 Welcome back to Fishin' Camp, Fishin' Breaks. Taking the fly gear y'all. I'm not an expert at this. This is fun. I gotta do some re-rigging right now. I gotta put some new tippin' on. Goin' with four pound test indicator and this current is moving really slow. So, it's important to get that movement just right and we're gonna try to get our three trout using the fly and have a little fun in the process. Let's wait for the sun to come up and let's get out there on the water. Snag some trout. There we go, baby. Come here. Little dinner. Little dinner, buddy. You are goin' on the dinner table tonight, my friend. Readly. Readly. Look at that fly. Look at that mop fly. I'll stream you up. I've already got one. It's dark. It's just deep. There's a lot goin' on. Once you slip, one more for the stringer. Got a little indicator out there. Just gonna wait for that to go under. Give it a nice yank. Uh-huh. Oh, just did. For sure. It's the biggest one I've caught so far today. Doing the death roll here. A little fly out. Get him on here. That is going to fulfill my stringer, folks. Came out here and got it done in about ten minutes. But I'm going to continue fishing. I want to practice getting a little better with my fly skills. My fly skills. Alright, there we go. That's a beautiful thing. That's dinner tonight. Going back to the farm. So I've got a small little cork on the line. About two and a half. Almost two, three-quarter foot up the line. And then I've got this little... It's called a mega worm. It's basically a, you know, a piece of yarn. A little tiny jighead on it. Like a one-thirty-second ounce jighead. And I've just got... I don't even have a tippet. I need to get better at rigging. But I've got four-pound test onto my fly line. And that depth of the indicator is just off the bottom. So I'm trying to just put it right off the bottom. And usually there's some current. And it'll just float by the fish. But right now they're just sort of swimming around in this pool. If you get a little wind, it drifts it. But I'm not moving it. And it is straight up like we are bobber fishing. Number four. Smoking that mega worm today. Munch it on the nibble. Here, I want you to get that spot down where they're at. That's the jam. How do I put my net, buddy? Freaking took off with it. There we go, guys. This is fun. That's all that fly is. It is just a piece of yarn. Yes. All right, y'all. We have managed to capture our limit early. And I caught a few extras just for fun. But I'm going to throw them in the cooler right now. We're going to take them home. We do family dinners on the weekend. Mom's been wanting some trout. So we're going to do some trout. All to the cooler. Welcome home back to the treehouse where we're doing things outside. I come home. This is out here with a rake. Getting the garden stuff ready. If there's something, she's a nester. When I leave, she's a nester. I come home. There's just new things. It's always fun, especially when I go on long trips. So she's actually getting a flower bed ready to plant some blue bonnets. That's a pretty Texas thing to do right there. Yeah, you can see those were like some old wildflowers. I don't know. I think those are good. So I got a six trout. Okay. And how hungry are you for some trout? Those are good for dinner, right? Yeah. Okay. You want to go check on the eggs, son? I heard the chicken squawking out there. There must be some egg laying going on. I'm hearing some mega squawkers. Right before I left, there was another chicken that started laying eggs. And I think it's the frizzle. It's a teeny little egg. A little tiny. It looks like a little ping-pong. So there's my old big blue. That's my big blue right there. That's my other prairie blue bell. The other one's in the box right now. She's super flighty, but maybe she'll let us take a peek. Let's see what's going on. Hey, girl. Hey, girl. Oh, yeah. She's in the zone. Looky there. Look at those little eggs. That little one. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You'll plant those seeds. They fly me. That's cool. There's a rod. There's a bunch of rod tubes sitting right here. And we're just going to have to open those. Some of these are going to be bass rods. I'm hoping a couple of these are some more of those micro rods, because that's what I use the most. I've been fishing and trout fishing like we did today. This is a micro rod. This is the one that I was really waiting on right here, the ultra light. So I've been fishing with the lights, which have been pretty much perfect, I would say, for most of the trout and crappie situations, especially the crappie. Sometimes with the trout, I want a little bit lighter for throwing very small stuff. I'm throwing the bigger rooster tails and things like that. That's not very necessary, but throwing the really, really light lures, having the ultra light is key. Plus it's fun for bluegill and other things like that. So I'm going to slap this 1,000 size green series reel on here. That right there is going to be a meat getter and a fun time, ladies and gentlemen. These are launching in February, so you'll be able to get your hands on them. Both the green series and the gold series, which I've been using mostly in my videos, but finally got stocked up on some. We're going to be good to go for this season. There's a little buggy whip right there. Look at that. What does that look like to you? A boat. That's right. I was hoping there would be a sticker in there, a Guggen sticker. She's wanting some Guggen stickers, she said. Yeah, maybe next year Christmas. Yeah, Christmas? I think Santa could take care of that. We are going to do some fish cleaning, y'all. Amy said, told her it was going to be messy, but she said she likes to follow daddy and watch what he does. And that's how she learns. So, are you sure you can handle this? Yep. Okay. It's going to be a little yucky. You want to feel those slimy fish? Uh-huh, they might. Check them out. Think they're going to bite you? Because they have tight teeth. What kind of fish are those? Rainbow trout? Good job, Amy. How did you know that? Are they going to wiggle when I touch them? I don't think so. They're too cold. Does that feel a little fish-fish? Trout like really cold water and trout like to eat bugs. And they usually live in streams. Cold streams. And they're very pretty and they have very good meat. And your mommy and your Mimi love them. So that's what we're cooking up tonight. I love salmon. With balsamic vinegar on it. With balsamic vinegar on it? You are just like your mama. Okay, now I'm going to show you how to clean these trout. It's really easy. And I think you might could even do it next time. Yeah. That's right. That's the perfect thing to use. I got Amy a little, her first Swiss Army knife. I doled it down. Don't worry. I grinded it down. So it's round, not sharp. But it has little scissors on it. It has a little file. It has a little toothpick. It's got her name on it. It's a little pink one. That's for when we're going on camping trips and hiking trips. We got a bucket. We got a knife. We just need some water. And then we're going to clean them, drop them in here. This is the easiest fish you'll ever clean. I'm not filleting these trout. There is a way you can fillet trout but it's very difficult on small ones, on these little ones. I just, basically we eat them whole body. Skins, crispy and all. Yeah, you can take your little fish leash off of there. Thumb and bass boats. All right. Tiny little trout right here guys. Kept the first one because I wasn't sure. We just have to cut it. Yep. We go right behind the head. Just like that. And then we go up from the vent. And we go up towards the gills. Until you reach about where those pectoral fins are. You might see a male. You might see a male. You know what? You were right. Um, this is a trout. This is a male. This is a male. It means it's a boy. All right. Then we just pull that head down and the guts. We could give this to the chickens. They'd probably like it. You want to try it? I'll leave it right there if you're brave enough to touch that fish head. And then we're just going to push this stuff out right here. It's a little bloody. It's just a little bloody. A little gooky. Pinch it off. That's going to be for Mimi. You can tell her that you cleaned it. All right. We'll take that off. Okay. I've got to use the knife because it's real sharp. Why do I keep it up there? I don't want you playing with it all the time. You know, Daddy played with the knife a couple of years ago. You remember what happened? Oh, you cut your knee. I did. I cut it right by my knee and what happened to me? Yeah. I had to get a lot of stitches. Say, chicken want a trout head? Chicken want a trout head? A little fish head treat form. Maybe the next fish head. Okay. We just got to catch more fish. That's all. Okay. All right. We're just going to clean out the middle. You throw it in there. Okay. Got that butter, lemon. SPG or no? No spice? Straight up. Going on the egg. You missed your trout camp this year, Dad. You know, I wish I could have made it. I hope I get an invite next year. All right, everybody. This trout is ready. If you've never cooked these little trout like this the way that you eat them you're going to take your fork after they're cooked and that meat is nice and soft and you're going to pull apart right there at that rib cage at midsection and go in the direction of these bones right here and that will keep you from getting bones in your bite. And you can kind of pick apart the little stuff but you take that fork and it just kind of gets in there in between those nice clean bite like that and then the top, up here by the spine you just push it off and it's really clean. So it's a little bit different bone set up and makes for a little bit easier eating. Put that right there, my friends. It's a freshly caught trout about to go with my mouth. Lemons and black pepper got to have that butter in there and that tinfoil and then cook them on there until that meat just starts to peel off the bone really easily and enjoy the fruits that come from the mountain streams from our good Lord or the fish farms. Either or, very delicious full of protein and a great outdoor meal. It's time to put away the phones and the cameras and go enjoy family dinner night and enjoy these delicious trout that we just caught. So thank you guys for tuning in to these vlogs this week. I am about to fly out to Florida for some bass fishing for Guggen Week and I think we are going to crush it. It is setting up to be a really good week so if you guys want to stay tuned for more bass fishing go over there to the Guggen Squad Channel subscribe to that and subscribe to this channel right here because you know we do it. We do it on the outdoor action. I hope you enjoy the outdoor world with great passion just like I do and I'll see you guys on the next one.
