I'm 65. Psoriatic Arthritis has taken my hands. They've amputated my toes. I rode this chair for ten years and the VA had me on 27 pills a day. Then I saw your channel. I got the Medical Marijuana Card and on May 8th I flushed the pharmaceuticals. 4 days of HARD withdrawal followed by a week or two of lighter withdrawal but today I'm 80 pounds lighter (40 more to go), I've been walking since June, we've sold our house, we're moving Friday and next week, the Good Lord willing, I'm going fishing. I want a Kayak so I'll need fresh inspiration soon! HA! My wife wouldn't let me near one. Great Series! Great Channel! Can't wait for more! Thank you, Sir!

Stumbled across your channel a few weeks ago and I have watched every new video since. I appreciate that you don’t narrate while you fish. You let the scenery and fishing stand in its own, and then do a debrief at the end. I wish others followed this format. Looking forward to your next adventure. I live in Indiana and got to experience trout fishing in Colorado this summer, and now day dream of a multiple week self adventure like this.

I was falling down in the stream - a lot - that green stuff growing on the stones was sooooo slippery. I finally bought a pair of felt soled wading boots. What a difference!

Thanks for the absolutely fantastic, enriching, enlightening, entertaining, FN awesome everything Drew!!!! You are incredible bro learned a lot!! I’m glad you’re going home safe didn’t get eaten by a cougar or mauled by a bear and no broken bones and then get caught in the forest fire! I worried about you! Thanks for the pack review I’m like you I’m not a minimalist, I take things I might need Even on a day trip but I get stuck in some places in Pennsylvania where if I get stuck and got to spend the night I’m prepared!I looked at that pack and I was going to get it and then I changed my mind because I wasn’t crazy about that material ended up getting the Umpqua pack and I kind of wish the backpack was just a hair bigger for what you were doing that pack is perfect for what I’m doing the umpqua Pack is probably OK. I know you’re pretty frugal when it comes to supplies I think you should look at this fishing line fluorocarbon it’s called P line you can use it for Tippett and you can save a absolute ton of money instead of buying Orvis fluorocarbon!!! Check it out!!! Thanks again Drew you’re my hero I’ll be doing the truck camping and hopefully next summer! If you ever get to Pennsylvania text me man I’ll take you to some really good brookie fishing!!! And even to some spring creeks!

The mountain house granola is a good idea. I just did the same thing on a small creek I fish and it was a perfect cold meal on a hot day. I just switched to a Marsupial Gear chest pack and am now missing all my storage options I had with my Fish Pond backpack. I want to be able to use the chest pack alone on short trips I know what I am going to need. But I have been looking for a inexpensive backpack to go with it. The Orvis pack looks nice just more than I want to spend.

A lot of overlap with what’s in my bag. One first aid thing I’ve learned to take is super glue. I and others have had injuries that really needed stitches, but I’m not going to do that in the field. Tippet rings are a must for me as well. I never have to “rebuild” my leaders, just tie on new tippet.

Yeah Drew, love the vids. Superglue is basically dermabond which they use in ERs. I have used that tons on my kids and family members. Works great. Just clean approximate edges as close as you can and put it on there and hold until it sets. Sometimes you can incorporate a couple steri strips for a little added toughness. Works great in a lot of situations, best with clean straight cuts vs. jagged or when chunks of skin missing.

I'm recently retired and teaching myself how to fly fish...amusing to some that may be watching, but I have a great time just being there on the water...! I'm curious how you are able to fish so many states in a two month period without spending a fortune on out of state license's? Is there a federal license that might cover multiple states or some other way? Or is it just like when someone takes a one time trip to Alaska and spends the nickels for the opportunity? Appreciate any insight you might offer!!

It's a small expense for what I get back in return!

Never forget to keep bear spray at the ready whenever in a remote wilderness area. You never know when you'll need it. There's nothing more heart pounding than seeing a wild 300 pound black bear swim across a river toward your side, and then disappear crashing into the woods just 20 feet away. It was quit a sight to see that I'll never forget.

Dude slow down! I cant keep up! The only thing I need is, for your safety sake, is to include me on your SPOT contact list. You can DM me if you like.

When I need a slower pace, like with a thick Scottish or Scandinavian accent or similar, I'll go to the KZbin Settings (Gear icon)and tweak the playback speed down. If you need to read something, like on leader spool, energy bar, or road sign, you can set it super slow and read it, if the shot's sharp enough. Likewise, if you want to speed through the driving footage that others include (but can be boring), set that puppy to x2 and scoot through it.
