Clayton you are a joy to watch. I am glad you are showing the world all the awesome fishing northern manitoba has to offer. I'm looking forward to seeing the big Athapap video.
Great Video Clayton! Love your promotion of fishing in MB, how to properly handle fish when caught, and your promotion of protecting our pristine waters from the spread of Aquatic Invasive Species.
Thank you Clayton. You inspire me. Watching you makes my day. Keep up the videos. Ever lose your enthusiasm. So many “professionals” always act so cold. Like it is work.
I can honestly say I have never lost the enthusiasm, and I think that comes from the guiding side of me. I have been in the industry for 20 years now and I get excited every time I am on the water or the ice :) Thank you for the kind words!!
Man Clayton wow ! You always make the vids so enjoyable , between you ,Jay Seimens & Tom Boley ,I gotta say you my favourite ,though it would be very kool to see y'all go at it & do a video ,fishing's dream team,Lol ! Just wondering you ever fish Leech Lake Minnesota or the Hubbard county area of Minnesota ? Keep em' coming ,look forward to the next again thanks for sharing be blessed .
Watching this fall bite is getting me excited, will definitely have to make a trip to the fam in laws resort at clearwater lake to get some fat Lakers, hopefully I see you out at lake of the prairies this winter, slamming walleyes. Cheers man and thanks for the great content.
You sir, are a special kind of fisher! Love the upbeat pace of tracking the target lakers, but knocking off a master angler whitey and Wally in the process. Bucket list day for sure. Hope to see a couple more “soft” water vids before ice season gets going. Watching you try to vid and run the net makes me want to reach out and hold the camera for you, so you can focus on the fish. Great late season action! Tight lines, and hard bites.
Watching your videos enspires my to fish when life and responsibilities make it challenging watching your enthusiasm and dedication and how hard you fish by yourself gives me that little extra motivation to get out there and put the extra work in and fish thanks for sharing 👌
Am I the only who had a heart attack when the depth finder jumped to 1 ft? Nightmare fuel. Great vid! Love to see donkeys like that walleye (and whitefish)!
Love your videos Clayton! Days like this are the ones all of us Anglers dream of. Thanks for the videos on fishing in Manitoba. Didn't know much about it until I started watching you guys from out there :) I definitely want to make a trip there to tighten up some lines.
Still waiting for UA-cams algorithm to work its self out and get this channel to the millions of followers it deserves!! Another great video with honest genuine content keep it up!!!
Cool looking lake with tons of little islands! Lakes like that are usually great for holding Perch, Pike and Walleye, (Geez, that was a tank of a Walleye!!) with Laker's still a bit deeper I always found in Fall. Should of kept that Whitefish for the smoker or just to bake in the oven, an under appreciated sportfish. Good Luck on your quest for the "Ginormous" lunker Lake Trout, can't wait for your next video, Clayton!! Keep well!!
I'm sure we have all forgotten to put the plug in atleast once before lol .. I almost did it again last weekemd launching for a tournament.. remembered when I was backing the boat up and was right on the water line 🤣
Love the videos Clayton! Especially loved this one as we fished Big Athapap for the second time this year. Not much luck on the Lakers but that's partly due to mostly putting around and marking reefs in hopes of getting out to the juicy stuff without issue. We started out from Cranberry this year so it was a little unnerving after a few near misses on those menacing reefs. Either way, we loved it and my wife and I are already talking about the plan for going back to Athapap this Spring...maybe even some ice fishing first?? Anyway, keep up the good work!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors ...actually you fish most of the lakes I do as well. I'm from Melville and worked with your mom and played ball with your dad. I see you around from time to time...I'll be sure to say hi next time. Was always super interested in you mom's updates as to what you were up to as she knows I love to fish.
Love the show Clayton, I'm an east coast guy (NB) love my brookies and stripers haha, your lakers are pretty glorious though, keep up the great content!
Oh man I missed seeing ya doing your magic with those Lakers! Once the border is opened up I would love a chance to fish with ya! (Dare I say it...I'd rather fish with CS than Uncut!)
This time of year it's strictly river steelhead for me, but mainly it's archery deer hunting. Any hunting videos coming up? What's the difference between the orange fin and white fin Lakers, do they taste the same?
There will be some hunting videos for sure this year :) In this case the different colors are just their spawn colors I believe.... They do taste the same yup
Very Nice! You need to come down to Wyoming and teach me a thing or two.... or twenty.... lol! Love your channel, hopefully, someday mine can be half as good!
I should take u to reindeer lake for ice fishing this winter bud just let me know if u wanna go or make plans I’ll b happy to take u out and show u some good spots for big lakers
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors Boy, talk about a quick reply, I hadn't even finished reading the comments yet. lol Thanks for the info on water depth. I asked because I figured that spoon wasn't getting down very deep.
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors I was just trying to understand the spot you were fishing and how, simple curiosity. I wasn't making a comment on your fishing abilities or your amount of "learning." I know you're a good fisherman because I watch your videos... and keep the videos coming, please.
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors you definitely need to make a trip one day to southeast wisconsin and fish the Milwaukee harbor then! If you like sound of your drag screaming you’ll be more than satisfied when hook into one
clay I'd love to see a musky vid or 2 ..especially when u just said Lakers are harder fighting then skis .. obviously I'm a ski guy and would strongly disagree
Maybe one day! Most Musky fight are quick are they not? Never seen a Musky rip out 100 feet of solid drag :) All I am saying. But ya... you know what... A 40lb Lake Trout will out fight a 40lb Musky. Gonna stick with that one... :)
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors ya I get what your saying but also 100lb test for ski and 30ish for Lakers.. Lakers are fun don't gwt me wrong but u know how us musky guys are lol nothing beats em .. anyway love the vids man u my favorite fishing guy so keep it up and would be a awesome mix with u and some skis
I beg to differ, salmon are definitely the hardest fighting fresh water fish in North America, I fish lake Ontario, I catch salmon and lakers and lakers don't even compare to salmon
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors what kind of salmon were you catchin? The primary salmon on lake Ontario are king salmon which average around 15-20 lbs, ive had them take 500-800 foot runs before out on the boat out in 300fow

You make it look so easy. Can't wait to see some monster lake trout!
Just good editing :) Cheers!
Great video Clayton, I'm getting so pumped for ice fishing!
As am I!! Lots of videos planned!
Can't wait to explore the Baker's Narrows area next year! So few open water weekends up north here, gotta make the count!
Such a fun lake!!
Good video Clayton! I am huge fan of these bonanza's. Awesome colours on that laker.
Such a fun day!! Cheers man!
Keep them coming Clayton. Great video can’t wait for the next one
"Don't wanna forget that plug, Jay" 😂😂😂
Man Clayton that was awesome,looks like a great time.Thanks and keep em coming
Thank you for watching!
I'm sure that's nice being on that lake to graph a bunch for winter!
100%!!
I'm sure we have all forgotten to put the plug in atleast once before lol .. I almost did it again last weekemd launching for a tournament.. remembered when I was backing the boat up and was right on the water line 🤣
I have come VERY close to forgetting it, but have not launched without it in yet haha :)

👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 nice! Good thing you caught some good weather.
Great weather!
Damn glad to see your boy
awesome vid! looks like an amazing multi species day too
Thanks Clayton.
Cheers!
Meant you Clayton love your content can’t wait to watch you on the ice
Love the show Clayton, I'm an east coast guy (NB) love my brookies and stripers haha, your lakers are pretty glorious though, keep up the great content!
Thank you for watching!
Don't forget atlantic salmon.
Holeh open water laker video!! I thought I saw a pig fly this morning as well!! Thanks for posting always entertaining!
HAH sadly it's not the content you are thinking of though :) That I still have to edit.. Likely won't come out to the spring time now :(
Pretty sweet video. Love all the fish you caught.
Was a good day!!
Can't wait for ice fishing season. I'm ready to catch some big eyes
It will not be long!!
So nice!
Another quality video Clayton
Thank you for watching as usual!
When you said “are you kidding me!?” About the whitefish it reminded me of a certain other Manitoba based UA-cam fisherman... 🙂great video!
HAH!!! I know who you are talking about :)
Lol 😂
Oh man I missed seeing ya doing your magic with those Lakers! Once the border is opened up I would love a chance to fish with ya! (Dare I say it...I'd rather fish with CS than Uncut!)
Love it man!! Hopefully that border opens sooner than later!
Going to attempt lakers and hopefully splake in the ducks this weekend I’m sure it’ll be a grind
Completely off topic but was wondering what size tube jigs you use for lake trout fishing through the ice
This time of year it's strictly river steelhead for me, but mainly it's archery deer hunting. Any hunting videos coming up? What's the difference between the orange fin and white fin Lakers, do they taste the same?

Very Nice! You need to come down to Wyoming and teach me a thing or two.... or twenty.... lol! Love your channel, hopefully, someday mine can be half as good!
It's all about learning as you go :) I learn something every time I get on the water or ice :)
fun watch!
Was going to hit Reed lake or Simonhouse before going back to work, but it’s been crazy windy here inSnow Lake.
It's been so windy everywhere!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors Windy here today in Twin Cities Minnesota. Big cold front pushing through.
Watching on the 70-in, love your channel, Clayton!! Four specie's by 1:00!!!
oh man!! Would be sick to watch on the 70" !! Cheers!
Fish always look bigger, lol.
I should take u to reindeer lake for ice fishing this winter bud just let me know if u wanna go or make plans I’ll b happy to take u out and show u some good spots for big lakers
If I can make it work I would love to get up there man!!
Great video!! I'm debating to go one more time before ice.
But what is your prediction when you walk on first ice.
Really hard to know for sure.... Will all depend on the temps the next few weeks...
Great actions love it..
Cheers!
GREAT VIDEO. I NEED TO CHECK OUT LAKERS IN FALL. GO TO KISSISING EVERY JUNE NEVER GO IN FALL
I would love to hit up Kississing open water season too!
Awesome Awesome video!
63 lb laker which stood as the world record was caught on little Athapap. Actually not very far from where you caught that first laker
I have heard that story!
So much for writing my essay..
HA!! You deserve a short break :)
Can't wait for hard water on big windy
Me too! I will be there this year!!
How's the evinrude treating you?
I really enjoy your video's, Clayton. Nice cabin.
How deep was the water where you were casting the little cleo and got the trout?
Was about 3-6 feet deep :) very nice cabins!
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors Boy, talk about a quick reply, I hadn't even finished reading the comments yet. lol Thanks for the info on water depth. I asked because I figured that spoon wasn't getting down very deep.
@@thelonesomefisherman7425 you’re right. I was fishing it pretty shallow. Was a big learning day for sure.
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors I was just trying to understand the spot you were fishing and how, simple curiosity.
I wasn't making a comment on your fishing abilities or your amount of "learning." I know you're a good fisherman because I watch your videos... and keep the videos coming, please.
awesome buddy!
Cheers man! Look forward to some laker pics :)
Pound for pound, I’d say kings fight the hardest. But Lakers can definitely give em a run for their money!
I can't judge since I have never caught a king, but I believe it! :)
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors you definitely need to make a trip one day to southeast wisconsin and fish the Milwaukee harbor then! If you like sound of your drag screaming you’ll be more than satisfied when hook into one
Not even close . Big lakers bulldog and wrap in the line. A big chinook will straight spool you if your not prepared
Great video 👌
Cheers!
Fishing and afternoon naps LOL life is rough.
HA! Afternoon naps are the best!!
Going to try and catch my first laker from shore this weekend, any tips everyone?
Large casting spoons, silver and gold colors work great
@@kaderobillard3088 thank you so much! I have some Williams Warblers, I heard they are awesome!
Just like Kade says, anything you can cast out super far is the best bet :) 3/4 Little cleo spoons fly a mile!!
Or the good old uncut angling spoon!
(Lucky strike half wave)
How long and what model is the E6X that you're using for casting?
I will get the stats on the rod for you, remind me again, but its a 6'6" Bass rod :)
nice, how can i get hunt fish MB cap?
Yup, pike have feelings too. Angry and Angrier !
HAH :) Yup!
Master angler whitefish is 22" Had to stop your vid to look it up tho. Lol
HAH! I looked later that day too :)
little cleo all day
It's not "fall bite" mates, it's Clayton! ®️™️
HAH!! Cheers!

IF YOU CAN GET INTO MOLSON LAKE CLAYTON THAT IS THE PREMIER LAKER SPOT
oh ya? I will have to check it out!
Is that lake filled with canadian Beer ?
Why not upsize to 20 or 30lb fluoro when the risk of getting piked is high?
The spoon wont move as well, and the smaller lakers I feel will be a little line shy...
Do you like to eat trout? If so do a video!
Yes, I do and I will this winter for sure!
Where's Hunter?
I beg to differ, salmon are definitely the hardest fighting fresh water fish in North America, I fish lake Ontario, I catch salmon and lakers and lakers don't even compare to salmon
For sure. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I caught some Salomon once in BC. Wasn’t much of a fight....
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors what kind of salmon were you catchin? The primary salmon on lake Ontario are king salmon which average around 15-20 lbs, ive had them take 500-800 foot runs before out on the boat out in 300fow
@@jackfulton6696 chinook. Most salmon have the ability to be in salt water too right?
@@ClaytonSchickOutdoors yea, I believe all do tbh, its just great lakes salmon are land locked
I absolutely agree . I fish the Gorge in the lower Niagara and catch lakers and chinooks. Not even close. They don't call em kings for nothing.
Think you dropped an N in your title
Good catch!! I’ll fix it :). Thank you.
I think the leaves Nd dirty boat was good luck!
Right? I was sad, most of them blew out!!
