Well done Jesse! I especially liked the milking and ethical use of the fish. We need more guys like Dan and Darcy to keep the population healthy.

Great video Jesse. I’ve really enjoy your videos as I’m local to the area and love the educational element. Really interesting to see how they spear harvest and then put the fertilized eggs back again. Great to see them working to maintain and grow the population of walleye!

Really neat build of a spear. I support traditional native ways, but not using 21st century gear. Aluminum boats, four stroke motors and fiberglass spears with polarized sunglasses. Nothing traditional about that at all. At least there is an attempt to keep the fishery alive. The “traditional ways” slaughter of walleyes in Minnesota has effectively ruined some of the greatest walleye fishery’s we have.

Its sad that the fishery has been ruined up there. Its a stark contrast to here where the native spearing and hatchery program is the reason we have a world class fishery here. 3-5 million fry released a year as a result of the spearing/hatchery program ensures that my kids will be able to catch the same kind of giants that I enjoy catching today.

what a neat video..my kids are part chippewa indian, and are livg in upper michigan, Fayette.They have indian rights to do spearing but choose not to.Iv'e always wanted to know a little more about walleye spearing.After seeing this video i have a much better understanding of it.It's true it gets a baf rap by most fisherman but i think it they were more educated about it there would be less of a bad taste left in the mouth of many naysayers.

Hey there, and thanks for the reply. Unfortunately there are always bad examples which can tarnish the good. I think by getting the message out there that it can be done sustainably, we can start to turn that reputation around. This model is proven to work so well, and I am sure with just a bit of effort can be implemented elsewhere. And far from depleting fish stocks, the spear/hatchery model greatly increases them!

Spearing is less wasteful than what I’ve seen from salmon trollers on the Great Lakes. I’ve seen some guys lose 5 colors of lead at a time. I’ve seen line snagged all over the banks across the Great Lakes too.

I certainly feel for you guys who witness these kinds of things. At very least this video shows that sustainable first nations harvest is very possible. Although the hatchery wasn't open when I filmed this, perhaps this hatchery model can be used elsewhere to grow a sustainable fishery for native and non native alike.

I think you've missed the point. The natives are the reason these fish are here at all. Their hatchery puts 2-5 million fry into the river here each year. They take about 800. If a native spears a fish, it is milked, the eggs are hatched, and released. How many of the eggs from a fish you catch do you hatch and release, no matter the time of year?
