Join me and my good buddy Marc as we hit the water and paddle to a Crown Land campsite and spend the weekend fishing. This adventure has its share of mistakes and mishaps so you’ll want to grab a coffee and sit back, relax and enjoy! Doug

It's been a rainy summer at my camp this year but hardly any bugs. I've never cut so much grass in my life :) That's a hard video to produce , nicely done Doug 👍

[@PinetreeLine]

Lots of bugs here Steve with the combination of rain and humid weather. You do have a lot of grass there 😂. Thanks so much Buddy! 👍🏻👊🏻🍻

[@pacificbushcraftandfirecra6358]

The lake made the difficult portage worth it! Fun trip with great company in a beautiful area! Thanks for all your hard work to share it with us D! #keepitburning Brother

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks B! You’re right about the portage and ultimately you forgot about it because of how much fun you’re having with everything else. Appreciate you Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻🔥

[@HomeInTheSticks]

Catch and cook with beautiful scenery to boot, sweet video brother, stay safe up there!! Dan

[@PinetreeLine]

Hey Dan! It was an awesome trip! Appreciate you Brother! Be safe! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@BackpackingWithJason]

This looked like so much fun. Fishing and camping and being in the outdoors. Can’t beat that 👍🏻👍🏻. Great way to spend the summer.

[@PinetreeLine]

Absolutely Jason! Appreciate you Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@Anndyinthewoods]

Great video Doug! Looks like you and Marc had a great time. So frustrating that others have to try and ruin things by leaving garbage behind🤬. The fish looked delicious. Thanks for sharing!

[@PinetreeLine]

Thank you Andy! We did have lots of fun despite some hiccups and some ugly garbage out there. We ate well, as always 😂. Appreciate you watching Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@OpenAirAdventure]

The two of yas have a great channel doing amazing stuff. Including fishing for fingers.

[@PinetreeLine]

You catch whatever you can around here Kenny 😂. Thanks for watching Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻

Wow! Great vid. Great trip. The drone footage at 9:27, sunset at 22:16 and the Eagle fly by at 36:07.👍👍👍.

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks so much Matt! It was a good trip - lots of fun, learning and recovering from mistakes. I appreciate you Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@shinypackage8789]

Another terrific adventure, brother. You guys really have that down to a science. Good food, good company, and one of the most gorgeous places you could be.

[@PinetreeLine]

You said it all my friend! It was awesome! Appreciate you Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? Too bad about the rain but in spite of that, looked like a great trip!! Some nice fish too. You two always seem to eat well when in the woods!! LOL Thanks for taking us along brother and take 'er easy!!

[@PinetreeLine]

Mike I eat well all the time and being in the woods doesn’t stop me 😂. It was a great trip and we had fun catching lots of fish. Thanks for watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@preludefpv]

This was brilliant Doug! A varied adventure with some real moments! It was my Sunday nature flick 😃👍very enjoyable to watch brother, nobody does it better 👌

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks so much Leon 😊! I’m happy to provide you with some nature entertainment my Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@robbytheoutdoorsguy_channel]

[@PinetreeLine]

Fish with every meal is the best for sure Rob, as you well know. Thanks for watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@wadejohnson3871]

Doug you caught quite a few fish. Way to go. Loved the video. Noting like a good camping fishing trip for the soul. Hope you have a great day oh and by the way I love the cocker spaniel Riley. Had a black Cocker many years ago.

[@PinetreeLine]

Wade I’ve come a long way with the fishing and I’m still learning. You’re right, it is great to get out there and sooth the soul. Riley is awesome, such a great pup and he loves my tent 😂. Thanks for watching my Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@21Swayzee]

Doug, so nice to see you pull one in!!!! What a sweet spot to get out with some buddies and have an adventure! Yeah, backcountry slobs drive me nuts, it makes no sense, don't get why people can't carry there crap out. Hope you had a rocking weekend!

[@PinetreeLine]

Mattias I’m sure you see as much garbage out there as I do and it’s unfortunate many people don’t care enough to take their garbage out of the bush. Nevertheless, we had a nice little adventure and I caught some fish so all was good. Appreciate you watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@OthmarsVlog]

well done, thumbs up 👍🙏👏

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks so much! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@jacquiblanchard3131]

That was great, but for the garbage. Grr!

[@PinetreeLine]

I know. It’s an issue around these parts unfortunately Jacqui. Thanks so much for watching my friend! 👍🏻😊

[@wallaceviviansadventures2095]

What a awesome adventure Doug. Got to love the great outdoors. nice fishing and tasty looking meals. take care and have a great evening

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks so much Wallace! I always eat well in the outdoors lol. Appreciate you watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@mdmelbourne6076]

[@PinetreeLine]

[@OpenAirOutdoors]

Awesome vid brother🤘 Love how you put it together! That was a great camp out and looking foreward to Path👍 Thanks a bounch Doug🍻

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks for tripping with me Marc!! It was a great adventure. I’m looking forward to Path as well Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻🍻

[@HuplesCat]

The weather has been harsh this month. Too hot, too wet, and everything but snow! Lovely trip

[@PinetreeLine]

Yup I agree. The heat and humidity just sapping the energy right out of me. I much prefer cooler temperatures even if it’s wet out. Thanks for watching Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@HuplesCat]

@@PinetreeLine How are your bugs? We still have significant mozzies and deer flies

[@PinetreeLine]

@@HuplesCat Really bad this year. The conditions have been perfect for those little bastards lol

[@HuplesCat]

@@PinetreeLine Good. Not just me then! We are hiking and kayaking day trips from Petawawa in a couple of weeks for my 60th!

[@PinetreeLine]

@@HuplesCat Awesome way to spend your birthday 🎂 Brother!

Awesome eagle footage! Have a great week 🤝🏻

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks R L! Just an incredible bird and they are plentiful here in our backcountry. Appreciate you watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@JohnAmes]

I always wanted to do that. That looks like so much fun

[@PinetreeLine]

Lots of fun for sure John! You’d love it Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@GearReviewDepot]

Looked like a really good time. Now that I think of it, it’s probably been 40 years since I’ve been in a canoe or boat. 😅 Was going to rent a boat a few years ago to take my boys on the water and they both wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@PinetreeLine]

Well it’s a style of camping Tim and it’s not for everyone 😂. If your boys aren’t into it then maybe some car camping is in your future 😉. Thanks for watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@TimintheBackwoods]

As always Doug, looked like a great time !! You better be careful Brother or you're going to be a guest on Fishin' Canada with the skills you have built up😂😂 !! How was the paddle out ?? Cheers !! 👍👍🌲🌲🌲🇨🇦🍻

[@PinetreeLine]

Definitely a great time Tim! The good people who watch Fishin’ Canada have no worries of ever seeing me on their screens 😂 The paddle out was tough for about an hour then we had a cross wind and finally the wind was at our back. The rain let up some too. Appreciate you watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻🍻

[@marilynscull4585]

Awesome video Guys

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks Marilyn!! ☺️👍🏻

[@OrrinLepp]

Crown land garbage makes me 😠 Good trip brother. I just booked off my 2 weeks at the end of August. Between this and Lost Lakes yesterday vid I can't wait for my time off, I'm salivating for the bush.

[@PinetreeLine]

I can’t wait to see your trip Orrin! Crown Land garbage is as common as finding a Bud Light can in the middle of nowhere in the backcountry…it happens a lot 😤. Thanks for watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@YourOldPalFernbark]

"cause I'm a pretty wide guy" 😆😆 laughing with you, not at you. The world does not seem to appreciate us stouter fellas. Looks like you got the old school package MH with .25 ounces more of product. I'll be in the woods in less than 24 hrs unless something dramatic happens. Supposed to be 73F or about 23C. Better bring a coat, LOL

[@PinetreeLine]

The camping world would be better served looking after us bigger guys Dan. Ya I’ve had that MH for some years now. It seemed like a good time to finally eat it. Those are my kinda temperatures Brother 😂👍🏻👊🏻

[@rialobran]

Great adventure there Doug, you did right to take your gear. You might have faith that people think like you/us but by the look of the cr@p left behind there I'd have to disagree. Your last day is what our summer has been so far.

[@PinetreeLine]

Unfortunately you’re right Si, there are going to be those people who will disrespect Nature and those trying to enjoy it. Unfortunate about your Summer, it’s been beautiful here. Thanks so much for watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@OrrinLepp]

Is that a non teflon carbon pan Mark has? It looks thin and light. What's the make?

[@OpenAirOutdoors]

Hi Orrin, Doug sent me over! The pan is an antique carbon steel made by Cold Handle. I don't know of anybody making those types of pans anymore! They can be had at flea markets, EBay Etsie, those kinds of places. When you find one just buy it. Use it and care for it the same way you would cast iron. Hope this helps✌

[@OrrinLepp]

@OpenAirOutdoors woot! Thanks Marc and thanks Doug👍💪 I upgraded from cast to a carbon steel french pan about 4-5 years ago. I'm pleased to hear that's a CS pan. It looks lighter than what I'm using without going back to tefl🤢n. I will definitely keep my eyes peeled and definitely hit my local flea market soon.

[@OpenAirOutdoors]

@@OrrinLepp Some people also call them cowboy pans.

[@OrrinLepp]

24:34 I agree you should be able to leave your stuff at the site but if pple were like-minded, they wouldn't leave garbage everywhere. Good decision to take your gear IMO

[@PinetreeLine]

Thanks Brother! I’ve invested enough money into this hobby and I want to protect what I have.

[@QQQ-os9dj]

Looks like my comment was remover again. I would have feed the eagle the pike...

[@PinetreeLine]

The eagle did get the pike as it was dispatched prior to being put back in the water. We just didn’t get that part on film unfortunately. Thanks for watching Brother!! 👊🏻👍🏻

[@EverydayProjects]

Glad to see you're finally catching some fish. Another great adventure! I think I remember that portage (and the funny little man in the other canoe?) You've got some nice outdoor gear and the hard-shell cases are a very good idea. I don't think you showed us what's inside the red cooler. Beverages?? You guys didn't take Beer out there, did ya? Lots of fish in those lakes it seems. I remember many lakes down east (Nova Scotia) had invasive species that overtook the natural trout populations, but it seems that the pike and bass are plentiful in Northern Ontario. I think the best catch of the trip was that one you snagged who was wearing a red t-shirt and a brown hat! Nice trip guys!!

[@PinetreeLine]

Lol Craig the red cooler contained multiple refreshments for any occasion. No shortage of fish on this trip which ups my chances of catching a few even a guy in a brown hat 😂. Bass were once considered an invasive species here but thankfully things have balanced out and other fish have thrived naturally and due to stocking of native species in various lakes. Thanks for watching Brother!! 👍🏻👊🏻
