Recently retired warden here California penal code 25640 describes the exemption to the prohibition of concealed carry of a firearm for licensed hunters and anglers. So while fishing, concealed carry by a licensed angler is legal. I always recommend an angler print a copy of that exemption and keep it with them because I have found many deputies/police/CHP are not aware of that exemption. Additionally, while on federal land avoid carrying into any structure of any kind.

Matts, no need for one in the chamber most of the time. Pulling the slide takes a fraction of a second but leaving it out of the chamber makes the firearm much safer if you were to take a spill on your bike or slip and get banged up in the rapids. Just my two cents. I also carry while in the bush.

I use the Hard Cast Flat Nose rounds in Idaho while in the woods; Hollow points may work on a bear without a fat layer (such as right out of their den in the Spring) but otherwise the hollow point will splatter the fat layer and may not not penetrate into anything vital... and it really aggravates the bear! I really like the copper Lehigh projectile that is loaded by Underwood. You have the best cinematography of any KZbin sports channel... your layout and angles with your drone are the best. Thank you!

Agreed... I carry the G40 10mm longslide with the underwood ammo up here in Idaho as well. Even with the longer barrel of the G40 I wouldn't trust hollow points to get through and stop a charging bear. 10mm is already on the low end of bear defense....better to shoot over penetration than under when a bear is determined to put the hurt on ya.

I believe the gentleman you spoke to was incorrect. It’s a little more complicated than just “yes you can carry.” You also CAN carry it concealed while fishing. California Penal Code, Section 12025, prohibits carrying concealed firearms in California, but Section 12027 provides an exemption. (a) A person is not prohibited by this section from carrying a concealed firearm on or about his or her person while hunting or fishing. (b) This section does not apply to: (1) a person who is licensed to hunt or fish under the provisions of Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 11362) of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code; or (2) an employee of a law enforcement agency, as defined in subdivision (a), who carries a firearm while engaged in the performance of official duties while on duty or while off duty as an officer of such agency.

I used to carry a riffle or shotgun almost everywhere I hiked. That was 43 years ago. Even my buddy from school did the same thing and we would go fishing and hunting all the time together. So many rules now. Now the only rule I prescribe to now is "Don't break into my house". It won't go well. I lived in California then... I live in Florida now. .. I can legally wax somebody just for trespassing on my property. Of course that depends on a few things. Are they armed? Do they have criminal records? Did they try to steal things? Did they try to break into my house? Guy trying to break in my front door... I just shoot right through the door and call 911. Let the cops file the report.

Ok, love the videos Matt, and what a location! But as someone who has spent a great deal of time in the outdoors in true wilderness (bush Alaska). I am a little disturbed by how much emphasis urban dwellers place on firearms when venturing into the wild. Those things will only keep you safe if 1) you are trained and competent with the weapon and 2) you can keep your cool when encountering sudden danger. Almost everything in the wild including bears and mountain lions will want to avoid humans so take your gun but don't be nervous up there. Also, get someone to teach you motocross skills such as how to navigate your bike safely downhill in rough terrain. Believe it or not, the Front brake is the most important! Gloves and good footwear as well as a helmet will protect you in a crash. You can take that stuff off while you're fishing. That said, best of luck on your adventures.

Interesting. I made similar calls in 2022 and did OC (Open Carry) during my fishing trips while camping this year. You can CCW if you have a permit. Also, according to my research, you can OC even when hiking (even when not hunting or fishing or traveling to/from those activities). But remember, Nat'l Forests are not the same as Nat'l Parks - in which the latter are very restrictive in California in which case CCW is the only option. You can't even have pepper spray, bb guns, paintball guns, etc in Yo/SeKi (Yosemite/Sequioa & Kings Canyon) "Parks" in contrast with "Forests". Another interesting point and discussion that can be found (if you search) is the idea of 9mm for defense against a real bear attack (I say real because it would be too easy for someone to mistake a bluff charge (common with black bears) with anything else to shoot it unjustifiably. At the same time, I've never been in that situation to judge anyone too harshly). Anyway, while 9mm self-defense hollow point is commonly viewed as non-effective against a bear, a 9mm FMJ may be a different story...

Because I live in the Sierras outside of Yosemite and have spent half my life hunting and fishing here in the mountains, the only time I have a firearm is when I'm hunting. In the last 40 years I have only bumped one bear with her cubs and seen one lion. I hunted Quail 3 days a week so I was in the woods a lot. To pack or not to pack falls under the rule, it is better to have a thing and not need it than to need a thing and not have it. Cell service is spotty so emergency equipment is up to you, Not a bad idea at all. A GPS is also a good idea. I never had any of that gear but maybe today there is a GPS/locator combo?I always wanted a GPS. I have never gotten lost but I have been a mite confused a time or two. I have a great confused story from my duck hunting days!! The Ebike is very impressive!

Crikets don't bite. I hook the crickets under the neck and out the belly. Works pretty good 👍🏻

Bro that was the most beautiful place, you gotta go back and do some more fishing, I’m sure there are larger fish there!

Looks like our everyday roads here in Northern California. Good news is that road is paved

You make great videos. They’re my favorite fishing videos. You’re a very brave man driving on the road to your destination.

I have a Kershaw knife that was gifted to me and I absolutely love it. Sharpest blade and there is no play at all on it. I looked it up thinking it had t be $140, turned out to only be $45, 'i was so shocked.
