catch

today uh probably a little bit of everything

catch

some

trout

rainbow maybe some salmon that's the target species starting the day watching about a hundred turkeys we're here on the Snake River today we're going to try a little different water a little different landscape plus it's A little warmer here we have water at 60 degrees instead of 45, so that will make the air temperature this morning a little more comfortable.

This is what dreams are made of, like just looking down, looking around us in 360. This place is amazing. Kel Bell's got it, yeah, good rod job too, Kelly, thanks, the colors are so vibrant on this rainbow

trout

, look at those pink cheeks now, like the one I caught yesterday, that little fin up there, it's

wild

, like that that we are. I'm going to have to free him. Go ahead and shoot the water. I need to skimp. I ran out of scripts, so the captain started the morning with a competition and said: Long Rodders versus Short Rodders.

I have to say the Short Rodders are whipping. them this morning this fish is spinning, spinning and rolling, shaking its head like an alligator does, it absolutely moves, you can't look in any direction and not see something beautiful, I don't care if you look down or up. I'm like I don't give a damn about a fish and then, oh, there was the bite, that thing aired it out. I don't know if you guys can say this, but this is amazing like Kev. Now I need to tell you. You see? Did you see that cat? I saw it.

You never take your bird dogs to the best place. First you have to wait until they calm down. You know, get into the rhythm and then you go to the good places. I have already caught four rainbow trout, which they call rainbow trout, the fish of a thousand hauls. Well, I say go fishing with Captain Dagum Jason and just catch them. I mean, if you want to catch them, go where they are. This is where they are. It's a tree breaking aid, yes, very good, the problem is that right now we have huge rapids behind us, we have to catch it before it reaches the rapids, otherwise this could be a life-threatening situation, a fish huge rolling like a swordfish, let's try to get here in the whirlpool before we get to the before we get there it's amazing how strong this fish is down here trying to get into the rocks oh and it looks like a hatchery I didn't see a fin on the up my heart is pounding right now look at that big chicken coop it's nice look at that unhook it real quick big king what an amazing fish look we can't keep this king salmon so

wild

nice fish winner winner good We're not going to have salmon for dinner, but We just caught one for you, if any of you are watching this show and you're saying to yourself, I want to go there, this is who you want to go with, this Captain Jason, what's his company?

Hells Canyon sport fishing, he has five boats, yes we have five captains during the season and we pretty much have availability. If you want to come fishing, look for us, we will take you to the river. All your links will be. in the description below and I give them a thumbs up, two thumbs up, it's a darling meat for dinner, thumbs up, this guy is amazing, not only does he know the land of fish wildlife very well, but he is also a very nice and funny guy. You will enjoy your day. This is epic. Are you kidding?

So what has it been like coming on this trip? This is incredible. I can't even explain it. My arm is burning and I'm not giving up on this guy. I wanted to see a surgeon on this trip, my main goal was to see a huge sturgeon and I just saw one, okay so we have to be careful, there are rocks here, we have to make sure this fish makes it down the stream, keep it up firm. there you go cap is an amazing boatman here really understands the river and what's going on perfect use this hi vis line so you can see it oh it just broke right there needless to say the fish was there that's it a rainbow trout rod and he just caught a big ol' sturgeon, I call it an incredible victory, that's his fifth species, fifth species, wow, what a monster fish, just to see that power coming out of the water, okay guys, check this out.

I just got back to camp here. this is what i'm

clean

ing that's what we're going to

cook

today with venison for dinner beautiful rainbow trout that's a fool gabe is going to

cook

on his channel blue gabe so if you want to see how silly something is with big and old flabby lips that tastes like look at Blue Gabe there will be links in the description below but as far as I'm concerned let's

clean

this sucker the first thing you need to do is clean them look at the balls that's the row we're going to save as bait.

We can use this as sturgeon bait and then right at the bottom of this fish, let me show you something. Take your knife. I'll try to take your knife and cut there. Then use your finger and get all that blood out. I want to get rid of that, bring them here, it's amazing, catch this fish right here in the river, clean it up and we're about to cook it over a wood

fire

at Jason's camp. If you watch yesterday's video, we cooked that fish at home. with sarah and the girls because this was supposed to be sarah's trip, but now that we're here, gabe caught this fish and we're going to cook it up there, okay, i want to make sure there's no sand left anywhere.

I want sand on this fish, move it over there and they're very slippery, so I'm going to take a towel like that and put it here now to keep this fish from sliding. Now he is well and safe. Make a cut right there. The knife is very sharp, it is a silver deer. We're actually here with Brad Smith, who owns Silverstag and makes this knife. If you want one of these before Christmas, I promise you click the link below. It is the best fillet knife I have ever tried. used and it will be used up very quickly look how this is done it's going to make a perfect cut all the way to the spine like a hot knife through butter all the way down now look at this look at that color look how beautiful we are We'll bone it in a second but First let's clean the other side.

These are the little ribs I cut out. All you have to do is take this knife and gently cut right under them. We're going to get to a little pin bone there that you have to get into and then just gently fillet them, these knives are so sharp that if you're not careful you just cut them off now that ladies and gentlemen that's a perfect rainbow trout fillet here on the banks of the Snake River in Idaho, proud to be an American, you all are proud to be Americans, so this is what we're going to do, normally you would lather it up with a little butter. but today we are going to use mayonnaise.

The mayonnaise will add a little flavor and will also add a good amount of oil to our fish. Every time you go to the bush, you will always have some type. of mayonnaise with you and try it, you can use it on your fish, you can use it on your meat, like venison, wild pork, alligator, frog legs, anything like that, look, that's good, that's good, eh, so this is don juan's special call at the hostel we're staying at this is his special seasoning on his legendary i don't even know what's in it, but we're going to season our fish real good, like he's really happy right now, look how good it looks, TRUE? 'All the mayonnaise will act as two things: one, it will lubricate this fish and we'll start with the skin side down, like this, let me take this second piece, it's like this grill was made for wild,

open

rainbow trout. camp

fire

the smell is amazing like just that hardwood has a boat coming yeah look at this boat right here it's very important when you do this make sure you like this my spatula is like a left handed make sure you move it like this.

Don't let it stick now we're going to let it cook if you don't like rainbow trout he has a beautiful burger this guy does it well we have some amazing handmade burgers we're going to have a decent lunch one way or the other yeah Spike's camp is already done. Come on, oh my god, are you kidding me? Hey, if you don't like it, you're a communist, this is us cooking up there, this is Gabe catching one right here, Anderson, beautiful clear water, the weird thing. This is the fish showing me whose boss just swam in this balloon, he said let's get out of this code, hey Jason, check that fish and make sure it's not burning, please, right?

Would you agree, Robert? I could not agree more. Man, congratulations bro, oh beautiful, I'm not even going to cut the camera, look at this, this is not a joke, this is real, wait, wait, that's what's going on here, Gabe was there, what do you think, Jason Oh man? We've got it going, we're getting fish out of the river, we've got fish on the grill, it looks good, but I probably feel like getting it out, this is what we're going to do, we're going to try to get this out right away. skin oh yeah, that's perfect, just get in there and then use your spatula, get it out right away. perfect portion oh yes this is perfect Blake First Steelhead one of the best fish I have ever had easily really good this is the definition of fresh. much like the old school days when we started eating venison for dinner, we didn't have a cameraman, we just took turns holding the camera just as I remembered it, just buttery, creamy, rich, lovely food fresh from the river , the river of snakes last time.

Gabe and I were in that river in 1988, we crashed and almost died with my dad and Ray Spear. Here we are, 32 years later, having one of the best times of our lives, literally, there was a whole herd of bighorn sheep right there. We are eating, having fun and most importantly, I want to tell you, thank you for being a part of this, your support, love and encouragement is what makes all of this possible, so I say thank you very much, that is all I have for today . I'll be back tomorrow. I can't wait to see Sarah and the girls and I appreciate you taking care of yourself.

God bless you and we're leaving.
