See ya on the next one . From my thawing/freezing igloo on the mountain in alberta Canada 🇨🇦 D.

[@tjsguideservice]

Right!? And I love pout and trout! Which we had some trout lakes closer! This video is actually from last year that I never got around too! Good luck this winter and stay safe in that igloo 😂

[@charleslatourelle8207]

Well I love to get some of them for eating they're delicious

[@tjsguideservice]

Poor man’s lobster!

[@aaronmeyer9431]

Fun video! Burbs are the best

[@tjsguideservice]

Hey thanks, Aaron! Love me some burbs!

[@janellepedersen8672]

Those are some good burbs

[@tjsguideservice]

Thanks, Nodin! Can’t wait for ice season!

[@nicholasmoen3244]

LOVE Pout season!

[@tjsguideservice]

Agreed! 🔥they are so much fun!

[@user-hi4vo1cn7r]

Nice burbs!

[@tjsguideservice]

Love me some burbs! Appreciate you taking the time to comment! 👊

[@jamesswanson4391]

That outro was a MN goodbye 🤣

[@tjsguideservice]

Isn’t that the truth! Catching a fish didn’t help 😂

[@cucinapazzo4223]

I’m from Washington state. We aren’t allowed to use live bait other than worms. Do you think they’d bite on dead frozen fish or plastics? I’ve never been burbot fishing but plan to go soon.

[@tjsguideservice]

Anything stinky they will eat! Frozen minnows etc… would work great! Best of luck!

[@ivarsodins9959]

In eastern Europe we use Frozen shrimps, earth worms and any piece of fish fillet like common roach works great.

[@hunt_trap_fish]

Do you offer guided trips for burbot?

[@tjsguideservice]

Unfortunately, I do not. There are other guides in the sea if you would like!

[@0nesandtwos]

What size trout n pout spoon?

[@tjsguideservice]

To be honest, I can’t quite remember. I typically like their larger sizes so it can give those blind things something to see! 😂

[@sengx]

Curious if you can help me. Does ur 822hd have brown marks on the edge of the screen? My first one had that and also seems like a leak into the camera (fogged up in lens inside at home). I exchanged it at scheels and the new one still has the brown marks on the edges. Kind of annoying. I emailed aqua vu and waiting for response

[@tjsguideservice]

No I have never had an issues with that! Does it show up on recorded video as well or is it something physical?

[@sengx]

@@tjsguideservice thanks, i guess it really is a defect. It shows up on video too. On the actual screen itself.

[@tjsguideservice]

@@sengx ah man, sorry to hear that! I have had really good experience with Aqua Vu customer service. They should get you taken care of!

[@isaaclee6268]

We need da mohawk back

[@tjsguideservice]

The Mohawk from the old days!? 😂

[@isaaclee6268]

Let's do it buddy 😅

[@Jiggy_Bones]

Can you eat these? What do they taste like?i grew up on the mississippi and have never seen these... where are they, what states/bodies of water..

[@tjsguideservice]

Absolutely! They call it “poor man’s lobster” can be very tasty! They are all over in Minnesota and Canada. Lots of lakes and some rivers!

[@Jiggy_Bones]

@@tjsguideservice I thought that was crawfish...

[@Jordy92243]

When was this filmed?

[@tjsguideservice]

Last week when it got cold! 😉 this was last March. Thought I lost some of the footage, but was able to recover it!

[@jasonmckenzie2384]

How deep were you fishing in this video in March?
