I noticed you said, "ever since I quit drugs and alcohol"-firstly, well done ! Secondly, I am watching this just finishing off my taper on subutex (an opiate substitute like methadone) and it is really helping me pull through. I am three years without booze now and the opiates are the final thing to stop. I love the outdoors so much and cannot wait to get back out there. All the best from the UK.

I love watching your videos (ASMR) and highly instructional. I have a Fishing tip for you all (especially Xander). When you're ready to fish with either live bait or with lures, it's always smart to wash your hands with Lake water, then; you need to rub your hands in any grass, dirt, mud, or seaweed you can find (just like you did with the dirt at the 21:10 mark in this video. When you're handling a lot of different things, it's important to realize that fish are all about Sight, Sound, and Scent. It is your scent on the lures that can easily dissuade the fish from being attracted. Great Video !!!

You have slowly became my favorite survivalist to watch. Don't worry about people complaining about small game hunting it's perfectly natural. you do you. Look forward to more videos. As a suggestion you should always carry a handline setup in your pack. If your pole breaks you always have a backup. It weighs basically nothing and doesn't take up any space bro.

I'm really glad to see you advancing into hunting content. It's definitely a crucial skill in the quest to become a well-rounded outdoors man. The appeal of traditional bow hunting over other forms of hunting to me is the fact that you need to become one with the land in order to find success. You're not just sitting in a tree shooting at animals 50-100 yards away, or blasting away into the air with a shotgun until you hit something. No disrespect to those forms of hunting, which still require great skill in their own right, but the ceiling for personal growth is so much higher with traditional forms of hunting.

This is one of your best, in my opinion. 50 hrs. is a long time to survive alone in the woods. But an amazingly short time to experience life's best lessons: Gratitude, Persistence, Ingenuity, Creativity, Acceptance, Awareness and more. So much to experience. I would be curious to know how many casts it took to land that one fish. If that doesn't illustrate persistence paying off, I don't know what would. Amazing adventure. Thanks for sharing!

That fuzzy little mushroom is a Hedgehog and they're actually quite yummy. I think the 1st ones you found were false chanterelles - you can tell that by them growing in singles or very small groupings and also when the ridges don't go down the majority of the stem. Glad you didn't eat them because you might have gotten sick! I appreciate your innovation and perseverance because that was a beautiful fish! Thanks for the content, Xander. It never disappoints!

Yeah definitely winter chanterelle - it's the mushroom I pick the most myself. And they're honestly hard to mistake for something else except other edible mushrooms. I've read about people mistaking it for deadly webcap (!) but I'm note sure how. Carelessness I guess. Also the false chanterelle is reminiscent of the regular chanterelle, but not winter chanterelle which has a distinctively different look.

You know wearing bright orange is fine when you're hunting because I've heard that deer can't see the orange. Fish can though. Fish see bright orange. They hear you move and drop stuff on the rocks. You actually have to sneak up on fish unless you're in a noisy river with limited visibility range. Fish in a quiet clear lake are the hardest to catch. If you can't move in quietly, stoop down in the brush or amongst the rocks and wait five minutes before casting because fish have the attention span of a cat. They'll forget they saw you come up. Also, lures aren't always effective.

Just some helpful tips for people watching. In a survival situation you want to conserve as many calories as possible. Wearing a backpack while fishing is useless calorie expenditure and increases your chances of getting injured which can easily be fatal when you’re alone. Another thing to be careful of is when you’re sleeping in caves or under rocks and you want a fire, you NEED to slowly heat the rock before you create a large fire. If you make your fire too fast the rocks can crack and kill you in your sleep! Finally. If you managed to get some of your socks wet (or any smaller clothing items) if you put the wet socks in your sleeping bag your body heat will dry them out overnight. A water bottle with warm water will also help keep you warm in a sleeping bag when it gets super cold!

I discovered your channel, via Jon and his Lost Lakes channel. I watched your canoe trip with him. I must say, watching your channel and his give me peace. Watching the winter trips give me a feeling of relaxation. I can't describe it. I'm a new subscriber to you and I must say, "I'm thankful to be one." I'm so thankful I discovered your channel, too. Thanks Xander.

I'm sure this has been said before, but...I just want to say how much it means to see guys like you showing mistakes in videos and helping other people learn. I'll make sure to check my poles on the way out next time :) Thanks for the videos.

Love this video Xander, the positive attitude and your overall vibe is so great to watch. I think I yelled out along with you when you landed that fish! 😂

Really enjoying your videos. I just came across your channel recently after being a big Joe Robinet fan for years. I appreciate the authenticity and the fact you're really out there doing it for all of us to see, successes and failures alike. Some channels out there stage stuff and half their advice would get someone killed in a real survival situation.

As a fisherman myself, it was great to see you land that brookie. That one you lost ice fishing with your brother when you tried to wash it in the hole... oh my! Anyhoo, another excellent video. Nicely done. Your efforts are appreciated.

I was 2 and a half years sober but I slipped December 21st 2023… so now I’m only 4 and a half months… but I will get there again. I am strong and I’m worth it! And god loves me :) Ps. I too am from Canada. BC bound! Haha Edit: I’m writing this as you caught your first fish and landed it!

Xander, the fish you caught was a very nice sized Brook Trout in Fall spawning dress. The only other fish with ruby red spots with blue rings is the related Dolly Varden Char, but I don't believe they are stocked in Ontario. That was a fine fish with beautiful markings. A trophy Brookie is any fish longer than 23 inches. Congrats!

Xander keep up the great work. I’m a new subscriber and really enjoy your uploads. I used to be a follower of Joe Robinet, for years, but he has lost his way on bushcraft, basic survival etc content. Now I see him camping in trailers, using quads etc. Not what I’m after. Your content is exactly what I’m looking for. Thank you.

That is a huge brook trout! Honestly probably one of the biggest I’ve seen caught, a trophy for sure!

It must be so satisfying to sit in front of the fire after finally catching and eating that fish! I’m not usually the camping type but I’d be lying if I said your videos didn’t tempt and inspire me
