Catch and Cook BIG TROUT GRAPHIC GUT, CLEAN & FILLET Cook on a STICK

We do a catch and cook fish on a stick on a camp fire in the woods. We gut, clean and fillet the fish before cooking it fresh on a stick over an open camp fire in the forest. Cooking it primitive style in the woods was highly rewarding. We caught the fish by fly fishing. For the recipe, I used salt and pepper as seasoning, added some fresh lemon juice and then slowly cooked the fish over the heat of the fire. I boiled up some rice to go with it. I use primitive technology to create the fish hanging stick. Using natural cordage from pine tree roots in the ground. The main support stick was from a beech tree, as were the small side support sticks. The trout fillet was secured to the stick and lashed with the tree roots

Mike, Greetings sir from the US. Absolutely love your videos. My 9 year old daughter and I watch your videos, and she wants to go back out and camp with less equipment than we usually take. She wants us to build our own site, which we plan on doing this summer. Thank you for inspiring us One question. I noticed that you are making a number of videos on bush crafting. Have you ever thought about doing perhaps a video on different types of ways to build fires or different techniques? Have you ever heard of or used a dakota fire pit? Just curious, sir. Keep making awesome videos. You have inspired a little 9 year old girl over here to go out and experience the outdoors

Loved the video, the trout looked great. I like your content as it is always well presented and informative. Not sure about the intro showing so much detail up front, I always enjoy the surprise of what ever comes next and not so much the thought of when that one clip you saw at the start is going to pop up. Whatever you choose is your favoured delivery style I will go with. I just do other things till you start talking I. e. Make a cup of tea and then get comfortable. Keep them coming though.

That algorithm is messed up for recommending stuff. Watch one weird chiropractic video, and six different lines of videos are in my recommended feed, along with Naruto stuff I never watch, and shit tons of wrestling videos. But stuff I watch regularly? Hardly there at all, or not there at all. They may want to watch their shit, but I don't. So, watched all the way through, thumbs up, and going back to update 14 just to see what you and your dad did. Goodnight from NS, Canada.

I've always kept my fish on a stringer (usually leaving them alive until I'm ready to head home. I never bother bleeding out trout. I save that for American Shad, catfish, and most saltwater species (notably blue fish. sometimes I'll bleed bass out as well, though that usually depends on the body of water. Sometimes bleeding out the fish right after dispatching it helps make the meat taste a bit less offensive for those who don't like strongly-flavored fish.

Thanks so much Mike. I need to learn about fishing for 'Survival' and it's not really anything I've ever wanted to do because of what happens to the animal once you've caught it but I have come to realise it's a life skill I may truly one day need in the near future and so I'm very grateful to you and your Dad for teaching us this with such skill and aplomb Keep the vids coming: DAll the Best to you both From Donna Hooper

I use a stringer for all the fish that I keep but I keep them on the stringer live so they stay fresh longer. I also gut my trout a little differently. I run my knife in between the two slits under the lower jaw and cut forward after I have made the cut under the belly. By doing that you can grab, essentually the tongue, where you made the cut and pull that rearward and all the guts come with it. It makes it really simple.

I always watch all the way through, sometimes I watch more than once. I love all of your videos but this was extra good. the Graphic Content is just real I like real Like you said, it's actual life experience and life skills that we should all have but a lot of kids today are lacking. That's a whole other story lol. Anywhoo, thanks for another great video, I know I'm behind, but I'm catching up right now Cheers

All I'd have done differently is to kill the fish instantly rather than let it flop about drowning. I caught my first ever fish a couple of weeks ago (line-caught albacore tuna, around 5kgs) and we had an icky stick to kill them immediately through the brain. The folks I fished with are pescetarian and the only fish they eat is what they catch themselves. It was a really eye-opening trip and I learned a lot

Mike, can I suggest 2 things that you might want to take when you cook out? first one is obvious but very versatile and that is oxo cubes. They add a lot to any cooking that needs seasoning and also make a very warming drink when it is very cold. Also a product called Aromat. it comes in a small shaker and adds incredible flavour to any seasoned food. It is made by Knorr and easy to get.

Hi Mike, I've been watching your videos since you were a teacher playing in your shed and I really enjoy most of them, with the exception of the ones where you don't talk. I don't think it's arty, I just find it rude somehow. So if I'm watching and you haven't bothered to speak to us in the first 3 - 5 minutes then I'm gone. Otherwise I will watch to the end. You asked for feedback; -)
