You make grandpa and all of us so proud son ❤, it's the perfect dedication for a enthusiastic fisherman like grandpa.

I would love to see this channel become the NWFishingSecrets of Maine

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Maybe one day!

[@ericwiitala5407]

Jessie... Those were some absolutely beautiful salmon. Usually when in Maine I'm fishing smallies, trout, but I've never specifically tried salmon fishing. Thinking this needs to change. Great video

[@thatsaprettygoodfish6342]

Nice to find another Mainer out there bringing fishing content to KZbin. I am impressed with your number of subscribers..... I have been working my tail off for about sixteen months with minimal subscribers but I still love fishing and filming. Looking forward to settling in and binge watching these videos.

[@scopy5590]

Please tell me what river I’m new to fly fishing in maine

[@sulemanpatel2709]

Waiting for the grouse hunting videos

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Next two are grouse and probably more after that if I can find the time

[@stanwilliams4091]

Was just there 6 days ago and landed a 22” male. On ironically, my variation of cone head wolly bugger that I’ve been tying up for 24 years. Caught a big Atlantic on it 23 years ago and been fishing it for salmon since. That place has some healthy salmon for sure!

[@bigpardner]

Whre is it, what river? Not that I'll be going there in this lifetime.

[@mynameseff2992]

Where is this stream?

[@markguiou538]

Beautiful fish, fall can be a great time to fly fish. So sorry to hear of the passing of your grandfather.

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Thanks I appreciate it, he’s the major reason i started making these videos so editing as been hard lately

[@714spoon]

Another epic video! Beautiful cinematography and awesome fishing. Going up to pulaski again this week

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Thanks and good luck out there!

[@andrewkulis4279]

Hello Jess, sorry about the loss your family had, great video as normal

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Thanks I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the video

[@chazdoherty635]

My brother in law reached out to get some flies for my birthday. I just received them And look for to giving them a try. Thanks.

[@robgrubb420]

this was awesome man. its hard not to appreciate salmon and those were some beauties.

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Absolute! Thanks for watching!

[@timmyjacobs7620]

Hey I know this video is older but I live I'm Dover foxcroft an would love to meet up an do some fishing. Always looking for good people to fish with

[@johnpark2847]

Which river or lake is this ?

[@williamnichols7614]

Perch stream

[@sabrifilms198]

When is the grouse video coming out?

[@MainelyOutDoors]

The next two and probably a few more after

[@kennyb214]

I also keep and eat a fish here and there. I will also never release a dead or dying fish. On backcountry trips I actually rely on keeping a few. It helps keep weight down in the pack and and their are an over abunadance of fish

[@wildbrookies]

Very sorry for the loss of your grandfather. I’m sure he some influence in getting you out on rivers,ponds,lakes and the woods. Simply put, you definitely wowed me with the size of those landlocks! They are so pretty. Always enjoy your videos! Please keep them coming our way! The next best thing to being there , as I always say. Tightlines bud!

[@bradmcbean6197]

I thought stream fishing ended in October 1st

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Not everywhere some stay open year around and others are open through October. They get very busy though because of that!

[@wildbrookies]

Hey , I not sure if I ever gave my respects.. so, Jesse ,Im sorry for your loss of your grandfather. Continue on ,as I know he would want you to do. Do what your doing . I think its great!

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Thanks Jim I appreciate it! Definitely left me in a rut for a bit but i'm back to doing what I love!

[@bobbygreen2291]

Good to hear from you Jesse , can’t wait to watch those grouse hunting trips

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Coming up next!

[@eclipsee4115]

Are you still going to make grouse hunting videos?

[@MainelyOutDoors]

of course But I go in chronological order and editing videos like theses take a long time.

[@FlyTyer1948]

Gorgeous fish. When catching fish that size, it might be better to just not use an undersized net to prevent accidental injury to the fish. The net might make it easier to show the fish in a video, but it might also show better with a hand release. Also, you might want to experiment with circle hooks. They would be great for the Golden or Olive Retriever in that situation to reduce the chance of the fish taking the hook deep in the throat. With circles, you almost always hook them in the corner of the mouth. I have some extra hooks. Send me an email or call if you want me to send some. They also would be great for your saltwater ledge fishing. Bob

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Good point, I use them on some of my hooks but not all of them because the options aren’t always there. The major problem with this fish was it engulfed it from the tail instead of hitting the head. pretty unusual for a larger fish. But I think it had to do with the position of the fly. I was getting ready to reset a roll cast and didn’t notice she was after it. As the fly picked up speed towards shore I think she just went for it as it as the size six fly was definitely not unmanageable for the size of her. Hopefully she's alright... definitely took away some of the thrill of this catch

[@precisionanglingYT]

Quality Salmon!! Well done!!

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Thanks! Definitely one for the books

[@mattholden5521]

Going to have to try that River some day. Great content as always!

[@MainelyOutDoors]

You should! Well have to get you up here next year somehow

[@donutdude7561]

Dope vid when the fish are too big for the bet you now it’s a good day loven it

[@MainelyOutDoors]

You got that right

[@FreedomFishing]

Wow, I can't wait until I can find all the spots like this. Beautiful area. Sorry to hear about your Grandfather. Happy fishing!

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Just takes time! I've spent a total of ~40 days on the river this year alone 😂 so i know it pretty well.

[@FreedomFishing]

@@MainelyOutDoors Sounds like a blast. I'm back to fishing after like 15 years of not. Man have I missed out. What river is this?

[@Manzo207]

Hey, I know this is a fishing video, but northern Maine partridge season is going well. I was curious where you aim at a bird if it’s at the head neck or somewhere else. I talked to my father about this, he lives in Alaska and hunts grouse up there. And he says he places the bead of the shotgun right below the breast of the bird. So it’s almost like he’s aiming just underneath it since shotguns shoot high. He claims he hardly peppers the breast, so I wanted to get other’s opinions on this as well. Appreciate the content.

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Interesting, I cant say I've ever shot one like that on purpose. Not that it wont work. What I do depends on the range of the bird. I'll shoot the head up close. the neck when its a bit farther, and the body on a reach shot. I shoot with a 20 and couldn’t say what range I change my target. I know my shotgun pretty well and just know what to target.

[@Manzo207]

@@MainelyOutDoors I appreciate that, he’s been hunting birds like that for a while and has a good shot. I hunt with a 20 gauge as well. I’ve never heard of it either and have always aimed at the neck, so I will give it a try this weekend and let you know how it works out.

[@adventuretimefishinghunting]

Beutiful fish! And great video

[@MainelyOutDoors]

Thank you very much! That was definitely a trip to remember!
