The Red Deer River in Southern Alberta is such a beautiful and unique waterbody. The river is clear and warm, there is erosion and hoodoos surrounding the bank and most of all, the fishing is incredible. There are plenty of big fish, but also a lot of diversity. It is by far, one of my favorite rivers, of all time!
In this episode, me and my dad arrive late one night to the Red Deer River. Our immediate goal was to set up camp as the night was rapidly creeping up on us. After deciding where we'd stay the night, I decided to head down to the river, to see if I couldn't catch a last minute fish. To my surprise, I got two different species. After the sun completely set, we had a fire and then called it a night. Early next morning, our good friends Jonah, his dad and Sean showed up. We had arranged to float a long ways down river with the goal to attempt to catch some fish along the way. Stay tuned to see how the rest of the day panned out!

Beautiful Country
@@99problemsbutafishaintone35 The badlands are a sight to be seen.
I would go fishing in the red deer river but it’s a little far from where I live, but that’s why I watch u❤
@@Bigmonke146 Well I’m glad my videos do the trick! And as always I appreciate the support!
That was a fantastic outing in a very beautiful location.
Your editing just keeps getting better and better. You caught some gorgeous Walleye and Goldeye! Good job to your dad for that huge Walleye! 💪
Your last one was a beast as well!
Thank you! I can't get over how beautiful of a location it is. There were for sure some nice fish landed in the boat. I am glad my dad could out do me with another tank Walleye! I appreciate all the support, thank you!
Fantastic video Bennett, your editing just gets better and better. What a day! Thanks again for the invite
Thank you! Can't wait until our next adventure!
Just finished re-watching. Those walleyes and Goldeye are gorgeous. Splendid area also!
Excellent video!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. Walleye and Goldeye are incredible.
Great video I love that river. We were the group that were out floating past you guys.
It is such a great river! It was nice chatting with you out on the water! We are hoping to float the river again so we might see you back out there!
so looking forward to those RR sunsets this summer!
I appreciate the comment! They are gorgeous in that valley. I can’t wait to go back!
Looked like a great trip. Awesome video and editing aswell. Best ive seen come out of Alberta!
It was a great experience! I’m glad you enjoyed the video! There will be more to come in the future!
That's amazing catching!
@@olegzhyvotkov9167 Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
Just watched this again, hoping for a similar trip this year
@@adventuringspiders2664 Absolutely! We’ll definitely be back there together this summer!
Going on a trip soon, and I might give this place a try
@@rickandmortyfan649 It’s a great location for fishing. I was just recently there and caught some incredible fish! That will be in my next video!
@MainstreamAngling cool! I'll keep a lookout for it. My mom sent me this video, because we wanna go for walleye, but haven't had much luck recently. She's pretty much my mentor for fishing, though my uncles in Newfoundland introduced me to it when I was 8. I hope they're hungry when we arrive!
@MainstreamAngling by the way, you just earned a new subscriber
@@rickandmortyfan649 Very cool! Fishing is a great activity to do with family! For the walleye your best bet is to fish the deep pools by slowly hopping a 3 inch swimbait along the bottom. Best of luck out there!
@@rickandmortyfan649 I appreciate all the support! It really means a lot!
Awesome video guys! Gets me pumped up for summer. One thing you might want to note for future fishing on the Red Deer River, bait is illegal upstream of Tolman bridge, including those scented Powerbait Power Minnows you’re using (aside from maggots, which are allowed so people can fish whitefish). Would you guys have caught as many with unscented ones like Jackall? Almost definitely, but just wanted to make sure you guys, or anyone watching your videos, don’t get fined if CO’s roll up on you and you’re unaware.
Absolutely! Gonna be having to get back out to the Red Deer River soon! All the plastics I used in the video were unscented. However I appreciate you bringing this to my attention!
Fantastic video and I agree with Sean; your editting is really slick.
Thank you very much! I appreciate the comment!
Nice place bud I used to live around the place but I never know this fishing spot
It’s a great location! I appreciate the comment!
Yer on yer way kid🎉
I appreciate it!
Stumbled across your video and loved it! Production quality is great.
Are there any fish you can keep in that river?
The regulations are based on the location pf where you are fishing the river. But downstream from a certain area there becomes an open limit for pike and walleye. And I believe that you can keep goldeye everywhere. I’m m glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you for commenting!
Great video my guy
I appreciate it!
nice video, nice walleye. my dream is to start at the Tolman Bridge to the border or the end of the reddeer River. camp and fish.
thanks for another great video
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! That trip from Holman to the border sounds like a blast! You should definitely do it if given the opportunity! I appreciate all the support Justin!
@MainstreamAngling just waiting on the lottery lol, or retirement
@@JustinHallowesOutdoors Ahh I gotcha. Hopefully the first one!🤞
Nice, how long was the float? Good vibes
Thanks for watching! The float took just over 6 hours but we had a few stops. Hope this helps! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
What was your start location and put in. Looks great.
It was McKenzie Crossing Campground. I appreciate the support!
Landing nets are worth their weight in gold...keeps angler's fingers out of the fish's gills
I agree in the usefulness of landing nets, we had forgotten ours. But with that being said, the way we held the fish was perfectly fine. I agree to not touch the gills as it could result in the fish having respiratory problems in the future. However, the way I was holding the walleye was by the gill plate, which does not harm the fish at all. I’m a big believer in conservation and I have quite a bit of experience holding fish like this. I appreciate your concern for the fish but I assure you they were all release very well.
You gotta de bard your hooks!
Perfectly legal to have em barbed.
Whatcha using?
