First Adirondack Canoe Camping Trip Of 2022. 10 Days Trout Fishing In The St Regis Canoe Area! Pt-1

This video covers days 1, 2 and 3 of 10 on my first Adirondack canoe camping trip of the year! Stephanie gets out for a quick overnight with me on day 1 and from there I am completely solo until I meet up with John and Logan from the ADK_Addicts later on in my trip. My first few days of fishing are a little tough with the wind, rain and snow constantly working against me, but I still managed to find some success. This weather would be nothing compared to what was in store for me later on...

Heading up to Saranac lower lake tomorrow for the week

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

I just got back from a 9 day trip Pike fishing on Lower and Middle Saranac. How did you do? I got in a few nice Pike but definitely not as many as in the Fall!

Cool trip so far!

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Thanks for watching! The fishing action picks up a bit in the next part!

[@puddlejumper-sk]

LOL....I hear you about the rod. I would love to use a better rod than a Ugly Stick on my trips but I would just end up snapping it. Cant beat the durability. Canoeing during Easter sounds like a dream! When is the ice off there? Cheers!

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Ice out happened around mid-April for these ponds, I was keeping an eye on it using online webcams and set out almost immediately after it happened. My Ugly Stick combos served me well for many years, I was just so impressed when John let me used his Halfling rod I knew I had to have one. Thanks for watching!

[@michaelrehberg5198]

Nice start to 2022, waiting patiently for the rest of the series. Good looking cold handle pan, looks brand new.

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

The pan has been great! I have already done a few different meals at this point with it and I am really impressed. Thanks for watching!

[@ADKAddicts]

That looked like an amazing night on HS. Great meal, a brook trout and loons calling. Nice.

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

That's money dude.

[@thehappysojourners]

Glad to see you getting back out doing what you love. hope to see many more safe trips

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

I already have a few trips banked and ready to edit with many more to come! Thank you for following along!

[@FishingWithDamon]

Your trout fishing adventures are always a blast to follow trout fishing season just started over here! Caught some wild brook trout right in the middle of the city in my last video/ adventure gotta love it only thing better would be if more kids my age would fish!!!!

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Oh wow that is awesome! I am definitely going to go check the video out! I jut got home from a 9 day Pike fishing trip myself!

[@glaziersgreatoutdoors9976]

I couldn't get up there that early this year. . . .heading up next weekend, solo, for 4 days. Weather looks HOT! Probably gonna be bugs. . . .oh well. Awesome vid!

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

The mosquitos were definitely active earlier this week in the southern Adirondacks. The blackflies were starting to swarm but not bite yet.

[@glaziersgreatoutdoors9976]

@@DaxWoodsWanderer Yeah, packing my head net for sure. . . . hopefully they won't be too bad on the water!

[@rudytomasik6516]

Thanks for sharing your trip, great editing. Hope you were able to catch those wily trout. Tight lines!!

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Thank you for watching! The action does pick up a bit in the next part and I managed to find a few nice Lakers! Should be out soon!

[@AbundantAdventures]

Hey man, just found your channel and I'm really enjoying your trips. I want to get into canoe trips at some point. My channels more devoted to backpacking but I would love to get started canoe camping at some point. Looks really fun.

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Canoe camping really is a total gamechanger. You can get places that most choose not to go, and the people you do see are usually like minded folk. There is a learning curve, but man is it worth it. Thanks for following along!

[@AbundantAdventures]

@@DaxWoodsWanderer It would be great if you did a little mini series for folks who want to get started in it. Maybe the basics for navigation, gear, and what you've learned the hard way so I don't have to :) haha

[@cef_outdoors]

No trout in Copperas but big pike and bass

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

I lost such a huge Pike on my way through Copperas on my first visit, it still haunts me. The weirdest part was, it was silver! I honestly thought it was a Musky at first, but there is no way. It must have just been a discolored fish.

[@ROSENTHAL41]

Caught a 19 1/2 inch brookie in Adirondacks in June this year .Old hook jawed male

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Oh man that had to be wicked fun! I bet it was a beauty.

[@gregschuler1596]

Just discovered your channel. Nice video. Will watch parts one and two. Love those cold handle pans. Totally non stick if properly seasoned. Is yours new? Great shape if an old one!

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Welcome aboard Greg, I appreciate you following along! That pan really has been a game changer. It is definitely not new, I believe the eBay listing said it was made in the 1940s!

[@BenOrvis]

Dude, I love seeing you out here doing the things that complete you. Never stop.

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Thanks for checking out my trip! There is nothing I love more than canoe camping in the Adirondacks. The fishing, the views, the lean-tos and campsites, its all just unbeatable.

[@isooutdoors4300]

Great video my friend!! What lb braid are you using? and is it a mono leader below the wabbler? Love your trips! Would love to see a video on how you dehydrate your curry, etc. Thanks! Billy

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

I am using 20lb braid with a 6lb mono leader for Trout, as I start transitioning into some Pike fishing here in the next few weeks I will probably have to switch that 6lb out with something a little bit heavier. I can totally try to do a short video about the meal dehydration, thanks for watching!

[@AdirondackAdventures]

Hey Dax. Love your vids man! I gotta pick up some of your fishing skills. Kinda lacking in that department. Can you tell me what your fishing rod setup is? Rods/Reels/line? What # test do you use primarily? Thanks in advance! Keep the videos coming!

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Hey man I can totally help you out! Send me an email at [e-mail] and I'll explain how I attack the different waters I fish.

[@andrewstrakos3568]

What kind of braided line do you use

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Hey sorry for the late reply! I use Spectra Power Braid 20lb on both my rods.

[@biged4476]

Cheers👍😎👍

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Appreciate it man!

[@banjohappy]

Lose the cigs. You'll be doing everyone a big favor.

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

I agree. It's damn tough though. I'm working on it.

[@dannywhitney7166]

Your trolling too fast for a lake clear wabbler

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

I will have to try to slow it down a bit more next time I am there. I have a spot in the southern Adirondacks that seems to produce fish for me quite consistently at the speed I usually troll, but I appreciate the advice and thanks for checking out my video!

[@robgrubb420]

wow what would it take to cut that hair LOL that's awful.

[@DaxWoodsWanderer]

Lol what a weird thing to comment...
