“Some kind of hexagonal rod”.

Such a beautiful moment

Great job, liked how you did some close up video of the paint. Good color choice too. We have a sled trailer with DynaMax fiber strand floor. I'd like to add the Deck over product to enhance the water resistance of the engineered flooring.

Hey Jacob, where did you put in and take out? Im trying to float the Tuck soon and having trouble figuring out which stretch to do. I am in a 16' fiberglass drift boat

Ever heard of a debarbed hook and a net?

Jacob that is a nice desk! I used to own a very old roll top desk. Aesthetically it was pleasing but honestly it was meant for letter writing and all of the accoutrements, pens, paper etc. it really was not a good Tying Desk. Too many weird books and crannies that swallowed up many small things over the years. When I sold that house, i left the desk behind. Your Rolltop is beautifully designed, specifically for tying and you made out like a Bandit. Well done! Nowadays I use a small meeting table made for an office. What got me interested was that it was Free and advertised as a "Boat Shaped," table. This was pretty cool and I put some cabinets on it. Thanks for sharing your desk with us! It was very kind!

Epic

Nice Video, thanks for taking us along.

From a local to the area, that ain't no secret spot, look how worn the trail is. Hell, everyone from here to Florida knows where that's at...

Awesome hike.. I love hiking up ther

Every Time we go -- we choose to use the metal fire ring that the park placed there...but we have to clean out the trash and ash first or you can not get air under the "ring" to make a decent burn... -- I am not suggesting it BUT -- not sure why we permit up -- I have never seen a ranger in there. - . The NC Side of the park gets very little supervision. Maybe Park it Forward might change that -- but very unlikely -- the money will go into the salaries of upper management and for popular TN stops.

Thanks for the vid!! How's the paint/floor holding up? This seems like a great idea.

You call that in depth review, you havnt tested it yet in the REAL WORLD! 🤪🤦🏻

Hack, not a sportsman when you don't know how to handle fish (TROUT) ESPECIALLY IN DELAYED HARVEST WATER WHERE OTHER PEOPLE LIKE CATCHING TROUT TOO, AND NOT DEAD ONES!!! GROW UP

I appreciate you doing what you love but I certainly wish you would learn how to handle trout always wet your hands and keep them in the water in a net while you're trying to get the hook out and release them The salt on your hands will ruin their skin take the slime off and possibly kill them. If you go back to the same place a day or two later and see fish floating belly side up you'll know why and what you've done It's really pretty simple to take care of our fishery You should try it spread the word among your friends

Awesome time on the river. I have to check this area of the Kern.

Nice. I thought you paid $5000.....i really wanted to laugh

Congrats on that Big Brown Jacob. What creek is that? Thinking of heading that way this weekend!

Gave u a thumbs down for not wetting your hands before handling them..

I can't believe you guys left the Sierras to come to Hazel creek.

What were your expenses for the trip? Boat cost, camp sites, stuff like that

Please don’t handle our Tuck trout, or any trout with gloves on or dry hands. Those who live here enjoy catching 80+ trout in a day and we would like to keep it that way. Taking the membrane off the trout can kill them within minutes. Getting skunked in the tuck is nearly impossible btw lol😂. Glad you enjoyed the day.

Thanks for sharing! What setup are you fishing with?

Was 1 gallon enough? I have the same trailer thank you

Nice! What were you using?

Great trip thanks

Nice work!

Question one; that day was there no generation, 1 or 2? Question two, did your other fisherman park at take out? Did you use a shuttle service? Thanks

That's really incredible man! Congrats! Now, you have me on the look out out for a gem like this!

Nice video on the scadden dragonfly. I have a dragonfly xt2 pro guide I love it. Maybe see on the truck.

What site were ya'll on

Great, great presentation Jacob! What a buy! Three Ben’s? Wow! Such a beautiful piece of woodwork!

All the people asking for handouts on where to go, figure it out! When everyone spot burns and flocks to those spots those spots lose their magic. He told you the river now go explore and find your own spot. And when you find yourself a honey hole of your own don't blast it youtube. Planters are one thing that's fine but wild trout populations especially in california are fragile and can only take so much angling pressure

I guess the real question here is were you able to find suitable branches to actually hang the bag on the Colorado trail or did you sleep with it/just tie it to a tree?

Lmfao do not buy these lol just look at the site they can’t even photo shop good!! Like it’s 100% a scam and your better off getting Walmart boxers over these..

My great grandma was about 8-9 when her dad moved her and her family moved off of Hazel Creek. I always take my hat off when I pass it.

Nice work! Interesting that they were nearly all hens.

I wear Smart wool . They are about $49. retail. No odor. I hand wash them in Nickwax wool wash and some Pine Sol because I love Pine SOl and its a great natural cleaner and one of the only smells bears hate..(I live in Alaska) Smart wool is not 100% but close to it. I hang dry them. I did not like the Icebreakers but Icebreakers are well made. If you want your undies to last longer do not put them in a hot dryer.

We have fished Hazel Creek for the last 20+ years. Many locals spin cast rather than fly fish in the upper regions of the creek due to the overgrowth. Day- trippers tend to fish the lower 2-3 miles, but above your Campsite (“Sawdust Pile” BC Campsite #85) is the better water and larger fish. Farther up the creek, above Bone Valley (Campsite #83) and in many of the small feeder streams you will find our native species of trout (they are technically a “Char”) locally called “Specs” or Speckled Trout. Where the pools begin to get smaller they can compete with Rainbows and Brown Trout. I would suggest that if you make it out this way again, you come in late March - Mid April. You will be able to avoid the early fishing pressure the streams get later in the year. We always go in on a Sunday and usually have miles of creek entirely to ourselves. There is a lot of local history you can research on line of the Smokey’s and explore there if you are interested… ruins of sawmills, mines, mountain home places, cemeteries etc. I enjoyed your video, thanks for posting it. If this comment interests you, you may like my video “Ugly Guys On Hazel Creek”. Thanks for visiting us & Good Fishing!

Bass fishing has been a little tough lately for me between everything going on hopefully soon my dad will take some time to take me out fishing but for now I am filming me at my local creek!!!! #bigcreeksteppa

Take any water temps????

I just started tying too. I’ll have to try this out

I love love love this!

jacob great cover song, bye morgan wallen! like 1!

Subscribed! I live on the coast but I'm currently obsessed with trout fishing so I'm living vicariously through you.

Great video Jacob. This is on my bucket list but it has been closed due the fire we had up there. How far did you hike in from the parking lot? Thanks.

How far up from the little kern crossing was this? Some areas looked familiar but others did not. I know that area pretty well. It is one of my favorite places on the planet. It will be amazing this year when it opens up after being closed for a couple of seasons.

Caught any browns this year?

Based on experience, the rewards of fishing Hazel creek are no longer matched by the effort and expense required to access it. Lots of better alternatives than this once great creek.
