HIGH ALTITUDE Mountain Trout Fishing!!! SOLO BACKPACKING Pt. 2 (Catch & Cook)

High altitude mountain trout fishing is what I’m after in this one. Days 3 & 4 of my solo backpacking adventure take me high into the mountains for my most remote Trout Catch & Cook yet! I attempt to fix my air mattress & run low on food, which makes catching trout for food that much more important.
Part 1: • 5 DAY SOLO Backpacking...
Part 3: • SOLO Mountain Survival...

[@johnogden6668]

Your gorgeous cinematography really gives away your spots for us locals... but I appreciate that so much. Your "trip reports" are 1000x better than anything on WTA. Please never stop making Alpine Lake videos

[@Guythatfishes]

I LOVE THIS GUY, legit made me conserve clean and forage conservatively so much more. Also just learn to appreciate mother nature!!

[@kurtisyoung6739]

Your channel has inspired me into getting into backpacking next summer. I'm already an avid fisherman and camper, but you've inspired me to get up to some of the amazing high altitude lakes we have here in Utah, and do some catch n' cookin' of my own. I camped out of my kayak a few weeks back at Strawberry Reservoir, and it was easily the best camping/ fishing trip I've had all year. Thank you so much for your videos, they're always getting my psyched for every weekend I get to get out there and do it myself. Keep it up man, you're living the dream and inspiring others to do the same 💪🎣

[@guero7209]

These are my absolute favorite fishing and outdoor videos on KZbin. Phenomenal care and time put into them. I feel like he would love Utah with all the mountains and wildlife. Keep up the good work!

[@Kaiokenx4_]

I love the multiple episodes of the same trip. Like your telling a story, going higher and higher into the maintain to more and more isolated terrain and lakes. Incredible man, looks like you enjoyed yourself, glad to see your back safe.

[@greenapples8489]

That evening sky was pure fire! What a gorgeous view. Thanks for helping us enjoy the outdoors. If you ever offer an online class on how to get started alpine fishing I bet a lot of us would take it.

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Thank you man! I've been thinking of offering some in person alpine fishing/backpacking seminars!

[@AjayPatel-cf1gu]

you are just awesome. so much efforts it takes to show us your perspective the camera Angles you show. I wonder how many times you would be climbing up down , going forward and back to make that perfect shot. Hats off to you buddy. you represent the real solo survivor

[@IPGAuto]

42:33, that shot of the pan while that background is so amazing.

[@jasonborn867]

For me this is your best work yet. The scenery was magnificent and the trout incredible, my dude. Your meager choice of food rations really made the trip an adventure, especially relying on wild edibles and fish to survive. I'm totally down for another alpine semi-survival camp video. You da man! 😀

[@becomingcanadianrachelmari968]

[@spideymcgee4718]

Absolutely stunning location. I'm so jealous yet happy for you. If you enjoy instant coffee, spice it up a little with instant espresso! It adds great flavor, but be careful with the amount 😂 I look forward to seeing the higher lakes later in the episode.

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Thank you! And I'll give that a try 😬 ☕

[@ericcodebot4762]

So many incredibly scenic shots! Loved the time-lapse of the stars. You are such a trooper for filming portions of your steep climb where you had to have climbed it twice. First time on camera, and second off camera. I was so hoping for you to catch that fish in the dark, for the food! I will be watching for the next installment!

Hey man, couple things. You should skor the skin to prevent the trout from curling up, and also, could you give us random time checks throughout the video? Lol I’m always curious what time it is and how long it takes you to do certain things (edit: I just got to the point in the video where you skored the fish 😂)

Every one of your videos feels like I'm there myself. I probably can't even begin to imagine the effort of video production, but I wish you would shorten the intervals between videos, because every single video is like a short vacation for me. Also, the little explanations on the side, such as the meaning of the carins, are great. Thanks for your valuable work, I hope you can do your dream job forever and stay safe in the woods!
