Catching Salmon, Smoking Seatrout and Christmas Baking

[@moldfinger]

Merry Christmas Fella, thanks for all the video's this year, long live the spirit of the salmon!

[@abakerslife]

Same to you! Long live the Salmon

[@Luggiefrank]

Popped the roast in the oven, and another great video to keep me occupied for a spell. Merry Christmas to you and the family Rob, and here's to another season of salmon fishing when it comes.

[@abakerslife]

Many thanks and seasons greetings to you too. All the best 🍻

Merry Christmas Rob. Another good video. I fish a small river in North Wales and catching trees is one of the hazards, and very frustrating! I'd tend to use my 10' single handed rod for a river that small.

[@abakerslife]

All the best John, I wouldn't mind a 10 7wt as it happens and have half an eye out for one.

Merry Christmas and happy new year rob I hope you do bigger and better things in 2025 My favourite youtuber by far!

Happy Christmas Rob. Best wishes to you and yours. Another enjoyable video to round the year off. Looking forward to seeing how you get on next season. I'm inspired to explore more of the Coquet next season and have a new toy to try out on the bigger water. Need to learn to cast the flippin' thing properly though! A couple of months of fly tying first. Hope to see you about on the bank in the New Year.

[@abakerslife]

Seasons greetings and all the best Brian. Bigger rod = equals bigger fish? If so I like you're thinking.

[@abakerslife]

Many thanks and same to you too

[@rongreen1538]

I used to fish that stretch and other high stretches in Weardale and always had the same problem, bloody leaves. Still, at least you’re out. Thank you for all your videos this year I’ve enjoyed them tremendously. P.S. looking through your old videos, what happened to the boat? Best wishes for the new year.

[@abakerslife]

Many thanks and seasons greetings to you too. The boat is still about I just have it stored on land for now. I'm planning on using it for a weeks holiday next year but since I became a born again salmon fisherman I haven't had much use for it.

[@peternufc81]

You Eat well, mate 👌

[@abakerslife]

Got to be able to look after yourself in this world mate.

[@joescuderi8350]

Merry Christmas Rob and Rosie headed to Dena’s for venison stew Italian style

[@abakerslife]

All the best Joe hope it was enjoyable, it was roast Turkey for us as usual.

[@pauldornquast5538]

The first fish you landed sure looked like a Brown Trout to me.

[@abakerslife]

It would have been a remarkable brownie but was a coloured up salmon

[@stevemad4salmon]

3.36k subs, we should add a zero somewhere, please be careful smoking food with chainsaw chips, they'll be full of oil from the blade... merry xmas Rob 👍

[@abakerslife]

Cheers and all the best. I never thought about the oil tbh but that does make sense. Time to start using olive oil in the chainsaw!

[@jamesrickerby2756]

I can not believe how long tge leaves have stayeg on yhe trees this year! Deciduous trees will sone become Ferrous trees and in spring just shed old leaves as new grows! Id be divorced if i went fishing, over xmas. Younlucky bugger!

[@abakerslife]

Well that was filmed at the end of October so the trees are looking decidedly less leafy now. I'm not married so luckily divorce is not on the cards so I can fish to my hearts content. All the best
