Rob! It was incredible meeting you. Thank you for having me for the night and cooking up my salmon! Hope to be able to meet again soon!

[@ennisdelmar807]

Do some gravlax next time with your salmon, one of the best way to eat salmon.

[@duncann5184]

What's that?

[@ennisdelmar807]

@@duncann5184 it's a swedish or scandinavian dish. grav meaning burried and lax meaning salmon. You can search it up but it's basically cured by being burried and press weighted. You have to try it because it's amazing.

[@duncann5184]

Snagging is FUN. Nice job Rob helping the one that dident know>

[@dgmills5351]

Your smoker needs to have a "Leaning Door" to help force the smoke thru the grate! That Salmon catch was fantastic. 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣

[@menghang6904]

One of my favorite videos so far because u went scavenging for treasure to build instead of choosing the easy way out let’s go spend a ton of money that I have… that’s the DMFD I’ve always loved watching for many many years. Keep up the amazing content!!!!

[@davewatson3398]

Everybody: too windy to fish Robert: great day to build a smoker from stuff nobody wants. Gotta love this dude 👍

Robert: Great day to build a smoker that nobody wants

[@maybee...]

Rob, You remind me of my Dad, when we (my brothers and sister's) were in still school, I think I was in the 8th grade, we deconstructed "2" 1930's cabins at Lake Tahoe and salvaged the lumber, windows, the wood used as decorative wall covering, the cabinets, and whatever items we might need. We hauled it away to our ranch and built a barn. Those were some of my best memories, it was a hot summer, but by fall we had one awesome barn and chicken coop. The windows were those old wood windows hand made by true craftsmen, the kind where the glass was held in place by putty. That barn was my favorite place, I spent everyday rain or shine out there. We filled it with hay/alfalfa, there were stalls for our horses, it was wonderful. I miss my Dad. Thanks for sharing your video's, and your family memories, they become part of our memories, God Bless you and Sarah and the girls.

[@meljay337]

I've never been a hunter or fisher type of guy out of just not wanting to have to kill an animal but watching your videos shows me how respectful and natural to do for our nutrition obviously. So I might start fishing this year for the first time lol. Love the content, the knowledge and positive family dynamic

[@ianokane9752]

Having that connection to your food is something amazing!

[@jcdesignsandboat-works8290]

There is no better feeling than catching and preparing your own food… Other than eating it that is! We all need to get back to the simple things in life. You won’t regret it!🤙🏻

[@j-rocd9507]

I learned to clean a fish when I was about 5. Haven't done it in way to long.

[@jaimecruz8855]

Get out there and have a blast , first time for everything!

[@dylanmcneish9240]

Not everyone that fishies kills and eats the fish it’s called catch and release?😂

[@GeneralTsoz]

*puts grate in truck bed* “that ain’t going no where” said every dad watching

[@fleuriejeanpierre]

Absolutely love your channel such a awesome alrounder family channel. Only problem is I get so hungry every time I watch.... thank you and God bless

[@samuelgarcia4883]

Making a smoker, catching your own salmon and smoking it! What a moment to live for. Hopefully one day I could expirience this with my wife. Send nothing but love and respect for what you do.

[@ronterrioussmith8006]

I want to visit Alaska one day

[@Justme-lq3wv]

That smoker is so simple yet so perfect and does the job amazingly, with the fact that it is built using Trash its something anyone can do and I love that fact❤

[@CraZivR]

I love how you’re always willing to help those around you. You seem like such a genuinely nice person and that’s why I continue to come back and watch your videos, despite the fact that I’ve never been hunting and only went fishing once. Keep it up!

[@WilliamHill-in6yz]

"A plan is only a dream if you don't execute" this is my next fb status! I'm on the up in life and up fingers crossed! You are my idle sir. My sons and I watch you everyday on your adventures! Thank you.

[@winterborne1]

I ain't going to lie, every time I watch your videos. I start longing to go back to Florida but to the time when I was a lil boy fishing off the banks of Lake Toho long before they built up the roads back when it was just a two lane road from Neptune Rd, all the way to Clyde street fishing for that big bass or using a cane pole to catch Bream. Then getting up at midnight with my uncle and his friends to go fishing for milkies and blues off of Old Tampa Highway at the Shingle Creek bridge using chicken gizzards and hearts and back when I was about 7-10 yrs old, fishing off the Lake Wade culvert pipe where I caught my first soft shelled turtle on a Zebco 404 using canned biscuit dough and worms. Wow!? Hard to believe 40 years have passed by.. I turn 50 on July 8th.. Thank you for your content..

[@cole11313]

whats up happy people!

[@jurassicsushi]

Sarah you are Glowing in todays video I must say. Rob that smoker is top notch from rags to riches MacGyver craftsmanship for real. When you were teaching the fella how to catch the fish and he hit one and missed and reacted with a "Bastard!" i literally Laughed out loud because all fishermen know that moment. Sarah is in straight Martha Stewart mode at the landfill / scrapyard, she see's things that to a normal eye would never see & I love that about her. Millers landing is going to be like "Just leave that smoker right there" when you guys head out because it will definitely be a work of art to tell the next visitors / campers. Overall I am truly enjoying every minute of this adventure that you and the family & crew are sharing with us. Thank you all for the hard work and dedication it takes to put up quality vids. God Bless / Continued Success and Be Well as always Arrington's & Team DMFD! You're all doing Great!🐟🙏🤝👊

[@jamessheets6604]

It was so nice you teach other what you have learned fishing. That guy was so excited to get a fish.

Hello Robert! My name is Maricelis from Chicago. My dad loves fishing although has never been ocean fishing. He loves your channel and loves watching what you do. He’s fascinated and always says “he would love to experience ocean fishing” my grandfather (his father) passed away last November and that was his fishing buddy. It’s never been the same ever since. Thank you for showing your experience and enjoying life. Thanks!

That has to be some of the deepest red coloured salmon I have ever seen! You guys in the US are truly blessed with the nature. That smoker was epic Rob. It's amazing what you can do with a bit of thought and ingenuity. Kudos my man. Love the uploads as always. I am gone! Take care!!

Another Great Video! Rob, your creativity, compassion, passion, generosity, resourcefulness & industry are inspiring! I can't possibly, adequately express how very much I admire you as a man, a father & husband, a sportsman & a Christian, but I am compelled to try. You have been a key inspiration in trying to restore my health, so I can get back to fishing & hunting. As I've shared before, since the beginning of January I have shed 71 Lbs. I have 121 lbs. to go to be at my "fighting weight" from when I was 25 (I'm almost 61). Thanks to you & your lovely family, for sharing your adventures with all of us. May God Bless You & Yours. TGBTG!

16:00 how about a shoutout to that awesome shot! So beautiful! Hand crafted custom made piece. You can tell some love went into that. Blood, sweat, and tears shed so the whole family and friends could sit back and enjoy! It brings everyone together and creates joy and smiles. Appealing to the eyes as well…the colors mesh together like artwork and you can tell it was made by a person with great care! I mean I could never EVER showcase a balloon hat as cool as that guy did! 😆

[@iamthenra1968]

[@richardhannon8872]

Fresh smoked salmon is the best Rob. Being Norwegian and from a fishing family you have to have a smoker. My family in Norway has fished for a living for generations. My family there has a smoker right in the backyard that I believe was built by my great great grandfather that they still use today. Every Christmas time they would ship us smoked fish to my mother for the holiday meals. For me and my brothers it was like getting candy lol. They would send huge sides of smoked salmon and other smoked fish and meats. My mother would have to hide it from me and my brothers lol. Great video Rob as always. A very simple smoker but hey it works. And that's all that matters. Keep them great videos coming brother. Enjoy your trip safe travels and stay safe. And oh yeah that midnight sun yeah it takes a bit to get use to lol. Stay safe and God bless brother.

[@dentonm8417]

[@melwilson4171]

[@granthartzheim9350]

This guide filleting the fish knows what he is doing a lot of people take out the bellies or slice straight down behind the head, growing up around salmon every one I catch you have to get the most meat off of it you can, you fillet up into the head and save the belly meat because it truly is the best part of the salmon it is the most buttery bight

[@anthonykingsley356]

I love watching your videos my here in Jacksonville and I’m disabled and I truly love your videos

[@benwoodfin9831]

I work at some of the largest WM landfills in the country and it amazes me the type of stuff people throw away. I’ve even repurposed and taken some stuff home as well. Video was amazing as always Rob but seeing you guys build the smoker from what other people consider trash was really cool and hit home, kudos to the whole Arrington gang!

[@joesguiltyguitar]

Hey Robert , could you do a short podcast video with Kendell Gray by video , it doesn't need to be a live feed video and editing would be needed because KG doesn't have good internet feed , but he could find good internet feed to record it .. this idea is only my opinion and KG didn't put me up to asking you about this and I don't know how busy you are right now nor do I know how busy Kendell is right ... I'm just hopeful for both you all and this idea was sooo random .

Fill in all the gaps in the wood with mud. It will stay more steady. It's good for grilling now, but I think there will be too much internal air flow to smoke stuff.

A MacGyver video today. Nice! 😁

[@louisevad6091]

That looks like a fun little stream. I hear tell Bristol bay has a record return of sockeye. Looks like salmon everywhere. You could almost walk across them. The reason you hook in the head may be the salmon are attracted to the bare hook. Spoon fishing I would think could be as effective as snagging and a little more sporting. I’ve caught salmon in rivers on coastal rivers in Wa state with nothing but a silver hook. What a great place your fishing at . Reminds me of the action in Western Wa I used to experience in the 60s and 70s in my youth. Only the snag was always illegal.

[@rayflorez1969]
