Fishing on Foot Footprint Expanded

A while back I mentioned that I had created a YouTube channel, Fishing on Foot, which focuses exclusively on fishing that can be done without a boat. From wading trout streams to casting from the surf to walking pond banks, I cover all kinds of Fishing on Foot in video form.

I grew up fishing from piers and bridges and from the banks of ponds and creeks, and while I’ve enjoyed opportunities to experience so many types of fishing over the years, the stuff I can do on my own two feet has remained my passion. I think anglers tend to overlook the quality and variety of fishing that can be found without aid of a boat, and I like the opportunity to share that message.

The channel has grown gradually since I created it and now has a little more than 500 subscribers. Meanwhile, I’m even more gradually learning about video production and channel management.

Recently I decided to deepen the footprint of the Fishing on Foot message by creating a new blog, which you can find at fishingonfoot.com. Blogging is a format that’s more familiar to me and that is easier for me to feed regularly, even when I haven’t had opportunity to get out and gather fresh video content.

Like the YouTube channel, the new blog will focus on angling opportunities that do not require a boat, with a mix of destinations, how-to articles, gear discussions, tales of Fishing on Foot outings and more. It’s simply in a blog format for folks who still enjoy reading stories and seeing photos instead of only watching videos.

Of course, I hope you’ll check out the blog and the channel and that you’ll find things you enjoy and learn from in both places!

YouTube Channel about Fishing Without a Boat

A fairly new venture for me has been the establishment of my Fishing on Foot YouTube channel. As the name suggests, this channel is all about fishing that can be done on without aid of a boat, whether that means walking a lake's bank, wading a creek or river, walking out onto the ice, fishing from a pier or wading a saltwater flat. 

It's a work in progress, and I'm still in the process of figuring out the tone and types of videos that will be the most prevalent, but I feel like it will lean heavily on how-to and destination content, where I can share some of my experience and hopefully make on-foot fishing experiences more fun and productive for anyone who chooses to tune in. It's also a learning project. I admittedly don't have much video production experience, so I'm figuring stuff out as I go. I hope you'll consider following the channel and joining me as I step farther into this venture. I've inserted a few videos from the channel.
