Get well soon, dude. Before ya know it, you'll be back near the water and tearin' 'em up. Personally, I've been too strapped for cash lately, but same... Living vicariously through Nick and other YT anglers has helped soften the blow.

@@618Fishing hey my name is luven big fan of your fishin videos and I love my fishin to.i would like you to try chicken hearts as a bait I would like to see if you get a big catch with that

[@russellwitter7408]

618 Fishing.... you're REAL good at filming the "experience" of fishing, the trip there....passing farm silos on the highway,,, tree seeds falling from the sky... etc.

[@davidnapper8097]

" The one that got away " , every fisherman has a few of those . Love catching big fish on ultra light tackle ! That was a nice Striper , agree with other comments , hybrid usually has more broken lines . Don't give up on the chicken livers , somewhere there's a deep , dark hole where ol whiskers has been hangin out for years , just waiting for you 👍👍

[@chrisb4206]

The big ones always hit the rig with the light line. It's like one of the basic laws of the universe. Awesome video. That hybrid was sweet.

[@jasonking3096]

that wasn’t a hybrid

[@kevinkane5911]

The great thing about Nick is he seems just as excited as he was with the first fish he ever caught in his life.

[@HomeyDuck]

That bass looked more like a Striper. The stripes, on hybrids, are usually broken, those seemed fairly consistent. It is early fall, time for them to start feeding voraciously. There are probably much bigger ones, in that pool, feeding, before winter comes.

[@MrLobstermeat]

Ya man I was thinking the same thing... Plus the body length to height did not scream wiper. Good fish tho!

[@oldschoolhawking8191]

I agree.

Great video and thank you! My boyfriend and i have been watching your videos for about a year now, pretty sure weve seen them all 😀, but it better than anything else on t.v.! You crack us up and your enthusiasm is epic! We are getting ready to move from California to Pennsylvania in a few days, we plan on getting a tandem kayak when we get there and watching more of your videos! I have to say, my favorite video is when you were fishing with alex in the ocean and caught a shark! See ya later buddy 😀

Whenever i miss a big bite i normally leave the bait right after the miss because they might come right back for it especially if they did not feel that hook! Awesome video! 💪🏽

[@kmatt27]

Absolutely love the music and edits of nearby scenery in ur vids Nick! Keep it up!

[@kingbowlcutsiphone6440]

Would you ever collab with marling baits?

Fish on, fish on, nice monster hybrid bass. You got your monster today, Congrats.

[@stevehofer3482]

I like how your videos don’t always end up with catching a lunker. It makes it more realistic.

[@chankay9815]

I always watch your videos while waiting for the fish to bite. Very entertaining and also i have learned some new tricks

Great fishing show, always waiting for new ones. Like those rod holders where did you find those?

[@chrisrus53]

Those wipers look like a ton of fun! I had my first run in with poison ivy last month. Pick up some Zenfel to have on hand. It help pull all the junk out of the rash and dries it up quick. It also does a good job of relieving the itch.

[@JoeBeanBob]

you should maybe do a catch and cook :D

[@darrellcox4812]

Nick if not mistaken that is shoal creek and I've caught fish from its source to the kaskaskia River. There's some nice holes from that spot to route 16. Big gar bowfin carp flathead bass bluegil and so on. Try exploring a little further downstream you won't be disappointed

[@TheMcDannells]

[@stevosmitty]

Don't know when you were here, but the stumps were still smoldering on the day you posted. Good to know there are good fish in the creek. Saw the episode when you got the bowfin here, too.

4:37 fish jumps top left screen. you get a hookup same spot next frame.

[@handy-capoutdoors4063]

Oh, the fish stories you will be able to tell to your grand kids, 😆. I'm sitting in a fast food packing lot, watching trucks towing bass boats at least 2 per minute in the heavy traffic 😀. Your videos really make me want to go fishing with fridge leftovers. Sadly I can bearly move right now and I couldnt lift a pole let alone reel in a fish right now... 😪 I'm going tomarrow for sure. Even if I can't move til Monday afterwords lol. Ya know, I was thinking 🤔 with how muddy and dirty the waters are alot of the time in your videos, why not step up the line? I personally like 20lb berkley vanish fluorocarbon. It is flexible and I've hauled branches and logs that had to be over 20lbs out of places I've fished with it. I use 65lb on my heavier rods for bottom fishing. Straight braid. I end up either hauling in something or having to cut it. And it dosent like to cut 🤣 Heavier line might save you from break offs.

[@618Fishing]

Thank you for the support! That’s a great question. I havnt re-evaluated my line choice in quite some time and I think it might be time to explore some different options. You bring up a good point with the water clarity. Good luck on your fishing adventure!

[@robertpage3195]

Yet another week of lockdown hopefully not for much longer. Was happy to see the latest video. Thank you. Never knew what a spillway was till I started watching

[@michaelsimich8494]

Bro, you should seriously consider switching to braided line. You miss alot of fish on those long hook sets with that mono you use. You will like the sensitivity and strength the braid has. Tight lines!

[@baitsinthewater95]

Bigger reels too. Still very entertaining though. Great video.

[@Tallnerdyguy]

The line sounds like braid going through the guides

[@Tallnerdyguy]

@@baitsinthewater95 with proper line and drag, the 25lbs of drag is plenty

Don't you love second chances?! Nice catch!

[@bushfishncook2128]

Man how fun are big fish on ultra light, I mainly fish with light gear just to have a better fight 🎣 So glad you noticed my comment finally with the boiled eggs soaked in cinnamon for 24 hours, Some advice for when you try them... They are a little hard to keep on a hook but here in Australia I use them to catch Murray cod and catfish, Once I can travel again I will be putting some videos up on my channel, Tip; the best way to use the eggs is from a kayak and just drop them gently to the bottom and then move back from the baits, If you are careful you can actually cast them, heaps of people who use them get the bait netting you can buy for soft baits... Awesome video as always Nick hopefully I can make some videos half as decent as you one day 👍🏼

[@seanspike1234]

Thanks for being awesome , love the vids , broken leg right now so I gotta live thru the videos , would you consider doing a rig setup video ?

[@618Fishing]

Get well soon! I try and touch on my gear/rigs lightly in my videos, but I might go a little more in depth in the future. Thanks for watching!

I would've loved to have seen that fish that spooled out and broke the line. Man if that was a bass, wow.
