- In this episode of Addicted Life we're on the river with our very own Nick Popov, Cameron "The Legend" Black, and Ryan McCaughan of Riverside Guide Service. These 3 professional fishing guides took a day off from guiding to help gather wild broodstock fish and contribute to the future of our steelhead fisheries. It's super early in the season and the fishing is tough! Watch the full episode to see all the tricks Nick, Cameron, and Ryan pull out to put fish in the livewell. The day turns out to be a REALLY good day of steelhead fishing! Broodstock programs should be utilized across Washington, Oregon, California, & more. A lot of our rivers NEED broodstock programs and can support them. Using an in basin genetic we can help restore and maintain healthy and robust fisheries for all of our rivers, creating hatchery fish for harvest, boosting local economies, and most importantly helping recover and restore steelhead & salmon rivers across the PNW. Broodstocking should be used in conjunction with other habitat restoration projects & continued dam removals where we can! Lets help change the narrative keep educating the people around you that HATCHERIES are not bad. Thanks for watching everyone, lets share this one around and spread the word.
Check Out Hatchery & Wild - hatchery-wild-...
Hatchery & Wild Coexist is a campaign highlighting the importance of fish hatcheries and the role they play in wild fish recovery and providing abundant fisheries. For decades hatcheries have provided important mitigation for the loss of naturally spawned salmon and steelhead while providing for fishing opportunity. They have helped ensure the ongoing existence of many salmon and steelhead runs and the fisheries they provide.
Hatcheries have been scapegoated by some as the cause of the decline of wild salmon and steelhead populations. That faulty premise has led to drastic reductions, and in several cases complete elimination, of hatchery supplementation in hopes of reviving wild fish numbers. It has also been a distraction from addressing the ongoing and actual causes of declining wild fish populations.
Hatcheries are not the cause of the decline of wild fish. The truth is that other factors have largely driven the declines in wild fish, including habitat, hydro, and overharvest. After years of hatchery cuts and budget reductions, recent scientific studies show removing hatchery fish does not, by itself, result in an increase in wild fish. Contrary to the false anti-hatchery narrative, evidence shows that well-managed hatcheries and wild fish recovery are not mutually exclusive.
Hatcheries can help increase the number of wild fish. Experience, substantiated by science, shows well-designed and properly implemented hatchery programs can help increase wild fish numbers. In fact, there are examples of where hatchery programs have been used to bring back runs that were on the brink of extinction. Hatcheries are an important option that when used properly result in healthy and abundant fisheries.
It is time to change the anti-hatchery narrative. History - and science - shows hatcheries can be operated consistent with wild fish recovery and abundance. Hatcheries are also critical to enjoying robust and healthy fisheries. IT’S NOT HATCHERY VS WILD IT’S HATCHERY AND WILD

Smash that thumbs up button on the video if you SUPPORT Broodstock! Let's get this one out there Addicts!! 🙏
Not sure I understand the broodstock program. Is there additional information available explaining the entire process of the broodstock program?
@Gabriel Morath I watched the same documentary.. It was by Patagonia. I found it to be a load of garbage. People want to solve a real problem they need to go after commercial fishing. Want fish back in your rivers start going after those who drag giant nets in the ocean. Commercial fishing isn't sustainable and as soon as people figure this out and stop it the soon fish populations will rebound. Now we have to worry about China and the distant fleets fishing all over the world. People need to speak up and show your disgust for these unsustainable practices.
What Cameron was saying why don't we make a petition to the state to bring those holding tanks on every river that has steelhead to help our hatchery programs.
I couldn’t agree more!
"This program should be in every damn river". The legend has it right on the money. Good job fellas!
We need these programs on our Puget Sound rivers. Imagine how much pressure it would take off all the open rivers if the other "S" rivers were open again.
After seeing that video, I have a new hope. A hope for my boys and someday my grandkids will one day have the opportunity to experience the magic that comes from hooking into a steelhead. It’s impossible to put a dollar value on it, and yet, somehow they do. Thanks guys, thank you very much.
Nice way to end a Sunday, With some Addicted Life!
To Troo to be troo
God bless you guy's
Best episode ever! Broodstock is the answer for the future of the species.
Ryan “fish come out of the pocket like a rocket!” Love it!!
I ran into Nick at my local grocery store again. He was on the phone so i didn't bug him but man is cool to see the legend in person!
That netting at the beginning was so intense, you guys have been pumping out awesome content lately. Jordan's PB Steelhead was one of my favorite Addicted vids ever.
Back in the 80’s the Yakima River had a bunch of steelhead. I was small and watched my dad hook a lot. I want a program like this to bring steelies back to my area. Great video guys
Ya'll kick ass! What an amazing, well-rounded operation Addicted has become. Yet to find an episode/tutorial I haven't enjoyed. Also, appreciate you guys putting me on some trout here in GA and some Salmon/Steelhead, in MI, for our yearly boys trip.
I'm telling my friends and family and spread the word and going to get that started good video and keep them coming
Yes some winter steelhead!! That was a beautiful hen at first. Thanks for helping broodstock guys. Fish on!!🐟
You guys are studs for this one! Its pretty basic math, its a shame how managers have ruined allot of what we have here, but the future is bright with what you guys are instilling in the fishing community, thanks!
These programs need expansion and support here in the Pacific Northwest. Especially Washington. Gotta get everyone on board to make this a reality. It can be done, steelhead fisheries can come bouncing back with good ocean conditions and good management
Too many Liberal powers in charge.
We have currently almost zero hatchery programs up here on the Olympic Pennisula and its just sad to watch this all fall apart due to either lack of funding or mismanagement. There are some really fun rivers and we cant even wet a line in them. Thank you guys for all you do and provide for us anglers out there.
Killer, Im assuming December! i lost some fish there in december. Stoked for the upcoming steelhead vids!
Just got home from a 16 hour nurse shift at the hospital and a what great way to end the day with some Addicted!
Thank y'all for getting those early fish in there!!!! I greatly appreciate it! The quibbling over non existent eggs was hilarious. Real fishermen
Hell yeah! Love the broodstock programs. Thanks for doing this guys! I would love to help out with it. I guess I almost crossed paths with Nick on the Wilson not too long ago according to other boaters.
Probably my favorite video so far! Thank you for the information and education on this incredible program. You are 100% right they should have them on every river! I just donated to the program on the website you provided and bought a sticker for my truck. I encourage other viewers to do the same!
These guys are so stoked just to be stewards of the fishery, awesome.
Thank you guys for going the extra mile on keeping our rivers stocked!!!
Fishing for a cause, love it! Thank you for all of your work in conservation, ADX!
Love the efforts from the addicted crew I have come to appreciate the fish more when releasing more of them back into the river!!! YLTSI!!! Yeeeeewwww!!!
This just became my new favorite addicted life episode, amazing job!
I live in Clark County Washington growing up between the East and North forks of the Lewis river.While the North Fork still has decent returns the East Fork is decimated.We need hatcheries together with habitat restoration.
AGREED!! A couple of us grew up and live on those 2 rivers as well. Sad to see what’s happened.
@@AddictedFishing We used to have native runs up most of the creeks around LaCenter.Brezee creek,Jenny creek,Lockwood creek.The fish would stack up at the culvert at LaCenter school and we would go down and catch them with our bare hands.I wish the Cowlitz tribe would put a salmon/steelhead hatchery on the East Fork.The native people seem to do a better job than WDFW.Do any of you guys guide fish?If so what's your contact info?
Hope Washington state gets involved with this program, this video speaks for itself!!
Missed the Steelhead season this year, but it was too welcome a new daughter into the world, so it's worth it. In the meantime living vicariously through you guys!
Super awesome, keep up the good work!
Beautiful fish! Brood stock up and down the coast! Let's go!
SUPPORT BROODSTOCK!
Wish Washington would do this
Thanks for showing us this great idea. Fun trip I can tell. Fishing on boys and girls
It is a great system, and your right it needs to be on all rivers
Thank you guys for your work keeping this awesome species healthy for the future!
I grew up in Sonoma California and used to catch them when they ran up the small local creek. What a blast. I really miss it. Nothing like catching 15 lb. Steelhead in a small fast moving creek!! Best fight ever!!
Thanks again..
With the amount of seals I’m seeing in the rivers up close to spawning areas on few of the costal rivers were screwed
In 1877 Columbia River cannery operators, worried about the decline of the prized spring Chinook runs, organized the Oregon & Washington Fish Propagation Company, raised $21,000 in donations, and built a salmon hatchery on the Clackamas River. It was the first hatchery in the Columbia River Basin. The facility was operated by the U.S. Fish Commission and only partially funded by the cannery operators. Other contributors included the state of Washington. The facility operated until 1881 and then closed, apparently for lack of funding (The state of Oregon reopened it in 1888, then turned its operation over to the U.S. Fish Commission again in 1889) in case you were wondering Cam...
Cracking a cold one and watching addicted life 🔥
I wish that they had these programs on all River. Thanks for doing what you do!
Addicted should make a smaller net for trout...
Like a normal hoop net, but the net is in a V shape, as in the steelhead landing nets, so then it cratles the fish
Well done guys, you crushed it. I'm a firm believer in the hatchery programs. We use them here in Southern Ontario and it's run by the MNR, but unfortunately they don't stock that many rivers. Our steelhead and salmon populations are on the decline and they need to step up their game. They should be watching and learning from you guys.
My favorite river! Caught some monster steelhead & salmon there. I can't wait to see the future of the broodstock program!
Great video.
When are the popov gloves coming out
Popov paws
Every river needs broodstock program! We started the tubes in Idaho and IDFG has been all over the rivers grabbing them and transporting to hatcheries! Keep up the content. Stay fishy!!
Yooo I seen you guys that day! Nick popped it off 1st like always lol. I was in the white lifted yota!
Excellent program, thank you for making an effort to enhance our fisheries.
You guys have the life! Literally sitting in a tractor watching you nail the fish and am so jealous!
What an excellent video. Nice strong work to all of you guys. It is the future for our fish.
Great vid guys! Thanks! 😊👍
We love watching as a family. I’m also desperate to know what sunglasses Popov is wearing.
Awesome job guys!!
Absolutely love this episode and thanks guys for contributing your efforts to my favorite coastal river. East Fork Lewis is now wild fish only. It seems like a good to live broodstock some of those wildies into some nearby streams like the Kalama, NF Lewis, Coweeman, others? The genetics can't be that different and it would sure be good to spread out some solid catchable returns. IMHO
I just read an article on steelhead fishing in the great lake states.I appears that they have created a great fishery over there using genetics from the Washougal river.
@@MINITMANRADIONETWORK Yep. Skamania strain stock I think. Chinook and possibly coho salmon from the PNW were also used to create excellent fisheries in the Great Lakes. They had a big overpopulation problem with alewives. Great food for salmon.
It would be nice to see more fisheries!
I love this so much! Thank you guys for all that you are doing.
Great work guys, and no shortage of fun had on that day!
Heck yeah I support broodstock we need to do that down here in California also hopefully it's a trickle-down effect.
Great job. I caught a Stick Fish this morning myself. It was heavy as all can be.
Great stuff!
Glad to see the pros handle a net like us lowly peasants at times!
There just fisherman bro
@@georgeallen-griffin3628 I’m a golfer to and when I see a pro shank it dead left, I feel better about my miscues. They’re human yes but I guarantee you they put a heck of a lot more fish in their boat than I have for salmon and steelhead. They guide and catch fish well, they’re pros.
@@boattothebelly i know people who catch guide and catch alot more fish. There just fishermen bro. 😂
@@boattothebelly don't speak in generalities "us lowly peasants" speak for yourself pond hopper. There just fishermen, chill. 💀
@@georgeallen-griffin3628 Best of luck to you!
Almost as good as addicted Alaska 👌 keep it up guys!
Keep up the good work on the vids! Favorite fishing channel!
Sure would love to see this program in canada.
As someone who lives in Grays Harbor county, this is both awesome to see and disheartening. I feel like all the effort for something like this is falling on deaf ears at the local and state level. It would not be hard to put these on our rivers. I haven't been able to fish steelhead pretty much all of march on anything remotely "Local". I just don't understand the "wild" fish groups that have beef with broodstocking. They really think that the only option is the nuclear option of "close all hatcheries, stop all fishing and no more new buildings/industry". Those birds flew the nest a LONG time ago. It's time to broodstock the Grays Harbor, OlyPen and all washington rivers. Even IF it didnt help, it cant hurt? We've tried everything else.
It’s early season? It’s getting towards the end of the season for us all the way upstream in Idaho.
Every broodstock steelhead should be tagged. Would be very interesting to see how they travel.
Let’s go adx thanks. You contributed tens of thousands of eggs in a single day that’s amazing! 💯🔥🔥
amazing the edits are getting better and better!!!
Had to comment on cams awesome netting skills lol hats off to u guys for helping out with future steelhead
😂
Another benefit to the brood stock programs is that by removing those fish for the program you actually increase the viability fish spawning in the river by reducing competition for prime spawning beds.
Sweet video yes program is awesome
We did something similar in Idaho with b run fish and the fish and game put them way down stream not up stream like they said they were
I like Popovs style....dawn-dusk! 😎
Imo we quit a March fisheries and we get the native fishery to quit early spring salmon netting so those native steelhead can return the ocean without being accidentally netted but that’s for the pnw fish in Washington and I think we would see amazing returns in three years but must be a collaborative approach with wdfw fisheries and native fisheries to agree to do that otherwise it will be depleted
Nice Sitka Timber pattern jacket! I did not know you were a waterfowler! Where do you guys like to hunt?
Been waiting all day for addicted fishing! 🤘
Love the vid guys! Made me look into the program and whatnot...on a side note what kind of rubber gloves do you guys use? Iv been using the cheap ones but I go through a pair every 10 min it seems like.
Always good stuff. Conservation minded is the way to live. Breathing life into the Rivers ! Nice work fellas
Question for Nick. Where is your family from, if u dont mind me asking. Thx for the great vids.
Love the video’s. What gloves are all you wearing, especially those fluorescent ones?
You can get those gloves on our website
Thanks for the awesome work guys
I wish Ca. Dept of FG Would pull its head out of its a** and at least try. Way too many factors adversely affecting their sustainability. Hatchery programs are essential to help sustain the species. What used to be prodigious runs are now nearly extinct on the Cen Cal and Nor Cal coasts. Way to go Addicted 👊🏼 for promoting the awareness, ethics and content. You guys are the standard.
I would be happy to come and help you guys!
Great episode! Broodstock!!!
Sunday with the Legend 🍻
I LOVE TO GO FISHING SO FUN FUN KEEP ON FISHING NEVER STOP FISHING SO FUN FUN KEEP ON FISHING NEVER STOP FISHING 🎣 SUPER FAN OF ADDICTED FISHING SO FUN FUN 🎣🐟♥️😀 FISHING GRIL
Be curious to see a broodstock program in the puget sound
Niiiick take me with you guys... 🛐🤐I won't tell anybody 🤥😂 fish on brother. Nice fish my guy's beautiful
Share the eggs! WHOA! what a concept.
I'm curious what are the benefits of wearing surgical gloves? Scent? I thought it might be to keep your hands dry and thus warmer, but I started sweating and got cold right away. Keep up the great content. I love the videos, channel and webstore.
Jordan is the shit he is so f in funny. Keep do in what your do in. Gman
I wish that program was on my local river salmon population is fairly low
I know in Washington they have set very low quotas for what they need egg wise, once reaching the number there looking for they stock these steelhead into lakes for recreational-fishing in some cases. It seems odd to me how returns are becoming lower and lower and they aren’t breeding more fish.
Fish on 🎣 hell of a video fellas!
Awesome video my guys 🎣
what's the purpose of the gloves?? i'm a Colorado viewer so i'm not too familiar with steelhead fishing. Nice video tho guys!!
A lot of the scents and baits we use will stain your hands so some people especially those who fish a lot use them to save their skin and hands. They also keep your hands semi dry so they don’t get as numb.
Save the Chrome!!!!!
Such beautiful fish wow
How could you tell that small steel head was a summer steel head?
The new braid is 🔥
