Catching My BIGGEST Pike, Exploring Yukon's Dawson City! | Fishing with Rod #pikefishing #fishing
In summer 2023, I travelled to the Yukon Territory once again, visited Dawson City, explored the Dempster Highway, fly fished for Arctic grayling and caught the biggest Northern pike I have ever seen.

    Hi Rod. Great channel and I love that you fish with Linda Lee. You two are definitely a dynamic duo that are entertaining and educational. I’m fairly new to your channel and have been fishing the Douglas Lake areas and Hwy 42. If you haven’t done one, would you please consider doing a video on chironomid gear? Like what you have found to be dependable and appropriate: 1. net; 2. since you’re not trolling, what capacity 12v battery is necessary; 3. Jon boat sizing; 4. pros and cons of seat types; 5. size/type of fish finder; 6. rod holders; 7. anchor requirements, etc. I just bought a Spratley 10’5” boat and am slowly trying to figure out the appropriate gear to match it with. I’d rather not have to buy stuff twice so that’s why I’m asking if you’d consider doing a video like this. Thank you :) P.S. a contest to fish with you or Linda Lee would be so amazing.

    Great video, Rod, it was worth the wait. So happy my fly worked out for you guys. I came up with it during my first trip to the Yukon in '97 (1997, not 1897) Then I knew nothing about pike fishing and I met a First Nations fellow selling ice cream in the parking lot of Five Finger rapids. I asked him what do pike like, and he answered "Anything red and yellow" So I tied the most outrageous looking thing I could imagine. Linda's soliloquy at the Midnight Dome about why go to the Yukon is brilliant and true. "There's a land where the mountains are nameless, And the rivers all run God knows where...There's a land - oh it beckons and beckons, And I want to go back - and I will." May be doing my 5th summer trip in a row this August.

      @FishingwithRod 7 днів тому

      These stocked rainbow trout are "semi-wild". They go into the lake at around 8 to 10g large/small, and spend a few years growing to these sizes. Unless there are some extensive damages at the hatchery when they are little, these fish usually look perfect when caught.

They are about 6 grams when stocked and survive to return (to our facilities) at less than 0.5%! Interestingly, our Chinook contribute most heavily to BC troll fisheries. The program has produced a big sport fishery in Coos Bay that is worth 7 or 8 million dollars to the local economy!
