I Really Needed This Fishing Trip!!

[@KyleM_from_the_Ozarks]

Looks like a great time catching some chunky spots!

[@jimyacynych3823]

Hi John, I wrote to you once before about lampreys. I live in the grand rapids area of Michigan. lampreys are the bane of the great lakes fisheries and any time you encounter them, you need to do them in. Really enjoy your videos, they bring back good memories of those times when I did more fishing, but at least I can enjoy watching you fish.

[@Kantar10]

I live in the GR area too! Nice to see a fellow Michigander!

[@JohnExoo-up3di]

Grand Rapids, too. Ditto on the lampreys.

[@ericwakeman6665]

Great to see you John! I’m with you feeling energized by hopes for spring! Happy resurrection day brother!!

[@matthewlindsey7717]

Id love for you to make a trip back to Bowling Green. The weather has been unseasonably warm here in Kentucky. Its got the water temperatures up a little bit and thankfully the pre spawn bite is picking up.

[@odb233]

Where did he fish in BG? I go there some, got a daughter at WKU

[@samuelwarden6285]

I'm glad to see the bass are starting to turn on in the creeks and smaller rivers. I floated about a mile of a creek Sunday after church and caught a 14 inch smallie and around 10 rockbass. One of the rockbass weighed a pound. That was the biggest one ive caught in a long time. I caught most of the rockbass on the mule minnow and the smallie on the Zman trd craw. For only 3 hours of fishing i think it was a good trip. 👊👍

[@johnnyweaver1300]

A great time of fun!👍🎣

[@jeffnelson9420]

Good trip boys. For slower retrieve and more vibration try a Colorado blade spinnerbait. Better in murky water and night fishing. Thanks for sharing and have a Blessed Day!

[@TheTXAngler]

I really enjoy reading through the comments and seeing how different the fishing can be based on locations, even when fishing for the same species. I went out and did some bass fishing this past weekend, they were already up shallow and in pre spawn here in Texas, great video as always John!

[@ri-jm5tn]

Your audio is so good, feels like I’m on the river😁 I finally got on water on Monday. Water temp was low 40’s. Fishing painfully slow, I was able to get 4 cherry-lipped largemouth on swim baits and grubs. Like you, I needed that👍

[@mastersoutdoors7814]

Two of my favorite fishing KZbinrs , I always have loved that early spring right on the bank reaction bite 👍🏻. Great video !

[@kennythurston57.]

Glad you're back and enjoying the outdoors. Those straps are awesome, sure will look into them. Thanks and take care.

[@sethjohnsonoutdoors4055]

That slow motion release was INCREDIBLE!!!! Wooooooo weeeeeeeeeee!!!!

[@mikeboyce584]

What nice early bass. You guys had a great float. I'm happy with catching blue gill right now. Can't wait for the Small mouth to start Hitting.

[@timlacy2284]

John, Great Video and Great looking Bass too. Thanks for sharing. God Bless You.

[@josephpecoraro2788]

NICE kayak fishing John tell Alex if he has time to develop a lamp Ray mold or one of his lure making buddies I'd buy that soft plastic lure. Hope you guys have fun on your next tournament and catch 18 and 20 incher.

[@waterratlyle2590]

That was a great float with some really good fish. Well done, guys.

[@jeffjones4006]

Great vid, great catches. Weather in Missouri is changing everyday .

[@exclusivenerd1014]

Great fishing trip and I’ve been watching your videos for a while! I appreciate how you been using the buzzbait! I’m going to have to give them a try again!!

[@LarryJohnson7]

Good to see out having a good time catching fish. Been a struggle here in Ontario hopefully the temp goes up for us. Great video

[@davidrauschenbach6871]

Nice to see you two having a good day on the water. Hopefully your cough will clear up!

[@bartfoster1311]

Nice fish! I'm ready to hit the rivers again but just been hitting the lakes here. Got a 22 inch, 5 lber today out in the rain along with a few smaller ones. I'm looking forward to the fishing heating up!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

Nice!!

[@RobertxJenks]

Biggest bass I ever caught was in really cold water, it was an 8 pound 1 ounce large mouth, that was just over 20 years ago. The state record at that time was just a couple ounces more, been back to that spot but only caught a lot of small mouth and a few large mouth

[@Paul.Casteel]

Nice little river

[@TheFishinMortician]

Feels good to get out and get bit!

[@rayhollingsworth2588]

Looks like a great time👍

[@willtorbett6679]

Hey Jon I’m from your hometown but lived in middle Tn about 6 years but have some amazing spots around dekalb county to wade the creek and fish and also some all day floats that produce some huge fish would love to share these little creeks or collab

[@bobbyjohnson4734]

Great seeing you again *****

[@fishingwithhouse]

Great video , nice catches!

[@AlexRuddFishing]

The rain thwarted are plans this week but we will be back for our vengeance soon! 😂

I can’t wait to the next time we go here

[@f2dify]

Been watching your videos. Subscribed. Your intro and content are supreme! Also - is he on a crescent primo?

[@Paul.Casteel]

Early spring tge grand hog was right.

[@rayhart7501]

You need to get a power pole or a kayak with a spot lock trolling motor. Hint ,hint, old town kayaks. God bless.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

Power pole would have probably caused more problems in this stream, a lot of overhanging trees but I want to get one

I got some “stuff”. Brother we know you’re packing the Mtn. Dews!

[@MossyCreekOutdoors]

Great looking water, what kind of GoPro mount are you using for your Kayak?

[@OPOutddors75]

John wasted zero seconds after getting around that first little rapid to cast that lure with precision

[@CopleyintheCreek]

What's your rod/reel/line setup for the bait caster?

[@shephusted2714]

you should stop on shoals more and fish rapids - can be very productive spots - you will get tuned up as season progresses - you should make sure to kill the lamprays

[@austin27049]

“You should kill the lampreys” dude cmon. Know what you’re talking about before you spread crap like that. There’s 7 native species of lamprey in Tennessee. Why should you kill them?

[@ThatOutdoorsChannel]

" you should make sure to kill the lamprays" Bro what? Lampreys are a native species to Tennessee. Absolutely no reason to kill them.

[@michealvasquez2458]

What kayak is this?

[@MARKLOCKWOOD2012]

use the lampreys for bait out of curiosity

[@Paul.Casteel]

Sir look at the Calendar it's still winter.

[@kevinpowdrill199]

What is your discount code for discount tackle?

What was the water temp?

Not sure but cool. Probably around 50

[@trudyeagan8160]

[@roymccomb8749]

Love the videos John but I really wish you wouldn’t hold those fish out of the water so long. The moment you take them out they’re holding their breath and there’s a greater chance that they may not survive.

[@scottbradley5326]

John, I have always loved your videos. And I don’t usually make negative comments on videos, but I hope you will receive some constructive criticism. The one fish you caught just before going over that shoal you kept out of the water for quite a long time. I know I’m not telling you anything you don’t know… so let it suffice to say that catch and release should be more focused on the release… It’s not good for those fish to be kept out of the water that long. I’m referring to the one that you had laying in your boat as you went through the shoal, and then pulled off to show the camera. I’ve made this observation many many times while watching your videos, but that particular one seemed more excessive than I’ve observed in the past. Again, not trying to be negative, just mindful of what is appropriate for catch and release.

[@dw6506]

Have you got the water? Water my butt where’s the Mountain Dew. John you have got to get your priorities right

[@PAYDAY505]

first non bot comment

[@JefferyDollars]

I cant fish with other people cause ima hater 😅

[@dennismullens41]

You could further monetize your fishing channel by offering a subscription service detailing where you’re fishing. I’m not suggesting giving away your secret “honey holes,” but knowing where facilities for launch and take-out are located would be nice.

[@AR_Outdoorsman]

Please do not entertain this. Go find your own way bro. That's the fun part about it. It's not supposed to be easy.

[@chrisdeering1120]
