  • I built a primitive fish trap at the Mountain Farm to go Trout fishing. After a quick update at the Farm, I head to the lake to try out my new fishing trap. Ice fishing was a bit sketchy due to warmer weather and rain... Plus will the trap work?

    There's a cave in iceland famous for their absolutely massive trout, if you ever decide to go on a holiday definitely recommend visiting it. It's called Lake Thingvellir.
    We're talking trout over 30lb!!

    It takes about 3-4 weeks of consistently warm/rainy weather for the ice to be effected, that being said if there is any water on top of the ice that adds a lot of weight and could compromise the integrity of the ice and should be fished with extreme caution! Your killing it on the ice man, an absolute fish whisperer on the soft and hard water! Congrats on the new property leif!

  • @ariofsouthdakota
    @ariofsouthdakota Před rokem +1

    Once you put the fish on the ice, they are dead. they dont die instantly but once they hit the ice they are goners. Id recommend the next time you want to put a fish back but need a pic of it. Get the pic of it in midair then release them. or have something warmer than the ice to set them on. not too warm or you will send them into shock. You and Simple Living Alaska inspired me to start my own youtube channel so thank you. I was literally watching your video while editing my latest vid lol.

    The thing you called an old school well is probably just a cistern. They’re commonly used for plumbing such as septic waste which depending or not if you have a septic field it would drain most of the liquid out into that. What they’re also commonly used for is rain water collection say if you have a garden you can pump from that if you have a rain barrel or something that feeds into it. Hope this helps!
