Kayaking and Fly Fishing for Smallmouth Bass on a SCENIC River in Oklahoma!

I spend two days KAYAKING and FLY FISHING for SMALLMOUTH bass on a SCENIC river in Oklahoma. I set up my camper for the weekend and spend the weekend floating and fly fishing on the Upper Illinois River in Oklahoma. It's a HOT 100 degree summer day, and there is no better place to be than kayaking in the cool water, enjoying the beautiful scenery, and fly fishing for these Ozark smallmouth bass!

Awesome video! Beautiful River! Do you mind sharing the group that was two hours late? I won’t use them in the future.

[@OutdoorHighlife]

Thanks! Yea, it sure is! Sorry man, but I'd rather not share who they were, because they are actually pretty accommodating. Just think they may have a long night!

Nick, Really appreciate the video. Once the heat breaks, I like to float my drift boat on the UIL until late fall. The smallies are fantastic on this river. Thanks again!

[@OutdoorHighlife]

@@cscottwhitman4483 Thank You! My pleasure! Floating down the UIL in a drift boat in the fall- that's a good day!
