[@pabllam8017]

I have decided that since my birthday is next week on Tuesday the 12th I am going to order your sweatshirt for myself. I will be 74. Old but still a fisherwoman every chance I get. Thank you for your videos, I like them all. Stay safe.

[@RiverCertified]

That is super kind of you. I hope you like the sweatshirt! Happy early birthday!

[@jessiecastle8789]

Thinking about finding open water this winter am.from Nebraska any idea

[@USAF-SF]

Really enjoy your videos, would love to see you do a few about your boat and how you've personalized it, as well as talk about your tackle and rigging... Thanks Spencer...

[@pigsandapples]

Really enjoyed that! Always love the bait fishing segments and seeing you work out the big fish/under barge was awesome.

[@RiverCertified]

Glad you enjoyed it man. I need to include the bait fishing more often. Especially the bobber fishing. It's fun to edit.

[@goodjonoutdoors5728]

I'm going out in the morning. Gonna try hot dogs wrapped with bacon. Go Cubs !

[@riverrat988]

Those light rods are a blast. I have been using Ugly Stik pro lites. Awesome channie rods. Great video as always

[@RiverCertified]

I bet they're a good time for channel rats. I miss the old ugly sticks that used to have that nice bend.

[@CottagebumHeavyHauler]

​@RiverCertified I'm digging the GX2 Ugly Stiks. 9' Heavy casting, and 9' Med Heavy Spinning. Both models have awesome actions, and will cast 3+ oz with ease.

[@jfranthefishinman]

Spencer, you are the man

[@RiverCertified]

I have my moments on both ends of the spectrum haha

[@billcotton1551]

Really nice flathead on the light tackle! That had to be a blast fighting it.

[@RiverCertified]

It was so much fun. Hopefully get the chance to do it again. Thanks for watching.

[@thomasreppond1768]

Thank you for the video Spencer see you Monday

[@RiverCertified]

Glad you enjoyed it man. Have a good week.

Liked it as always

Thanks man

[@ricksimon277]

Looks like it is starting to cool off there a bit. Wish it would cool off here. Suppose to next week. Fish seem to be very active in Iowa this time of year. Great episode!

[@RiverCertified]

It really is. Next week there's even a day in the 60s. Falls definitely my favorite time of year. Thanks for watching!

[@CuriousOne31]

Years ago, we used to pull some monsters out from under the grain barges at the Cargill plant in Memphis.

[@RiverCertified]

I bet they're still there. Thanks for watching!

You have my respect

[@RiverCertified]

I appreciate that

[@catchnamericawithjc7337]

So what u think about livescope under those barges. Sharp hooks to ya.

[@RicardoHaruoIriguti]

It’s really nice when it’s a complete video like that! From Bait fishing and a few small ones to a big old angry drag screaming fish! And it ends with a nice outdoor meal. Couldn’t be better, Spencer 👏👏👏

[@RiverCertified]

I'm glad you enjoy that. It's my favorite story to tell. Thanks a ton man!

[@RiverCertified]

I appreciate the hell outta ya man. Thanks for doing what you do. You're a hell of a lot tougher than me. Hope you find some dandies!

Blessings 🙌🏿 KANSAS CITY IS WATCHING 👀

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks Brian!

[@fishingnightnday]

First: the evil giggle at 19:40...you are my people. Second: Dumb question Du Jour, why do the drift sock need a buoy? I understand it for my kayak anchor, I can disconnect and come back to it etc... Is it to keep it near the surface?

[@RiverCertified]

Haha that's funny. As far as the drift sock goes, I'm not positive, but I assume it's to keep it at the surface and less likely to hang up on anything on the bottom.

[@JoseManuel-lj4dk]

How you ever tasted el milagro tortillas? to me there the best, great video Spencer Blessings 🙏🙏🙏

[@RiverCertified]

Not that I know of. I'm definitely a tortilla fan though. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mattwiederholt7258]

Man here in NE I have a dam that loads up with unlimited goldeye. I’m gonna try to fish one live this fall for flathead, can’t wait. They are pretty big like 12-15”ers would be exciting

[@RiverCertified]

Very jealous. I'm sure a big flathead would mow one of those down.

[@pumagaming8936]

nice video

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks

[@jasonrunyon2663]

Awesome video!!!!! What type of knot do you tie on your rigs? Thanks for all the great videos!

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks man! I mainly snell my hooks and use a uni knot for the rest of it.

Thank you very much

[@Oluvaschneegas2424]

Your welcome spencer

[@derekv8534]

Grain barges always hold a lot of fish. Not sure if that’s what those were or not, but if you see a grain barge you can almost guarantee there will be catfish around them.

[@Theatdrummermix]

Barge fishing is always good never know if you gonna hook into a 5lber or a 35lber

[@RiverCertified]

Agreed man. The anticipation is pretty darn fun.

[@WesternKyOutdoors]

Boy that was a nice cqtfish

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks a bunch man

[@pazcodigital]

I like that Citrix reel and rod. I’m guessing it’s a 7’6” medium heavy rod? Pretty sure I’m gonna start referring to my coworkers as river eats with no explanation given.

[@RiverCertified]

Haha that's great. The rod is actually a medium. Keeps me on my toes when I hook a good one.

[@jamespalmer4727]

In about an hour you already have 2000 views. It might be a curse I don't know, but I would think you would be on one of the outdoor channels.

[@RiverCertified]

I don't know much about how TV works. I thought about trying it, but youtube is fun because I can edit it how I want. Thanks for watching!

[@raygillem4768]

Wax worms, meal worms or crickets are the best mooneye baits.

[@dan-o9746]

You got a Flathead? Wear a hat and nobody will know! I like the big structure fishing videos a lot. Below dams and around barges and bridge supports. Good stuff

[@RiverCertified]

That one actually made me chuckle a bit. Glad you enjoy those kinda videos especially because I like fishing that way.

This River 🐀 rat is loading the canoe going after flathead and i see a notification for River Certified. Now if i could catch a 40lb+ id be in heaven tonite! Thanks Spencer

[@RiverCertified]

Good luck out there man!

[@james4598]

I have 80lbs braid that color and close to that size ?

[@RiverCertified]

Nice

[@attitudeadjusted9027]

Goldeye and Mooneye are excellent. We use alot of live drum and carp under them barges. You can bounce cut bait alot farther under them barges with 3/4 and 1/2 ounce weights weve found. We would have loaded up them eater flatties for the freezer 🤠. You're gaining. Awesome vid and keep your powder dry and your pantry stocked young man 💪😎🙏🏻

[@RiverCertified]

Current was so slow I couldn't even get a 1/4 to slide under them. Drought is getting gross. I had a hell of a day on the crick today though. 5 biggest weighed 265. I felt spoiled to say the least. I appreciate the hell out of all the support. I mean it.

Never fish on the head of anchor fleet asking for trouble

[@RiverCertified]

What's the issue I might run into?

[@mrmarcusbarentt]

@RiverCertified it's all good in slow water and slack water just can be a bad deal in sweep current. If any boat troubles current could suck boat under a rake barge

[@stevenstroud19]

I learned a lot by just going to lakes and rivers to watch other fisherman do their thing. Most people are cool about you asking questions. Otherwise watch every fishing video you can find about the species you want to pursue. God bless n be safe. Oh watch out for idiots and snakes.
