I couldnt agree more!!!!!!!!! the true definition of "I have won at life" is having kids that look up to you, respect you, and most importantly.... LOVE YOU!!!
Great video Matt! I finally have some advice to hand over! For high-alpine lakes like these, there are a few things to note: - The fish in these systems cruise constantly, so a few spinner casts are great in each spot, but if they don't bite on that, swap over to something like suspended bait with a bobber/indicator. Like you saw in the stomach, these guys are eating a lot of suspended bugs and bugs that are floating on the surface. - In the mornings, an hour or two after sun rise and a couple hours before sunset are your best time to find them actively cruising. Midday, they will often move more towards the center, deeper portions of the lakes. I've had days on these waterways where I wont catch anything all day, then that magical hour and half before sunset, I'll land 10+ fish. - These lakes look like they're just going through their seasonal "ice-off". Meaning the fish are going to be ready to eat A LOT now that they have access to outside food sources again, but a patient bobber or fly fishing indicator setup will yield the best results. You can even land 2 fish on the same setup if you rig a couple suspended baits. My buddies and I have done this each year during ice-off in CO. - Finally, my ideal setup for these, whether you're using a spinning rod or fly fishing rod, is an indicator/bobber, with some chironomids and scuds suspended several feet down. Or for more active fishing, small black, brown, or green streamers with just a little weight. This mimics their more active, natural food sources of minnows and leaches. And then the cue de gra, which is the most fun, but very dependent on where you are and time of year, is a small floating hopper pattern. Drop one of these close to one of those ledge drop offs you were seeing in that super clear water for some truly exhilarating topwater takes.
For the people that love the outdoors and camping and don’t have anything like this near them, barely any good camping you make us feel like we are there so we thank you !
The main reason why me or us keep watching your videos is that you're not boring to watch. It's entertaining to watch bcuz you keep talking every move, every step. Also I learned a lot from you from fishing, cooking at many more. I love watching your videos while drinking my coffee ☕ however right now it's night time here so I can't drink coffee. I'm thinking if I'll just watch your this new video tomorrow but I can't wait till tomorrow. I'm your big fan for a very long time. The first video I watched was when you cought a small shark I don't know what kind of shark was it.
Been watching for 9 years. You got me back out fishing again about 8 years ago. Your Vipassana vid got me to go to a Goenka course. I’ve never commented, but I watch every vid and have been here through the ups and downs. Feel like I know you. Keep it going Matt.
I'm a sucker for the ocean catch and cooks, but there's nothing like a mountain catch/cook/camp video from you man. Makes me long to be out there myself! Said it before, but these are my favorite kinda vids from you!
Missed this kind of videos! Thank you too for taking us outside through your videos Mat. I live where there is no fishing and mountains to hike to. So watching you guys do what you do is already a joy for me. Been watching when you were below 60k subs.
I love the format of video you've been doing recently. Hiking, catch and cook, camping out, and eating all the great fish you catch. So awesome. I hope we get many more these!
Been a fan for a while. I watch when I can not every video but here and there. I envy your adventures and family, in my eyes you’re winning. I know it’s only bits and pieces from your life but thank you. love from Vegas.✌️
so cool to finally get to a new vlog from only 9 days ago (yayya).. I've been following along and watched a dozen 9years ago- 9days ago over this past week, which is when I discovered your vlog.... love what you do, your commentary is what others appreciate aswell.
been watching for years ive been getting a lot more into fishing and going camping and youve got me to love it just from your vids so thanks man wish you the best!
Been watching you for years man and I can't even begin to tell you the inspiration you have given me to get outdoors more and enjoy the benefits of it. Keep up the good work and keep inspiring people like me!
Trouts stomach had hellgrammites in it. If you turn over wood pieces on the shoreline really slow you can find them on the bottom. The trout love them!! 1 hellgrammite=1 trout every time!
Some of us, like me, don't really enjoy camping and survival ourselves, but really enjoy others doing it and having fun. It's a joy watching you, and others like you, enjoy doing what you're doing and be happy.
One of my top three youtubers right here! Im always so happy to see that you've posted and can never wait to get off work or have a break to indulge your fun, entertaining, awesome videos.
Matt my old neck of the woods. I lived in Arnold for 11 years. Never saw a drone footage of highway 4 but climbed up that hill a lot on my road bike What you caught was a wild "highland Rainbow." Spicer used to have them by the thousdands till CDFW put eagle lake trout in there and they eagle lake trout had tape worm and killed off most of the wild population. Glad to see thy still survive up there
You’ll probably never read this but I wanted to mention why you’re my favorite outdoors channel.i am 23 with no kids and my partner of 6 years has parted ways…it hurts so much seeing other channels enjoying the outdoors with their significant others,makes me feel horrible,but this channel it is always you alone even though you do mention your family you always do the adventures alone which makes me feel like encouragement of continuing alone after 6 years
Yes! For a second I thought it was stock footage filmed from a helicopter then realized it was a dang drone 😳 Need to find out which model drone that is and also buy him a decent set of camping utensils 😂 I highly recommend the German army-surplus eating utensils from the 1980's. All stainless steel spoon, fork, butter knife, and can opener and they all brilliantly combine into the can opener for storage. A little heavy but totally worth it.
@@Xpyburnt_ndz he does have the commercial license as it is legally required in order to share or put into any videos ever. Extremely idiotic, but government will be government. It's why I've still not ever used my own drones. I'd rather not risk a picky cop checking if I have the required permit to do so, or the feds checking if it is my own drones photos or footage used in my videos. May not be likely, but it isn't a gamble I want to take. Maybe someday, though 😂
@@trippinoutdoors You just sent me down a rabbit hole that ended up with me trying to wing their practice test. Kinda interesting, a mixture of common sense questions and crazy acronyms pertaining to exact rules or locations. Probably could pass it if i studied for a few days.
@@Raeilgunne most people say it's wicked easy, and from what I've been told is $5 for the permit which lasts 3 years. Though since then, I've also seen and heard the feds altered the criteria, rules and of course the course you go through in order to obtain it. Sounded like they were going to merge their in-depth training course with their permit one so everyone would be required to go through it before they could obtain the commercial license. I haven't kept up with it all for a few years yet.
My, my, my home life has evolved for you! Family, home, and still great fishing content! You were the first UA-camr I watched on YT 6 years ago. I was in a dark place, your content brought me peace! Thank you! God bless & MORE life! 🫶🏾🙌🏾💐🤍🙏🏾
This video reminds me of the time my old man and I went to stay with at my oldest sister's house when she lived in San Francisco. We spent a couple days visiting an uncle over at Lake Tahoe and during our time there, he took us out to one of the rivers where I got to swim with a face mask that allowed me to see almost 30 feet down to the bottom of the riverbed. It was amazing because it was sooo clear and I could see a little cave-like alcove underneath where there were about 10+ 3-5'-long fish. I don't know what the fish were but they weren't scary-looking or anything like that--just some kind of river fish that would've been super-fun to fish for. But the water, nature... It's one of my most cherished memories. This video reeks of it. I envy you, Matt! But stay safe, man. That bear spray you have is good and all, but if I were you, I'd acknowledge the other threats and carry a firearm, too. Even for big bears, that spray might not be enough and with the world being what it is today, we all know how common weirdos can be in remote areas. Just stay safe, man.
I started watching you and tallfishermanj years ago and I’m so glad you still post regularly! It’s refreshing to see actual wholesome content of the outdoors. Love what you do man, keep it going!🤙
Love your content. Been watching and liking for years first time commenting!! Never stop! Your content has got me through a lot in the past and I’m going through it now so again, NEVER STOP!
I have been subscribed to you for the longest I love your videos and I remember at the very beginning I never skipped ads from how much I supported your work ! I love them to this day and you rock continue being you ❤
This is a really cool adventure. The scenery with all that snowfall is something I don’t think I’ve seen you do before. Awesome vid to start the morning with
I swear people want you to be perfect which none of us are you are doing great bro I respect you 100 percent watched every single video and will continue watching as long as god has me on this earth
My fishing buddy has a Sienna and every year it converts into “Golden Trout One”. Uses schedule 40 to slide the fly rods above where we sleep. That way we’re always ready to fish! It holds one cot and enough room for a guest to sleep on the floor. Virtually holds tons of fishing gear, cooking equipment, portable stove, folding table, folding arm chairs, 5 gal water square jug with battery powered pump. Oh and an emergency cassette toilet. He custom made a blackout curtain behind the front seats… and folding blackout panels for the windows. A cargo net just under the rod holders for extra stuff. Rod holders are against the ceiling. Have fun with your Sienna. Also brings 1 to 2 ice chests.. never uses the cargo racks.
Thanks for the years of great content. You were the first catch and cook video I ever watched before Covid - which opened up so many other amazing channels to explore. Cheers! 🍻
im not even into fishing as a matter a fact ive never gone fishing once but something about your videos just makes them so enjoyable its a really good thing to watch like in the background. Keep up the good work
Hey Matt, after years and years of watching you I finally placed my first order on your website. Iv always dreamed of buying stuff off of it and now I did. I’m excited to receive my package soon but genuinely thank you. Keep up the great content and don’t you dare ever stop😂😂.
What a great fresh water video Matts! It just goes to show that you're a true fisherman by not giving up. That meal looked delicious! Lundberg brand (your rice) is from my county here in Butte (Nor Cal). So cool.
Howdy Matt! When you’re navigating snow covered mountains your main concerns for falling through the snow is a hidden stream, buried waterfall, crevasse, glacial crevasse. All you can really do is poke at the snow in front of you, and look for dips. Make sure to have some ice cleats or crampons in your mountain bag! It makes life up there a lot easier.
Your determination to brave the elements and fish at 8,500 ft, even in the snow, showcases your passion for adventure and love of nature. Sharing such a satisfying meal after your overnight fishing trip is a testament to your resilience and appreciation for life's simple pleasures. Keep exploring and inspiring others!" And I Am Floating Village Life
Love the video as always! Just wanted to respond to your question about the snow collapsing. Yes this is a very real possibility, smaller trees and even large bushes can get barrier under the snow in a way that creates a sort of pocket, and if you walk over it you can be sucked under and engulfed in the snow. Please be careful out there :)
I don't comment much but really love watching your videos. I don't know how long I have been watching but when you said "why do people still watch these videos" I enjoy the way you speak about your experience through your videos and the way you try to teach us the viewers on things we don't know and you might of just learned or the other way around.
Want are you talking about, that You're surprised? Are you kidding? Worst day fishing is better than the best day at work. And I'm watching you while I'm at work. Been a fan for almost six years. Used to live in San Mateo and fished all my life. You're a good friend by way of the internet. I typically always carry my yaktracs, especially at elevations above 8000'.
Awesome video so beautiful. I always notice when trout fishing I never catch anything midday but early in the morning or sundown. Bingo you caught one right around sun down
I just found your channel and you had me at hello! Lol Love it cuz I dont live around such a beautiful area as you! Keep throwing that line, never know what you'll catch!! 😊❤
New to your channel, from Sac. Watching from Tampa bay area, FL. Love your vids so far, been binge watching them, I just started fishing a couple days ago. Great video, I love the determination brotha haha
I just started getting into fishing. My 12 and 9 year old love it. Looking forward to the Sienna videos. I’ve been looking at an older Honda Pilot. Keep up the good work.
I've always thought it's weird to have been hanging out with you for years on most of your fishing trips and you have no idea who I am. The modern world is a strange place man! Cheers dude
Hey Matt, not sure this’ll be seen but as far as falling into the snow even if its compacted, bushes and stuff are probably the most treacherous thing I’d worry about, nearly twisted an ankle a few times in those, main thing is to keep an eye out for the tips of the bushes that are still sticking out. That is, if large bushes are common in your area. Been catching up on videos after a fair little hiatus, great to see you making content that retains the charm of the videos from years ago while doing new stuff. Have a good one and tight lines!
I'm from Destin Florida with flat flat flat flat land! I always dream of just going to the mountains to find a nice cabin or just camping in the wilderness. Maybe snap up a couple of trout for dinner. Breathe in the crisp clean air. It may be just a pipe dream for me, but I would love it so much. I envy you and wish you success on all your adventures.
The best part of the vlog for me was actually the beginning when your kids said bye and that they love their dad. You are blessed Matt.
I couldnt agree more!!!!!!!!! the true definition of "I have won at life" is having kids that look up to you, respect you, and most importantly.... LOVE YOU!!!

Your attitude is great. Your being sooo positive will catch you a fish

- 11:44 How do you plan on getting back up that steep snow mountain 🏔?
Thank YOU for making the wonderful videos! Always such a treat when you post. Also, DOPE SHIRT!
Around 13:15. That boulder in the clear water gives me an eerie feeling.
Beautiful scenery..beautiful fish!..your vids make me happy❤️🫶🏻
Love the video as always! Just wanted to respond to your question about the snow collapsing. Yes this is a very real possibility, smaller trees and even large bushes can get barrier under the snow in a way that creates a sort of pocket, and if you walk over it you can be sucked under and engulfed in the snow. Please be careful out there :)
Hey Mat, watching you all the way from Japan here, really enjoyed your vids.
Keep it up with another great vids, catch clean and cook those fishes..
That looked like so much fun. Great video.
I always say, the next cast is going to be the one! Way to stick with it and end up with a great dinner. Super content. Beautiful spot to video!

Do you know when you hear new music for the first time from your fav artist? This type-video feels like a new classic! 💯💯
I can’t go out adventuring anymore so I’m watching to live vicariously through you
So refreshing, even for me. It’s nice to stop scrolling and watch your videos.
Now this was the kind of video I needed while I ate dinner on a fine Saturday evening.
Thank you for sharing. Also thank you for not loading up on ads.
Man i should get back out to the mountains. Thanks for bringing back so many memories man.
Want are you talking about, that You're surprised? Are you kidding? Worst day fishing is better than the best day at work. And I'm watching you while I'm at work. Been a fan for almost six years.

Hey man I really like your videos and I enjoy watching. Keep it up ✌️
I’ll always be watching dude. It’s an escape it’s inspiration it’s educational. Top tier shit.
Really like the drone shots, nice work fishermanslife
I love the tips you give and the vibe, earned my sub
I always have to watch your videos, one of my favorite content creators
Awesome video so beautiful. I always notice when trout fishing I never catch anything midday but early in the morning or sundown. Bingo you caught one right around sun down
This video was great!! More like this man!
You are living the life, my friend!!!👍👍👍👍
I just found your channel and you had me at hello! Lol Love it cuz I dont live around such a beautiful area as you! Keep throwing that line, never know what you'll catch!! 😊❤
Enjoy watching your vlogs of fishing bro!, much love all the way from Nova Scotia!!.
Huge fan brother. Seeing you cut that onion made me nervous. Haha Toyota technician here and can’t wait to see the sienna build.
Been watching since your first upload best outdoor channel to watch in my opinion
New to your channel, from Sac. Watching from Tampa bay area, FL. Love your vids so far, been binge watching them, I just started fishing a couple days ago. Great video, I love the determination brotha haha
I just started getting into fishing. My 12 and 9 year old love it.
Looking forward to the Sienna videos. I’ve been looking at an older Honda Pilot. Keep up the good work.
I’m looking forward to more rock fishing this year from you !! 🤙
This was an amazing journey to witness. Keep up the great content!
Great catch mate. Always carry extra lures & baits, even some feathers would do the trick with any jigs. Cheers from Australia.
Talk about perseverance and overcoming all odds. 👏.
I've always thought it's weird to have been hanging out with you for years on most of your fishing trips and you have no idea who I am. The modern world is a strange place man! Cheers dude
Hey Matt, not sure this’ll be seen but as far as falling into the snow even if its compacted, bushes and stuff are probably the most treacherous thing I’d worry about, nearly twisted an ankle a few times in those, main thing is to keep an eye out for the tips of the bushes that are still sticking out. That is, if large bushes are common in your area.
Been catching up on videos after a fair little hiatus, great to see you making content that retains the charm of the videos from years ago while doing new stuff.
Have a good one and tight lines!
Hell yeah I cant wait to see that sienna build!!!
I'm from Destin Florida with flat flat flat flat land! I always dream of just going to the mountains to find a nice cabin or just camping in the wilderness. Maybe snap up a couple of trout for dinner. Breathe in the crisp clean air. It may be just a pipe dream for me, but I would love it so much.
I envy you and wish you success on all your adventures.
I like watching your videos because you have such a broad vocabulary. I've learned a lot of words just by watching, moreover I love fishing too
Damn brother! Got a place up there and absolutely love it. Glad to see you’re enjoying it!
It looks amazing, I wish I could go fishing with you one day. You have the best fishing spots.
This is the type of video that I love
Im a simple man. I see new fisherman’s life. I press play.
I enjoyed the return to origin. More of this please!
Love watching your adventures bro. Keep it up
