Hunting for Gills
Welcome to Hunting For Gills
I’d been meaning to start a YouTube channel for a long time. After going through cancer, I figured it was time to stop putting things off—so I hit record. Hunting For Gills became a way to focus on something I love.
I’ve always been into fishing—open water, ice, whatever. Then I got into making my own bait and plastics, and decided to share it here. Nothing fancy—just fishing, bait-making, and time on the water.
If that’s your thing, you’re in the right place.
Hook sets are free. 🎣
✅ Open water & ice fishing adventures
✅ DIY soft plastic bait-making
✅ Maybe a little recreational shooting & beekeeping, too
👀 And if you keep watching, you might even catch a glimpse of my bride of 35+ years out there with me. She doesn’t join me often, but when she does, it’s a blast—and I think you’ll enjoy it, too.
