This is my first trip to the Chilliwack Vetter River
0:11
in search for winter steelhead I'm out of breath because I'm out of shape walking in here
0:17
I'm really excited It's really early so there's not a ton of fish in the system yet
0:23
but in the meantime the water is really really low so it'll give me an opportunity to check out the river
0:29
So I'm going to do a lot of hiking today and work on my fishing spots and my cardio
0:37
Here we go Going to get a shot of that Sun on the mountains there
0:51
Sorry I can't see it too well Zach what do you have to say to the camera this morning
1:00
It's cold and there's no fish here Cold and no fish I actually think both of those are untrue
1:08
Set up today This is the change up This is a pink mad river worm
1:17
with a little wool a red octopus hook and a cool thing I've got here
1:23
I think is pretty cool is this little guy here, this orange thing
1:27
that's called a cheater it's from BOMAC it's a little weight so it looks like a corky
1:35
but it's actually a weight and it helps get the bait in faster water down quicker
1:40
so it's kind of the same idea as putting it on a jig head but I just like the way this is set up
1:45
and you can hang it upside down like that get a little more action out of your tail
1:49
and it's actually a float so here you go, you've got your float right there
1:53
I've got my weight to balance it and I use the little dual locks here
1:59
see this little thing here is a dual lock so I can unclip the leader
2:03
really quick and change up my line or my lure to something else
2:07
like a spinner or a bait or whatever I want to put on there
2:13
a blade so it's kind of a nice way to quickly do that woo
2:27
I've got my guide, Pocahontas telling me where to go do I ruin your videos with my commentary
2:37
no, I just mute them out that's where that guy crossed like here
2:49
and then across there it's treacherous out here got some snow woah, made it
3:01
alright, we trek on woo
3:47

3:55

3:59

4:07
and he even brought some chips and some chips and some chips
4:15

4:25
straight from the bees I'm pretty sure they milked the bees to get this
4:31

4:39
