Another great video. Turning 70 this July, going first solo in spring. Afraid past canoe mates too old, too broken down or unfortunately passed away. Maybe I'll see you in the ADKs this year!
33, wow your a young man living the dream! Good for you. I’m 53 and went the way of a desk job. I won’t say I regret it but I’m hell bent now I’m spending as much time as possible in the outdoors while my body still works. Here’s to ice out! Cheers!
Nice. I’ve done a lot of canoeing in my 20s back in the day up your way trout fishing in all kinds of different weather for sure every spring. 52 now and work way too much watching these videos on my breaks. Just ordered one of those mule coolers and I’m going do my first solo trip this spring. ❤ 🏕️ 🎣. Blessed buddy 👍🏻
Happy Birthday, Great video and thank you for sharing. I have to checkout Long Lake and looks very nice We moved to the Lake George area 5yrs ago. So far checked out paradox lake, trout lake, luzerne, Fourth Lake, glenlake and did some island camping on LG. So much beautiful scenery and cool lakes up here to explore.
Dude we were just talking about going up the Cold river in Rondeau territory and seeing what the lean too was all about. We will be there in July for 5 days.
The fact that you are in the Adirondacks is totally cool. Like your channel and style. I know you like the lean 2’s any suggestions pre Memorial Day where I could grab one? How do you know you have a small mouth on the line?
Hey. I am a subscriber and this may sound like an odd question but did you used to travel up long lake in a canoe and power it with a little gas motor to take you up into raquette and cold river?
Happy Birthday!! We'll be on Long Lake in mid-July. How to contact you about guided fishing trip? I know what you mean about your birthday. I'm still 22 in my head, and it's scary to look in the mirror and see 66. If you like Nessmuk, you'll probably enjoy "An Adirondack Passage: The Cruise of the Canoe Sairy Gamp" by Christine Jerome. Tight lines!
Thank you! If you are looking into a guided canoe trip with me, give Adirondack Mountain & Stream a call and talk to Jamie. He owns the outfitter I work for and can get the basic details down before we plan anything. www.adirondackmountainandstream.com/
What do you use for the transducer mount? I have struggled to find something with a retractable arm like that. Would love to know make and model. Thanks for the content!

You should! The whole area out Long Lake way makes for great exploring! Thanks for watching!
Great trip and got some tank bass. Can’t wait to get out with you soon this year. It’s coming quick.
Can't wait!
Ok we just camped at that first site you stooped at this weekend. ❤ If you guide weI’d like to know more about it. Happy 33rd birthday. 🎊 🎉
You can reach out on Instagram or Facebook and talk some details! Thanks for watching!
That was a fun interesting trip to say the least! lol
Cannot wait to do it again!
Cannot wait to do it again!
Cool video! I really enjoyed it!
Glad you enjoyed it! Cannot wait to get back at it this year!
Dude we were just talking about going up the Cold river in Rondeau territory and seeing what the lean too was all about. We will be there in July for 5 days.
I definitely want to get up into that area with my fly rod this year, get a bit of practice casting at the very least!
Jay, Texas Rig a Mann’s grape jelly worm on a slow troll in cold deep water for lunker smallies in the bigger lakes
I am going to have to keep this in mind! Thanks Alan!
Happy belated birthday Jay! Another nice video and it looked like a great trip.
Thank you, Bill! Looking forward to ice-out!

Enjoyed the video...do you use steel leader?
I do use a steel leader when Pike fishing. Never seems to hurt my catch rate!
Hey. I am a subscriber and this may sound like an odd question but did you used to travel up long lake in a canoe and power it with a little gas motor to take you up into raquette and cold river?
No that is not me, never put a motor on my canoe before. Thanks for watching!
Where do you park your cars when you are out on the lake for so many days?
Stephanie and I actually live close enough that she can just drop me off and pick me up wherever the canoe takes me.
