[@MattMan715]

I’ve only been watching 618 for about a year No sponsors no bullshit no Collaborations just a one man crew fishing and videoing. Very likable dude keep up the great work Nick. You are the only KZbin fisherman my wife will watch with me she says it’s like watching a movie. Oh and the respect you show the fish is fantastic

[@mattiaciampalini]

You're forgetting the best music BY FAR out there!

[@aarons2moody]

I think he's got a side job in Hollywood.

[@cukman1643]

Yeah he is kind of stupid tho. He uses like 1 pound baits on a medium action rod. He also sets circle hooks like J hooks and is overall really bad at catfishing.

[@MattMan715]

@@cukman1643 dude you came to the wrong spot and wrong person to talk crap . Nick is a great fisherman that loves what he does he is truly enjoyable to watch. Take your worthless trash talk elsewhere

[@NewDivideOutdoors]

When you can turn baitfishing from the bank into dang good fishing content, you’ve got skills!!💯

[@thedangler1371]

Bank fishing is what makes his content great. Too many guys focusing on boring sport fish. He likes the curious fish that most closed minded anglers consider trash.

[@danperez6685]

This is definitely my favorite fishing channel on YT. His filming style makes me feel like I am standing on the bank fishing with him.

[@terrychambers6726]

It is such a treat to see someone who keeps his fishing & language clean. Thank you for sharing.

[@spitzshrike5135]

That paddlefish is an insane catch, Nick, major congratulations on that one! You should come out to the Chesapeake sometime, maybe hit up some invasive snakehead in addition to crazy striped bass, bluefish, and catfish.

[@steveklick]

The paddle fish often break their bills on the rocks either through what they've been through already or sometimes during the fight when your reeling them in.

[@paynekaufmann403]

You’re honestly such a good guy for giving that Buffalo a chance to swim off

[@hunngaming8652]

Agreed

[@justinviscome8305]

Then put it out of it's misery like an even better guy 👍

[@Curry_Prodz18]

Best. Fishing videos every day and keep up the content OMG THANKS FOR THE HEART I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM YOU

[@thebassboys9779]

Best fisherman on KZbin! Have a merry Christmas everyone!

[@mob9800]

[@EditzByjimmy]

[@lazycrow7622]

@TheBassBoys appreciate you for the support and I will keep you all tuned.

[@rachelfoster7626]

Nice productive spillway! Big fish! I've never seen a Spoon-Bill before, cool looking fish.

[@Kratos73]

For i adore steel, I get goosebumps whenever you cut your bait on STONES 😭😂 Thank you for ...YOU, bringing us lots of fun👍

[@yamati150]

I subscribe to a few channels, but 618 Fishing is one of the few that I not only set up with a notify, but look forward to them!! Great channel and great video!!!

[@albertpeterson7134]

618 Anothet Good Day Of Fishing Thank's For Taking Me Along. Merry Christmas And A Happy New Year

[@thanossavv_adventures]

When you wait for a new video...well this means 618 Fishing is one the best channels on KZbin.Also Happy Holidays...and merry Christmas

[@miguelchavez601]

Nice catch Nick!!, Oklahoma state record for a spoonbill is 164 lbs. mine is 30 lbs. lol

[@618Fishing]

Holy smokes!

[@shelbyherring92]

Not watched to end yet, I heard, "Looked like a shark tail" I'm guessing either sturgeon or spoonbill. Update: Heard prehistoric, still could be either... Update 2: Saw the head, yup. A spoonbill. Nice, bro! Nice.

[@bakedpotato7858]

Lol same!

[@ericmoraski9102]

Congrats buddy!! Your on a roll !!!

[@sethnicol]

Nick posting , The Christmas gift we all needed 🤙🌲 keep on keeping on brotha!

[@brianeisenga882]

Another good day out. Thanks for taking us along again. Stay safe out there. 🎣

[@BadlydrawnBen]

Awesome day fishing 👍 618 and marling baits would be the be the most chill ever

[@joelmcmahan7386]

BUDDY, another fun video. Always makes a clear video with great editing. Merry Christmas to 618 family and fans. 🎣🎥🥇👍

[@harti81269]

He definitely puts lots of effort into making the videos.

[@Bearskimethod]

The weather is harsh already.. nice catch 💪🏻 I can’t wait go get out there 🌎❤️

[@MrGray-dx8sw]

After being a little optimistic about this channel a little over a year ago this is one that I came to love. Nice work.

[@davidanderson7802]

working for conservation and sampling paddlefish(spoonbill) has made me fall more in love with the species, and soon as you called it a dinosaur i knew you had a paddlefish on, love the videos nick, i hope you come back to the place you caught your first brown

[@140kittykat]

My thoughts were bowfin or a gar, so it was a nice surprise that it wasn't.

[@flyinbrianz22]

Merry Christmas Nick. Thanks for all the great fishing adventures!

[@remingtonlanenga2524]

Best Christmas gift so far! An awesome episode of 618 Fishing. Thanks Nick!

[@350mack]

You and lost lakes post some real quality content. Probably in the top 5 on KZbin. Keep up the great content. Merry Christmas and a happy safe new year!!

[@davemanton5774]

Never knew what spillways were till i came across your videos, I'm in the UK and love your vids . ManyThanks ...

This place is magical, it has a lot of big fish, you are an excellent fisherman, Congratulations may God bless you always!👍🎣🐟🐠🥰 Hugs and good fishing!

[@dwt7694]

We are actually fishing the north end of that lake for crappies in the morning. We’ve been tearing them up!!! A lot of 11”-13” fish.

[@peterderidder9922]

The end of youre vids always comming to soon, seing youre vids makes me happy.

[@Drewdown2002]

Just getting my channel started, I'm a 71 year old disabled male, just got a new mobility scooter so I can finally get to the water after having to take the city bus to one spot to fish in a wheelchair., love your channel Dude!

[@davidfrancis6947]

Merry Christmas! we weren't expecting fresh 618! made our day

[@danielbushta8119]

My heart was racing while you were landing that Spoonbill. The music was a great choice to add to the suspense.

[@darius-rospinning]

Great vid' as usual! So cool that you have so many species within those spillways! In Romania (where I'm from) the poachers destroyed every single spillway - we only find PB's on private lakes now unfortunately...

[@jimbot.4539]

You should try bowfishing the main spillway on the other side of the parking lot that leads to your spot. Tons of Asian carp there in the summer. Also there is good walleye/sauger fishing at Carlyle and shelbyville dams in the spring time

[@Matador50]

Merry Fish-mas Nick and fellow fisherpersons!

[@taylorelizabeth6413]

Thats my baby!! ♥️♥️ I love you

[@618Fishing]

I love you too 😘😘

[@dougiemac8417]

You're so calm while you fight the monsters!! And even more so when they get away. Love your spirit!!!

[@scotta.blanchat]

Killer stuff, man. Please continue showing us.

[@slim_pickins6393]

We used to snag spoonbills at the roller dams on the Mississippi in the quad cities. Some we caught were nearly 70 lbs.

[@kingbowlcutsiphone6440]

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to everyone.

[@charleskonkus653]

you too bro

[@jussdank]

Legendary catch, my friend. Keep up the superior content

[@aylife4557]

The beard is coming in nicely! Just like these videos!

[@AOIbis]

Spoonbill looked awesome, nice suprise.

[@blobfish2893]

I think we can all appreciate the rubber duck in the truck

[@tombombadil6591]

Best fishing vids! My week long highlight! Keep up the Amazing work Nick!

[@deltoid4]

I would love to go fishing with this guy. From the UK here.

[@BatColonyEvictor]

Great episode Nick! Love watching them when we have snow and ice in Michigan

[@1mlannen]

Thank you for trying to save that fish

[@robt9466]

Thank you Nick, another great video. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@chrissites6200]

So glad to see you back at this spot. I was really hoping to see you back at this spot over the summer and got super excited seeing you back on this one!

[@briansnodgrass4264]

We used to catch spoon-pill in the Red River about 1000 feet from dam..we fished the Oklahoma side. One of the guys in our group hooked one that was easily a 7ft…line broke. It was tangled in trot lines..some other guys in a john boat tried to help us…it was larger than their boat.

[@arthurbarraza5456]

Great holiday gift...thanks Nick...Happy holidays

[@mattkent1570]

Nick you landed some studs in this video congratulations.

[@chuckjenkins4348]

Hey Nick. Great channel. Been watching for sometime now. You’ve helped me during my times of home bound health needs so I want to thank you for the last few years and to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas. And good luck on all your future fishing adventures.

[@Kratos73]

Hope ya got well again...god bless ya, and greets from far germany

[@618Fishing]

I really appreciate you watching and I hope you have a happy new year!

[@stonewalljackson5692]

Well.......General Grant......very unusual place to appear

[@geoffreyjones2000]

I love the ultra light the most, sir

[@chrisb4206]

Merry Christmas, to you, your family and all the vast network of 618 fans, Nick.

[@larvaassirala1789]

What an amazing fish! Great job Nick!

[@muskarenie]

Ahoy, ever considered tossing the main rod in the hot spot of the spillway? Often it seems like "lets just toss away this *whatever big bait it is* somewhere no fish ever finds it and then ultra light fish the best spot with a nightcrawler" :P

[@WestCoastShamble]

Your B film is artistic and captivating, great production! Congrats on the new PB 😲

[@jasonhubbard4497]

I'm heading to your area this summer hitting two special lakes and visiting family. Hope I run across you while I'm there. Like watching you fish kinda how I do it save the pork loin and turkey leg lol.

[@seanparchim9165]

Merry Christmas Nick and family⛄☃️🎄🎄🎄

[@benmorris1163]

The last fish that nick lost- “To the right, to the right, to the right, to the r- wall. Well I guess To the left m, to the left , to the left, to the l- Another wall. Well screw let’s just go up the tunnel.”

[@codyblouch3829]

[@ericap1098]

Great video, and awesome catches. Since you catch so many and I hear that they're good, I'd love to see a silver carp catch and cook. Happy holidays!

[@patrickparker36]

You are the best channel on you tube, you don’t usually catch Spoonbills like that.

[@MissionaryInMexico]

Very nice. That spoonbill was amazing. I'd love to catch one of those just to see what it tastes like, then catch more to try to develop a personal best.

[@zackareyfox2516]

Bravo thanks for the adventure Nick can’t wait for the next keep on dangling

[@Spoonyforky]

Those Spoonbill’s are awesome! Great video as always! Keep em coming Nick!

[@MurphRocks86]

[@guitarpicker1393]

Merry Christmas to all my fellow fisherman out there. Tight lines for 2022 🎣

Nice job landing the spoonbill! Have a great Christmas Nick!

[@joerosa170]

Greetings from Oregon. What a great looking fishing spot. I bet your going to catch em up. Good luck. You might catch a monster.

[@bassinmike8478]

Man that was a monster fish the paddle fish thing the fight on the carpet was amazing another awesome video I need to try the jig with the warm there’s tiny spillways in my area that I’m trying to finish this winter

[@stonewalljackson5692]

[@mrshortymyfriendjimphelps1384]

Merry Christmas Nick. Love your videos.

[@DOSHIELD]

Nice little Spoonbill. Cool to see so many different kinds of fish in one location.

[@MegaYangman]

Very productive little spillway!!

[@iangriff459]

great video Nick.....I look forward to Thursday nights for your videos , its usually around midnight in the uk when your video turns up. Keep up the good work ;)

[@addicted2fishing119]

I’m a big fan out here in California…if you ever watch fellow KZbin fisherman there’s one called “The Perch Jerker” and I recently won his Meet #10 fishing tournament with a 27” halibut using the techniques from your channel!!! If you want to skip to my part I’m at 11:45! Thank you and Merry Christmas 🎄🎁☀️😎🎣🤙🏼

[@ronmarchis5553]

Another great enjoyable video.! Merry Christmas.

[@geraldwise5378]
