Hi Rod, love the video. I'm heading to Quennell in a week for some fishing too. But I can't figure out where to launch and park from. Can you help me out? Did you lunch just off Ritten Road?
Yep that's correct.
Great work with the kids Rod. Making an impact on the young minds is very important, thank you for doing that.
Thank you for the kind words and encouragement. :)
Always look forward to your next video Rod. You and Kitty make a great fishing pair. I like what you're teaching the kids about littering. Very important! Super plus to see how you both handle the fish you guys catch. So many would just toss a bass back in the water. Awesome video guys!
Thanks! Yeah it's very important for us to emphasize proper handling of fish that we want to release. Hopefully others will do the same too. :)
Can you fish triple hooks in fresh water BC? Didn’t know that was a thing…..
In BC, single barbless hooks are required for all rivers. For lakes, treble and barbed hooks are allowed, with some exceptions which are stated in the regulations for those particular lakes.
Love your content Rod. Keep them coming!
Thanks Ben!
Awesome place for fly fishing with poppers,
Another Great video Rod.
Thanks! :)
Fished Quennell Lk. twice in my life and guess what the lake has beaten me both times . So to see you guys catching fish is awesome . Thanks for another great vid Rod and Kitty .
Ernie
Awesome vid guys! Like you said, all it takes is one fish to make your day. 👍🏽🙂
Yep, quality over quantity. :)
Ide love to get out here with my fly rod! Maybe have some popper action who knows.
Where abouts did you find that boat launch??
I just looked on Google Maps, and did a search on Nanaimo's websites. There are a couple of launches on that lake and they are fairly easy to find.
Yea we headed there yesterday and drove around the entire lake. Only managed to find the one at the campsite
@@brandynwood5872 this launch is at the end of Ritten Rd. You will see a gravel parking lot. Cheers!
Thank you!!
The editing near the beginning of the video when you first went out was really good. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Connor! :)
Wauw, incredible video-content, Rod and Kit!
Love the way you guys, show your passion for fishing. I know how much work goes into such videos!
Keep it up - Applause here from Europe! :-)
Thank you Nick, we appreciate the comment. :)
we been out slayin the carp down island . night is the best time for " the wall" Tight lines guys
We haven't been back to the wall since last year! Need to go again...
One of the last times we were out the buddy that I was with that day pulled a 20-pounder. You guys have a Facebook page?
Yep. :) Link is in the video description, channel's about section, or the header.
I gotta ask... what’s the wall? Lol
What time of year is this?
00:20
You need to come back to St. Mary lake on SSI. I went out for 3 hours this morning and landed 26 bass, just drifting a single shoreline. Not all large fish, but scrappy none the less
Yes!! Actually that was exactly what I said while we were filming this haha...
one of my favorite lakes for bass! frogs can be a blast there too, best day had to be 10+ bass in a 6 hour day. must have caught them pre spawn or spawn, they hit just about everything that moved.
Awesome, we'll have to go back there and give it another go. :)
heading there this week with a handful of frogs. first time there, any tips and best place to launch a car topper?
Luv the quiet electric power, no gasoline. Gentle and clean on the environment.
Yep! I enjoy the silence, makes the experience so much more enjoyable.
Also you should head down to Campbell river I can show you some wicked spots 😁
Campbell River? For bass?
No just trout unfortunately
Nice video, how is with the choice of hooks for bass in BC. Thought single barbless only in all freshwater bodies?
Sounds like a spider went in the boat at the end
Spider went into her hair.... lol
We have world class bass fishing here but i'd trade it for BC trout anyday!
A bit of everything is nice. Some days I love trout, other days I enjoy bass.
Love your videos, Rod and Kitty, however, bass fishing starting at 10:30? Get there at daybreak for some fun topwater fun!
Definitely! Years ago we used to get up before dawn for the top water action (or just better bass fishing in general). Now sleep seems to be prioritized as we are older lol...
hey Rod and the team, can you please make a video about your fishing boat ? I'm looking for a boat just like that but not sure what to buy. Thank you in advance. Cheers
There is a video on the boat already actually. :)

Kitty, you need to tighten up that drag a bit!! Nice fish.
Three hours for one fish?
Last month we went on a one week trout fishing trip. I caught one fish in four days!
Hey Rod I'm wondering what set up that is you're using to load/unload your boat and where I would get one? Thanks.
The electric boat loader is made by 4boys www.4boysmfg.com. There is a video about it on this channel actually, just search "electric boat loader". :) They are based in Kelowna, but can ship anywhere in North America.
Fishing with Rod awesome thank you!
How deep can you fish with the float setup?
sad, so sad.
What's so sad?
