awesome job as always Jeff thanks for sharing !!
-
another fantastic vid..and I still love your choice of music :)
-
Those are lamprey...
-
Amazing fishing. I hear it's about December when they go by here in Tanana but never saw anyone try for them. 4 to 5' of ice then is probably why?
-
These are not eel, they are lamprey.
-
That's a shitload of eels, wow, the numbers of them must be phenomenal. How do you clean and cook them, they look like an oily fish. Very nice video..you absolutely nailed it with that tune!!!
-
Wow lots of eels there!!
-
Where is it in Yukon, it looks very interesting, good music, great work。Real Alaska Life

Thanks Jeff, great video once again! Do they also come for spawning in the river or what is going on? I'm surprised to see how easily the yukon eels stay on the ice :) I've got some european eels in my fish trap, never eaten them so far but it's funny to watch how fast they find their way back to water. Old fishermen say it's better to have a wooden boat where you can nail the eel somewhere for taking it home :)
-
Very interesting. I imagine they would make good marten bait too.
-
no shit there is a market for those eels? nice I hope you get your cut before you freeze:-)
-
Maybe a video about preparing, eating. Is it dog food?
-
Yes we have smelt here on the Yukon river too.
-
How you know when they are running? Just keep going down to the river and testing until you catch some? Hear anything about if Pat Moore in Tannana got enough eals that he and his dogs can survive the winter? I'm friends with Charley Wright on FB maybe I will ask him. Give you a 5 on the music it suited the video but not Iatolla of Rock and Rolla type song.
