4 solo professional YouTubers go into a remote Crown land lake for camping and laker fishing. This video for me is the best of 3 I’ve seen on this trip. Ted Baird is funny and I like how he edits and includes banter around the camp.

Hybrid solo where you travel in a group but everyone brings their own stuff, food, gear etc. has become my favorite way to trip. Oh and there’s 2 dogs along which is how I go as well.

Hope you enjoy this like I did.

I’m pretty sure they know they can expand their audience by going with other you tubers. Jim ain’t no dummy, going with Xander is a good business move too. Xander has a huge following. So his videos turn his audience on to those other guys.


Check out his road trip videos. He camps literally next to the Space X rocket.

Ted Baird released another group trip solo video. Spectacular river white water action and giant smallies in this one.

Because they had 4 youtubers all shooting for their own channels the footage is tremendous as they share all that was shot. His videos are becoming a real favorite of mine.

I haven't watched Ted's version yet, but have seen Jim's. Besides that Jim and Ted did the Magnetewan River with the Budnick brothers Xander and Maxim. I watched Xander's version and Jim's version was the second one up. Others will probably pop up in the near future.

Yeah I watched those too. I wasn’t a huge fan of Ted’s videos in the past, mainly just his editing style. With this latest one I see a big jump in quality. Maybe he took classes or maybe hired some help but I’m really impressed with this latest video of his. And he’s really funny too. He can be both silly and serious when need be. Jim’s like that too. It’s good to see them getting along so good again.

Hey Boonie, did you catch Xanders latest solo video? He cracks me up, he’s always trying new things with his drone. He was out in the canoe and wanted to get a cool shot by casting his lure right at it. Well, I’ll let you see it to find out what happens. :)


Also his recent road trip series is worth the watch. They are all short. And that truck he bought, who else would weld his key onto a screwdriver to start the thing? Then he sleeps in an abandoned Shell station near the Mexican border. And there’s pentagrams in graffiti on the wall. Only Xander. :)

I haven't caught up with them all yet, but I have enjoyed watching these group solo trips they've done. It's interesting to get the different perspectives and different personalities. There are others like Jon (Lost Lakes) and Xander, then Jon, Xander, Max, and Keenan (Canoe the North). I think they learn a lot from each other as far as editing content, etc. I think they have all improved.
