[@RicardoHaruoIriguti]

That’s what I call lots of fun! Here in Brazil we can’t use cast net in freshwater, so, it’s kind of hard to go fishing without bait like you, but it’s definitively a funny adventure. I was missing that so looking good fish! I’m gonna try a recipe like yours! Thanks for sharing with us, Spencer!

[@RiverCertified]

That's surprising. I don't know much about fishing in Brazil though. I definitely recommend the cornmeal breading. It gives all fish a super nice crunch. Thank you for watching!

[@TheDetroitman20]

Cook and catch are my favorite. Thanks as always for sharing brother!! 🍺👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾🙂💯

[@RiverCertified]

Hell yes! Thanks for always watching!

Thanks man. Hope you enjoyed the video!

[@matthewjenson9626]

Great video. Good to see you out on the kayak again. Always a bonus to catch something when youre fishing

These are the videos I always look forward too because you’re authentic and it’s much appreciated.

[@RiverCertified]

Glad you enjoy them. Thanks for watching.

[@dextersgarden404]

Thank you for the kayak video, my guy! Absolutely love this stuff! The ones where you go home and cook up some gourmet are still my favorites, though :)

[@timothymilam732]

Always a pleasant time catching supper, as is anything cooked outdoors that much better. Glad to see you taking the simplistic approach to ones objective, as it brings it into everyone's realm of achievement. Stay safe be well, and sure have missed ole Woody this season.

[@JacobAdams-py5vd]

You probably don't look at the comments too much. I'm sure you get plenty of them but just curious about the small rivers a couple of them look familiar. I'm from Iowa. I grew up with Sam. Thanks for the inspiration man. Doing it like other people wish they could..

[@chasingcatfish7236]

good times! 🎣 😎

[@EASTSIDERIDER707]

After 3 years of drought California has plenty of reservoir storage and river flow, but the fishing is still weak. I’ve been skunked at my usually productive catfish spot all year. I’m bank fishing for bait at the moment. It’s slow though. Still enjoying your videos while I wait for my rod to bend.

[@EverythingKentucky]

Been waiting all day for this to drop! Hell yeah!

[@RiverCertified]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@riverrat988]

Sometimes are best fishing is low water. Great video

So true about em heading to current during low water on the little cricks. Id love to have some of those for the freezer. Looked tasty. Fry some in bacon grease and then poor the left over grease over some dandelion greens and BAM. Great vid and keep your powder dry and your pantry stocked young man 💪😎🙏🏻

That gets my mouth watering. I missed out on Dandelions this year. Hopefully not next year. Thanks for watching sir!

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

Spencer the commentary is your strength. You were either an only child or home schooled thru college. 😂 when you consider this is a majority monologue you do a great job. You rarely repeat yourself. That’s cool.

[@RiverCertified]

I literally just say the thoughts on my head. I'm also wired a little different. Add those together and it things get odd haha

[@adrianthayer4591]

Scoop out a shallow depression for your stove and use the sand to form a wind break. Put a tarp or a jacket over the wind break otherwise sand will blow into your pan. It helps to have the stoves base support.

[@shadetreemechanic2308]

Hell yeah, a good ol kayak vid

[@Retiredcop052]

Hey Spencer …… Sorry for this fking Novel..😂. I’m still pumped!? I don’t know if I told you that I worked part time for the State Environmental Police. So I sent my video and pics of the Chanel cat I caught to the state DEP fisheries for identification. The DEP fisheries officer wanted my location and told me that was a great catch and very few channel cats have been reported being caught in the Housatonic River. He was glad that they are in there. I have never caught a River Minster like that. Spencer, you are correct about the fight. Took about 5 minutes just to get him in sight. I was wondering if it was a huge pike which are very common in this river. Northern Pike get up to 40-50 inches. Anyways, when I finally saw it, I saw the white belly and i adrenal glands just started pumping. After another 5, after he wore out, I actually jumped in the River to grab my beast. I was not going to lose him on the bank. I owe my biggest caught fish from watching you! Learning about what you use, the rig setups, the areas to fish. I caught about 50 catfish this season from 1 - 7 pounders …. However, channel cats are not prominent in the Housatonic River. On the other side of Connecticut, in the Connecticut River, they are stocked by the state fisheries. You the man!! Your videos motivated me out of bed , fight my disabilities and get out catfishing. I have many days of catching nothing and giving it all up. I come home aggrieved and defeated. After taking a few days off, and watch your videos and I get re-motivated. Like I said, I’m not just a typical sub!! You know my situation. I wish I could of sent you more money after the larceny of your generator, but my police disability pay sucks. Now I know how the military vets feel …. Awesome video glad you caught channel cats…. My channel had the same body type, however it had a black top. Could not believe the length. Like a torpedo !, Dan

[@RiverCertified]

Super happy for you. A channel like that is special anywhere, but it's down right crazy to catch it somewhere they aren't suppose to exist. Hope you keep having fun out there. It ain't about the catching, at least if you aren't trying to.make a living on KZbin haha

[@Retiredcop052]

[@lynetteanddennisjones3490]

My hubby Dennis and I been fishing a small river here in Northeast Arkansas, Current River. We live in maynard and only have to travel about 8 miles.
