Great video to watch on a cold damp winter day. I’ve been fishing the Joe for 25 years and recognized all the holes and areas you guys fished. The Joe has always been my favorite river. It gets pretty crowded at times, but I always manage to catch fish. Can’t wait to get back up there!

Great to spend some time with you on this adventure with your lifetime friend. This video took me back to my experience I had up there on the upper Joe and I kept thinking about how much I wanted to bring my life long fishing buddy up to enjoy a couple days there with me! Happy New Year and thank you for sharing this beautiful part of Idaho.

Just found you and subscribed. Not asking for spots, just curious. Is there a trail above Spruce Tree Campground that you walked in on? I didn’t make it up that far last summer but hope to this coming summer.
@selfmedicatedrec7361 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comment and sub! The trailhead at Spruce Tree diverts away from the river and runs along a ridge. I can't remember exactly how far in... maybe like a mile.

I go bear hunting out there, and I can walk to the st joe, but it’s early may, and the water is running pretty dang fast, I’ve been able to catch a couple trout in the two trips I’ve been there, you have any advice for this years trip.

Oye! I don't have much advice for that time of the year. I can imagine it is probably quite high. Sorry.

if u arnt hooking up, just means the trout are being cautious when eating, or being lazy. id throw on a smaller fly. edit: oh theres no hook LOL what in the world! haha

You guys need to pay more attention to the handling of the fish. I suspect a lot of those fish died after you released them from your Kung Fu grips!

@@janinewarmouth7652 trout experience permanent gill damage in cold weather almost the moment they come in contact with cold air. In warmer weather, the oxygen they store in their muscle tissue as a reserve backup is depleted fighting the angler and they are under oxygenated when they reach the net. This is a particularly acute problem when water temps are above 70 degrees because dissolved oxygen in the water is lower vs colder water temps, other things being equal. Lifting the trout out of the water would be similar to taking a track and field athlete and dunking their head underwater the moment they complete a 200 yard competitive sprint. But even if the trout survives the initial pull from the water for 15-20 seconds or more, there is a high probability that lactic acid will build up to the point it will kill the fish within 2-3 hours. I am no expert but I have read what I could find from the aquatic biologists who graciously share their conclusions from field testing and observation. I am sharing this hoping it will benefit folks who want to protect the trout and other species that they hook. Sailfish will basically fight to a point of near death for example. The more we understand, the more the fishery will thrive. I hope that helps explain my comments and encourages anglers to read or search for information from experts which is readily accessible via KZbin and websites.
