Good Video PK 😊. Love lake trout fishing 🎣 especially High mountain lakes fishing.

[@edquier40]

Those calm waters are complimented very well with the overcast sky, I never have luck with sun on the water catching fish. I love the expression on your face @ 08:19, we are all shouting FISH ON but you cannot hear us! PK, you always have great content, wonderful show, thanks for posting!

[@edquier40]

The sound was excellent on this video! Thanks to that new guy "Mike" Lots of cutthroat trout in Humboldt County @ Big Lagoon,

[@hosgs14]

I need to get my kayak on the water and get some fishing done. Great vid PK.

[@hxhdfjifzirstc894]

Wow, that was a nice trout! And that's a great call to let the bigger ones go.

[@brotherbax4083]

Nice job PK! Good day at Olalla. Hope to fish with you there again soon.

[@SQ_og]

Interesting seeing the changes to the Scotty mounts

[@Zach-K7FC]

Audio sounds great.

[@ecksdog]

Agree. Perfect

[@darrellkelly7614]

Audio was as good as the fishin😊

[@kylestrayer8356]

That number 3 fish was a good 1

[@F-N-C]

That was a beautiful trout

[@joaneng2374]

Wish I could send a pic. My 6 yr old grandson just pulled a 15" trout out of the lake!!!

[@slacktide_angler]

The coloration on that larger trout was beautiful.. you should create a GoPro underwater release cam mount ;)

[@ronmodafferi8202]

PK One of those fish was really bending your rod "lots" while you were busy tending chores. Can you tell more about the lice/leaches? Don't think I ever saw any in fresh water trout. Must be grass around heard lots of "pooping", geese. Your kayak looks to be super well equipped for comfortable fishing. Nice enjoyable video with great commentary!!!

[@oregonlife]

Oh man, I always miss those bites. I think those lice are called copepods. They are pretty common on stocked trout, especially when the water warms up, or when the trout has been in the lake for a long time.

[@ronmodafferi8202]

@@oregonlife Got it! Copepods; I know of them. Thanks for reply, buddy!

[@84CORVETTEBILL]

Where are you? Couldn’t catch the area you mentioned…. Looks beautiful

[@DoubleADay]

I have to say I only eat wild trout. I've never enjoyed planters

[@michaelmullen8153]

Mushers

[@otitan1]

I agree, pet fish are not as tasty

[@inventoryking]

PK, have you ever fished for the sea run cutthroats? I bet those taste great.

[@oregonlife]

I have not but have been meaning to. Not sure where to go for them. They definitely taste great.

[@inventoryking]

@@oregonlife - They are on my bucket list this year. I heard second half of Aug and first half of Sep is a good time to go to the coastal streams

[@johnhobbs7697]

😊

[@samparks1141]

Were they all rainbow trout?

[@RatdogDRB]

Just out of curiosity, why did you get rid of your new boat? It looked small enough to be pretty economical to run/own.

[@oregonlife]

Yes it was. But I was using the kayak more and more, and I got 2 kayaks now. Wasn't using the boat much so I sold it before the resale value went too low.

[@84CORVETTEBILL]

Hey all… Thoughts on scent? I’ve never seen a difference. Anyone got a strong argument for using it? Thanks!

[@Astromalcolm]

Where were u at this day?

[@andriydemchuk601]

Looks like olalla lake near Toledo oregon

[@justintime41776]

Such a beautiful place.

[@oregonlife]

Olalla Reservoir, Toledo, OR

[@normanwood2476]
