Chasing Smallmouth - BWCA Wilderness: Dream Kayak Fishing Trip!! - DAY 2 -

[@xX4estXx]

I swear, fishing is one of the most peaceful things ever. Just thinking about this kind of scenery jerks my tears, and to be able to do this would cross a major check off my bucket list.

Ben, your trip brings back memories of a magical evening on Crab Lake many years. We went out about 6-ish as the sun got low on the horizon, the wind died down and the lake shown like a mirror. Perfect topwater time. On just about every cast we were catching smallmouth. I guess I am showing my age when I say I was fishing a Jitterbug and Bass-oreno, but they sure did the trick that night. From what I can remember, most were in the 15-16" range with a couple pushing 18" so I can't complain. Thanks for bringing back the memories. If you don't mind sharing, what lake were you on?

Great video! Found your channel off Matt’s channel... seems like a bucketlist destination for sure! 🤘

[@YakFishMN]

Thanks for checking it out!! It was a really solid trip.

[@upnorthkayakfishing3159]

I really need to get up that way! Perfect video and liked the voice over.

[@YakFishMN]

Thanks man! Appreciate you checking It out!

[@dzborn2fish]

Awesome man!!

[@YakFishMN]

Thanks brother! ✌️

The spook nicely imitates a fleeing bait fish. I would use a sturdy leader with it, they are pike magnets! I miss the bwca, i used to go every year...

[@YakFishMN]

Thanks for checking it out MT ✌️

If you don’t mind sharing what lake and entry point. Been up to the Boundary waters a couple time already but fishing was slow. Thanks for sharing.

[@beersyb1033]

If you don't mind what lake, or ep. With kayaks how do you get your camping gear in?. It seems it would difficult to bring more than 2-3 days of gear or more than 1-2 portages.. Great video. Thanks.

[@odelldaniel7868]

what entry point did you use, I've fished the upper and lower Kiwishiwi river a few times, just looking for some advice on a different area, we're coming from Ohio in September.

[@golfish8589]

Try a Rebel teeny pop r. And work it s l o w l y. Also. Dont crank your real with no line coming in. It twists your line. When my brother and I head up there . 95% of our fishing is topwater. My advice. Dont miss a minute of daylight morning and evening. Low light calm water. During the day fish the shadows as much as possible. When were you there. I didn't see any spawning nests

[@vins859]

sweet video, what lake was this on?

[@6412mars]

I dont know if its my device or what..i just started watching and can barely hear ya buddy...dont matter though..some great fishin there man!..just wondering about that lake..its like a huge creek..lol..how deep is it? all shallow like what ive seen? thanks for the vid.

[@YakFishMN]

Yea it’s weird.... on my cell and on my headphones I edit with it sounds perfect. Then I turn on my TV and it sounds really weird.... learning on the fly is hard sometimes.... I tell ya. Thanks for the constructive feedback. This body of water has a max depth of about 35 ft. I was targeting shallow flats for almost of the day! Was fun to sight fish them! Thanks for your constructive feedback and for checking out my channel!!
