BUMPY BOAT RIDE AND PLENTY OF BIG CHINOOK SALMON! - Kyuquot Vancouver Island BC | Fishing with Rod

[@justingallardo6901]

Learned some new tips, thanks !

[@FishingwithRod]

Justin Gallardo Thanks for watching!

[@tiffanywelton5116]

Hey Rodney, have you hooked squid while salmon fishing in saltwater?

[@FishingwithRod]

No. It's unlikely that would happen. For squid fishing, you gotta use jigs specially designed for them.

[@sergueiserboz4185]

Great fishing....!!!! Congratulations...!!! You seem to enjoy so much....Regards from Argentina

[@FishingwithRod]

Thank you! :)

[@silverback7659]

Hey Rod, I'm headed down to the west coast is august on a charter for salmon. I'm nervous of the whole sea sickness thing. Do you have any tips to avoid getting sick? Great content btw! Cheers

[@skateboardcraze]

natural gravel the night before, and morning. and ive also heard cotton in the ears helps from an old timer sailor, maybe its worth a try

[@rtang25]

Your videos got me so pumped up to try an ocean adventure. I booked an all day adventure out of Sooke for Halibut. 2 hours in and I had to throw in the towel. I won't be taking the ginger Gravol again. Now I have no desire to go out ever. What do you do to prepare for boat rides?

[@MrKveite1]

Kitty is agressive and wants to reel in every damn salmon lol, i enjoyed that:)

[@kittykanhoffen3832]

MrKveite1 I'll keep that in mind for this year's trip!

[@benh5774]

what is this rod and reel set up called, and why this vs spinning gear?

[@Broxty]

Ben H mooching rod. It's used heavily in Canada because it makes it more of a fight. We call the reels knuckle dusters because they smash your hands if not ready.

[@benh5774]

Broxty thanks, nothing like a good hand smashing to keep you on your toes

[@FishingwithRod]

It's a mooching setup. The reel is a single action reel, 1 to 1 retrieval. You can certainly use a spinning reel or level wind reel for this fishery, there's nothing wrong with that, but this is the preferred setup on the West Coast of BC because the fight is quite a bit more exciting. You have to be constantly engaged and watch where the fish are going.

[@gbiscuits]

Those fillets! yummy

[@FishingwithRod]

gorillabiscuits Yep! A couple of those high quality fish provide enough for the whole family to enjoy once a week all year.

[@Freedeeism]

Kitty makes me so happy :) I wish you were my fishing bud

[@AT-cn2gu]

what time of year?

[@FishingwithRod]

Early July. The season is typically best from mid June to the end of August.

[@909mineman]

Im going to langara Island lodge on the 29th. I hope by some miracle you are you are going the same week?? Pease tell me my dream has come true. A world class resort with my favourite fishing channel!

[@FishingwithRod]

We don't plan to be at Langara Island Lodge anytime soon unfortunately. :) Maybe one day.

Amazing video greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 Hamburg

[@me__and__luna]

Thanks for a heart, I love fishing 🎣 and I don’t catch a Salomon this is my favorite fish 🐠 and I hope 🤞 I catch in my life a Salomon. Sorry when I not riding perfect in English god bless your Simon from Germany 🇩🇪 Hamburg

[@WestCoastWheelman]

I'd love to see a quick tour of their little processing plant with the cool vacuum packer you teased at the end... I'm sure Murphy's wouldn't mind showing it off as a bit of advertising, they look like a hardcore modern full service outfit.

[@FishingwithRod]

Last year was the first year this fish processing and packaging was set up. When we return this year, we'll make an effort to document it a bit more thoroughly. The staff who work in there are really busy with so many fish coming through each day so we were trying not to get in their way. :)

[@andersjensen7132]

Hey, good idea. me too!

[@armytruck08]

I would recommend wearing an elastic band on your wrist . This helps with the pain of sea sickness

[@2-old-Forthischet]

Sugary sodas like 7-Up with no caffeine works well. None of that sugar substitute chet. I'm still eating fillets from our 2014 fishing trip in Alaska!

Hey Rod, remember this word... Phenergan!

[@Chase-yx7yu]

More salmon fishing please

[@FishingwithRod]

Keep checking back, there'll be more. We try to cycle between fisheries so you will always get a good variety of content to enjoy. Thanks for watching!

[@italiantroutaholic8926]

can you take something so that Rod can enjoy his Ocean trips better???

[@FishingwithRod]

I rarely feel ill actually. Even that particular evening it was very brief. By the time the last two fish were being caught, I was fine again (otherwise there wouldn't be anyone holding the camera).

[@steelyeyedguy]

I puke all the time 🤮 get it out and keep fishing!!

[@FishingwithRod]

That's the spirit!

[@bohdie71]

[@FishingwithRod]

Born Lucky Your local tackle stores, or Tinder. 😆

second

[@UrbanCheese709]

Nice video but...why anyone would want to fish with those ridiculous mooching reels is beyond me.

[@FishingwithRod]

Certainly you can use a levelwind for this fishery, but on the West Coast our preference are the single action mooching reels because it's a lot more challenging and exciting when fighting the fish. :)
