My pleasure! Thank you for watching

Hah! That was me! That's awesome! I'm sure I'll run into you again!

@@projectknifehand awesome , I try to paddle at least once a week, all over ri. two weeks ago we did a little canoe camping on the pawcatuk with the family

I was also just on the Pawcatuck. I'll be going back soon

Yeah I didn't run into a single truck on the Golden Road but I was on the lookout for them. I did however see them on my last trip to realty road and I just pulled off the side. It's not difficult just means you have to pay attention and give them the road.

Thanks! Working on something new now but this worked well

There were the few trees and overhanging obstacles. But no not really. I tried to keep it short but also show just about everything one would have to deal with. The beginning stretches are a bit windy so I'd say be cautious and it'd be fine. Little bit of a lift over right before the rapids on the left and then smooth sailing all the way to the take out

@@projectknifehand cool cool thanks. My wife and I put in at Bradford and paddled down to Potter Hill last year - definitely took longer than we planned on!

@@RhodySeth Nice. Yeah, now I need to do that one. I am going to try to attach a link for the watershed association that has excellent maps. You may know about it already. But if not it is an excellent resource with notes. wpwa.org/paddling-maps/

Like most places in Rhode Island, nothing official

Hey thanks for watching sir! It was pretty awesome. I need to head back and fish it now

My pleasure! Hope to get back up there soon!

I just got a new one actually. I will open it and check it out and let you know.

I see it up north too just not as much. Jerks are everywhere unfortunately

That's our opinion. I had no idea there is such a conspiracy to cover up their existence in Maine. And more rare, that is melanistic

@@projectknifehand Not to take away from the video, loved it also lol! Good times!

@KegstandOG not at all I understand! Thanks!

I love Maine. I have done several trips up there. Have a few videos for them too . Thanks for watching!

Appreciate the feedback. This is the first complaint I have gotten so I was not aware. I also have a pretty small channel and my videos are only now getting monetized so it is pretty new to me. After I upload and publish I always watch my own videos to pick up on errors and things like that. I did not find it all that annoying but "my audience" is what matters. I will take a look at where ads are placed. But it was understanding it was beginning and roughly middle.

Just figured out how to look into it. It is not quite 90 seconds, but it is heavy. Looks like every 2 or 3 minutes. Sometimes 4 or 5. Thanks for the heads up. I will take care of it

Thanks! and Thanks for watching! I am working on improving them, so it is always good to hear.

Thank you sir! Good luck on your next bear hunt! 😉

@@projectknifehand someone just saw one on the street over from Carter Preserve - I'll find 'em!

I suppose that is a good way of explaining the feeling! I am glad someone like yourself, who has been here for years, enjoys my videos. I have tried explaining that anxiety to others in a similar fashion, but realization is a good way to put it. You realize she is the boss, and you are a pebble in the pond

Thank you! It sure was. Thanks for watching

My pleasure! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! I appreciate it and you watching!

That's awesome. I love Maine myself. I often feel like it's the last frontier! Well on the east coast anyway! Lol. I spend a lot of time up north. Whether it is there or NH. I do feel like it is where I belong.

@@projectknifehand we moved here in 2019 from Texas. My wife is from Bar Harbor and I’m from Syracuse NY best place in the world to live hands down. It’s like being on vacation everyday here. Plus the world is crazy right now and I feel very safe here in rural Maine if something went down

some day I hope to at least have a camp up there. Since I travel there so often. Frequent 8 hour drives are tough

Hi there! Thanks for watching first off. I know more about the action cameras and video then I do about that level of camera. He may chime in here or you can check out his channel and ask him if you like! I linked his page in the description.

Sure is. Folks will argue it is not enough, but I do not agree, and besides it is what I have.

@@projectknifehand if that’s what you have, then it’s perfect. Thinking about checking out the golden road late next month. I watched your video on it. Awesome. I’m gonna bring a G20 (10mm) with me. Hopefully I don’t need it. They don’t try to discourage you from bringing protection, do they?

10mm is what I have read a lot of folks prefer. I had the shotgun and I also carry my 9mm with FMJ in my chest pack. As far as I know they do not discourage it. Especially considering these are all hunted areas. And not to sound rude to anyone who is reading that is against it, but I don't care lol. It is Maine, and they allow it so I will! I appreciate you checking out my videos for sure. There is a lot of beauty up there and I am learning a lot about the areas I visit. Love it.

@@projectknifehand 12 ga with slugs is more than enough for bears.

Like I said I disagree with people who would say otherwise. They do exist, folks who think it is not enough. I am of the opinion a 9mm is enough for black bear. But the Mossberg came on this trip as well.

Thanks for watching! Yeah I'd like to go back with a better solo myself!

They are old school!

What's funny?

Lmao yeah it was a great time. And they hit the spot. Best part about gaggahs is you get enjoy them for hours, again and again

That's why it's in the title :)

Thanks I will try to check it out! And thanks for watching. Yeah this heat is killing me. No fun

I'm 5 foot 9. If your bed is the same size I'd be careful. I barely fit. But if your bed is wider it might work

I always do yes. Giving the paint and clears plenty of time to cure certainly increases durability. Especially on plastic. It's hard to get paint to bond to plastic. It takes far longer to cure. So you can start with a bonding primer or you can wait like two weeks to cure lol

Thanks! I get fancy sometimes lol

Thanks for the kind words and for watching! I'm going back very soon to explore some different areas. Camping from a vehicle definitely makes camping more appealing and reachable for many people.

Thank you for that! I started to get away from making them and focusing on my videos.

You will have them VERY soon!

I have used dry ice once and I believe it was on this trip. I put a small amount on the bottom lined with cardboard as suggested. Then the rest of the cooler was filled with a mix of regular ice and ice packs. It worked well. Though I have managed to keep ice for several days using little hacks here and there without dry ice. Using large ice packs or frozen water bottles mixed with cubes and cutting a piece of pink foam for a topper with relectix adds a lot of time to the cooler imo. Most cheaper coolers the lid isn't insulated well

I think it's mostly being in the sun and or heat. Riding a bike all day can make you feel tired itself though. Though I think it's because of the constant high level of awareness.

Thanks. All of that has been done at this point. I am working on ideas to redo the build

Hey thanks man! Was wondering if you got the email!

@@projectknifehand No I didn't I found out watching part 2

Ahhh makes sense. Yeah shot you an email a few days ago i think it was. Either way thanks for watching!

Hah thanks! I can do a bit better but sometimes it's tough cooking while camping. I try to eat well on adventures. It's half the fun for me.

The Golden Road is 100 miles long and passes through a few

Yes sir. Very much thankful it wasn't worse. Thanks for checking out the video! Lots to work on for the next episode

Thanks Joe! It's pretty heart breaking the way it ended after everything that was invested in it. I could have done better in terms of decision making. But nothing I can do about it now. I appreciate it. I'm working on another piece of the trip now.

Thanks for that! The largest differences are in price, water type, and comfort in my opinion. I still really want to get a blackfoot angler. However, I got the Pike because it is cheaper, comes with a pump, and the footrests are far better. The blackfoot is self bailing though so better for rougher water. The NRS Pike is definitely more of a flat or calm water boat. Better for ponds and sleepy moving water. You can take the blackfoot on rougher stuff. But it costs more, then you have to buy a pump. I wasn't ok with spending nearly 1400 on an inflatable kayak and then immediately having to drop more cash on it just to pump it up lol. They have Amazon air pumps on their site for double what they can be purchased for on Amazon. So that's why I went with the Pike. Better foot rests which were important to me, and it's usable right out of the box with no other purchases.

@@projectknifehand awesome thanks for the quick reply! Ya im set on the Pike Pro cause it comes with all the accessories as well, which I dont have. Can you stand pretty easily to cast on the Pike? Is it stable enough? Also how is that seat on after a full days of fishing? Comfortable enough?

Personally I don't stand when I fish. I'd love to but most of the time even with boats that say you can I find them wobbly. I did stand in the Pike and I was able to. But I didn't feel great doing it. It's an excellent boat and I never felt the need to stand and fish from it. So no help there really. As far as seats go it doesn't get much better. If you want to go the extra mile you can toss a foam pad on it. But I haven't felt the need to. I skipped the pro because I had all the stuff it came with mostly. I did like the fishing crate but I already had a cheap crate I use.

@@projectknifehand awesome thanks a lot for this!

It's a great place to be!

I don't know why folks keep saying that. Am I missing something? At what point did I cut on teflon?

it is literally a plastic plate

@@projectknifehand The chipping made it look like a Teflon frying pan. I see now it's a plastic plate.

Lol nah I carry that plate for that reason. It's basically a cutting board I can eat off. At least you were not like the other guy. Telling me I'm a hack and a poser because he didn't pay close enough attention

@@projectknifehand lol. I have a thing about Teflon. If the plate works for you then you do you.

They are awesome! A go to for me!

Thanks man! Now we both have jacked up legs! How is yours doing?

@@projectknifehand leg's getting there, thanks. I'm running again - now just have to build up leg strength.

Despite my hatred for running I was also doing it on our ifit treadmill. Was down a few pounds and it was going well...now I'll have to start over when I can run again.

Mostly! Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. Part of what I try to include in my videos is the conversation and moments of frustration. That being said I generally don't take the time to fool with the cameras when I'm in the middle of something. That is, I didn't before. My videos have changed and gotten better I'd argue. There is less useless stuff in them. To answer your question....because I didn't know any better lol. Not a pro, just a dude who likes making videos hah

Thanks for that and for watching! I let it go. It was our last night, and I had unfrozen meat in the cooler. I try really hard not to be wasteful if I'm going to take something. I pack a little differently now so next one is getting bonked over the head lol
