Catch and Cook | NATIVE BROOK TROUT!!! | 100% Wild Foraged Lunch!

To sharpen our skills, Jeremy and I set off to claim a well balanced lunch from nature. One that contains sufficient vitamins, minerals and calories to sustain proper health and nutrition in a sustainable way.
This entire series is about catch n cook!
While many sources claim that "surviving" in nature is simple, that one can just collecting wild edibles and a few fish, it is in fact quite the opposite, and is in actual fact a true struggle against mother nature. Many survival type challenges are involve merely running caloric deficits days on end followed by a recovery period which resumes back in civilization through modern conveniences.
The real question is whether it is possible to live long term in the wild.

[@josepimann7384]

we can only eat the fish round here aboot once a month because the nitrogen levels in the water and some other run off shit. gotta go somewhere there are trout..

[@josepimann7384]

The Wooded Beardsman the Rideau river and ottawa are a bit nasty

[@elliotttalia1868]

I love how jeremy refers to the bees as pollinators

[@tompanetti75]

I use corn kernels, sometimes. Light line and tackle, small hook and small split shot. Cover(hide) all of the hook, with one kernel corn. Always know what your shadow is doing, (how fast it"s moving), and where it's at. Can of cheap corn, will last you guys all day. Find a bend in the creek, where it's deeper. Put your corn up stream a ways. Then let it drift through the bend. Heat rest of corn up...eat with your mess of brook trout. Lemon pepper for the spice. Love all your videos. Thanks a bunch

[@MchaelTeeter]

I love creeks like that. So much you can find. Trout and blue gill, bass etc. crawfish. Wild mint, water cress, cat tail. Berries just awesome.

[@nicoelgreeko]

That was funny when you asked Jeremy, "Are these utensils? Failed ideas?" I know that sentiment well!

[@202upthustla]

Never been the outdoors type but after watching a number of your vids (this is probably like my 100th by now) it made me appreciate the little things we take for granted. Anyways I’m not gonna make this post about me but rather about the hard work you put in day in and day out to provide grade A content. As a viewer the least I can do is drop a LIKE 👍. Hopefully this will start a trend and inspire more people to show their appreciation. With that cheers

[@AbuGadingDung]

Being an urban guy watching this video with a bottle of beer made me more relax, those berries, the scenery (except the electrical transmission line) and the sound of the streaming water it just made it perfect. I envy you guys.

[@melonyrichards937]

I don't know how I missed this one when I thought I saw every one of your videos. But very happy I came across it thank you so very much..

[@DamienDeadson]

I love that "knuckle thump dispatch." Brilliant.

[@HamsterLife_EnglishLearning]

I love the rushing water sound! Educational as well. Thanks!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Thanks Jude!

[@MichaelJohnson-kh3sg]

Way to go guys!!! Nice Chow!!! Made me hungry.lol☺

[@manoutdoors7085]

Full stop, fun day trip.

[@ReelinMaine]

You guys are quite the duo. Love going back and watching yous guyses adventureses.

[@JorgeHernandez-rp3hz]

Just started watching you're videos I'm learning a lot, every time I watch them I feel like going outside and hunt for something to eat hahaha good work bro.

[@WesS2016]

This is the best way to spend a day. Many days like this in my life, not in Canada, but hey, Texas is a great place to be. Bass, crappie, sun perch, catfish, turtles, craw-fish, cactus berries, yucca flowers, wild plums if you can beat the cardinals, even scored some wild grapes a few times, those are hard to get to though, always have to climb. Mesquite beans are super sweet also just kinda woody, lol

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

I'd trade almost anyone their environment for a week of mine! As outdoorsman, we make due with what we have and almost everywhere has good qualities if we take the time to look for them and enjoy them. Sounds like you have a lot of great stuff in your neck of the woods. If you haven't already, check out Bob Hansler, he's also in Texas...you would enjoy his content!

[@tonyxiong9236]

I've been watching a lot of these catch and fish videos and you guys are by far the best. Ya actually cook the whole trout with the head and skin on! That's how it's supposed to be done!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

And it's better that way!!!

[@snaponjohn100]

Another enjoyable video thanks guys God bless both of you. John

[@Jiffy-zq2yh]

Just found your videos, and I absolutely enjoy watching them! Thanks for sharing!

[@uppermichiganoutdoors9787]

Reminds me of the brookie fishing I do with my grandpa, some canoeing, or bushwhacking with only a can of worms, our rods and a creel. Up in the UP of Michigan.

[@tkpwns04]

Loved the video! Always fun fishing on the small streams. This got me in the perfect mood before leaving for a fly fishing overnighter at Lakes of the Clouds in Colorado.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Awesome! Good luck!

[@jacquiblanchard3131]

I've just started watching but that branch stringer trick of Jeremy's is very cool. Thanks!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Simple idea, smart guy...but even he didn't come up with it LOL. Tricks passed on down, and more of what we need. Bring back the old solutions to common problems.

[@jacquiblanchard3131]

I just LOL'd when Jeremy lost the fish in the fire. I've had many days like that. ;)

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Jacqui Blanchard I forgave him, it was only a creek chub! LOL

[@emmaskylet1019]

So genuine and interesting am new here and I can't keep myself away from watching all the videos over and over again

[@jons2cool1]

Trout with lemon pepper is amazing

[@johnnyringo7102]

Hellzzz yahhh! I love fishing for trouts then bbq them on the spot

[@Hockeyfan9884]

Great video guys , fun was had and I enjoyed the video for sure. Trying to catch up on all your videos and thanks for sharing guys.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Thanks Steve!

[@restoreallthings1806]

Thanks for sharing, great meal and not to laborious to harvest. I like having running water near where I cook and eat too. That was a nice spot on the rock bank.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

It's the reason we do it. How many people bring their stove and kitchen to the river edge...few!

[@downeastprimitiveskills7688]

There are no table manors out in the woods! I numb the fish by wacking its head on my rod next to the reel the stick them on a stick often will let them soak in the brook on hot days. Great outing.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Nice, that'll work. I've been finding whatever recently usually a tree around, and if nothing else, against my boot. Seems to work. Thanks for sharing.

[@tiagogogo3114]

I love this vid. Very educational 😊

I love how the seeds pop on the Spotted Touch me Nots.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Yeah, it's pretty neat how things evolve. They like to throw out their seeds for dispersal!

[@albabmalabon6934]

I love the fruits.

Awesome video !!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Thanks Chris!

[@vegasbattleborn1594]

Believe it or not, there are places in north eastern Nevada that look like this, less the variety of berries. We have elderberry & juniper which the latter is not really an eat off the tree berry. Lots of other edibles if you know what to look for. I've spent years enjoying high mountain lakes & creeks fly fishing so I really enjoyed this as my work life has me tied to the city. Thanks for sharing your beautiful part of this world.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

And we really are lucky to have such wild places still, places where it's possible to put some meals together.

[@tennysonshylla317]

I want to go with you guys...I like this stuff

[@nevetsreyd4688]

Holy moly. That's such a nice creek!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

It's a new stretch that we discovered from using google maps and locating hints of white water. We found that some other people fished another section but there was no evidence of anyone fishing here. There's also a nice waterfall section just below here. I've been fishing the slow section and now this! That's what you get when you're not out trying to track down someone else's honey hole! I need to make a video about this!

[@nevetsreyd4688]

Nice job finding that! And great to have Jeremy along for the trip! Do you have any plans for a "puddle lake" type adventure in the future?

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Trying to set up a wild foods weekend right now, some bird hunting, grouse, rabbit, duck, whatever we can find. We're also airing The Wilderness Living Challenge which will run 15 episodes. Jeremy is co-host!

[@nevetsreyd4688]

Awesome. Can't wait. PS I'm just watching a bit of Emelie Learning Bushcraft!! 👍

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

bahaha, just tongue in cheek comment at the end! LOL. Almost left that on the cutting room floor haha

[@justinde87]

From sudbury. You guys kick some serious ass.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Thanks Justin!

[@charetvillanueva5790]

That's an awesome place. full of edibles. watch out for bears guys...

[@jasonborres2249]

Nice!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Thanks Jason!

[@4xfish]

For me, the biggest difference between eating that Trout and the Chub is that Trout eats "things".. the Chub eats "anything". Ask Jeremy why he had to go 2 rounds with that little Trout. :0)

[@charetvillanueva5790]

Perfect day gents...

[@aleksivanov2418]

Good job gays 😎👌💪👍👏

[@mundodemj1512]

Gracias .!🙂soy nueva en su canal .

[@hauki9286]

watching this in the wilderness :-) Have done some lumberjacking today. fire is burning and cold night is coming

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Sounds idyllic!

[@brianspencer4220]

Well at least the mosquitoes are not eating you. It took only 5 fishes to feed the masses So you did a great job & a great haul of fruit. I'm proud of you. It did take a 40 minute video so your speed is not up to Tim H yet. Brian 76

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Haha, yeah we did this in mid-summer so not many bugs. Who's Tim H?

[@pepenramdan5562]

sae oge nya ari di leweng eta 👍

[@manoliblue]

bundle the worm up on the hook so you dont lose so many fish. Run the hook through the worm like a sock and leave like an 4th of an inch tail. Real good eatin'. lol

[@MIFish96]

I wish I could go out and do this stuff with you guys

[@robertgrant9265]

Amazing! I love your location so much. Loving it badly thanks for the video adventures, absolutely amazing.

[@dvlexotics2177]

Grew up with a stream like this in my back yard I'll tell ya what my family and I never went hungry. I could catch my limit of 10-12 inch Square tails (brookies) in 15-20 minutes.. I'd bet nobody has fished that stream in 20 odd years as kids these days are worried bout virtual fishing rather than contributing a meal to the family..

[@yunuswahidin1822]

good nice

[@tbhe_lonzy2698]

Great video I live in Sudbury ontario and I fish and hunt on the regular here is a pic of a speck I caught a couple years back

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Yeah, sorry, I can't see it!

[@tbhe_lonzy2698]

The Wooded Beardsman yeah it was 5.6 lbs I caught it in a creek

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

TBHE_ Lonzy Holy shit! LOL. You can send if via email if you want. Just go into "About" and you can click through to get my email.

[@leonardo1075ls]

This would make me love like a special Stone age vibe kinda video where you gotta use nature to make a rod and hook and find bait to catch a fish, no modern day amenities and create a fire to cook it

[@MIFish96]

You should get smaller rods for these small creeks with a bunch of overhang

[@martinadejaquiz2482]

VG thx!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

:)

[@ujangcadas8902]

Beutyfull place

[@NhanNguyen-vk6jo]

abc, nice skills. sickkk....use chop sticks to maneuver fish.

[@viewsandreviews180]

I hope all goes well if you do go on with this. It looks like you're going things the way you should. Great video by the way.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

It's on! Filmed, edited, uploaded. We spent the day going over details on this trip and seeing how much of a possibility it really was. October 15 is launch for the main series!

[@viewsandreviews180]

In that case may good fortune find you on the trail and I hope you have a "weight problem" brought on by too much to eat. I don't think anything else will be an issue for you. :-)

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Views and Reviews Thanks! Appreciate the well-wishes!

[@Christopher-pq6zl]

i like your videos

[@Caintuckee64]

For the longest time... thought you guys were brothers!

[@Caintuckee64]

*WE* are all brothers...from another mother... mother nature?

[@caintuckee7454]

Oh no, don't put the fish on the short side of the stick! put him on the longest section... otherwise they may flop off and posibly back into water. I used this trick many times when I had forgotten a basket or stringer. The stream fishing here in E. Ky is excellent; trout, smalmouth, largemouth, spotted and rock bass abound.

[@G_abriel_D]

I personally wouldn’t of kept some of the smaller fish but amazing video keep it up

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

That's about the full size they get in that creek.

[@shawnh162]

where is this ? canada? cause when i go down to the valley i see alot of the berries you guys got in this video but i been scared to eat them but ill give it a try

[@fishingandfossils8767]

I wish it was still summer, I want to do this kind of stuff

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Hahah, me too. But it's icefishing time!!!!

[@fishingandfossils8767]

true!

[@blackbear848]

Me too

[@linklesstennessee2078]

Good video

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Thanks!

[@canadianbushman8982]

This was a fun video to watch on a rainy day. Circle hooks rather than J style hooks have worked great for me.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

I just find the longer shank lets me thread a worm up higher. Heard good things about circle hooks on dead set lines. I've never tried them though.

[@EbonKim]

I use both, each have their uses. Nightcrawlers definitely slide down on circle hooks after the first cast, so if presentation is important, that's a downside. The upside is, it sets the hook a lot better, especially in the mouth, which is great for catch and release.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Ebon Kim Makes sense. I'll keep my circle hooks for those dead set long lines when I fish for rainbows and overnight lines. Those long shanks work really well to hold a worm how i want them in the creeks.

[@anabooty5474]

CanadianBushman aa

[@kilgoretrout3847]

that looks so annoying with those big med action rods. but ya use what you have got. Good fun.

[@joezuzolo9785]

I remember the first time I fished for stream trout I used a size 6 hook, in my experience it was way too big. Now I use a size 14, its easier for them to swallow and easier for you to hook them with. I would not use it for catch and release though.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Yeah, thought about using small, but I like the long shank too for the worm.

[@mrarfarf]

Great vid! One point, I don't think the purple flowers at 30:04 are chicory, unless it' some different kind, but if you google chicory flower, you see it's blue with no yellow center, and thicker petals..

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Hmmmm.

[@mrarfarf]

I think the flower at 30:04 is Aster flower, google image it and you'll see it looks the same, and chicory is all blue.. Hope that helps! :)

[@actionnowoutdooradventures7937]

Try setting the hook down stream. You will increase your hookups.

[@marcusway3764]

Never knew a simple thump could knock out a fish lol.

[@jamalmurca1541]

Awesome video!! You got me as a sub!

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Thanks Jamal!

[@carmelac.4705]

I love fishing,,but the worst one is within 5 hours 1 fish I got only...I will try again when I will be back home.thank you guys for great vedio.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Sounds about right! LOL I think we figured it out at about 1 fish per rod hour...some days you get 5 fish in 1 hour, and none in 5 hours :) Keep at it, luck always changes sooner or later.

[@carmelac.4705]

The Wooded Beardsman 😅😅😅lol hope so

[@CaptMorgasm]

Keen to try "Surviving" or at least trying too in the bush here in Australia. I'm only familiar with my local region but damn you guys got it all.. but we don't have to deal with bears so I guess there's that. Do you guys have much experience in completely different settings than say woodlands like this? Cheers.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

CaptMorgasm Nope. I'd be done in Australia! Well I would have to learn as I went anyway, same as you here. .the ears really are not a worry. We,rarely bump into them and they always dart away really quickly. No snakes or spiders to worry about, which is probably more of a concern, but like bears here, maybe you don't worry too much about them?

[@CaptMorgasm]

Australia gets a bad rep but as a partial bushman myself, working in the field the biggest concern is snakes/crocs (Thankfully no crocs where I'm from), maybe a funnel web spider/black widow if you're secluded enough. Due to lack of prey eyes some of the snakes here (Dugite,King Brown,Tiger) evolved some crazy toxic venom.. some species may have the same LD50 as say a cottonmouth for you boys but the difference is there is 2-3 times more venom per bite (again depending on the species) and thats what makes them particularly nasty. But yeah they're always a worry. Sharks aren't too bad. Scary as fuck but most species aren't interested. Gotta be careful when you spear fish, not to dwell in the water too long, get what you need and get out. But really when you think about people swim with sharks every day and have no idea, you don't going running with lions and.. maybe bears? ha i dont know.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

We really don't have to worry too much about anything in our woods as we have few with venom and bears aren't an issue, but still, getting used to the climate, the terrain, the animals, the foods, etc. It would be really hard. Local knowledge is for sure helpful.
