🎣How to Organize Fishing and Outdoor YouTube Channels into Folders

Why outdoor subscriptions benefit from an activity split

Fishing, hunting, and camping content don't overlap much in practice — a bass fishing technique video and a backpacking gear review serve completely different trips. Following creators across all of them means the feed constantly mixes unrelated activities, which makes it harder to prep for one specific outing.

Folder structures for fishing and outdoor channels

By activity

Fishing, Hunting, Camping & Bushcraft, Hiking & Backpacking. The most direct split — matches how you'd actually plan for a specific type of trip.

By content type (within fishing)

If fishing is your main interest, a further split by Technique & Tutorials, Gear Reviews, and Trip Vlogs can help once that folder alone grows past a dozen channels.

A sample setup

If you're not sure where to start, this layout covers most outdoor subscription lists:

• Fishing — techniques, gear, and trip vlogs
• Hunting — species-specific channels and gear reviews
• Camping & Bushcraft — gear, skills, and trip content
• Hiking & Backpacking — trail vlogs and gear guides

Set it up in FolderTube

1. Install FolderTube from the Chrome Web Store.
2. Click the purple FolderTube button on YouTube to open the sidebar.
3. Press the sync button to pull in every channel you follow.
4. Create the folders above and drag channels in based on the activity they mainly cover.
5. Open the Subscriptions page and filter by folder depending on which trip you're planning or gearing up for.

When subfolders earn their place

If fishing is your main activity, that folder tends to fill up fastest. Subfolders (Fishing > Freshwater / Saltwater, or Fishing > Gear / Technique) keep it useful once it's grown too large to scan in one pass.
