you there...Plenty of action there with the fish no doubt...look at that pole bend, you have to love the fight...That spoon you had on seem to be the ticket for these fish and a great meal for you...
+Heith Gagnon Yes was one of the better mornings I had fishing in a long time, lost a few good clips transferring to computer. They are very aggressive, they don't spend much time out, they glut themselves and head back in the brooks for the winter, I taught I heard said they double their weight on their time out. Char like the bright, neon colour pixies, people here use them a lot char fishing , they work great. Yes few great meals for the winter, going to cook up some char tomorrow, outdoor cook up, forecast bad so going to take advantage of my time of. Hope everything is great your way, season winding down now so looking forward to catching up on things, all the bets buddy ...!!!!
I can't tell you how anxious I am to come up there buddy. Really looking forward to that. I used to use those Pixies in Alaska and had good luck with them. Cheers.
+thebossoftheswamp The char love the neon color pixies, we use them trolling at times as well. You'll have a blast Boss, always something to be doing ...!!!!!
+surethingsfly Was a much needed break thank you, always a busy time of year for us. The end of the season is in sight, just one more trip of shrimp to go, but usually busy at other things when I do get a break from fishing ....lol Hope everything is well your way, looking forward to catching up on some vids.
+Jonathan Strickland Thank you, yes actually going to cook some up tomorrow, I like to eat them up, don't like to keep fish certainly anything in the freezer to long. Very true, better to be out and about for sure.
I just got back from the Arctic coast not real good fishing down there. I caught 2 tom cod and videoed them when I released them and said go to Big Land Trapper in Newfoundland. Should post the video in a day or two, the Tom cod should be there in a decade or so.
It doesn't get any nicer than that William or colder except on Pluto. I had good luck with pixie spoons on trout in Shuswap lake. I prefer the flourescent orange or even the pink. For a spoon though my all time favorite is Gibbs Crocodile or Lure Jensen Krocodile. Although around here Len Thompson red & white or 5 of diamonds work well & I hear red & white work deadly on char. Len Thompson puts red stripe in the middle. It seems to hypnotize fish.
+Tossdart Was a wonderful trip, a much needed break, been a busy summer we been going pretty much non stop. Char really like the neon colour pixies they work great trolling as well, they sell a pile of them in Makkovik, the red and white works deadly for the sea run brook trout as well ..!!
+backyardmeat Thanks BYM, Yes few dried, few smoked and a few fresh, was the only chance to get a few for the winter so took advantage of it. Always enjoys the time in Adlavik .....!!!
+JT Outdoors Sure was thank you, they are kinda like trout, more like a trout than salmon. They certainly put up a great fight, very lively, great eating as well...
+WildByNature Thank you, yes I'll be finished with the fishing a little earlier than last year that will give me more prep time for trapping, was out did a little scouting but weather been a bit miserable last couple days...!!!
+emptyset00 You know best to use a bug jacket none of the bug repellents work as good or as long as I like, there have been times I've been bit up pretty bad. You welcome ...!!!
+KyleBlain Very beautiful place, very remote. Not sure this is on Nunatsiavut lands not sure what you would have to do to acquire land. Heading to Makkovik for the holidays so we'll be doing some ice fishing here very soon, aways enjoys the time in Adlavik ...!!!
+William Larkham Jr (Bigland Trapper) forgot to subscribe earlier but just did! love your channel and your videos! keep up the great work and God be with you!
Fantastic, thanks for the video...it's makin me hungry for smoked Char!!!! As a fisherman, I have a question - since you use a boat to get to your locations, why not fish from the boat, what's the advantage of fishing from shore? Obviously it's working for you, so I'm not questioning that, just wondering if there's a reason for it? Also, what time of year is this - early June I'm guessing? Thanks for the video.
+Breeding Aquarium Fish You welcome, yes you can fish from boat & is good fun but nice and peaceful fishing from the shore in the morning. On this side of the bay you catch more char, go to the opposite side of the bay you get more trout. This was early July the char were soon going back in the brook for the winter, nice and fat. Oh yes smoked char would be good I have one left & will have next week, smoked char & Caesar is one of my favorite combo's.....
+Patrick Really enjoyed this trip, was a much needed break. Those char are absolutely delicious, they smoke wild caught char in Nain, Torngat fisheries, they does a great job with it....
When the camera is in the housing it muffles the sound, external speaker would probably be a good investment. Hope you enjoyed the video regardless.....
William you're a lucky man to live in a land of plenty. Thanks so much. Great video.
+dadgad68 Thank you very much, yes we have a time of year for everything, hunting, fishing trapping and harvesting make up a large portion of our life, love it wouldn't change it for anything ...!!!!

+cabotbluegill Adlavik sure is a beautiful spot, long ago people use to live there but now there are just cabins there.
any local bug repellent you'd recommend? bugs are always the drawback when the fishing is good. thanks for sharing the vid!
+emptyset00 You know best to use a bug jacket none of the bug repellents work as good or as long as I like, there have been times I've been bit up pretty bad. You welcome ...!!!
I'd love to live over there, looks so beautiful. A lot of property available??

You smoke the fish, not many trees from what I can see. What type of wood?
We use crow berry bush with the sod still attached, traditional way to smoke fish here...
nice catch lot of fish
+Marc Germain Only trip we had to get a few for the winter, wether turned a little nasty but was a great trip ...!!!
Great vid. Those char look good enough to eat raw. That orange flesh must be delicious smoked.
+holdengr Thank you, sure is great smoked, actually going to stew some up tomorrow, nice outdoor cookup ...!!!

+nick avery Thank you, really try to get out and enjoy it every chance I get, was a fantastic trip, enjoyed by everyone ...!!!
This is purely tongue in cheek but do you have a real job? All I see you do is cool hunting, fishing and trapping. I think it's awesome.
zombiesolutions95
What he does is more "real" than the type of job you are thinking of
That's why I made what I thought was a humorous comment.
+zombiesolutions95 Hahha true when its hard to distinguish work from play then its a darn fine job ...lol Thank you ...!!!
That's when you know your doin it right. God bless man.
Hear that drag sing on that zebco 404
So jealous .. I don't have any char in Quebec :(
+Patrick Really enjoyed this trip, was a much needed break. Those char are absolutely delicious, they smoke wild caught char in Nain, Torngat fisheries, they does a great job with it....
Very Irish like accent, must be Irish settlers in the bloodline.
i can understand like 20 percent of what that guy is saying
When the camera is in the housing it muffles the sound, external speaker would probably be a good investment. Hope you enjoyed the video regardless.....
