100 Hours ALONE in the FRIGID NORTH : Brutal Cold Last Chance

[@savior5315]

New subscriber here. I’ve been following Joes 21-22 season and watching his archived episodes and I will say he has my respect as an outdoorsman and all around good dude, the world needs more people like Joe Holland. Thanks for sharing the expeditions man we all appreciate the effort and work you put into this.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Humbly thank you!

[@harveylockwood3266]

I have been to Maine good luck fishing, from Canada

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you!

[@johnguay1859]

I think I will start calling you "Forty Below Joe". You must put a lot of time into planning and prep, you seem so comfortable in your surroundings. Keep the good content coming, love the channel.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you, i love the nickname!

[@Ryan-rx8ie]

The legend joe Holland with another hour long upload!!!! You are absolutely KILLING it this year Joe , content and editing is top notch. It’s hard to talk into a camera and keep people interested, you have a gift my friend … your knowledge is extensive, absolutely love watching your videos I learn something new every time! We appreciate all the hard work joe 🙏🏼

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you!

[@jameyroy7344]

Another great episode Joe. Keep the adventures rolling! You're doing an outstanding job with this channel!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Very much appreciate it, thank you.

[@workingclasswoodsman]

Great video Sir. I can totally relate to the story you shared about carrying buckets. I played those games when I was shoveling roofs or shoveling out trees for a logging outfit. I could shovel 150 trees a day at the end of the winter. I learned a lot about myself and what I could actually do physically. My coldest night outside was -17° on Valentine's Day weekend 1998. It was just after the ice storm and all I heard was crashing trees all night. I'm not going to lie to you, I was scared. I also felt stupid for not realizing the danger of falling trees after that storm. I was in a tent in a 20° bag. It was cold. Cold enough to freeze my water bottle. I got some coffee going in the morning and felt good about getting through the night. It was the coldest night of my life. Keep making videos, you're very good at it.. WCW

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you, I remember that ice storm like yesterday, it was nuts.

[@jamesspear4536]

Your tougher than an old Grizzlie!! Great job thanks for the show!!!🐟

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thanks buddy

[@shawnpiquette5361]

Wow cold times you're one example of someone who can though the cold. Hats off to you. I'd still love to show my my set up for fishing incase of no live bait they are wind jiggers... I'd be happy to show you how I make them thanks joe

[@JoeHollandFishing]

I appreciate it.

[@guidoguido8677]

Joe is like frosty the snowman, he brings joy to us all and melts every spring..

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you hahaha, good call.

[@bigfish322]

Thank you!

[@lesjames3221]

You are a beast Joe, great camera work in those conditions.... Been Bing watching your camping videos these winter. Thank you for keeping cold in bed!!! Be safe😎🤟🤙🇱🇷

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Glad you like them! Thank you.

[@aaronward4918]

Joe. Big big fan of your work. Been watching for 2+ years and last winter decided I wanted to try my hand at staying overnight on the ice. Happened to be one of the coldest nights I remember in a long time out on moosehead -32 last I remember. But because of watching your videos I was more than prepared for it. Thanks for the confidence you give other people that want to try it. Me and my uncle are already planing the next trip. Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to this year's content. God bless

[@JoeHollandFishing]

That’s awesome my friend thanks for sharing ! Means a lot to me that I could help

[@zbhowell]

Keep em coming Joe! Love the videos and the stories. You’re just a genuine and likable type a guy. The story at the end of the end of this one was great. I’ve thought about that for a long time and have had a hard time putting into words as well as you did. Pushing oneself in every aspect of life definitely makes future tasks in the future that would have seemed huge at one point feel smaller. Working hard as a younger guy, running chainsaws, rolling logs, clearing brush, helping my pops with tasks definitely helped me with many challenges in life. Anyways, thanks Joe! Zach in Michigan.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Awesome thank you

[@stevewiedenheft5071]

You should do a 200 hour trip. Thanks for the great content. I enjoy your episodes. Blessings!!!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Sounds good to me thank you!

[@joshwillard6535]

Joe your content is truly truly world class ! The camera angles and drone shots make for a super enjoyable show . Your farm oriented work ethics come through in every new series . Where do we vote for Master Angler of Maine???! Thanks so much.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you so much, humbled!

[@lloydatkins9698]

My hands hurt just watching you.Your new sled sure is sweet and starts great.Another great series.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you

[@smallfishbigpond5047]

I completely relate to your story of carrying buckets and pushing and challenging oneself. I was fortunate enough to have similar experiences growing up with an older brother who pushed me to do more on our hobby farm. Then I worked on dairy farms here in Wisconsin milking cows and baling hay. All those experiences helped shape who I am today. Thank you for being you and pontificating and telling these stories. I really appreciate them!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you!

[@davecook7355]

Awesome Joe!!!! Happy fishing!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you!

[@theganderman8627]

Joe- great series, and the content is really good this ice season. You are showing us all how it’s done. Smart and conscious with the weather, and the can-do tenacity you have is awesome. It’s super hard to grind when it’s that cold. Mad Respect, enjoy the Muskie meat😉👍

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you!

[@zackpotter765]

Recently discovered your channel and now you may be my new favorite KZbin channel! Keep up the hard work! I truly enjoy your ice fishing content and can’t wait to try winter camping myself!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@mjgergely6201]

I’m going to drive some supper in me tonight and sit back to watch Joe battle some serious frosty temperatures.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Good Call!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you!

[@sare1052]

Hi Joe, love all the video work you’re doing. I just started doing a bit of ice fishing after recovering from a broken leg a year or so ago. Not an easy go. I really enjoy your injection of the history of places or areas you are visiting. Really liked when you and Donny found the axe heads and horse shoes! I was hoping you could list the books you recommended , in the comments. I’m having a hard time finding the references. Keep up the good work!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you will try and throw a list together

[@PhotonChief]

This was a long one, but I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts the last couple episodes. You can't beat farm/backwoods philosophy.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Cool thank you, Yeah last two episodes little longer, Thanks for the feedback wasn't sure if I should have cut that out or not.

[@denisdeisinger2414]

Joe thanks for the excellent content you put out! Watched your overnight camping video the first time I saw you. I went out 1 overnight so far and it was a blast! Keep up the great work I really enjoy your videos.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you!

[@fishinwithjacobo9903]

Can’t wait for this vid!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you

[@keithmcallister4917]

Burr that was some cold temperatures 🥶 awesome video. I made it out fishing again this week on Kezar lake in Lovell been two days and not one flag but still a good time spent on the ice with my dogs.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Good times!

[@coreygraham3572]

Long time viewer 1st time commenter. Great video Joe. I enjoy those types of adventures when work and family allow. Health tip for you- invest in some waterproof gloves and avoid exposing your hands to the cold water and cold air when they are wet. After years of winter trapping, icefishing, winter coyote hunting, sledding and working outdoors on stuff my hands are very sensitive to cold now. It limits my activities at times.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you, I am trying harder each time to wear gloves more per recommendations.

[@snappyobx201]

Awesome video as always waiting on the Moose head video!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you, hopefully get one in.

[@Rat-ret]

I really love your vids. I look forward to watching them. Your hard core. Keep up the great work. Cheers.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Awesome Best of luck!

[@scottblock6832]

Great video Joe.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thanks 👍

[@sallyfrenette9643]

Great video! Now I really can't wait to get a Muskie! I grew up on a dairy farm so I can relate to the bucket marks in the snow. Lol And, yes some time alone is always so calming. I can't wait for a few more weeks to go by. It's really pretty there too. Can't wait for your next adventure! East Grand? West Grand?

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you. Dairy Farm was one of the best things to happen to me. I learned so many valuable lessons there. Next trip might be a remote lake with heavy law limitations with a great old friend.

[@sethprince1820]

The underwater Muskie shot was awesome!!!!!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Im still seeing it every time I close my eyes!

[@jimcross4990]

Oh my word Joe, those were some brutal temperatures that you had to deal with. That was crazy. But glad to see you made it through without any problems. I enjoyed your story towards the end. That was great!..and being a morning person myself?...I love breakfast anytime of the day. So that was cool to see that big meal for dinner. 😁

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Awesome thanks for the feedback.

[@Ryan-rx8ie]

Love the farm stories!!!

[@jimcross4990]

@@Ryan-rx8ie absolutely!..gotta love the stories as well 👍

[@jackjackandstope8983]

Hey Joe .Cheers from Sudbury Ont .Love your videos been watching you for a while now. You've inspired me to try overnights this winter but I am also big boned . What brand of cot are you using and do you recommend it. Thanks in advance and don't stop making those videos.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

That's awesome Thank you.Here is the link to the one I purchased. amzn.to/3trt4EX

[@roastntoast7550]

I never eat a muskie. I wish we some muskies around Europe, I would try it immediately. I like the taste of northern pike anyway. Have a good one Joe! Great video bud.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you! I heard they are great.

[@daviddraper7364]

awesome vid joe keep them coming !!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thanks! Will do!

[@jj-eo7bj]

Check out the nuway vented propane stove ...should work good

[@JoeHollandFishing]

My Buddy Brandon has been using them, looks good.

[@johnhurley3173]

Hey Joe, you are amazing !!! Great content, learn so much from you!!, Plus I love your humor.. Glad I found your videos! Question for you, since your holes are always freezing would those black rubber hole covers work or is it better to fish with sunlight go through the ice so the fish see your bait!? Thanks Joe!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

The hole covers will work. I need to start using them. Will try and incorporate them next series. thanks.

[@bigcat.mattyahoo]

Ok thanks do u have any videos on how to work them and set them up?

[@JoeHollandFishing]

yes the series should show that

[@stephensmith2458]

Love your fishing series ..try the book fifty years the hunter and trapper

[@JoeHollandFishing]

I'll check it out! Thank you

[@roastntoast7550]

Dead bait worked well! By piercing the swim bladder, the bait also gives off its smell better. This makes it easier for the predatory fish to find it. In what diameter do you use the fluorocarbon? I use DIA 1.1mm...even a northern pike can cut it if its thinner. Great video as always Joe!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you! Its a thick 30lb test.

[@precisionanglingYT]

Another good one Joe!!!!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you my friend,

[@kmcdonald3766]

Man that's cold. I remember in 94 in Sherman it was _40 or below the whole month of February and I'm a heating tech I remember it well. Haven't experienced it since

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Wow that must have frozen some pipes!

[@fierceoutdoors]

Thanks for the great video once again, stay safe in those dangerous temps. In Minnesota our regs on muskies are strict so I’ve never eaten one before.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

For sure thank you.

[@richshackelford5793]

Great seriyJoe, a yellow perch beat down would be nice to see.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Cool, I will try and work one in. Thank you.

[@georgecayer7234]

Joe what is the new software you are using and commented on in this video? I have tons of go pro and drone videos, mostly hunting, deer bear and some archery and some great fly fishing trips in the fall with my colleagues just having a hard time editing it into something that looks good. I love technology but using some of the apps on the phone are not easy. Thanks and I really enjoy your videos. Keep it up👍

[@JoeHollandFishing]

I switched over to Davinci Resolve, Its on my computer.

[@TheJenkins124]

Wow Joe that is cold. Nice setup. Coll tip using the sled cover to keep your bed dry. Curious what strength/brand of line do you use for the colored line? Following form western Canada.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you, Its the waxed nylon by Woodstock 30-45 lb test.

[@rpulver9]

Doin great this year Joe, always look forward to the next video. So cool watching a local guy succeed at what he loves! I’m sure you have read the mike bowditch series by Paul Doiron. But if not check them out!

I have not thank you,

I'm from up in Northern Maine, well at least further north than you are in the video. Fist on the St John and where your last Musky video was. We eat them all the time. Deep fried, deep fried fish sandwiches, fish chowder, or even just baked always fantastic. White and flakey and takes on whatever you cook it with. Plus the bones double as tooth picks!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thanks for the tips!

Just found your channel and have been enjoying your videos. Two books about the New England outdoors that I really like are We Took To The Woods by Louise Dickinson Rich, a true story that takes place near Richardson Lake in Maine and Look To The Mountain by LeGrand Cannon Jr., a novel that takes place in and around the Lakes Region of NH.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

I have read the first one but not the second, Thank you,

[@richardsabean5781]

Read Edmond Ware Smith ,, Up River and Down and all his books of short stories,, you'll love em!!

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Thank you

[@fishlovme]

Wisconsin has native muskies and stocked. Mostly stocked in the southern half and mostly native in the northern half. We have such strict limits and a short season on them that rarely anyone ever keeps one. For Example, I live in the southern end of the state and some of the lakes that have them by me have a 50 inch minimum, which at that point is pretty much a trophy fish. 32 inch is our statewide minimum on lakes that don't have special regulations. And by the way, our state fish is the muskellunge. And I've heard both "muskies" and "muskie" for the plyral form, so who knows?

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Awesome thanks for the info.

[@brewsandbass5572]

Crazy. You'll be ice-fishing into June

[@JoeHollandFishing]

Dream come true!

[@JohnGagnon-b8v]

You should have a cover for your sled to keep the wind from it when it is really cold You can keep the cold wind off it start better probably

[@JoeHollandFishing]

good point.

[@benrogers5808]

Do you think if your Eskimo was 1200 denier like the Otter that you’d have such a frost problem? I have a Clam 1200 denier and an Otter like the one you have. I’ve never had a frost problem with the Clam that’s why I went with the Otter for a X-Over.

[@JoeHollandFishing]

I think frost is just the difference between inside warmer than colder outside just like a vehicle this time of year.

[@journey_w_John]

Hey Joe I’m not sure if it’s this video or not. In one you are eating a cheese that you say is the best cheese you’ve ever eaten and was made with maple cream. Do you remember or know what it was called?

[@JoeHollandFishing]

I’m the one for sure I gotta do some soul searching and find it or remember it . Was a farm in Maine they did a few blends

[@bigcat.mattyahoo]

Hey joe bigcatmatt here your buddy from Minnesota 350 pounder any way would traps work here I grow up on just regular tip ups probably dumb question but also please make video on how u did the wood around that otter sled thanks signed bigcatmatt big and beautiful large and in charge

Just thinking about an Insulated Canvas Bag ( or something similar ) to protect the Propane tank outside in the Cold ( or even that new High-sided wooden box you built for your Otter Sled , you could maybe Cut a small hole in the back side of it for the Propane hose and even put a cover on it to protect it further from the Snow and elements ) ways ???

[@huntforlife3997]

Always love the videos but it is for sure sad to see some one keep a musky

[@JoeHollandFishing]

It’s like anything in nature, there needs to be culls whether it is deer, bear, moose, Brook trout, salmon , pike, or Muskie. This particular lake is now stunted from 29-36 because the Muskie have overtaken it and there is very little forage now. It is overrun with Muskie if you can believe it. I think the best thing for the lake would be to keep a lot of them but where as I don’t need to Keep any I decided to let almost all of them go. If 50 percent of them were culled or harvested the remaining fifty percent would be able to grow much larger . Right now it doesn’t produce any over 36 inches with the majority being 30 inches. In Maine there is actually no size or bag limit on them and all of them can be kept. It’s a weird thing. Does the harvest or cull make sense?

[@johngaber8451]
