I would like to buy a bullet lure, whenever you have time to make them.

Yo Leif, if you see this and need help making some let me know- Justin from lwit

[@AROD.]

Man I’ve been asking for years and no luck 🤦‍♂️ 😊

[@mattdborys]

Don't worry about over-harvesting that asparagus, it's an incredibly hearty plant. That little one you took will grow back to that same size in about a day, they grows amazingly quick. Once it flowers it gets tall and stops growing, but you can harvest from the same stalk over and over again in one season.

[@Jingling-MelO]

I hate how expensive it is at the grocery store

[@junimogirl]

i just recently started watching your mountain survival videos and they are so beautiful and amazing!! i love how you care so much for wildlife and never want to disturb them or make them suffer. i have bad anxiety and your videos calm me down, your work is wonderful!! always remember you make so many people happy with your content :) can't wait to watch this one

try the alternate nostril yoga breathing exercise for calming . Learn to meditate , do some yoga ot tai chi . Chamomile is a good calming herb . So is Kava . Try a cool supplement called Bob barefoots coral calcium supreme . Be well and be good

You're an extremely positive guy. I've watched dozens of your videos and don't think I've ever seen you speak a negative word. It's honestly inspiring. I need to work on having this level of optimism lol.

[@NWFishingSecrets]

haha yeah we all have bad days but they're not worth dwelling over. Too many good memories to make out there ⛰ 🎣 :)

I usually enjoy the “catch & cook” part but honestly, this is one of the video I enjoyed so much for the fact that it’s so informative and educational at the same time! Thank you Lief for rolling out another inspirational and enjoyable video! Please keep them coming! ❤❤❤

Hands down the channel I look forward to the most on KZbin.. I love these mountain catch and cooks… great energy positive vibes and very entertaining. Thanks for all you do. The mountain farm is amazing.. very best 🍻

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Thank you for the kind comment! 🎣 mountains are the best

[@chasegipson3227]

I am absolutely addicted to your videos! you gave me the inspiration to go fishing again and have had some success! And I of course yell "bobber down" every time I get one down lol thank you for doing what you do!

[@NWFishingSecrets]

haha that's awesome! Hard to beat that bobber 🔥 Thanks for watching!!

[@amacroview]

For mountain lakes, you should always have some casting bobbers and flies. It is a clear teardrop shaped bobber that you put about a 3-4 foot leader with a small fly. Cast and retrieve real slow. Mountain can't resist a good bug. Try it when your bullet lure isn't working. Has always worked for me. Love your passion and excitement for the outdoors! Keep it up.

[@karyarahmae2214]

I just remembered that fishing/camping/etc wasn't the only thing that enticed me to watch your videos but also the mountain views. I really, really want to learn painting and I want to use some of your clips of the mountain as a reference someday. If you'll let me, of course. 😊

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Would love to see any art you create! Thank you for being subscribed! ⛰ 🎣

[@edsomers7814]

Definitely a return trip to forage fish and camp.and the story camp fire idea is a great idea too.great video Leif loved it man.keep being you brother.😊☮️

Thanks for enjoying man!! Will definitely be back up there camp stories included 👀 🔥 enjoy your night!

[@rclawfit32]

Yes, do a video tell all on your day and night outings of what you see and hear of the wild wilderness, looking forward to that vlog for sure.....

[@oliviaaxisaa]

I started watching your videos a few months ago. I've always been intrigued by the wild, and watching your videos just makes me even more eager to get out there. You have such great energy and great morals when out in the wild. Keep it up man we love you!

[@jtr6554]

Try this if you weren't already doing it and see if it helps with your Lifestraw experience. To prime a LifeStraw ready for use, you must first uncap the top and bottom of the LifeStraw. You will then need to insert the straw’s base into the contaminated water source and let it sit for 30 seconds. This will give the water time to channel up the internal membrane. After 30 seconds, take five quick and forceful sucks. This will allow the water to start flowing.

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Thanks for the info! I'll try soaking it with that technique next time 👌

[@gopro4it]

This was great as usual and I’d definitely watch the next attempt at this location with woods stories! Thanks for sharing your adventures, and spreading your positive energy!

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!! Will be back up there soon! 🔥 ⛰

[@hivolco151]

The terrain reminds me of where I spent time in Colorado in my teens... So much fun hiking around and YES there was that slight "fear" of rattlers under the rocks or brush. I mostly did day-hiking at that time so didn't get into foraging until I moved back out West to Oregon/Washington. That is really awesome that you also spent time in Germany, I made 4 trips over spread out over a 6 year period... Mostly around the Neckar River area... but also the hills near Baden-Baden exploring old ruins... Very fond memories! Thanks for the fresh and entertaining videos!

[@fightclubdurden]

Another excellent episode. I feel like this channel is getting better and better.

What’s so cool is you give a new definition to the word “ detail”. You share a greater amount of “ detail” than most people ever see. I love how you show the depth of everything in your immediate world. I appreciate your knowledge and understanding of the details you share. I must admit, I thought I saw a lot when I was in the forest, but you show your expertise and I thank you for that. It appears that the detail is there if we just take the time to enjoy. Nice video professionally done.

I would absolutely love to see some more of the fishing footage from under the surface of the water. Those videos are always so peaceful, it was amazing watching the bass and other fish swimming through. Unfortunately haven’t seen many morels around my area but definitely have lots of pheasant back mushrooms! Asparagus are also going absolutely insane in my area right now as well!

[@NWFishingSecrets]

Working on some more of those shots for us in the next few weeks! Need that water nice and clear 🎥 🎣 Never heard of a pheasant back mushroom! Cool!

I've been watching for a few years and am actively planning a trip to Washington/Oregon area as inspired by your channel. One of my favorite episodes was when you collabed with another channel on the beach and went mushroom hunting. So this episode was a lot of fun. Felt like I was there and loved the morel find, very exciting! Favorite episode so far, even though you didn't catch a fish. Was all very genuine.

Take care my friend, thanks for your videos I am learning a lot
