I consider the Grand River my home water and fish it and it’s tributaries regularly. I am glad you had the chance to enjoy it!

[@samuelkooiman3005]

Ever tried crockery creek

[@websterroger]

@@samuelkooiman3005 Never have, actually. I think part of that stream is a trout stream but it’s a bit far from where I live in the Lansing area for a day-trip. I do fish Prairie Creek near Ionia and Fish Creek near Carson City for trout

[@nickmeingast9557]

@@websterroger is there a public access point on prairie?

[@strongholdcc1396]

Sounds like you’ve got lots of subs from here in West Michigan. Glad to see you fish here locally!

[@Tightt88]

Go to Muskegon Lake!

[@christopherwood2290]

Two of the nicer guys on KZbin fishing. Always a pleasure to watch their videos. No screaming, yelling or drama. Just fishing.

[@codeyyoung6053]

Who is screaming and yelling lol?

[@arthurworden5368]

Glad you had fun in my home state I fish for pike and bass so how your trip was good .. just watched the first video

[@Philc231]

Maaaaan, John welcome to te only place to be in the summer . The Grand River is great but you ain’t seen nothing yet . I hope you get a chance to get up north .East Grand Traverse Bay is some of the best fishing in the world . Salmon ,trout,bass,Cisco,whitefish . All the inland lakes are active , perch,pike,bass,walleye. You’ll be looking for a summer place to live . Welcome .

[@timothyturner2165]

That is where I grew up...farther west on the river near grand haven. I Always bring some fishing rods when I visit Michigan.

[@AaronHuntFishing]

This is like when you go to see your favorite band and one of your other favorite musicians joins in for a set! Awesome to see two of my favorite KZbinrs hanging out and catching some fish together. THANK YOU for making the drive.

[@Mezmo2010]

Loved this video, you guys look like you had a great day. We fish the Grand often and I'm glad you got a chance to enjoy some sport in our neck of the woods.

[@zacharydebold4234]

Fishing my hometown spots

[@FishingPleasures]

Oh man I know this area so well, I used to fish there all the time when I lived in Michigan. One of my favorite spots. I've caught a 20 inch Smallie, a 36 inch Pike, a 9lb Steelhead and so much more in that river. Also I see you like jerky, if you ever go back, visit Gary's Country Meats in Lowell, they have awesome jerky, snack sticks and smoked sausages, including smoked Andouille sausage that is probably the best ever. Man this was fun watching y'all fish my old stomping grounds.

[@hankwild8595]

Gary’s jerky is the best

[@davidbackstrom6181]

I grew up there also lots of nice small mouth. A buddy of mine caught 30" walleye upstream from the launch on night fishing walleye.

[@TheOutdoorConquest]

This river is on my bucket list here in MIchigan! Nice work! Awesome trip!

[@davidbackstrom6181]

I grew up fishing that area. If you really want to catch fish buy yourself a glass minnow trap and fish with minnows. 5 dozen minnows might be enough to get you up to the high banks two miles upstream from the launch.

[@TimHaunFishing]

You team up with one of my favorite youtubers the Online Outdoorsman and you break out the classic intro? What a good day.

[@lonnievanover6524]

It would be really cool to watch you crappie fish the grand river

[@codyreece7871]

Those pike are such a beautiful fish iv never got to see one in real life

[@jeremykelley2151]

I love that you finally got up to my neck of the woods. Grand River, Flat River. Pine River, Chippewa River, Muskegon River. All great fishing in Michigan. Lots of creeks and lakes to try also. Plenty of public waters to fish with loads of different species to catch. You'll definitely have a great time fishing up here.

[@randyblevins9489]

Beautiful river run, John. Ethan seems like a nice guy. His fishing style is very compatible to yours, kind of laid back, just picking up what you can. I like that in your usual videos. The tournament videos can get intense. Quite a few smallies, but the story of the day was the pike ! The topwater action was explosive ! This one is just the beginning. More good times to follow. Always be safe ! Randy B.

[@RoamingWhispers]

These videos with you and Ethan are the best!! I can only imagine how much fun you guys had if I’m having this kinda fun watching!!

[@ralphkidwell6526]

John, thank you for sharing such wonderful fishing trips I live my fishing trips through your journeys.

[@tylerkilmer8405]

The yum dinger will fill your stringer

[@poimendave9536]

John I am stoked that your fishing my home waters with Ethan. Seems like you both had a great experience on the Grand River near Lowell.

[@eabaskervill]

Love seeing some favorite KZbinrs come together like this.

[@byronrhamy1199]

Ionia Mich, Grand goes through town, so great video, awesome.

[@frankvaldez2769]

One of the best things to do with a friend, go to the lake or river and fish for hours. Great video!

[@anglerspursuit]

The river looks awesome to fish! Lots of different looks to work and nothing beats the topwater bites

[@broganmchighlander3564]

You need to fish Muskegon lake or Muskegon river from Croton dam for some serious Michigan fishing. The big smallmouth are in Lake Michigan right now.

[@jimmieevans7175]

Good luck guys catch some big ones

[@leemowers9395]

Fun day John, lots of great fish. thanks for sharing.

[@brianathern9154]

Now that looks like a river trip the way I experience in IL & WI. Nice to see you got a few pike too. River smallies up north have a never say die attitude in general. You guys were perfect fishing buddies. Blessings brother

[@uofm1334]

I'm from GR - nice to see you around my hometown!!!

[@roypeavy3542]

Looks like they were everywhere.Good catch.

[@lesterreaper9696]

Our family used to fish in Mich. caught pike, bass, walleye, king perch for several years great time John I know you will have fun.

[@GreatPlainsKayakAngler]

It looked like you guys had a great time together fishing. I’ve been looking forward to your video after this!

[@JeffGeraldFishing]

Nice fish John, good job on the pike 💪🏻

[@randyrat1747]

Great video! looking forward to the next few days - gotta love up nort fishin'!

[@missiondiscover]

One of the greatest fishing collaborations ever

[@Boomisthebestdogever]

If you fish in a certain spot you can catch pike like crazy that’s what me and my dad did their like 30 to 40 inches at this spot

[@j.j.savalle4714]

There is so many miles to the Grand River! Enjoy the water here in Michigan!

[@anthonymccall966]

love it thanks for all your videos

[@Philc231]

We fished steelhead last spring right downtown Grand Rapids . Amazing …..

[@cartershank8364]

Nice video, keep heading north! Got a ton of fishing spots back in the sticks just south of the bridge. I hope you make your way up here.

[@ericbaxter3487]

Two of my favorites, 2 upstanding dudes

[@lbarcelow_fishing]

Haha I know that exact boat launch in the thumbnail

[@justinmartin83]

I lived in Grand Rapids and Ionia I love this river so many smallmouth and walleye

[@tomsmietana61]

Glad you got up to Michigan to do some fishing

[@javasoccernut]

Yay! Mi! One day I will get back. Maybe Oct.

[@waterratlyle2590]

Great video man. Hope you have a safe trip back. I am going catch up on all these videos today.

[@huronjm3075]

nice love the grand and huron two best rivers

[@isaacscards3942]

I live 20 minutes away from there great river

[@jeremykelley2151]

One of the best lures to use in Michigan for catching northern pike is a red and white spoon with a silver back reeling at high speed. My PB was a 39.5" fishing from shore with that combo on 10# test and a 12# steel leader.

[@markbardusk9516]

Awesome video. I've never fished the Grand. Looks great!

[@johnbubbajohnson5630]

Cool video. Pretty Smallies and pretty northern Pike. They really colorful fish. God bless you both and your families. And travel safely John......🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊🙂😀

[@danawise5592]

Great collaboration with Mule Fishing!!

[@dillardfamilychannel4029]

That’s epic totally different terrain and new bodies of water I know u were stoked.

[@mikeboyce584]

That was a great shot at the end there John I would take that fishing day any day. Pike and smallies two great fish, fun to catch. Nice video beautiful location closer to my neck of the woods.

[@samuelwarden6285]

I was looking forward to your videos of this trip. I watched Ethans video on this first spot and I was patiently waiting on your upload lol. Glad to see you got your pike that was an awesome blowup. Reminded me of the Matt from NDYakAngler. 👊👍

[@jhcampbe]

The Grand is great water but there's too much pressure. You should have gone to the Shiawasse basin for some trophies smallies.

[@riverratfishing]

Wow, what a video. Some awesome fish. Can't wait for the next video.

[@LeviW133]

Nice video mister John love your videos keep up the good work and go catch some more big ones for us ,I'm going up there in a few weeks

[@CatchReleaseRepeat]

For anyone watching... buy some Mule jigs and plastics! They've been saving my butt all year long. Every time the bite dies or I can't figure it out, I tie on a 1/32oz mule jig with a donkeytail jr and we're back in business. I've caught so many fish this year thanks to Ethan. Mule products are the real deal!

[@aceboardtheangler5252]

John you could try shrink wrap to keep those yum dingers on longer. It even comes in clear

[@FishAnything]

That pike topwater blast was epic! Such a fun day on the water man. Can’t wait to see the next few videos 🤠👊🏽

[@NeedsMoreToys]

The bayous are where the best action is. Lots of catfish, crappie, bluegill too.

[@CarolinaBassHunter]

That was great. 👍👍

[@reelgoodfishin9621]

Hope your injoying your time in Michigan bro

[@hankwild8595]

Grew up with the Grand in my backyard. Never went fishing and got skunked. Fun river to fish. I didn’t know how spoiled I was.

[@Tightt88]

That’s a good pike. I love pike, pretty good fighters.

[@cliffhall5602]

sweet outro shot

[@richardstone5241]

New subscriber! Great channel. Fun to watch. Appreciate your faith in the Living GOD!!!

[@anthonymccall966]

[@SundayViewFishing]

Man I'm from this part of Michigan and live and fish in TN now! This is awesome bruh!

[@derekskater1996]

Just fished that same bank tonight , Kent county

[@stealon_musk]

I live on the Grand River in Canada and the fishing is just amazing here too! always love your videos!

[@outdoorsforachange]

The Grand River stretches into Ontario?

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

probably different river

[@stealon_musk]

@@CreekFishingAdventures No I believe it runs through Ontario aswell

[@akadwriter]

I grew up not far from the Grand...awesome man!!!

[@akadwriter]

@@leemowers9395 Ya duh! I am not older than 60....lol. I know it's a scam. But thanks man.

[@stevehogan8829]

When things get tough, go to the Hellgramite. . I'd love to catch some Pike but I'm never in the right location. Thanks John.. Enjoy the heck out of your vids. Stay Safe.

[@dklock275]

Try the Nikko Leech Morning Dawn up there……they love them!

[@samuelkooiman3005]

If you are ever in Michigan again try crockery creek

[@daneboro6847]

Pike are really good to eat.

[@daneboro6847]

Yup I just reported that one who tried to scam me, report all as asap and they will disappear.

[@bliamyaj]

Since your up north you have to go try fishing the great lakes smallies. Those guys are huge.

[@louv2425]

Nice fishing buddy 👍 👍👍...I actually have a sister that lives in Michigan, when I go visit I have to take my rod. Blessings

[@orendz7740]

Nice man. I had my best evening of fishing the other night. Was the funnest time.

[@nathanjablonski5280]

The fishing has been great out there this year I have been out there a lot this year

[@nathanjablonski5280]

@@leemowers9395 thanks 👍

[@ericharrison8950]

You definitely are the "Small Mouth King"! I live close to Tulsa OK and I don't know if I've ever caught a small mouth? Awesome video. Those Pikes are an interesting fish!

[@ericwakeman6665]

Dude I’m a short walk from that boat launch right now (at work) and it’s awesome welcome great spot!

[@franklynsalogga7012]

I live next to the Grand River lots of nice fishing 🎣🎣🎣🎣 in it glad you got to experience it what part was you on near Grand rapids? The looking glass and the Red cedar River is good fishing to they both connect to the Grand River

[@patrickhartman6818]

The rasin river is a great fishing river also

[@PuddleWalkersOutdoors]

Michigan is a bucklist destination. I would settle for a small creek off of St.Claire.

[@dancingwiththefish2644]

From around there

[@willhoward9865]

in Michigan but never fished the Grand Just bought a kayak so that might change.

[@TerpDerp]

My dude always hungry 😂

[@timmichael8280]

So close to me, would love to fish with you next time you come around!

[@PoopHeadProductions1]

I live just east of the grand River state park. Whereabouts did you guys drop in at? Great quality video guys!

[@BigBoss-yq8th]

Im going up to frankfurt this week for king salmon..

[@DarkSoulThieves]

We’ve got plenty of big rivers to fish here in Michigan, such as the Rouge River, the Thorneapple River and the Flat River. All great places to get good sized smallies depending on the location of the rivers you’re fishing.

[@scottsoucy6186]

Do you mean the Rogue River? The Rouge is just outside of Detroit.

[@DarkSoulThieves]

Yea, the rogue River near Rockford. That’s the one I meant lol

[@mattstephens8887]

That’s the river I fish. If you’re ever back and interested in some walleye…
